On October 25, 1950, the Chinese People's Volunteer Army crossed the Yalu River and launched a difficult and great war to resist U.S. aggression and aid Korea.
In this completely unequal war, Chinese Volunteer Army uses inferior weapons and equipment and stretched logistics supplies, relying on fearless heroism, and finally let the United Nations Army , led by the United States, sign a ceasefire, fight in one , boost national prestige!
The performance of the Chinese Volunteer Army also conquered these invaders. The commander-in-chief of the United Nations Army MacArthur later said with lingering fear: "Who wants to fight with China, then his mind must be abnormal!"
For so many years, the outside world's evaluation of the Chinese Volunteer Army has generally been obtained from American officers and soldiers. So, how did the South Korean army evaluate the Chinese Volunteer Army?
In fact, in Korean War , the one who can compete with our army and the North Korean army is the largest number of troops except the United States, with as many as 600,000 people.
When the South Korean army fought against our army, the entire division and the whole army were basically annihilated by our army. Therefore, the South Korean army was afraid of our army, so in the late stage of Resisting U.S. aggression and aiding Korea, the officers and soldiers of the South Korean army also said when cursing each other: "Let you meet the Chinese volunteer army when you go out!"
There is an important general in South Korea named Bai Shanye . Born in 1920 in North Korea. After the Japanese invaded North Korea, he came to Northeast my country and entered the puppet Manchukuo Officer School to study. Later, he went to Japan to further his studies. After completing his studies, he returned to South Korea and became a traitor and scum of North Korea.
After the outbreak of the Korean War, Bai Shanye was one of the four division commanders on the front line of the South Korean army. He was later promoted to commander of the First Army, commander of the Second Corps, chief of the Army Staff, and promoted to general of the army.
However, in the competition between the Chinese Volunteer Army, Bai Shanye's combat effectiveness was completely inconspicuous. He suffered repeated defeats, which also allowed him to see the huge gap between the South Korean army and the Chinese Volunteer Army. More than 0 years later, in his memoirs, Bai Shanye summarized the three characteristics of the Chinese Volunteer Army in his memoirs.
first, the troops' operations are highly concealed.
First of all, the Chinese volunteer army entered North Korea secretly, and Bai Shanye, as the main general of the South Korean army, did not know at all. It was not until later that he learned from a prisoner of war in North Korea that the Chinese volunteer army had entered North Korea after the first battle. For this reason, he went to tell the US military specifically, but the Americans did not believe it at all.
From this point, we can see that although the intelligence system of the US military is very powerful, they have not found the time and place of our army entering North Korea.
The reason why our army can do this is mainly because the troops marched highly concealedly and lie down at night. Most of them marched at night, and they hide in the mountains and forests during the day or at the homes of the Korean people. There is no lighting method at night, and no ceremony was held after entering the court, even the people don’t know. How could the US military know about the marching method like
?
Bai Shanye also recalled a detail, saying that the Chinese volunteer army attaches great importance to concealment, and even the tea jar that drinks water all wipes the bright white flour green.
Second, flexible and mobile strategies.
Chinese Volunteers often concentrate their superior forces and annihilate the enemy troops one by one, but they often use troops in dispersed and small groups fight guerrilla harassment wars in multiple directions. Moreover, they often maintain a good attack formation during combat, echoing front and back, and complementing each other, so that their opponents have no loopholes to take advantage of.
It is particularly worth mentioning that the Chinese volunteer army has super mobile power. They do not rely on modern automobile transport. They mainly rely on their legs, but often run faster than cars.
In the battle of encirclement and annihilation, the Chinese volunteer army paid great attention to division and siege, and might emerge from somewhere, and had a high degree of discipline. Once the enemy was surrounded and chased and annihilated, they would rush into the opponent's camp with bayonets. In this way, the opponent's firepower advantage could not be exerted, so as not to accidentally hurt one's own people.
Third, the fighting spirit is very strong.
Bai Shanye once saw with his own eyes that the entire Chinese volunteer army camp lurked in the snow, lying for a whole day, and some even refused to retreat even if they were frozen to death.
Some troops, because the logistics supply cannot keep up and there is no water, they eat snow and fried noodles.
Some volunteer army officers and soldiers were red in the battle. Some had only one arm left and bite them with their teeth. Some of them had both legs broken, and they still held several grenades and died with the other party.
In some battles, the willpower of the armies on both sides was almost at the extreme of collapse, but I have never seen the Chinese volunteers retreat first, and some companies were even exhausted, and no one retreated.
Therefore, in Bai Shanye's view, the fighting spirit of the Chinese Volunteer Army is very strong, as if everyone is "superman", which is something that no country's army can compare with.
Bai Shanye's evaluations are still very accurate. The Chinese volunteer army has indeed won this difficult and great war with such a high degree of discipline and strong spiritual will, and with the extremely unequal resources of both sides!
