However, both of them are stubborn and stubborn, so some conflicts inevitably arise at work.

Of course, both of them are open-minded people and do not resent each other due to work conflicts. After Mr. Peng was criticized at the Lushan Conference, someone came to persuade Su Yu to speak out and vindicate himself. But Su Yu refused, saying: "I don't want Peng Dehuai to raise my own issues when he is being criticized."

Finally, he said to Liu Yalou: "Su Yu is really good at fighting. , I dare not make up my mind for the battles he fought."

In 1958, Su Yu was criticized, and Lin Biao rarely spoke for him: "I have been sick and don't understand that in this meeting, the battle is won. Criminals, those who lose the battle are heroes, I will not participate in this meeting."
