The Korean War was the longest armistice negotiation in the world's military history, lasting 747 days, with 58 meetings of delegations from both sides and 733 small meetings.
In 1953, the commander-in-chief was ready to sign the armistice, but a rat poop from Syngman Rhee once again disrupted the impending agreement. Mr. Peng reported to **, suggested that the signing of the armistice agreement be delayed, and believed that it was necessary to annihilate more than 10,000 enemy troops.
His resolute attitude expressed his extreme seriousness in the armistice negotiations and his deep dedication to peace.
Rhee's final act of obstructing the armistice proved to be extremely unwise. So, what was the reason why Mr. Peng resolutely decided to send troops? And for what reason?
In fact, as early as June 1951, the focus of the US global strategy shifted from Asia to Europe, and its main adversary was the Soviet Union. However, anti-war sentiment is running high in the United States, which is costing the United States strategically.
Among the retreating American soldiers**, we can see American soldiers with bloodied faces, blank eyes, dazed and desperate faces. Their relatives were furious at seeing these and took to the streets to demonstrate, questioning why the Korean armistice talks had lasted so long.
However, the reality is that both sides of the initial negotiations understood that success was not possible. On July 10, 1951, the first negotiation between the three parties was held in Laifengzhuang, Kaesong, a region controlled by our side.
Despite the difficulties, the two sides still insisted on dialogue and tried to find a solution to the problem.
U.S. generals are feeling tremendous pressure in the Sino-North Korean negotiations because they find themselves no longer in control of the situation. This negotiation was unsuccessful because the US military did not show sincerity.
This has long been foreseen and the army has been instructed to prepare for long battles and talks while fighting.
** On August 18, 1952, the Volunteer Army began to instruct the Volunteer Army, and after arduous efforts, it was not until May 1952 that the Korean Armistice Agreement finally made significant progress.
Although much of the agenda has been agreed, the issue of the arrangement of prisoners of war remains the biggest obstacle to the signing of the agreement. In order to end the war as soon as possible and allow the enemy to finally make concessions, the Volunteer Army waged resolute struggle and negotiation between September 18 and October 31, 1952, and on October 14, 1952, and finally succeeded in promoting the signing of the armistice agreement.
In response to the protracted delay in the Korean War, on February 7, 1953, ** delivered an important speech, pointing out the direction for us.
Eisenhower of the United States, after facing the tough statements of the United States and China, had to re-examine the possibility of armistice negotiations in Korea. After a hiatus of six months and 18 days, negotiations resumed on 26 April 1953 and an agreement was finally reached on the "repatriation of prisoners of war".
Eisenhower, eager to end the war as soon as possible, insisted on negotiations, but Syngman Rhee was adamantly opposed to it, repeatedly stating publicly that he would "not negotiate with the Communists."
Syngman Rhee announced that South Korea would withdraw from the United States in an attempt to unify Korea by going north alone, but the United States** pledged to increase aid to stop the war as soon as possible. However, Rhee did not appreciate appeasement, and Eisenhower wrote a letter criticizing him for defiing the command of the coalition and warning him that his dream of unification by force was unrealistic.
Rhee's actions caused Eisenhower to worry about the breakdown of the armistice, and US Secretary of State Dulles publicly rebuked Rhee and warned China not to shift the blame to the United States.
** Furious when he learned that Syngman Rhee had taken prisoners of war, he realized that he could not pin his hopes on the United States and needed the support of his own military strength.
On July 13, 1953, ** and Mr. Peng jointly planned the Battle of Jincheng. The battle lasted from July 13 to July 27, a total of 15 days.
1.The results of the Battle of Jincheng proved that the support of the United Nations was crucial for the army of ***. The battle's valiant volunteers contrasted sharply with the fragile forces of Syngman Rhee, who eventually capitulated to the threat of the United States and accepted the armistice.
2.The outcome of the Battle of Kinseong reaffirmed Eisenhower's view that Rhee's army could not cope with the onslaught of volunteers without the support of the United Nations.
After assessing the situation, Syngman Rhee decided not to obstruct the signing of the armistice agreement and promised that the interests of South Korea would not be harmed. Three days later, the United States and South Korea** jointly announced the conclusion of an armistice.
At 11 o'clock, Senior General Nam Il and Harrison of the Korean People's Army signed the armistice agreement on behalf of their respective countries. First, each signs the text prepared by each side, and then each signs the other party's text.
The whole process lasted just ten minutes. North Korean leader Kim Il Sung officially signed the agreement in Pyongyang, and Joint Commander-in-Chief Clark signed it in Wensan.
The War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea ended quickly after the signing of the armistice agreement, and the armistice order was quickly issued to all units in the DPRK and China, and on July 27, 1953, the war that lasted two years and nine months came to an end.
