When the people heard this, they said: "The territory of Korea is the glorious victory of the Chinese volunteers." Some people may say that their words are excessive, but if they describe the whole picture of historical facts, they may be able to understand the profundity of this statement.
Kim Il Sung, faced with hardship, after World War II, Korea was divided into two ends, the north and the south. To the north is the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, where Kim Il Sung led the Communist Party of Korea to powerSouth Korea **, the Liberal Party led by Syngman Rhee is in power, relying on the United States.
Since 1949, disputes between the North and the South have frequented on the frontier, and hatred has gradually risen. By June 1950, the conflict had intensified, and the flames of war had raged between the north and the south. However, at that time, it was only a domestic war in Korea, and no trace of other countries was involved.
North Korea and South Korea had the same strength, but the North Army was composed of the Fourth Field Army in Northeast China, Korean warriors trained by the Soviet Union, and former guerrillas. Although South Korea has good weapons, most of its soldiers are recruits and students who have not seen the war. As a result, North Korea's combat power is far superior to that of South Korea.
In the first battle between the north and the south, Kim Il Sung's army took the lead with courage and fought fiercely for three days, that is, 40,000 enemies were annihilated, and the capital Seoul was captured. In order to safeguard its interests in Korea, Truman ordered the US Far East Air Force to assist South Korea and formed a "Joint Expeditionary Force" to intervene in the war, resulting in the Korean Civil War gradually turning into a war of aggression by US imperialism.
However, the Korean People's Army (KPA) was victorious and morale was high, and the intervention of the US military failed to stop its advance. By July 20, the KPA had liberated Daejeon, Mokpo on July 24, and Jinju on July 31.
However, behind the vigorous growth of the People's Army, a potential crisis is quietly looming. Kim Il Sung's operational command was only concerned with attacking South Korea and neglecting the defense of the territory that had been gained. Most of the liberated areas are empty cities, and the important port of Incheon has only 1,600 defenders. This is when the United States is taking advantage of the situation.
On September 15, 1950, General MacArthur of the U.S. Army led the 10th Army Corps to land at Inchon and harass the rear of the Korean People's Army. The U.S. troops trapped in Busan also took the opportunity to attack, and the KPA was pursued by enemy soldiers in front of them, and then intercepted them, and they fell into a desperate situation.
In this battle, the Korean People's Army suffered a heavy defeat and was completely dispersed, and the liberated areas became a place where guerrillas gathered. MacArthur pursued the KPA north of the 38th parallel, forcing the Korean People's Army under Kim Il Sung to retreat to the Chinese border.
On the first day of October of that year, Kim Il Sung sent an urgent telegram saying: "At present, the enemy has no time to think about the situation when he is trapped in China, and if he invades the north of the 38th parallel one after another, it will be difficult for me to solve this urgent crisis, and I would like to hope that your country will help us directly in the battle." Kim Il Sung's call for help shows that the North Korean military has collapsed.
It has been learned that on the eve of the entry of the Chinese People's Volunteers, Kim Il Sung's Korean People's Army had only three divisions left, all of which were turned into guerrillas.
At the beginning of the Korean War, the Soviet Union vowed to always support the DPRK. However, when Korea was lost, the Soviet Union hesitated, worrying about domestic turmoil and international status. The DPRK had no choice but to urgently call for help from China.
However, the war situation in China was not favorable at that time. In the new China, the pain of the long war has not yet healed. All industries are in ruins, and financial constraints are scarce. Although China has been baptized by war, its armament is only millet plus rifles, which is dwarfed by the planes and tanks of the US military.
Lead dissent, fall into a state of contemplation. Is this condition combatable?If it does not win, China will be in danger again. However, the neighbors are in danger and are safely ignoredThe lips are dead and the teeth are cold, and the Chinese people know this.
In addition, the friends of the DPRK once shared the same hatred and hatred with Kim Il Sung, and the Korean people also bravely took on the responsibility in the War of Resistance Against Japan. Now that North Korea is in danger, how can China sit idly by?
Finally, the chairman made a historic choice - to resist US aggression and aid Korea, and defend the country!On October 19, 1950, the Chinese People's Volunteers, led by Marshal **, crossed the Yalu River and plunged into the Korean battlefield.
