"The Chinese army is here, and our disaster has come."
US Army General Matthew Bunk Liqiwei once described the war with China in this way, calling it a disaster.

MacArthurGeneral also said that is a powerful opponent that the US military has never encountered before .
Since modern times, there have been countless smoke from the land of China. Our opponents have never been weak, but powerful military powers.
In the face of invasion, we rose up and resisted, won one war after another, demonstrating the will of the country.
So, which two battles made American generals give such high evaluations that other countries dare not easily provoke China?
Resist U.S. aggression and aid Korea
950 On the Korean battlefield, Chinese volunteer army fought bravely to teach the US army that came to invade.
When the Korean War first broke out, it was just a civil war between the two regimes in the north and south of the Korean Peninsula . Until Western capitalist countries intervened, the " United Nations Army " represented by the United States went to the Korean battlefield.
MacArthur was appointed commander of the Far East Army, helping the South Korean army start counterattack.
At this time, the US army led by MacArthur became the focus of world attention, but they did not expect that the participation of the Chinese volunteer army made this war the coldest winter in their memory.

China was not prepared to participate in the war at the beginning. It was just founded and was at a time when it should rest and keep a low profile. Participating rashly is very unfavorable for the national economic construction.
However, the US military repeatedly invaded our northeastern border and felt that China did not dare to participate in the war at all. They even began to send planes to bomb the Dandong region. Such behavior is really too much and can be regarded as an invasion of our country's sovereignty. If we do not intervene in the Korean War, it will be a big trouble when the US military crosses the 38th parallel and the US military appears on the northeastern border of China.
beat North Korea. Who will be the next target?
In order to avoid the great threat to the Chinese people's national security, in a sense, we have no choice. The Chinese government immediately decided to send troops to North Korea to fight against the United Nations army.
In October 11950, the Chinese Volunteer Army officially joined the war .
At first, the US military thought that only a small number of Chinese people participated in the battle, but when the commanding generals received the news that they were blocked by well-trained regular troops, they were stunned. As soon as the charge sounded, Chinese soldiers rushed over with tsunami. The Chinese army used interspersive tactics that the US military had never seen before, and defeated the US military.
The situation began to reverse, but this beautiful counterattack was exchanged for the Chinese volunteers climbing ice and lying on the battlefield and lying on the snow for a lifetime.
Because there is too big gap between us and the United States in terms of economic strength and weapons and equipment.
Economicly, the United States was the world's number one power at that time, and its economic strength was the support behind the war. We had just been in a year of the founding of the People's Republic of China and were clearly at a disadvantage.
In terms of weapons and equipment, the US military has advanced equipment and excellent air force, and has long been mechanized. Our Volunteer Army only has small weapons and light equipment to use. Not to mention aircraft and cannons, even transportation equipment is lacking.
The treatment of American soldiers is amazingly good. Not to mention hungry, they can eat canned food and drink coffee. The clothes are neat and comfortable, and there are cotton coats when it is cold and there are sleeping bags at night. It is not an exaggeration to say that this treatment is to go out for camping.
You can still drink coffee when fighting on the battlefield. This is something that our Chinese volunteers dare not even think about.
Sometimes the soldiers in our army can only eat frozen potatoes like stones, without decent cotton coats, and the soldiers starve and froze while fighting on the battlefield.
During the day, you have to avoid reconnaissance aircraft and can only operate at night. The winter in the north is extremely cold. Under the extreme conditions of minus 40 degrees , if you are not careful, you will freeze to death on the battlefield. More than 160 volunteers were frozen into ice sculptures.
With such a harsh combat environment, how did the Chinese army win? This is also the question in the minds of countless American soldiers. The ability to win under such conditions depends entirely on the steely will and flexible combat mind of the Chinese Volunteer Army.
Since the weapons and equipment are not good, then we should start with the strategy of military strategy and attack them unpredictably. The Chinese volunteer army often avoided very conspicuous roads. adopted interlude tactics and used mountains and woods to capture shortcuts, thus going deep behind enemy lines and launching a quick attack.
