The Gui clan is one of the most legendary local troops in modern history, they are brave and good at war, and they are also the strongest local troops in which era, known as the Guangxi Wolf Soldiers.
In 1921, the Cantonese army invaded Guangxi and destroyed the forces of the old Gui clan Lu Rongting, at this time Shen Hongying and Li Zongren took the opportunity to send troops to attack Lu Rongting, and after the defeat of the army, Lu Rongting fled to Vietnam and then went to live in Shanghai. He has since left power. After that, Li Zongren eliminated Shen Hongying's forces and unified Guangxi, and from then on, the new Gui forces led by Li Bai controlled all of Guangxi.
Of course, in the new Gui faction, Li Zongren, Bai Chongxi, Huang Shaohu, and called the three giants of the Gui clan, today Xiaobian will introduce to you, the fourth person of the Gui clan, he ruled Guangxi for 19 years, and finally no one turned to him, he is Huang Xuchu.
Huang Xuchu, a native of Rong County, Guangxi, whose father was a Xiucai in the late Qing Dynasty. Therefore, from a young age, Huang Father attached great importance to the education of Huang Xuchu, and he grew up to study in Rong County Simple Normal School.
In 1911, the Xinhai Revolution broke out, the Qing Dynasty was overthrown, and Fenfen everywhere held high the banner of righteousness. At this time, Huang Xuchu no longer had the heart to study in the normal school, so he abandoned literature and took up arms, and then was admitted to the Guangxi Army Accelerated School, where he was still a classmate of Li Zongren. He excelled in school and was soon sent to the Beijing Army University for further study.
In early 1917, after graduating from Lu University, Huang Xuchu was assigned to the post of staff officer of Tan Haoming's overseer in Guangxi. After that, Tan Haoming created a model battalion and concentrated a group of talented and outstanding seedlings in one battalion, at that time the battalion commander was Ma Xiaojun, Huang Xu was the first captain company commander, and Huang Shaohu, Bai Chongxi and others served as lieutenant company attached. Perhaps even Ma Xiaojun himself did not expect at that time that his battalion would produce so many big figures in the future, which should also be the most commendable thing in Ma Xiaojun's life.
In the winter of the same year, the model battalion was reorganized into the 1st Battalion of the Guard of the Commander-in-Chief of the Xiangyue-Guangdong-Guizhou Coalition Army, which was attached to the battalion of Major Huang Xuchu at the time, and in this Xiangdi Operation, the Gui Army failed to return to Guangxi, and then the 1st Battalion was expanded to the 2nd Regiment of the 1st Division.
Ma Xiaojun was the regimental commander, and Huang Xuchu was attached to the regiment's major regiment, please note that at that time, Huang Shaohu and Bai Chongxi were still the company commanders of the regiment, and Huang Xuchu's position was even higher than the two of them.
In 1922, Huang Xuchu served as Li Zongren's chief of staff, and together they defeated the old Gui clan Lu Rongting, and later defeated Shen Hongying, becoming the new Gui clan in Guangxi. In 1926, under the reorganization of Dr. Sun Yat-sen, the Guangxi army was organized into the 7th Army of the National Revolutionary Army, Huang Xu initially served as the brigade commander of the 7th Army, and later Li Bai and li Bai led the 7th Army in the Northern Expedition, and Huang Xu stayed in his hometown at the beginning.
In 1930, Li Zongren of the Gui clan led his troops to participate in the Central Plains War, at which time Li Zongren let Huang Xuchu take charge of Guangxi and concurrently became the commander of the 15th Army, including after Li Bai and Li Bai were later transferred to Nanjing by Chiang Kai-shek, huang Xuchu was in charge of Guangxi, and Huang Xuchu did this for 19 years.
After the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japan, Chiang Kai-shek launched a nationwide war of resistance, the main force of the Gui army was transferred out of Guangxi to participate in the War of Resistance, and Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi also went to the front line of the anti-Japanese war. This also shows that Li and Bai trust him. Later, Huang Xuchu was awarded the rank of lieutenant general plus general.
During the Liberation War, he did not go to Taiwan with Chiang Kai-shek like Bai Chongxi, nor did he finally follow our party like Li Zongren, and Huang Xuchu finally did not surrender to anyone, and when Guangxi was about to be liberated, he first went to Hainan Island, then to Japan, and finally settled in Hong Kong, and died of a heart attack in Kowloon, Hong Kong on November 18, 1975, at the age of 84.
