As Wu Xinquan said, Americans are not superhuman powers. On the contrary, because of the misjudgment in the early stage, the ability of volunteers was underestimated and caught off guard. They have advanced to the Yalu River and were soon repelled. The US military paid a heavy price for its arrogance here.
Wu Xinquan, who believed in evil and dared to fight, led the army and acted as a pioneer. Every time we fight against the elite troops of the United States, in the early stage, the generals of the United States are still very conceited and look at the volunteers with contempt. However, Wu Xinquan soon made them pay a heavy price for their naivety.
Wu Xinquan, always at the front, led the 39th Army and won many battles. However, the 39th Army won four firsts, which was a tough battle. This is an absolute honor.
These four firsts are from the first election to the fourth election, and each election can win the first place and give play to the prestige of the volunteers.
The first unit to defeat the first division of American cavalry
After the U.S. military decided to leave South Korea, it dispatched a large number of elite troops with an unyielding attitude, including the First Cavalry Division with the title of Founding Father. This army established during the War of Independence was also sent to North Korea.
After arriving in North Korea, he was on a roll, acting as a pioneer all the way, attacking the city and plundering the land, and his beautiful achievements were one after another. MacArthur also relied on this record to believe that he could go home for the holidays, but the brave won't meet the narrow road. The 39th Army led by Wu Xinquan used to be a pioneer, and this time he entered North Korea with great hope.
The first encounter after entering Korea was in Yunshan, the capital of Yunshan County, which was originally the first division of South Korea, but MacArthur realized that Yunshan's strategic position could not be lost, and because of its strategic position, the volunteers had to win it, and the two sides inevitably met here.
Interestingly, neither side knows each other. The American army thought it was a North Korean army, while the volunteers thought it was a South Korean army. It was not until the end of the battle that the other side was a volunteer army, and the volunteers discovered that the other side was an American army. However, the big event is over.
After two days and two nights of fierce fighting with the American army, the American army was wiped out, with more than 800 casualties/kloc-0, and the myth that the so-called first cavalry division was unbeaten was shattered. This battle is called the Battle of Yunshan. Later, the Japanese Ground Self-Defense Force Cadre School also listed the Battle of Yunshan as a model war case and included it in the book Introduction to Operational Theory.
Counterattack Pyongyang's first army
After the success of the first battle, the volunteers pursued the victory and pushed south. Wu Xinquan commanded troops to advance smoothly all the way to the gates of Pyongyang. In the face of major setbacks, the U.S. military, which has not yet responded, cannot organize effective resistance.
So, Wu Xinquan seized the fighter plane, put on airs, and commanded the 1 16 division to attack Pyongyang, and the US troops had to retreat again. Volunteers successfully recovered Pyongyang and never lost.
The first army counterattacked Seoul and occupied the presidential palace.
With the victory of the first and second battles, the volunteers' morale was high, and they wanted to expel the American troops from the country in line with the goal of a quick victory, so they took the opportunity to launch the third battle with the goal of capturing Seoul, and Wu Xinquan and his troops once again became the protagonists.
All the way forward, the wind smoothly advanced to Seoul, and the completely disintegrated American army still did not respond. Under the onslaught of volunteers, Seoul was successfully conquered, and Wu Xinquan led the troops to occupy the presidential palace. This is as inspiring to volunteers as the first great victory, because victory is in sight.
Captured the most American troops alive.
After a series of failures, the us military has calmed down and is not arrogant. In order to reverse the defeat, send more troops, replenish equipment and supplies, and wait for an opportunity to counterattack. On the contrary, volunteers are nothing but high morale.
The supply line was too long, and the shortcomings of weapons and equipment became more and more obvious, making the mistake of underestimating the enemy and finally falling into a confrontation. However, in the face of the menacing American army, the army led by Wu Xinquan still won many victories. He commanded 1 17 division to annihilate more than 2,500 people at one time and captured more than 800 American troops, setting a record for the largest number of American soldiers captured alive by volunteers in a battle.
After the Korean War, Wu Xinquan was awarded the rank of Lieutenant General.
