They got ambushed by forces they did not know were in the AO. They fought their way out and in doing so destroyed half a dozen Chinese divisions and inflicted severe casualties on half a dozen more. Leaving the Chinese so exhausted and shot-out that they were unable to pursue UN forces.

The entire Chinese thesis got blown out the water. Pun intended.

A good demonstration of how dangerous it is to drink your own Kool Aid.

>>62891344
Dude, that Sounds like blatant propaganda. It never addresses the US military's strengths or even how to attack it's weaknesses. For example.
>Their infantrymen are weak, afraid to die, and have no courage to attack or defend.
Are soldiers supposed to be suicidal? Glorifying death is what you do when you're preparing the men for severe casualties. Standard fair when you're throwing lives into the meatgrinder.
>Without the use of their mortars, they become completely lost.
>They become dazed and completely demoralized.
Okay...how do you get rid of the mortars? They're indirect fire weapons so bare minimum they're concealed behind a hill. Does the PLA have air superiority? The second line is also redundant like if someone was padding an essay with extra lines.
>They are afraid when the rear is cut off.
>When transportation comes to a standstill, the infantry loses the will to fight
Again, this is normal. Having your supply lines severed means you're on a time limit before the food and ammo runs out. The bigger your army is the more logistics it needs but logistics isn't glorious so propaganda tends to ignore it.
>>
>>62891571
>That's how the germans won WW2
Except this is like if the Soviets were only barely able to push Germany out of the Soviet Union proper while still taking horrendous casualties doing so, managed to end the war with slightly less territory than when it started, and Nazi Germany still existed today. In that case I'd definitely say the Germans won.

It's not entirely inaccurate, just presents the information in a way that disregards US doctrine and assumes their own to be superior.
There's a reason the Chinese took disproportional levels of casualties in the war, and why they were pushed back out of the south, and a good part of that reason is the exact mentality that colors this assessment.

America got its ass kicked in maneuver warfare first by the norks and then by the chinks. It was only when the front lines became so short that maneuver warfare turned into siege warfare that the americans could recover due to their massive superiority in artillery, air and mechanization.

>No italian front
>No western front
>No lend lease
>No allied carpet bombings
Any of the above and more likely a few of them combined might have Unironically meant the soviets would probably have been stopped in their tracks around bagration due to starvation, lack of manpower, krauts having actual reserve lines to enact defense in depth, less equipment since they can't produce as many tanks and fuel. Would this have meant Tranny New Order in eastern europe? Unlikely but it would have meant nazis would have decimated the soviets while still gaining ground in the low intensity conflict/truce that would have to be signed

Occupied states of the soviet union bar the baltics have been gunned down so hard they still have an abundance of women in the country, generations of slavs have been slaughtered and cities burnt

sounds like typical maoist military doctrine. it's always presumed that the enemy will have superior firepower, so they try to offset this with superior morale and infiltration tactics. The idea is to train soldiers to be capable of living off the land for prolonged periods of time while giving them relatively light equipment. This way, they can pierce enemy lines and subsist behind them without need for resupply, allowing them to reek havoc on communications, logistics, and morale. The fundamental problem with this is that it's an insurgency strategy being utilized in a conventional war. Sending hordes of chinks with Mosins against enemy lines doesn't work if they have entrenched positions, superior firepower, good logistics, and control over their own territory. This is why this strategy has been defeated nearly every time it was employed by China except for a few noticeable exceptions (such as the Sino-Indian War where they actually had superior firepower, and their initial involvement in the Korean War where MacArthur was being a dumb-ass). In most other situations, such as their invasion of Vietnam, and their failed offensives in the Korean War, their strategy proved futile.

But they managed to kick the USA out of North Korea

Claiming that the US won Korea is as stupid as staying the Chinese won it. It was a nearly perfect status quo ante bellum, both sides ended up at nearly the same place they started at. China's manpower advantage was enough to overcome America's ability to get North Korea back. It was rather naive for the Americans to expect they wouldn't be willing to lose that much as not to have a US aligned state on their border. However to claim that losing hundreds of thousands lost in human wages proves the potency of the Zhongguo split ignores why such a strategy was even possible. America had retarded post WW2 doctrine that relied on air power, with no precision capability, was fighting from across the Pacific and was in the middle of disarmament when the war began. These were ideal conditions, and attempting something similar even a couple years later would have been a terrible idea. Claiming either sidw lost on a spiritual level ignores the fact that all wars are fought with mismatched capabilities and expectations. The only true indicator of success or failure is what countries can take away from a war.

However, as a geostrategic maneuver, Korea was a tremendous failure on the part of the Soviets and Chinese. The entire point of the war was to force the US out of Korea and therefore weaken their status across Asia. America still holds a potent bastion of influnce right on China's doorstep. South Korea's media, economic success and status as a functional democracy are all serious threats to the CCP'S internal legitimacy. While it is a highly beneficial location for US conventional and nuclear deterrents.

Tldr;
It was a draw, but the prewar status quo was beneficial to America

that's covered by the "Douglas MacArthur being a dumbass" exception.

wtf are you talking about pseud? The UN Resolution was to send the Norks back to the 38th which they did. Not exactly on the line but South Korea has more territory north of it than North Korea has south of it.

