Mr. Lao, we call him Mr. Lao, Mr. is a very happy person, really the kind of innocence that everyone around him envies, everyone even thinks that he is the kind of natural rich man, there is no ideal in his life, and some people may even think that this is a kind of recovery of life.

I'll tell you the story of the old gentleman, really today is the last day of our year, and many people are thinking about a great year. How do you spend your time, listen to me tell you this story, thinking about those great questions, not eating.

The old gentleman was an overseas Chinese, and in 1942, this was a long time ago, when he was in his 20s! Shortly after graduating from college, the old gentleman joined the Flying Tigers, and he was not an American. He was recruited by the Flying Tigers, and when the Japanese invaded China, there were many such young Chinese overseas Chinese who joined the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression. As far as I know, he studied electrical engineering! He was recruited by the Flying Tigers, who graduated from the engineering department of a well-known university in Nanyang, as a ground crew for about half a year, and they trained in the United States for half a year, and then went to Burma, and then went from Myanmar to Chengdu, where they began to do ground crew, that is, to maintain aircraft. His identity includes their group of people, in fact, their identities have always been very vague, they are hired by the Flying Tigers, but it is Song Meiling who pays for it. They fought against Japan, but in the capacity of this flying squad as a private slick team, in fact, they were not regular troops. They are neither the US military nor the national army.

They were mercenaries, later, and then about 1945, not 1943, and in 1944, the regular army of the American army came in 1943. First of all, the U.S. Air Force and this was the U.S. Army Air Force, but these Flying Tigers they looked for the captain Chennault who was not included in the U.S. Army Flying Tigers in the end, and they later joined the National Army Chennault, and later became the chief of staff of the Chinese Air Force.

The real old gentleman is married, right, the lover is an overseas Chinese and a doctor.

After the Japanese army occupied Southeast Asia, it was equal to the old man. Their whole family came to China in a hurry, and the so-called whole family is actually an old mother of three, and Mr. He. There was a time when the old gentleman was flying, the so-called hump course, right, I thought he might have been a mechanic at that time.

It could also be used as a translation for this cluster. Because at that time, the pilots of the US military and our Chinese pilots flew together, and many Chinese pilots, his spoken English was not up to par, and the hump route was, which was such a thing, that is, China originally followed!

The connection with the world's materials depends on the coast, right? After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Tianjin and Shanghai soon fell, right?

Soon, Guangzhou also fell like this, China's contact with the outside world, this direction of the coast was cut off by the Japanese, after the coast was cut off, at that time, China's main contact with the outside world was mainly through Yunnan from Yunnan to Burma, right, to receive supplies from the British-controlled areas, what about the United States at the beginning?

The United States was isolationist in the early days of World War II! That is, the American people did not agree with the United States' involvement in the war, so although the US government was in its heart and supported China and had this desire to support China's War of Resistance, it could not give supplies directly to China, and if Roosevelt wanted to get involved, if he was involved in China's War of Resistance, then he would have to step down and be impeached, and then it wasn't Japan that attacked Pearl Harbor, and this angered the American people.

Playing overnight, the Americans suddenly supported the war, and Congress almost unanimously voted to declare war on Japan at that time, as if it was one vote short at that time, and you don't know what was going on?

In this way, Japan and the United States, as well as Britain and Japan, are on one side. The United States, Britain is in Asia, even if that is a big fight.

But in the early days of the war, the United States did not fight well, and Britain fought even more, which was called defeat and retreat.

The British were finally driven out of the whole of Southeast Asia, and the Japanese army captured Burma, so that China's main road to the outside world was cut off again, and the Yunnan-Burma highway was cut off.

Transporting supplies to China to supply China, he does not care about the cost. You think, what is this called the problem of crossing the Himalayas, the problem is the plane at that time!

It's not like you can fly tens of thousands of planes now, right? At that time, West Mananda was deeply buried!

Just go to even those lower places. The so-called mountain passes through the West Malay Mountains have more than 6,000 people in many places. At that time, the maximum ceiling of the general transport aircraft was 6,000, what is the voice line, the most non-high, how high can the plane fly, right?

The main thing is that the air is thin after high altitude, and one is, it's the engine, right?

When the high oxygen level reaches a certain height, the combustion is not sufficient in the future, that is, the engine is not energetic, so the bees of the aircraft at that time are not so good, especially the transportation west, the high altitude is low pressure, which will affect many instruments. What else?

