Chapter 162 Don't fight the Chinese army on the ground

In mid-June 1953, the Korean armistice negotiations were about to reach all agreements and were ready to sign. At this time, Li Chengman quit. He no longer cooperates with the Americans. He dropped the American rake. He made up his mind: to carry on the war to the end. He shouted "a full-scale military attack on the Yalu River", "fight alone if necessary", and openly rejected the terms of the armistice agreed by the Americans. "A truce would mean death to us on its present terms, and we have consistently demanded that the Chinese troops be driven from our land, even if in doing so we had to fight alone," he said.

It doesn't matter if it's just bluffing, he really did it. On the evening of June 17, Syngman Rhee forcibly detained more than 27,000 prisoners of the Korean People's Army in the name of immediate release, and forcibly incorporated many of them into the South Korean army. At the same time, he expressed his opposition to the signing of the armistice agreement. When he got the news, General Peng Dehuai, who was full of personality, quit. He immediately sent a telegram to Mao Zedong to teach this lunatic a lesson: According to the current situation, it seems more beneficial to postpone the armistice agreement until the end of the month. In order to deepen the internal contradictions of the enemy, it is planned to deal another blow to Syngman Rhee's puppet army and wipe out 15,000 puppet troops. This intention has been informed to Deng Hua for proper arrangements. Tomorrow, I will meet with Prime Minister Kim on the 21st. On the 22nd, I will go to Zhisi to discuss various arrangements after the armistice.Peng Dehuai.

Mao Zedong replied the next day: "At 22:00 on June 20, the signing of the armistice must be postponed. When it is appropriate to postpone it depends on the development of the situation before making a decision. It is extremely necessary to wipe out more than 10,000 puppet troops. Mao Zedong. " No matter how the Americans tried to persuade him, Syngman Rhee just said "the bastard eats the weight - he is determined" and refused to agree. The Americans' persuasion was ineffective, and the UN commander Clark had to hand over this problem to the Chinese. He spread his arms and said helplessly, "Let the Chinese teach the Koreans a lesson!"

Mao Zedong immediately instructed: "There must be a major statement in action in order to cooperate with the situation and put sufficient pressure on the enemy so that similar incidents will not happen again." Who will sing the "last show" of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea? Zhou Enlai suggested: "Let Yang Yong go. 'Sanyang Kaitai'!" Mao Zedong immediately adopted Zhou Enlai's proposal. In 1964, a shooting performance field of a certain army in Beijing. British Field Marshal Montgomery is visiting China.The veteran of the battlefield took over a semi-automatic rifle, aimed and fired, and the steel target fell down.

Later, Marshal Montgomery handed the gun to General Yang Yong, the commander of the Volunteer Army in the late Korean War who accompanied him on the tour, and then the commander of the Beijing Military Region. Yang Yong was not polite at all.I saw him take the gun, raise the gun, and shoot nine bullets in a row. Hit the target. After Marshal Montgomery returned to China, at a press conference, he said sincerely: "This will become a taboo for military strategists. Don't fight the Chinese army on the ground."
