The hot movie " Changjin Lake " brought the people's eyes back to the Korean battlefield 71 years ago.
is " to resist U.S. aggression and aid Korea, to defend the country." China resolutely sent troops to North Korea. After five arduous battles and the second stage of the defense war, the U.S. imperial army was pushed back from the Yalu River to the "38th line" and won This was the great victory of "Resisting U.S. Aid Korea".
The battle of "Changjin Lake" on the Eastern Front was one of the most difficult battles in the entire war. Volunteer Corps 9th Corps fought fiercely with the US Army's ace Marine First Division and other units in the Changjin Lake area in the ice and snow of minus 40 degrees. Although it failed to wipe out the US army, it also achieved the purpose of the campaign, which was of great significance.
In the "Changjin Lake" battle, there were also my heroes' sons and daughters of Luohe who joined the battlefield. How did they fight?
Luohe is a heroic city. During the War of Resistance Against Japan, the Japanese surrender was accepted here; during the War of Liberation , the Fourth Corps of the Chinese People's Liberation Army was formed here, and General Chen Geng issued the order of to cross the river here. During the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, thousands of Luohe sons and daughters marched to the battlefield, giving up their lives to protect their homes and defending the country. The "special hero" Ge Hongchen sprinkled blood on Ganling, and many heroic Luohe sons and daughters slept on the land of North Korea.
At present, there are two surviving Luohe veterans who belong to the 26th Army of the Ninth Corps of the Chinese People's Volunteers and participated in the "Ice and Snow Changjin Lake" battle.
Zhai Changfa, born in March 1927, is a native of Zhanghuwei Village, Shabei Street, Lucheng District, Luohe City, Henan Province. Joined the army in July 1948, and participated in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea from November 1950 to June 1952. He was the platoon commander of the 3rd Battalion and 9th Company of the 226th Regiment of the 76th Division of the 26th Army of the Chinese People's Volunteers. Retired in December 1952,Now I am farming in my hometown.
Lin Fuan, born in January 1928, is a native of Ganhechen Village, Ganhechen Township, Yuanhui District, Luohe City, Henan Province. Joined the army in October 1948, and participated in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea from November 1950 to June 1951. He was a soldier of the 2nd Battalion, 2nd Company, 233 Regiment, 76th Division, 26th Army of the Chinese People's Volunteer Army. He participated in the second, fourth, and fifth battles. He retired in June 1951. Retired employee of Luohe Tobacco Monopoly Bureau.
From the deeds of the two veterans, it can be seen that Lin Fuan was injured in the fifth battle and then retired in June 1951 due to injuries. Zhai Changfa participated in the second to fifth battles. He returned to China with the 26th Army in June 1952 and retired six months later.
The Ninth Corps of the Chinese People's Volunteers entered the DPRK in November 1950. Song Shilun was the commander and political commissar of the Corps. The Ninth Corps governs three armies of the 20th Army, the 26th Army, and the 27th Army, totaling 150,000 people. In the "Changjin Lake" campaign, the 20th Army and the 27th Army reached the east and west areas of Changjin Lake in concealment respectively, realizing the encirclement of the US forces. The 26th Army is located in the area north of Changjin Lake, far from the battlefield, and is the reserve team for the entire battle.
After the battle of "Nagajin Lake" began on November 27, 1950, due to the severe frostbite of the 9th Corps and the fierce firepower of the US Army, the 20th Army and the 27th Army were still incomplete after fierce fighting Destroy the besieged enemy. The battle lasted until December 5, when the U.S. military began to retreat under the cover of aircraft and tanks, and the 20th and 27th Army were unable to prevent the enemy from escaping. At this time, the commander of the Corps urgently transferred the 26th Army of the Reserve to join the battle.
The situation was urgent. The 26th Army was dispatched and marched during the day. Of course, the U.S. Army also knew what it meant if the 26th Army rushed to its front, so it sent planes to bombard the 26th Army indiscriminately.Stop the 26th Army’s march as much as possible. In addition, due to the lack of airborne tools, the 26th Army went over the mountains and snowed, and the marching speed was not fast.
Even so, the 26th Army went into the battlefield, biting the retreating American army, and driving the American army from Xingnan Port to the sea. In the last scene of the movie "Lake Changjin", countless volunteer soldiers rushed to the beach, looking at the American warships away, cheering for victory. These fighters are the soldiers of the 26th Army, not the army of five thousand miles and talk about the child. The last scene does not show Wu Qianli, and Tan Ziwei is in line with historical facts. The details of this movie are more sophisticated.
The battle of "Changjin Lake" was a pity for the 26th Army. The siege and annihilation did not succeed. The blockade turned into a pursuit, which allowed the enemy to escape. If it is known in advance that the U.S. forces are so difficult to fight, the 26th Army will move to the U.S. retreat route in advance, and the U.S. forces will be completely blocked and wiped out, and there will be no lonely resistance against the enemy by Yang Gensi and the tragedy of the "Ice Sculpture Company".
However, in the subsequent third, fourth, and fifth battles, the 26th Army performed quite well. It fought fiercely and reduced the number of personnel. So in June 1952 The 20th Army and the 27th Army returned to China for rest and reorganization.
The 26th Army originated in Huaye, mainly composed of soldiers from Jiangsu and Shandong. Why are there soldiers from Luohe such as Lin Fuan and Zhai Changfa? It turned out that the predecessor of the 26th Army was Huaye Bazong. In 1948, Bazong participated in the Luoyang Campaign, Wanxi Campaign, and Wandong Campaign in Henan. During this period, the heroic sons and daughters of Luohe, such as Lin Fuan and Zhai Changfa, joined the People's Liberation Army.
The 26th Army moved to the Shandong Peninsula after returning from North Korea. In June 1985, the 26th Army reorganized the group army. In February 2016, the 26th Army of was withdrawn from the Jinan Military Region and transferred to the Army of the Northern Theater Command.In April 2017, the 26th Group Army was deactivated and the new 80th Group Army was activated. This is the only bloodline of the 9th Corps. The designations of the 20th Army and the 27th Army were successively revoked, and the units were merged into the brother forces.
"The beacon is singing heroes, and the green hills are all listening." Tribute to the heroic Chinese People's Volunteers!
