Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

As American troops crossed the 38th Parallel boundary and headed north, towards

Communist China, the Chinese started to worry about protecting themselves from what

they called "armed aggression against Chinese territory." Chinese leader Mao

Zedong (1893-1976) sent troops to North Korea and warned the United States to keep

away from the Yalu boundary unless it wanted full-scale war.
