In 1945, the 6th Division of the New Fourth Army was fiercely attacked by the Japanese army. Commander Su Yu was busy commanding his subordinates to fight to the death and forcing all the prisoners. Everyone was puzzled, and even *** sent a telegram: "Are you right to do this to the captives?".”
When Su Yu was at stake, he actually found another way to organize his subordinates to duel, is this really wrong?
In 1945, the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression broke out, and the Kuomintang and the Communist Party began to fight against Japan together.
In November of the same year, the 6th Brigade of the 17th Division of the New Fourth Army was fiercely besieged by the Japanese army. The New Fourth Army had less than 20,000 men, while the Japanese army was more than twice as many. Even *** and grain and grass, the New Fourth Army is in a state of scarcity.
Faced with a situation in which the enemy was strong and we were weak, Su Yu, commander of the New Fourth Army, made a rather "shocking" decision.
Su Yu first ordered his comrades in the army to "fight to the death" in pairs, and then brought the prisoners to the assembly point**.
Everyone in the army was puzzled and disgusted by the decision of their superiors, believing that it was humiliating their compatriots.
Su Yu, however, insisted on his own opinion, believing that this would not only boost the morale of our army, but also make Japan wonder and fear.
Su Yu's strategy really worked, and although the Japanese army surrounded our army tightly, the soldiers of the New Fourth Army were highly motivated, fearless, and bravely resisted the enemy.
At this time, ** sent a telegram and asked Su Yu: "Are you right to treat the captives like this?"* I also feel that this is inappropriate.
In the face of ***'s questioning, Su Yu replied that *** fighting can not only boost the morale of our army, but also protect the prisoners. If the Japanese knew that they had been defeated, the consequences would be unimaginable. ”
Su Yu's strategy finally allowed the New Fourth Army to hold on to the encirclement of the Japanese army, obtain foreign aid, and successfully launched a counterattack against the Japanese army.
This operation boosted the morale of the New Fourth Army, and the loyalty and courage of the unit also set an example for China's war of resistance against Japan.
This battle of winning more with less was ultimately attributed to Su Yu's shrewd decision-making.
In a critical situation where the enemy is strong and we are weak, Su Yu is not chaotic, is good at figuring out people's hearts, and is good at commanding operations. This has to make you and me admire.
