Mistakes in the Battle of Dongshan, Fujian
The main mistake of the Dongshan Battle in Fujian was that the Kuomingtang overestimated the strength of their paratroopers and underestimated the reconnaissance and air strike strength of the People's Liberation Army. Hu Lian landed hundreds of paratroopers at the Bachimen ferry in batches, intending to occupy this important traffic throat, cut off the connection between Dongshan Island and the mainland, and hinder the reinforcements of the People's Liberation Army. However, he did not realize that the defense forces of the People's Liberation Army were all concentrated in the north of Sufengjian on Dongshan Mountain. They were confronting the heavy firepower of the National Party, and it was almost impossible to take into account the Eight Feet Gate. In addition, Hu Lian's investigation work was also noticed by Ye Fei, a special agent of the People's Liberation Army. He sent the Fujian Military Region garrison 80 Ice Regiment to set up in Chendai Town outside Dongshan Island, but also shouldered the heavy responsibility of defending Chendong Island. Therefore, the mistakes made by the Guomindang in the battle had led to an unfavorable situation.
