Su Yu was criticized, and his old subordinate Wang Bi became General Su Yu and said a fair word, which aroused the praise of Mr. He: Wang Bi is precious, not afraid of the environment at the time, and the atmosphere is bright and upright to speak for the old superiors, which is worthy of deep friendship.
Wang Bicheng. General Wang Bicheng's battle of fame was the attack on Jurong County during the New Fourth Army, and it was also the first unit to capture the county town from the Japanese army after the New Fourth Army advanced into Jiangnan. Before this battle, Wang Bicheng ordered people to go to Jurong County to reconnoiter the reality of the Japanese army, and the scouts came back and told Wang Bicheng: There are only more than 40 Japanese puppet troops in Jurong County, and there is no main force of the Japanese army.
Wang Bicheng made careful arrangements, first ordered three company commanders and reconnaissance platoons to set up an assault team to infiltrate the county seat in advance, cut off the first line in the city, so that the enemy could not contact the enemy on the periphery in the first time, and the assault team infiltrated the city and knocked out the enemy's command headquarters with lightning speed. Jurong County was conquered under the internal and external attack of the New Fourth Army.
General Wang Bicheng discovered a rule in the battle against the Japanese army, the Japanese army did not fight at night, so he ordered the Fourth Regiment of the New Fourth Army to give full play to the characteristics of our army's night combat and close combat. In a battle, our army did not conquer the position during the day, and at night Wang Bicheng took advantage of the lax garrison of the Japanese army when he was resting, and ordered the troops to give full play to the advantages of the New Fourth Army's "night battle and close combat", and Wang Bicheng personally led the team to conquer the position of the Japanese puppet army in night battle and close combat, and this battle was also the first time that the New Fourth Army defeated the enemy in a night battle. In the subsequent battles, Wang Bicheng gave full play to the advantages of our army's night battles and close combat, repeatedly defeated the Japanese puppet army, and had a very high prestige in the Jiangnan area.
The people in the Jiangnan area affectionately called Wang Bicheng's fourth regiment the "Night Tiger Regiment" and called Wang Bicheng "Wang Laohu". Wang Bicheng created a number of firsts in the New Fourth Army. In order to smash the enemy's sweep of the base area, Wang Bicheng for the first time in the New Fourth Army used the tactics of encirclement and reinforcement to attack the Japanese army's important stronghold on the Liwu Highway Dongwan, attracting many enemies to come to the rescue, he led the troops to ambush the enemy's inevitable place, severely attacked more than 110 enemies, and smashed the Japanese army's attempt to divide and encircle the base area. Then Wang Bicheng made a long-distance non-stop attack on the enemy's stronghold, and also became the first unit of the New Fourth Army to shoot down a Japanese plane.
In this process, a comrade-in-arms died in the battle, and left a blanket for Wang Bicheng on the occasion of his death, which was covered by the general for more than 60 years, which shows that General Wang Bicheng is affectionate and righteous from this side.
Wang Bicheng's many "firsts of the New Fourth Army" attracted Su Yu's attention, and he cooperated with Tao Yong in the decisive battle of Huangqiao, and under Su Yu's wise leadership, defeated the stubborn enemy of the Kuomintang and further consolidated the Huangqiao base area.
After the Southern Anhui Incident, Wang Bicheng served as the brigade commander of the 2nd Brigade of Su Yu's First Division, and it is worth mentioning that Su Yu's three brigade commanders were Ye Fei, Wang Bicheng and Tao Yong, who became the three iron fists in Su Yu's hands in the Liberation War.
In the early days of the War of Liberation, in the seven battles and seven victories in the Soviet Union and China, Wang Bicheng led the Sixth Division to play the characteristics of "fierce fighting, fierce rush and fierce pursuit", and under the command of Su Yu, he repeatedly attacked the enemy by surprise, and in the seven battles and seven victories, Wang Bicheng commanded the Sixth Division of the Central China Field Army to participate in five of them, winning all battles, and annihilating the enemy 1More than 60,000 people.
Wang Bicheng's Sixth Division was reorganized into the Sixth Column of the Central China Field Army, while Wang Bicheng's Sixth Column was good at fighting vicious and tough battles.
At the beginning of the Liberation War, the 74th Division, the main force of ace was dispatched to attack Lianshui, the core area of our Central China Field Army, and other units were afraid of Zhang Lingfu's integrated 74th Division. This unit is indeed different from other ** troops, and the characteristics of this unit are also fierce and fierce, and it also likes to fight night battles and close combat. According to the veteran's later recollection: **The 74th Army was even more difficult to fight than the Japanese army. Wang Bicheng was excited. Wang Bicheng said: I will compete with Zhang Lingfu's 74th Division to see whose fists are hard.
Su Yu deliberately sent Wang Laohu's six columns to defend Lianshui City and the enemy's integrated 74th Division (more than 30,000 people, second to none in the combat effectiveness of the **) ace to ace, Wang Bicheng and the enemy's 74th Division fought twice in Lianshui City, the first time Wang Bicheng withstood the enemy's 74th Division's tidal attack, both sides can be described as chess opponents, both paid a heavy price.