After the volunteers came to Korea, they first sought out the scattered Korean People's Army, learned its language, organized it into a guerrilla unit, and corrected its morale. Then the first battle was planned, the responsibilities of the Chinese and North Korean armies were clearly separated, and the commander-in-chief was established. At the same time, the plan for the first battle with the enemy is launched.
On October 25, the Chinese People's Volunteers joined forces with the Korean People's Army to launch the first war against the joint alliance of the United States imperialism. Due to the haste with which our troops entered the country, the enemy's actions exceeded our plans. Our Volunteer Army changed its combat strategy, implemented the tactics of annihilating the enemy during the movement, and made good use of the weakness of our army hiding in the enemy's unknown and dividing troops to advance rashly, and the main force was assembled in Bocheon, Unsan, etc., to destroy the enemy during the movement, and finally the army was assembled in the Sinuiju and Ji'an areas to prepare for future response.
On 5 November, the battle situation was victorious, our army annihilated 15,500 enemy troops, forced the enemy to the south of the Yalu River, shattered the enemy's illusory illusion of annexing Korea before "Thanksgiving", and at the same time skillfully sheltered the Korean People's Army from retreating northward, laying the foundation for the subsequent war. On 25 November, our army once again launched a second campaign, making good use of the arrogance and arrogance of the US troops, deliberately showing weakness, luring the enemy into depth, concentrating the main forces on the western front, launching a counter-surprise attack on the enemy, and adopting roundabout and dividing tactics to completely annihilate the enemy army. On 24 December, the battle was won, and our army occupied all the territory of Korea except for Yangyang, forcing the enemy south of the 38th parallel, turning the whole tide of the war.
On December 31, 1950, our army ushered in the third battle. Out of political considerations, our army decided to break the 38th parallel ahead of schedule and change the rest plan. When approaching the 37th parallel, our army's alert saw through the enemy's plan to move south, quickly stopped the pursuit, and instead held on. By 8 January, the battle was victorious, our army had annihilated more than 19,000 enemies, and the front had advanced 80 to 110 kilometers. After three battles, our army was tired and in urgent need of rest. Due to the approaching cold season, the construction of fortifications is difficult and there is a shortage of materials. In the fourth campaign, our army switched from offensive to defensive, annihilating more than 77,000 enemies within three months, and maintaining the battle line near the 38th parallel.
On April 22, 1951, our army launched the fifth campaign, aimed at crushing the enemy's landing plan. During the campaign, our army adopted an in-depth offensive to cut off the enemy's overall defense mechanism, concentrated the main force to carry out a roundabout assault, successfully annihilated more than 82,000 enemy troops, mastered a large amount of enemy materials and equipment, and pushed the battle situation to the negotiating table.
In the negotiation stage, our army took positional warfare as the main form of operation, protracted and active defense, supplemented by military operations to coordinate armistice negotiations, and achieved strategic superiority through strike negotiations. However, in July 1951, the United States put forward the "overlord clause" in the armistice negotiations and carried out a "strangulation war" against the Chinese and North Korean troops, trying to achieve its goals through military coercion. Our army faced the battle, carried out a defensive battle in the summer and autumn that lasted for nearly six months, overcame many difficulties, and finally smashed the enemy's offensive and firmly stabilized the battle line at the 38th parallel.
In the spring of 1952, negotiations reached an impasse, and the U.S. military launched bacteriological warfare in flagrant violation of international law in order to achieve its goals. Our army quickly took precautions, strengthened the defense of the railway, and ensured the safe transportation of medical supplies.
In the autumn of 1952, the Chinese and North Korean armies made concerted efforts to carry out organized and planned tactical counterattack operations in an orderly manner, seizing the positions below many battalions of the "United **". Then, in the Battle of Shangganling, our army successfully smashed the "Jinhua Offensive" launched by the "United **".
In the spring of 1953, seeing that our army's land defense was solid, the enemy attempted to carry out an amphibious landing from the east and west coasts of Korea to carry out an external attack. Our army was aware of this and made careful preparations, which ultimately thwarted the enemy's plans and allowed the armistice negotiations to resume after six months of stagnation.
