Du Yu Ming likes playing with guns since he was a child. At the age of twelve, he attended Chengjiagu Primary School run by his cousin Li Dingming. I got the guidance of this strict teacher in my study. After the death of his grandparents and uncle Du, Du Liangkui has been teaching outside and never asked about housework, so Du had to bear the burden of being a housekeeper. Because of his cleverness, he soon mastered a set of skills to manage housework and preserve his family business.
When Du was sixteen, his father returned to his hometown from Yulin. He was greatly disappointed to see that his studies were basically abandoned because of housework. He decided to hand over the housework to his nephew Du Yucheng, and Du followed his father to Class 20 of Yulin Middle School, the only middle school in 23 counties of northern Shaanxi, to continue his studies. The headmaster is Du's cousin. He studied under famous Shaanxi producers Wei Yechou and Li Zizhou, and educators Wang Senran and Zhu Hengqiu. Xie Zichang and Huo Shijie, who later became * * * producers, and Liu Yunhua (Liu Qing), who later became a modern writer.
1923, Du graduated from Yulin Middle School. In August of the same year, he married Cao Xiuqing, who was two years older than him. 1In the early spring of 924, Du, who was under 20 years old, and Yan Maoyao and Ma Shigong from Yulin successively came to Beijing. Du originally wanted to apply for Peking University, but during his stay in Beijing, he witnessed the darkness of Beiyang warlord's political extension and stealing the country. In the magazine "New Youth", I saw an advertisement for recruiting students from Huangpu Military Academy. Due to the influence of revolutionary thought and Du Bincheng, after careful consideration, I resolutely chose to enter the Whampoa Military Academy. 1924 In March, Du, his cousin Tu Yuxin, Shaanxi youth Yan Maoyao, Guan, and other eleven people went to Guangzhou by English ship via Tianjin. During his school years, he was never careless in his studies, and devoted himself wholeheartedly to the demonstration and simulation of military courses such as steps, guns, engineers, tactical tactics and queue drills offered by military schools, and he was very serious about imitation learning. Du and his classmates also took part in the battle to pacify the reactionary business group in Guangzhou, which was his first experience with a real knife and a real gun. At the end of that year, after graduating from the first class of students, he was assigned to be a trainee and a quartermaster sergeant in the third company of the first training regiment. Soon promoted to second platoon leader.
1in the spring of 925, under the command of the military academy, the battle against Guangdong warlord Chen Jiongming started. When attacking Danshui City, students of Du and Chen Geng signed up for the death squads organized by the teaching organization to climb the city. Du and Chen took the lead to climb the city head, then opened the city gate again to meet a large group of people to annihilate the remnants of the enemy, and finally won. In early March of the same year, Du and his party arrived in Beijing and were received by Wang Jingwei. They met Sun Yat-sen, who was in a coma. Du handed Liao's personal letter to Ma Xiang, Sun Yat-sen's adjutant, and then wrote a letter to Mr. Liao to report Sun Yat-sen's illness. Then, they went to Kaifeng and, under the direct leadership of Hu Jingyi, assisted Soviet advisers in organizing military schools.
Soon, the battalion commander and big landlord of the supplementary battalion of the Second Army Zi Regiment of the National Army hired Du as the deputy battalion commander and the first company commander with heavy money to expand their power. Du solemnly wrote to Guangzhou Revolutionary Base Camp and Whampoa Military Academy to report the situation and ask for instructions. The Organization Department of the Kuomintang Central Committee immediately replied with instructions: I hope Du will stay in the north, and strive for opportunities to contact Maxiang and participate in guarding Sun Yat-sen's coffin parked in Biyun Temple in Beijing. At this point, Gao Guizi was ordered to lead his troops into Beijing as a garrison in both capital city, and the reorganized Wu Baoshan Supplementary Camp also went north with the regiment. After arriving in Beijing, Gao Guizi changed the supplementary camp into a spy camp and sent the camp to the Jingyi Garden of Biyun Temple in Xishan to guard Sun Yat-sen's coffin. Du is still the deputy battalion commander and company commander. 1in July, 926, the revolutionary government of Guangzhou promised the Northern Expedition. Du returned to the team. After all the hardships, he arrived in Nanjing. Unfortunately, he was captured by the inspection team in Sun and put in Nanjing Tiger Bridge Prison. Later, he escaped from prison and went to Wuhan to meet Deng. Go to Wuchang Nanhu Academy Corps to find Zhang Zhizhong, captain of the Academy Corps of Whampoa Military Academy Wuhan Branch. Subsequently, Du served as the company commander of the third company of the first battalion in Zhang Zhizhong Student Corps.
