In the early morning of November 25, 1948, Nakano's army took swift action and surrounded Huang Wei's corps in a small area centered on Shuangduiji in the southwest of Suxian County.
Huang Wei has experienced many years of tempering in **, and knows the bad habit of not saving when he sees death. So, he seized the opportunity that the encirclement had not yet been completely closed, and organized a lean team to try to break through.
Unfortunately, his breakthrough plan was broken by Liao Yunzhou, who had revolted before the battle, and the breakout operation ended in failure. Since then, Huang Wei has looked at everyone a little like Liao Yunzhou, and he no longer has the courage to try to break through.
While Nakano managed to surround Huang, they also faced a huge challenge along the way. In the process of advancing into the Dabie Mountains, in order to pass through the Yellow Flood Area, Nakano had to blow up some heavy **.
After entering Dabie Mountain, they were surrounded by hundreds of thousands of ** led by Bai Chongxi, and although they held out for more than half a year, they were finally forced to retreat due to heavy losses and the reduction of troops.
Although Nakano later won several battles and captured some equipment, their strength still did not return to its original level. In the Battle of Shuangduiji, although Nakano's strength was barely equal to that of the enemy with 120,000 troops, many of them were new fighters who had just joined and had weak combat effectiveness.
The Huang Wei Corps has a main force like the 18th Army, and in terms of equipment, the gap between the two sides is even more obvious. Huang Wei's corps had heavy artillery and tanks, as well as aircraft support, while Nakano's heavy artillery was only a few dozen pieces, and there was a shortage of shells.
In this situation, Nakano's heroic actions are already quite remarkable, and there is no doubt that there is a huge challenge to completely destroy the enemy. In order to weaken the enemy's firepower superiority, Nakano launched a large-scale close maneuver operation, gradually approaching the core area of the double stack through dense communication trenches and communication ditches.
On December 5, 1948, Nakano formed three attack groups in the east, west, and south, commanded by Chen Geng, **, and Wang Jinshan, respectively, and launched a full-scale attack on the enemy.
In order to survive, the enemy was commanded by Huang Wei and Hu Lian and resisted desperately. Every advance of Nakano faced a life-and-death test, and the battle between the 9th and 11th columns at Zhangweizi was particularly fierce, and it took three days of hard fighting to overcome.
In this battle, Chen Honghan, chief of staff of the 9th Column, Lu Guanghua, instructor of the 3rd Battalion of the 76th Regiment, and He Bingqing, deputy regiment commander of the 11th Column, and commander of the assault battalion, died heroically.
Whether it is the most captured ammunition, prisoners, daily necessities or even pieces of paper, all must be handed over to the fraternal troops, and no one can steal or set up ambushes. ”
With the addition of the three columns in Nakano, especially the special forces column, the offensive firepower of our army has been significantly improved. In just three days, the 120,000 horses of Huang Wei's army were completely annihilated, Huang Wei was defeated and captured, and Hu Lian escaped by chance.
After the war, General Chen Shiyu left all the spoils of war to Nakano. In the subsequent Great Southwest Campaign, the strong and strong Nakano destroyed 930,000 enemies in 57 days like the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves, which was almost equivalent to the total number of enemies destroyed in the Liaoshen Campaign and the Pingjin Campaign.
