China's oldest army, with two divisions on the Korean battlefield, was once used as a miscellaneous card

Hello everyone, I'm Mir.

Recently, there have been more and more whitewashing parties on the Internet, and there were a group of kneeling wrong graves before, mistakenly regarding Zhang Zhidong as Li Hongzhang's junior armor Yong clan, and now some people say that the reason why a certain Wang division would "annihilate the enemy by 100 million and turn into treasure islands" was because the elite was consumed in the War of Resistance Against Japan.

But in fact, how to say this view, just wash it.

Today, Mir will tell you what the royal division that you thought was defeated by was what it looked like after being taken over by our army.

During the Battle of Changchun, the Kuomintang 60th Army of the Dian Dynasty revolted on the battlefield. This army has always been regarded as a miscellaneous army. And it's the kind of army that fights wars and gets rich at the same time. Such an army was not taken seriously even after the uprising. Seriously, I don't blame others for not looking up to this unit. It's just that such a soldier army, others really look down on it.

However, it was such soldiers who confronted the Americans on the Korean battlefield.

After the start of the Korean War, the 60 armament was changed to the Volunteer Army 50 Army. When this army first entered the battlefield, it was difficult to be taken seriously because it was not the main force. After three confrontations with the United Nations army, it is known that the 50th Army has long been less than a base number to carry, and the ammunition reserves of the military department are even smaller, only half a base. As for the reserve base, that is even more unthinkable. In addition, there is a critical shortage of food. In order to ensure the food of the front-line combat troops, logistics and military cadres only eat one meal a day.

Later, when the American army was pursuing, 50 armaments were deployed on the south side of the Han River to confront the United Nations army head-on and conduct defensive blockade operations. Until the Han River thawed, the U.S. army could not march through the ice. To say that it is good to hear is called a backwater war, and to say that it is ugly is to fight a war of attrition.

However, something surprising happened that the 50th Army, in the south of Seoul, with its back to the Han River, actually stopped the Us Third Division, the 25th Division, the British 29th Brigade and the Turkish First Brigade. Unable to take their positions because of a long-term attack, the Unissured Troops were ashamed and angry, and came up with a famous stunt: fire coverage. The shells were like raindrops. But even so, the 50th Army still used its flesh and blood to painstakingly defend its position. At its worst, three or four consecutive positions were completely destroyed in one day. Less than half a month after fighting, the 50th Army has basically gone online. The whole army has only about five battalions of troops, and it also has combat effectiveness. Eventually, two months later, the Han River faced thawing, and the 50th Army's defensive mission was completed and withdrawn to the north bank of the Han River.

During these 50 days of duty, the 50th Army killed and wounded more than 11,000 enemy prisoners, destroyed more than 70 tanks and armored vehicles, shot down and injured 15 enemy aircraft, and captured more than 1,800 guns, 17 cars, and 34 artillery pieces. One of the British heavy tanks won and was eliminated by their reorganization.

When the 50 military vehicle returned, Mr. Peng excitedly shook the hand of the commander of the 50th Army and said: Well fought, the number of wisdom, I will give you reinforcements, the veterans will give priority to you, how much to give, the weapons and equipment of the Soviet aid column have also arrived, and priority will be given to the 50th Army!

At that time, Zeng Zesheng, the commander of the 50th Army, burst into tears when he heard the words, and he had been mixed in the Kuomintang army for more than twenty years, and he had never seen the replacement of troops and equipment.

In this way, the 50th Army became a real elite. Such a unit could withstand the attack of two elite divisions of the US army without any geographical advantage. You say that such an army is not elite. And such elites, under the command of the Nationalist Army, there are thousands, and in the end they did not show their combat effectiveness until after joining our army. Why, you say? I don't want to say it doesn't matter, I say, eat tightly before, eat tightly in the back, such a thing is not finished is not reasonable!.

Speaking of the 50th Army, this army can now be said to be the oldest army in China's history. From the newly organized 19th town of the Qing Dynasty, to the Cai Yi Defending The National Army in the Patriotic War, and then to the Dian Army, the 60th Army of the Nationalist Army and the 50th Army of our Army can be said to have witnessed the history of China. It has always been a very glorious army. This army has always existed. Never go away! In other words, the kind of army that fought for China's World War II has never disappeared.
