The War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea was the largest battle in modern China, and it had a tremendous impact on the situation in China, the DPRK, the West, and the whole world. Judging from the results, there is no doubt that the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea was successful, not only defending the Korean people and stabilizing the situation in Korea, but also preventing the US military from crossing the 38th parallel and threatening the northeast of our country. But until now, many people still question whether the Korean War is worth it, it is nothing more than that it consumes too much national strength, delays the offensive against Taiwan, and so on, is it really worth it to resist US aggression and aid Korea? My answer is yes.
Turning the page of the history of modern China, every page is a chapter of humiliation, from"The sick man of East Asia"In the beginning, the yellow race seemed to have become an inferior, weak, servile people. Not only is the international community's view of China the same, but our internal national self-confidence has been continuously eroded in a century of humiliation, and this influence has continued even to this day. Until the appearance of our volunteers in Korea, MacArthur still did not believe that China would send troops, and he was not shocked that China would send troops, but dared to make such a decision. The U.S. side has ignored all warnings from China, believing that even if China comes to North Korea's aid, it will only return with North Korea"Stone Age"。
Even if we founded the People's Republic of China in 1949, we could not change our image in the eyes of the Western world, and imperialism still regarded China as weak and deceitful. Until the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, it fully demonstrated our determination to resist aggression, and the Chinese people's volunteers used the most backward ** to fight against the strongest in the world at present"The Master of Kings"In the end, the US imperialists were driven out of North Korea, which undoubtedly changed the whole world's perception of China. As *** said:"The Chinese people stood up, and they could not be provoked"。In addition to gaining the recognition of the enemy, more importantly, the Chinese people have been spiritually redeemed, and any nation must go through spiritual rejuvenation on the road to rejuvenation, and the victory of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea has provided the most powerful support for the rejuvenation of Chinese civilization.
At the same time, the war also shattered the myth of the invincibility of American imperialism, and the defeat of American General Clark, who signed the armistice, on the Korean battlefield showed great shame:"I was the first general in American history to not sign a victory agreement"。By striking at US imperialism this time, it greatly alleviated the arrogance of the United States in its four expansions and bullying the weak after World War II. The oppressed people of China and the world are also aware:"Imperialism is all paper tigers",** said with emotion:"The days when the Western world could rule countries by erecting a cannon on one of the shores of the East is over! "。
The most important point is that the Korean War laid the foundation for China's peaceful construction and development, and the Korean War cost China about 62The 500 million yuan in military spending consumed more than 5 million tons of supplies, and China's transportation infrastructure close to North Korea was also damaged. Although these had a negative impact on the economy, we began to further develop the economy after the adjustment of the national economy and the help given to us by the Soviet Union.
Since the main battlefield of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea was in Korea, in order to provide maximum assistance to the Korean volunteers, China converted the northeast to wartime production during this period. In order to ensure the safety of industrial production, a large number of adjustments have also been made to the structure and layout of China's economy: the industrial facilities in the southern region have been gradually transferred to the northern part of the northeast, but fortunately, in the end, the result of the war is inclined to us, preventing the US military from crossing the Korean invasion of the northeast, so after the end of the war, the industrial facilities in the northeast are well preserved, and it also makes our leaders see that if we want to develop the economy, we must first develop industry, which also prompts us to have"The first five-year plan"With the development of heavy industry as the focus, a new round of construction work has begun.
Even if it is moral, we should come to North Korea's aid. As a member of the Comintern family, the DPRK gave great help to the Communist Party in Northeast China during the civil war between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party of China. Without the help of the DPRK, our situation in the Northeast would not have been completed so quickly"Reversal", so out of friendship, we should also give North Korea some help.
Finally, during the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, the whole Chinese people were united in their hearts, and every time the news of victory came, the social cohesion and national self-confidence of all people were greatly enhanced, and at the same time, it also encouraged the production enthusiasm of many people, just as the people's ** issued an editorial on New Year's Day in 1952:"The War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea is not only the purpose of all our work, but also the purpose of all our work. "Only by winning the Korean War can we engage in production and construction with peace of mind, and the historical significance of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea is very significant!
