The Battle of Huaihai [Film and TV Commentary]

From September to October 1948, the Liaoshen Campaign and the Jinan Campaign were victorious one after another, marking the decisive turning point of the Liberation War. At this critical juncture, Chiang Kai-shek (played by Zhao Hengduo) urgently deployed 170,000 superior troops from three of his corps to defend the Central Plains. In November of the same year, the East China Field Army launched an attack on Huang Baitao's (played by Xu Huanshan) corps, and the largest Huaihai Campaign officially began. The on-the-spot uprising of the underground party member He Zhang's defense line gave Su Yu (played by Xie Weicai), who had the upper hand in time, a fighting chance and successfully cut off Huang Baitao's retreat.
