The weather in Qingchuan River

1950 After the Korean War broke out, China resolutely decided to resist US aggression and aid Korea. Countless enthusiastic men responded to the call of the country and joined the volunteers to cross the Yalu River. Swear to the death to resist the enemy's aggression in a foreign land.

Due to the heroic fighting of the volunteers, in the first battle, our army successfully repelled the "United Nations Army" from the Yalu River to the south of the Qingchuan River, shattered the plan of the "United Nations Army" to occupy all Korea before Thanksgiving, and initially stabilized the Korean war situation.

After the second battle, the volunteers immediately cooperated with the Korean People's Army, completely breaking the attempt of the "United Nations Army" to occupy the whole territory of Korea, which was the most strategic victory in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea. Moreover, this victory greatly exceeded Chairman Mao's expectations before the second battle.

Our army pushed the front to the "38th parallel", forcing the "United Nations Army" to change from offensive to defensive, which fundamentally reversed the Korean war situation this time.

At this time, many outsiders don't understand why China people fight so hard, such as Li Qiwei, who just took office at this time.

At this time, in the report submitted by the US intelligence department, it was also asserted that the commander-in-chief of the Volunteers was Lin Biao. Li Qiwei can't understand why China's air force is zero, its tanks are zero, and even its artillery is scattered ... How did they defeat the "United Nations Army" armed like Transformers with crude infantry equipment and "sea tactics"?

China's army is naturally different from the western army, not only tactically, but also spiritually.

In his later years, Zhu Ke, the captain of the Volunteer Army, recalled: "The people in front died, and the people who succeeded them in the back had to rush in. That tactic is quite well organized. Remember every slogan, every position, every command and every signal. That's not disorderly ... "

Who doesn't want planes and cannons in a war? Volunteers also want to, but the reality is that they don't, and they still have to rely on themselves.

Fight with your own flesh and blood! Knock down the powers and bully the weak countries! Unwilling to humiliate the volunteers! Backward is to be beaten, but backward China can never stand being beaten!

This is the common aspiration of the officers and men of the Volunteers. Based on this, our army can fight bravely and win the final victory.

1950 65438+February 3 1, just after dark, many American soldiers got into their sleeping bags, and the cold weather made people pay more attention. No American found volunteers observing their actions in a mine not far away.

Commander-in-chief Peng has stopped looking at the map at this moment. He took off his glasses thoughtfully and went over the battle plan in his mind again. A moment later, he gave the order to attack on all fronts.

This is by far the largest and most violent artillery bombardment of the Korean Volunteers. The battlefield rumbled and the earth trembled.

At this time, on this cold night, the officers and men of the Volunteers were crouching in the heavy snow and waiting.

Not long ago, every soldier got a 9-foot-long white cloth to wrap himself in the battle. Moreover, a small piece of white cloth was sewn into each soldier's pocket, with his name, place of origin, age, unit and blood type written on it, so as to ensure that after he died in battle, the people who took you in know your last name and can accurately tell your family the news of your death.

Everyone is ready to die, and the awareness of the United Nations Army in this respect is naturally not as good as that of China people. Volunteer soldiers in the war environment have surpassed the secular line of life and death in the minds of ordinary people.

The "United Nations Army" built barbed wire in Jiang Nanan and poured water on the river bank, which was frozen to a foot thick. They think that unless volunteers can fly, they will never be able to break through here.

China people can't fly, of course, so Peng prepared a cannon for 20 minutes to entertain them.

General Wang Yang looked at the 40 opposite bunkers and ordered the 1 16 division to aim each cannon at a bunker. As soon as the gunfire started, it was destroyed immediately.

More than 20 minutes ago, the deminers set off with minesweepers. They braved the bullets on the other side and held long minesweepers to clear mines between life and death.

They only have 20 minutes. At that time, no matter whether the mines on the river beach have been blown up or not, the big troops behind them will not hesitate to rush forward and issue thousands of guns.

Twenty minutes later, the signal flare representing the charge took off, and the soldiers rushed out of the snow one by one and rushed into the Linjin River in desperation.

Many people failed to stand up from the snow, and the soldiers who rushed out were frozen by the cold snow and had almost no thinking ability. They only have one thought left now, that is, to rush to the levee and occupy the enemy's position while they can still move.

The ice on the river is very thick, but don't worry about falling. However, the enemy's artillery shells were dense, and the soldiers who were shot were constantly washed away by the river, so the commander braved the enemy's firepower and stood in the waist-deep ice cave, pushing the soldiers who fell into the ice water one by one.

13 minutes after the volunteers launched the charge, Wang Yang's 1 16 division took the lead in breaking through the Linjin River defense line.

