Three minutes to talk about culture
Among Jiang Jun, there was once a popular saying: "Even if there are ten kings of the northwest, they are not worthy of one king of Kinmen." The former refers to Hu Zongnan, and the latter refers to Hu Lian.
Although it is said that Hu Zongnan is not so weak, within the Kuomintang, many people admire Hu Lian from the bottom of their hearts.
**As the leader of the Central Plains Field Army, he and Hu Lian launched many fierce confrontations on the Central Plains battlefield.
In order to win Hu Lian, four "fox hunting" plans were carefully designed, however, these plans ultimately failed to achieve the desired results.
So much so that *** sighed: "This Hu Lian is really as brave as a tiger and cunning as a fox!."”
So, how did *** and Hu Lian fight in the Central Plains War?**What was the final result of the four proposed "fox hunts"?
From the beginning of September to the beginning of October 1946, Qiu Qingquan was in the north, Hu Lian was in the south, and there was a fierce battle with *** in Juye and other places in Nanlu.
In order to avoid multi-front battles and cut off the connection between Hu Lian and Qiu Qingquan, ** carefully designed a series of ingenious tactics. He set up a pocket array on the battlefield and skillfully waited for Hu Lian to be deceived. At the heart of this strategy is to divide the enemy army and put it in a passive position.
**'s combat deployment was particularly ingenious, he mainly ordered Chen Zaidao's second column to hold Longguji, so as to lure Qiu Qingquan's troops to come and besiege it, with the aim of trapping it firmly in this position. At the same time, he sent a part of the elite troops to deal with Hu Lian, and adopted the flexible tactics of resisting and retreating, gradually distancing Hu Lian from Qiu Qingquan.
Subsequently, the third column of **commanding***, Yang Yong's seventh column and Wang Hongkun's sixth column, a total of 27 regiments, successfully surrounded Hu Lian's 11th Division.
Originally, he wanted to capture Hu Lian alive here, and all the troops bravely attacked under the command and went forward one after another, but they didn't expect that due to continuous battles, neither side could get a rest.
In the fierce fighting, the two sides continued to fight for a full 10 days, but the battle situation was deadlocked, no significant progress was made, and the first "fox hunt" plan was not successful.
In the eyes of ***, this fox is far from being as easy to catch as he imagined, so he said at the time: "Hu Lian, this fox, like a hedgehog, shrunk into a ball, is really difficult to deal with for a while." ”
After listening to ***'s words, *** was the political commissar at that time, and he also said with a smile: "If it's not easy to deal with, I'll clean him up later, let him go first, don't fight a war of attrition." ”
So, in such a situation, the two sides withdrew separately and did not continue to fight.
On April 20, 1946, ** and *** issued the "Deployment of the Battle of Western Henan".
The plan is clearly based on the first section.
2. The Fourth Column, the 10th Huaye Column, and the main force of the Tongbai Military Region are under the unified command of Chen GengAt the same time, the first.
III. Sixth, the Ninth Column and Huayedi.
3. The Eighth Column was designated as a support corps and was responsible for carrying out the task of pincering and sending reinforcements. The Battle of Western Henan was launched on May 2 and lasted until May 17, ending in victory.
In this battle, our side annihilated the enemy's regular army and security forces2More than 10,000 people have successfully conquered Zhenping, Neixiang, Xichuan, Dengxian, Laohekou and other places.
Ling Yun, who was stationed in Nanyang, was desperate for help, and Hu Lian was helpless and prepared to lead his troops to come to the aid from Zhumadian.
But after learning about it, he quickly laid a "fox hunting net" in the mountains near Zhumadian, waiting for Hu Lian to take the bait.
However, Hu Lian showed excellent tactical insight and sensed that a trap was ahead. So, he decided to give up the confrontation with ***, keep silent, and let the vanguard move on.
At the same time, he carried out a large-scale requisition of husbands and grain in Zhumadian, creating a false impression of nervousness and panic before the large army marched out.
**After learning of this, he ordered the ambush troops to spare the vanguard of the 18th Army and wait for its main force alone.
However, the scheme did not work out. The vanguard entered Nanyang unharmed, while Hu Lian's main force shrank its head back after a day's march. The ambush troops waited in vain for two days and finally returned in vain.
** The plan to encircle and annihilate the "Fox" for the second time fell through.
On June 18, 1948, Huaye Chen and Tang Corps launched a surprise blitzkrieg, aiming at Kaifeng, the capital of Henan Province. When Chiang Kai-shek learned of this, he immediately flew to Zhengzhou and organized various units to launch a multi-channel counterattack.
In Qiu Qingquan's Fifth Army was defeated by Hua Ye.
The 1st, 4th, and 6th columns were blocked east of Kaifeng and could not provide assistance in time. At the same time, Sun Yuanliang's corps was also cut off from Zhongmu by Zhongye Ninth Column and other departments from Zhengzhou.
Hu Lian's Eighteenth Army received an order to rush to Kaifeng and rushed to help from Zhumadian and Xiping.
After receiving this news, ** urgently ordered the Huaye Tenth Column and ordered it to immediately go north to block the surging tide of the enemy's 18th Army's mechanized troops advancing north.
The 28th Division of the 10th Column, under the leadership of division commander Xiao Feng, carried out a day and night forced march, marching 180 miles throughout the whole process, and was the first to arrive at the blocking site.
Subsequently, the commander of the column, Song Shilun, personally arrived and immediately commanded the first.
Two. Ten. The 8th and 29th Divisions coordinated their operations and successfully smashed the continuous onslaught of the infantry, artillery, and tanks deployed by Hu Lian.
Despite the terrible cost of the fierce battle, with no one to eat or drink, and almost depleted of ammunition, the blocking force showed great courage and defeated the enemy.
In order to further crush the enemy's attempts to come to the north, it was decided to abandon the first line of blocking positions, move to the second line positions, and try to pin down the enemy and lead him into the trap set by our side.
While Hu Lian and Song Shilun were fighting fiercely in Shangcai, it also provided a rare opportunity for the Nakano troops to annihilate Hu Lian.
Knowing that Hu Lian's Eighteenth Army could not advance under the strong resistance of Huaye's Ten Columns, ** decisively decided to try to capture this "fox" again. He commanded Nakano.
The 1st and 3rd columns were outflanked from both flanks of Hu Lian, planning to surround the 18th Army Corps.
However, Hu Lian's sensitivity to the situation made him quickly perceive bad signs, and quickly led his troops to retreat, stationed in Shangcai County and its vicinity, and coordinated with other enemy forces.
** Judging that the time was not ripe, I had to give up the "Fox Hunt" operation.
In the Huaihai Campaign, in the Shuangduiji area of Mengcheng County, Henan Province.
The 12th Corps of the Kuomintang, under the command of Huang Wei and Hu Lian, tried to rescue the besieged Huang Baitao Corps, but was surrounded by the Central Plains and East China Field Army in pocket formations.
This time, Hu Lian proposed the "hedgehog swollen snake method", that is, first narrowing the defensive line, and then suddenly counterattacking, in an attempt to break through.
However, the pocket array of the People's Liberation Army (PLA) became tighter and tighter, the Kuomintang army lacked food and ammunition, and the airborne supplies were insufficient, and the situation became more and more critical.
On December 12, the Central Plains and East China Field Army launched a general attack on the 12th Corps of the Kuomintang. On the afternoon of the 15th, Huang Wei and Hu Lian decided to break through separately, but Huang Wei was captured and Hu Lian escaped.
In this way, **'s four fox hunts all ended in failure.
