In the movie "The Gathering", there is a section during the Korean War in which Guzidi and the commander of the artillery regiment reconnoitered the bridge section of the assembly area of the Us-Rok coalition army, which occurred in Hengcheng County, North Korea. The real situation of this great war is ten thousand times more exciting than the movie. This battle scared the US army out of its guts, and the ROK army completely lost its soul!
In February 1951, Deng Yue, commander of the 118th Division of the 40th Army of the Volunteer Army, was ordered to lead troops to surround and annihilate the Ace Eighth and Fifth Divisions of the Rok National Defense Forces. Unfortunately, for The Hundred Battles General Deng Yue, it was only two meals to make a meal! And General Deng also had the audacity to plan a surprise attack tactic!
On February 10, the 352nd Regiment of the 118th Division, with three thousand men, overwhelmed all the enemy's domineering spirit, and one regiment penetrated deep into the enemy's hinterland alone, and this little force actually started a roundabout battle! To say that this 352 regiment does have this guts, why? Because this unit is not an ordinary unit, it is all the people and horses of the old Eighth Road regiment in Shandong, which is the trump card that kills the Japanese army!
As a result, as soon as he came into contact with the Korean army, he immediately exploded the power of the first regiment of the People's Liberation Army! Thirty minutes to tear open a large hole in the ROK defense line, and then 25 kilometers of forced marching, along the way do not look at whether it is the US army or the ROK army, see who to fight, and are not allowed to surrender, because there is no time to take care of the prisoners, the result is that the ROK troops along the way lined up against the roadside, watching this volunteer army continue to sweep across the road!
After fighting until the three forks, I finally encountered hard stubble, and a reinforcement battalion of the US army blocked the intersection! At the same time, the US army also had an artillery battalion that rushed to the three forks for reinforcements. Time is not waiting, the 352nd Regiment did not think too much at all, directly the whole regiment on the bayonet, a grenade plus a stab, the entire two companies of American troops all saw God!
In order to escape, the remnants of the US army and the ROK army also went out, put on the bayonet to launch a counterattack against the volunteer army, because the two sides were in a scuffle, the US military plane in the sky did not dare to drop bombs, called the ground at the radio, let the US and ROK troops break away from the volunteer army, but if they broke away, they could not escape, did not break away, and the plane could not help, so they repeatedly tossed, and even waited for the arrival of the large troops of the volunteer army!
The whole battle began at 17:00 on the eleventh, a whole day and a night of bloody fighting, and the next day at fifteen o'clock in the afternoon, the battlefield was quiet! The most ace of the ROK Army, the Eighth Division, the U.S. Second Division Reinforcement Battalion, has ceased to exist, totaling more than 12,000 people, all of whom have been annihilated! The escaped U.S. troops constantly complained to their superiors about the "brutality" and "madness" of this volunteer unit.
In fact, the defeat of the US and ROK troops at the hands of the Forty Army should be honored, which is the prestige of the "Storm" unit in the entire PLA army, and the war has always been a lightning bolt! If the volunteer army's mechanization ability was strong at that time, with tanks and armored vehicles, the US and South Korean troops estimated that the losses would be greater! The history of the US war called the volunteer army's way of playing like a madman! Incomprehensible, chilling!
