According to battalion commander Yao Yurong, a country straddling Europe and Asia, Our army fought with the us army, the South Korean army, and the Turkish army, and the Turkish army fought, and the Turkish army had the strongest combat effectiveness.
But since it was the most effective unit, why was it annihilated by the volunteers so completely on the battlefield? And how did the elite division of 5,000 people become a joke in the Korean War? To understand some of the issues mentioned above, it's important to tease out the timeline.
The Korean War took place on June 25, 1950, leading to the outbreak of this war, and the hidden trigger was the division of the 38th Line, and the people of North and South Korea wanted to unify the Korean Peninsula, so the war broke out.
In the beginning, this is just a seemingly ordinary, but in fact, hidden killing machine in the island infighting, but things often come suddenly.
In mid-August 1950, the North Korean army captured nearly 90% of South Korea, and when it heard this news, the United States was even more unhappy, so it stepped up the implementation of the Un Security Council resolution on support of South Korea adopted as early as July, and sent a United Nations army of 15 countries led by the United States to land in Inchon, South Korea, to support South Korea, of which the Turkish army was one of them.
Why is this Turkish brigade called a joke, behind this is indispensable to the hype of Western media public opinion, the Turkish boy is obviously only in his twenties, the media in order to boost the morale of the army, hard to build a wild beard, each with a long Turkish machete, with a strong exotic style, this is obviously open eyes and blind talk.
But at that time, the United Nations army was composed of troops sent by many countries, it was chaotic and chaotic, and no one knew anyone, so the Turkish name was passed on.
In addition, in the first battle after the Turkish landing, because the South Korean army was also fighting on the front line, it was all a unified Asian look, and the Turkish army came to support the confused, unable to distinguish which was the enemy and which was the friendly army.
It just so happened that the South Korean army was close to the Turkish army, so regardless of the three seven twenty-one, the Turks saw that the enemy was coming, it was called an excitement, and rushing forward was a fierce operation, beating the Korean army to the ground.
This good news spread to the rear, through the Western media in a boast, Turkey's bravery and belligerence are known to everyone, and when the war is over to count the casualties, it is found that Turkey is fighting the South Korean army, not the Chinese volunteer army, but at that time there are not many people paying attention to the truth, and their needed purpose has been achieved.
The battle between the Turkish brigade and the volunteer army was the third battle after the landing, but the Turkish comrades were somewhat unlucky, and as soon as they came up, they encountered an elite division of the volunteer army, the 38th Army, and the leading general of the Turkish brigade, Yazic, did not understand the language, did not understand English, and could not understand most of the instructions from the United States in the rear, and the Turkish brigade led by Yazichi could only grope forward, fighting with the volunteers only with a single heart.
In the course of the battle, the Turkish brigade broke up with the American army and entered the encirclement of the volunteer army, and at that time the volunteer army ranked the Turkish army and the American army side by side, so that the person in charge of the battle should not be careless.
In the end, Yazic, who did not receive the order, led the territorial army to officially start a war with the volunteer army, and the result was that the battle lasted only two hours, and the Turkish brigade was reduced from 5,000 to 1,500 men.
By the time the U.S. order was received, two hours later, the Turkish brigade had broken through the siege with the remaining tanks supported by the United States.
In the process of retreat, the fate of the US troops is also inconsistent, the Turkish brigade, which has little communication, is completely lost contact with the UN army, and it is difficult for the US military to support the battlefield, which is doomed to the tragic casualties of the Turkish brigade.
Through these several battles, the United Nations army completely saw the strength of Turkey, since then, in the Korean battlefield has never seen the figure of the Turkish brigade, in our country also circulated such a sentence "the dog husky is the turkey in the country."
Attacking the Allies, capturing fake flags, and turning 5,000 to 1,500 in two hours laid the foundation for Turkey to become a husky in the country.
Therefore, through Turkey's deeds in the Korean War, it can be known that only when a country has strong military strength can it be exempted from being bullied by other countries, and if it is backward, it will be beaten, and it will be strong to stand.
