On January 25, 1951, the Zhikong D1 Army received a telegram from the Supreme Commander that it had gone south ahead of schedule

Deng, Comrade Chang Er

Please make good preparations for going south in advance, and be sure to enter the combat airfields in Guangdong and Fujian before 10 March. In order to ensure the safety of the landing ships and cargo ships handed over to us by the British, and to ensure the air supremacy of the Navy and the 9th and 10th Corps in the training sea area, and to guard against reconnaissance and bombing by the planes of Chiang Kai-shek's group.

In addition, after your division entered Guangdong and Min, the navy and the 9th and 10th corps formed a joint command organ of the army, navy and air force.

After receiving the telegram from the supreme chief, the base held a party committee meeting overnight to implement the instructions of the supreme chief.

Everyone discussed and mobilized the action of going south to Guangdong and Fujian." . This Li Dawei is looking for trouble, and it will be over if he let the British deliver all the goods in Tianjin." Gao Qiang was the first to say. Amphibious tank landing ships and cargo ships are mainly for the purpose of attacking Taiwan." Wang Kunpeng expressed a different opinion: "You can't transfer the 9th or 12th Corps to the northeast for training." Originally, it was said that when the North Korean side stabilized, it would enter Fujian and Guangdong. This time it's just a little bit ahead of schedule. Sooner or later, you have to go. What is there to discuss. Wu Di said disapprerovingly: I am alone, and I will go if I have no home or job."" You really can't go" Deng Feng glanced at Wu Di and said, "It's still a big head here. The main forces are still here, and China's major industries are concentrated here. Although it was good to talk to Lao Mei, we haven't gotten most of the benefits yet. If necessary, you have to hit it again. Although the United States has transferred two wings in Japan, there are still several hundred planes, and we cannot take it lightly." "These 30 amphibious tank landing ships and these 10 cargo ships are very important to us." Liu Jun said with a stern expression: "The next step is to accept the Ryukyus, to collect debts, and to fight Lao Chiang to liberate Taiwan. There can't be any mistakes. I worked hard to fix these boats, and if I called Lao Jiang's plane to blow up. Then it's all in vain." Liu Jun took a sip of tea and continued: So you have to keep it no matter what. Everyone knows that the foundation of the Chinese Navy is weak, and this time the 30 LST1 amphibious tank landing ships and ten 10,000-ton ships are a timely rain for China. Now there is no naval aviation, and it is a problem to rely on the current navy to protect itself, let alone liberate Taiwan and land on the ground." Liu Jun finally looked at Chang Qiankun and asked, "Did you say that?" Old".

Chang Qiankun nodded and said: "Yes, the strength of the navy is too weak, the year before last, that is, on January 8, 49, the Central Committee passed the party instructions on the party's tasks in 1949 and decided to form a navy. On 25 February, the cruiser "Yucheng," which had the largest tonnage and the strongest combat effectiveness of the Kuomintang Navy, revolted at the anchorage outside Wusongkou, and the central authorities were afraid that they would be attacked by Kuomintang planes in Shanghai, so they urgently ordered the Yucheng to go to Huludao, but they still did not escape the Kuomintang planes, they chased them to Huludao, bombed them, and finally suffered many wounds, and had no choice but to sink themselves in Huludao. Zhang Aiping served as the first commander and political commissar. Our army is considered to have its own navy. On the day when the Naval Command of the East China Military Region was established, Lin Zun, commander of the Second Fleet of the Kuomintang Navy's Coastal Defense, led two escort destroyers and a total of 25 ships, more than 1,200 officers and men, to revolt on the Doushan River in Nanjing and join the PLA. This is the Navy's biggest entry. However, the naval fleet of the East China Military Region was soon bombed by Kuomintang planes, and 26 ships, including the two escort destroyers of the uprising, were damaged and sunk. The Kuomintang Air Force continued to pursue until the middle and upper reaches of the Yangtze River, where it sank six of the nine ships of the Second Fleet of the Kuomintang Navy. On 19 September, the "Changzhi," the flagship of the First Fleet of the Kuomintang Navy's coastal defense, revolted, and finally sunk itself on the Nanjing River under the bombing pressure of Kuomintang planes. In February last year, it was salvaged and repaired, joined the People's Navy, and was named "Nanchang". From 22 October to 7 December last year, 13 more ships of the Kuomintang Navy rebelled. On 27 October, the navy of the East China Military Region was to receive one frigate and one medium-sized landing ship purchased from Hong Kong by the Shanghai China Merchants Bureau, four gunboats, and two gunboats purchased from Shanghai. In December, 3 small landing craft were also received. That's all there is to it. That's pretty much all we have in the Navy. Deputy Commander Liu is right, without naval aviation and air supremacy, our navy will indeed not be able to protect itself from bombing planes, and the only way for enemy planes to bomb is to sink themselves and then repair them. So I'm scared of being blown up. As everyone knows, the Supreme Commander attaches great importance to our Zhikong D1 Army, and under normal circumstances, he will not use our strategic force lightly. This time we were ordered to go to Min, Guangdong Airport, and it was precisely with this in mind that we were prepared. It shows that the supreme chief attaches great importance to these ships."

