The War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, the weapon that our army hates the most, knocked out one great meritorious service, and killed three as heroes!
The War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea was a war between China and the US Empire. This war can be described as a war to open up the national prestige of New China, and it played an important role in New China standing tall among the nations of the world. In this war, the US military relied on advanced weapons and equipment to make the volunteer army hate it to the extreme, especially this weapon, which can be called the most hated weapon of the volunteer army.
In 1950, the second year of the founding of New China, the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea broke out. At that time, the background of the times was like this, and the polarization led by the United States and the Soviet Union formed a confrontational situation.
The Korean War was a microcosm of the two-level confrontation, with the Western capitalist powers led by the United States sending troops to invade Korea and threatening the safety of New China on the 38th Parallel. At this time, the Chinese volunteers had to rush to Korea to fight the United Nations forces. In this war, one is for the security of New China, and the other is for the independence and freedom of Korea.
The outbreak of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea was a war of great significance to both China and the United States. For China, this was a war that would unleash the national prestige of new China.
For the United States, this war could give them a clear picture of the power of the chinese nascent regime's military. In this way, the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea was in full swing. The United States invested heavily in the Korean War with a large number of new types of weapons that we do not have.
The War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea can be described as our army's first asymmetric operation in the true sense. The strong firepower support of the United States has made our army very distressed. For the officers and men of the frontline operations at that time, the most hated thing was the tanks of the US army.
The tanks of the US army were far more advanced than those of the Japanese army during the War of Resistance, and the volunteer soldiers watched the enemy's tanks flaunt their might in front of us, but they were powerless, and their hearts were extremely depressed. The emergence of this situation in the long run can be said to be very demoralizing to the morale of the soldiers.
Later, in order to adjust the perception of tanks, a commendation system appeared in the Volunteer Army. As a result, in the front-line combat, there was such a call: "Shoot down one small merit, knock out two great merits, and kill three as heroes." "The reason why the volunteer army did this is actually to motivate officers and men to kill the enemy bravely and not to fear the enemy's tanks."
In the previous domestic battlefields, our army has also fought with enemy tanks many times. At that time, our army mainly used human bombs to carry out blasting, in fact, it was to destroy tanks by sacrificing personnel.
The turbulence of the tank in motion is so great that it is difficult to successfully detonate it, whether it is a blasting canister or an explosive pack. At that time, the soldiers stuffed explosives into the tracks or placed them on the tanks, and the explosives would fall off the tanks in the process, which did not have an unexpected effect. If the explosives were placed elsewhere, the explosive packs made of black powder would not hurt the tank at all.
Our soldiers had no choice but to use their bodies to stray into the weakest abdomen of the tank and detonate them. In this way, the tanks suffered limited damage, but also accompanied by great sacrifices. Therefore, every time you hit a tank, it is a tragic scene. In particular, on the battlefield of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, the enemy's tanks were more advanced, and the volunteers fought even more fiercely.
The volunteers rushed to Fight in Korea, one to defend their homeland and the other to defend their country, and the other to international morality. The victory in this battle was bought with the lives of our great volunteers. China's international prestige and world status may have been established since then. We, the people of here, should admire the volunteers and thank them for the great peace they have won for us.
