Chuikov, General Vasili (1900–82),Soviet army officer who served as a military adviser to
Chiang Kai-shek from 1927 to 1929, then commanded the Fourth Army which occupied eastern Poland in the
Polish campaign. He was commander of the Ninth Army in the
Finnish–Soviet war and was promoted lt-general in June 1940. But the Ninth Army was defeated by the Finns and Chuikov was banished to China in December 1940 as Soviet Military attaché. In March 1942 he was appointed commander of the First Reserve Army (later Sixty-Fourth Army) and that September took command of the Sixty-Second Army defending
Stalingrad. ‘We shall either hold the city or die there,’ he stated and became known to his men as ‘General Stubbornness’. He remained in command of the Sixty-Second Army (renamed the Eighth Guards Army in April 1943) which he led until the end of the war, taking part in the
liberation of eastern Poland and in the
fall of Berlin where he received the surrender of the city's garrison. See also
German–Soviet war.