/kloc-in the summer of 0/928, Zhang Zhizhong returned to China for inspection and served as the director of the training department of the Central Army Military Academy, making Du the captain of the second squadron of the Hangzhou Reserve Brigade of the school; At the beginning of the second year, Du returned to Nanjing Military Academy as the captain of the fourth team in the seventh period; In the winter of the same year, he served as the chief of staff of the second brigade of the first division. /kloc-at the beginning of 0/930, Chiang Kai-shek established and taught the Second Division, taking Zhang Zhizhong as the teacher, and Du served as the battalion commander of the fifth regiment of the second brigade of the Division, and was soon promoted to the head of the sixth regiment of the Division.
/kloc-in the winter of 0/930, the Second Division was renamed the Fourth Division of the Army, and Du Ren was the head of the 24th Regiment of the 12th Brigade. Teacher Xu Yaoting is very strict with his subordinates. Seeing that most of the teams are so-so, Du Tuan is the only one who conscientiously carries out his instructions, and all aspects of education and training are well organized and practiced skillfully, so I appreciate Du very much.
1at the beginning of 932, Xu 4th Division was ordered to go to northern Anhui to participate in the "encirclement and suppression" of Dabie Mountain, and was defeated by Kuang Jixun of the Red Army in Huoqiu. At the critical moment, the 24th regiment of Xu Ling made an all-out counterattack, and Du Lingbing broke into Huoqiu, causing heavy losses to the Red Army. Xu made the first meritorious service for him, and reported the news that Du was promoted as the viceroy. In the winter of this year, Xu was promoted to be the commander of the 17 Army, Du was the brigade commander of the 73rd Brigade of the 25th Army, and was soon promoted to be the deputy commander of the division.
1In February, 933, the Japanese aggressor troops attacked the Jehol in three ways, and the 25th Division was ordered to gather from Xuzhou and Bengbu to Tongxian to stop the enemy. On March 9, after the 25th Division arrived in the town, Du, He Guan and others drove to Gubeikou to contact the commander of the Northeast Army. Du served as the division commander, commanding the officers and men of the whole division to fight bloody battles with the Japanese aggressors. 1933 March 12, Du was ordered to hand over his position to the Second Division. In the autumn of the same year, Du entered the first higher education class offered by Nanjing Central Military Academy. During his study, Ma Zhichao, who graduated from the same hometown and Huangpu Phase I, joined Fuxing Society.
1936 In the spring, Du graduated from the advanced education class of the Central Military Academy. Du Ben should have returned to the 25th Division, but he didn't want to go back because he didn't get along well with his teacher Guan. Xu Yaoting recommended him to Chiang Kai-shek as the captain of the newly established student team of Jiao Jiao School of Nanjing Army, and was responsible for training officers who commanded mechanized troops. On October 5th, 65438/KLOC-0, he was awarded the rank of Major General.
1937, the Chariot Battalion of Jiaobian School was co-edited with the armored motorcade of the Second Traffic Corps, and several chariots were added to form the First Armored Corps of the Kuomintang Army, with Du as the first head. During the "August 13th" Anti-Japanese War in Shanghai, Du led the 2nd and 4th companies of the 1st Battalion of Armored Forces to cooperate with the infantry at Huishan Wharf in Shanghai to stop the Japanese troops attempting to land. 1938, the armored forces withdrew to Xiangtan, Hunan Province for training and consolidation. Soon, the Corps was expanded to the 200th Division, with Du as the teacher. After the Changsha fire, the Kuomintang Changsha police and arsonists once again came to Xiangtan City to set fire to Xiangtan City. When Du learned about it, he denounced this panic-stricken and disregard for human life to his face. He sent personnel to collect the equipment of the arson team, forcibly controlled the people who set fires, and posted a notice prohibiting burning in Xiangtan County, so that the lives and property of hundreds of thousands of people in Xiangtan City could be preserved. Afterwards, the people of Xiangtan praised and thanked Du He and the 200 th Division for saving Xiangtan.
