Uncovering an apparent weakness the Chinese forces, the Eighth Army smashed a small communist unit of 100 men inside Suwcn's ancient walls, then j pulled back after dusk to defensive positions south of the town.

Apparently one purpose of the Eighth Army's lightning left jabs in the west was to throw off balance the typically-sic-w Chinese buildup of an estimated 120,000 men south of the Han River. Allied air attacks bloodied this force with 1,750 casualties in two ys.
