(1)However, in the midst of this defeat, the Korean army did not retreat and fought desperately. There was no deserter, and even in the battle of Gwangseongbo, which was almost a massacre, the U.S. troops fought to the end Some Korean soldiers tried to kill themselves by jumping on the U.S. soldiers or stabbing them in the neck with the bayonet of the U.S. soldiers
(2)Once you compare the number of dead and wounded above, that’s not the rate you’ll get out of a normal battle It is a figure that cannot come out unless the attack side is determined to kill all people or the defense side is determined to die, and that much of the transcription cost itself is also impossible with most power differences
(3)Although veterans of the Civil War were sick and tired of sticking to each other like poison, the U.S. military’s fear of defeat was that it was a mysterious battle that began with the U.S. military’s fear of defeat Most of the post-war records are not winning, but they’re completely applied, but they’re more like, “What are you doing?” 19

The end of the desperate battle is
In the end, the annihilation and eradication of the Joseon army

Knowing that the U.S. military’s guns were advanced at the time
It is said that the Joseon army prepared it by wearing nine layers of cotton in June

Joseon’s weapons were so poor that it was hard to hit the U.S. military properly
Bombs and bullets fired by the U.S. military poured into the Korean military

I thought that the spirit of our ancestors was really amazing
