In 1949, the war spread and the annihilation of the national army was a foregone conclusion.
Faced with the reversal of the situation, many generals of the national army began to choose to go with the tide and surrender to the nascent people's power.
For example, Fu Zuoyi, Chen Mingren and others are its representatives.
So, at this critical moment in history, whose uprising in the Nationalist army hit Chiang Kai-shek the hardest?
It's not Fu Zuoyi or Chen Mingren, it's this person: Liao Yunzhou.
CCP undercover
In 1927, Liao Yunzhou, who had just stepped out of the gate of the Whampoa Military Academy, resolutely joined our army with enthusiasm.
He not only quickly rose to prominence and became an outstanding Communist Party member, but also participated in the Northern Expedition with our army and made many military exploits.
Because of his outstanding performance, the organization placed high hopes on him, and appointed him as a staff officer of the 1st Battalion of the 75th Regiment of the 25th Division.
Subsequently, he was sent to Nanjing to take on a secret mission that would change his life.
Under Premier Zhou's secret arrangement, he became an undercover agent who infiltrated the Kuomintang and began a secret career that lasted for more than 20 years.
In the autumn of 1939, when the wind was getting cooler, Liao Yunzhou of the 656th Regiment of the 110th Division was transferred to the cadre training class of the 31st Group Army.
At this time, he was suspected of collaborating with the Communist Party, and his life was in danger. Later, after more than a year of investigation, the Kuomintang lifted its observation of him, and finally returned to the 110th Division in 1941.
This experience gave Liao Yunzhou a profound warning, and he understood that he needed to be more cautious. He began to pay more attention to detail, handling every issue with care and care, in case of another accident.
In the national army, his appearance has always shown a posture of "loyalty and patriotism", but behind it is his sincere feelings for the country and the people.
Every turmoil and every setback sharpened Liao Yunzhou's will.
In the summer of 1948, when the heat was steaming, Liao Yunzhou received a secret order from Liu Deng.
He knew full well that the bell of the uprising had quietly sounded.
As a result, Liao Yunzhou began to run around, secretly contacting, like weaving a net, connecting the clues of the uprising little by little.
In order to ensure close ties with our party, Liao Yunzhou decided to take a desperate step and secretly set up a radio station.
The radio station became his bridge of communication with the outside world and an indispensable part of the preparations for the uprising. In the dead of night, the faint radio waves jump in the air, carrying the signal and hope of the uprising.
At that time, the elite Kuomintang troops led by Huang Wei gathered together, and they held a powerful military force enough to set off stormy waves on the battlefield.
And our army is in a predicament, and it is far from easy to completely encircle and annihilate the Huang Wei Corps.
At this time, Liao Yunzhou stood up, and he proposed to Huang Wei: "The 110th Division is willing to take the risk of taking the lead and opening up a way for the commander to survive." ”
Huang Wei had high hopes for Liao Yun on Monday, and he was even more emotional at this time. He held Liao Yunzhou's hand tightly and said gratefully: "I still have to rely on you at the critical moment, Brother Liao." ”
But then Liao Yunzhou led the troops to revolt, and with the announcement of the uprising of the 110th Division on the battlefield, the guns turned and joined forces with the People's Liberation Army to launch a fierce attack on Huang Wei's troops.
Under this sudden change, the enemy's morale quickly collapsed and he retreated.
The situation on the battlefield changed dramatically in a short period of time, and the 110th Division's plan for an uprising was completely beyond the enemy's expectations.
Huang Wei's troops fled in panic, but they could not escape the iron hooves of the PLA. In the fierce battle, Huang Wei's troops were completely wiped out, and he himself had to be captured.
This unexpected battle became an important turning point in the Chinese Liberation War, completely changing the course of the war.
Liao Yunzhou's decisive actions, as well as the uprising of the 110th Division, tilted the scales of the civil war between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party in favor of the victory of New China, laying a solid foundation for the liberation and future of the country.
Why did the Liao Yunzhou uprising hit Chiang Kai-shek the hardest?
Some people may doubt that Liao Yunzhou's rank in the Kuomintang army was not high, and the size of his troops was not as large as that of Fu Zuoyi and Chen Mingren.
However, he succeeded in leading an uprising that left Chiang Kai-shek in an irreparable position. Why is that?
First of all, Liao Yunzhou was a graduate of the Whampoa Military Academy, and he made great contributions to the war, which made Chiang Kai-shek extremely trusting him.
This trust provided Liao Yunzhou with important political capital and accumulated a wide range of contacts for him.
Second, Liao Yunzhou carried out a long period of covert work before the uprising, maintaining one-line contact with the Communists, which provided better cover for his uprising operations.
At the same time, he was very decisive and courageous in the course of the uprising, which also made his uprising a success.
In addition, Liao Yunzhou is also good at using strategies.
He knew that his strength and position did not have an advantage in the Kuomintang army, so he chose to join other progressive officers in the uprising. In this way, his uprising had a broader mass base and support.
Liao Yunzhou single-handedly changed the entire situation of the war, achieving a major victory for our army, and also laying a crucial step for the outcome of the civil war between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party.
Liao Yunzhou's betrayal dealt a blow to Chiang Kai-shek, and an immediate uproar within the Kuomintang began, and people began to question Chiang Kai-shek's leadership and governance.
His actions made more people see clearly the corruption and incompetence of the Kuomintang government, and also made more people see the dawn and hope of New China.
Therefore, Liao Yunzhou's betrayal may have dealt a more far-reaching blow to Chiang Kai-shek than the uprising of Fu Zuoyi and Chen Mingren. Since then, Chiang Kai-shek has always regarded Liao Yunzhou as the main culprit in the defeat of the Kuomintang army.
But for Liao Yunzhou, he has waited too long for this day.
He has been dormant in the Kuomintang for more than 20 years in order to wait for the day when the victory of our party's great cause will come.
With the establishment of New China, as one of the founding major generals, he was highly valued by the organization.
He was first appointed secretary of the party committee of the Shenyang Artillery School, and then held a number of important positions, dedicating his strength to the construction of the motherland.
epilogue
The story of Liao Yunzhou is not only a legend, but also a symbol of spirit.
His spirit, like a bright lamp, will always shine on the path of future generations and inspire us to work hard to realize the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
