Blue sky and white clouds, blue sky. The blue sea is rippling with blue waves, and occasionally a few sailing ships skim the sea. A large number of wintering seabirds spread their wings and soar, bringing life to the silent sea. In the middle of winter, Quanzhou, Fujian Province is still full of spring. At this moment, on a field near the coast on the outskirts of Quanzhou, some officers and men of the 9th Corps were sitting on the ground in an orderly manner. A staged stage appeared in the direction of the sea, the Art Troupe of the Eighth Route Army Headquarters. At the invitation of Bai Chongxi, commander of the 9th Corps, he was giving a condolence performance.

After Bai Chongxi led the 3 armies of the 9th Corps to Quanzhou secretly, he began to prepare to cross the sea. At the beginning, during the Battle of Guinan, the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army sent a small detachment of the Art Troupe to Guangxi to give a condolence performance, and the performance effect was a sensation, so Bai Chongxi was very impressed by the Art Troupe of the Eighth Route Army Headquarters. In order to boost morale and ease the tension of officers and soldiers, Bai Chongxi asked the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army to send a art troupe to boost morale. Originally, the Political Department of the Eighth Route Army Headquarters also dispatched an art troupe to give a condolence performance to the front-line troops before the start of the Taiwan Campaign to boost the morale of the officers and men.

The atmosphere was warm, and the applause and cheers were endless. After each actor finished singing, he couldn't take a curtain call, so he had to turn over the stage, and the interaction between the stage and the stage formed an interaction, which made the singers extremely excited. "Brothers and men of the 9th Corps, we understand your enthusiasm, and we will do our best to meet your requests. The following is the girls' chorus: The Song of Gulangyu! Please enjoy! After the slim female newspaper clerk went down generously, 10 beautiful girls walked onto the stage in turn. The girls wore dark green military uniforms, boat-shaped hats and over-the-knee skirts, and black long-heeled leather boots, which supported the girls' slender and straight curves.

The girls stood sideways in a row, their hands clasped in front of their chests, in a graceful posture that supported their beautiful faces. The music sounded: "The sea around the west of Gulangyu Island is vast, and the sea water is bulging and breaking the waves." Gulangyu Island is far away from the island of Taiwan, and Taiwan is my hometown. Climb the Sunshine Rock and look at it from afar, only to see the sea of clouds. I long, I long, see you soon, beautiful Keelung Port. My mother gave birth to me on the island of Taiwan, Keelung Port raised me, and I snuggled up to the old sailor and listened to him talk about the Sea Dragon King??????。 Homesickness, homesickness, drum waves, drum waves, drum waves, see you soon, beautiful Keelung Port. ”

The melody is bright and beautiful, with a hint of sadness, and it leads the thoughts of the officers and men to the treasure island of Taiwan. After a short silence, warm applause broke out, and the atmosphere entered a climax. "Here's the tenor solo: I love this blue ocean ??????。" At this time, Bai Chongxi's eyes were slightly moist, and through the beautiful melody, he seemed to see that Taiwan, the treasure island of half a century away from the motherland, was moaning, expecting, and eager to throw himself into the embrace of the motherland. While the atmosphere was in high spirits, an American-style military jeep pulled to the side, and a young officer jumped out of the car.

The young officer came to Bai Chongxi and muttered a few words in his ear. Bai Chongxi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he immediately beckoned the left and right generals to leave the table. Soon, several military jeeps entered the city of Quanzhou and stopped in front of the headquarters of the 9th Corps. In order to keep it secret, the number of the 9th Corps was not prominently indicated, but the name of the Quanzhou Garrison Command. Bai Chongxi got out of the car and took three steps and two steps into the hall, and at this time, Ouyang Jian was checking the military deployment of the 9th Corps. "Brother Ouyang!" Ouyang Jian turned around: "Brother Bai! The two sides hugged each other warmly.

"Brother Ouyang, Myanmar has been separated for more than a year, and time flies so fast. When did you return to China, and you didn't report in advance when you came to Quanzhou? "I returned to China five days ago, and as soon as I arrived in Chongqing, I received a telegram from the headquarters asking me to set up a Taiwan campaign headquarters. After a few days of delay at the headquarters, I flew directly from Ruijin to Quanzhou, and as soon as I arrived here, I knew that the headquarters art troupe was performing a condolence performance, so I didn't disturb your Yaxing. "Brother Ouyang, I was originally worried, but now I can rest assured, with you as the commander-in-chief, there will be no trouble in joint operations." The two walked into the living room next to them while talking, and the other generals paused with interest.

