In commemoration of the 40th anniversary of the Chinese People's Volunteers entering Korea to fight, a book edited by the Encyclopedia of China Publishing House is about to be published, which is worth celebrating. The War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea was a modern war waged shortly after the Chinese people won the War of Liberation under the leadership of the Communist Party of China.At that time, the United States armed forces invaded North Korea and occupied Taiwan, our territory, and burned the war to the Yalu River.When the Democratic People's Republic of Korea is in a critical situation and our country's security is seriously threatened, the Chinese People's Volunteers, composed of outstanding sons and daughters of the Chinese people, hold high the banner of internationalism and patriotism, and use the justice of "resisting US aggression and aiding Korea, defending the country" Together with the heroic Korean People's Army, they waged an extremely arduous and complicated war with the "United Nations Army" headed by the United States.

When this war broke out, it was just one year after the birth of New China, and there were many difficulties.Facing a strong enemy is a severe test for our young new China, a test of blood and fire.Under the leadership of the Communist Party of China and Chairman Mao Zedong, and under the leadership of Commander Peng Dehuai, the Chinese People's Volunteers closely rely on the people of China and North Korea. Under the new situation, they have inherited and developed the glorious tradition of our army. , Second, not afraid of death, brave and wise, won the victory of the war, and returned in triumph.Facts have shown that New China is invincible.Chinese sons and daughters love the motherland, love peace, oppose war, and are not afraid of war or powerful enemies.When the imperialists pushed the flames of war to the borders of the motherland and imposed war on us, we had no choice but to fight tit for tat and fight bravely.During the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, the Volunteers did not fail the trust of the people of the whole country and the expectations of the progressive people all over the world. The war provocation forced the aggressors to realize that New China is a force that cannot be underestimated.Once again proved an irrefutable truth: a just war must be won!

This war is not only a military struggle, but also an overall war of various political, diplomatic, economic and cultural struggles combined with it.As a veteran of the volunteer army who has personally experienced this war, I deeply understand that the reason why we can win this war is the correct leadership and command of the Chinese Communist Party headed by Chairman Mao Zedong, and the creative use of Mao Zedong's military power under the conditions of modern warfare. Thought is the result of millions of volunteer commanders fighting bloody battles and carrying forward the lofty spirit of patriotism, internationalism and revolutionary heroism.It fully demonstrates the strong vitality of the young Xin Zhongmu, and fully demonstrates the awe-inspiring righteousness of the Chinese nation that has stood up.The victory of the Chinese and North Korean people has greatly encouraged the confidence and courage of the peace-loving people all over the world, especially the people of the third world in their fight against imperialism and colonialism.

This collection, edited by a group of experts specially invited by Encyclopedia of China Publishing House, integrates thoughtfulness, accuracy, knowledge and vividness. It not only responds to the relative integrity of the war process, but also pays attention to readability and retrieval , each article has its own topic, with its own focus, the judgment is realistic and novel, and the writing style is relatively fluent and simple.I believe it will be loved by readers, especially young friends. The spiritual wealth left to us by the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea is extremely precious.I earnestly hope that the people of the whole country, especially the broad masses of young friends, will inherit and carry forward it in the construction and defense of socialist modernization.I firmly believe that the Chinese people can overcome all kinds of difficulties, and our socialist motherland will surely become more prosperous.
