    Lieutenant General Stray, commander of the Far East Air Force.  Participated in the ceremony arranged by Far East Commander MacArthur to welcome South Korean President Syngman Rhee to Pyongyang on October 30. Rhee made a rhetorical speech and then performed a people-friendly performance.  He and MacArthur landed in a helicopter on the bullet-riddled Stalin Street.  A meeting with South Korean President Syngman Rhee in a room in the Pyongyang City Hall building.  The president comes from a scholarly family. His father is a scholar-bureaucrat. He used to have a prosperous family. However, scholars suffered from the impact of poor childbirth and the family fortunes declined day by day. There are only six generations of the Li family. It is said that his mother dreamed of an article when she was forty years old.  The dragon sneaked into her arms, and she was ecstatic. Ten months later, she gave birth to the Korean president on March 25, 1875. She was pregnant because of Menglong, so she was named Li Chenglong.  It was passed down from generation to generation, and he had a son in his later years, and changed his name to Syngman Rhee. Although he was born into a noble family, his family was poor and he grew up among common people. When he was a child, he witnessed North Korea's economic backwardness and corruption, and he determined to rebuild the country and revitalize his family business since he was a child.  He engaged in anti-Japanese propaganda, went into exile in China, studied in the United States and became the first American doctor in North Korea. Later, in 1948, with the support of the United States, he became the president of the South Korean government. Since then, a complete North Korea has been divided into two halves.  He expressed great concern about whether China would send troops. MacArthur confidently told the president: "Dear Mr. President, it is unlikely that the Chinese will intervene on a large scale. If they do it in the first two months, no! Even if  It was the first month to intervene, which would be the force that determines North Korea's fate. Unfortunately, it is no longer possible. Due to the emergence of our powerful US military, they have lost the opportunity to intervene. We can't find any reason for them to intervene now.  Even if they do intervene, we are no longer afraid of them. The Chinese have 300,000 troops in Manchuria, but only 100,000 are deployed along the Yalu River, and only 5 to 6 can cross the river.  Thousands of people. They don¡¯t have an air force, but we have bases in South Korea that can be used by our powerful and invincible air force. If the Chinese have had enough and want to commit collective suicide, we will help them, so in this beautiful place of yours  The largest massacre will take place in our land. My dear Mr. President, I really don¡¯t want to see that pitiful scene happen.¡± The South Korean president smiled very happily, and then asked:  "My most respected general, what kind of reaction do you think the Soviet Union will make?" "Haha The Soviet Union's reaction is to stay aside and they will never send troops to North Korea. On 10  After two of our fighter jets attacked a Soviet air base near Vladivostok, 62 miles north of the North Korean border, on October 8, nothing happened to them. The Soviet Union is by no means a force that cannot be humiliated." This  The president personally opened a bottle of red wine that he brought specially from the Burgundy vineyards in France. He poured it into two crystal glasses. Then he raised the glass and said: "To the greatest military strategist in the world, our Republic of Korea  "To you, my dearest General MacArthur's health!" Lieutenant General Stray watched these two most talented actors perform here. He only stayed in Pyongyang for one day and arrived at Gimpo Airport.  , inspecting the largest air base of the Far East Air Force on the Korean Peninsula. The D group is also composed of 6 Flying Leopard bombers and 4 J10 fighters. Their target is Gimpo Airport. The distance from Gimpo Airport to downtown Seoul is only 17 kilometers  , is the busiest airport of the US military. The airport is stationed with 36 F80 Thunder bombers from a flying wing of the 33rd Marine Corps and 24 F-51 Mustang fighter-bombers from the 77th Squadron of the Royal Australian Air Force. The 67th Tactical Reconnaissance Aircraft  Wing and the 474th Interceptor F84 Wing. There are more than 150 aircraft of various types in total. The 865th Anti-aircraft Artillery Battalion is stationed around the airport. It is equipped with 40mm anti-aircraft guns and a searchlight company. At 9:03, the 6 aircraft of Group D compare  Two minutes later, the first group received an order from Air Police 2000 to "get close to the target, 60 kilometers away from the target, and prepare to attack."  Everyone quickly completed preparations for the attack. Gimpo Airport is larger than Suwon Airport. There are fifty aircraft parked in a temporary open-air hangar built with sandbags. The rest are parked in a mess around the runway. Four aircraft are more than 2 meters tall.  The huge beams of high searchlights criss-crossed over the airport. Four J10 fighter jets aimed at the four searchlights respectively. They opened fire with 23mm aircraft cannons at a distance of 4,000 meters. Then they dropped 8 cluster missiles onto the air defense position.  Bomb. At this time, there were two F86 fighter jets. They may be the enemy's aircraft on combat readiness. They started their engines and started taxiing on the runway one after another. They tried to take off. At this time, the 1st Fighter Division and the Regiment were on guard in the air.  