In that turbulent era, Japan's iron hooves trampled on the land of Korea, and many Korean people left their homes, among them, Fang Hushan was one of them. Fang Hushan, a regimental-level cadre of the Korean People's Army, was scattered due to the war, so he had to go into exile in northeast China, joined the Anti-Japanese Federation, and fought side by side with his Chinese compatriots.
Fang Hushan is not only extremely brave on the battlefield, but also a commander with great military talent. In order to arouse the enthusiasm of more Korean compatriots to participate in the war, the leaders of the Anti-Japanese Federation decided to let him form a special force - the Korean Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army. This unit has become a unique force in the Anti-Japanese Federation, active in the vast northeast land.
Fang Hushan's reputation became louder and louder on the battlefield, and even terrified the Japanese army. Seeing his outstanding talent, the leadership decided to send him to the Soviet Union for further study and to learn more advanced military theories.
After five years of study, Fang Hushan returned with great honor and continued to lead his Korean volunteers to fight the enemy on the battlefield of resistance against Japan.
In 1945, with the surrender of Japan, Fang Hushan's department assumed the heavy responsibility of guarding Japanese prisoners of war. In the process of preparing to repatriate the prisoners of war, a sudden riot broke out. Many innocent people lost their lives in this chaos.
Fang Hushan had a deep hatred for the Japanese army since he was a child. This prisoner of war riot aroused endless anger in his heart. Faced with this sudden change, Fang Hushan must make a choice, not only to deal with the immediate crisis, but also to balance the complex emotions in his heart.
Fang Hushan stood on the city wall, looking at the snowflakes in the sky. His face was full of heavy and complicated emotions. As a warrior who has experienced blood and fire, Fang Hushan knows the cruelty of war. In front of him was a group of Japanese prisoners of war, who had been brutal and ruthless on the battlefield, but now prisoners.
Fang Hushan ordered the prisoners of war to kneel on the ground, and his voice was resolute and heavy: "Your crimes, every soul remembers. His eyes were piercing with hatred, but at the same time there was deep pain.
The prisoners of war shivered, feeling the fragility of life in the bitter cold. Fang Hushan turned around and left, without personally carrying out any punishment, his heart became extremely entangled at this moment. He knows that revenge does not solve hatred, it only allows the vicious circle to continue.
Subsequently, Fang Hushan received a recall order from Kim Il Sung. The outbreak of the Korean War threw him into a new battle again. Faced with the confrontation between the two Koreas, Kim Il Sung encountered an unprecedented predicament.
At this moment, Chairman Mao learned of the situation and deeply felt that the security of China and the DPRK was closely linked. He decided to send volunteers to support North Korea in order to protect common interests and security.
Fang Hushan, a warrior who grew up in the war, once again stood at the crossroads of history. From the Anti-Japanese War to the Korean War, the trajectory of his life has become the most unique testimony of that era. In the tide of international politics, he is not only a warrior, but also a participant and witness of history.
In the tense atmosphere of the Korean War, Kim Il Sung felt unprecedented worries in his heart. His decisions sparked the bloody war, and now, he's waiting for help, hoping to turn the tide of the war. When he learned that China had decided to send volunteers, the stone in Kim Il Sung's heart finally landed. He quickly issued an order to inform Fang Hushan on the front line and asked him to lead his troops to withdraw north of the 38th parallel to cooperate with the upcoming Chinese People's Volunteers.
When Fang Hushan received the order, he was directing the battle on the front line. This veteran general, who had fought bloodily on the battlefield in China, was once again facing a new challenge. He knew that this time it was not only for the sake of North Korea, but also for the sake of joining forces with his Chinese comrades-in-arms again.
During the Korean War, Fang Hushan demonstrated his outstanding talent as a brilliant commander. Especially in the Battle of Kaesong, he used the tactics he had learned and practiced in China, such as siege and reinforcements, and darkness to transfer the battlefield to his home turf. These tactics have made the U.S. and South Korean forces deeply intractable.
In a fierce engagement, Fang Hushan skillfully routed two of the enemy's divisions with only one division. This kind of record not only frightened the enemy, but also played an important role in the stability of the 38th Parallel.
In the Shangganling area, Fang Hushan and the Chinese People's Volunteers fought side by side and jointly made great contributions to the final victory of the Korean War. After the end of the war, the supreme leadership of the DPRK awarded the Republic of Banghosan the honorary title of double hero, as well as the State Order and the Order of the Red Star, which was not only the highest affirmation of his military talent, but also the greatest appreciation for his selfless dedication and sacrifice.
Fang Hushan stood on the podium, holding a heavy medal, his heart full of complicated emotions. These honors belong not only to him personally, but also to all his comrades-in-arms who died in the war, as well as to the ordinary people who suffered in the war. He knew very well that the victory in this war was the result of the joint efforts of all participants.
