Battle of Siping (1946)

On the Chinese Revolution map as “Siping”

Apr–May 1946 — Lin Biao’s army tries to hold a rail junction conventionally and loses 40,000 men; the Nationalists take Manchuria’s cities to the Sungari. It looks like victory — but it is the far edge of an 1,800-km supply line, and the countryside between the garrisons is already turning red.
