"Seven companies should be 157 people, and it is actually 1 person!" When Yi Qianxi in "The Water Gate Bridge of Chosin Lake" reported the number with a hoarse voice, the audience could not help but cry, and the fierceness of the war and the heroism of the martyrs made countless people break through the defense.
Historically, the competition for the Watergate Bridge has been extremely fierce. The U.S. military relied on advanced industrial technology, while the Chinese volunteers relied on an iron will. The contrast between the two was particularly evident in the 3rd scramble.
After the first two blows up the bridge were repaired by the US army, the volunteer army received an order from its superiors: at all costs, blow up the Watergate Bridge!
The U.S. military learned the lesson of the previous two bridges and sent more than 40 tanks and a large number of American troops to defend the Watergate Bridge.
But our heroic volunteers still managed to blow up the bridge, and even blew up the foundation of the bridge. The next day, a deputy division commander came to inspect the results of the bridge bombing, and he was very satisfied, believing that it would not take half a year for the US army to repair it.
In fact, not only do we think so, but even Smith, commander of the FIRST Marine Division, thinks so. He sent a telegram to MacArthur informing him of the situation and preparing for the total annihilation of the army.
The news soon reached the Pentagon, which met overnight, and after discussion, they were dismayed to find that the once proud First Marine Division was really likely to be gone this time.
But Smith, after all, is a battle-hardened old fox, and he suddenly thought: If the finished steel beam is airdropped to the Watergate Bridge, can a new bridge be quickly built? He reported the idea to headquarters, which felt feasible.
As a loyal Eagle Dog of the United States, Japan's Mitsubishi arranged for thousands of people to make M-2 steel beams overnight, while at the US Air Force base in South Korea, they began air-dropped steel beam tests, and after many attempts, they succeeded.
Three days later, the U.S. military dispatched a large transport plane to airdrop the 8 sets of steel beams made over the Watergate Bridge. Among them, 1 set fell into our position, 2 sets fell to the ground and smashed, and the remaining 5 sets just built a bridge, and the US army was lucky to escape.
The original time that took half a year was directly shortened to 3 days, and I had to sigh at the powerful power of science and technology in the military. However, this can also reflect from the side that China can win from this war in which the military strength of the two sides is completely unequal, and how tenacious and heroic the volunteer army should be!
