CCTV News(Focus Interview): 70 years ago, faced with a powerful enemy armed to the teeth, the Chinese People’s Volunteers, made up of prominent sons and daughters of the Chinese nation, crossed the Yalu River with brilliance and vigor, and began an arduous and bloody battle of two years and nine months. . During the past 70 years, we have never forgotten the immortal feats established by the previous generation of revolutionaries to safeguard international justice, safeguard world peace, and defend the new republic, and we have never forgotten the Chinese People’s Volunteers who wrote the praises of the heroic heroes and all those who contributed to the victory of this war. Those who contributed have never forgotten the martyrs who died heroically in the war. On the morning of the 23rd, the meeting was held in the Great Hall of the People to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the mission of the Chinese People’s Volunteers to resist US aggression and help Korea. Xi Jinping, General Secretary of the CPC Central Committee, President of the State and Chairman of the Central Military Commission delivered an important speech at the meeting.
The important speech of Secretary General Xi Jinping comprehensively reviewed and summarized the great victory and the great contribution of the War to resist American aggression and aid to Korea. On June 25, 1950, the Korean Civil War broke out. Based on its global strategy and Cold War mentality, the United States government made the decision to intervene in the Korean Civil War and sent the Seventh Fleet to invade the Taiwan Strait. In early October 1950, the United States Army flagrantly crossed the 38th parallel in ignorance of the Chinese government’s repeated warnings and set the China-North Korea border on fire. When invading North Korea, US military planes bombed China’s northeastern border area many times, causing serious loss of life and property, and our country’s security is facing serious threats.
Liu Shuai, a professor at the National Defense University, said: “At that time, half of the country’s heavy industry was in the northeast and half of the northeast’s heavy industry was in the south. The border between China and North Korea was more than 1,000 kilometers long. At that time, Comrade Zhou Enlai said something like this. If it is overwhelmed, then the Northeast will not be able to carry out peaceful production and construction. “
At this critical juncture, at the request of the North Korean party and government, the Chinese party and government made the historic decision to resist US aggression and help Korea and defend the country with extraordinary courage and courage. . On October 19, 1950, the Chinese people’s volunteers entered the Korean battlefield under the leadership of Commander Peng Dehuai and the Political Commissar. This is an act of righteousness based on justice.
Professor Liu Bo of the National Defense University said: “After the outbreak of the Korean War, the United States sent the Seventh Fleet to the Taiwan Strait of China. At the same time, it burned the war down to the Yalu River and bombed the area. As comrade Mao Zedong said, if the United States does not invade Taiwan, it is not. If we want to invade our neighbor North Korea, not attack our northeast border, then we will not send troops to North Korea. This is where the justice and the inevitability of our resistance to US aggression and aid to North Korea. “
At that time, the national strength of China and the United States differed greatly. In such asymmetrical and extremely difficult conditions, the Chinese people’s volunteers were unafraid and worked closely with North Korean soldiers and civilians. The first battle at Liangshuidong, the fierce battle at Yunshan city, the battle at the Cheongcheon River, and the fierce battle at Changjin Lake, etc., carried out five consecutive battles. He quickly reversed the Korean War.
Liu Shuai said: “After entering the dynasty, MacArthur first said that the Korean War would end before Thanksgiving in November and that the entire Korean Peninsula would be taken. Our army’s first battle shattered his illusion of take the Korean Peninsula before Thanksgiving. Then MacArthur again claimed that he would take the Korean Peninsula before Christmas, in December. As a result, instead of taking the Korean Peninsula in the second battle, he was defeated by a single blow to the south of the 38th parallel. At this point, it was not until the Volunteers entered the Korean Peninsula. In less than two months, it is clear that the national and military power of our new China has been exhausted. “
Since then, our volunteers have built deep defenses like copper walls and iron walls, carried out many offensive campaigns, crushed “strangulation wars”, resisted “germ wars” and fought bloody battles in Ganling, creating a mighty war. and majestic. After two years and nine months of arduous battles, Chinese and North Korean troops defeated their heavily armed opponents, shattered the myth of the invincibility of the US military, and forced the invincible invaders to sign the armistice agreement on July 27. from 1953.
