    【422】Fall of Seoul If military is an extension of politics, then diplomacy is the most important auxiliary means of military and politics.  . Seeing the success of the Incheon landing, the Western, especially the American media, was full of jubilation. As unfamiliar Asian place names continued to be conquered in newspapers, and war reports continued to add small places with difficult pronunciation, the entire United States was filled with excitement.  An atmosphere of excitement.  Just before the Incheon landing on August 12, the foreign ministers of the United States, Britain, and France held a meeting in New York. The meeting lasted until August 18. Acheson gave a speech at the meeting, explaining to U.S. allies that they had fought the 38th Parallel.  important surname.  "Gentlemen, this is another Greece!" With a confident smile, Acheson slowly glanced at the British and French representatives.  "Stalin didn't say a word; Gromyko was making false threats; the Chinese were shouting angrily; Soviet Deputy Foreign Minister Malik told reporters who asked him whether the Soviet Union would send troops to intervene, "The opportunity has not come." "The opportunity has not come.  "Gentlemen! Even after we have successfully completed the Inchon landing, Kim Yue-sung and his army were cut off in southern North Korea to die!" At this point, Acheson curled up his mustache humorously, British diplomacy  Minister Bevin also laughed.  Acheson leaned forward slightly and said encouragingly to French Foreign Minister Schumann: "Yes, yes gentlemen, they are afraid. If I remember correctly, Napoleon said, "There is no chance. This is really the best pronoun for the weak.  "Everything that is happening now is because they are powerless to control the situation in North Korea. Under the powerful offensive of multinational forces, they can only accept the fact that there will be only one North Korea in the world from now on!" Acheson's  The speed of his speech increased: "The Soviet Union was simply not prepared to cross the Siberian steppes and fight a war in the Far East and the free world. So far, China has been less than a year away from announcing the establishment of their ridiculous Russian puppet regime. Mr.  We have to cross the 38th parallel. Yes, we have to cross the 38th parallel and stand on the side of Manchukuo. Only then can we be worthy of the military expenditures and sacrifices of our soldiers. China is trying to deny the loans they owe to the bank groups of various countries.  , This won’t work! Although they have promised to open the market, this is not enough, gentlemen, this is far from enough!” British Foreign Secretary Bevin nodded: “I agree with this proposal, and we can no longer divide North and South Korea.”  Schumann nodded heavily and said: "Yes! It's time to make the Chinese pay for their stupidity on the Indochina Peninsula!" The meeting ended successfully, and the United States got the "consensus" he wanted.  .  The focus of the Western Allies was all focused on MacArthur.  Truman and Acheson knew that at this moment they must unreservedly support MacArthur, who was struggling to advance eastward in Incheon.  By sea, a large amount of supplies and soldiers are constantly being unloaded from the Incheon Pier.  In the air, more than 70 C-54 transport aircraft brigade from Tachikawa City, Tokyo, were continuously airdropping Almond's Tenth Army.  Of course, the temporary airport in Incheon is also under emergency construction, but the temporary airport is obviously unable to complete the support for the C-54 Skymaster transport aircraft. The Busan K-1 Airport, which was previously ravaged by the C-54, has been repeatedly affected by the takeoff and landing of the C-54.  The runway was damaged and the airport had to be closed several times for emergency repairs.  This has forced the U.S. military to mobilize a large number of C-47 transport aircraft with extremely low runway requirements, which is the master version of DC-3 and Li-2 transport aircraft, to cooperate with the temporary airport runway that is about to be completed in the Incheon area.  With the support of abundant logistical personnel and material supplies, General Almond ordered the Tenth Army to wipe out the People's Army holding on to Seoul at all costs.  ??????????Next to a collapsed three-story building in Seoul, an infantry squad from the 1st Battalion and 2nd Company of the 2nd Marine Regiment of the 1st Marine Division was carrying out a clearing mission.  