The news immediately inspired the soldiers who were fighting, and everyone was full of sparks of hope. The instructor stood on the ice embankment and rushed to the soldiers who were still charging: "Can't stop! Stop and you're dead! Brothers, run, run, run! I stopped sweating when I ran! "

Therefore, the soldiers crossing the Linjiang River continued to run. Soldiers who failed to cross the line of fire lay motionless on the ice, watching their blood flow down from their bodies and then turned into frozen blood strips.

This day is the New Year's Day of 195 1, which is a New Year's Day holiday for China people, but every second, soldiers die on the Linjin River.

The 38th Army, 39th Army, 40th Army and 50th Army broke through the Linjin River in only 1 hour. The 42 nd and 66 th armies on the left are also progressing smoothly.

Seeing that all 380,000 volunteers broke through the defense lines of the United Nations Army, the South Korean Army fled without hesitation and directly snatched 65,438+10,000 United Nations troops from Seoul. At present, Li Qiwei is facing the crisis of being deeply surrounded by the right-wing allied forces of China and North Korea.

So, on the fourth day of the fierce battle, the radio interception department of the Volunteer Command intercepted a confidential telegram, and the message inside was more reasonable than expected: "Li Qiwei is not defending Seoul, but fleeing with the US military!"

How can we just forget it? Peng immediately ordered the 39th, 50th and 1 armies of the Korean People's Army to attack Seoul.

Ceng Zesheng, commander of the 50th Army and general of the 60th Army of the Kuomintang Army. He was completely humiliated in the first two battles. He and his officers and men urgently need to "turn over" and avenge the past.

In the mood of the 50th Army, a hapless British tank column broke into their artillery array. With this battle, the 50th Army bravely destroyed the heavy tank battalion of the 29th British Royal Brigade, which went down in military history.

At this time, in Viteri, 50 troops heading for Seoul just defeated the snipers of a battalion of American troops. Except for the dead and wounded, all the movable American troops in this battalion began to flee, leaving a brother army fighting side by side with them.

Of course, the 50 th Army could not spare the rest, and immediately surrounded the abandoned enemy for a while, only to find that it was originally British!

The hapless British army seems to have come to pay the debts of its predecessors who once ran across the land of China. They suffered a crushing defeat on the Korean battlefield and never won once.

Selfish Americans either ask them to cover the retreat of American troops as scapegoats or ask them to play forward as cannon fodder.

To tell the truth, the British army was not important on the battlefield at that time, but the 29th Brigade of the British army was to cover Li Qiwei's escape, and the result was stopped by the 50th Army.

Although most of the British troops fled quickly under the cover of tanks and planes, there was still a unit that could never return to the British army-the British ace armored unit. The Royal Heavy Tank Battalion of the 29th Brigade was entangled by the 50th Army!

The American army does not take the British army seriously, and the British army itself cares about its compatriots. So 1000 British soldiers turned back desperately to rescue the heavy tank battalion, but they were beaten everywhere. Seeing that the American army is running farther and farther, if we don't take the main force away, we have to bring it in. The officers and men of the 29th Brigade began to draw crosses on their chests, praying for the brothers in the tank battalion, and then slipped away.

The British tank battalion was isolated, and to make matters worse, in the evening, the battle of 50 troops surrounding the royal heavy tank battalion began.

At this time, the British army could not run at all. On the mountain road, China soldiers rushed to a 50-ton British tank with explosives. Some soldiers even vomited blood because they were too close to the explosion point.

A soldier named Li Shilu rushed to the enemy with an explosive charge, directly killing a 50-ton "100 Captain" tank, but he was also stunned by the explosion.

After Li Shilu woke up, he immediately rushed to a giant fire-breathing tank and blew the monster everywhere. Not to mention, the explosion made me dizzy. When Li Shilu woke up for the second time, he still struggled to climb over and blew up the third tank full of gasoline.

Volunteers don't have tanks, artillery and planes, but rely on flesh and blood. Overnight, 3 1 tank of the Royal Heavy Tank Battalion was killed by the most primitive means of the 50 th Army!

Being a man is most afraid of sorrow, so Ceng Zesheng is very cautious. He confessed to Hu Baoyu: "You shot me with your camera. If they dare to fake, I will kill them! "

Simple, this is true, and the leaders of the 50 th Army are relieved. The next fierce battle in the Han River, in the rain of bullets all over the sky, the morale of the 50 th Army was high, and it persisted in the main position of mountain-repairing for 7 days. In the hasty closure, it beat the 25th Division of the US Army and defeated the Turkish brigade again.

