When the Korean War broke out in 1950, the United States single-handedly covered the sky and distorted the facts of the civil war, and established 16 allies"Joint**"Support for South Korea. Among these 16 countries, the combat effectiveness of the British ** team is the first, only below the United States. As a sign of sincerity, the British sent three ace armies: the Royal Scotsman Regiment, the Gloucester Battalion, and the Royal Heavy Tank Battalion. The Royal Heavy Tank Battalion, for example, was not only well-equipped, but also had a world-famous one at the time"Churchill"Heavy tanks, which are the main thing on the battlefield. The Gloucester battalion was the only one in the British army"Double cockade"Troops, with a glorious record in history, had an expedition to Egypt to defeat Napoleon.
The British army, which had overwhelming firepower and equipment, did not play well on the battlefield. In the three battles with the Volunteer Army, three battles and three defeats. In the Battle of Maleonn Mountain, it took only 3 hours for the British army"Royal Scots"was annihilated by the volunteers in one fell swoop. In the third battle, our army attacked the heavy tank battalion of the British army with the night attack tactics that we are good at. The weather on the Korean Peninsula was bad, and the only thin piece of cloth on the volunteers resisted the severe cold of minus 30 degrees. Even so, the volunteers still lay on their stomachs in the snow and did not move. In this way, the volunteers relied on their skillful concealment skills to give the British Royal Tank Battalion a boost"One-pot end"。
China's art of war also emphasizes that soldiers do not tire of deceit, and it was also studied and used by the volunteers on the Korean battlefield. In the battle of Namsan Mountain in Bugok-ri, the volunteers were divided into two routes, one of the volunteers first hid in the snow for several hours, and the other part of the volunteers disguised as Koreans to pass through the barrier and successfully penetrated the enemy's interior. As soon as they approached the enemy, the volunteers quickly pulled out their guns and fired a wave of strafing, and then engaged in a fierce struggle with the British with bayonets. After that, the volunteers sounded the trumpet of the charge. The volunteers, who had been in ambush for a long time, rushed out, and after a night of fighting, both sides suffered heavy losses.
In order to seize the commanding heights, the enemy was encircled and suppressed. The commander of the 347th Regiment sent the strongest 7th Company, and the 7th Company shouldered the heavy responsibility and set off towards the commanding heights of Pugu, after the confrontation between the two armies, the enemy fought by the Volunteer Army was defeated and retreated, and took the lead in occupying the small high ground, taking advantage of the superior terrain conditions to launch a fierce attack on the enemy. The enemy continued to try to counterattack, and even concentrated firepower to suppress the fire of the volunteers, due to the superiority of British equipment, the volunteers after the enemy's fierce attack, the two leaders were sacrificed one after another.
Just when the dragons were leaderless, the commander took up the task and divided the remaining 13 people into combat teams. Unfortunately, the British firepower was too fierce, and after some fighting, only 3 people remained in the 7th Company. The trumpeter blew the trumpet of the charge with a quick move, and as soon as the trumpet sounded, it successfully disrupted the enemy's battle plan and shook the enemy's morale, and the British troops immediately fled in all directions. Soon friendly forces came to support, and the volunteers successfully won the battle.
After the Volunteers annihilated the Royal Scots Regiment and the Royal Heavy Tank Battalion one after another, only the Gloucester Battalion remained intact. But in the fifth campaign, the only remaining British ace army was also a volunteer army. The 200,000 volunteers crossed the 38th parallel with high spirits and attacked the enemy in a fierce attack, and then the 63rd Army encircled and suppressed the Gloucester battalion in several ways. For a time, the Gloucester battalion suffered a heavy blow, and the United ** sent the Philippine army to rescue, but it was intercepted by the volunteers, and it was difficult to escape. The Gloucester battalion tried to use deep trenches to dodge the heavy artillery fire of the volunteers, but was attacked by the volunteers, ** heavy, the remaining soldiers lost their armor and fled in all directions, and finally were captured by the volunteers one by one and put into a prisoner of war camp.
In the prisoner of war camp there was British General Hawley, who joined the war at the age of 17, fought with Germany during World War II, and joined the United ** to participate in the Korean War after World War II. After being captured by the Volunteers, he spent two years in a prisoner of war camp. After the end of the Korean War, Hawley was released. Since then, he has participated in many battles and performed many miraculous feats. After being discharged from the army, Hawley summed up his life on the battlefield, and after fighting with the German army, the American army, the Soviet Union, and China, he really felt that the Chinese infantry was much stronger than the infantry of Germany, the Soviet Union, and the United States.
On the Korean battlefield, the Chinese volunteers did not have tanks and other heavy **, nor did they have superior air force, and even the guns were made in all countries. The war was won only by the physical fitness of the infantry, the strategic talent of forethought, and the spirit of perseverance and unity. After the end of the Korean War, the whole world looked at China with admiration, and it also made the two major powers, the United States and the Soviet Union, afraid of China. Today's China is no longer the same as in the past, and after more than a decade of rapid development, China already has a land, sea and air force that can defend its sovereignty.
