Chapter 649: Majestic, high-spirited
The Goryeo War, also known as the War of Resistance against Rice and Aid Sticks, was an extremely important war in the modern history of China.
In a sense, the Goryeo War was as important as the Liberation War that had just ended, the latter achieved the basic reunification of the country, while the former built an external peaceful environment for China to this day, ensuring the peaceful development of the country for so many years.
Naturally, there are such important war history textbooks, and everyone has studied and knows about it. However, as everyone knows, there is not much content in the book about this war, and even some textbooks are only a page in an elective textbook, and there is less than a thin page.
Therefore, many people actually don't know enough about this war, and in their consciousness, there are probably only superficial images such as "defeated the devils of the United States", "sacrificed many people", "heroic volunteer soldiers", "who is the cutest person", or vague terms such as "38th parallel", "Shangganling", "MiG corridor" and so on.
Many people don't even know exactly how this war happened and why China entered the war.
In fact, it is very simple to say, during World War II, the Goryeo Peninsula was liberated, but it was liberated by two countries, a Soviet, the steel torrent from north to south, a rice country, the Marines from south to north, because they were both allies at that time, so the two sides did not fight after they met, but shook hands after liberating the whole Goryeo Peninsula, and took the 38th parallel roughly formulated by a staff officer of the Mi Army as the demarcation, and the two sides each controlled half of the Goryeo territory, and decided to wait until the end of the war, and then discuss what to do with the Goryeo Peninsula, How to be independent, how to build a state.
At that time, the relationship between the two sides was still relatively harmonious, Lao Maozi invited the soldiers of the United States to drink vodka, and the soldiers of the United States invited the soldiers of the United States to dance ballroom dancing in their military camps, hooked shoulders and backs, and accepted the service of the Goryeo people at that time, which was very happy.
After the end of World War II, the two sides began to formally discuss the Goryeo issue, but the Soviets wanted to establish a communist state, and the United States wanted to establish a democratic state.
The negotiations did not lead to the old practice, and the Goryeo Peninsula was left to the development of the Goryeo Peninsula on its own, and the two sides provided their own assistance, in a similar pattern to East and West Germany, except that the Berlin Wall was not built.
However, the leader surnamed Jin in Beibang had great ambitions and a desire for reunification, and after receiving military assistance from the Soviet 150 planes, six infantry divisions, and two mechanized divisions, he was unwilling to go down like West Germany, and without reporting to the two countries after the clear opposition of China and the acquiescence of the Soviet side's euphemistic refusal, he suddenly launched an attack on the Nanbang side on June 25, 1950.
Because the land reform has been completed on the North Stick side, the soldiers have been allocated land, the fighting enthusiasm is high, the will to fight is firm, and the weapons and equipment are not bad, so the North Stick army has been like a bamboo, and the South Stick Army has been defeated and retreated, almost retreating to the edge of the sea.
At this time, the big guy behind the South Stick is not happy, what do you mean? Cut it without saying hello? Soviet, you still don't care about your little brother? How does he do things? I, the world's most powerful country, don't want to lose face?
The matter has come to this point, and so many younger brothers of the socialist camp around them are watching, and the Soviets, as the big guys, naturally can't admit it, so they have to say: Let the younger brothers solve the affairs of the little brothers by themselves, and we adults should not interfere.
The United States must be unwilling, it's impossible not to meddle, it's impossible not to meddle in this life! Nan Bang is my little brother, worship the dock, and I will cover it! No one can touch him!
Then, taking advantage of the absence of the Soviet representatives, he quickly passed a resolution on sending troops to intervene in Lian Guoguang, and sent a well-known five-star general to personally intervene.
The five-star general has extraordinary natural strength and unique vision, an unexpected landing on Incheon by the North Stick, water, land and air together, attacking the North Stick Army, under the all-round three-dimensional strike, the North Stick plane was emptied, the tank was blown up, and then the army was defeated like a mountain, all the way to the north, the Mi Army also took advantage of the victory to pursue, killing and killing, and chased straight to the bank of the Yalu River.
As for why Huaguo sent troops, there are two main reasons.
First, on the second day after the North Stick Army sent troops to attack the South Stick, before the Mi Army could personally end the battle, the Seventh Aircraft Carrier Fleet of the Mi Army sailed out of Fuso Tokyo Bay as soon as possible, went all the way south, and blocked the Huaguo Treasure Island Strait.
In addition to striving to establish governments at all levels and restore people's production as soon as possible, the main thing was to mobilize troops and prepare for the second Kinmen landing, "chasing the poor with the remaining bravery," liberating the treasure island, and unifying the whole of China.
Needless to say, as far as the poor navy composed of a dozen gunboats and a few small patrol ships in China at that time wanted to break through the blockade and attack the treasure island, it was undoubtedly a fool's dream.
