Some people say that there are two tyrants in the army, one is Xu Shiyou and the other is Han Xianchu.
General Xu Shiyou is one of the fierce generals of the People's Liberation Army, and he is brave and invincible in battle. During the Red Army, he often took the lead and served as the captain of the death squad many times
During the Red Army, Xu Shiyou was a member of the Red Fourth Front Army. During the fourth anti-encirclement and suppression campaign of the Red Fourth Front Army, due to the outnumbered enemy, the Kuomintang army had 300,000 troops, and the Red Fourth Front Army had more than 40,000 people. Under the heavy encirclement and suppression of the Kuomintang army.
The Red Fourth Front Army was forced to transfer, and more than 20,000 people of the Red Fourth Front Army under the leadership of Xu Shuai were ready to move to the Sichuan region.
In the battle for the transfer of the Red Fourth Front Army, Xu Shiyou commanded the 34th Regiment to fight bravely with the blocking Kuomintang army at Manchuan Pass, and fought a bloody way for the main force of the Red Fourth Front Army.
In this transfer battle, Xu Shiyou made great contributions to the Red Fourth Front Army and was praised by the Front Army Headquarters.
In 1933, during the siege of the anti-six-way in the Sichuan-Shaanxi Soviet District, Xu Shiyou led his troops to participate in the defense of Wanyuan.
In the Battle of Wanyuan, Xu Shiyou commanded a division against 4 brigades of the Sichuan Army. Four brigades of the Sichuan Army made several group charges. However, Xu Shiyou held his position and did not move, and after 3 months of fierce fighting, Xu Shiyou defeated the outnumbered Sichuan army. He also made the first contribution to the defense of Wanyuan.
Xu Shiyou's temper is not afraid of heaven and earth, he is not afraid of being very hot, he is jealous and hateful, but he has a sense of justice.
Why is Xu Shiyou's personality hot, in February 1939, Xu Shiyou participated in and commanded the Xiangchenggu ambush, and after the victory of the Xiangchenggu ambush, the 386 Brigade held a celebration banquet. In the celebration banquet, Xu Shiyou and political commissar Wang Xinting had a fight. The deputy brigade commander and the political commissar had a fight, so that the brigade commander had no choice. In the end, Xu Shiyou was transferred to Shandong.
In 1942, Xu Shiyou served as the commander of the Jiaodong Military Region and thwarted the Japanese army's sweeps in the Jiaodong area many times. The great man said that he made Jiaodong half the sky popular.
In the War of Liberation, after participating in the Battle of Laiwu and the Battle of Menglianggu, especially in the Battle of Jinan, he served as the commander-in-chief, led 140,000 troops, conquered Jinan in eight days and eight nights, and annihilated the 100,000 Kuomintang troops under Wang Yaowu.
When he was the commander of the Shandong Corps, he had four columns under his command.
Another general, Han Xianchu, is also a fierce general, ** said that he has a bold character. For example, in the Battle of Zhiluodian, he led his troops to annihilate a battalion of the enemy and more than 100 militia members near Shuangchi Town.
But he didn't receive any orders in this operation, and he was the one who took the initiative to fight him in a battle, so Han Xianchu is also called Han Daring.
Han Xianchu participated in the revolution when he was a teenager and persisted in the struggle in the Hubei-Henan-Anhui Soviet region for ten years. During the Long March of the Red 25th Army, Han Xianchu made great contributions many times.
In the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Han Xianchu served as the deputy head of the 688th Regiment, led his troops to fight in Shanxi and Hebei, and participated in the construction of the anti-Japanese base in southern Hebei.
In the later stage of the Anti-Japanese War, he entered the Kang University to study. In the War of Liberation, he served in the Northeast Field Army, made many meritorious contributions in the Northeast War of Liberation, participated in the Xinkailing Campaign and the three times to protect the Linjiang River in the south of the Yangtze River, and was brave and invincible in the Northeast Battlefield, leading the troops to act quickly and attack fiercely, called Commander Whirlwind.
What really made Han Xianchu famous was the Battle of Hainan Island, the Battle of Hainan Island Han Xianchu overrode public opinion, and suggested that the wooden sailing ships should be concentrated to launch the Hainan Island Campaign as soon as possible, and Han Xianchu led the 40th Army to take the lead in the Battle of Hainan Island. He made great achievements in the liberation of Hainan Island.
In the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, he served as the deputy commander of the Volunteer Army, and fought many beautiful battles in the 38th Army. He was praised many times by the commander.