Deng Feng said: Go, I will definitely go, according to the original plan, it will not work. Until the United States has not fulfilled its claims in the Ryukyus and promised not to interfere in the war, it is necessary to maintain an air force sufficient to combat and deter the U.S. forces stationed in the United States. In my opinion, Chief of Staff Wang first led the Air Police 2000 and 12 J10 fighters, 8 J-7 fighters, and 16 modified MiG-15s to go south to Guangdong and Fujian ahead of schedule according to the order of the supreme chief. These are enough to deal with the Kuomintang. When we really hit Taiwan, we will go to support here."" Commander," Deputy Chief of Staff Lei Ting looked at Deng Feng and asked his own question: "After the MiG-15 modification, the test flight time is too short, stable and unstable?" Besides, the FeimiG-15 is changed to new students who only fly for more than ten hours, okay?" Chang Qiankun immediately took over because he was in charge of the training of new pilots and said: "It is absolutely no problem to choose 20 or 30 trainees among the more than 300 pilots trained by flight trainers. A few days ago, I went to Ansan Airport and squatted there for a few days, and found that some of the trainees, although they had only flown for more than ten hours, had already shown good pilot potential. For example. Liu Hai: "Next, I heard a few familiar old-timer names here, all of whom were pilots who had made many achievements in the history of the air war to resist US aggression and aid Korea. Do you think that in history, didn't Chinese pilots fly for more than ten hours and then go to the Korean battlefield under the leadership of Soviet pilots? Next, everyone had a discussion on this kind of training with war, and decided to use the old to lead the new, and the pilots of the D1 Army in the air battle, under the condition of ensuring the safety of the new pilots, boldly use them to cover their attacks.

In response to the question that the Deputy Chief of Staff Thunder MiG-15 is stable and unstable after the modification. Zhang Hengshan, director of the repair plant, replied: "The MiG-15 is the world's earliest jet fighter, whether in design or manufacturing technology, there are many deficiencies in the manufacturing process, and most of our modifications of the MiG-15 are modified with reference to the MiG-17 and 19, and the technology used is molding. After the modification, the various surname performance indicators of the aircraft have been greatly improved, so that the stability of the aircraft is better. The modified flight capability has surpassed that of the MiG-17D, and it has a certain all-weather combat capability, and it can reach or exceed the MiG-19 in firepower without carrying an auxiliary fuel tank.

Deng Feng and Gao Qiang both flew a few times after the modified MiG-15, and the two interjected: "The test flight time is a little shorter, but it feels good to fly. I can't help it during special times."

Zhang Hengshan sighed and said: "I don't like to hear this, what is it not bad!" This is already the most advanced and powerful aircraft of this era. It doesn't take two years to sell Stalin, and we have 100 MiG-15s that can withstand for a while after all modifications. If it is possible to import two or three hundred engines from the big nose, I guarantee that it will be able to install a more advanced fighter than the MiG-19. The main thing now is not the plane, the main thing is to get the missiles out first, and that is the super murder weapon that is one to ten."

