Among the Whampoa students who followed Chiang Kai-shek, who could fight the most? In Su Yu's eyes, these three were the top generals?
In fact, this can be called a question of the opinions of the benevolent and the wise, after all, what is the basis?
It stands to reason that Chiang Kai-shek is the principal of Whampoa, and he is the one who has the most right to speak. As a result, checking Chiang Kai-shek's comments on his subordinates' favorite generals can directly confuse you.
Chiang Kai-shek once believed that Hu Zongnan was the most capable of fighting, and as his killer weapon, that is, his trump card, he had been recuperating during the Anti-Japanese War as a turnaround.
Unexpectedly, in 1944, after Chiang Kai-shek finally sacrificed Hu Zongnan, he directly let him break the defense, and the fight was too ugly, so that Chiang Kai-shek shouted: What face will Yu General face to see the world...... This kind of sin of ignorance and courage cannot be forgiven.
As a result, Hu Zongnan, the first protégé of the Son of Heaven, became a laughing stock. Chiang Kai-shek also once thought that Zhang Lingfu in the fourth phase of Whampoa was the most capable student, but unexpectedly, the whole army was wiped out in Menglianggu, and Chiang Kai-shek broke the defense, and angrily criticized Zhang Lingfu five times in 20 days.
After a while, he angrily criticized Zhang Lingfu for his improper tactical choice, not guarding the mountain pass, but only guarding the mountain, and the mountain was a stone mountain, and there was no drinking water.
After a while, he angrily scolded Zhang Lingfu for underestimating the enemy's pride and not scouting the terrain.
After a while, he was heartbroken: he was too small, and he was dragged down by heavy weapons and pack horses...... Attack your enemies like a stupid cow.
In this way, Zhang Lingfu turned out to be a negative example. Therefore, there is no way to rely on Chiang Kai-shek's standards. can only be evaluated based on the "opponent", that is, the evaluation from our side - but there is still a problem, there are many generals at the level of our god of war, which general is the most authoritative?
But unfortunately, although he was a fourth-term student of Huangpu, he rarely commented on the opponent's generals, so that some Huangpu classmates were captured alive, and he rarely went to visit. But he commented on Su Yu and said that he was fighting the battle of immortals.
This time there is an authoritative candidate, it is Su Yusu general, one is that Su Yu won the Huaihai Campaign, and the other is that he can be called the harvester of Huangpu famous generals, such as Li Mo'an in the seven battles and seven victories, Li Mo'an who defeated the first phase, Dai Zhiqi and Ma Xia in the fourth phase, Meng Lianggu Wanma beheaded Zhang Lingfu from it, and he has played against Du Yuming, Wang Yaowu, Qiu Qingquan, Hu Lian, etc. many times.
So in Su Yu's eyes, who among the Whampoa students who followed Chiang Kai-shek was the most capable of fighting? Su Yu gave three, in other words, in Su Yu's eyes, these three were the top generals.
The first is Hu Lian, Su Yu's comment on him is: Fierce generals seek talents. So much so that in a battle, Su Yu sent a telegram to Xu Shiyou, saying: The resistance should be based on defense, and cutting off the Kuomintang reinforcements should be the first priority, and Hu Lian should not be easily provoked!
I have to admit that General Su's vision is really powerful, and at the end of the Liberation War, it was Hu Lian who caused serious losses to General Su's Sanye - this is the Battle of Kinmen. So for Su Yu, Hu Lian can be called a top general.
The second is Du Yuming, he can be called the real opponent of General Su, the so-called decisive battle of Huaihai, to a certain extent, is the peak duel between Su Yu and Du Yuming.
For example, in the battle of Pantang Town, the two of them thought of making a surprise move at the same time, and at the same time selected Pantang, which led to the surprise attack teams of the two sides to start a battle in Pantang, and the surprise attack became a tough and rigid gong and drum in front of the face.
So what did Su Yu say about Du Yuming? Du Yuming could only fight against the wind, not against the wind, and Du had his own experience in war, but blindly obeyed Chiang Kai-shek!
hit the nail on the head, it was precisely because of blind obedience to Chiang Kai-shek that Du Yuming almost died in the Savage Mountain in Yunnan and Burma, and then entered Chenguanzhuang, resulting in defeat and capture.
The third place, and the one who was most recognized by Su Yu, was probably unexpected, was Wang Yaowu. Su Yu's comment on him is: Wang (Yaowu) is different, he has unique views on war, has executive ability, strong combat ability, and can fight both tailwinds and headwinds.
In other words, Su Yu made a comment after comparing Wang Yaowu with Du Yuming. The conclusion is very clear, that is, Wang Yaowu is a little better than Du Yuming.