We have no advantage in frontal combat during the day, so we will fight at night, conduct raids and guerrilla attacks. The transportation equipment is not as good as the US military, so the volunteers use all available resources and means to transport supplies.
This unpredictable tactic is the Chinese army's unique ability, and it always makes the enemy confused.
The soldiers of the US military even began to feel fear of the Chinese soldiers on the battlefield. In other battlefields before this, they were full of anger and excitement.
In this way, the volunteer army forced the "United Nations Army" composed of 6 countries to retreat south of the 38th parallel.
Only in late November, the United Nations army collapsed across the board, and
"Xiaomi plus rifle" still broke the myth of unbeaten by the US military, all due to the extremely high fighting spirit and tenacious combat awareness of the Chinese volunteers.
The outstanding performance of the Chinese army in the Korean War made the US army realize that they launched a wrong war.
On July 27, 1953, the " Korean Armistice Agreement " was officially signed.
The US military can only go home in shame. For most of them, the Korean War was their lifelong nightmare.
After returning to the United States, most of these soldiers were unwilling to mention this tragic war. It was the coldest winter in their memory, and they encountered the most powerful enemy in this winter.
And they think that those who have not participated in this battle cannot understand what a painful experience it was, like an endless nightmare.
The US military must have regretted the previous behavior of crossing the Chinese border, and regretted that they had provoked people they shouldn't have provoked.
And the attitude of our Chinese soldiers is consistent, that is, if anyone dares to invade us, then see you on the battlefield.
Under the experience of several wars, this concept has long been deeply engraved in the hearts of every Chinese.
This ideological confrontation and competitive battle of national will make the people of the world dare not ignore Chinese soldiers and make the world dare not despise the Chinese nation.
The victory of the Korean War made China a military power that should be taken seriously. Western countries have changed their past attitude towards Chinese, and many foreigners even began to learn Chinese.
Kindness does not mean weakness, this war has exerted the momentum of New China. We let the people of the world see that the People's Republic of China has really stood up.
If the Korean War promoted the prestige of China to the whole world, then the self-defense counterattack against Vietnam further demonstrates the eternal and unchanging historical creed of " who violates our Chinese will be punished even if they are far away."
Vietnam Self-Defense Counterattack
In the spring of 1979, Chinese soldiers set foot on Vietnam for the second time. The last time was aid and this time was a counterattack.
did not last for 20 years like the last Vietnam Civil War. This time, we only used 9 days .
Since the last Vietnam War defeated the United States, Vietnam's ambitions have begun to expand, and it has actually called itself " the third military power in the world ".
not only extinguishes China on a large scale in China, but also makes sovereignty claims on some areas of China's Vietnam border, claiming that the Paracel Islands are their territory.
Vietnam's behavior is truly aware of his kindness and does not seek repaid. Not only does he provoke everywhere, he also provoked an armed conflict between on the Sino-Vietnam border. This is a naked invasion.
The Chinese government officially stated that Vietnam's actions have threatened China's border security, and that this invasion of other countries is extremely unfavorable to the stability of Southeast Asian regions. China warns them to stop immediately, otherwise they will not tolerate it.
The reason why Vietnam dares to be so arrogant is because it has the support of the Soviet Union behind it.
In 1978, the Soviet Union and Vietnam signed the " Soviet-Vietnam Friendship and Cooperation Treaty ", which contained certain military aid.
Behind him, he has the support of his elder brother, which makes Vietnam feel that he has the ability to do whatever he wants in Southeast Asia, and even ignores China's warnings. It turns out that it is just a beautiful dream made by the Vietnamese authorities.
China can never tolerate Vietnam's various provocative behaviors, and the Chinese military has long been on guard.
On February 17, 1979, China " People's Daily " published an interview note titled "It is tolerant, but who is intolerable - Report from the Sino-Vietnam Border" .
The People's Daily used such a tone to announce to the whole world that China could no longer bear Vietnam's various actions of cross-border.
