I think the Chinese had about one million troops in Korea duing the entire war as opposed to about 25,000 Russian advisors. But most of the modern tanks, artillery, technical support and replacement equipment used by the Communist side were supplied by the Russians, and most combat pilots were also Russian, hense the word proxy war.
