Peng Dehuai said: "Commander Gao, I now understand your intention. Although we are not as many fighter jets as the Japanese army, we can use early warning radar to predict the Japanese bombing targets, and then concentrate our superior forces to fight an air attrition war with the Japanese army, seize air supremacy in the western airspace in one fell swoop, and ensure that after this battle, the harassment and air strikes on our western airspace by Japanese aircraft will be completely eliminated, and the safety of the rear will be ensured."

Gao Zhihang said: "Yes, Commander Mu had already had this idea, and now the plan is mature. After the Japanese army discovered our air force, it was estimated that the Japanese army's early targets were Taiyuan, Luliang, Tongguan, and Xi'an. The focus of the Japanese air strikes was definitely Xi'an field airport. General Peng! General Fu! This is my idea."

Gao Zhihang walked to the map and answered: "I am planning to deploy a fighter brigade at Tongguan Field Airport. Tongguan, as the forward airport in Xi'an, can intercept Japanese aircraft in advance and buy time for Xi'an Airport fighters to take off. In addition, through the sudden action of Tongguan Airport, we can clearly predict the key targets of Japanese aircraft."

Peng Dehuai looked at the map and said, "According to your deployment, Xi'an Airport must strengthen its strength." Gao Zhihang said, "I am planning to deploy three brigades of 96 fighter jets at Xi'an Airport. A fighter jet brigade is deployed in Taiyuan, mainly targeting Yangquan Airport. Two fighter jet brigades are deployed in Luliang, in addition to the Yangquan Airport targeting the Japanese army, the main goal is to target Japanese aircraft in Shijiazhuang."

Gao Zhihang paused and said, "I am planning to deploy three fighter brigades at Datong Field Airport. In addition to defending against Japanese aircraft from Beiping Nanyuan Airport, I can also support operations in the Taiyuan direction at any time. At the same time, two fighter brigades were deployed at Suiyuan Field Airport, mainly to assist in the Datong direction. Wuyuan and Lanzhou each deployed a fighter brigade, mainly to prevent Japanese long-range bombers from carrying out air strikes."

Fu Zuoyi asked: "Commander Gao! Since the direction of Xi'an is the focus of the Japanese army, I feel that the number of fighter jets you have deployed is too small?" Peng Dehuai also said: "Not only are the number of fighter jets in Xi'an too small, but the number of fighter jets in Taiyuan too small!" Gao Zhihang smiled and said: "This is exactly what I want to say. We must deploy a hidden support force to support combat. It can not only effectively support the Taiyuan direction, but also timely support the combat in Xi'an direction!."

Peng Dehuai aimed at the map and asked: "Did you deploy the hidden air support combat forces in Yan'an?" Gao Zhihang said: "General Peng has a sharp vision, good! Yan'an has an excellent geographical location. I am planning to deploy four fighter brigades in Yan'an, 128 fighter jets, and support combat in different directions at any time. In addition, two backup brigades are deployed at Helanshan Air Force Base, and they can supplement the combat losses of each unit at any time. At present, we have 20 aviation brigades and 640 fighter jets at a glance."

Fu Zuoyi asked: "If a large-scale air combat breaks out, will the aircraft be considered for combat damage?" Gao Zhihang said: "There are already corresponding arrangements. I plan to prepare a 150-person flight team at Lanzhou Aircraft Manufacturing Factory and send the produced fighter jets to major airports at any time to meet the needs according to the combat damage."

Peng Dehuai was very satisfied after hearing this: "Commander Gao's plan is very meticulous, and I think it will be implemented according to this plan. Immediately send the military deployment to Commander Mu. If Commander Mu has no objection, we will act immediately." The Japanese army is deploying in a intensive manner, and our army is also preparing accordingly. However, the Japanese army has no idea what the number of air force and fighter jets in the western region have reached.

A few days later, in the Women's Department of Yan'an Education Department, everyone was still following the steps as usual. It rained lightly last night, and the sky cleared up in the morning. The bright sun shone on the earth, and the unsoaked land quickly dried up. Perhaps due to the rain, the air seemed very refreshing and refreshing.

Ouyang Baihe received a telegram from Tan Zhen last night, telling him that he had successfully arrived at the China-Myanmar border and reassured her. After receiving the exact news from her husband, Ouyang Baihe was in a good mood. Early in the morning, she walked into the office happily. As soon as she hung her bag on the wall, the phone ringed...

An hour later, more than 50 girls gathered in the yard, and the chirping sounds were coming one after another, which was very lively. Ouyang Baihe saw that the staff were almost there and said, "Girls, we have received a task. An air force is going to enter Yan'an Airport. At present, the guards are setting up tents at the airport, and we are drawing us to temporarily prepare for the arrival of this army. Our job is to pack up the built tents and do a good job of reception, so that the air force officers and soldiers have a good living environment." The girls cheered when they heard that it was the task of receiving pilots. The key was that they could see their own war eagles. This joy made the girls excited.