"Brother Ouyang, do you want to hold a joint operations military conference!" "There is no hurry, the operational plan of the headquarters must be significantly revised, because the enemy situation has changed. The three integrated divisions of the Japanese army, the 56th Flying Regiment stationed in Guangzhou, and the 125th Flying Wing stationed in Hanoi all retreated to Taiwan. The Japanese army took the initiative to abandon Guangzhou, and its three divisions retreated to Taiwan, which meant that Taiwan's defensive strength was greatly strengthened. According to intelligence, at present, Taiwan's Japanese army has concentrated 12 integrated divisions and regiments, with a total strength of about 300,000, in addition to Taiwan's puppet army of 200,000 troops. ”

"Okamura, the old fox, aims to strengthen Taiwan's stability, which has added unimaginable difficulties for us to attack Taiwan." "Brother Ouyang, the enemy situation has changed, and I don't think the success of the attack on Taiwan is great. First of all, without the support of the fleet, even if the air supremacy is seized, the probability of success in the face of the Taiwan Strait is very small in the face of the forced crossing of wooden boats. There are not many available landing sites on the west coast of Taiwan, and if the landing is not successful, the Japanese army will use submarine strangulation tactics, and we have no countermeasures. ”

Ouyang Jian said with a smile: "Brother Bai has been thinking too much, and it is precisely because the headquarters has considered this that the combat plan has been significantly revised. Let me first report on the overall military deployment, and the five corps of He Long's 2nd Corps have been deployed along the coast of Fuzhou. Two F6 teams of the US military are deploying at the Fujian military airport, and the 14th Air Force of the US army is fully supporting the Taiwan campaign. In addition, the U.S. B29 bombing team was stationed at Ruijin Airport in mid-December to assist in the operation. The Eighth Route Army Flying Regiment has been deployed at the coastal field airfields in Quanzhou and Xiamen, mainly to coordinate with your troops in sea-crossing operations. ”

"Brother Bai, in this Taiwan campaign, we mainly used air power to tear through the Japanese defense line. Now a new operational plan is being prepared, and in mid-December we will convene a joint operational military conference, at which time a new operational plan will be promulgated, and you will learn about the new operational deployment. Now you are spending your main energy on the sea-crossing operation, how to take Penghu, and I want to know your battle plan at the military meeting. Seeing the confused expression on Bai Chongxi's face, Ouyang Jian smiled and said, "Brother Bai, modern warfare abounds in which the impossible has become possible, so don't worry about it." ”

"Brother Ouyang, seeing that you are so confident, what else do I have to say, but there is no joke in the army!" "I want to know about the preparation of your department, the big war is imminent, the details determine success or failure, and any flaws will affect the situation of the battle." "Brother Ouyang, it's not for a while, it's my duty to do the friendship of the landlord." "Time is pressing, after inspecting your department, I will inspect the flight regiment, and then I will go back to Fuzhou to study the new combat plan of the headquarters, and you and I will go to the troops below for lunch!" "It's better to be respectful than to obey, listen to you." Soon, a convoy set off in a mighty way and headed for the garrison.

At a newly completed military airport in southern Quanzhou, Tie Ning, commander of the 1st Flight Group of the Eighth Route Army Flight Regiment, led his headquarters to live at the airport. The mission of the 1st Flying Group is not only to cooperate with the 9th Corps in crossing the sea, but also to support the US military in seizing air supremacy over Taiwan. The two fighters landed on the runway, and after the fighters came to a standstill, the captain Tie Ning opened the cabin door and stroked the instruments in the cabin with his hand, with an expression of great excitement on his face. Two ground crews set up the ladder on the plane, and Tie Ning climbed down with agility. "Captain, how is the performance of the new fighter?" A ground attendant couldn't wait to ask.

