Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

After the meeting on Wake Island, the US military changed its tactics of slowly attacking behind the South Korean troops, but crossed the South Korean ** team from both sides and quickly advanced by taking advantage of the advantages of the mechanized corps, and the vanguard of the Eighth Army, the main force of the US attack force, was the First Cavalry Division, which was known for more than 200 sides in the United States. (Please search, the novel is better and faster!)

Under MacArthur's orders, the 1st Cavalry Division advanced with a much faster attack than the other friendly forces, aiming directly at Pyongyang, the capital of North Korea.

The equipment of the first cavalry division is too powerful, according to the standard of 200 artillery pieces per artillery division and 200 tanks of tank divisions, this so-called cavalry division is equipped with three artillery divisions and one tank division while realizing mechanization, that is to say, it is not a division at all, but a composite force composed of a mechanized infantry division, three artillery divisions and a tank division, and it is a monster full of steel minions.

The imposing 1st Cavalry Division did not take the remnants of the Korean People's Army into account, they thought that with more than 20,000 tired divisions, they wanted to block the footsteps of the "United **"? It's just a joke, a story from Arabic mythology.

After the KPA retreated from Busan, after a long journey of several hundred kilometers and under the blockade of the US military's ground-air fire network, it not only lost 78 out of 10 soldiers but also lost most of its heavy weapons, and its combat effectiveness was not as good as before.

The DPRK is an agricultural country, and the vast majority of the weapons and equipment needed by the People's Army cannot be produced by itself, but relies on imports from the Soviet Union. With the prolongation of the war, the war losses gradually increased, and the disadvantages of agricultural countries in the war gradually appeared. KPA's armament and ammunition began to run thin.

With huge losses in personnel, a lack of supply of weapons and ammunition, and the lack of training of new recruits, all of them are showing up in an increasingly difficult situation, and the forward units of the US army have shouted the slogan of unconditional surrender of the Korean People's Army.

Under extremely difficult circumstances, the Korean People's Army concentrated most of its forces and used more than 20,000 men to hold Pyongyang. It is hoped that with the help of geographical advantages, it will fight a decisive battle with the US military.

This was almost all the strength that the Korean People's Army could concentrate at that time, and after the defeat from Pusan, the main force of the KPA was reduced to zero. Less than 30,000 people escaped the 38th parallel, and these 30,000 or so people are the only family members of the Korean People's Army.

Take advantage of the existing personnel, take advantage of the geographical advantages of the mountains and rivers, and use every street and barrier. Make good use of every rifle and every bullet. The KPA envisioned inflicting heavy casualties on the enemy in the Pyongyang area to salvage the situation, but it was clear that they were underestimating the strength of the American army.

In order to increase the firepower of the 1st Cavalry Division of the US Army, MacArthur ordered the US Far East Air Force and the Navy's carrier-based fighter wing to ensure that more than 100 bombers supported the 1st Cavalry Division at all times, and to ensure that every inch of Pyongyang's sky was under the control of the US military.

So far. The personnel and technical equipment of the 1st Cavalry Division of the US Army in the front line have reached one mechanized infantry division and three artillery divisions according to the standards of the squadron. One tank division, two bomber aviation divisions (each division was equipped with fifty aircraft when the Volunteer Air Force entered the Korean War) and a parachute regiment.

Looking at the People's Army, there are basically no tanks and planes (consumed in more than three months of operations, and they cannot be replenished later), there are very few artillery, the supply of ammunition is insufficient, and only infantry light weapons can be used.

There is not much difference in the personnel of the offensive and defensive sides, but the technical weapons cannot be compared, and the difference in firepower between the two armies is dozens to hundreds of times, and although the battle is inevitable, it is no longer on the same level.

More than 600 heavy artillery pieces fired a salvo, the explosion points of the shells were as dense as heavy rain, and more than 100 bombers attacked in the sky with heavy aerial bombs and napalm, and the entire Pyongyang area was smashed into a sea of fire.

More than 200 tanks rushed to the front and used vehicle-mounted tank guns to accurately strike at the remaining firing points, and after all the visible firing points were destroyed, the infantry attacked, and finally parachuted regiments into the KPA retreat.

Houses were blown up, fortifications were destroyed, thousands of degrees of napalm turned a single qiē into ashes, and the quiet Pyongyang turned into a scorched earth.

