Freeing prisoners of war can also win wars! During the Korean War, Mr. Peng ordered the release of 100 American prisoners of war and released them unscathed, just when everyone was confused, in the next battle between the Volunteer Army and the American Army, they successfully surrounded and annihilated 24,000 enemy troops, and what was the reason behind the sudden release of American prisoners of war? Why did the U.S. military suffer heavy losses afterwards?

The reason why the prisoners were released was because, on the one hand, it was possible to publicize the policy of preferential treatment of the captives by the volunteer army, so that those American soldiers, psychologically tired of the war, had a negative mentality, and broke through their psychological defenses; on the other hand, through the way of chatting, let these American prisoners scatter out and the volunteers were going to retreat to the north, so that after the American soldiers returned, they would certainly be elated and tell their army commanders, so that they would be able to lure the enemy deeper and the American troops would become turtles in an urn. It was bound to suffer a greater blow from the volunteers.

The arrogant MacArthur, even more convinced that this battle would be successful, was still grinding on the road, and the troops who only walked a few kilometers a day, after receiving MacArthur's orders, drove directly north with full horsepower.

The volunteers gathered a total of 9 corps and attacked the encircled Americans in a sea-shaking position. After this battle, a total of 180,000 Un Troops were defeated by the Volunteers, in the process, the Volunteers annihilated a total of 36,000 enemies, of which the number of casualties reached 24,000, the US Cavalry Division 1st and 25th Divisions were severely damaged, and the US Second Division was almost beaten to the point of canceling the number.
