    • , volume XVI, number 1, China Welfare Institute, →ISSN, →OCLC, page 11, column 3:
      In mid-December the enemy sent eight complete divisions to invade the Linchiang area, arrogantly blustering: "We will drive the Communists into the Yalu to bite at the ice. We will drive them up the Changpai Mountains to chew on the rocks."]
    • , Macmillan Publishers, →ISBN, →OCLC, page 306:
      Although the entire Communist force was driven back to the Korean border by early November, the commanders of the Fourth Column derived some satisfaction from their near destruction of the Nationalist 25th Division, after a fierce four-day battle at Hsin-k’ai-ling, west of K’uantien.* Moreover, their planned withdrawal to the vicinity of Linchiang in southwestern Kirin Province had diverted the Nationalists from exerting major pressure against Lin Piao’s main force at Harbin and Yüshu.]
