Text/No Counting Reading History
The Battle of Huaihai was proposed by Su Yu.
By 1948, the balance of war had begun to tilt in favor of the PLA. With the successive success reports of the People's Liberation Army, the combat quality and weapons and equipment of the soldiers have also been greatly improved.
At this time, the Communist Party was no longer the role that the Kuomintang could encircle and suppress when it said that it was encircled and suppressed.
01 Beginnings
What we are going to tell today is the story of the Huang Wei Corps, how did the Huang Wei Corps fall into the encirclement of the People's Liberation Army?
First of all, let's look at Huang Wei, who is Huang Wei? Huang Wei was a student of the first phase of Huangpu, and he fought many battles during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, such as the Wuhan Defense War, the Battle of Songhu, and the Burmese Counteroffensive.
It can be said that in the war, Huang Wei is a talent.
Chiang Kai-shek cared a lot about Huang Wei, Huang Wei was his confidant, and Huang Wei's Huang Wei Corps was a unit that could fight.
02 Induction
On November 13, 1948, the Huang Wei Corps launched an attack on the Nanpingji position held by the 4th Column of Nakano.
The resistance and counterattack of the warriors was tenacious, almost everyone was covered in blood, and the warriors' fingers were tightly pulling the trigger.
Both sides had strong firepower and fought back and forth. But the artillery of huang wei's corps seemed to be superior, and soon suppressed the artillery of the People's Liberation Army.
That night, the fighters withdrew from their positions.
The Nanpingji position was the last line of defense on the Xun River, and Huang Wei's corps soon crossed the Huan River.
As the troops continued to march, Huang Weicai felt more and more unhappy. He barely encountered much resistance when he crossed the Huan River, and even now he could not even see the shadow of the People's Liberation Army.
Afraid that I was ambushed? Huang Wei was uncertain in his heart.
At this time, it was already the 24th, and Huang Wei was convinced that his current situation was worrying, so he quickly gathered his troops and rushed in the direction of other corps.
However, it was already too late, and when the Huang Wei Corps moved, the PLA soldiers had already formed a closed encirclement, and the defensive line was constantly converging towards the Huang Wei Corps.
The first gunshot rang out on the 25th, when the Huang Wei Corps still had 7.5 kilometers of space in the vertical line.
The Huang Wei Corps began to break through, and with the help of aircraft, they continued to attack the PLA positions.
Heavy artillery fire poured down, but the warriors did not shy away, struggling to open fire on the charging enemy.
03 Uprising
The breakthrough plan of Huang Wei's corps failed again and again, but Huang Wei was not dead-hearted, and he continued to order a breakthrough.
Suddenly, there was confusion in the charging ranks, and the soldiers of the 110th Division raised their guns and pointed them at nearby soldiers.
Liao Yunzhou, the commander of the 110th Division, led an uprising on the spot, and no one thought that Liao Yunzhou was a secret member of the Communist Party.
The uprising of the 110th Division once again disrupted Huang Wei's breakout plan, and chaos occurred on the battlefield, making the fighting power of the Huang Wei Corps in motion loose.
Huang Wei had to once again order a retreat.
He also finally received orders from Chiang Kai-shek at this time, and Chiang Kai-shek asked Huang Wei to stand firm and wait for help.
Huang Wei completely abandoned the plan to break through and began to deploy a defensive front, and the soldiers under his command also began to dig trenches and occupy mountain villages.
Huang Wei's corps was surrounded, and Huang Wei was naturally miserable. He didn't know how many possibilities there were, and he couldn't bring up anything.
The real battle is just beginning.
