In the revolutionary war era, countless heroes and outstanding generals emerged in the People's Army. Lin Biao and Su Yu are the two most shining generals and can be called two "military gods"!
Lin BiaoSu Yu is about the same age. However, Lin Biao is a top student in the regular Whampoa Military Academy, while Su Yu has never attended a military school for one day. His talent comes from his nationality. Su Yu is a descendant of the hunting nationality of Dong ethnicity. He has loved to fiddle with hunting rifles and hunting in the mountains. He has learned many purely natural "rules of combat", which makes him have the wisdom to become an outstanding military strategist.
During the Great Revolution, Su Yu was wanted by warlords because of a revolution in school, so he had to join the army. He was trained in Wuhan by the teaching team organized by General Ye Ting, so he also gained some basic military knowledge.
Later, they participated in 8 Yi together, and later they followed Mr. Zhu to Jinggangshan together to meet with Mao Zedong.
During the Agrarian Revolutionary War, Su Yu was obviously inferior to Lin Biao in terms of qualifications, military positions, or battles commanded by the leaders.
to Red Army is about to Long March , Lin Biao has been the commander of the Red First Army, which is famous for the three armies, and has become the elite ace. Su Yu was actually left behind as a "abandoned son" role, but was just the chief of staff of a unit of the Red Army's advance army to the north. Their mission was to attract the attention of the enemy, sacrifice themselves, and cover the transfer of the main force. Therefore, from this perspective, Su Yu's importance is not recognized at all.
The two really opened the gap during the War of Resistance Against Japan. Lin Biao started well and served as the commander of the 115th Division. He led his troops to launch the famous " Pingxingguan Victory ". He was famous for a while, but then he was foolishly shot and had to stay away from the battlefield for six years! I have to say that this was a very regrettable period in Lin Biao's military career.
But Su Yu is different. This period of Lin Biao's regret is a period of time when he was catching up. Su Yu led the New Fourth Army to compete with the Japanese invaders and the Kuomintang's stubborn army on an increasingly high scale, and the military talents are constantly tempered and demonstrated. They have come from behind, which makes Chairman Mao look at each other with admiration (actually, they have been separated for a long time).
By the early stage of the Liberation War, Su Yu once again covered Lin Biao. When the Liberation War broke out in 1946, Chiang Kai-shek tried to use his premeditated years to launch a sudden full-scale attack on our party and army, and also achieved certain results in many regions, such as the Central Plains and the Northeast region of . The Kuomintang achieved local victory.
However, it was on several battlefields that the brilliant victory of our army broke Chiang Kai-shek's comprehensive offensive attempt that he had to adjust his strategy and enter a key attack. Among them, the Suzhong " Seven Battles and Seven Wins " led by Su Yu can be regarded as a masterpiece to turn the world.
At this moment, the Northeast Democratic Alliance Army where Lin Biao, who had been away from the battlefield for a long time, suffered a devastating defeat. The Battle of Siping , the Northeast People's Liberation Army was defeated by the Kuomintang army and pursued ruthlessly. It was once about to enter the Soviet Union to hide. So much so that the cadres and soldiers of the Northeast People's Liberation Army all doubted Lin Biao's military command ability, and even a small soldier angrily scolded Lin Biao: "I can't fight after eating foreign bread for a few years!"
Fortunately, General Su Jing, the subordinate, was considerate and knew that Lin Biao was a very emotional person. The better the battle, the better the ability was, and the worse the level was! So he cleverly arranged a small victory, which gave Lin Biao, who had extremely poor psychological factors, a shot of a heart-warming shot, which gave him confidence. The war began to get smoother and smoother, and gradually became more and more powerful.
Therefore, at this time, the Party Central Committee sent Su Yu's seven battles and seven victories and the battles of northern Jiangsu and eastern Henan to the People's Liberation Army. Lin Biao learned very rarely humbly, admired him very much, and admired him sincerely: "Su Yu will fight all the battles of immortals!" It is not difficult to hear a little bit of a sigh in his words.
After this, both military gods began to enter the "cheat" state. Lin Biao's Northeast Field Army won a major victory in Liaoshen Battle , and then won Pingjin Battle . Su Yu commanded East China Field Army and Nakano to complete the victory in Huaihai Battle .
At this time, Lin Biao had a little advantage in terms of the size of the commanding troops or the scale of annihilation of the enemy, and Lin Biao was quite proud. Every time he captured a former classmate from the Whampoa Military Academy, he would ignore him contemptuously. He didn't even look at the battle reports of other People's Liberation Army units, and obviously disdained them.
However, only Su Yu's Huaye troops' battle report. No matter how busy Lin Biao was, he would ask the Chief of Staff Liu Yalou to find him for himself and study it carefully.
Liu Yalou knew Lin Biao's personality well, so he joked: "Mr. Lin, you are so interested in the Chinese Field Report. Do you want to compete with Su Yu?"
Lin Biao answered seriously: "This is inappropriate. Su Yu and I were familiar with Nanchang Uprising . There is no difference between us, only the style is different! I have always been cautious in fighting, while Su Yu dares to take risks. Therefore, I am not sure about fighting some of his immortal battles, but I refuse to fight like that!"
Liu Yalou nodded in agreement and asked, "What is the reason for your differences?"
Lin Biao replied: "This is all forced by our respective growth environments. I have been in for a long time. The main force of the Central Red Army is the old capital of the revolution, so there is no way to make any mistakes in war. Therefore, I developed a cautious and cautious style. Without 70% of my confidence, I will not start fighting. "
Lin Biao continued: "Su Yu is different. He has been alone in the Kuomintang area to fight guerrillas for a long time, and he lives on his belt every day. He must take the courage to take risks at all times. Therefore, he developed a style of daring to take risks and being good at taking risks. Even if the pre-war analysis is only 40% sure, he dares to attack! Therefore, Su Yu has repeatedly achieved the record of winning with less and winning in danger. This is all caused by our long-term environment."
what Lin Biao said is still very pertinent, and Liu Yalou agrees deeply. Lin Biao was an extremely conceited and even arrogant person. He regarded himself too high, and even President Zhu looked down on him, not to mention other generals. However, Lin Biao rarely showed respect and appreciation towards Su Yu. Even when his ambitions were inflated and he began to engage in a conspiracy with the party to fight against foreign countries, he was the only one who refused to attack Sogdian. It can be seen that Su Yu is Lin Biao's sincere admiration.
