As a general in the Kuomintang army, Huang Baitao defected to Chiang Kai-shek through counter-aggression.
Because he is not a Whampoa family, he has always been treated as a miscellaneous card, and it is rare to trust him and be wronged. To this end, Huang Baitao drilled the camp four times and tossed for nearly a decade, until 1941, when he entered the circle of Gu Zhutong, a close confidant of Chiang Kai-shek.
Although Huang Baitao tried every means to be close to Gu Zhu, Gu Zhutong, as the commander of the theater, still did not value him.
In August 1945, Japan surrendered, and Huang Baitao led his troops to Shanghai to garrison. This time, in order to make an exception for the incorruptible general, he made an exception to occupy a small bungalow in Jing'an Temple.
Why did Huang Baitao make an exception?
Not for yourself.
Instead, he was ready to dedicate the small bungalow to Lu Xu, gu Zhutong's office director.
Who knows, the old owner of this house is an American friend of Song Ziwen. After Song Ziwen received the complaint, he sent someone to call Huang Baitao to the office, and then, in a half-Chinese and half-foreign language, he scolded Huang Baitao in person.
Finally, Song Ziwen drank, "You bastard, I have to remove you from your post." ”
Fortunately, at this time, He Yingqin went to Shanghai on business, and Huang Baitao was trusted and ran to complain in the middle of the night. He Yingqin saw his tears ripple and felt pity, so he came forward to dredge Song Ziwen for him.
In this way, Huang Baitao "escaped" his life from the palm of Song Ziwen's hand.
Since then, Huang Baitao has not dared to play a crooked idea in the economy, so he has to fight to the death to be the first, and retreat to deny himself and abide by the law. Because he could fight, he soon became one of the few "fierce soldiers in the army" in the Kuomintang army and won the favor of Gu Zhutong.
Unexpectedly, it was precisely because of this that he played the vanguard everywhere in the civil war, and even personally charged in a tank, and finally this war maniac went to the Road of Huangquan and committed suicide in the Battle of Huaihai.
After Huang Baitao's death, some people said: "Huang Baitao's death is mainly due to the fact that he was a miscellaneous army. Some people also said: "Huang Baitao died in 1946 song Ziwen's stinky scolding!" ”
Why?
Because, without This stinky scolding from Song Ziwen, Huang Baitao might also be like other generals, relying on his cleverness to bribe the camp to seek officials, instead of desperately trying on the battlefield and charging into battle.
This is not without reason.
