On October 25, 1950, the mainland raised troops to North Korea to help them resist the aggression of South Korea and the United States.
Before the troops were sent, there was a lot of controversy in the country about this matter.
Many experts believe that China at that time simply did not have the strength to confront the powerful United States.
However, the geographical location of the Korean Peninsula is very important, and once it is reunified by South Korea, it means that the mainland and the United States will lose their strategic buffer zone, and the northeastern region of the mainland will be completely exposed to the military threat of the United States.
Therefore, Chairman Mao withstood the pressure and ordered Mr. Peng to lead the army to support North Korea.
When our army first went to Korea, almost all countries in the world were not optimistic about us.
In particular, the US military believes that the mainland's move is undoubtedly a praying arm to block the car and bring humiliation on itself.
You must know that at that time, the mainland had just been liberated, and it had not yet completely emerged from the shadow of war.
Therefore, the prisoners of many countries held in the prisoner camps were laughed at by the mainland's actions.
Probably the most excited were the Japanese prisoners of war, who, in their opinion, would not be able to defeat the American army.
When China is defeated, the US troops will land from the northeast and then defeat China, and then they will be spared their homeland.
According to the correctional memories of the prisoner of war camp, when the news of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea came out, many Japanese soldiers who had been sluggish became active as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.
They are very concerned about the news of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, discuss it almost every day, and imagine the picture of China's defeat every day.
In stark contrast to the Japanese prisoners of war were the Kuomintang prisoners of war, who admired the PLA very much when they learned the news of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea.
He even set up a cauldron in the prisoner of war camp and made a lot of fried noodles and sent them to the front line.
Although the Kuomintang prisoners of war did not agree with the Communist Party's philosophy, in the final analysis, everyone was "one family".
Therefore, they always maintain a high degree of solidarity externally, hoping that their brothers and sisters can achieve victory.
After three years of struggle, the mainland defeated the US army with a stubborn will, impressing the whole world.
When the news reached the prisoner of war camp, all the Kuomintang prisoners of war raised their arms and shouted, but the Japanese prisoners of war quickly wilted like frosted eggplants.
At the same time, many countries around the world have a different view of the continent.
But not all countries are happy about the continent's victory.
For example, the Soviet Union, which had not collapsed at that time, and relations with the mainland had not deteriorated.
When war broke out on the Korean Peninsula, the Soviet Union did not intend to take action, and was even prepared for the defeat of North Korea.
The Soviet Union was prepared to accommodate North Korea by establishing a nominal government in the northeast.
However, it is difficult for others to sleep soundly on the couch, so the mainland cannot let the DPRK go under any circumstances.
After the mainland sent troops, the Soviet Union dragged on for a long time before sending the air force support that had been promised early on.
And throughout the war, the USSR did not contribute much, just paddling.
In addition to this, the Soviet Union also made a fortune from this war.
The Soviet Union was a military power, and they sold the overstocked obsolete military equipment to the mainland and the DPRK at a high price, not only emptying their stocks, but also making a lot of money.
It stands to reason that the Soviet Union should be satisfied that it has taken advantage of it.
But after China defeated the United States, they were not happy.
Because at this time, the Soviet Union felt that China was no longer the little brother of the former "submissive promises", but a great power that could threaten its position.
Therefore, after the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, the attitude of the Soviet Union began to cool down, until the last two completely broke off diplomatic relations.
After the United States resisted US aggression and aided Korea, its view of the mainland has undergone earth-shaking changes.
Prior to this, the United States had never taken the mainland seriously, and even did not recognize the new Chinese government at all.
It was only after this war that the United States truly recognized the status of the continent.
MacArthur was also discredited by this war, and the originally majestic five-star colonel could only end miserably.
After the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, Japan's view was the most true.
I believe everyone should know that at that time, Japan was a defeated country, and it had already disarmed all its domestic armaments and was not allowed to have its own troops.
The fighting on the Korean Peninsula also has nothing to do with him.
However, Japan seized the opportunity and took advantage of this battlefield to receive a large number of military orders.
They have not only developed the domestic economy rapidly, but have also become the number one junior brother of the United States, elevating their status.
With the support of the United States, Japan has become the first developed country in Asia, and its economy is far ahead of Asia.
He also took advantage of this opportunity to form his own self-defense force.
Although the Self-Defense Forces are not regular armies, they can at least have armed equipment so that they are not defenseless in the event of war.
Therefore, Japan is very happy to see this war, and even if the mainland wins the final victory, Japan does not care.