The squad leader, Second Lieutenant Hans, did not dare to poke his head. He leaned against the wall and shouted to the entrance of the corridor: "Buck! Buck! Can you hear me? Buck! Damn it!" Lieutenant Hans knew that the comrade who rushed in just now must be  He had died in the burst of gunfire just now.  He turned his head angrily and shouted to his men, "Damn it! Bring the flamethrower team up! Steve! Steve! Burn them! Burn these yellow-skinned pigs who are sons of bitches!" Steve is in the infantry squad.  The flamethrower operator of the flamethrowing team partnered with Peter, a teammate holding an M3 submachine gun, to form a two-person flamethrowing team.  Peter held out a hand with a submachine gun at the entrance of the corridor, and swept the shuttle wildly without looking at it.Then Steve rushed to the door, with his legs spread wide, and using the flamethrower that was still dripping burning gasoline, he immediately sprayed a fire dragon of gasoline and sticky agent into the corridor.  For a moment, flames filled the entire building pervasively, black smoke came out of the windows upstairs, and broken glass fell from the roof with thunderbolts, hitting the helmets of American soldiers.  There was a blood-curdling scream from the building.  "Fire team! Charge, charge, charge!" Following Lieutenant Hans's order, three soldiers from the infantry squad carrying M3 submachine guns rushed into the corridor that had just been burned by the flames together with Hans.  Behind them, U.S. troops carrying Garand semi-automatic rifles filed in.  Bursts of M3 machine gunfire rang out in the building, and English curses became a mess.  "It's clean!" Second Lieutenant Hans breathed a sigh of relief and leaned against the wall to take off his protective helmet. The hot weather in September on the Korean Peninsula had already made his red hair soaked.  Such battles for buildings are still taking place, but more often than not, the US military's artillery fire is destroying all standing buildings as if it is free of charge.  It has become an unwritten rule in the U.S. military that no one should shoot first.  The f4u pirates who have occupied the sky are dancing over Seoul like locusts.  They used napalm bombs to slaughter the streets, iron bombs to destroy buildings, and low-altitude dives to accurately strike the windows of buildings with rockets.  The People's Army continued to lose ground under such powerful firepower.  As the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers successfully built a pontoon bridge, the vanguard of tanks crossed the Han River. Subsequently, with the cooperation of small boats and landing craft, the infantrymen gradually crossed the Han River and established positions on the northern bank of the Han River, which had been basically bombed into white ground.  The People’s Army’s control of Seoul’s urban area was now in name only.  Most of the ten militia divisions and one infantry division in the hands of Deputy Commander Cui Yongjian have been lost, and the rest have been scattered in various mountain fortifications, basically withdrawing from the defense of the city.  Cui Yongjian's headquarters also had to retreat north.  After all, compared to Stalingrad, Seoul is too small, the houses are too low, there are only a few sewer systems, and the rest are shallow open trenches on the ground covered with cement boards, and the People's Army's firepower is also smaller than Stalingrad.  Not as good as the Soviet army at that time.  Finally, on September 10, General Almond informed MacArthur against his will that "Seoul has basically been occupied." This happened to be the expiration of the five-day deadline set by MacArthur.  Supervision Although sporadic gunfire still rang out in Seoul, and the resistance of the People's Army had not yet completely ended, MacArthur could not wait to get off the ship, and drove Rhee to Seoul with great excitement.  Under the strict armed guard of a large number of Marines, MacArthur and Syngman Rhee arrived at the Capital Building, which had been bombed with only the load-bearing frame remaining.  The U.S. military set up a temporary platform in front of the building and brought all the South Korean "citizens" that could be found in the city to sit on the ground and wait for Syngman Rhee's "Liberation Speech."  A little boy sat on the cement floor in front of the building, looking at the bullet-riddled, broken and blackened frame of the building behind the makeshift podium. He chewed the chewing gum issued by the US military, raised his head and asked his mother: "Mom,  "When will we eat?" "Child, wait a moment. When the big man finishes speaking, we will be given American bread." The child looked at the building where corpses were being carried out in horror. He closed his eyes and concentrated his thoughts.  