193865438+in February, the 200th division was expanded into a new 1 1 army, and moved from Xiangtan, Hunan to Quanzhou, Guangxi, with Du as the deputy commander. Soon, it was renamed the Fifth Army, and Du was promoted to the rank of commander. This army is the only new mechanized army established by the Kuomintang government in the early days of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression. Du proposed that "the playground is the battlefield", "sweat more in peacetime and shed less blood in wartime", and asked the new army to have the vigor of "five divisions" (no arrogance, laziness, hypocrisy, lust and evil) and "three habits" (learning essence, honesty and diligence).
From the summer of 1939, the Japanese invaders assembled their forces and prepared to open up a battlefield in South China. 1939, 1 17 10. In October, the Japanese invaders landed in Fangcheng and Beihai, invaded Qinzhou, and 19 broke through the Xiaodong defense line and attacked Nanning. Du's fifth army was ordered to gather near Nanning from Quanzhou, ready to attack the enemy who landed in Qinzhou and Fangcheng. Facing the aggressive attack of the Japanese invaders, Du calmly analyzed the war situation at that time, estimated the enemy's weakness, and put forward his own suggestion to the Chongqing High Command: "When the enemy alone went deep into backup and failed to help, gather superior forces, cooperate with the local people, and quickly counterattack to break the invading enemy and restore important international traffic."
1939 12 16 in the morning, Du was ordered to lead the fifth army as a frontal attack on Yongbin Road in order to defeat the enemy near Kunlun Pass and Batang first. At the above meeting of Du Zhao Group, read out the operational deployment: attack from the front with the honorary first division of Zheng Dongguo; Dai Anlan's 200th Division is the general reserve team; Qiu Qingquan's new 22nd division circuitous to the enemy lines north of Nanning; Strike Liutang on the defensive, cut off the traffic link between Nanning and Kunlun Pass, and isolate the enemy of Kunlun Pass. The next day, Bai Chongxi and Chen Cheng visited the Fifth Army Command in Tanpeng Village. Du was ordered to conquer Kunlun Pass as scheduled and take Nanning directly.
1939 12 18 dawn, the counterattack began. Du's fifth army, under the cover of chariots and artillery fire, launched a fierce attack on the enemy troops on the defensive in Kunlun Pass. Dai Anlan Division fought hand-to-hand with the Japanese aggressors and first occupied fairy mountain. On that night, the ministries seized Laomaoling, Wanfu Village and 44 1 highland successively, and finally occupied Kunlun Pass. During this period, Du adopted the "fortress attack method" to gradually narrow the encirclement and eat the enemy bite by bite. Peng, deputy division commander of Duling 200 Division, led his troops across Kunlun Pass from the left side of the highway, forming a siege; Qiu Qingquan division ambushed the chariots in the jungle on both sides of the road; Zheng Dongguo Division strengthened the right-wing offensive, re-entered the enemy's deep position in Kunlun, and destroyed the enemy headquarters and artillery positions. The battle lasted 18 days and ended with a total victory of 3 1 China army, which is known as the great victory of Kunlun Pass in history.
1941February, Du, as a member of the China-Myanmar-India-Malaysia military investigation team, went to Myanmar, India and Malaysia for military investigation.
/kloc-at the beginning of 0/942, Kojiro, a Japanese army, led four divisions to attack Myanmar in two ways. China sent an expeditionary force, and Du was the first deputy commander, sir. After the Chinese and British troops were assembled, they made a battle plan and went south to meet the Japanese army in three ways. Du's fifth army, the Middle Route Army, took over the British-Burmese defense of Tonggu on March 9.
1942 On March 20th, the war with the ancients began. For several days, the enemy cooperated with land and air and attacked with artillery and chariots. By the 26th, the frontal enemy attacked the northwest corner of Tonggu with three wings, and the position of the 6th regiment of the 200th Division was broken. On the 27th, the newly formed 22nd Division arrived in the north of Tonggu and met the enemy. The two sides confronted each other all night. On the 28th, the Japanese army attacked from north to south and built fortifications on the back of Tonggu in an attempt to stop the new 22nd Division from advancing. Instead, the main force was concentrated on storming the 200 th Division, releasing corrosive gases, causing heavy casualties among the officers and men of the 200 th Division. Du commanded the new 22nd Division to attack the enemy head-on, and marched straight into Nanyang Terrace to relieve the encirclement of the 200th Division, but the Japanese army clung to it by virtue of nearby buildings. The two armies fought repeatedly and fought fiercely until the 30th.
