The Battle of Cheorwon took place in May 1951, when the United Nations forces launched a large-scale "Spring Offensive" on the Korean battlefield, targeting Cheorwon, the rear base of the Volunteers. In order to defend Tieyuan and ensure the material supply line for the follow-up operations of the Volunteer Army, the 63rd Army shouldered the arduous task of blocking it.
In the face of an enemy army several times their size, the commanders and fighters of the 63rd Army did not flinch, and with firm conviction and tenacious perseverance, they waged a desperate struggle with the enemy. In the 14 days of fierce fighting, the officers and men of the 63rd Army paid great sacrifices, and 20,000 officers and soldiers bravely sacrificed their lives.
At the most intense moment of the battle, Fu Chongbi, the commander of the 63rd Army, personally went to the front line to command, and he took the lead and led the soldiers to charge into battle. During a charge, Fu Chongbi was seriously wounded, but he still insisted on fighting until the last moment. His heroic deeds inspired all the officers and soldiers to fight bravely to kill the enemy and defend Tieyuan to the death.
The Battle of Cheorwon was not only a military contest, but also a contest of will and spirit. Under extremely harsh conditions, the officers and men of the 63rd Army used their lives and blood to compose heroic hymns that moved the heavens and the earth. Their heroic deeds will forever be recorded in the annals of history and inspire generations to come.
Despite the huge sacrifices of the 63rd Army, their heroic resistance successfully delayed the enemy's offensive momentum and bought valuable time for the strategic transfer of the Volunteer Army. Their sacrifices and efforts laid a solid foundation for the final victory of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea.
