Yang Hucheng was tired of the civil war and retreated. Soon, Zhang Xueliang took the initiative to contact the Red Army, and after repeated trials with Yang Hucheng, the three sides reached an anti-Japanese consensus. In the autumn of 1936, Chiang Kai-shek marched north with his army and personally came to Xi'an to supervise the battle. Zhang and Yang decided to simultaneously launch military advice in Xi'an and Lintong to capture Chiang Kai-shek alive, forcing Chiang Kai-shek to accept the idea of "stopping the civil war and uniting with the Communists to resist Japan."

The Liaoshen Campaign, one of the three major battles during the Kuomintang-Communist Civil War, created favorable conditions for the Communists to defeat the Kuomintang.

He grasped the opportunity of the strategic decisive battle in time, and decided to annihilate the Wei Lihuang clique of the Kuomintang army in the northeast, which was already in a difficult situation, and ordered the main force of the northeast field army to go south to the Beining line and close the rear road of Chiang Kai-shek's army. Lin Biao proposed a campaign plan to attack Changchun first to annihilate Shenyang to aid the enemy, and in July 1948, Lin Biao called the Central Military Commission and decided to follow Mao Zedong's advice and fight south to the Beining Line. During this period, Chiang Kai-shek repeatedly studied the withdrawal and defense of Chiang Kai-shek's army in the northeast. Out of consideration of political interests, it was finally decided to withdraw the main force to Jinzhou and wait for the international situation to change. On September 12, the Liaoshen Campaign began. On October 14, the main force of Dongye launched a general attack on Jinzhou, and it took only 31 hours to conquer Jinzhou, annihilating more than 100,000 enemy troops. Subsequently, Changchun was liberated. Soon, Shenyang and Yingkou were liberated one after another.

At the same time, the Central Plains Field Army captured SuXian County, a military stronghold of the Xu beng Line. Chiang Kai-shek ordered Du Yuming to return to Xu Beng to command the battle, and several corps approached Xuzhou, and the situation on the Huaihai battlefield was grim. On November 16, the Central Military Commission decided that Liu Bocheng, Deng Xiaoping, Chen Yi, Su Yu, and Tan Zhenlin would form the General Front Committee of the Huaihai Campaign and command the Zhongye and Huaye operations in a unified manner. After more than ten days of fierce fighting, Huang Botao's corps was completely annihilated.

In order to hold back and annihilate Fu Zuoyi's clique, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China ordered the Northeast Field Army to enter the pass in advance to join the North China Field Army led by Nie Rongzhen and launch the Pingjin Campaign. Soon, Fu Zuoyi's loyal army, the 35th Army, was besieged by the People's Liberation Army and annihilated in XinbaoCheng. At this time, the People's Liberation Army not only completed the siege of Zhangjiakou, but also pinned down Fu Zuoyi's main force and Chiang Kai-shek's three thousand troops. After lin biao's northeast field army entered the pass and met Nie Rongzhen, it completed the siege of Beiping. After the Battle of Pingjin began, Fu Zuoyi secretly contacted the CPC Central Committee many times to conduct peace talks. After Mao Zedong listed the list of war criminals in his 1949 New Year's message, Fu Zuoyi again sent representatives to negotiate with the Chinese Communists, but the negotiations were not successful because the disparities between the two sides were too great. Fu believed that as long as he held Tianjin, he would be able to achieve his goal, so he ordered Chen Changjie to stick to Tianjin. At the same time, representatives were sent to continue negotiations with the Chinese Communists. Before the negotiations were over, Tianjin fell, and Fu Zuoyi's disillusionment was shattered, so he had to announce his acceptance of the agreement on the peaceful liberation of Peiping. On the same day, Chiang Kai-shek issued a statement of "retirement" and returned to his hometown of Xikou, Zhejiang. In order to thank Fu Zuoyi for his contribution to the peaceful liberation of Peiping, Mao Zedong and Zhou Enlai warmly received Fu Zuoyi in Xibaipo.