1On the evening of March 30th, 942, Du ordered the New 22nd Division to build several trapezoidal positions on the north and south banks of the Swawa River, ambush snipers on both sides, and lay mines in front of the positions. This tactic is adopted by the new 22nd Division, which is flexible and false, making it impossible for the Japanese army to prevent it. The expeditionary force attacked first and then defended, and fought fiercely with the Japanese five wings as many as 12 times with continuous resistance tactics, which lasted for half a month. Every time the enemy advances, it needs to pay a huge cost of personnel and equipment, so as to achieve the goal of winning more with less and controlling the superior with inferior, which has become a rare war example in the history of the Anti-Japanese War.
On April 3rd, 1942, the British army asked the China army to take over the west section of the British-Burmese army in an attempt to withdraw from it. Stilwell and Rowe rearranged their battle plans and prepared to fight in Mandalay, and ordered the Fifth Army and the Sixty-sixth Army to be distributed on the 300-kilometer Ping (Manna)-Man (Dele) highway. Du believes that if the troops are dispersed like this, they will be divided by the enemy. He emphasized the importance of Tangji many times, and advocated either retreating to Tangji and keeping the gateway of lashio. Either draw Manchuria and oppose the unprepared battle of Mandalay, but it was not adopted by Shi and Luo, so Du had to do it and give up. So the Japanese army reoccupied Tangji, directly captured Lashio, and cut off the rear of China's main force assembled in Mandalay to prepare for battle from the southwest, so the Fifth Army stationed in had to retreat to the west bank of Irrawaddy River. From then on, the expeditionary force began a fiasco.
On March 1942 and 1, Chiang Kai-shek personally went to Lashio, Myanmar, and commanded the expeditionary force to enter Myanmar. Faced with the order of "General Stilwell", Du personally asked Chiang Kai-shek: "What if Stilwell's order doesn't conform to your decision?" Chiang Kai-shek said, "You can telegraph me for instructions." Du was determined to carry out Chiang Kai-shek's orders and retreat to the border. Sun Liren, on the other hand, led the new 38th Division to retreat westward to India, and was later compiled into troops stationed in India. Du's expeditionary force retreated in three ways. He led the new 22 nd Division as the first route, the 96 th Division of the 5 th Army as the first route, and the 200 th Division responsible for the rear of the temple as the third route.
1945 At the beginning of April, Chiang Kai-shek suddenly called Du to Chongqing. Long Yun was asked to disarm by force, and Long Yun was confined to Chungking for three days. I asked Du what he thought. He accepted the task in one gulp. Chiang Kai-shek was very happy after hearing this and asked Du to go back to Kunming immediately to prepare. However, He believes that it is possible to persuade Long Yun to resign voluntarily, and Long will not be opinionated. This solution can avoid using force. Du also agreed. Therefore, he and Du Li advised Long Yun to resign voluntarily. Three months later, Long Yun didn't give up.
1On August 9, 945, Chiang Kai-shek called Du to Chongqing again and gave him a face-to-face speech. Jiang instructed: "When you go back to Long Yun this time, besides military preparations, you should also make careful arrangements for Yunnan's communications, transportation and airport to prevent Long Yun from escaping." On August 1 1 day, Du flew back to Kunming and immediately made preparations to solve Long Yun. On the military side, Du Fu personally taught sand table simulation exercises to officers above platoon leader, investigated Long Yun's troops and stations in Kunming, and worked out countermeasures in order to completely solve Long Yun's armed forces in a short time. Kunming is connected with telephones, telegrams, highways, railways and airports in the whole province, and strict control measures have been formulated, so that Long Yun is isolated from the outside world and cannot escape, leaving only a tiny Wuhua Mountain and a battalion of guards, so that Long Yun can decide where to go. How to convey Chiang Kai-shek's orders and how to persuade Long Yun to surrender are also preparations. The work was done in secret for a month.
