MacArthur was so blindsided that he wanted to bomb us with 26 atomic bombs, so why was he finally rejected?

Text/Gibb

It is said that in only one year after the founding of New China, Laos and the United States marched on the DPRK for their own interests, and for the sake of their own security and strategic significance, our country urgently organized volunteer troops to go to the Korean battlefield in batches and began to "resist us and aid Korea and defend the country."

The participation of our volunteer army on the Korean battlefield changed the overall direction of the war, because of the thorny presence of the volunteer army, which made General MacArthur, who was the first in command of the United Nations army at the time, suffer a lot on the Korean battlefield.

Because of the defeat in the Korean battlefield, MacArthur became more and more impatient, angry and cursed, and even proposed to drop 34 atomic bombs on The Chinese mainland, but his proposal was not approved by Washington, and the front lost, why did the old Americans in the rear reject MacArthur's proposal very simply?

It should be said that after our volunteer army officially threw itself into the Korean battlefield, in the first three battles, the "United Nations" army headed by lao Mei suffered a lot, and even, in a subtle way, the direction of the war changed.

At that time, General MacArthur, the leader of the Old United States, because of the defeat in the war, threw all this debt to our volunteer army, and he believed that it was precisely because of the participation of the volunteer army that the "United Nations" army would lose one after another, and it was even possible to lose this victorious war.

In the face of such an unfavorable situation, Laos and the United States wanted to change this situation, so MacArthur thought of the "big killer" atomic bomb they used during World War II to carry out a nuclear strike against China, directly block the border between China and North Korea with the nuclear radiation of the atomic bomb, and at the same time deal a heavy blow to China's industrial production capacity in the war and other production chains, directly cutting off the rear support of the volunteer army.

To say more exaggerated, MacArthur also frantically proposed to directly bomb China with 26 atomic bombs, and he also made extremely detailed plans for the drop points of these 26 atomic bombs.

Among them, including the offensive forces that used 4 atomic bombs to bomb our vanguard, that is, the volunteer troops that our country threw into the Korean battlefield, and other enemies of the United States such as the Korean People's Army.

In addition, MacArthur also wanted to use an additional 4 atomic bombs to deal a heavy blow to our air force military base, etc., directly paralyzing our air power completely, even if there were fighters could not take off normally, and had reached the purpose of absolute control of airspace.

In addition, MacArthur also hoped to drop excess atomic bombs on the Yalu River to form a nuclear radiation belt and completely cut off China's various military logistics supplies to the Korean battlefield.

After MacArthur relayed his advice to Washington, it exploded among the Allies in an instant, and some of america's allies even feared that if MacArthur had actually used the atomic bomb in the Korean War, it would probably have directly triggered World War III, because, with the lessons of World War II, they knew the significance of the atomic bomb.

In addition, the Soviet Union, as the sworn enemy of the "red camp" big brother Lao mei camp, has also publicly issued a statement, saying: Nuclear bombs can also be used to pay homage to nuclear bombs! Speaking of which, it is worth mentioning that at that time, the Soviets already had the ability to build their own nuclear weapons.

The significance of the Soviet Union's words is to tell Washington that if you really dare to use atomic bombs on the Korean battlefield, then this has threatened the interests of the Soviet Union in the Far East, and the Soviet Union will certainly not rule out the possibility of using atomic bombs in retaliation against the United States and its allies.

The Soviet Union had made its attitude clear, the United States and its allies felt pressure, and Truman, as president at the time, was bound to think about the overall situation, and finally categorically rejected MacArthur's request to use the atomic bomb against China.

At that time, Truman even personally intervened to stop MacArthur, who was already crazy, but despite this, MacArthur still went his own way and still could not accept the fact that the US army lost the Korean battlefield.

The editor once searched for some wild history materials, saying that in order to stop MacArthur's crazy plan, Truman also deliberately dismissed O'Donnell, then commander of the US Far East Air Force, because this O'Donnell was the most supported person for MacArthur's crazy plan.

Even though Truman later wanted to settle the embarrassing situation through negotiations, this MacArthur still insisted on using force to completely solve the North Korean problem, because MacArthur only knew that he was a soldier, and negotiations on the battlefield were the greatest insult to soldiers.

In the end, it was after careful consideration that Truman decided to remove MacArthur from his position of real power, so after MacArthur was dismissed, the crazy plan he had envisioned bombing China with atomic bombs eventually came to naught, which was also thanks to Truman's calmness, otherwise, the consequences would be absolutely unimaginable.