Although Xu Shiyou and Han Xianchu are bold, they also have people who are afraid, if the two of them are afraid of among the founding generals, it is really difficult to find, but in front of one person, these two people are obedient.
This person is the *** marshal of one of the ten founding marshals. Some people say that Xu Shiyou and Han Xianchu are not even afraid of ***, they will be afraid of *** marshal?
In fact, these two people are always obedient in front of ***.
Xu Shiyou was a member of the Red Fourth Front Army during the Red Army, but he was the commander-in-chief of the Red Fourth Front Army.
The generals of the Red Fourth Front Army learned almost all of their fighting skills from Xu Shuai. When Xu Shuai arrived in Hubei, Henan, and Anhui, there were only 300 people in the Hubei-Henan-Anhui Soviet District. A gang of guerrillas, so to speak.
As for regular warfare, guerrilla warfare, most people still have not seen it.
Under the leadership of Xu Shuai, the Hubei-Henan-Anhui Soviet Region won three battles and three victories, and the troops were expanded at once. The commanders and fighters of Hubei, Henan and Anhui all gave Xu Shuai's command art a thumbs up, and admired this weak commander from the bottom of their hearts.
Under the leadership of Xu Shuai, the Hubei-Henan-Anhui Soviet Region won three encirclement and suppression battles of the Kuomintang army, and in the anti-encirclement and suppression campaign, the Kuomintang army dispatched more troops each time. In the end, Lao Jiang actually took command in person, commanding 300,000 troops to fight a decisive battle with the Red Fourth Front Army.
Due to Zhang Guotao's erroneous interference, the Red Fourth Front Army failed to break the enemy's encirclement in the fourth anti-encirclement campaign. In the end, the Red Fourth Front could only be transferred to other regions.
At the moment of life and death of the Red Fourth Front Army, Xu Shuai led 20,000 Red Army to cross the Pinghan Railway through northern Hubei and western Henan, and killed in Sichuan. Xu Shiyou is under the leadership of Xu Shuai, and he has become a brave and invincible commander step by step.
As long as Xu Shiyou follows Xu Shuai's command, he will win when he meets the enemy, and Xu Shiyou admires his commander-in-chief from the bottom of his heart.
Xu Shiyou mentioned Commander-in-Chief Xu many times in his memoirs of the Red Army during his ten years, and he himself believed that the Red Fourth Front Army could move from weak to strong, which had a lot to do with the commander-in-chief of the Red Fourth Army.
Xu Shiyou often imitated Xu Shuai's tactics and strategies, and although he only learned one and a half moves, he was already able to become an excellent commander of our army.
Why is Xu Shiyou afraid of Marshal ***, Xu Shiyou made a major mistake during the Yan'an period. But he didn't admit his mistakes, and it was Xu Shuai who told him before he realized his mistake.
When he was in Yan'an, Xu Shiyou and a group of people often watched the play and broke in without taking a ticket. The conductor had nothing to do about these fierce generals.
**After the marshal knew, he took a horse and sat at the ticket office, Xu Shiyou and his party went to the theater with a big grin, when they walked to the ticket office and saw Xu Shuai there, Xu Shiyou and others immediately turned around and left. It can also be said to be scared away.
Han Xianchu was also a member of the former Red Fourth Front Army, but during the Red Army, Han Xianchu's position was low, and there were few opportunities to meet the commander-in-chief.
However, in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, in late April 1938, Han Xianchu led the 689th Regiment and a unit of the 129th Division in the southeast of Shanxi to form the Ludong Column to accept the leadership of Marshal ***.
Under the leadership of Xu Shuai, the anti-Japanese base area in southern Hebei successively conquered Weixian, Guangzong, Pingxiang, Julu, Nangong, Linqing and other areas, and also annihilated a large number of Japanese puppet troops.
Under the leadership of Xu Shuai, Han Xianchu's tactical and strategic application has not been shortly improved.
Later, Han Xianchu and Xu Shuai went to Yan'an together, Han Xianchu became a student of the Anti-Japanese Military and Political University, and the ** marshal served as the president of the Anti-Japanese Military and Political University
Xu Shuai became Han Xianchu's teacher again, and at the Anti-Japanese Military and Political University, Han Xianchu and Xu Shuai systematically studied some of his strategies and tactics. For Han Xianchu's military knowledge, Xu Shuai gave a lot of help.
Even Han Xianchu's marriage was helped by Xu Shuai. It can be said that Xu Shuai is Han Xianchu's teacher and benefactor, and Han Xianchu admires Xu Shuai's character and command ability psychologically and spiritually.
Therefore, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, Han Xianchu often went to Xu Shuai's house