The Nork goal was to recapture the south which they didn't. The communists couldn't even claim a k/d win like the US does with Vietnam even though that war was a loss for the US in terms of overall goals.

Yes, it was indeed an implessive 5D chess move to throw away their most veteran troops before they could use them to take Taiwan, but at least it ensured that they had plenty of fresh indoctrinated maoist retards to throw into the meat grinder against Vietnam later.

The Japanese capture of the Philippines is far more humiliating and resulted in large numbers of American troops being outright captured, not just forced to retreat, including a a large amount of generals.

So what you're saying is that the US military was so utterly incompetent and dogshit, they managed to somehow miss all these dozens and dozens of chinese divisions preparing for weeks to attack them, and then completely failed to hold their ground despite inflicting all these supposed casualties? But it doesn't count because the Chinese only chased them all the way down to south of Seoul, instead of outright overrunning and annihilating them?

Wow, that is some cope alright.

To be fair Peng Dehuai was one of the GOATs of infantry warfare, and was hugely successful in the Chinese fight against the Japanese. He maneuvered his armies only on darkness and had everyone camp camouflaged and stay still in daylight. And he got his men to move with incredible speed on foot through mountainous, sub zero terrain. Even the warnings severely underestimated the size of the attack.

Yes, the US army is "not familiar with" human wave tactics. What a devastating indictment.

Literally the only reason a Chinaman ever made it over the Yalu is because the US imposed a bunch of absurd restrictions on itself, prohibiting striking any targets in China being the most stupid. In 1950 there were a grand total of TWO rail lines connecting the East and West of China, and one of them is ON THE FUCKING COAST.

Victory in Korea was intentionally thrown away, as in Vietnam, as in Iraq, as in Afghanistan. All intentional, all Democrats, the pain is the point.

You're a fucking retard. Having air ops is not "opening a front", you don't need to put a single boot on China to cripple their railways.

>The US knew better than Japan.
Japan WON the land war. They successfully subjugated the Chinese and checked the Russians to a peace. What the fuck are you talking about?

In fact they're the ones who proved my exact point; during the 19th and 20th century, land wars were won and lost by rail infrastructure. There were two arteries by which 80% of the Chinese economy contributed to the war effort in Korea, and one of them is on the coast.

The map wasn't for decoration. Here, I made it easier for you. Look at the blue circle, if you don't know what the color blue looks like, google image search "blue". If you don't know what a circle is, tie rope around your neck and jump off an overpass.

You are working on an incredible assumption that militaries would just sit there and twiddle their thumbs. You don't just bomb it once, they're going to repair it. You need a plan to establish air superiority over China and keep hitting it. Then you need to keep naval superiority for your own supply lines. Then you need to protect your own air bases from ground attack.

>Japan won
Actually understand what happened. The Japanese won initial victories in conquering coastal areas. China drew them into the heartlands, whittling away at their supply lines and men with guerilla warfare. In the second half of the war they had lost the initiative and were losing battle after battle. By the time Japan surrendered china had retaken Guangxi, which was their last major stronghold.

so weak that they broke out

that the US uses combined arms, thats called a normal army

>They specialize in day fighting.
most armies do

>They are not familiar with night fighting or hand to hand combat.
did they imagine all the night combat in the pacific front?
did the germans only attack at night?

>If defeated, they have no orderly formation.
the defeated cavalry division managed to break out, so clearly they were still ordered

>Without the use of their mortars, they become completely lost.
what does this even mean?
did the chinese not use mortars?


>When transportation comes to a standstill, the infantry loses the will to fight."
another context-less statement
the chinese were unable to press attacks without their own transports, with the chinese attempts to push past the 38th failing because their own logistics were falling apart

>Is this assesment correct about the state of the US military back then or even today?:
no
or they are meaningless, like saying an army relied on its airpower and artillery
thats a strange statement, unless the chinese only believe in infantry rushes

Heaven forbid you task more than one strike to preventing THE VAST MAJORITY OF ALL MANPOWER AND SUPPLIES from moving through a comically vulnerable artery. Shut the fuck up you stupid fucking asshole, no, that rail link was not defensible. It just was not, railways are the least defensible infrastructure there is owing purely to their shape. China didn't have a system of highways, it didn't have enough AA to saturate hundreds of miles of coastline. The 50s was actually a good time to be a pilot, you would probably only be downed by another pilot, AA weapons technology was lagging.

You are making a category error here. Railways are so vulnerable that a US submarine crew blew a Japanese one up, for the fun of it, without any orders to do so.

>In the second half of the war
You mean the part where China had unlimited supply from, and operational cooperation with, the allies?

Anyway, I put the big blue circle there in the hopes that you would notice the big blue area which partially filled it called the OCEAN. It's made of WATER. Aircraft travel through something called "air". We are not discussing a land war in the Chinese heartlands, we're discussing an Achilles heel which the American-led UN forces IMPOSED UPON THEMSELVES a duty not to exploit.

This is not a debate, the USAF didn't hold back because they thought it couldn't be done, they held back because the White House limited their operations to Korea.

That's only because China has a lot of dudes and can afford to lose them. If they had a small population like the US, they would be more careful, too, and would have similar losses.