The publication of this article also kicked off the self-defense counterattack against Vietnam .
On the same day, the long-bearing Chinese border defense forces quickly launched a strike from the border areas of Guangxi and Yunnan, and advanced dozens of kilometers to Vietnam, launching shattered attacks on its various military strongholds.
Because I have participated in battles on the Vietnam battlefield, I am very familiar with the terrain conditions there.
Hundreds of thousands of troops entered Vietnam in a mighty manner. Within a few days, they conquered Gaoping , Tongdeng on the eastern front, and Laojie and Gantang on the western front. The troops advanced 50 kilometers.
Vietnamese army fought to the death, gathered all forces across the country, and together with local troops and militias participated in the battle. Various tactical shifts were staged, and the main force and local organizations cooperated with each other.
The local troops fought desperately, and Vietnam was located in a tropical area and the combat environment was very difficult. Our soldiers were not adapted, causing certain casualties to the troops.
However, due to insufficient firepower and improper tactic use, Vietnam could not resist the pace of the Chinese army's offensive, and there was no difficulty in defeating the will of Chinese soldiers.
In less than ten days, many important strategic locations have fallen.
Since February 27, 1979, the Chinese army has been unstoppable and has conquered more than 20 Vietnamese towns and towns. The result of Vietnam's failure has long been doomed. After completing the previously arranged combat missions, announced the withdrawal of the Chinese army on on March 5.
did not take any further action because we did not intend to occupy Vietnam. This time we sent troops to teach Vietnam a lesson in its arrogant behavior.
Our army retreated and cleared the goods while collecting them, and at the same time, they also received a large amount of strategic materials that were supported to Vietnam.

The Chinese soldiers who set foot on Vietnam again don’t know what they would feel. The countries they helped in the past are now disturbing the border. Vietnam’s actions undoubtedly make the Chinese feel heartbroken.
Since they know their kindness and do not seek repaid, there is no need for us to show mercy.
Along the way the Chinese army retreated, only a few troops were attacked by Vietnamese local troops and militia organizations. Most Vietnamese troops dared not fight with China again. We are afraid of Vietnam.
Until on html December 16, all Chinese border defense forces have withdrawn from their homeland, and the war has come to an end.
In less than a month, the Chinese army quickly sent troops and quickly ended the battle, defended the national dignity with its strength, and expressed its opinion to the world: If the Vietnamese authorities still have armed provocations and aggression against China, China reserves the right to continue to fight back against by self-defense.
The Chinese army won again. Unlike the Korean battlefield, this is a battle that everyone knows will definitely win.
This 29-day war once again proved China's ability to the world.
We are not a warlike country, but a military force of justice, a great country with the spirit of humanitarian , and a strong military power .
Facts have proved that only the strong will be respected.
In the Korean War, the United States saw China's military strength. In this self-defense counterattack against Vietnam, the United States began to tilt towards China, and the triangular relationship between China, the United States and the Soviet Union began to show a situation that was unfavorable to the Soviet Union.
Self-improvement
Whether it is the Korean War or the self-defense counterattack against Vietnam, China's attitude has always been clear: We do not cause trouble, but we are absolutely not afraid of trouble.
We use our strength to prove that the Chinese people absolutely count, and no country dares to launch a war against China directly.
Decades ago, we did not have strong military power, and we were short of equipment and supplies, but we could still fear a strong military country. It depends on the will of Chinese soldiers and our fighting spirit of not fearing power or sacrifice.
Now, we are one of the best military powers in the world, and no country dares to launch an invasion of China.
Because they know that China is a powerful military power, and we have demonstrated the style of a great power in repeated wars.
The wheel of history rolls forward, our country is becoming increasingly strong, and while living and working in peace and contentment, we cannot forget the passionate blood that generations of ancestors have scattered on this land.
The national spirit of indomitable and hard struggle should be inherited by our descendants.
The country has strength and the people have confidence.
May the country prosper and the people be healthy and safe, and the mountains and rivers will be safe from now on.