So what's going on with you? Deng Feng asked. Ramjet engines and turbine engines, mass production will definitely be fine." Zhang Hengshan said: "Now the main part of the guidance part of the electrical device can not be solved." Don't worry, the Semiconductor Research Institute is engaged in. The production of eight-inch wafers is also progressing steadily. Liu Jun looked at Zhang Hengshan and said: You still want to introduce to you the specific situation of the MiG-15 modification, and let everyone have a number in their hearts" "Now the repair shop is modifying the MiG-15 at a rate of six per month, for the power plant WP-5 centrifugal jet engine. We have not made any changes, the maximum thrust of 2600 kg, the afterburner thrust of 3380 kg, can still meet the needs of the modification. We mainly changed the two external auxiliary fuel tanks into multi-functional pylons, which can also be attached to conventional bombs and PL9 air-to-air missiles. Four groups of 16 57-mm rockets can be hung under the wings, and the on-board equipment is equipped with a radio altimeter, a beacon receiver, a friend or foe identifier, and an electronic rangefinder weapon, and two 23-mm cannons are mounted on the lower left side of the nose, which have been moved to the wing roots, and a 37-mm cannon on the lower right side of the nose is retained. We did not move the original machine equipped with optical semi-automatic sights, and installed a set of infrared sighting system, dismantled the original two camera guns, and can hang 2 PL9 air-to-air missiles after modification, of course, this must be guided by the air police or J10 and JH7, and the missiles can play a greater role. But as a missile launch platform in the air is not a problem at all. Gives the MiG-15 medium-range strike capabilities. As you know, the main opponent of the MiG-15 is the American-made F-86 Saber fighter. The MiG-15 is superior to the American F-86 in terms of speed, climb rate at medium altitude, acceleration rate and maximum ceiling, but the main problem is that the slalom surname is worse than the F-86, and the stability at high speed is not as good as the F-86, and the large movement at high speed will lead to a stall, and some novices can not solve it. have made big changes. The wing sweep angle was changed to 55 degrees according to the MiG-19, which made the stability of the aircraft at high speeds better

After listening to Zhang Hengshan's introduction, Deng Feng said to Wang Kunpeng: "This time you led the team south, what are your opinions and requirements?" I don't have any opinions, the original plan was for me to go with Dawei, and Dawei is now a diplomat, so I definitely can't go. Give me another guy at the station. The station is too complicated, I don't understand it, and I will bring two D1WS200 small UAVs. It can be used for regular vigilance and reconnaissance. Wang Kunpeng said. Deng Feng said: "You are going to form a joint command of the three services this time, and you must pay attention to doing a good job of unity and coordination. Summing up experience and accumulating some experience for future integrated land, sea, and air warfare."

Chang Qiankun said: "Don't worry, it's okay. In April last year, the Military Commission issued an order to establish a leading body of the PLA Navy with the organs of the 12 Corps of the People's Liberation Army as the mainstay, with Xiao Jinguang as the commander. I know Lao Xiao very well, and I am an old comrade-in-arms, that person is good. On May 25, he cooperated with the army to liberate the Wanshan Islands, and sank 4 Kuomintang warships, damaged 12 ships, and captured 11 ships. Ha. Ha" Chang Qiankun laughed and said: "I think Lao Xiao got so many ships at once this time, and he also has the air protection of the Air Force, so he must be secretly having fun now."

Everyone discussed some specific issues, and finally Deng Feng said: "Then let's decide as such, first, quickly set up a strong command organization to go south." Wang Kunpeng was in charge of the immediate formation of the Guangdong and Min air force front-line commands. Second, the squadrons with strong combat effectiveness and outstanding flight cadets of each division will be transferred to form the first mixed division of the air force with a mix of old and new aircraft and a combination of various types of aircraft, so as to resolutely fulfill the combat mission assigned to us by the supreme leader. The third is to strengthen the security institutions of Guangdong and Min airports, and ensure that the support is effective in a timely manner. As the saying goes, before the soldiers and horses move the grain and grass, all kinds of war materials and ground crews must be moved in advance. It is necessary to take full account of the current road and rail situation. Four. Special attention should be paid to the safety of the airport during the transfer, as the airport is at its weakest and most vulnerable to enemy aircraft attack before and after arriving at the new field. This is important to pay attention to. Be sure to have strict anti-crime measures in place. Ensure that the decision of this meeting and the plan for going south are reported to the top head in a foolproof manner."

It's really called Chang Qiankun to say that it's right, the commander of the Navy heard that 30 LST1 amphibious tank landing ships and ten 10,000-ton freighters were really happy, thinking about this bit of family in front of him, it's really pitiful. Such a big country, such a long coastline. With just a few ships, this naval commander is really not easy to be. Now it's okay.30 amphibious tank landing ships can carry tens of thousands of personnel and equipment at a time, and hundreds of tanks. What kind of force will that be, and this time the central government also sent the air force, so there is no need to worry about the bombing of the Kuomintang planes. Our mighty army grew wings all at once. The sea could no longer restrain his progress.

Then I immediately became worried, the navy is a very strong technical service, and there are so many ships at once, so many people are going to do it? Just 30 amphibious tank landing ships, to say the least, will have 4,000 people