Professor Liu Bo of the National Defense University said: “On July 27, 1953, the commander-in-chief of the US army that invaded North Korea, Clark, signed the armistice agreement. He said I was the first general in the history of the US Army to sign an armistice agreement without victory. This armistice agreement marked a great victory in the War to resist American aid and aid to Korea. We led American troops invaders and their servants from the Yalu River to the 38th parallel, and we stabilized the front on the 38th parallel, breaking the US attempt to invade and occupy Korea. “
Xi Jinping praised the historic contribution of the victory in the War to resisting US aggression and helping Korea. He noted that after this war, the Chinese people crushed the invader Chen Bingguomen and then strangled New China in the cradle. It can be described as “one punch to avoid a hundred punches.” .
The magnificent War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea forged the great spirit of Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, namely: patriotism, revolutionary heroism, revolutionary optimism, revolutionary loyalty and internationalism.
The great spirit of resisting US aggression and aid to Korea spans time and space, and will last forever. It must be passed on forever and passed from generation to generation. Seventy years ago, the imperialist invaders burned the flames of war on the threshold of New China. The Chinese people know very well that when it comes to aggressors, they have to speak to them in a language they understand: stop wars by war, stop wars by force, win peace, and earn respect for victory. Xi Jinping stressed that no matter how the times develop, we must strengthen the national spirit to defy violence and resist power.
During the War to resist US aggression and help Korea, the Central Committee of the Party took control of the general situation, implemented a powerful war mobilization and correct war guidance, adopted the fighting policy, while maintaining stability and construction, and launched a magnificent movement to resist US aggression and help Korea. People of all ethnic groups across the country supported him. This is a great fight for the future and the destiny of the country and the nation.
In the War to resist American aggression and aid Korea, the Chinese people, inspired by the flag of patriotism, shared the same hatred and united efforts, allowing the world to witness the majestic power contained in the Chinese people. Xi Jinping pointed out that no matter how times develop, we must gather together the national strength of one heart and one heart.
In the Korean battlefield, the volunteer soldiers faced powerful and fierce combat opponents and found themselves in a harsh and cruel battlefield environment. They threw their heads and spilled blood, and used “less steel and more gas” to defeat “more steel and more gas” and wrote a shocking story. , Majestic epic of ghosts crying.
Why is the battle flag so red, the hero’s blood stains it red? The heroes said that behind us is the homeland, for the peace of the people of the homeland, we cannot take a step back! This bloody nature scares the enemy and moves the world! Xi Jinping pointed out that no matter how time unfolds, we must forge the national blood of giving up life and forgetting death and living towards death.
During the War of Resistance Against US Aggression and Aid to Korea, volunteer soldiers and soldiers faced unknown battlefields and unknown enemies, insisting on “you hit yourself, I hit mine, you hit atomic bombs. and I hit grenades, “and gave full play to flexible mobile strategies and tactics. Xi Jinping stressed that no matter how the times develop, we must inspire the national wisdom to maintain integrity, innovate, and forge ahead. Those who are brave to innovate enter and those who are good creators win.
Yesterday 70 years ago, on the battlefield where the smoke rose and the weak defeated the strong, the heroes said that behind us is the homeland! For the peace of the peoples of the homeland, we cannot take a step back! ! It is precisely because we have great national strength, national strength, national blood, and national wisdom that the new China has a firm foothold, and the world has taken China seriously. Today, 70 years later, times have changed, the sound of weapons is gone, but the invisible smoke continues to permeate. On our way forward, there will still be an invisible “strangulation”, there will still be a difficult “Shangganling”, we still need us to fight fearlessly, to fight the beautiful and picturesque flag, to make a bloody road!
