Zhang Lingfu really only deserves to be the head of the regiment?
Many voices on the Internet questioned Zhang Lingfu's military talents, believing that he was only suitable for the position of regiment commander or battalion commander. However, by comparing historical data, we can see that Zhang Lingfu's performance on the battlefield is far from being limited to the regimental level. He rose to prominence in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, not only having an outstanding experience as a regimental commander, but also showing outstanding talent in a higher level of command.
In 1926, Zhang Lingfu graduated from the fourth phase of the Whampoa Military Academy and reported to the 21st Division. Starting as a platoon commander, he was quickly promoted to the position of commander of the 305th Regiment by virtue of his combat exploits and ingenuity. After the Battle of Nanjing, he was promoted to the commander of the 135th Brigade of the 51st Division of the 74th Army, which was not only a recognition of his previous military achievements, but also the special care of the division commander Wang Yaowu.
However, some people questioned whether Zhang Lingfu was really only suitable to be a regimental-level officer. In the victory of Wanjialing in September 1938, Zhang Lingfu successfully commanded the 305th Regiment as a feint attack force and cooperated with friendly forces to capture Zhanggushan. Although he paid a huge price in the counterattack of the Japanese army, Zhang Lingfu organized a commando team at night to continuously recapture the position, and finally annihilated more than 500 Japanese soldiers, which became an important battle in the history of the Anti-Japanese War. This performance proves that Zhang Lingfu is not only an officer at the regimental level, but also has outstanding performance in higher-level command.
Zhang Lingfu, commander of the reorganized 74th Division, fought with our army.
In December 1945, Zhang Lingfu became the commander of the 74th Division, and then led the 74th Division to participate in the campaign. However, in the Battle of Menglianggu, the entire army of the 74th Division was annihilated, which caused some doubts about Zhang Lingfu. However, we need to look at the battle situation at that time, as well as Zhang Lingfu's command performance before Meng Lianggu.
In mid-August 1946, Xue Yue sent Zhang Lingfu to attack Huaiyin and use the "heart-digging tactic" to raid northern Jiangsu. The success of this plan was not directly related to the destruction of the 74th Division in the Battle of Menglianggu. In fact, during the operation in northern Jiangsu, Zhang Lingfu and the Seventh Army of the Gui lineage had excellent coordinated operations, successfully occupied Huaiyin, and created favorable conditions for our army.
Zhang Lingfu's tactical ingenuity.
Zhang Lingfu's success is not accidental, but is based on a deep insight into the battlefield and flexible use of tactics. In the campaign in northern Jiangsu, he worked closely with Xue Yue and adopted unexpected tactics to successfully capture Huaiyin and win valuable fighters for our army.
During the period of the reorganization of the 74th Division, Zhang Lingfu showed the demeanor of an ace division commander on the battlefield. His command abilities were not limited to the regimental level, but were demonstrated at higher levels of military command. By comparing historical materials, we can have a more comprehensive understanding of Zhang Lingfu's military talent, he was not just an officer limited to the regimental level, but an outstanding general who rose to prominence in the Anti-Japanese War.
Zhang Lingfu: The glorious history of military genius.
Zhang Lingfu, a military general who emerged in the history of the Anti-Japanese War, his experience and command ability were vividly displayed on the battlefield of resistance against Japan. As for some voices questioning that he is only suitable for a regimental-level position, through an in-depth analysis of historical materials, we can see that Zhang Lingfu's military talent is far from what it seems.
First of all, after graduating from the Whampoa Military Academy in 1926, Zhang Lingfu joined the 21st Division with the background of Peking University. His promotion from a platoon commander to the commander of the 305th regiment did not come out of nowhere, but was won by virtue of outstanding combat exploits and ingenuity. His promotion is not only a personal recognition of him by the leadership, but also a high level of trust in his commanding ability. After the Battle of Nanjing, Zhang Lingfu was promoted to the rank of major general and brigade commander of the 135th Brigade of the 51st Division of the 74th Army, showing that his military ability was recognized at a higher level.
At the critical moment, Zhang Lingfu showed a command level beyond the regimental level in the victory of Wanjialing in 1938. He organized a commando team to recapture the position at night, and successfully cooperated with friendly forces to capture Zhanggushan, which became an important battle in the history of the Anti-Japanese War. This battle was not only a test of Zhang Lingfu's courage and resourcefulness, but also a successful practice of the 305th Regiment under his command on a higher-level battlefield.
Second, the role of the commander of the reorganized 74th Division enabled Zhang Lingfu to show unique military intelligence at a higher level of command. In 1945, he became the commander of the 74th Division and participated in the campaign. However, in the Battle of Menglianggu, the 74th Division was completely annihilated, which caused some doubts. However, through a comprehensive examination of the battle situation, we can see that the Battle of Menglianggu was not only Zhang Lingfu's personal defeat, but also the mistake of the entire army in a specific environment.
In the Northern Jiangsu Campaign in 1946, Xue Yue sent Zhang Lingfu to attack Huaiyin, and successfully occupied Huaiyin by using the "heart-digging tactics", creating favorable conditions for our army. The success of this tactic demonstrated Zhang Lingfu's deep understanding of the battle situation and his outstanding ability in high-level command.
On the whole, Zhang Lingfu's military journey shows a glorious process of being promoted from regimental level to ace division commander. His military exploits and command skills have left a strong mark in the history of the Anti-Japanese War. As for some voices who question his suitability only for regimental level posts, we can clearly say that this does not correspond to historical facts. Zhang Lingfu was not only an outstanding regiment commander, but also a military genius who excelled in higher-level command.