In the summer of 1953, through 75 days of fighting, our army shattered the illusion that South Korea would move north, forced the United States to make a pledge of an armistice agreement, and promoted the realization of the armistice.
On July 27, 1953, the United States was forced to sign the Korean Armistice Agreement, agreeing that North Korea would return all land north of the 38th parallel. North Korea initially had only three divisions of guerrilla troops, and its hopes of resisting the American army were almost dashed, but after China's entry into the war, it succeeded in owning 60% of the territory of the Korean Peninsula and completely freed itself from the aggression of US imperialism. The squadron has indeed made great achievements in the rescue of North Korea and made great contributions to the independence and security of North Korea.
In the United States, the Korean War was called the "Forgotten War" because it traumatized the United States and touched American self-esteem. But in China, this war can never be forgotten. In 1950, the domestic economy was poor and white, and all walks of life were in ruins, but the squadron fought bloodily for 2 years and 9 months, and beat the world's largest country back to its base camp, which is a miracle!It was not the right time and place that created this miracle, but our volunteer soldiers!
The difficult years of the Korean War, witnessed by the ice sculptures on the shore of Changjin Lake. With a severe cold of minus 40 degrees, a lack of warm clothing, and an ambush for 6 days and 6 nights, the 6th Company of the 177th Regiment of the 59th Division of the 20th Army of the Chinese People's Volunteers, the 2nd Company of the 180th Regiment of the 60th Division, and the 5th Company of the 242nd Regiment of the 80th Division of the 27th Army held their positions until they became "ice sculptures". In the most extreme conditions, the volunteer fighters still fought, full of unwavering faith in victory in battle and the security of the Motherland.
During the Korean War, Chinese volunteers made great sacrifices and efforts to defend and rescue their friends. This history is always worth remembering.
At that moment of life and death struggle, Yang Gensi stepped forward, clenched the blaster with both hands, his eyes spewed fire, and his blood surged. He heroically held the "1071 Heights" and personally led the whole company in the fierce battle to prevent the US troops from escaping south, and successfully repelled eight fierce attacks by the enemy. However, during the 9th attack, all the soldiers of the entire company died heroically, leaving only Yang Gensi, the tenacious company commander. Faced with the situation that more than 40 enemy soldiers climbed onto the position, and the position was about to be lost, Yang Gensi gritted his teeth, endured the pain all over his body, jumped into the enemy position with the explosive bag, lit the fuse, and died with the enemy. Life is precious, but for Yang Gensi, the value of the motherland is even higher. Our fighters are willing to give up their lives in a critical moment to defend their positions and defend victory in battle!
Liu Guangzi, on the battlefield where planes swept and artillery roared, defeated the British ace army with only one machine gun and one grenade, and captured 63 British prisoners. When Stalin asked him how he had achieved such brilliant results, Liu Guangzi smiled shyly and said: "The British devils are afraid of death, I am not afraid of death, anyway, they were out at that time, these guys were beaten stupid by me, and obediently obeyed my command!"."Our fighters are not only brave, but also lovely. They are fearless heroes on the battlefield, and after winning the battle, they are ordinary people who have returned home with honor.
Xie Xiumei is a heroine of China's War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea. In an evacuation campaign, in the face of the indiscriminate bombing of enemy planes, she disregarded her own safety, and the first thing she thought of was the wounded in the ward. Braving the billowing smoke and fire, she rushed into the burning ward, carried the wounded Li Yonghua, who had time to evacuate in the future, and finally took him safely to the bomb shelter. Faced with the threat of bombs, she used her body to block Li Yonghua, but she was seriously injured. On the battlefields of Korea, women also radiated the light of tenacity and courage.
In this War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, more than 1.1 million heroic sons and daughters of China paid for their lives, nearly 3.9 million warriors were injured on the battlefield, and hundreds of thousands of people were disabled for life. **'s son Mao Anying also sacrificed his young life to protect his family and defend the country. Their sacrifices and sacrifices are to defend the motherland and defend justice. As *** said: "For the sake of sacrifice and ambition, dare to teach the sun and the moon to change the sky." "With their own blood and sacrifice, the Chinese volunteer soldiers won peace for North Korea and wrote an eternal heroic epic for the motherland.
