The Huaihai campaign (Chinese: 淮海戰役; pinyin: Huáihǎi Zhànyì), or Battle of Hsupeng (traditional Chinese: 徐蚌會戰; simplified Chinese: 徐蚌会战; pinyin: Xúbèng Huìzhàn), was one of the military conflicts in the late stage of the Chinese Civil War between the Kuomintang and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). The campaign started when the People's Liberation Army (PLA) launched a major offensive against the Kuomintang headquarters in Xuzhou on 6 November 1948, and ended on 10 January 1949 when the PLA reached the north of the Yangtze.