"It's our own fighter plane, it's just exciting!" The captain of the 1st Kung Fu Squadron ran over and asked, "Captain, it's time for me to fly!" "What are you anxious about, listen to me about the performance of the new fighter!" "Captain, let's wait until I'm done flying." After the first squadron leader finished speaking, he hurriedly ran to the fighter plane waiting in the distance. Three days ago, the Eighth Route Army's secret aircraft manufacturing plant in Xi'an transferred eight new Jian-2 fighters to equip the first squadron and use the opportunity of the Taiwan campaign to test the combat performance of the new fighters. Soon, the first squadron leader led the wingman into the sky, and the other squadron leaders surrounded him.

"Captain, you are too partial, all the new fighters were given to the first squadron, this is also too unfair!" "Captain, it's only reasonable to distribute the squadrons evenly!" "This is the decision of the headquarters, and I have no choice, or you go to the headquarters to reason!" "Captain, tell me how the new fighter is performing!" One squadron leader changed the subject knowing that the argument was useless. "Brothers, the speed and maneuverability of the new fighter exceed that of the Japanese Zero fighter, and the protection performance is better than that of the Zero fighter, we no longer have to be afraid of the Japanese Zero fighter, I want to kill."

"Captain, I don't understand why there are only 8 such advanced fighters?" "You ask me, who do I ask? However, I heard that the US military's F6 squadron has already been stationed in Fuzhou, and this time the US military's air force is mainly used to seize Taiwan's air supremacy. I heard that the main force of Chennault's air force has been transferred back from Burma. In addition, our new fighters are highly secretive, so it is understandable that there are not many of them. As they spoke, the two warplanes began to land, and everyone rushed forward. After a few days of familiarization, the combat performance of the new fighters made the 1st Flying Squadron feel like a tiger with wings, especially Ouyang Jian, who came to inspect the new fighters, gave a detailed introduction to the situation of the new fighters, and promised that by the middle of next year, the 1st Flight Group will be equipped with all new domestic fighters.

Due to the secrecy of the new fighters, the First Flight Squadron temporarily sealed the flight subjects of the new fighters, and the fighters were covered with canvas "clothes" and mixed with the Wildcat fighters, making it difficult to distinguish the appearance of Lushan Station. On this day, the art troupe of the headquarters sent a performance team from Quanzhou to the airport to express condolences, and the performance team was all beautiful girls, which caused the restlessness of the pilot's youth. The performance was a great success, and Tie Ning invited the girls to stay overnight at the airport and go back on the second day. He asked the instructor to accompany the girls to visit the warplane, then took the fishing rod to the beach to fish, and entertained the girls in the evening for tooth sacrifice.

Passing by the brigade headquarters, there was a sound of controversy, and Tie Ning probe peeked and found that several squadron leaders were arguing. "Haha, all of them are beauties, I like that round-faced, big-eyed girl, fair-skinned, smiling and dimpling." "Which girl with a big ass do I like," "I also like a girl with a thin waist and a big ass." "You're not authentic, I'll say it first." "What's the matter with what you say first, it's yours to say first!" "Don't make any noise, did you find it, the captain is a little interesting to the captain of the show, and I found that the captain looked at him wrongly. I warn you, no one can be tempted by any one of the captains, who is the captain. ”

Tie Ning just wanted to go in and reprimand, but suddenly stopped when he heard this discussion. What his subordinates said was not wrong, which Captain Su really made him tempted, this was just a flash of thought, and he was actually seen by his subordinates. Tie Ning was afraid that reprimanding his subordinates would cause him to be embarrassed, so he had to let these stinky boys be obscene. Tiening fishing belongs to the master, and after the end of the air battle in East China, Ouyang Jian personally rewarded him with his beloved fishing rod. Since the flying team came here, the sea is close at hand, so it has become customary for Tie Ning to come to the sea every evening to fish and taste fresh seafood.

Today, Tie Ning's luck was surprisingly good, and he caught dozens of large sea crabs, 5 abalones, 6 yellow croakers more than a foot long, and more than a dozen unnamed sea fish. The guard's basket was already full, and Tie Ning looked up to see that the sun had set, and he prepared to go home. Suddenly, a singing voice came from the side of the reef: "??? Homesickness, homesickness, drum waves, drum waves, drum waves, see you soon, beautiful Keelung Port. Tie Ning was a little surprised, and motioned for the guards to go and see what was going on.
