"Mr. White, please go and rest with me. Your plane will be taken care of. Gao Quan made an inviting gesture to the pilots of the U.S. Air Force.

"Thank you, thank you, Your Excellency." A pleasant smile appeared on the American's face, "I heard that Chinese food is delicious, can Your Excellency the General treat us to eat?" This U.S. military pilot named White never forgets Chinese food.

"Of course, please, several." Gao Quan turned around and walked to the truck, this time Hong Yingying didn't come up to hold it, in front of the foreigners, Director Hong paid great attention to maintaining the face of the military seat.

The cab was so big, the drivers Niu Dajiang, Gao Quan, and Hong Yingying, the three of them couldn't squeeze the others when they sat inside, and the American pilot followed Biaozi to the back compartment very interestingly. Although Biaozi is not a good receptionist, there is obviously no shortage of good hands in this area among the guards in the back compartment, a few cigarettes, Americans will order Chinese, not for a long time, Chinese and English mixed talk and laughter echoed in the cargo box of this truck.

On 18 April 1942, Doolittle, an officer of the US Army Air Corps, led 16 B-25 bombers of a special flying squadron to take off from the aircraft carrier USS Hornet and bomb Tokyo, Nagoya, Osaka, Kobe, and other important cities in Japan.

The Japanese fleet successfully attacked Pearl Harbor, demonstrating the strength of the Japanese Navy to the world, and also causing the United States to have a deep fear of the Japanese Navy and Air Force. In order to prevent the Japanese Navy and Air Force from attacking and retaliating against the fleet, the U.S. military had already decided before planning this operation that when these B-25 bombers took off, the aircraft carrier Hornet would immediately turn around and return home, that is, after these bombers carried out the bombing mission, there would be no aircraft carrier for them to return! This bombing is a desperate adventure with no return!

When Doolittle and his bomber group reached the skies over the Japanese cities, they found that Japan did not have the air defense systems they had imagined before they arrived. With clear skies and clear views of the cities below, the American pilots were pleasantly surprised to find that the Japanese cities were not defended at all! The U.S. bomber group threw bombs wantonly as if they were conducting bomb dropping training, picking bombing targets like eggs in the market, bombing one city after another, until the bombs were all dropped and the cities below were in a sea of fire.

The mission was accomplished, but the fleet did not have enough fuel for them to fly back to the United States. So, Doolittle led his flying team to continue his flight westward, and he was going to China, to land in this ally country on the other side of the world. In fact, this is also the way out that the military designed for them before this mission. At the same time as the Hornet returned home, the US Government had already notified China, and the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government had issued orders to all coastal theaters to prepare for the US planes.

After a long flight, Doolittle's air force finally flew to the airspace of the Third Theater of Operations, and most of the planes found landing sites at airports in Quzhou, Zhejiang, and other places in China.

As for how the plane did not land at Zhejiang Airport, but flew more than twice the distance inland, until the plane ran out of fuel and could no longer fly, it landed on the street of Xiushui, which is only known to God. According to White, they were lost, and it was amazing how well Mr. White could get lost.

When Gao Quan heard that White's plane was one of the sixteen B-25s that took off from the Hornet, Commander Gao looked at the American as if he were an alien.

"White, your special flight squadron is a collective, where have the other planes landed? Why don't you land with them? ”

"I'm lost," White shrugged his shoulders, "my No. 26 has been flying alone since I saw Chinese mainland, and I never saw a US military plane around!" I flew for five hours, and there was only number twenty-six in the sky. ”

Gao Quan was completely speechless about this Mr. White's ability to recognize the way, and he now wondered if the bomber was bombing Japan? It can't be some fishing village off the coast of China, right? As a bomber flight captain, it turned out to be an air road blind, which is really incredible!

Well, regardless of whether these US pilots are road blind or not, since they have arrived in the 500th Army, Gao Quan will of course be entertained with all his heart.

Meals are prepared quickly, and for these Americans, who have never eaten Chinese food, how to use chopsticks made of two bamboo sticks to get the food to their mouths is obviously a big test. Watching the awkward use of chopsticks by the Americans, Gao Quan and Wu Guangxing all smiled happily.

"Bring some spoons for the American guests." Americans can't eat the food in their mouths, and their eyes are green in a hurry. Gao Quan saw that some of these heroic US Air Force members were already ready to arrest them, so he hurriedly asked the secretary to take the guys, and it was not a way of hospitality to see the guests make a fool of themselves.

The American took an enamel spoon and scooped the fried meat with bamboo shoots and smiled, "Top good, top good." Knowing that he enjoyed the other party's hospitality, the American pilot gave a thumbs up while eating and praised the delicious food, it turned out that these bits and Chinese soldiers on the truck learned these two words!

"Top, top. Hehe, eat, White, eat. Gao Quan saw that Americans were happy to eat, and he was happy.

"Eat, eat." American pilots are just smart, and they learned the word "eat" all at once, "top good, top good." ”

"Well, Mr. White, you valiant U.S. Air Force pilots, I think I should regret to inform you that you will not be able to fly back to the United States in your Twenty-Sixth." Gao Quan shrugged his shoulders very Americanly, "I don't have enough aviation gasoline here, and your planes will probably stay in China." ”

After eating, it is time to talk about the route of these American pilots. Among these pilots, Captain White could speak simple Chinese, and the other four could only speak that sentence, so Gao Quan spoke English with the American pilots.

Seeing that the Chinese general could converse in proficient English, the US pilots were extremely surprised, "Mr. General, it turns out that you can speak English, that's great!" "But after the joy comes the trouble," you said, we already know that even if there is enough fuel, you don't have an airport here, and the B-25 can't take off. The pilots, who had been in high spirits just a moment ago, immediately became depressed.

"Don't be discouraged, although you can't go back on the 26th, you still have other channels to go back to the United States."

"Really? That's great! General Gao, you are such a good person! White gave Gao Quan a thumbs up again.

"When can we go back? Now? When they heard that they could go back, several Americans immediately showed eagerness.