The U.S. military, which had experienced the baptism of World War II, wielded the power of high-tech equipment to the end, and the crushing attack caused by the unequal national strength made the Korean People's Army powerless, and the more than 20,000 veterans who had been retained with great painstaking efforts were once again severely wounded, and Pyongyang could not avoid the fall after trying their best.

Four months after the start of the Korean War, the tide of the war tipped southward, and the North Korean capital of Pyongyang was captured, with the main KPA suffering casualties.

The North Korean government, which was powerless to return to Japan, immediately thought of aid, and thought of finding forces that could help it counter the American military.

Is there such a force? Of course, there are, because behind it there are two giants, one is the Soviet Union, the boss of the socialist camp, and the other is the beautiful China that has just been founded.

Who to turn to for help? Of course, it is the Soviet Union, which has strong national strength, a solid industrial foundation, a strong combat effectiveness of the army tempered in the Great Patriotic War, and a powerful navy and air force deployed in the Far East, and only the Soviet Union can become an opponent of the US military, and only the Soviet Union is qualified to become an opponent of the US military.

The envoy with great hopes approached the Soviet government and earnestly pleaded with Big Brother to send troops to help North Korea and save the people from fire and water.

In the early days of the founding of the People's Army, in order to obtain assistance from the Soviet Union, the DPRK obtained a huge amount of weapons and equipment from the Soviet Union by bartering (9 tons of gold, 4o tons of silver, and 150,000 tons of other ores in exchange for 138 million rubles of weapons and equipment from the Soviet Union).

In March of 50, the DPRK government, which had received tremendous assistance from the Soviet Union, presented its plan to the Soviet High Command.

The confident North Korean government believed that with its current strength, the reunification of the Korean Peninsula would certainly succeed, and this war plan was under the supervision of the Soviet High Command, and it was not until May that the new China around it was notified, and at this time it was only a little more than a month before the start of the war, and the new China was making full preparations to liberate the island of Taiwan.

Hope is beautiful, the reality is also cruel, the big brother of the Soviet Union, who is regarded as a god and has high hopes, does not want to send troops, and they are feeding the wounds of World War II, and they give the advice that since they can't fight, don't fight, and the general trend of North Korea is to set up a government-in-exile, and this government-in-exile is best located in China for the sake of security.

The Soviet narrative is consistent with their actions, the navy and air force deployed in the Far East have not moved, and there has been no increase in the situation of the Korean war, even if it is a warship and an aircraft.

North Korea's heart is cold, completely cold, the backers they rely on do not want to make a move, for the sake of today's plan, only New China is their last hope, but can China send troops?

From the First Opium War in 1840 to the founding of the People's Republic of China in 49, the land of China has experienced countless wars, from the Xinhai Revolution to the warlord melee, from Yuan Shikai's Hongxian Emperor to the Protectorate War, from the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression to the War of Liberation.

The founding of New China gave tens of thousands of Chinese sons and daughters a chance to recuperate, and the war made them taste all the hardships, and the people were extremely war-weary.

Beginning with the Nanchang Uprising on 1 August, the People's Liberation Army (PLA) went through 22 years of arduous armed struggle and finally created a brand-new country, and by the end of 49, the PLA, which had a total strength of more than 5 million, began to remobilize in large numbers.

The veterans whose bodies are covered with gunfire and gunpowder smoke talk about the most every day is what they want to do when they go home, how many acres of land they want to plant, how many chickens and ducks they want to raise, and by the way, veterans who are about 30 years old still have to marry a daughter-in-law and give birth to the next generation.

Seeing that 30 acres of land and a cow, the day of the wife and children hot kang is about to come true, this is the ideal they have been fighting for for many years, but at this time, the neighbor North Korea has a large-scale war, what should they do? How will you choose??? Will it be a fire for North Korea's neighbor?

In 1950, the total industrial output value of the United States accounted for more than half of the total output value of the capitalist world, its gold reserves accounted for 70 percent of the capitalist world, the output of wheat, which symbolizes grain crops, accounted for 30 percent of the capitalist world, and the output of iron and steel reached more than 87 million tons, more than 140 times that of New China.

At the end of World War II, the United States still had 18 aircraft carriers under construction, and the number and total tonnage of its aircraft carriers accounted for 80 percent of the world's aircraft carriers, making it the world's largest in terms of strong industrial production capacity.

All the numbers show that the United States and its military will win in all wars, and what will our new China look like?

New China was a country that had just been built from the ashes, and years of war had stagnated its weak national industry. (To be continued......)
