Last time, I introduced Commander Ye Ting to you. This week, I will tell you the story of General Su Yu.
In August 1927, Su Yu came to Nanchang with the teaching regiment of the 24th Division of the 11th Army to participate in the uprising. After the victory of the uprising, the troops evacuated south to Guangdong in batches. At that time, Su Yu carried two rifles, more than 200 rounds of bullets, backpacks, military blankets, water bottles, lunch boxes, iron picks, shovels, etc., in addition to the shell guns and bullets he carried with him.
On September 30, the main force of the insurgent army lost in Chaoshan area. Su Yu's troops retreated to Raoping to meet with Zhu De's 25th Division and the teaching regiment. They all started to fight hard along the border of Guangdong, Fujian, Hunan and Jiangxi. When the troops reached Wuping on the border of Fujian and Jiangxi, a fierce battle was launched with the chasing enemy. In order to cover the transfer of the large army, he and his comrades fought fiercely. The enemy did not know the truth and retreated in a hurry. Suddenly, a bullet passed through the temporal bone of Su Yu's head on the upper side of his right ear. Su Yu only felt a sudden blow to his head, and immediately fell to the ground, unable to move, and woke up after a long time. Later, with the help of comrades, he stumbled all the way to catch up with the troops. Although Su Yu was shot and wounded in the head, he still followed Zhu De and Chen Yi to Jinggang Mountain with an exceptionally firm revolutionary will.
