Although Liu Xiaoyong, an important liaison person, was absent, the crossing team still successfully completed the set goal, Gai Longquan was a rough man, and he trusted the people introduced by Zhao Ziming, thinking that they were intellectuals yearning for the light in the enemy-occupied area, and Lao Gai was born as a bandit, but he had special respect for scholars, and arranged for them to fly to Chongqing on the return C47 transport plane the next day.

The guerrilla zone behind enemy lines in Jiangbei was a tactical experimental area of the Allied forces, and the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army had achieved 50 percent of the mechanization, and the equipment of the miscellaneous units was comparable to that of the troops stationed in India, which was completely different from other national army units.

Even the descendants of the national army under the command of Tang Enbo are just formal rifles, Czech light machine guns, with some Makqin heavy machine guns, mortars, two-and-a-half foot coarse cloth military uniforms and legging cloth shoes, and those who can wear German-style steel helmets are considered super elite, and the Jiangbei Army Yishui's American-style M1 steel helmet, twill military uniform, high-barreled leather shoe carbine, eat canned Spam luncheon meat, American-style standard military rations, chewing gum and camel smoke are indispensable in the mouth, not long ago, a motorized unit of the Jiangbei Army drove straight into the river, The magnet tactics were used to eliminate a large number of Japanese troops, and Ye Xuefeng, the political commissar of the Eighth Route Army, who was an observer, was shocked and depressed for half a month.

On average, every three days, a C47 transport plane landed at the Jiangbei Field Airfield, delivering guns, ammunition, gasoline, military rations, and Playboy pictorials, and then returned empty.

The U.S. military transport planes occasionally bring some guests and goods back, such as secret envoys from the Japanese puppet areas, or guests of the Ran Single Gang, who will not be idle at any time, even during the most intense period of the war, the areas occupied by the Japanese lack of materials, antiques, jade, treasures, calligraphy and paintings, and these things are poured into Chongqing, in exchange for penicillin and glass stockings, condensed milk and American cigarettes, back and forth to earn the difference, and make a fortune in the country, even Chen Zikun is not exempt from vulgarity.

On today's plane, in addition to the four people who crossed the team, there was also an American female reporter, Catherine Brown, a war correspondent for the New York Times. Stanley, she made a special trip to cover the situation of the operation behind enemy lines in the Chinese theater, and we talked a lot along the way, Catherine was very concerned about the anti-Japanese war of the Eighth Route Army, and she believed that the Communist Party was the future of China.

"This reporter is very left-wing, and McCarthy will get her in trouble in the future." Ji Yuqian whispered to Guan Lu.

Catherine's eyes widened and she asked in Chinese, "Who is McCarthy?" ”

"It's a politician, an extreme senator." Ji Yuqian was greatly embarrassed, he should have guessed that Catherine knew Chinese, but of course he gave the correct answer, although in 1943, Joseph was later notorious for McCarthyism. McCarthy also served in the Marine Corps.

Catherine shrugged her shoulders disapprovingly, she was indeed a left-wing person and proud of her radical stance.

After chatting further, everyone learned that Catherine and Chen Zikun were old friends, Guan Lu's eyes suddenly lit up, this is a great opportunity, and we must not let it go.

A few hours later, the plane arrived at Chongqing Baishiyi Airport, and the four people who crossed the group walked out of the airport with their luggage, and the cold and gloomy Chongqing in late autumn was shrouded in fog, which made them feel hopeless and helpless.

A black Chevrolet sleeper came to pick up Catherine, driven by a young soldier, wearing a boat-shaped hat, wearing an A2 leather jacket, and a toad mirror stuck on the bridge of his nose, so handsome that Guan Lu's eyes were dull at the time, how could I have seen such a super handsome guy who is masculine and wild in peacetime.

Ji Yuqian has always regarded himself as a domineering president, and he is also a handsome person, but compared with others, he can't help but be ashamed of himself, and it is no wonder that this lord's military uniform and badge prove that he is a Flying Tiger member, a heroic man in air combat who fights in the sky, an idol of 40,000 people in China, and the darling of Song Meiling.

Catherine introduced: "Mike, this is a friend I met on the plane, can I give them a ride if it's convenient?" ”

The young Flying Tiger team member suddenly took off the toad glass, revealing two dark sword eyebrows, and a pair of eyes scanned the four people who crossed the group, Guan Lu's heart began to pound, and the handsome guy said Don't fall in love with me at first sight, it's quite romantic to have a love across time and space, but this is my grandfather's generation.

In the end, the pilot's eyes fell on the young Cheng Zhuzhu, and asked tentatively, "Tie the pillar?" ”

The pillar was puzzled: "Xiaobei? ”

"Oh, it's really you." The two seemed to be old friends who had reunited after a long absence, and it was the kind of iron relationship that made Liu Yanzhi breathe a sigh of relief, and he was worried about how to get on the line with the Air Force, but he didn't expect the tether to come in handy.

The pilot let go of the hitch post and asked with a smile, "Who are these?" ”

"It's my owner." "They're all good people. ”

The pilot gave everyone a chic American-style military salute and introduced himself: "The 14th Air Force, Chen Bei." ”

Chen Bei! Isn't that Chen Zikun's eldest son, the ace pilot of the Flying Tigers, who was killed by the PLA anti-aircraft gun after the liberation and broke his leg by the anti-aircraft guns of the People's Liberation Army, and was assigned to the factory as a security officer, and died at the hands of his wife during the fight.

