capacities throughout his long career. He distinguished himself
early on by successfully defending important posts against the
Japanese occupation. These efforts culminated in several successful
sieges in 1944 and the capture of the strategic Linlong in Yunnan.
In 1949 General Huang led 30,000 troops to Vietnam and
occupied Phu Quoc Island. Thereafter he decided to settle in
Taiwan. There he served in senior civilian capacities, first as the
Governor of Taiwan Province from 1962 to 1969 and then the
Minister of Defence from 1969 to 1972.

General Huang was an enthusiastic art practitioner and aficionado.
He was a poet and avid calligrapher. He befriended many of the
artists of his period and enjoyed looking at paintings with them,
as well as often collecting their works, including those of Zhang
Daqian, Qi Baishi, and Pu Ru.