The second attack on Lianshui City, the enemy changed the tactics in time, first feinted to attack the northeast corner of Lianshui City, saw that Wang Bicheng transferred the main force in time to the northeast of Lianshui City, the enemy shook a shot in the south of the city, saw that Wang Bicheng did not move, only to reveal the real killing move, concentrated all the firepower and troops to the north of the city suddenly launched an attack, the change of the enemy caught Wang Bicheng off guard, and could only give up Lianshui City. Seeing that Wang Bicheng lost Lianshui City, Mr. Chen was very annoyed and threatened to remove the commander of Wang Bicheng's sixth column, but it was Su Yu who came out in time to help Wang Bicheng say good things to keep Wang Bicheng's commander of the sixth column. Afterwards, Wang Bicheng said to Su Yu: In the future, when dealing with the enemy's 74th Division, we must not forget the Sixth Column.
Sure enough, at the critical moment of the battle of Meng Lianggu, Su Yu once again remembered Wang Bicheng's six columns, and ordered Wang Bicheng to lead the troops to cut off Zhang Lingfu's retreat from the battlements. Immediately ordered his main division to occupy Duozhuang by surprise and cut off the last retreat of the enemy's reorganized 74th Division, Zhang Lingfu did not expect that his old opponent Wang Bicheng would suddenly kill from behind.
Wang Bicheng made reasonable use of his forces to kill Zhang Lingfu from behind, and at the same time sent the necessary troops to attack the enemy's core position on the top of the mountain in a roundabout way. At the most critical moment of the battle, Wang Bicheng used his last reserve: the secret service group. Attacking and advancing towards Zhang Lingfu's headquarters, Wang Bicheng ordered the intelligence department to listen to the radio of the enemy's headquarters, and sure enough, through the radio interception: Wang Bicheng found that the enemy's headquarters was halfway up the mountain. So Wang Bicheng ordered the special service group to attack the enemy's headquarters, the special service group suffered the enemy's big losses in the two Lianshui battles, and after discovering the enemy's headquarters, they attacked the enemy's headquarters with their lives, becoming the first unit to attack the enemy's headquarters, Zhang Lingfu was also in the gun
According to the confession of the enemy's prisoners: As early as after the two battles of Lianshui, the reorganization of the 74th Division was already seriously damaged, and it was not replenished in time.
It is worth mentioning that after Zhang Lingfu's death, Mr. Chen and Su Yu also specially bought a coffin for Zhang Lingfu to bury Zhang Lingfu. I guess it's a need to focus on the heart!
In the battle of eastern Henan, our army was almost surrounded by the enemy, and it was Wang Bicheng who was ordered to lead the troops to fight and rush fiercely, conquering Longwangdian in one fell swoop, and capturing the enemy's corps commander Shounian alive, which played a key role in the victory of the Eastern Henan Campaign. In the Huaihai Campaign, Wang Bicheng commanded the Sixth Column, with the cooperation of brother troops, to defeat the enemy's two armies, and well cooperated with Huaye's main force to completely annihilate Huang Baitao's corps.
According to incomplete statistics, in the War of Liberation, Wang Bicheng commanded the six columns to destroy more than 190,000 enemy troops. Later, Wang Bicheng served as the commander of the 24th Army of the People's Liberation Army and the deputy commander of the 7th Corps, and the deputy commander and acting commander of the 9th Corps of the Volunteer Army during the period of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea.
In the Great Medal of Founding Generals, Wang Bicheng was named the Founding Lieutenant General. Those who know Wang Bicheng know that he attaches great importance to love and righteousness and has a good character.
Wang Bicheng sneered: I don't know what you mean by Su Yu's "mistakes", I only know that Comrade Su Yu fought very well, as early as the Jinan Campaign was still in progress, Su Yu had already begun to plan the next war: the Huaihai Campaign, and had made a major contribution to the decisive battle against Huaihai. Besides, Comrade Su Yu gave two commanders for the sake of the unity of the troops during the war years.
This person is Lieutenant General Wang Bicheng, who is upright and upright, and helped Su Yu speak when he was in trouble.
Wang Bicheng later became the commander of the Kunming Military Region, and the general originally had the opportunity to participate in the self-defense counterattack against Vietnam, but out of comprehensive considerations, he was transferred to General Yang Dezhi and let Wang Bicheng be the commander of the Wuhan Military Region. Why? It is because Yang Dezhi was in Vietnam during the War to Resist US Aggression, he was a member of the Chinese delegation, entered Vietnam to guide Vietnam to resist US aggression and aid Vietnam, and he was very familiar with the terrain of northern Vietnam and had the experience of fighting in the jungle, because he served as an adviser to the Vietnamese army in Vietnam and was familiar with the operational characteristics of the Vietnamese army, and this was also targeted.
Although Wang Bicheng did not participate in the self-defense counterattack against Vietnam, but at the insistence of the general, the general's son and favorite little daughter participated in the war, and even the daughter-in-law who was two months pregnant went to the war.
