As one of the three giants of Jinggangshan that year, the ability of ** should be undoubted, but after entering Lu, he was defeated repeatedly, which not only caused the morale of our army to be low, but also some generals complained about him.
In fact, the situation in the Shandong Military Region also gave ** a headache, and immediately discussed this problem, and also thought that ** had indeed performed poorly recently, and then ** decided to change the command and appoint *** as the commander of the mountains. But such a decision also bears huge risks, and it is not a good thing to change generals on the spot, plus the army is already unstable, and no one can predict the outcome after the change.
* After learning the news, his heart was very depressed, during that time he often couldn't sleep at night, smoking all night long, of course, he was not depressed, but because he was also reflecting on what was the reason for his several defeats, how to recover the losses in the future, once he once said that he was better to engage in cultural work. But having said that, he is still very unwilling to accept past failures.
In October, he took the initiative to write a letter to the Eighth Division of Shanye, not only admitting his mistakes, but also hoping to give himself another chance, and he did get this opportunity in the end, thanks to the fact that the Military Commission had decided to replace the military commissar at that time.
At the end of 1946, Huaye was established, ** still as his commander, the deputy commander was Su Yu, in March of the following year, Chiang Kai-shek sent 450,000 troops to attack Shandong, Huaye quickly counterattacked, in April 1947, Huaye sent ten columns to march to Tai'an, the enemy army responsible for defending the city is the reorganization of the 72nd Division, because most of the members are veterans, experienced and strong combat effectiveness, plus the defense is proper, it is not easy to capture.
But Huaye is not only the goal of capturing Tai'an, the integrated 75th and 85th divisions that came to support are also one of the main goals, the battle only lasted one night, the tenth column successfully defeated the enemy forces on the periphery, and soon succeeded in occupying the high ground, but the enemy's support has not arrived, Chen Su and the two directly decided to fake the real play, from the feigned siege to the real attack, and soon succeeded in taking Tai'an, annihilating the enemy army 240,000 people, and then launched an attack on Ningyang and other places, after learning about Hu Lian's dynamics, ** made up his mind to swallow it, but Hu Lian's army was already strong, and he still escaped.
After Huaye adjusted his strategy in time, intercepted the enemy's intelligence when he marched into Yishui, and learned that Zhang Lingfu's integrated 74th Division would launch a full-scale attack the next morning20,000 people, Zhang Lingfu was also directly killed by our army, this battle made Chiang Kai-shek sad, but also shocked at home and abroad.
After this battle, the cooperation between Chen Su and Su has become more and more tacit, and it can really be said that Chen does not leave Su and Su does not leave Chen. **This person has been on the battlefield countless times, but he has lost several times in Shandong in a row, such a situation is very rare, and he was almost replaced directly at the most critical time, and he was also questioned in front of his subordinates.
As the saying goes, no one can do anything wrong unless he is a sage, and which general has never lost a battle in his life? **At that time, it was just a detour, in the process of proving his strength, Su Yu played a great role, but, if not**, Su Yu could not fight wholeheartedly, it can be said that the two people complement each other and cooperate with each other, Huaye's achievements are due to the two of them.
