A chaotic era often casts a sad song of fate and desolation, and sprinkles heroes like stars and brilliant blood and tears, which is the case in China's modern history. On the road of the revolutionary struggle, thousands of soldiers and soldiers are facing the sword, and they do not know whether the direction they are taking is leading to a glorious future, but they still choose to be righteous.
It was precisely because of these soldiers and generals who threw their heads and spilled their blood that the soul of the Chinese nation was finally able to wake up from the sleep of a thousand years of numbness.
In the night sky above the land of China, the twinkling stars are no longer simply strange galaxies that have traveled through trillions of light years, but can be said to be the stars who have left their names in the epic of modern warfare.
In October 1950, when the curtain of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea slowly opened, the Chinese Volunteer Army used willpower and faith power that almost exceeded the limits of mankind against the US military with advanced weapons and equipment.
In this vigorous war, many generals also showed their outstanding military strategic talents, among which General Deng Hua, who was awarded the rank of general in the founding medal, even shined and dealt a heavy blow to the US army.
But after General Deng Hua returned to China, why did his figure suddenly cease to be known in the military department in just five years? What is the hidden secret in this?
Revolutionary fighters
Deng Hua was born in 1910 to a family of scholars in Yongning Township, Chenzhou, Hunan Province. When Deng Hua was young, he had been studying in the local private school, and then when he was a teenager, he went to Changsha to enter Yueyun Middle School, and finally entered the South China School of Political Science and Law.
"Youth is always revolutionary, and revolution is always youth." Deng Hua not only read traditional literature and poetry in school, but he also became one of the students who were exposed to revolutionary ideas in the early days, and also participated in the patriotic student movement in Changsha.
Since its founding in 1921, the Chinese Communist Party has become like a spark rekindled from the abandoned grasslands, burning more and more intensely in propaganda across the country, vowing to burn the residual poison rooted in the Chinese land.
After being deeply exposed to the influence of communist thought, deng hua seemed to have finally found a new direction in the dark groping, and the 17-year-old Deng Hua resolutely chose to join the ranks of the Communist Party and formally embarked on the revolutionary road.
In the subsequent agrarian revolution, the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the War of Liberation, Deng Hua's figure was active in the ranks of the Red Army. He has braved the wind and rain to participate in the uprising, has fought fiercely with the Japanese army and reactionaries, has rubbed shoulders with death, and has walked on the long march of thousands of miles.
The bitter cold wind like a sharp knife tempered his will as a soldier, hundreds of battles created his mature and stable military talent, and decades of time made him grow from a small sapling of perseverance and innocence to a lush tree.
It is precisely because of this long experience of resistance that he finally converged into the most dazzling light of his talents, and was able to shine in the eyes of everyone in the subsequent War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea.
Korean
After the victory in the War of Liberation, New China was finally formally established in October 1949. Imperialism, feudalism and bureaucratic capitalism, which once stood like three unshakable mountains, have finally been completely overthrown, the poisonous weeds have been burned to ashes by the fire and disappeared in the spring breeze of the times, and new spring grasses have grown out of the Chinese land.
Although it is still under the eyes of the great powers, although domestic affairs are still as cumbersome as a wool thread and cannot be fully sorted out, this means that the beginning of a new era still makes the hearts of all Chinese full of excitement and joy.
But less than a year later, under the tensions of the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union, the Korean War, which was secretly manipulated by two superpowers, broke out.
In less than a week, the United States participated in this regional war under the guise of aid, a measure that seriously threatened the territorial security and development of new China, so after careful consideration, the central authorities finally made up their minds to join the war situation on the Korean Peninsula in response to the request for assistance transmitted by the DprK side.
The Central Military Commission first held an urgent meeting to form the Northeast Border Defense Army first, reorganize the Thirteenth Corps of the Fourth Field Army, and take the lead in going to the southern regions of Liaoning and Jilin Provinces in the northeast.
So who will lead these thirteen corps to make all the preparations before entering the dynasty? At this juncture of decision-making, the leaders invariably thought of one person, and that was Deng Hua.
"Deng Hua is a very stable person, willing to use his brain, good at thinking, able to make a plan, dare to make a plan." Chairman Mao was very satisfied with Deng Hua's performance in the just-concluded Battle of Hainan Island, and personally nodded his head to approve the proposal, so that Deng Hua became the first commander of the aid to Korea.
