Lin Biao is withdrawn and rigorous in running the army. He especially dislikes disobedience, which is well-known to his subordinates. All the generals were cautious when facing Lin Biao and dared not make any mistakes, except Zhong Wei.
In a battle in 1947, Lin Biao sent three telegrams to Zhong Wei one after another. Unexpectedly, Zhong Wei not only disobeyed his orders, but also refused to carry out Lin Biao's orders. People around him beat a drum of retreat. Zhong Wei ordered on the spot: "I will kill whoever dares to withdraw!"
Zhong Wei is a "fiery horse". It depends on whether you can control him. If you do a good job, Zhong Wei can play a huge role in the battlefield. One person can reach thousands of troops. If not, Zhong Wei is a regular visitor in the small dark room and the confinement room, which means that "success means defeat.".
When working under Lin Biao, Zhong Wei often got into trouble. Everyone thought that Zhong Wei was a "thorn in the side" and did not want to deal with him much.
In 1941, because Zhong Wei did not understand the superior's policy, he took his troops to leave the combat post without authorization, which caused the enemy to hit Li Xiannian's headquarters directly, almost causing a disaster.
Even if he made such a serious mistake, Li Xiannian, who loves his talent as well as his life, still didn't want to punish Zhong Wei severely. He just dismissed Zhong Wei from the Party for one year and let him go to school to study.
This punishment is nothing compared with Zhong Wei's mistake, but Zhong Wei is deeply dissatisfied with this result. When he was studying at school, he took his wife and children, as well as eight guards, and quietly left the school to Yancheng.
At that time, the military headquarters of the New Fourth Army was stationed in Yancheng. Zhong Wei broke into the military headquarters coldly and cried bitterly with Chen Yi in his arms.
When Chen Yi saw Zhong Wei suddenly appear here, he was angry and helpless, half jokingly scolded: "Good boy, dare to be a deserter, how did you escape to me?"
Zhong Wei told Chen Yi all his grievances and incomprehension. Chen Yi said helplessly, "Then you shouldn't sneak out. No matter how you deal with it in the end, you should settle down first, have a good rest and keep healthy."
It can be seen from Chen Yi's words that although Zhong Wei's case is serious, Chen Yi has a way to deal with it lightly.
Sure enough, with the help of Chen Yi, Zhong Wei went to the Anti Japanese University Campus to serve as acting principal. After a period of learning, Zhong Wei returned to the battlefield, but it didn't occur to him that Zhong Wei had not returned long ago, and his old habit had been committed again.
In 1947, Zhong Wei was ordered to cooperate with the First Column to fight the New First Army. As a result, he received the news that the 71st and 88th Divisions of the National Army were retreating in the direction of Dehui on the way. Zhong Wei opened the map and saw it. He was ecstatic.
The enemy is fleeing after a defeat. If they launch a surprise attack at this time, they will have no time to respond. Aren't all the advanced American equipment of the enemy ours?
The political commissar beside him looked at Zhong Wei's excited expression, and immediately began to dissuade him: "No way, forget it. We have orders. If we don't enter the battle position at the appointed time, the leader's plan will be completely confused. This time, it's not so easy for you to go to school!"
Zhong Wei patted his chest and promised: "I said that if I can fight, I can fight. The military is of great importance, and my achievements will be fleeting. Then the leader will blame me, and I will bear it alone!"
In the end, the political commissar still failed to persuade Zhong Wei. Zhong Wei led his troops to the mountain garrison to intercept the enemy's deserters.
After the battle began, the enemy launched a strong resistance with the advantage of equipment, but Zhong Wei failed to take it down. Lin Biao found that Zhong Wei was late and sent three telegrams to urge him.
When the third telegram was sent, someone sounded a retreat drum. Zhong Wei glared and scolded, "I will kill whoever dares to withdraw!"
In the end, Zhong Wei caught the big fish, wiped out thousands of enemies and captured a large number of advanced American equipment. When Lin Shuai knew that, he not only didn't criticize, but also praised: "You should all learn from Zhong Wei and dare to fight against orders!"