Wang Wei, the captain of the first brigade, discovered this situation through radar. He would not give the enemy any chance and launched a PL-9 missile without hesitation. The missile accurately hit the third target that entered the acceleration phase.  The cockpit of an F86 fighter jet shattered the entire nose into countless pieces. The aircraft, which had lost its "head", jumped high into the sky like an explosive gymnast to complete its first mid-air turn.  The pilot of the plane, who was following closely behind, looked at everything that happened at this moment in horror. He was completely frightened at this moment. He pulled the control column back fiercely, trying to jump over the jumping and rolling lead plane in front of him.  .The one in front of me is upside downThe plane flipped gracefully and reached 450 degrees. When the rear plane just left the runway and took off, the two planes collided 30 meters in the air. The scene was quite spectacular, a dazzling flash of light. The fire caused gave these two American soldiers the best chance of bravery.  A grand cremation was held at the same time. Six HJ7 Flying Leopard bombers bombed the predetermined target wildly. 24 500kg napalm bombs covered the entire airport apron and warehouse.  The six JH7 Flying Leopard fighter-bombers that attack the ground all have multiple-use submunition boxes hanging on the pylons directly under the fuselage. This is a method of throwing submunitions from the bomb boxes. After the aircraft returns, it is again  Can be reloaded in the box.  Instead of another disposable submunition box, this type of box contains many small bombs in one box.  After being dropped from the aircraft, it drops to a certain height, disintegrates under the action of air explosion charges, and throws out the bomblets.  Six jh7 flying leopard fighter-bombers are equipped with a total of 24 tons of anti-personnel bomblets. Another scary thing about this kind of bombs is that after a large number of bomblets are scattered around, nearly 30% of the bomblets cannot function normally.  The explosion will pose a huge threat to several square kilometers in the years after the explosion. When these six hj7 flying leopards poured out all their ammunition, they successfully replicated the same drama as Suwon Airport. It was just amplified.  It was more lively and crazy than Suwon Airport. Four minutes, only four short minutes. The largest airport in South Korea turned into a crematorium for United Army aircraft. Five minutes after the air raid, Far East Air Force Commander Si  When Lieutenant General Terai walked out of the basement of Gimpo Airport, what he saw was a real version of hell on earth. The scorching air contained a lot of toxic smoke. The entire airport was burning, and there were explosions in the fire.  One after another, this human tragedy is constantly pushed to the climax. There are wreckage of the plane everywhere in the fire, and corpses lying horizontally, upright, and still burning. The injured are struggling in pain and letting out bursts of wailing.  ,. During the Second World War, Staley served as commander of the Army Air Force in the India-Burma Theater and commander of the Army Air Force stationed in China. He had never seen such a horrifying scene; he wanted to do his best to help those  People were struggling and howling in the fire, but he knew that the only thing he could do now was to watch these people slowly being burned into carbon blocks. Lieutenant General Stray was usually a kind-looking person, quite like a funny university professor.  The doctor reminded him repeatedly that his heart was no longer suitable for military work and that he should not suffer too much mood swings. His heart could no longer withstand this kind of torture.  Lieutenant General Staley himself knew this very well.  He is a well-bred man, gentle, slow to anger, and confident in controlling his emotions.  But at this time, he could no longer control his emotions. He looked at the terrified people running around in the fire and the entire burning airport. He tried his best to organize the panicked people and put them into self-rescue.  But the excitement and the scorching poisonous smoke made it impossible for him to save himself. He pressed his heart in pain with both hands and slowly fell to the ground. When his assistant ran up and turned Streme over.  At that time, I saw this general, his usually neat and meticulous hair was covered with his own vomit, and his body was sweating profusely and he was in a state of shock. He hurriedly shouted for a doctor, but who was the doctor who came at this time?  He stood up and looked around for medical staff, but there was no doctor at this time. When he caught a panicked medical soldier and came to where Stray was lying again, he didn't know where he pulled a trembling man.  Medical soldier. The poor medical soldier used his trembling hands to find the penis from Lieutenant General Stray's coat pocket. When he pried open his mouth with difficulty, he found that he had stopped breathing. According to the statistics of the US military,  Direct casualties not caused by the enemy are not classified as battle losses, so the death of General Stry is not included in the battle damage statistics of casualties in this battle. He does not enjoy the "martyr" treatment of the United States. He only enjoys public injuries.  Unlike China, as long as someone is killed or injured in a war, no matter how they die, even if they die of freezing, starvation, disease, walking with sprained feet, falling and knocking out a tooth, they will all be classified as battle injuries.  Therefore, the difference in statistical methods between the two will lead to great discrepancies in the statistical results.
