On July 12, 1984, Chinese artillery fired more than two days’ worth of ammunition in a single morning of the Battle of Laoshan in the Sino-Vietnamese border. The man responsible for keeping that fire going under pressure was Zhang Youxia — then a rising PLA officer, who rose to become the most powerful military figure in China.
This episode begins a short mini-series on how the People’s Liberation Army became a modern, professional force, told through Zhang’s experience in one of the most intense border battles of the Cold War.
In Episode 1, we follow:
• the Chinese and Vietnamese positions at Laoshan
• how artillery and logistics shaped the battle
• and how Zhang Youxia’s performance under fire launched his career
Future episodes will trace how that battlefield experience later shaped China’s senior military leadership.
