Turning over the historical picture of war, there are countless examples of winning with tanks. And Liao Ruoxing Chen is an outstanding person in the group army and the army who uses tanks as a fast cluster. General Nikolai Fedorovici VaTuting, a hero of the Soviet Union, is such a rare military genius. He makes good use of tanks as a fast cluster.

Wa Tuting, 190 1 12 was born in the town of Chipsinor, Belgoro, Soviet Union. 1920 joined the Soviet red army in April and embarked on a military career. Tuting has served as platoon leader, company commander, staff officer, division chief of staff, first minister of military command, deputy chief of staff, chief of staff, army chief of staff, commander, and deputy chief of staff of the Soviet General Staff. During this period, he graduated from poltava Infantry School (1922), Kiev Senior Joint Military School (1924), Fulongzhi Military Academy (1929), Battle Department of Fulongzhi Military Academy (1934) and Military Academy of the General Staff, laying a solid military theoretical foundation. Wa Tuting is proficient in military history, the history of the First World War and the operational theory under modern advanced conditions, and is good at using theory to creatively guide operational practice.

As a senior commander, Tuting has commanded many major battles. He can attack and defend, and he has made great achievements. Wa Tuting's command art is outstanding in: encircling the enemy's heavily armed groups, using tanks as the rapid cluster of group army, using tank group army as the rapid cluster of group army, implementing battlefield maneuver and organizing campaign defense.

1942, as the representative of the high command, Wa Tuting, deputy chief of staff of the Soviet General Staff, successfully commanded the Bryansk army to fight; After being transferred to the commander of the Voronezh army in July, he commanded the army to actively organize defense to resist the attack from the superior enemy in Voronezh direction; 10 June, he was transferred to the commander of the Southwest Army and commanded the army to participate in the famous Battle of Stalingrad, showing superb command art ... In the Battle of Stalingrad, Wa Tuting participated in the planning of the offensive campaign and proposed that the Southwest Army, the Don River Army and the Stalingrad Army simultaneously broke through the defense of the enemy in the northwest and south of Stalingrad; Then meet in the depth of the German army, cut off the German reinforcements, and surround the German army (more than 20 divisions) in Stalingrad. The bold proposal was adopted. Therefore, after breaking through the German lines, the left wing of the Army under the command of Wa Tuting put into a rapid cluster composed of two tank troops, quickly pushed forward the battle, quickly occupied the battle support points, and formed an internal front with the mechanized troops of the Don River Army and Stalingrad Army, compressing the Germans in the area of 1500 square kilometers. Later, the fifth army of tanks attacked in depth, forming positive foreign relations with friendly forces, thus making the 250 thousand Germans in Stalingrad become turtles in a jar. In this campaign, Wa Tuting successfully solved the problem of using quick corps and legion to develop victory in the attack with flexible tactics and ingenious tank application. It was in this battle that Wa Tuting was awarded the rank of general. In February, 65438, he commanded this army and the Japanese left-wing troops in Voroney to carry out the "Little Saturn" campaign, creating a successful example of organizing and implementing a powerful flank assault while continuing frontal assault.

After preparing for defense in Voronezh, Tuting broke away from convention. Before the German attack, he unexpectedly countered the German attacking troops with artillery, which greatly weakened their assault force and forced the Germans to attack passively. The Germans put about 1000 tanks into Voronezh's army. Wa Tuting resisted the German assault with three army groups and 1 tank army group. The Germans couldn't attack for a long time and wanted to attack from the southeast and take Kursk directly. Tuting saw through his attempt, so he put all the forces of the base camp reserve, the fifth army of the guards tanks and the fifth army of the guards, plus some forces of the first army of tanks, the sixth army of the guards and the seventh army into anti-assault. The 5th Army of Guards Tanks met the SS tanks and the 3rd Tank Army in prokhorov Card, and the biggest tank encounter in World War II took place. 1 200 tanks fought. The Soviets won the encounter and the Germans were forced to retreat to their starting positions. Tuting seized the fighter plane, so he organized the Japanese First Tank Army and the Fifth Tank Army in Voroney into a fast cluster, which was responsible for the main attack breakthrough and adopted the tactics of dividing, encircling and annihilating each other, thus winning the battle. This campaign fully demonstrated Wa Tuting's superb command art of not sticking to the art of war, sizing up the situation and improvising.