In the third battle, the 50th Army has been hitting near Shui Yuan, which is one of the farthest units of the Volunteers in North Korea.

After the 50th Army caused great losses to the US military, Ceng Zesheng was ordered to lead his troops out of Xiushan and return to the north of the Han River.

When he came to Zhisi, covered in smoke, to resume his life, Peng held the hand of the former Kuomintang lieutenant general tightly: "Fifty troops played well, you commanded well, and I will make up for it for you. When Soviet weapons came, give priority to your fifty troops!"

Any general can't help but be moved when he hears this. When Ceng Zesheng heard this, his tears almost fell. He spent 20 years in the Kuomintang army. As a senior officer of the Yunnan Army, he and his subordinates were discriminated against and looked down upon by the Chiang Kai-shek Central Group. Don't say such a good thing as replacing soldiers with weapons. Chiang Kai-shek tried to kill his Yunnan army several times.

Ceng Zesheng, with tears in his eyes, said excitedly, "We tried our best to finally raise our heads in front of our brothers!"

Peng was emotional when he heard this sentence: "What is this? Is it because the 50 th Army is a reorganized unit of the Kuomintang? I, Peng, like you, am also a miscellaneous brand of the old army. Peng never raised you as a stepmother. Go back and tell your officers and men that Peng Huaide bowed to the comrades of the 50 th Army! "

Later, Peng, commander-in-chief of the Volunteer Army, really bowed to the commander in front of so many former Kuomintang soldiers in the 50 th Army.

Ceng Zesheng and his brothers-in-law were moved to tears. They also gave Peng a serious military salute.

1955, Ceng Zesheng was in Huairentang with the Old Red Army and the Old Eighth Road. They stood together and accepted the titles of Mao Zedong and Zhou Enlai with honor. Ceng Zesheng himself is one of the China People's Liberation Army 177 lieutenants.

Before Yunshan, General Wang Yang was against Bai Shanye. It was these two handsome Chinese and Korean men who fought face to face along the Imjin River.

65438+February 3 1, near the evening, the South Korean Army 116 Volunteer Division in front of the division suddenly launched a flood attack after making intense fire preparations.

In the loud sound of bugles and gongs and drums, the "mass tactics" of the volunteers rushed across the Linjin River, which was frozen by shells, and advanced to the position of 1 division.

Wang Yang teachers, of course, will not take tens of thousands of soldiers' lives to fight the enemy foolishly, and they should have strategies and tactics in the battle.

Before the attack, he sent several plainclothes teams to mingle with the refugees and interspersed near the positions of the South Korean army. After the fighting started, they immediately assisted the main force and launched an attack on the position of the South Korean army. The South Korean Army 1 Division Right Wing 12 Regiment was caught off guard and could not resist, and was quickly defeated.

When Bai Shanye was later asked about this matter, he recalled: "The emergency reports on the front line came one after another. Finally, I even organized the engineers and signalmen of the division headquarters and put them on the front line.

When I heard that the 1 1 regiment on the left was still intact and the two regiments on the right had little hope, my eyes turned black and I couldn't help asking myself,' Is my 1 division finished like this?' Oversight ordered our division to retreat across the board, and I was always in a trance.

My troops have never been beaten so badly since the war began. My self-esteem is almost on the verge of collapse. I feel extremely collapsed and even have no strength to retreat. After getting in touch with the subordinate units, I hung up the phone and began to prepare to issue operational orders again.

When the * * * army is about to attack HQ, I don't want to retreat, but I think I should live and die with HQ * *. At this time, Captain Mayer of the US military advisory group ran in, picked me up without saying anything, put me in the jeep, and drove quickly to the highway, which saved my life in humiliation. "

Since Chinese people's Volunteer Army crossed the Yalu River into the Korean War on October 25th, 65438, our army has launched the first, second and third campaigns in just over two months. And successfully drove the "United Nations Army" to the south of the "38th parallel".

These three battles were dominated by the 39th Army 1 16 Division. Especially in the third battle, General Wang Yang commanded 1 16 Division to break through the Linjin River, which later became a typical example of special study in the class of Nanjing Military Academy.

General Chen Geng, then acting commander of the Volunteers, summarized the battle plan of breaking through the Linjin River as "three dangers and three wonders" for the students to discuss. Finally, Marshal Liu Bocheng, president of the hospital, said in his comments that the breakthrough choice and the whole operational deployment of this example should be scored 5 points, that is, full marks, which is the most glorious page in Wang Yang's military career.

After this war, the Chinese and North Korean troops directly crossed the 38th parallel and occupied Seoul, and advanced to the 37th parallel, which caused great political influence in the world.
