In a few moments, the Soviets had finished eating, and they pulled out the cigarettes they had brought from their country in their pockets and smoked them. Shi Chen and the others also finished eating, and then went back to their outpost.

The afternoon was sunny and the wind was beautiful, and the sea breeze was blowing on the cheeks. The clouds will vaguely cover the sun, and the afterglow of the sun will sway down in the gaps in the clouds. If there were no wars, it would have been a very beautiful tourist destination.

Shi Chen returned to the position, looking into the distance at the sea and the seagulls flying in the sky from time to time. He had just finished lunch, so he wanted to take a nap. But because he had to stand guard, he needed to be strictly tense, so he rubbed his eyes and stared at the sea level with his spirit. Suddenly, such a group of people walked into Shi Chen's tired sight, and Shi Chen rubbed his eyes and looked at the group of people.

It was a queue of the Korean People's Army, all dressed in earth-gray uniforms, with high-brimmed bowler hats and carrying old-fashioned walking qiang. There was only about one squad of people, and they lined up and patrolled along the coastline.

When Shi Chen saw that it was friendly troops coming to patrol, he raised his arm and beckoned to them, and shouted affectionately: "An Ning Ha Saiyou!" {??, Korean "Hello"}

The leader of the queue on the opposite side also raised his hand and beckoned to Shi Chen. He also shouted, "??! After that, the people in the queue all raised their arms and beckoned to Shi Chen: "??! ”

When it comes to the North Korean army, there is a lot to say. The Korean People's Army is a rather peculiar army because it is a combination of the military systems of three countries, the Soviet Union, Japan, and China.

As the newly born She Hui Zhu Yi country at that time, the Soviet Union was the first to have the greatest influence on North Korea, and the Soviet Union was the "big brother" of almost all She Hui Zhu Yi countries. At the same time, many of the Korean People's Army were Soviet-Korean nationals who had returned from the Soviet Union, and most of them had participated in World War II and had rich combat experience. In the course of the reorganization and training of the former KPA units, more than 3,000 Soviet advisers were sent to units below the company level to train KPA officers and men. Moreover, judging from the tactics of the Korean People's Army, we can also see the strong Soviet style and the idea of "artillery fire first". Its combat tactics are basically the same as those of the Soviet army, and they generally pay great attention to the use of artillery, and like to concentrate tank and armored forces to carry out key assaults on the enemy, and combine infantry and artillery with high-speed attacks. In June 1950, the Korean People's Army unit that crossed the 38th parallel followed this style of warfare.

The second most influential is Japan. The Korean People's Army still bears the deep imprint of the old Japanese Army, mainly because, according to the division of the old Japanese army, the north of the 38th parallel is the Kwantung military defense area, and the south of the 38th parallel is the Japanese domestic military defense area. In the defense zone of the Kwantung Army, young Koreans over the age of 16 living in northeastern China and North Korea have to concentrate on military training just like Japanese teenagers...... Then you can go home in ten days, but you have to practice full army infantry training, and you will have to repeat it every year after that.

During World War II, the Japanese army conscripted a large number of soldiers and men from all over the Korean Peninsula. When it comes to the Chinese battlefield, it has become what we commonly call the "two devils". This imperceptibly injected a strong Japanese style into the Korean army, and when fighting, it liked to attack, paid attention to the tactics of breaking through the encirclement on both flanks, dared to use small and broad, dared to fight when encountering the enemy, and had a very prominent ability to march on foot.

The Japanese army also left another imprint, that is, although the establishment system of the People's Army is Soviet-style, the establishment titles at all levels are typical Japanese names. For example, corps, divisions, brigades, wings, brigades, squadrons, squads, and so on. This is the case in both the North Korean and South Korean armies.

Both the Soviet army and the Japanese army are units that pay great attention to the discipline of the upper and lower levels, so the Korean People's Army also pays special attention to discipline, especially the discipline of the upper and lower levels is very strict, and the subordinates must pay absolute obedience to their superiors. In addition, the establishment, equipment, training, and tactics of the Korean People's Army were all established in accordance with the Soviet model, and even the regulations were translated into the Soviet military regulations, and special attention was paid to their political education.

The two styles of the Soviet Army and the Japanese Army jointly shaped the Korean People's Army's strict hierarchical and high-pressure management style, resulting in the KPA being more than brave in combat, but obviously lacking flexibility, and sometimes even looked down on the mobile and flexible combat style of the Volunteer Army, believing that it was a "guerrilla habit". It is inconceivable that when fighting guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines, it is inconceivable to carry out a night attack with the shouting of "Ula" charging like the Soviets.

However, among the Korean People's Army, there are many Korean troops from China, and they are the main divisions of the People's Liberation Army's four fields, and they are brave and tenacious in combat, especially good at continuous combat, and have become the core force of the People's Army. However, after the US landing at Incheon, the core strength of the KPA was basically consumed, its combat effectiveness was rapidly weakened, and it was not good at resisting one by one.

In general, at the outbreak of war in June 1950, the composition of the Korean People's Army was as follows: its 1st Division was composed mainly of Korean officers returning from the Soviet Union, and more than a third of its soldiers were Korean soldiers returning from China. In contrast, almost all the officers and non-commissioned officers of the 2nd Division returned from China, but the soldiers were civilians who had been drafted in Korea.

Throughout the Korean War, the Korean People's Army was consistently stronger than the South Korean Army. In the early days of the war, the KPA fought five campaigns, with serious attrition of forces. Of course, after the Volunteers entered Korea, the Korean People's Army was basically mainly responsible for the first-line strategic defense of the East Coast and Changjin Lake, while the People's Army did not have many defensive forces on the West Coast, and the defense of the West Coast and the offensive and defense of the main battlefields were all undertaken by the Volunteers. Objectively speaking, after the Volunteer Army entered the DPRK, the opponents of the "United **" had a qualitative change. The main opponent is North Korea, which has evolved into China, and several of its major major battles have been fought against the Volunteer Army. The People's Army has lost a lot of performance stages on the battlefield, but there are still some wonderful examples, and it has also participated in five battles with the Volunteers and the subsequent tug-of-war, strategic defensive operations, and so on.

Shi Chen watched this group of North Korean soldiers and watched them slowly walk towards the coastline to the north. Under the sun, their backs form a beautiful picture with the communication line of the sea and land.
