The Battle of Changjin Lake: Four Shots takes you into the history that should be remembered.

The movie Battle of Changjin Lake is a large-scale war film jointly produced by Chen Kaige, Tsui Hark and Lin Chaoxian with different styles. It was released in Double Eleven, lasting for 3 hours, with tens of thousands of shooting teams and huge investment. It is said that only 4 billion box office can break even and should be supported.

I take the battle of Changjin Lake in the Korean War as the historical background and tell you that tragic history. One generation has suffered five generations, one generation has done five generations' work, one generation has finished five generations' battles, and one generation has made five generations' contributions.

One. select

Scene 1: At 3 o'clock in the morning, the teachers are still thinking about whether to fight to resist US aggression and aid Korea. How to fight? Who's in command? It's hard to make up your mind.

During the Korean War, the United Nations Army (1. America, 2 Britain, 3. France, 4. Five people in Canada. 6 people in Australia. New Zealand, 7. Turkey, 8 Ethiopia, 9 people. South Africa 10. Greece 165438. In addition to the above-mentioned countries that sent troops to participate in the war, India, Italy, Norway, Sweden and Denmark also sent medical teams or medical boats to intervene and drove the North Korean army back to the 38th parallel, ignoring China's warning and continuing to cross the 38th parallel northward.

This is the Korean War directed by the Soviet Union, and the Soviet Union is enjoying a beautiful dream with an ambiguous attitude. North Korea won the Soviet Union and got Busan Port. If North Korea loses China, it will have to turn to the Soviet Union to help defend the Northeast. If the U.S. military has reached the northeast and the Soviet Union has just returned to the northeast, if they confront each other across the Yalu River, it will only mean that China has become a buffer zone between the United States and the Soviet Union, and both sides will win.

Aid Korea, New China is in an emergency. War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression: We deeply understand the gap with Japan. World War II showed us the gap between Japan and the United States. In the face of the United States, which can crush Japan in a few seconds, the gap between our national strength and scientific and technological strength is unacceptable, not to mention the American imperialists and the atomic bomb. If you send troops, you must win, but you can't win anyway.

If there is no aid, North Korea will certainly fail, and Northeast China will be opened. In fact, at that time, the air force of American imperialism had invaded the northeast airspace for investigation, strafing and bombing. The northeast is the Ruhr area of new China, and the real "coal-steel complex" can't be the front line; The Kuomintang will use North Korea to counterattack the mainland, and the remnants of the mainland are also ready to move and prepare for the war in Northeast China.

Historical experience tells us that protecting North Korea means protecting Northeast China, and protecting Northeast China means protecting New China. The reason is easy to understand, but the determination is difficult. In fact, the division commander who sent troops to North Korea has already made up his mind, but it is still a question who will command it. Shuai Lin, Peng Dehuai and Su Yu are good at commanding large-scale corps operations in the Party. Because the strength gap is too big, Shuai Lin, known for its caution, explicitly opposes sending troops; General Su Yu is the most suitable, when he was too ill to get out of bed; At the critical moment, who dares to cross the knife at once, only General Peng. Boss Peng came to the teacher's residence late at night and prepared a plan. The idea of using mountains to weaken the mechanization advantage of American imperialism, using midnight battles to weaken the air advantage of American imperialism, and concentrating superior forces to fight annihilation battles hit it off with teachers.

Our generation has fought all the wars that should be fought, so our descendants don't have to fight any more!

?

Second, the gap.

Shot 2: From the beginning, the film shows the comprehensive strength of the American imperialists in a large space.

Countless planes are flying freely in the air. Aircraft carriers and warships on the sea are like going down to jiaozi, and tanks and chariots on the land are one after another.

In the film, the Marine 1 Division (the commander is General oliver smith, the vanguard of the US Army 10) is the trump card of the US military. In the Pacific battlefield, it has never suffered defeat in the face of the most elite Japanese army. This is a reinforcement division with more than 30,000 people. It has 139 tanks, 432 howitzers and cannons, more than 3,000 cars and 1600 radio stations. More than the ninth legion combined. Especially in radio, a class of American troops can call artillery and even aircraft support by radio.

Logistics support from the base to the diet, wear leather clothes, eat turkey, eat and drink, whatever you want.

Every time the US military goes out, it carries a lot of materials, weapons and shells, and it is always accompanied by a large number of vehicles and tanks. With the ammunition consumption of the US military, we basically have to rely on mountains of materials to fight.

On the other hand, we have no air and sea power. At first, the Soviets agreed to provide the air force, but at the last moment when the volunteers entered the DPRK, the Soviets chickened out and said that they would not provide aircraft or air support.