1September 27th, 945, Chiang Kai-shek secretly sent Wang Shuming to Kunming, and sent a personal letter to Du, informing him that he would soon issue an order to remove Long Yun from his military and political post in Yunnan, transfer Long Yun as the chairman of the Military Senate of the Central Military Commission, and instruct Du to prepare planes, artillery and tanks together. One thousand Long Yun disobedient, concentrate on bombing Wuhua Mountain, and ask Du to "absolutely guarantee the safety of Long Yun's life". At that time, Du considered that he and Long Yun could not coexist politically, but in personal feelings, they got along very well and should not do anything against Long Yun. And if Long Yun dies in the incident, public opinion will inevitably blame itself. So Du wrote back to Jiang overnight, to the effect that Long Yun is only a tiny place called Wuhua Mountain, which is not enough for invasion. Bombing Wuhua Mountain will affect the security of Yunnan University and The National SouthWest Associated University, cause student riots and cause extremely bad political influence. Jiang was most afraid of students making trouble, so he had to reply and agree with Du that there was no need for artillery bombing or plane bombing.
1On the evening of September 29th, 945, Du went to the command post prepared by Gangtou in the northern suburb of Kunming, called the cadres above the group and the new director and acting chairman of the Yunnan Provincial Department of Civil Affairs Li for a meeting, issued an action order, issued an order to the US military to solve Long Yun, and issued an order to Longyun to appoint or remove Long Yun from his post by the Central Committee.
1945 At 5 a.m. on September 30th, Dudu arrived at the attack position and was ordered by the General Committee to give it to all the troops in Long Yun. All the troops in Long Yun were caught off guard. In just over 50 minutes, the battle ended, leaving only a Wuhua Mountain.
14 June 14, Du suddenly received an order from Chiang Kai-shek to go to Chongqing. Du 15 flies to Chongqing. This interview with Chiang Kai-shek is very different from the past. He paid tribute to Du Youli and asked about Long Yun's resettlement with great interest. Then, Jiang said to Du hesitantly, "You solved Long Yun and made contributions to the country, but you offended Long Yun. You should work hard for your country. On the surface, I will first announce the order to dismiss you from your position and accept the investigation, and then let you take other positions. " Du knew Jiang's psychology well and said generously, "As long as it is beneficial to the country, individuals don't care about fame and fortune." Jiang was very happy to hear that. On June 16, Chiang Kai-shek issued an order: "If Du is mishandled in Yunnan, he will be dismissed for investigation. Transferred to the commander-in-chief of the police. " 1945 10 10 18, Du left Kunming and returned to Chongqing after he was relieved of his post as the commander-in-chief of Kunming's defense and the commander-in-chief of the Fifth Army. On the same day, an order was issued to appoint Du as the northeast security commander.
On the fourth day after Du took office, Chiang Kai-shek instructed Du to contact the Soviet Union and receive the territorial sovereignty of Northeast China. After nearly ten days of contact with the Soviet Union, Du found that the Soviet Union had announced its withdrawal from the Northeast, and the Soviet Union in Yingkou had left and was accepted by the Northeast Democratic Allied Forces. To this end, Du Xiangjiang suggested that it is impossible to accept the Northeast without using force.
1945165438+1On October 5th, Du Jifei flew to Chongqing to report to Chiang Kai-shek, requesting rapid redeployment of troops and forced landing from Huludao or Yingkou under the cover of American ships. Take the lead in provoking Qinhuangdao in the Northeast Liberated Area, and command the 13th Army and the 52nd Army to attack Yujin. 14, Du gave the order to attack Shanhaiguan, determined to seize the main points before the main force of the Northeast Democratic Coalition arrived, and continued to pursue Suizhong separately, thus occupying Xingcheng, Jinxi and Huludao.
Du arrived in Jinxi and ordered troops to attack Jinzhou according to the original policy. Due to the planned retreat of the Northeast Democratic Allied Forces, Du led his troops into Jinzhou on 26th and occupied Shanhaiguan on the same day.
1945 16 February 16 The Kuomintang government held peace talks with China under the pressure of public opinion at home and abroad for the peaceful founding of the country. While negotiating, Chiang Kai-shek ordered the Kuomintang troops to actively attack the liberated areas. 12 On February 23rd, after receiving instructions from Chiang Kai-shek, Du ordered the 52nd Army to brave the heavy snow to occupy Beizhen and Montenegro, and then attack Fuxin and Yingkou separately to occupy Beipiao, Chaoyang, Heishui and other cities.