And there is no doubt that the Soviets' North Sea Fleet, even if they want to help, it will be difficult to break through the blockade of the Bering Strait and go south to help in the war, and the dream of China's reunification will be completely cut off by this time.
Later, everyone also knew that after the end of the Goryeo War, the seventh aircraft carrier fleet of the United States was stationed in Fuso Okinawa, which was only more than two hours away from the treasure island.
Second, the three eastern provinces are threatened.
The Mi army defeated the North Stick at once, and naturally looked down on them, and in the same way, they did not take Huaguo to heart, and when the Mi planes chased to the Yalu River, there was no sign of turning their heads, and many reconnaissance planes flew directly into the northeast of China and began reconnaissance activities, and even occasionally a few bombers dropped bombs and blew up several small villages on this side of the Yalu River.
They are all small villages, and there are not many people killed in the bombing, only dozens, but the nature is different, this is a clear cross-border and naked act of aggression!
Moreover, at that time, the three eastern provinces were different from the three black provinces that were now "unable to invest in Shanhaiguan", and at that time they were the eldest sons of the republic, where there were a large number of factories left by the Fuso people, neatly planned roads, water and electricity networks, and various types of heavy industry bases that were being formed with the assistance of the Soviets, which were the largest, and even the only ones, and the heavy industry base was the foundation for China's evolution from a traditional agricultural country to an industrial country, and it was the heart of the country.
Now you can blow up the small village, and then there is only one Nambang left in Goryeo, is it possible to bomb our city? Our factory? Will your army cross the Yalu River and invade us? Will the three eastern provinces of China become a gladiatorial arena for the competition between the socialist camp and the capitalist camp?
This is a very good thing, and at that time, when the polarities of the post-war world were gradually becoming clear, no one dared to say that the above might not have happened.
The old hates the new hatred, and Huaguo has only one choice, that is, to send troops, resist rice and aid the stick, and defend the country.
……
There used to be a set of documentaries called "The Rise of Great Powers", in which there is a point of view that if a country wants to become a great power and become a great power, it must step on the corpse of another old power and use a war in which the weak defeat the strong to show the whole world its strength and establish the country's position among the great powers.
Just like the War of Independence was to the United States, the Franco-Prussian War was to Germany, and the Russo-Japanese War was to Fuso...... In the same way, it was also the Goryeo War against Hwa.
At that time, the war in China was suspended, the country was initially decided, government organizations at all levels were still being established, there were still many horse bandits and bandits roaring in the woods in some places, and the southwest and other places had not yet been completely pacified, and troops were still being used in remote areas...... It is the time when all kinds of waste are prosperous, money is used everywhere, and the poorest are at their worst.
And its opponent was the world's largest power, the largest capitalist country, the world's largest industrial country, and the "savior" of World War II: the United States. And it leads, by England, France, Australia, Old Zealand, Maple Leaf Country, Windmill Country, Chocolate Country, Thousand Castle Country, Cradle Country of Western Civilization, Take You to the Romantic Country, Sister Lumbia, Siam, Monkey Country, Glory Years Country, Africa's first military power, a total of 15 countries composed of United Nations Army.
It's like a skinny patient recovering from a serious illness facing a World Champion boxer and his fifteen younger brothers.
This is a crushing war that everyone looks at, and the result is ...... It was a tie.
Yes, a tie. Although some people on both sides claim that their side is the victorious side, for example, China claims to have "successfully suspended the aggression of Minian imperialism against Korea", and Mi has claimed to have "successfully curbed the expansion of communist forces in East Asia", but in fact, neither side has achieved its ultimate goal, but both sides understand that they can no longer achieve their goals, so they give up continuing the war and choose to shelve negotiations.
So what is the ultimate goal of both sides? For Huaguo, it is to cross the 38th parallel, liberate the entire Goryeo Peninsula, let there be only one northern stick in the world, and completely remove the threat of the three eastern provinces. For the United States, it has also crossed the 38th parallel, and the light of democracy shines on the entire Goryeo Peninsula, making there only one southern stick in the world, and making this long and narrow peninsula a bridgehead for the disintegration of the socialist camp.
As a result, it is well known that neither side achieved its goal, and the Goryeo Peninsula was divided into two countries, the North and the South, by a 38th parallel that had no geographical basis, no historical reason, and no acceptance.
Many times, a draw may not be meaningless, for example, you are recognized as the world's No. 1 laner, and you can beat all the other lanes, but as long as I can make up for the line when I don't lag behind, I don't get killed by you alone, I don't rub the blood of the tower, I hold you back, and I don't let you support other roads, so that the two of us have been disappearing in the director's footage...... Well, I'm also the number one top order in the world.
