Looking back on the Liberation War, I believe that future generations will always have the same feeling:
How did the fierce generals of the Nationalist Army on the anti-Japanese battlefield be frightened as soon as they reached the civil war?
Taking the Shandong battlefield as an example, which of the people who fought on this land, such as Zhang Lingfu, Wang Yaowu, Ou Zhen, Li Xianzhou and Xue Yue, was not a well-known figure on the anti-Japanese battlefield?
Zhang Lingfu
Of course, it must be said that these people are only the main generals at the level of the military division, and the highest is only the main generals at the level of the corps, and their strength and status naturally cannot be compared with that of general Su Yu.
But at least these people are not straw bales, and the performance on the liberation battlefield is really unexpected.
It is worth mentioning that Xue Yue here is still a hard bone, and when he first fought with Su Yu, he was not soft at all, but in the face of the powerful Su Yu, what was the result of Xue Yue in the end?
Today's Brief History Archive will talk to you about the story of Su Yu who beat Xue Yue to autism with three wars.
Su Yu
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="8" > the First Battle of Soviet-Central China</h1>
After the beginning of the all-out civil war in 1946, the Kuomintang set up the Xuzhou Appeasement Office, the supreme command body, on the battlefield in East China, and Xue Yue was the director of the Xuzhou Appeasement Office, commanding all the military forces in East China.
There was also a reason why Xue Yue could gain such trust from Old Jiang, and that was because Xue Yue's performance in the War of Resistance Against Japan was too outstanding.
If nothing else, just take a number, you can see that Xue Yue led his troops to kill and capture nearly 60,000 Japanese troops at the cost of 28,000 casualties.
Even if such a record is taken out, it will not lose to General Su Yu of our army at all.
Therefore, when Old Jiang dispatched Xuzhou, the first choice was Xue Yue, and Xue Yue immediately took office.
Lee Mo An
In fact, Xue Yue was still very confident at the beginning, and naturally did not personally intervene in the dispatch, but sent Li Mo'an to command it with full authority, and he himself sat on the mountain to watch the tiger fight.
In the face of Huaye's 30,000 troops, Xue Yue did not pay attention to it at all, and directly asked Li Mo'an to eat Huaye with 4 times the strength of the troops.
As a result, as the world knows, Su Yu gave up the outer line battle at the beginning and changed to the inside line fight, and later Su Yu also frankly said:
It is believed that the rear forces of the Soviet and Chinese base areas are sufficient, the mass base is good, and not only can the supply be unimpeded in a timely manner, but also the intelligence is unimpeded.
Taking advantage of Su Zhong's superiority, Su Yu's 30,000 people were not only not eaten by Li Mo'an's 120,000 troops, but also destroyed Xue Yue's nearly 50,000 troops, directly frightening Xue Yue.
Xue Yue
Xue Yue was shocked when he heard this, he realized that he had underestimated this Su Yu, when he was fighting in the Battle of Xiangjiang, Xue Yue had fought the Red Army's 80,000 troops to the ground, he thought that this time the heavens could still take care of him, but he was beaten by a Su Yu that he had never heard of before.
The Battle of Suzhong was the first time that Xue Yue had learned Su Yu's combat strength, but the Battle of Suzhong was not yet a battle to completely defeat Xue Yue, and what really scared him was the second confrontation.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="64" > the Second Battle of Lunan</h1>
After all, the Battle of Suzhong was not fought by Xue Yue and Su Yu personally, although Li Mo'an suffered a big loss, but Xue Yue always had doubts in his heart, thinking that Li Mo'an was too straw bale.
Moreover, Xue Yue did not personally start at the first time, in addition to slightly looking down on Su Yu, there was also that he really couldn't take care of it, at that time, xue Yue arrived at the East China battlefield, the main energy was still focused on attacking the Shandong Liberated Area.
It has to be said that due to Xue Yue's tactical bravery and the Shandong Field Army's inability to adapt to various objective conditions, at the beginning it really made Xue Yue eat several victories, and successively took Lianshui, Baoying and other places, and even the most important places in central China, Huaiyin and Huai'an, were also eaten by Xue Yue.
Coupled with all this, although Su Yu defeated Su Zhong, Xue Yue also won so much, so Li Mo'an's defeat did not make him pay much attention to it.
