The Korean War began on June 25, 1950, and the Chinese People's Volunteer Army crossed the Yalu River on October 19, 1950, marking the beginning of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea. In the following month, the PLA Northeast Frontier Force's four corps moved to the Yalu River's banks.
After entering the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, the Chinese People's Volunteer Army launched attacks and quickly drove the US-led troops from the Chinese border back to the south of the 38th Parallel. The volunteer army then successfully stood their ground along the 38th Parallel and forced the US to propose ceasefire talks.