The Chinese Volunteers repelled the Mi people, drove them back to the south of the 38th parallel, and even blocked their many counterattacks in a row, keeping them out of the 38th parallel, which is enough to prove their strength.
Since we can draw with the big guy of the United States, then those of you who are his little brother have to go home and weigh it yourself, and if you really fight, will you be my opponent.
This is also the reason why, in the sixty or seventy years after the end of the Korean War, except for two countries whose minds were really unclear, the vast majority of other countries did not dare to lightly speak of military threats against China.
It's just that this war, which should have made us Chinese people very proud, except for the "Shangganling" movie a long time ago, is rarely mentioned in the mainstream media now, and we rarely see film and television dramas about this war.
The reason is understandable, in order to curry favor with the United States and maintain the relationship between the two countries, we should not slap people in the face and embarrass people, so as to seek a peaceful development environment.
In fact, we have not produced TV series with related themes, for example, once in the past, the United States held a grand celebration of the victory of the Goryeo War, claiming to "defeat the Soviet Union and China", "effectively curb the expansion of the socialist camp" and so on, spread to the country, many people found the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, people can do it, why can't we do it?
Then the Ministry of Foreign Affairs relented, and a film and television company spent a huge amount of money to shoot a 30-episode "Goryeo War" TV series, which was very well-made, but when it was about to be broadcast on a large scale, as we all know, the 911 incident happened.
This one...... At this critical point in time, although everyone is very happy, you can't sprinkle salt on other people's wounds, right, it's not authentic, this TV series has to be postponed.
After that, there was a series of Olympics, World Expos, and other reasons, even if the Military Commission planned to broadcast it on the 60th anniversary of the anti-rice aid stick in 2010, it was also vetoed by the above, and the film has been hidden until now and has not been released.
Of course, there are also less tragic ones, such as the 38-episode "38th Line" launched in 2016, a big production of 20 million, although there are not many channels broadcast, and most of them are only released once, but fortunately, it was successfully launched.
It's just that the content of this drama is a little biased, and a lot of the content is put on the love triangle between the hero hero and the car squad leader, as well as the female nurse and heroine of the field hospital, and there is less content to describe the war positively, and the enemy focuses on the almost inconsequential Nanbang troops in this war, and there are very few descriptions of the people of the United States, very limited, I have to say, it is a pity.
However, this problem is not difficult for Li Ang, he is the creator of the virtual reality world, there is no **** on his head, and there is no Ministry of Foreign Affairs, he can do whatever game he wants, and he can do whatever theme he wants.
Moreover, now that the Huami trade war is in full swing, it is the time when such a work is needed to be exciting.
In fact, there are also domestic games with the theme of anti-rice aid sticks, which is the "Decisive Battle Goryeo" developed by Yinshanju Company, released in 1999, is a turn-based war chess strategy game, it is still very fun, and there are two endings, you can choose to negotiate with the 38th line, or you can choose to fight to the end.
Also, it's a first-person shooter online game called "Re-Battle" that few people have played, and it died during the test, so I won't say much about it here.
For the rest, there is none.
Although it is a sensitive subject, in Leon's opinion, this game is still very easy to do, because it has been very clearly divided into two camps, one is the socialist camp composed of the volunteer army that fights the main force, the Soviet that provides assistance, and the North Stick Army that assists the operation, and the other is the capitalist camp led by the United Nations Army.
Players of socialist nationality such as Huaguo, the former Soviet Union State, and the Northern Stick can only choose the socialist camp, while players from other countries can only choose the capitalist camp.
At that time, everyone will use the weapons and equipment of the time to fight the Goryeo War again on that map where the terrain is narrow enough.
Of course, it's not up to the player to fight randomly, the game will be in accordance with historical facts, the scene at the time will be restored, as well as the characters, and the behavior of these characters will be restored, after the player enters the game, he will randomly replace one of the characters, and then play the game freely, and the rest of the characters that have not been replaced will be operated by the artificial intelligence NPC according to his original actions.
In this way, players can experience the most real battlefield at that time, and see how the people at that time fought this war.
In fact, Leon has also considered bringing the player's own superpowers into the game before, and both sides have a large number of superpower fighters who will fight each other on the battlefield, creating a sci-fi version of World War II atmosphere like in "Captain 1" to increase playability.
This is a good note, but Leon thought about it for a while, whether he still had this plan, in this world, some things are destined not to be desecrated, and the volunteer soldiers were full of enthusiasm back then, and they should not be ridiculed wantonly in the player's superpower play.
When it's time to be serious, you should be serious.
Otherwise, how would the young people of today know how majestic and high-spirited the volunteer soldiers who were as young as them were back then?