65438+65438 09 46+65438 00 10 +00, Du also seized Pingquan and other important cities according to Chiang Kai-shek's secret telegram before the armistice order was issued. Since the Northeast Campaign was launched, Du Fu went to the front line to command many times, and he was exhausted day and night. 1946 flew to Beiping by special plane on February 18, and secretly entered Baita Temple and hospital for treatment. March 1946, 16, left kidney was surgically removed. 1946 April 16, back to Shenyang.
On April 28th, 1946, under the cover of the air force, the two armies attacked Benxi in two ways. After Du succeeded in Benxi, he quickly turned to fully plan the attack on Siping Street. He first transferred the 195 Division and the 88th Division to Tieling to cover the safety of Zhongchang Road, and then quickly concentrated the New Sixth Army near Liaoyang and transported it to Kaiyuan by train. In order to break Siping Street and recover Changchun and Yongji in one fell swoop, they deployed two-wing attacks in an attempt to oppress the Northeast Democratic Coalition and annihilate the Liaohe River. 1946 may 14, with the cooperation of aircraft and artillery, the Kuomintang began to storm. After fierce fighting, the Northeast Democratic Allied Forces implemented a strategic retreat, and Du Bu invaded Siping on May 1946. On May 23rd, Kuomintang troops invaded Changchun, and on May 3rd1day, they occupied the line from Yongji to Nong 'an, south of Songhua River. Only half a year after Du arrived in Northeast China, he successively occupied the whole territory of western Liaoning and key cities such as Tieling, Fushun, Benxi, Liaoyang, Anshan, Haicheng and Yingkou in Shenyang, and confronted the Northeast Democratic Allied Forces with the Songhua River in the north. Soon, the armistice period expired and the negotiations between the two countries broke down. With the ambition of capturing the whole northeast, Du decided on the general operational policy of attacking the south and defending the north. In August, Zheng Dongguo, the deputy chief, was sent to command an all-out attack on the province of Jehol, sweeping the * * * army within the territory of Jehol. In June 5438+10, the 50th Army was sent to attack Anton, Tonghua and other important cities. The 25th Division was completely annihilated at the side door of Nuanyang (the battle of Xinkailing). Du did not learn from the failure, thinking that it was not a strategic mistake, but the incompetence of individual generals. He still adhered to the established sweeping policy and attacked Linjiang, and the troops suffered a heavy blow again. At this point, the Kuomintang army in Northeast China began to decline.
1May, 947 15, North Manchuria and Northeast Democratic Allied Forces crossed the river and launched a large-scale summer offensive. 18, capture Wilder. Occupy important cities outside Siping Street on 24th. On the 26th, he broke into Faku. 27, into Changtu. /kloc-in June of 0/5, Siping general attack began. Counselors such as Du and Zheng Dongguo studied the overall situation and thought that the Northeast Democratic Allied Forces in Benxi posed a great threat to Shenyang. They are determined to attack and mop up with the 53rd Army as the main force, so as to consolidate the gateway of Shenyang, and then assemble possible troops to solve the siege of Siping. According to this decision, Zheng directed the attack on Benxi and captured Benxi on the 20th. According to the radio reconnaissance of many radio stations east of Zhongchang Road, Du also judged that the main force of the * * * Army may be in the mountainous area east of Zhongchang Road and may be moving. So, he decided to take this opportunity to start the attack, command the right-wing corps to attack the left wing of Siping Street, smash the Northeast Democratic Allied Forces, and boldly divide his troops and make great efforts to surround and destroy the Northeast Democratic Allied Forces; The Central Corps launched an attack from the spot and smashed the enemy face to face, that is, quickly pursued and annihilated it; The left-wing corps assisted the Central Corps in attacking the enemy's right wing occupying the positions north of Shuang Shan and Changbei. After defeating the Northeast Democratic Coalition forces face to face, they pursued Zheng Jiatun in Sanjiangkou. After the order was issued, all the troops of Du Department launched a large-scale attack with the cooperation of aircraft artillery fire, and the fighting was very fierce. It was not until the Northeast Democratic Allied Forces voluntarily retreated on June 30 1947 that the siege of Siping was solved. Later, under the hammer of the Northeast Democratic Allied Forces, Du was defeated and fought repeatedly. He plans day and night, can't do anything, and even becomes depressed and can't get married. On July 8, he left the northeast and went to Shanghai for treatment.
