On June 25, 1950, the Korean War broke out, and the world pattern changed, but many people know that we won the US army in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, but few people know that Stalin was ruthless to our country. If it weren't for the great strategy of turning the tide and being majestic, New China would probably have been suppressed by the Soviet Union and couldn't hold its head up. What's going on here?
We know that at the beginning of the outbreak of Korea, the KPA could be said to have been like a bamboo, beating the South Korean army to the ground, and once retreated to Busan. If the United States does not intervene, perhaps the Korean Peninsula will be reunified. Why was the Korean People's Army so powerful at that time?
In fact, it was thanks to the Soviet Union's massive assistance to North Korea that they were able to confront South Korea. And the Soviet Union's aid to North Korea was a ruthless blow to China. Stalin was not happy about the founding of New China, because he knew that *** was a very difficult person to deal with. And the Soviet Union is the big brother in the social camp, and naturally it is the little brother who needs to be heard and killed, and as for the country that sits on an equal footing with them and calls them brothers, they do not need it, and China is naturally such a country that is unwilling to bow down to the courtesy.
Before the founding of New China, the Soviet Union stationed a large number of troops in the northeast under the pretext of eliminating the Kwantung Army. At the same time, it also controlled the two cities of Lushun and Dalian of the Eastern Railway. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the chairman began a long escape from the Soviet Union, and finally the two countries signed a treaty of friendship and mutual assistance, and also took back the sovereignty of these two places.
Naturally, Stalin was very unhappy, because in this way the Soviet Union's ability to control the Far East was lost. So Stalin was looking for an opportunity to suppress China, and the outbreak of the Korean War was a perfect opportunity. It has to be said that Stalin's old scheming, and his direct large-scale assistance to North Korea can be said to be a brilliant move.
Because for Stalin, no matter how the Korean War developed, it was beneficial for the USSR. First, if North Korea had won the war and unified the Korean Peninsula, North Korea would have been a small country in the socialist camp that would have been strongly dependent on the Soviet Union. Not only that, but North Korea borders China, and Stalin can further control China through North Korea, so that China will be targeted.
Second, if North Korea loses this war and South Korea unifies the peninsula, so that American power borders China, then China will face a joint attack by the United States and the Soviet Union, which is dangerous for China. Therefore, after that, China will definitely turn to Stalin, and it is very certain that China will definitely turn to the Soviet Union for help, and Stalin can put forward whatever conditions he wants.
But Stalin never thought that he would have such a great talent and strategy, and he had already seen through Stalin's tricks, and he also knew that our country had to participate in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea. Therefore, a large number of Chinese volunteers were sent across the Yalu River to Korea to fight against the United States.
In the case that the equipment of the Volunteer Army is far from the best equipment of the US Army, there are also US troops who have absolute air supremacy. Under the circumstance that everything was unfavorable to the volunteers, our army drove the US army and the North Korean army back to the area south of the 38th parallel with strong willpower.
This plan directly cracked Stalin's calculations, not only shielding our country from the threat of American forces, but also pulling North Korea into the camp of China. Therefore, many people feel that the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea is China's founding battle, which gives China the right to speak in the international community, and also declares to the world that China is the first country to win against the United States, and also tells Stalin that China will never be the little brother of the Soviet Union in the socialist camp, but will be a very important role in the camp.
I have to say that the strategy of *** is really unparalleled, which is the main reason why *** will be admired by the leaders of other countries. After all, if China were not under the leadership of ***, the people would not be able to live a carefree and happy life under the sun.
