T'ang En-po (Tang Enbo) was a Whampoa veteran and one of the very
best Chinese generals. At the battle
of Taierzhuang, T'ang led the units that cut off the Japanese retreat.
T'ang commanded the Kuomintang 31 Army Group in December 1941.
IN 1949, during the final stages of the civil war, Chiang Kai-shek appointed T'ang governor of Fukien province, across the straits from Formosa (Taiwan), in anticipation of the final Kuomintang retreat.