1June, 948, Chiang Kai-shek appointed Du as the deputy commander-in-chief of Xuzhou "Suppression General" and commander of the Second Corps. Shortly after Du took office, he was ordered by Chiang Kai-shek to lead the 2nd, 16th and 13th Corps to reinforce Jinan. On September 12 of the same year, the Northeast Field Army launched the Liaoshen Campaign. At the beginning of 10, the encirclement of Jinzhou was completed, cutting off the only passage of the northeast Kuomintang army to Shanhaiguan pass. In order to save the defeat, Chiang Kai-shek quickly transferred Du back to Shenyang. 10 On June 5438+05, Du flew from Xuzhou to Shenyang. The next day, Jinzhou fell.
1948, 10 year123 October, the ninth corps of Liao Yaoxiang stormed Montenegro, which was a devastating blow to the PLA. By the 26th, the Liao Corps was completely annihilated. In the early morning of the 27th, Chiang Kai-shek sent a special plane to Huludao to pick Du up and go to Peiping to discuss countermeasures. 1948165438+1October 2, Shenyang was liberated. At this time, Du fidgeted day and night in Huludao, worried that the PLA would immediately attack Shanxi, and waited until Chiang Kai-shek ordered the withdrawal from Shanghai, that is, began to deploy the 39 th Army, 52 nd Army and 54 th Army to withdraw from Huludao to Shanghai. 1948165438+1On the morning of October 8, Du fled to Beiping by plane at Jinxi Airport. While Du was commanding troops to retreat in Huludao, the East China Field Army of China People's Liberation Army launched a powerful offensive on June 6th 165438, and started the Huaihai Campaign.
Prior to this, Chiang Kai-shek instructed the Ministry of National Defense to draw up the "Xubang Operational Plan", "with the aim of breaking the * * * army offensive and concentrating troops near Bengbu", and appointed Du as the deputy commander of Xuzhou's "suppression general". Jiang sent Xu to seek Du's advice, and Du agreed to the "Xu Collapse Battle Plan", and wrote to ask Jiang Geng to make operational arrangements under the command of Herry Liu and implement it quickly as planned, otherwise it might be blocked by the People's Liberation Army.
1948+065438+On the evening of June 9, when Du flew from Beiping to Nanjing in a hurry, he learned that Chiang Kai-shek had not resolutely implemented the "Bing Xu battle plan" and adopted the idea of "defending the river and the Huai River" put forward by He and Gu. He was upset and panicked. The next night, Du was ordered to fly to Xuzhou by Chiang Kai-shek's plane to direct the solution of Huang Zhi encirclement. 10 at noon, Herry Liu got the news that the Central Plains Field Army really went south. Only get two columns of information face to face, he is determined to transfer the second corps to the eastern front, to help the 13th corps solve the Huang Zhi siege. Du even if the main force of Qiu Qingquan Corps assembled near Zhanglou in the southeast of Xuzhou, the Corps assembled near Yuanshan in the east of Xuzhou. He urged the people's liberation army to detour around a wing and wait until the main force was broken before attacking. On June 5438+02, Du launched the main activities in Chuangji, Yuanshan and Bulao Hejian. 17, PLA troops retreated to the southeast through Shuanggou. Both Liu and Du mistakenly thought that the People's Liberation Army had collapsed, leading to a full-scale pursuit. As a result, the PLA continued to stubbornly stand in the second-line position. On 22nd, the Yellow Corps was wiped out in Nianzhuang area.
1948 65438+On February 3rd, Du Tuan evacuated to Yongcheng as planned, and suddenly received a handwritten letter from Chiang Kai-shek, which made Du stop advancing to Yongcheng and attack Suixikou instead, and cooperated with Bengbu to enter the north and south of the Corps to solve the siege of Stevie Hoang Corps. Du felt that Chiang's orders would be completely annihilated, and he was scared to death of Chiang's arrogance, fearing that he would not understand Stevie Hoang's encirclement. Chiang Kai-shek would blame him for the whole failure, so he decided to obey orders and finally be loyal to Chiang Kai-shek. On the 4th, Du adopted continuous offensive tactics and ordered the Second Corps to attack, while the 13th and 16th Corps stepped up their efforts to build fortifications and cover their positions.