But who is Su Yu? A military wizard rarely seen in a hundred years!
Su Yu soon realized that it was inappropriate for the field armies of Shandong and Central China to fight separately, so Su Yu decided to merge the two armies and personally command them, while Chen Yi was in charge of the overall work of the two armies.
Sure enough, after the merger of the two armies, Xue Yue never had the opportunity to surround and annihilate the first army, but instead Su Yu fought a beautiful annihilation battle with the merged army.
First, in the Battle of Subei, Su Yu surrounded and annihilated the reorganized 69th Division led by Dai Zhiqi, and the division commander Dai Zhiqi was directly killed in the battle, and the 11th Division of Hu Lian, who was trailing, was also eaten by Su Yu and fled without a shadow.
Xue Yue finally understood the power of Su Yu's mobile and flexible combat, and no longer despised it as before, but Xue Yue was stupid and blunt, and always held the idea of Dai Zhiqi straw bag, rather than Su Yu's idea of being too powerful in his heart.
Soon, this wrong idea directly taught Xue Yue a lesson.
In 1947, Su Yu, with a combined army, in fact, the Later East China Field Army, directly surrounded the reorganized 26th Division led by Ma Liwu in Yixian County, completely repelling the idea of the Nationalist army attacking Linyi.
Chiang Kai-shek
Ma Liwu was so frightened that he called Xue Yue for support, but Xue Yue did not think so, and to put it bluntly, his idea was that he would rather let Ma Liwu die in battle than let Ma Liwu retain some of his strength and withdraw to make plans.
Ma Liwu also realized that Xue Yue had made him wait for his death in Yixian County, "preferring to die and never lose the land", which was a great contradiction between the old concept of the national army and our army.
The result? Xue Yue suffered another big loss.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="65" > the Third Battle of Laiwu</h1>
After the first two battles, Xue Yue was finally beaten by Su Yu and did not dare to be proud anymore.
Chiang Kai-shek was also greatly disappointed in Xue Yue's performance in these two battles, which can be said to be how big the cowhide was blown at the beginning and how humiliating it is now.
However, because Xue Yue was his favorite general, he also had to worry about the problem of face, so Old Jiang did not remove Xue Yue, but still gave him the opportunity to participate in the plan of Xuzhou's troops to advance north.
This time, the layout of the old Chiang Kai-shek was not bad, and this time the Nationalist army adopted the strategy of advancing simultaneously on the north and south lines, and Ou Zhen and Li Xianzhou were in charge, which was a deployment worth talking about.
Li Xianzhou
However, after being hit twice by Su Yu, Xue Yue was obviously no longer confident this time, and became decent, only promising, only daring to manage Xuzhou, and the rest did not dare to intervene at all.
It is worth mentioning that although Xue Yue is afraid, he is not a man without a plan after all.
In the face of the battlefield, Xue Yue actually had many suggestions, but Chen Cheng, a person who often crossed the command level, often insulted the commander for being useless, even if Xue Yue had more suggestions, he did not dare to mention them.
But what is the most taboo on the battlefield? Conservative cowardice!
If it is usual, the most it is to be dug into a pit and ridicule twice, but this is a battlefield, hundreds of thousands of troops are opposed, who protects who suffers, who is cowardly and who is finished first!
Chen Cheng's fart did not understand, he would grin, Xue Yue did know a lot, but in the face of Chen Cheng's rights, Xue Yue did not dare to open his mouth to suggest.
Temporary
On the battlefield, they did not want to come up with plans and strategies against the enemy, but instead came from the temperament of their superiors. That's sending to death!
The result did not disappoint everyone, Chen Cheng commanded haphazardly on the front line, watching Ou Zhen report Linyi's great victory, he immediately fainted, thinking that Su Yu Chen Yi had no resistance, and hurriedly let Li Xianzhou appear on the scene.
In the end, Li Xianzhou's fate was of course not good, 3 days were eaten 50,000 troops, even Wang Yaowu said bluntly, even if 50,000 pigs, Su Yu could not catch them in 3 days.
Who is to blame for all this? Is Li Xianzhou too useless? Or is it Chen Cheng's blind command?
In the final analysis, is xue yue's inaction nothing wrong at all? Right or wrong, see it now.
