Detailed explanation-1: -Following setbacks sustained by the Korean People’s Army and the crossing of the 38th parallel by the United Nations Command led by the United States Armed Forces, in October 1950 Chinese forces secretly crossed into North Korea in response to security concern of a possible U.S. invasion of Chinese territory.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Korean war has resulted in the deployment of major portions of Communist China’s best military forces in Korea and/or Manchuria. Supply requirements of the war are taxing heavily Communist China’s limited logistic capabilities.
Detailed explanation-3: -In late October 1950, the People’s Republic of China (PRC) committed approximately 260, 000 troops to combat in North Korea. The initial Chinese decision to intervene in the Korean conflict was based on a misperception of American commitment to halt communist expansion.
Detailed explanation-4: -In some of the fiercest fighting of the Korean War, thousands of communist Chinese troops launch massive counterattacks against U.S. and Republic of Korea (ROK) troops, driving back the Allied forces before them and putting an end to any thoughts for a quick or conclusive U.S. victory.