Compared with a separate army, we moved quickly into the DPRK and basically had no heavy weapons. The main battle weapon is a small caliber rifle left by Japan. This weapon is a typical long-range weapon, but it cannot kill people. At the beginning of the film, the task of Company 7 was to escort 20 radio stations into the DPRK, and as a result, 8 radio stations were lost on the way.

In terms of logistics support, because there is no air superiority, the support route is blocked and it is difficult to get through. When entering the DPRK, weapons, ammunition and materials were basically carried with you, and the quantity was limited. Due to the competition for time and fighters, the Ninth Corps (the reinforcements under the jurisdiction of 20, 26 and 27) was originally the ace of the East China Field Army, 1, 8 and 9. It turns out that he is secretly training in the southeast coast, preparing to liberate the elite troops in Taiwan Province Province. The 9th Corps not only has the history of reorganizing the 74th Division of the U.S. plane, but also has the experience of mountain fighting. Temporary emergency transfer from the south. Before changing clothes, many troops entered North Korea in light clothes. After the fighting started, the number of non-combat casualties was serious, with the ninth corps casualties 19202 and frostbite casualties of 28954. Many teams lost their combat effectiveness without participating in the war at all, so that they could not form superior forces to achieve panic in the later period. If the Soviets help in the battle of Changjin Lake, the probability of the First Normal University of the US Marine Corps will be explained in Changjin Lake. The diet is mainly fried noodles and potatoes. In order to avoid air raid, it is impossible to make a fire. Volunteers have no hot meals and no water. When they are thirsty, they eat snow. Potatoes are frozen like ice. When eating, you should put them in your arms and heat them before eating. Due to insufficient supplementation of carotene and vitamin A, most volunteers suffer from night blindness and can't see anything.

Volunteers could not supply ammunition or materials, and the logistics convoy was blown up on the road. Some companies are even miserable, with only three bullets per soldier. In the battle of Changjin Lake, the first wave of attacking volunteers all carried weapons; Not everyone in the second wave of attacks was armed. They picked up the weapons that sacrificed their comrades in the first wave of attacks and charged. The third wave is all political workers with submachine guns. Volunteers have used all available people, and no one will back down.

The teacher later said that the three most difficult things to fight against the United States are whether to participate in the war, whether to defend, and whether to ensure logistics. A war without logistical support will not last long. In the later period of the war, the people of Northeast China spontaneously formed stretcher teams and stretcher camps, and went deep into the Korean battlefield to rescue the wounded and deliver materials.

Third, tragedy.

Scene 3: Song, commander of the Ninth Corps, walked out of the headquarters and took a look at the outdoor thermometer, which showed more than 30 degrees below zero. He knew that there were still many troops without cotton-padded clothes, and he couldn't help sighing: We are not only fighting the American imperialists, but also fighting God.

The Korean War not only faced the U.S. imperialism, which ranked first in the world's military, but also caught up with the extremely cold weather once in 50 years in North Korea, with the temperature reaching MINUS 30 to 40 degrees at night. Soldiers' feet, socks and hands are as white as snow, the thread of the Grenade cannot be pulled out, and the fuse will not get angry. The barrel of the mortar shrank because of the cold, which made it impossible to hit 70%. The soldiers' hands are glued to the shells ... there is no problem in charging, and they are afraid to lurk in the position. The soldiers wore rubber shoes with a temperature of tens of degrees below zero, and everyone's feet were festered with cold. Rubber shoes are frozen on your feet and can't be taken off at all. As soon as you take it off, you tear off a layer of skin. Some soldiers' ears are frozen hard and fall off when they touch it. They don't feel anything at all!

The winter clothes of the US military include winter hats, tweed uniforms, sweaters, coats, woolen socks, leather boots and duck down sleeping bags. The company is equipped with cotton tents and stoves. In addition to a small gasoline stove, each class and each car is also equipped with an electric stove specially used for heating. Due to sufficient ammunition and gasoline, in order to prevent the equipment from being damaged by freezing, the US military stipulates that weapons should be fired every 30 minutes. In desperation, the company commander of the American army told the tired soldiers to change their wet socks to avoid frostbite. Despite this, there are still 67 people in a battalion of the US military who can't move because of frostbite in one day, and several of them were forced to amputate afterwards.

On the way back, the First Marine Division of the US Army met a sniper company of the Volunteers. Because of the long-term ambush in the cold fortifications, the whole company was frozen into an ice sculpture. Although they all died, everyone remained vigilant and unyielding. This made the division commander of the First Marine Division greatly sigh: This is a team that can never be defeated.

