After three battles, with the cooperation of the Korean People's Army, the Volunteers won three battles and three victories, and pushed back the "United **" from the Yalu River to the vicinity of the 37th parallel. The occupation of Seoul by the Volunteers was undoubtedly a major event in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, and was a symbol of the brilliant victory of the Volunteers. When the news of the victory reached the country, it immediately caused a huge sensation, and firecrackers and fireworks continued all night long. The morale of the whole people has reached its peak! However, due to the continuous fighting, the troops were very tired, there was no reinforcement, and the material supply in logistics was obviously insufficient. As a result, the Chinese and North Korean forces began to recuperate on January 8, 1951, and planned to launch a spring offensive in March.

"Comrade, can you give me more fried noodles?" Shi Chen carried a few bags of dry food made of linen cloth in his hand and said to the logistics soldiers who distributed the dry food to them. At that time, chow mein had already appeared in the marching ranks of the volunteer army. The fried noodles in the dry food bag are made by stir-frying wheat and corn together and adding salt.

The logistics soldier said: "I'm really sorry, comrade, the fried noodles are all distributed according to demand." ”

"But these fried noodles are too few to eat for a few days!" Shi Chen said.

"If you want to eat well, you can ask Mei Guo Lao for it! Truman is our biggest logistical soldier. Haha," the logistician said with a smile.

"You comrade is really good at making jokes, and the distant water can't quench your thirst." Shi Chen also replied with a smile.

The logistician said: "This comrade, I know that you are very tired and hard in fighting, but it is not easy for us either. Although the Americans have been retreating, the planes in the sky have never stopped. Since the beginning of your war in Korea, how many places have this train track been blown up, and after the bombing is completed, it will be repaired and then blown up. Trains and cars alternately run. I just sent these fried noodles over, and there are still many volunteer comrades who can't even eat fried noodles! Let's all go ahead and do it first. ”

"Well, it seems that if you want to eat canned food, you can only rely on seizure." Shi Chen said as he lifted the bags of dry food that were not too full.

"Yes, comrade. Turn hunger into motivation! Canned goods, chocolate, bread, and milk were all stored in the enemy's storehouse. ”

"Zhongzhongzhong, if you don't give it, you won't give it, don't say so many useless words." After speaking, Shi Chen turned around with the bag of dry food and left. When Shi Chen walked through the line of volunteers lining up to receive fried noodles, he heard some comrades chatting on the side.

"Say, how long are we going to rest?" A volunteer soldier {hereinafter referred to as Soldier A} said.

"Why don't you rest until the beginning of spring." Another volunteer (hereinafter referred to as Soldier B) said.

Warrior A said, "I don't think so, maybe there will be a new mission at some point." ”

Soldier B then asked, "Are there any people in your class who have froze to death?" ”

Soldier A said: "There are people in our squad who starved to death, and there were no people who froze to death, but many people were frostbitten. ”

Soldier B said: "There are no starvation deaths in our class, but there are many people who freeze to death, and there are many frostbite. ”

Warrior A said, "Do you know? A few days ago, I heard that there were people from the 20th Army, when they were fighting an ambush. An entire company of people froze to death. ”

Warrior B said, "I've heard about this too. North Korea is really cold this year! ”

Warrior A said, "Yes, it's really cold. ”

Shi Chen heard the conversation between the two of them, which reminded him of Xiao Wu. That young warrior, at such a young age, froze to death before he had even married his daughter-in-law.

Shi Chen carried a few bags of dry food and returned to the barracks of the first class. Distributed the chow mein to the hands of each warrior.

In life, there will always be distractions because of face disputes. The country is also, precisely because of the defeat in the first three battles by the Chinese Volunteer Army's "joint **", in order to redeem the impact of the defeat, taking advantage of the extension of the Volunteer Army's battle line, the exhaustion of the troops, and the difficulty of supply, in late January 1951, concentrated 16 divisions, 3 brigades with a total of 230,000 troops, ready to launch a large-scale fan gong.

On the Eastern Front, 8 divisions concentrated in the "United **" launched an offensive from Wonju and Mureung areas to Topyeong-ri and Hoengseong from January 31, 1951. On the Western Front, the main force was the six divisions of the US 1st and 9th armies, and the main assault was carried out on Seoul.

When the "United **" launched a large-scale offensive, the Chinese and North Korean troops stopped resting and turned to defensive operations on January 27, 1951. The Volunteer Army decided to use the 38th and 50th armies to defend on the Western Front to resist the enemy's attack; With the 39th, 42nd, and 66th armies, in coordination with the Korean People's Army, they carried out a counter-assault on the "joint **" and crushed its offensive.

In view of the difficulties of the troops at that time and the fact that the war would be protracted, Commander Peng, in agreement with the Korean People's Army, adopted the policy of striving to halt the enemy's advance, steadily opening up the situation of the war, stepping up preparations in all aspects, and still making long-term and arduous plans.

Commander Peng's idea was: to organize a defense on the Western Front with a force and contain the main offensive group of the "United **"; Retreat in a planned way on the Eastern Front, and when the situation of the "United **" Division is prominent and the flanks are exposed, concentrate the main forces to carry out counterattacks, and threaten the enemy's main offensive group on the Western Front from the flank, so as to shake its momentum and stop its offensive. At this time, the first-line troops of the Volunteer Army had more than 210,000 men in six armies, and the Korean People's Army had more than 70,000 troops in three corps.

The specific deployment is as follows: Han Xianchu, deputy commander of the Volunteer Army, commanded the 38th and 50th armies and the 1st Army Corps of the People's Army {hereinafter referred to as the Han Group} to organize defense on the 68-kilometer section north of Gimpo, Incheon, and Nomuri-ri to Yeoju to resist the attack of the "United **" in the direction of Seoul; The 39th, 40th, 42nd, and 66th armies (hereinafter referred to as the Deng Group) commanded by Deng Hua, deputy commander of the Volunteer Army, and with the cooperation of the 2nd, 3rd, and 5th Army Corps (hereinafter referred to as the Jin Group) under the command of Jin Xiong, commander of the front command of the People's Army, sought opportunities to carry out counterattacks in the Hengcheng area of the Eastern Front.

On the Western Front, the US forces attacked in multiple directions every day with the support of a large number of tanks, aircraft, and artillery. The volunteer army located on the defense of this line, relying on the temporary construction of field fortifications, stubbornly held every key point, and the battle was extremely fierce. The Deng Group of the Volunteer Army and the Jin Group of the People's Army each used a part of their troops to block the attack and lure the enemy into penetration. At the same time, the main forces of the Deng group were rapidly advancing from Gaoyang, Dongdoucheon-ri, Jinhua area to Yangdewon-ri and the area south of Hongcheon, preparing to counterattack.

Under the conditions of severe cold weather and lack of food and ammunition, the volunteers persisted in fighting with a handful of fried noodles and a handful of snow. During the day, there was bombardment by the planes and artillery of the US ** team, and at night there was the invasion of howling cold winds, but this still could not beat the strong perseverance of the volunteers. They held out south of the Han River for more than 10 days, and then received orders from their superiors to move to the north bank.

On February 6, the 40th Army set out on the first day of the Lunar New Year, preparing to participate in the Hengcheng counterattack of four campaigns and serving as the main frontal attack......
