The number of the U.S. army unit established in World War I was crushed by our army in 1950, and the flag was used as a burden
Text/No Counting Reading History
In November 1950, the winter wind in North Korea blew a flag with a "polar bear" painted on it, and the background of the flag was blue, which was the flag of the "Polar Bear Regiment", the elite unit of the US army.
01 Beginnings
On the 27th, 100,000 volunteer soldiers had surrounded two divisions of the American Army.
With the order of the volunteer commander, the fighters rushed out from their predetermined positions and quickly divided the American army.
The sudden attack of the volunteer soldiers caused chaos in the American army, and for a time, the resistance of the American army was very weak.
02 Encirclement
On the 30th, Zhan Danan mobilized all the artillery and bombarded the "Polar Bear Regiment" of the US army continuously.
The shells rained like raindrops and exploded on the US positions, and the US soldiers of the "Polar Bear Regiment" at this time were holding their heads and scurrying around, looking around for a place to lie down.
Although the firepower of the US army was strong, at this time, Zhan Danan could mobilize a whole army of artillery to bomb the US army, was it still better than the artillery of one of his regiments?
By the time the smoke cleared, the Chinese artillery barrage had stopped, and a large number of American soldiers had been engulfed in artillery fire.
At this time, the charge horn sounded, and the sound became a nightmare for the American soldiers.
"Kill!" What followed was the shouting and killing of volunteer soldiers.
The scene that really frightened the American soldiers came, and a large number of volunteer soldiers rushed out from all directions, several times that of the American army.
Along with the shouts of death, all the firepower of the AMERICAN army was fired in unison, but it failed to block the momentum of the volunteer army's attack, and could only watch the enemy several times larger than itself enter the position.
“Shit！” The U.S. military reporter seemed particularly lonely in the battlefield, and he began to feel sincerely afraid of such a scene.
On the position, the American soldiers and the volunteer soldiers had already begun to fight, and the volunteer soldiers were in full swing, and after rushing into the American position, the shiny bayonet was raised.
The bayonet stabbed at the abdomen of the American soldier, although the American soldier's individual combat ability was not weak, but in the face of the wolf-like tiger, the number of volunteer soldiers, their decline has been exposed.
Gradually, the U.S. defense line has shrunk more and more seriously, and the remaining U.S. soldiers are holding on to a sense of faith, they are afraid of being captured, and they are also afraid of death.
However, the war soon came to an end, the "polar bear regiment" of the US army was completely annihilated, and the battlefield was in a mess, and the volunteer soldiers finally put down their nervous hearts.
03 Cleaning
The flag of the US army was also blown down, and Zhang Jiqing, the sharp-eyed volunteer squad leader, picked it up, good fellow, this flag of the US army looks good.
"This thing can be a baggage," Zhang Jiqing said.
The comrades in the vicinity all laughed, and then began to clean up the battlefield and collect the booty.
It was an elite unit established by the U.S. military in World War I, and the number of troops lasted for nearly a hundred years.
In fact, this battle was not easy to fight, and the volunteer soldiers, while surrounding the American soldiers, marched wildly in the cold winter moon of Korea, because of the lack of clothing and food, a large number of comrades were frozen to death on the road.
But the soldiers relied on a fierce force to defeat the US army.