After the war, Song, commander of the Ninth Corps, reported to the Central Military Commission the huge losses caused by the severe cold to the Ninth Corps: the 5th Company of the 242nd Regiment of the 80th Division of the 27th Army was preparing to attack the 3rd1Regiment of the 7th Division of the United States, except for a straggler and a correspondent. After the battle started, no one in the company stood up. When cleaning the battlefield, I found that all the cadres and soldiers of the company froze to death in the battle formation, and there were no scars and blood on the body. In the Battle of Changjin Lake, the "Ice Sculpture Company" was organized in this way, and there were also 20 companies 177 and 2 companies 180.

"The Long Battle: Korean War in the Eyes of Americans" once recorded such a tragic scene: "China soldiers are covered in ice and are still charging tenaciously. China soldiers' only anti-freezing measure is to coat their feet with lard and suet to prevent frostbite, but they have shown the most incredible courage and willpower in the history of human war. Hundreds of thousands of officers and men trudged through glaciers in snowy areas and crossed hail and sea of fire in the cold of MINUS 20 degrees Celsius. "

After the war, Smith, the division commander of the US Marine Corps 1 Division, was extremely impressed: in the battle of Changjin Lake, the steel troops (American troops) fought side by side with the steel people (volunteers). Teachers have also commented: we are more angry than steel!

According to statistics,198,000 volunteers were killed (including those who died of injury, illness and disappearance), and 292,800 people were killed by the "United Nations Army" led by the United States (about 62,400 American troops, 227,800 South Korean troops and 2,597 other members of the United Nations Army). This war is very fierce, regardless of China and the United States.

Relying on the correct strategy of the upper level, reasonable tactics at the front line, the tenacious fighting spirit of the soldiers, the belief that everyone wants to win after a hundred years of humiliation and the support of the broad masses in the rear, the volunteers won in the case of backward weapons and far fewer casualties than the enemy.

Fourth, meaning.

Scene 4: At the central decision-making meeting, the teacher made a decision to send troops to North Korea, and said: Take one punch to avoid hundreds of punches.

This punch has played a national prestige and played a century of peaceful development. The Korean War was the first war in the United States without a victorious division. In winter, when the blood of that wound just gushed out and solidified into powder and was blown away by the wind, the volunteers were so brave, so brave, and bravely moved forward, breaking the myth that the American imperialists were unbeaten for 200 years. At this time, the whole world was shocked, and everyone could not imagine that/0/5 years after the Nanjing Massacre and only 7 years after the collapse of Henan, Hunan and Guangxi, China's army had pushed the US troops to the south of the 38th parallel. Its own logistics and equipment are seriously at a disadvantage. It is a miracle of war to defeat the strong with the weak, and it is the peak of human hot weapon war. Even omar bradley, chief of staff of the US Army, finally had to admit: "This is a wrong war with the wrong enemy at the wrong place and at the wrong time".

After this war,

The local war between China and the Soviet Union in Treasure Island was precisely because of China's strong fighting capacity in the Korean War that the Soviet Union did not dare to risk a nuclear strike against China and a full-scale war with China.

During the Vietnam Civil War, American troops intervened, and China told the United States through Pakistan that if it crossed the 17 latitude line, China would not sit idly by, and if the American bombing spread to China, China would be regarded as a full-scale war. During the twenty years when the United States invaded Vietnam and was mired in war, it never dared to cross the "red line" drawn by China for the United States, because the United States remembered the 38th parallel of the Korean War.

In this law of the jungle world, without bloody wars and the baptism of fresh blood, other countries can't have awe of you! The War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea not only established China's status as a great power, but also enabled us to obtain a complete industrial system from the Soviet Union (in the process of resisting US aggression and aid Korea, the Soviet Union decided to assist China 156 projects, which was a complete industrial system, and it was also the only time in human history that "a complete industrial system was transferred between the two countries". "156 Project" is not only a complete industrial system, but also the largest intellectual property transfer in the history of human industrialization. Any project has hundreds of thousands of intellectual property rights, and the funds needed are huge. More importantly, there are some things that you can't buy with money (think about the current technical blockade in the United States), which has transformed China from a big agricultural country into an industrial power in the shortest time.

The War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea was a turning point in China's fate.

This war laid the international status of China today, laid the industrial foundation for economic development, and restored the confidence that China people have lost since the late Qing Dynasty, all of which were attributed to the planning of the founding fathers and the implementation of countless revolutionary martyrs giving up their lives.

Pay tribute to the ancestors and remember the martyrs!
