They meet only like 00:47.120 --> 00:49.287 resistance . As the Chinese communists 00:49.287 --> 00:53.060 fall back On 21 March Chunchon Falls 00:53.060 --> 00:55.250 without a fight in an attempt to speed 00:55.250 --> 00:57.417 up the offensive and trapped the large 00:57.417 --> 00:59.583 enemy force guarding the approaches to 00:59.583 --> 01:02.760 Pyongyang .