For the shocked eyes of the passengers, Chen Bei didn't care, he was a man of the hour, he was used to seeing this kind of expression, he opened the car door and invited everyone to get in the car, the Chevrolet sleeping car was very spacious, there was no problem for six people to stuff it with luggage, Chen Bei put on sunglasses, started the car, stepped on the accelerator, and the Chevrolet shot out like an arrow, and a strong push back feeling came, like an airplane accelerating on the runway to take off.

Chen Bei has a bold and rough personality, he doesn't ask where these guests come from, what are the nobles, only ask if you have found a good hotel to stay, whether there are relatives and friends in Chongqing to receive you, after getting a negative answer, he took care of everything: "I arranged for you, live in the China Hotel, there are a few restaurants nearby that taste good, I have a treat." ”

At the dinner table, Chen Bei talked about his acquaintance with the tethered pillar, in the twenty-fifth year of the Republic of China, Chen Bei followed his father into the mountains to hunt when he was fifteen years old, and the father and son met with a female bear who guarded the cubs.

"Later, the dead bear was carried away by his father, and I took the bear cub away." Chen Bei talked about the events of the year, and he was still infinitely fascinated, "A bear weighing hundreds of pounds, just carry it and leave, Uncle Cheng is simply a mountain god." ”

The pillar was very embarrassed: "My family is like this, and I am born with great strength." ”

Guan Lu couldn't help but interject: "What happened to the bear cub?" ”

Chen Beidao: "I kept it at home until the outbreak of the war, and I heard that Da Zhuang is now serving on the front line and contributing to the resistance against Japan." ”

Liu Yanzhi was thinking about the words of the leash, the people of their old Cheng family were born with great strength, the Asian black bears should live in Daqing Mountain, the weight of the adult female bear should be about 300 catties, and an adult man, carrying 300 catties of prey, walked like a fly in the mountains, this is definitely a genetically modified person.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at the shackle twice, afraid that the iron shoes would have nowhere to be found, and the genetically modified person he was looking for was not right in front of him.

Chen Bei is still reminiscing about the past: "Later, my father invited Uncle Cheng to go out of the mountain to participate in the Berlin Olympics, and defeated the American player Owen in the warm-up competition. ”

"I know that Liu Changchun, a Chinese athlete in that year, participated in the sprint race and didn't get the ranking." Ji Yuqian sighed and said, "The Japanese are really scheming, doing everything possible to hit our national self-confidence, according to Chen Dashuai's temper, this thing can't be good, right?" ”

Chen Beidao: "Of course, those fake overseas Chinese who invited guests to dinner were all cooked later, and I don't know who did it." ”

Everyone smiled, and Liu Yan asked directly: "Tie the pillar, everyone in your family is so powerful?" ”

Lianzhu said disapprerovingly: "My father, my grandfather is like this, and I don't remember if I go higher." ”

Liu Yan said straightly: "Have you ever seen a big iron bump, round like a huge goose egg." ”

The pillar was puzzled: "I haven't seen it." ”

Liu Yanzhi didn't continue to ask, anyway, the tethered pillar was by his side, and he could understand the situation at any time, and he could even extract his DNA fragments for testing.

Chen Bei patted the table: "Let's get down to business, you come to Chongqing, do you need my help, I am friends with Lianzhu, his business is my business, you just open your mouth." ”

Liu Yan glanced at Ji Yuqian and motioned for him to speak.

Ji Yuqian understood and said: "Actually, we only settled in Chongqing temporarily, and we finally wanted to go to the United States." ”

As for the reason for going to the United States, Ji Yuqian thought a lot, but Chen Bei didn't ask at all, he was only responsible for solving the problem, not getting to the bottom of it.

"It's not difficult to go to the United States, but the cost is very high, Chinese airlines have irregular flights to Kolkata, and it is easy to go to the United States when you get to India." Chen Bei introduced, "It is very difficult to fly from Chongqing to Kunming, then to Tingjiang, and then to Calcutta, and then to pass through the hump route in the middle, the mountains are steep, the route is like a labyrinth, and the climate is harsh, and from time to time it is intercepted by Japanese fighters, and there are planes crashing every day, and the mortality rate is quite high." ”

Who doesn't know the famous hump route, starting from Assam, India in the west, crossing the Himalayas, Gaoligong Mountain, Hengduan Mountain in the east, alpine snow peaks, canyon glaciers and tropical jungles, cold primeval forests, the peaks are undulating like a hump, the route is 500 miles long, up and down 5,000 meters above sea level, strong air currents, low atmospheric pressure, hail and frost, always threatening flight safety, the valley below the route is full of aluminum skins of crashed and mountain-crashing planes, shining in the sun, it is this route maintained by the lives of Chinese and American pilots, Every day, a large number of strategic materials are transported, and it is like a blood transfusion to support China's great cause of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression.

"We have the money." Ji Yuqian said, he was not weak when he said this, as a descendant with 80 years of historical experience, he was confident that he could make a lot of money on the Chongqing black market in 1943.

"With me, you don't have to spend money." Chen Beidao, "The Tenth Air Force goes to India every day to transport troops, you just go with those strong men of the army stationed in India, and I will arrange it, a matter of one sentence." ”