It's like an oil pump! What these pumps are also affected by the work of these pumps, so at that time the so-called leap, Malaya what is a game is not like the leap over the Himalayas that we imagined, it is not from the mountains that he flies over the money, it is from below through the valley, and it is necessary to follow the terrain is not this section of the highest peak in March, more than 6 kilometers, take the plane is enough, rush up, this short section of more than 6000 fans and wait for the mountain to go down quickly, back to 6000 If you take a shower, or what, you just crashed and crashed into the mountain, so the plane was in the air at that time was very good, and the pilot was skilled, because this plane goes up and down and looks at that, and his route is like a hump, isn't it just a moment to get up and down for a while, and get up again for a while?

Go, so that route, which later became known as the Hump Route. Many areas where the plane flew were no-man's land, so once there was a mechanical failure, you should not talk about the backup airport, right, after the crash, there was no rescue at all, even if it was a variety of mechanical failures, it was lost during this period, and more than 500 planes were lost at that time!

Even if those pilots are all finished, it seems that there are more than 1,000 people, and they are usually from India at that time!

Drugs and electronic equipment from India cannot be shipped anywhere else, the main thing is this tonnage!

The main thing is medicine and electronic equipment, from here, when I flew back from India to China, and most of the Chinese expeditionary force that took dozens of Chinese soldiers and later in India was like this, 1 point 1 point in the past and now, of course, we don't need that, right?

Now there is a passage through Pakistan, but at that time, the so-called Hongqi Lapu was called the Ghost Gate Pass.

Later, the old gentleman and the old gentleman were not a little later, that is, when he landed, the old gentleman was injured in college. It is said that at that time, there were many accidents when such planes landed. What an American plane!

I'm telling you that it wasn't as reliable as it is now, when a man was so good at that time, he flew a route, and it was a desperate and. After being injured, the old gentleman can't fly, right? In the later stage of the Anti-Japanese War, its main job is to do ground crew training. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, right, is it 1945, right, what about the US airfields in China, that is, when the victory of the Anti-Japanese War was approaching, there were already a lot of US army airfields, and the US Army Air Force began to take off from China and bomb Japan, and the maintenance of ground support aircraft at these airports was the responsibility of the Chinese.

When they waited for the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the U.S. military withdrew from China, and most of the overseas Chinese did not leave, they stayed, and the old gentleman had one time!

Just chatted with me, and said that this was a group of overseas Chinese at that time, and I really had ideals in my heart.

They are particularly patriotic to see China now!

In their hearts of the victory in the war against Japan, they are full of that kind of joy, they are actually very aggrieved abroad, right, if you don't do well, people look down on you, if you do well, people will be strong on you.

Now there is an opportunity to talk about contributing to the country, at that time, even if the Americans wanted to take them away, you gave them a mountain of gold, and we didn't leave and stayed in the country, and later, they became a very important group of the national air force by 1946, right, the national army's air force was already very long at that time, the scale, if you think about it, you can bomb the liberated areas with a large number of aircraft, but in the end, ah!

Let's talk about this, he! He doesn't win much popularity, right, we all know that he was defeated in the war later, right? By the time 1949 50 years had left, they were left with only the great southwest on the mainland, and the people at that time!

It is true that it is not only military yes, but the main thing is unpopularity.

You just want to help the overseas Chinese, and in the end, many of them support Strange. At that time, you could choose to say that you would go to Taiwan with the plane, but when you went to the United States, it was true that many people left, but the old gentleman didn't go, right?

Later, I didn't go back to Southeast Asia, in fact, the third time, this is this time I didn't go to Taiwan with the national army is really this is a real idea in the hearts of the Chinese at that time, you think that at that time it really didn't mean to say whether to say it, we really won the hearts of the people at that time, but then things were very complicated, right?

Old gentleman. It's all about ruining a pistol incident in your life, what kind of thing is this, heck, you probably hear it ridiculously.

Old gentleman, but when I returned to Japan, I was in my 20s. When the Anti-Japanese War was won, he was the kind of person who was still very good at playing in his 20s, and he told you that your old man was a living Buddha.

