But you are correct, the Chinese hardly used guerilla tactics in Korea. Certainly they were hard to spot from the air due to thier lack of vehicles and a tendacy to travel overland rather than use roads. But they normally relied on massive human wave attacks to attempt to overwhelm UN forces. They even tried to attack tanks the same way and hand to hand. There are reports of British tanks having to shoot Chinese soldiers off other tanks with their coaxial MGs!
Yes, the Chinese relied on massive manpower to overwhelm South Korean force, yet some of the tactices they use, like sabotaging railway lines or destruction of key bridges, are in fact, some guerilla tactics.

Chinese also got some artillery, some are reverse engineered Japanese artillery, some from Soviet and some from USA, I believe
