That is,1950101October 25th to1953 July 23rd * * * two years and nine months of war.

As a war for the founding of the people's Republic of China, this war also caused the United States to suffer the worst failure since the founding of the people's Republic of China, and directly affected the subsequent development of the United States and the world.

Moreover, this war is not the "Korean War" written in detail by some experts, let alone the "Korean War" advocated by some famous people. It was a civil war on the Korean peninsula, from1June 25th, 950 to1June 25th, 950.

After World War II, two countries were established on the Korean Peninsula north and south of the 38th parallel. The government of Kim Il Sung supported by the Soviet Union is ambitious and tries to unify the Korean Peninsula by force.

1On June 25th, 950, the Korean People's Army launched a large-scale attack on the government of Li Chengwan, South Korea, and the south Korean army was wiped out. Subsequently, the US military commander MacArthur launched the Incheon Landing War on September 15, and the situation on the Korean battlefield was reversed.

Subsequently, the United Nations forces led by the United States launched a large-scale attack on North Korea, bombing border cities such as Dandong in China, and the war burned to the Yalu River.

At this time, Stalin encouraged Kim Il Sung to turn to our country for help, and repeatedly hinted that Kim Il Sung should set up a government in exile in Northeast China. Facing the extremely dangerous situation, China warned the United States not to cross the 38th parallel, and requested the Soviet Union to provide weapons and air cover.

However, because the American plane accidentally bombed the Soviet Far East airport, the frightened Stalin broke his word. Without the cover of the Soviet Air Force, Chinese people's Volunteer Army had to cross the Yalu River into the northern part of the Korean Peninsula in June 1950+ 10/9.

1950101On October 25th, the 8th Corps joined the vanguard troops of the United Nations Army in Wenjing, the western front, and the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea officially started.

In view of MacArthur's left hook plan, a volunteer army blocked the United Nations army from going north on the eastern front, and the 1 division of five armies attacked the arrogant United Nations army head-on on the western front, which defeated MacArthur's plan to occupy all Korea before Thanksgiving and drove the United Nations army to the south of Qingchuan River.

MacArthur, who suffered a head-on blow, didn't believe that our government dared to participate in the war. MacArthur flew to the north of Korea to investigate, but found no trace of the volunteers, so he came to the conclusion that the volunteers were only a small force. And volunteers in MacArthur's nose, completed a large-scale rally.

From 1950,165438+17 October, the volunteers launched a large-scale attack on the United Nations forces from both east and west. Six armies on the western front launched a surprise attack on the enemy south of Qingchuan River. The Third Army of the Eastern Front surrounded the United Nations troops around Changjin Lake on the Gaima Plateau in northeast Korea.

At this time, the Korean peninsula suffered the worst winter in decades. In order to completely surround the first division of American cavalry, the Ninth Corps of the Eastern Front suffered a large number of non-combat staff reduction around Changjin Lake, freezing to death and frostbite 1 1, more than 1,000 people.

During the whole period of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, three companies of volunteers were frozen to death in the Korean battlefield. They are the 59th Division of the 20th Army/the 6th Company of KLOC-0/77 Regiment, the 2nd Company of KLOC-0/80 Regiment, and the 5th Company of the 242nd Regiment of the 80th Division of the 27th Army.

MacArthur broke his word and shouted to end the war before Christmas. He stubbornly believed that the volunteers entered the DPRK only to defend the border facilities and sent a large number of United Nations soldiers to the jaws of death.

After the second battle, the United Nations troops on the East-West Line retreated to the south of the 38th parallel. On 1950, 12 and 3 1, the volunteers launched the third battle across the 38th parallel, drove the United Nations troops to the south of the 38th parallel, occupied Seoul, the capital of South Korea, and shocked the world.

At this time, MacArthur never looked down on the volunteers, and crazy Max couldn't come up with effective countermeasures, and the United Nations army, including the US army, fell into unprecedented despair.

However, Li Qiwei, Commander-in-Chief of the Eighth Army, found that the logistics supply of the volunteers was seriously insufficient, and put forward a "magnetic tactic" to block the logistics supply line of the volunteers in the air while keeping a distance from the volunteers.

Sure enough, when the volunteers retreated from the north after winning the third battle, Li Qiwei quickly rallied to fight back. On June 25th 195 1, the volunteers began a tenacious defensive counterattack near the 38th parallel.

After the extremely tragic counter-offensive in Hengcheng and the battle in Dipingli, the war situation stabilized near the 38th parallel again.

Although the United Nations Army discovered the weakness of the volunteers, it could never destroy their tenacious will, and MacArthur was humiliated in front of the United States and even the whole world.

