President Truman ordered MacArthur to stop at the 38th parallel, the original border between the two Koreas. He feared pushing farther would provoke China into joining the war. However, MacArthur's arrogance got the better of him. He believed China would not get involved and ordered his troops to continue pushing through North Korea all the way through to their border with China. This alarmed Mao and other Chinese leaders who saw this as an invasion of a communist land by a Western army, and thus took it as a threat to China itself. Urged by Stalin, China immediately ordered hundreds of thousands of troops into the war. UN forces were forced to retreat, and the fighting became horrendous for both sides. MacArthur wanted to use tactical nuclear weapons against China, but Truman refused. MacArthur additionally spoke out against Truman publicly about his decisions. Finally, Truman had enough and could no longer trust MacArthur. He fired MacArthur for insubordination.
