Mao Zedong was
ready to use military force on US UN troops to stop the foreign agenda of
ending Communism in North Korea and China. Communist China was recovering from
a history of war and, therefore, could not enter another war especially against
the Allied forces of US, Britain, and the Soviet Union. However, Mao Zedong new
that if the US subdued and ended communism in North Korea, China would be next.
Therefore, Communist China deployed troops in North Korea forcing the US troops
to retreat.