With nothing to do, the furious MacArthur clamored to bomb China's coastal areas, demanding that the US Congress allow Chiang Kai-shek's government to participate in the war, and even used nuclear weapons in the Korean battlefield. Coupled with his unruly personality, American President Truman finally couldn't stand it.

1951April1kloc-0/day, the white house removed MacArthur from all his posts by radio. The arrogant five-star general, after being defeated by the volunteers, delivered a farewell speech entitled "Veterans Never Die" and completely disappeared into the dust of history.

After Li Qiwei replaced MacArthur, the Volunteers launched the even more tragic fifth campaign on April 22nd. Volunteers and United Nations troops fought and lost repeatedly in the south of the 38th parallel. Although they destroyed many enemies, their losses were equally heavy, and the front line remained near the 38th parallel.

After more than half a year of fighting, both China and the United States realized that it was impossible to break the deadlock, and the two sides began arduous and long armistice negotiations.

For the United States, the front has retreated from the 38th parallel to the 38th parallel. Although I didn't win, I saved face. For the volunteers, the front has been pushed from Yalu River to the 38th parallel, achieving the goal of maintaining territorial security, and there is no conflict of essential interests between the two sides.

But Stalin hoped that the United States would be deeply involved in the Korean War and let the Soviet Union take the initiative in the hegemony between the United States and the Soviet Union. Therefore, the Soviet Union has always stood on the road of Sino-US armistice negotiations, which has plunged China and the United States into a difficult process of talking while playing.

Volunteers also gradually gave up the form of large-scale corps operations and killed a large number of United Nations effective forces with the tactics of "knocking candy". Moreover, since 1952, the volunteers have carried out a large-scale cold-shot cold-shot movement near the 38th parallel. During the arduous armistice negotiations, the newly-born Volunteer Air Force, with the help of the Soviet Air Force, fought a bitter air battle with the United Nations forces in northern Korea, which was called the "MiG Corridor".

After nearly three years of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, the newly-born Republic has not been dragged down, but has made great progress in all fields of society. Because of the brilliant victory of the Volunteers, the international status of the Republic of China has never been higher, and the Soviet Union has also increased its assistance to China. While safeguarding national sovereignty and integrity, China has gained valuable opportunities for development.

On the contrary, under the fierce attack of China and the Soviet Union, the United Nations troops led by the United States were deeply involved in the Korean War, and their international prestige was greatly affected.

According to the data released by the Associated Press, in less than three years of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, the total number of dead, injured, missing and captured United Nations troops, including the United States, exceeded 6,543,800+0,470. Among them, 54,246 Americans died, 8 177 were missing, 7 140 were captured and 0/03284 were injured, totaling172,847.

According to China's post-war statistics, in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, volunteers were killed 1 15786, wounded 22 1264, missing and captured 29095, accounting for 366 145.

Because of the unprecedented attack on the American army, including the ever-victorious division like the polar bear regiment, the American army had to look at the volunteers with new eyes. The War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, which brought them a huge shadow, also became the "forgotten war" of the United States.

In the Vietnam battlefield more than ten years later, although China didn't give the US military a warning that "the ground troops should not cross the17th degree line", the US military was afraid that China would intervene in the Vietnam battlefield, so the ground troops never crossed the17th degree line, and the US military only conducted a large-scale air raid on North Vietnam. Because of China's great assistance, the United States suffered another tragic defeat in the Vietnamese battlefield.

After the Vietnam War fiasco, the United States actively sought to normalize relations with China, and the Soviet Union finally collapsed under the joint attack of China and the United States.

Therefore, the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea is not just a local war after World War II. It made the United States suffer an unprecedented tragic failure and changed the course of world historical development.

1on March 5, 953, Soviet leader Stalin died, and the Sino-US armistice negotiations immediately achieved great results.

1On July 23, 953, the Korean armistice negotiations ended, and the two-year and nine-month War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea came to an end.

After the war, Clark, commander of the "United Nations Army" and a four-star general of the United States, said with emotion: "I won an unenviable honor: that is, I became the first commander of the United States Army to sign an unsuccessful armistice treaty in history. I feel the pain of disappointment! I think my predecessors, General MacArthur and General Li Qiwei, must feel the same way. "

Peng, commander-in-chief of the Volunteer Army, also said with emotion after the war: "It eloquently proves that the era when western invaders could occupy a country by erecting several cannons on an eastern coast for hundreds of years is gone forever. Today, any imperialist aggression can be defeated by the power of the people. It also eloquently proves that an awakened nation that dares to fight for the glory, independence and security of the motherland is invincible. "
