He was elected to the central executive committee of the Soviet Republic of China twice. In September 1934, he served as a political commissar of the 8th Red Army Corps and the 21st division. In the face of the fact that the army was in a low mood after the defeat of the fifth anti "encirclement and suppression" campaign, he encouraged everyone: "our party is still there, the Red Army is still there, and we will certainly be able to overcome difficulties and defeat the enemy by following the party and the Red Army." Later, he led the Ministry to take part in the long march. In January 1935, he returned to be a political commissar of the 1st division of the 1st Red Army Corps.

It has made important contributions to the successful completion of the long march by the Central Red Army. In September 1935, the first and third army regiments of the Red Army were organized into the Shaanxi Gansu detachment of the Chinese workers' and peasants' Red Army. Huang Su served successively as the political commissar of the second and fifth brigade of the Shaanxi Gansu detachment. On November 7, when the first front red army arrived at Wayaobao, the center of the Shaanxi Gansu base, it immediately organized a counterattack against the "encirclement and suppression" of the Kuomintang army in the Shaanxi Gansu base, and decided to launch a annihilation war in Zhiluo town on November 20. At this time, Huang Su, who had been appointed political commissar of the 73rd division of Southern Shaanxi by the Central Revolutionary Military Commission, voluntarily requested to participate in the campaign. At dawn on November 21, Huang Su led his troops to attack the key parts of the enemy's army. The enemy fought stubbornly in the key areas. The two sides fought mountain by mountain. Unfortunately, Huang Su was shot and died when he led his troops to seize the top of the mountain. He was only 27 years old. In summing up the campaign, Mao Zedong said: we are always ready to sacrifice. Our sacrifice is in exchange for the liberation of workers and peasants all over the country and the world. Comrade Huang Su is a member of the Central Committee, and his sacrifice is meaningful.
