Huang Wei was Peng Dehuai's "nemesis", in 1932 the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army attacked Ganzhou, the commander-in-chief was Peng Dehuai, but the result ended in a fiasco. Regarding the defeat in the attack on Ganzhou, Peng Dehuai didn't understand until he died, and it was not Ma Kun who made him defeated, but the real opponent Huang Wei. At this time, Huang Wei was only 28 years old.
Huang Wei participated in the Battle of Songhu, the Battle of Wuhan, and the Burma Counteroffensive, and made great contributions in the War of Resistance Against Japan. Among them, the Battle of Songhu, known as the "Flesh Mill", performed extremely bravely in the Battle of Luodian.
Huang Wei's daughter once said: "The battle for Luodian lasted for more than two months, four in and four out, and more than 20,000 Chinese and Japanese people were killed and wounded. It is not an exaggeration to say that the Japanese call Luodian the 'Flesh Mill'. My father was at the front line commanding the battle, and he taught the soldiers in the bunker how to protect their lives while shooting. He also knew that the soldiers had been bitten by the locusts for a long time in the trench bunkers full of dirty water, because he was also in the trenches. ”
Among the 15 officially published works of Chairman Mao, Chairman Mao mentioned Huang Wei's name 144 times, which is an astonishing number. On the one hand, this also reflects Chairman Mao's importance to Huang Wei's military talent.
