At a certain lecture, a foreign reporter suddenly asked the keynote speaker, General Jin Yinan, an extremely unreasonable question, claiming that the Chinese Volunteers used the "crowd tactics" to defeat the US military in those years, and that it was a victory or not a military victoryAfter thinking for a while, General Jin Yinan responded with a smile: At that time, the United States brought 15 "little brothers" to fight against the volunteers, and the level of equipment was far superior to that of the volunteersThe reporter was speechless by Jin Yinan's words, so he could only silently bow his head to hide his embarrassment.
Now a lot of information says that the number of volunteers participating in the war is 2.9 million, which does not mean that the total strength of the volunteers is 2.9 million, but that the number of officers and soldiers invested by the volunteers has been 2.9 million. The strength of the Volunteer Army in North Korea has always been maintained at about 1.3 million, while the United ** is about 1.2 million, and the difference between the two sides is not much.
In some foreign-filmed film and television dramas, the image of the volunteers is usually relatively first, and every time there is a war, the volunteers will charge the South Korean army or the US military position, as if the tide is shocking. This seems to be "praising the volunteers", but in fact it is secretly belittling the volunteers, and satirizing the volunteers will only rely on numerical superiority to win.
In real history, the Volunteer Army attaches great importance to tactical coordination, and has always adopted the "three three to" when attacking, covering each other's advances, and never charging without brains. When companies and platoons attack, the volunteers will disperse all their fighters on a battlefield hundreds of meters wide, and attack in echelons under the cover of mortars and machine guns. After each battle, a summary meeting will be held to commend the advantages, criticize the shortcomings, supervise each other, improve together, and strive for more perfect tactical coordination next time.
In large-scale operations, the Volunteer Army usually adopts the tactic of interspersing, using regiments and battalions as units to infiltrate the rear of the enemy-occupied area from the gaps in the enemy's defense line, and then divide, encircle, and annihilate the enemy's army. The United ** was dizzy by this set of tactics of the Volunteer Army, and it was not until after Li Qiwei took office that the United ** slightly recovered some of the decline through magnetic tactics.
You must know that at that time, the joint ** not only had a high level of equipment, but also had a sound logistics support systemThe ** equipment used by the volunteer army is basically captured by the Japanese army and the Kuomintang army, and it is generally old, and it cannot be compared with the United ** at all. But even so, we did not fall behind in the slightest when fighting against the United States, and played the demeanor of the people's armed forces.
In the Battle of Shangganling, in order to take the position of the volunteers, the joint ** repeatedly gathered heavy troops to impact the positions of the volunteers, and they did not have any specific tactics when attacking, that is, pure, unorganized charge. The veterans of the Volunteer Army are very experienced in dealing with the charge of the joint **, first use machine guns to drive them from both sides to the middle, and after they are gathered, they will throw grenades at them, which can kill and wound more than ten enemies at a time.
The United ** and the Volunteer Army have been fighting for nearly 3 years, and they have tried all methods, but they just can't defeat the Volunteer Army, and in the long run, the officers and soldiers of the United ** will inevitably have a war-weary feeling, and everyone very much hopes that the war can end as soon as possible, so that they can go home and reunite with their families. On the other hand, the United States invested huge resources in the war, but failed to achieve the desired results, which made the people disappointed in the United States, and everyone began to march to demand that the war must be ended immediately and peace must be restored.
Under strong pressure, the United States was forced to choose a compromise and took the initiative to negotiate peace with the volunteers, and the two sides finally ceased war in mid-1953. The Americans later included many battles in the Korean War in their military academy textbooks, and since then, many military experts have systematically studied the Korean War and published many monographs. This was the first defeat suffered by the Americans, and it is still a "disgrace" for the United States. Later, in order to save their respect, some people forcibly fabricated rumors, claiming that the volunteers relied on numerical superiority to win, which is comical and absurd, and is not worth refuting at all.
Our soldiers dare to wear single clothes and lie in the snow to ambush the United Army, and they also dare to grit their teeth and remain motionless when they are burned in the flamesFor this victory, we also paid a relatively heavy sacrifice, tens of thousands of officers and soldiers unfortunately died in a foreign land, including Comrade Mao Anying, the son of ***. While we enjoy the good life of the moment, we must not forget the soldiers who fought bloodily on the front line!
