Huang Baitao (19-November 22, 1948) was another Baitao, a Bo Tao with a brand-new name, Hanyu, whose original name was Sun Wong, who was born in Jiaying Prefecture, Guangdong Province (now Meixian District, Meizhou City, Guangdong Province) and was born in Tianjin Prefecture, Zhili Province (now Tianjin City). A senior general of the National Revolutionary Army of the Republic of China, Xu Bang fought with the People's Liberation Army during the battle and committed suicide.
In his early years
Huang Baitao's father was from Jiaying Prefecture, Guangdong Province. He served as a junior officer in the Huai Army of Li Hongzhang, and later moved to Tianjin with the Huai Army. Huang Baitao was also born here.
It is rumored that Huang was thin because of his poor family, and later he was called "Huang Bald" because of his baldness. At about the age of 13, Huang Baitao began to study in the middle school department of Hebei Institute of Technology. Soon, with the help of friends, he went to Jiangxi to join the army and moved to Jiangsu. In his early years, he worked as a messenger under Chun Li, the governor of Jiangsu Province. Chun Li promised a beloved handmaid to Huang as his wife, and with the help of this handmaid, Huang was soon sent by Li Bao to study in the Jinling Military Officer Education Corps hosted by him, during which he met Zhang Zongchang and others. After Chun Li's death, Zhang Zongchang led his troops to the south, and Huang surrendered to Zhang Zongchang. Because of his eagerness to learn and make progress, he was promoted several times. On the eve of the Northern Expedition, he was promoted to the brigade commander in Xu Yuanquan under Zhang Zongchang. Soon Zhang Zongchang defeated Chiang Kai-shek and his men were annexed by Chiang Kai-shek. Later, he joined the revolution with Xu Yuanquan.
During the Northern Expedition, Chiang Kai-shek's troops were stubbornly blocked by the Yellow Department and suffered heavy losses, which once attracted Chiang's attention. At this time, Huang is only a battalion commander under Zhang. Therefore, he was specially summoned by Chiang Kai-shek and was said to have left a very good impression on Chiang Kai-shek. Soon Huang was promoted from a staff officer to a colonel, brigade commander and division commander because of his meritorious military service. During this period, he participated in the encirclement and suppression of the Red Army in Jiangxi, and made considerable achievements.
Huang entered the third special class of the Army University for training, and was classmates with Feng Yuxiang and Lu Zhonglin. After graduation, he served as the chief of staff of Feng Yuxiang's Sixth Theater and Lu Zhonglin's Jicha Theater.
Around p>194, Huang won a prize for a military paper, which was appreciated by He Yingqin and recommended by He Yingqin. In 1941, he served as the chief of staff of the Third Theater, and was appreciated by the commander-in-chief, Gu Zhutong. Huang mainly did three things in the three war zones, one was to rectify military discipline, the other was the Southern Anhui Incident, and the third was the Zhejiang-Jiangxi Campaign.
Among them, the battle plan for the Zhejiang-Jiangxi Battle was almost entirely written by Huang, and in this battle, China basically drew with the Japanese army. Huang, whether in the sixth or third war zone, was very active in military operations. He often visited the front line, directly participated in commanding operations, and even inspected the fire line. However, Huang's rectification of discipline in the third war zone was not tolerated by the bureaucrats at that time. On the one hand, Gu Zhutong hated him, on the other hand, he valued his talent. In 1944, he was transferred to the 25 th Army Commander of the National Revolutionary Army.
