During the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, a battalion of the US army was beaten to the point where only 37 people were left, and the battalion commander cried on the spot

You may not have imagined that the US military, which has always been proud and arrogant, was actually beaten and wept by our army on the battlefield during the Battle of Songkuofeng in the second campaign to resist US aggression and aid Korea.

On November 24, 1950, MacArthur, the commander-in-chief of the U.S. Coalition Army, was arrogant and attacked north from the east and west, in a vain attempt to annihilate the volunteer army in one fell swoop. In fact, our volunteer army has already prepared bait to lure the enemy deep and catch turtles in the urn.

When the invincible US troops entered the encirclement circle of our army, the only last step to lure the enemy was to encircle the US troops and prevent them from escaping along the Pine Bone Peak. After receiving orders from the volunteer headquarters, the commander of the 112th Division entrusted this crucial task to the 335th Regiment. Therefore, Fan Tianen of the 335th Regiment immediately led the soldiers to Songkuo Peak.

On The Pine Bone Peak, before the interception fortifications of the volunteer army were completed, they saw the black pressure of the US troops flowing in, and the volunteers immediately opened fire on the fleeing US troops, and the US troops who fought could only abandon their vehicles and flee. The Pine Bone Peak is the only way for the US military to survive, so the US military once again launched an attack.

In order to break through and survive, the American army rushed to the volunteer army like a wolf pounced. Planes danced in the sky, shells poured down like money. Relentless artillery fire accompanied by the howling wind struck our positions, and our volunteers rose up in the rain of bullets and bullets. The first positions to be baptized by the fire had been burned to the ground, and some American troops had rushed to the front, and the heroic volunteer soldiers changed into bayonets and rushed forward to fight them. Soon after a wave of fighting, soon another wave of American troops frantically connected, their tanks and cars stretching endlessly, with no end in sight.

I don't know how long later, anyway, as long as the US troops tried to break through, the volunteers tirelessly and heroically returned fire. At the end of the rush, the number of American troops plummeted, and the remaining soldiers were almost exhausted. However, the soldiers of the support army still lined up in front of the front, and only used infantry to strictly defend their positions, without any slackness. The war was fierce, both sides killed red eyes in this battle, and the casualties on both sides were also very tragic, and the 335th Regiment, which was mainly responsible for cutting off the rear road of the American army, suffered heavy casualties. According to the recollections of the surviving volunteers, when the commander of the 2nd Battalion Machine Gun Company was killed, he still held the handle of the machine gun in his hand, and many comrades-in-arms directly fired at the gunfire, and even the bones could not be found.

A steady stream of American troops rushed to the positions held by the volunteers, and the swarms of American troops rushed to the instructors of the three companies, and without hesitation, he directly pulled the grenade and died with the American troops who rushed up.

But the brave and fearless volunteers did not die in vain, and their blood did not shed in vain. The U.S. military carried out a total of 5 large-scale shocks before and after, but all of them ended in failure. One battalion of the U.S. army was beaten to the point that only 37 men remained, and although these people survived, some of them still feel afraid. When the commander of the US army heard that there were only 37 people left in their battalion, he actually cried on the spot.

We should bear in mind that today's peaceful life is not easy to come by, and learn from the spirit of the ancestors who fought bravely and were not afraid of bloodshed.