He was injured in the waist and leg back then, so he couldn't do without that cane later, otherwise I tell you, this must be the kind of person who runs long distances every day. This old gentleman loved to play at the time, especially if he liked to be a gun fan, and the ground staff at that time was yes!

Do they all have guns, but the old man was already a school officer at that time, so he took a handful that no one else had Mr. Shi, there was one, and there were very few people who knew about it, and then there was an uprising, wasn't it, and then it happened, that is, everyone's generals were confiscated by this gentleman!

I didn't give up the wine, and no one knew that he had a gun at that time, so this matter, and then it was just mixed up, and when the entire southwest was liberated, it was probably the bandits in the purge, this is 51 years and 52 years, the old gentleman himself said, when it comes to my gun, I don't dare to hand it over?

Because you didn't pay it back then, right? You're teaching you now, you're afraid you won't be able to tell, right, and you won't dare to play anyway. So the old gentleman put the gun and the bullet together, and threw it when it arrived.

One particularly interesting thing or something, until now I still tell me, said that I was at the time, and held a farewell ceremony Oh, really reluctant to will, I wiped it by and then used this tarpaulin tile 1 layer 1 layer of the country, and then it, and then sank into the water, originally thought it would be fine, but who knows more than a year later, no one really knows that the old man has this matter, but more than a year later, once to the old gentleman told me about my master's degree, right, his wife just said that he deserved it, right?

Later, they went to rob and did an experiment, and the human beings would not wash away without wrapping it in an oilcloth, but in the end, it would take it along the river and wash away the old gentleman. Later, I took the police and said that I wouldn't be able to catch it. The question is, isn't that also a solution?

It's good, I threw the gun away, and I threw it into the river and was washed away by the water. After experiments, it has been proved that what the old gentleman said is true, is this also clear?

Nothing big here.

But no, this thing is different in nature, it's a key department, right, you have to make it clear, and you will still be okay later, you say it lightly, now you tell us why you put that gun on it, do you plan to catch it when?

We feel now. This is a small old gentleman at the time, who went to cry without tears, and what happened later was complicated, and he missed his entire youth because of this incident in this life, right?

He likes airplanes, but he really won't have the opportunity to touch airplanes in the future, he went to work in a library, and you can be considered an administrator.

Later, all his life he was translating American aviation magazines, not to say others, what he did was what he was willing to say, but when he was a child, he was very willing to go to his house, and there were always a lot of English magazines in his family.

He showed us the pictorial, and then he translated it for us, sentence by sentence!

It's a comparison of seven, the Flying Fortress, that, it's the B29 Super Flying Fortress! How many machine guns do it have in the air, how to defend against enemy planes in all directions, sometimes I will talk about it. At that time, even the most advanced American aircraft at that time were B, right, the old man of the stratofortress said, this means that there will be some silence, that is, this is not easy to do!

With this P flying in, he also participated in the performance at the two P40s, and then the commentator David at the time said, this is the livery of the Flying Tigers back then, and Mr. Flying Tigers said that she was talking nonsense, right?

No, the Flying Tigers, they weren't called the Flying Tigers at first, and the Flying Tigers had nothing to do with the Tigers in the first place. There are no tigers in the United States. Americans don't even know what a tiger is, and at the beginning, the one on the head of the American plane was a shark's head and a big tooth sign. It was a shark head.

Now a lot of American planes have been talking until now, right, in fact, the interior has a shark head, you see, now during the Gulf War, everyone pay attention to the A-10 attack plane, right, then also draw a head of that that, it is almost a standard configuration of the US military aircraft paint, this is a pattern of a US signboard.

How did this come about, let me tell you about Yuan, this was originally a way to survive. It was during the First World War, and the plane was already used in large quantities, but the death rate of the pilot at that time was very high, why did the plane fly at that time?

You want to shoot each other with a few shots when two planes face each other, and it's normal to shoot each other and kill whom, right, it's a matter of luck, so there are a lot of very smart pilots, what to do?

They're not, the plane is painted to be camouflaged dead, so you can't see it. It's not him, right, the plane is painted in a particularly conspicuous color, and then, and then even the cross painted on the plane, each cross represents me, how many planes have I shot down, lest the other party can't see what it means, scare the opponent, especially some trump cards, the pilot is especially willing to let people know that this is my plane, how many planes I have shot, you are afraid, look at me from a distance and avoid it, I will have a lot less trouble.
