If we talk about the period of the War of Liberation, our army had a headache, and at the same time was a general whom Chiang Kai-shek relied on more, there was Du Yuming, who was called Chiang Kai-shek's fire brigade leader during the Liberation War. Zhang Lingfu was the vanguard of Chiang Kai-shek's civil war, so he died the earliest, and the Fifth Army led by Qiu Qingquan was also a unit with strong combat ability on the battlefield of liberation. Huang Baitao was the best performer among the generals of the Nationalist Army during the Liberation War, and belonged to both offensive and defensive. Hu Lian was also a strong opponent and performed well in this civil war, and Zhong Song on the northwest battlefield was also a tiger general who had won consecutive victories over the Northwest Field Army. Including Song Xilian, Bai Chongxi, Ma Jiyuan, Fu Zuoyi, Liao Yaoxiang and other generals of the Nationalist Army, they performed well during the Liberation War and won some battles.
The above people, whether it is the civil war, or their performance in the face of the Japanese Kou is still OK, and they can be called famous generals of the War of Resistance. However, in the Nationalist army group, there was another scene, there were four famous generals, who once faced the aggressor Japanese Kou, they bravely marched forward, won frequent victories on the battlefield, won the title of famous general of the War of Resistance, even the Japanese Kou heard their names and were frightened, but in the face of the subsequent civil war, these four famous generals behaved very abnormally, and they failed on the battlefield one after another, so that they could not be used by Chiang Kai-shek.
The first was Sun Lianzhong, who joined the Northwest Army in his early years and was admired by Feng Yuxiang for his bravery in battle and became one of the 13 Taibao of the Northwest Army. Because in terms of fighting, Sun Lianzhong was not only a brave general, but also made great achievements in military command, and was known as one of the five tiger generals in the middle of the Northwest Army. Because he knew how to command and could fight, after the Northwest Army was absorbed by Chiang Kai-shek, Sun Lianzhong served as the commander-in-chief of the Twenty-sixth Route Army.
After the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Sun Lianzhong led the Northwest Army into the War of Defending the Homeland. Once in the Battle of Taierzhuang, he led his troops to fight the integrity of the Chinese soldiers, vowed not to retreat, and fought for every inch of land, resisted the repeated attacks of the Japanese Kou, and made great contributions to ensuring the victory in the Battle of Taierzhuang. Because of the General Sun Lianzhong in the Battle of Taierzhuang, the Japanese suffered the biggest resistance since the invasion war, and suffered heavy losses. It also made these little devils fear General Sun Lianzhong and gave him a title of "Sun Gangtou".
It was such a famous general of the War of Resistance who made the Japanese Kou feel frightened, and in the subsequent civil war, he performed mediocrely and did not participate in directing large-scale battles, which led to the fact that he could not be used by Chiang Kai-shek.
The second was Liu Ruming, also a famous general from the Northwest Army, who was also one of Feng Yuxiang's thirteen Taibao and one of the Five Tigers of the Northwest Army. The general who can be selected as one of the 13 Taibao of the Northwest Army and one of the Five Tiger Generals is needless to say that he is definitely very bullish in military terms. You must know that these titles are not obtained by patting horses, but must have real skills and spell them out on the battlefield. Even if you are given an honorary title, you have no real ability, and you will be exposed to the battlefield. Otherwise, war is the only criterion for testing soldiers.
Liu Ruming was able to stand out among the 400,000 Northwest Army, and he was definitely a tiger general who had experienced hundreds of battles. In the face of the Japanese Kou, he participated in the earliest Great Wall War of Resistance, and was one of the first famous generals of the Nationalist Army to fight against the Japanese Kou. Including in the years of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Liu Ruming's performance was absolutely worthy of the title of famous general of the War of Resistance. For a long time, he led his troops to fight against the Japanese Kou in North China, so that the little devils in North China, when they heard Liu Ruming's name, were frightened that no one dared to go out alone in the middle of the night.
However, during the subsequent civil war, Liu Ruming, who had once made the Japanese Kou feel frightened, behaved generally, although he also served as the commander of the corps and participated in the Battle of Huaihai, he did not achieve decent results, and was also jokingly called a general who escaped and was often defeated. The performance during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression is simply a world apart.
The third was Wang Yaowu, a General of Chiang Kai-shek's Huangpu clan, who was definitely a tiger general during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression. He was one of the generals in Chiang Kai-shek's military clique who contributed the most to the victory of the war, and the 74th Army led by him was hailed as one of the five main forces of the Nationalist Army and held the title of Tiger Army. Including, he Yingqin called the most splendid battle since the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, which was the brilliant battle record created by Wang Yaowu during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression.
However, such a fierce general did not achieve decent results in the later civil war period. In the Battle of Jinan, he led 120,000 troops to hold out for only one week, and the whole army was destroyed, and even he himself became a prisoner. He was known as the worst performer of Chiang Kai-shek's Huangpu generals during the Civil War. But he was also the best performer among Chiang Kai-shek's Huangpu generals during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, with a big gap between before and after.
The fourth was Xue Yue, a famous general of the War who was called the God of War by the Japanese Kou. The senior japanese general Okamura Ningji once said such a passage, shaking the mountain is easy, shaking the Xue family's army is difficult, referring to General Xue Yue. In the face of the Japanese Kou, General Xue Yue commanded the famous Wanjialing Victory, won three victories in the Battle of Changsha, repelled the Japanese Kou, attacked again and again, annihilated more than 100,000 enemy personnel, became the commander of the theater with the largest number of annihilated enemies during the War of Resistance, and made great contributions to the victory of the War of Resistance.
However, such a famous general, during the subsequent civil war, performed abnormally and lost his sensitivity to the former battle situation. During his tenure as director of Xuzhou, he commanded the Battle of Subei, and the Battle of Lunan was defeated one after another, causing Chiang Kai-shek to lose two elite reorganized divisions. Old Jiang was very angry, so he removed Xue Yue from his post, and General Xue Yue, who had once made the Japanese Kou feel frightened, from the front line to the rear to take up a civilian post.