Will the stars twinkle
On September 8, 1950, the Northeast Frontier Guard Army was renamed the Chinese Volunteer Army, and General Peng Dehuai was appointed political commissar and commander of the Chinese Volunteer Army, officially launching troops on the Korean Peninsula. A force of more than 200,000 men crossed the Yalu River with great speed, and after the rendezvous in the Korean region, began to formulate a targeted combat plan for the terrain and the situation of the enemy army.
The superiority of the US military lies in its sophisticated armament and excellent air force capabilities to provide fire support, in which the People's Volunteers are lagging behind. After making many comparisons, General Deng Hua proposed to General Peng to change the original strategy of "standing firm" into a more flexible and changeable strategy of "moving to annihilate the enemy", and using more advantageous terrain and the agility of mobile warfare to infinitely compress the strength of the US military in combat readiness.
General Deng Hua's strategic thinking was extremely scientific and excellent, and General Peng also agreed with it very much, so he directly reported to the central authorities and obtained approval. In the first battle of the Korean Peninsula, Deng Hua cleverly set up an ambush, and immediately after facing the head-on attack on the US troops, he turned to a movement to annihilate the enemy, so that the US troops who had been taken lightly were slapped with a loud slap, and the first part of the first division of the ace army was destroyed.
"End the Korean War in three months and return to the United States before Christmas." Haikou, which the commander-in-chief of the US military boasted in front of many media, became an illusion shattered by the People's Volunteer Army.
In June 1951, General Peng Dehuai had to return to Beijing for treatment due to illness, and Deng Hua took over this responsible post at this time, becoming acting commander and political commissar of the People's Volunteer Army.
Whether it was the "show the enemy to be weak and lure the enemy deeper" at the beginning of the campaign, or the "encirclement and division" adopted in the middle stage, General Deng Hua was always in a state of fluency in his strategic policy. With his extremely sharp military thinking, he saw through all the loopholes in the packaging of powerful equipment and equipment of the US army, and attacked its weaknesses, so as to achieve victory with minimal losses.
Among the hundreds of battles personally commanded by General Deng Hua, the most tragic and tragic battle of Shangganling became a haze in the hearts of the US Army, and it was also a turning point in the complete reversal of the war situation to our side.
During the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, General Deng Hua gave full play to his own skills and proved his ability with the most brilliant achievements, and even the serious and taciturn General Peng Dehuai could not help but praise General Deng Hua: "Deng Hua fought bravely, carefully, well-thought-out, and a good helper." ”
It was also in this war that Peng Dehuai and Deng Hua formed a deep friendship, and these two generals, who also possessed outstanding abilities, cherished each other and became confidants.
Disappearing figures
After the victory in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, Deng Hua was first appointed as the first deputy commander of the Northeast Military Region, and then became the deputy chief of general staff of the People's Liberation Army and the commander of the Shenyang Military Region.
But in just five short years, a mistake in decision-making was wrapped in a biting storm, and the first to be engulfed in this storm was General Deng Hua, who had made great achievements.
After the Lushan Conference in 1959, General Peng Dehuai was wrongly attacked and criticized, and General Deng Hua, who was Peng Dehuai's friend and close comrade-in-arms in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, was also affected.
General Deng Hua, who was in the center of the whirlpool, was forced to leave the army, and even scribbled the glory of the past in the historical records, and went to Sichuan Province to become a vice governor and began to manage the work of agriculture.
This incident was a huge blow to Both General Deng Hua's life and career and mental state. Far away from his once dear comrades-in-arms, and no longer able to feel the army atmosphere like home, Deng Hua did not collapse, but firmly believed that time would return his innocence and chose to bury his head and work hard.
In 1977, after more than a decade, General Deng Hua finally saw the rainbow after the storm, and he was rehabilitated and returned to work in the army.
The glory buried by the dust reappeared in the world, but General Deng Hua's body could not withstand the erosion of time, and only three years after his rehabilitation, Deng Hua died of illness.
brief summary:
"Drunkenly pick up the lamp and look at the sword, dream back to blow the horns and camp." General Deng Hua never stopped on the road of revolutionary resistance, and he made great contributions to the stability and stability of China today.
On the battlefield of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, he was the brightest general star, which made the enemy tremble and made us proud. Even after being slandered and accused, he still did not give up or shake his inner faith, and firmly buried his head in the work for the motherland.
Fortunately, in the last days of his life, he restored all the honors he had once had, washed away the slander on his body, and still maintained the most sincere and pure feelings for the country and the party.