On the bread that will be obtained after a while.  When MacArthur and Syngman Rhee arrived, the ceremony officially began.  Facing the refugees in the audience, MacArthur spoke first.  "With the blessing of God, our army, fighting under the Stars and Stripes of the United States, the symbol of mankind's greatest hope and sustenance, has liberated this ancient capital of North Korea." As soon as these words came out, the US military in the audience whistled in confusion.  , bursting into joy and laughter.  After pleasing the soldiers, MacArthur asked everyone present to recite the Lord's Prayer with him.  After a random exchange of Korean and English, no matter whether they could memorize it or not, they all got confused.  MacArthur became even more excited after completing his endorsement.  He glanced at Syngman Rhee beside him and said loudly to the American soldiers and Seoul refugees below: "Mr. President, on behalf of the American government, I am happy to return the capital of your country to you" After listening to MacArthur's foot binding  After the cloth-like prose, Rhee was so moved that he burst into tears. While wiping his tears, he grinned widely and bared his teeth. He hugged MacArthur's sleeves and shouted: "General MacArthur! We Koreans?I admire you!  We want to love you as the savior of the nation!  " After saying that, he released his hands holding MacArthur's sleeves, raised his fists in the sky and said: "Onboard!  MacArthur!  Onboard!  America!  "The disgraced refugees in the audience also started to make an inexplicable noise at this moment. Following Rhee, they shouted loudly and chaotically. Probably because the sound was too loud, a piece of glass that had been crumbling on the Capital Building behind the podium fell down and fell on the stage.  The smashing on the ground behind them made Syngman Rhee shrink in fright After the capital return ceremony, the newly formed troops from South Korea transported from Busan formed a "security regiment" and began to attack Seoul.  These soldiers, who are mainly street gangsters, reactionary landlords, officers and soldiers of the puppet Manchukuo, and officers and soldiers of the Japanese occupation period, are violent gangs. Robbery and robbery are beginning to take place in every corner of the city.  Citizens who had cooperated with the People's Army were massacred, regardless of age, and their property was confiscated. Women were humiliated and executed. More than 600 tram workers in Seoul had their limbs broken because they had welcomed the People's Army into the city.  They were nailed to erected wooden boards and stabbed to death with bayonets for public display. The prisons, police stations, cinemas, and churches in Seoul were already filled with all kinds of "red bandit" prisoners.  The screams in the prison were loud 24 hours a day, and as many as seventy or eighty people were tortured to death every day. Their bodies were dragged away by trucks and thrown into the Han River. Revolutionary elements among the peasants who had been allocated land in the countryside around Seoul were killed.  Massacres were carried out publicly, with extremely cruel methods: first gouging out the eyes, then cutting off the tongues, then cutting off the noses, and the women had to cut off their breasts. The masses were brutally concocted by the "security team" who rolled in the mud one by one.  The "human sticks" were trembling with fear and dared not speak out when they were angry. In order to provide "logistics" for the US military, Syngman Rhee's security team arrested 300 women at once and sent them to express condolences.  Over Seoul, the devil is raging here, and the human surname and conscience have become a joke. The wheel of time of the Korean nation has returned to the barbaric Japanese occupation period, and the second hand of the advancement of human civilization has begun to reverse in Seoul. The domestic media in the United States is overwhelming, and they are all talking about it.  MacArthur's unparalleled praise made him a great hero in the eyes of Americans. When interviewed by reporters, Rhee yelled: "We must advance to the Manchurian border!"  Until there is not a single enemy soldier left in our country!  We won't stand still!  "Senate Republican Whip William Nolan shouted: "If you don't pursue and attack the North Koreans, you are appeasing the party donors!  Resolutely destroy this communist satellite state!  "At this moment, Truman ordered MacArthur to cross the 38th line! ————————————————————————————————————————————————————— I sincerely thank Brother Feilong.
