In the Northeast Battlefield, Siye has made great achievements, and there are also many famous generals in this army, Han Xianchu is one of them, he is very famous in the Northeast, as soon as the whirlwind commander came out, the enemy army was immediately frightened, it is conceivable how high Han Xianchu's ability is. However, what is surprising is that after Siye formed 4 corps, Han Xianchu did not become the commander of the corps, but Deng Hua was appointed as the commander of the 15th Corps. What's going on here?

In 1948, Dongye became an independent field army unit, and then two corps were formed, of which the first corps was mainly composed of the original South Manchurian troops, with Xiao Jinguang as the commander. The Second Corps was composed of the forward command post of the Jireliao Military Region, and Cheng Zihua served as the commander. In the Liaoshen Campaign, these two corps played a great role. The 12th and 13th Corps were established on the basis of these two corps. In the Battle of Tianjin, Liu Yalou successfully attacked the city within 34 hours with the strength of 5 armies, so when the corps was formed in Siye, Xiao Jinguang, Cheng Zihua and Liu Yalou could all serve as the commander of the corps. Compared with them, Deng Hua is a latecomer, and he is low-key, so in the impression of many people, his ability does not seem to be very strong, but this is just that people don't understand him, so they will leave this one-sided impression.

At the end of 1949, Siye issued an order asking Deng Hua to lead the 15th Corps to command the 40th Army and the 43rd Army to prepare for the liberation of Hainan Island. The reason for this situation is mainly because Han Xianchu advocated that it was better to fight early than late. Deng Hua was very cautious, and our army had little experience in sea-crossing operations at that time, so the plan given by Deng Hua was to use the plan of smuggling a small army to transport part of the troops over first, which was used to meet the large army, and then after the large army landed, one division was dispatched from each of the two armies to disperse the enemy's forces. In fact, this is also the scheme that was implemented during the later war. But Han Xianchu did play a role in the war, especially in the ferry.

Originally, according to Deng Hua's plan, he could only land on the island in June to fight, but Han Xianchu learned about the sea monsoon through the local situation, so he proposed a plan to land on the island in advance, Deng Hua did not agree at first, and he finally nodded until April. And the reason why he did not agree was mainly because he wanted to make all the preparations for the sea-crossing operation in advance, and at the same time he had to go to the front line to understand the actual situation so that he could conduct a detailed investigation. It wasn't until he finally made a full argument with Han Xianchu and determined the feasibility of the plan that he finally nodded and agreed. It can also be seen from this war that Han Xianchu has a fiery personality, he is the best at fighting strange battles, and he can surprise every time, so that the enemy is completely defenseless, compared with him, Deng Hua is calm and pragmatic, and he looks at the problem more comprehensively and cautiously, his character is destined to make him more of a sense of the overall situation, which is also the most important to his superiors. Later, on the Korean battlefield, his ability was particularly outstanding, and ** this person knew his subordinates very well, before entering North Korea, he proposed to ** that the commander of the 15th Corps replace the commander of the 13th Corps to rush to the Korean battlefield. From this aspect, it can be seen that ** attaches more importance to Deng Hua's ability. On the Korean battlefield, Han Xianchu was the commander of the corps, but Deng Hua was the first deputy commander, responsible for fully assisting Mr. Peng.

In addition, there is another reason why Han Xianchu did not become the commander of the corps, and this reason is that the process of the Liberation War is getting faster and faster, so the 21 brigades in the northeast have not formed seven corps, but if seven corps are formed that year, there will naturally be two more corps when the corps is formed, and according to the situation of that year, the commanders of these two corps will be Han Xianchu and Huang Yongsheng. When the title was conferred in 1955, Deng Hua and Han Xianchu both became generals, and Deng Hua was in the seventh place, and Han Xianchu was in the eleventh place, which is very revealing.