After a while, two military trucks with tents drove into the yard, and the girls couldn't wait to get on the car. Soon the car drove towards the airport. To put it bluntly, Yan'an Airport is just a flat land with no buildings around it. Usually, a transport plane is occasionally landed at Yan'an Airport, which is a short flight, or an emergency mission is temporarily activated. To be precise, a plane is rare to land at the airport, so Yan'an Airport is basically not used.

In a blink of an eye, Yan'an and even the airport became lively. There were roars in the sky. Occasionally, several planes appeared in the sky and then landed. Soon the plane flew away. The convoys from the north were all heading to the airport. The people in Yan'an increased their interest and curiosity prompted them to go to the airport to see the fun, but martial law was already in the area of ​​three kilometers.

The truck encountered two checkpoints on its way to the airport. It was obvious that the airport had been martial law by the guards. The trucks the girls were riding arrived at the airport, and two Soviet-style transport planes roared. The girls hurriedly got out and saw the transport planes start to glide and then flew to Tiantong. It was obvious that the transport plane was transporting supplies to the airport, and it was very urgent.

Ouyang Baihe observed carefully and saw that there were officers and soldiers active everywhere around the airport. The military supplies transported by the transport planes and convoys were piled up like hills. Many officers and soldiers were rolling oil barrels in a corner of the airport, and the commanding officers shouted loudly to make soldiers pay attention to safety. At the airport, a large number of military tents appeared, and there were still many soldiers building tents in the distance.

When the girls saw this scene, they were even more excited. "Minister Ouyang, you are here!" Everyone was looking around excitedly. An officer walked up to Ouyang Baihe and raised his hand to salute. "It's Commander Li, why are you here?" Ouyang Baihe asked in surprise. Commander Li said: "Our guard regiment is responsible for the airport's alert mission." "What is our mission?" Ouyang Baihe asked.

Commander Li pointed to a pile of military supplies and said, "Your mission is to pack up the set tent, then put the bedding and daily necessities into the tent to ensure that the pilots and ground crews can enter the tent to rest comfortably." "Don't worry! We guarantee to complete the task and ensure that the pilots have a comfortable environment." Ouyang Baihe greeted the girls and walked towards the tent. At this time, two transport planes appeared in the sky.

After a busy morning, Ouyang Baihe and the girls packed up the tents where the pilots and ground crews lived. They ate buns at lunch. At this time, Ouyang Baihe and the girls gathered in front of a larger tent and sat on the ground in groups of three or three. Everyone was holding buns in their hands, eating while constantly talking.

"Hey! You said so many tents, you live in hundreds of pilots, and there must be hundreds of planes!" said a girl. "You don't understand. The ground crews in the tents also have to live in them, not all pilots. I heard that there are more ground crews than pilots, and pilots are all darlings. I heard that the pilots are all handsome and elegant."

"You are so angry that you might as well find a pilot to be your prince charming!" "Don't say I really want to find a pilot to be your husband, do you know the pilot's salary is so high!" The girl did not hide her thoughts. "Yes! Marry a pilot and you can fly in the sky!" "You think beautifully! The plane is just for you to get on..." Seeing the girls' cheerful longing, Ouyang Baihe suddenly remembered her husband far south, and her eyes couldn't help but look at the sky.

At this time, a roar came from the sky, "Look, another plane is coming!" "Why are these planes so small!" "One, two..., there are eight small planes." The girls started to chirp again. Then the planes hovered over the sky and gradually lowered the altitude and began to land. The girls forgot to chew the buns in their hands and watched the flight performance with interest. Whenever a plane landed, they burst into cheers, and the screams of the girls brought a different charm to the airport.

Soon, the pilot got off the plane and lined up. A flight officer stood in front of the team, said a few simple words and announced his dissolution. Then the pilot walked towards the tent where Ouyang Baihe was. Seeing the pilot walking towards him, the girls stood up one after another. The flight officer who was leading the team in front greeted him first: "Hello girls!"

Suddenly, the flight officer leading the team opened his eyes wide and stared at Ouyang Baihe. After a moment, he shouted, "Sister-in-law Ouyang!" Ouyang Baihe was a little confused. The flight officer took off his flying hat and said urgently: "I am Xiao Zhang, the guard of Commander Tan. Sister-in-law, you don't know me anymore." Ouyang Baihe seemed to remember the surprise and asked, "You are Zhang Jun, why are you..."

Zhang Jun said excitedly: "Sister-in-law Ouyang, shortly after you married the brigade commander that year, the troops selected pilots. I was selected and left the brigade commander to go to the aviation school. Soon after the war broke out, I lost contact with the brigade commander and formed the Northwest Front Army. I heard that the brigade commander was promoted to the commander. My name was given by the commander at that time. I was taken in by Commander Tan in the year of the Great Wall. I was only 16 years old that year. Sister-in-law, I have been missing Brother Tan in the past few years. I am now the commander of the flight squadron. How is Commander Tan now?"

Ouyang Baihe said: "Five years have passed in a flash. I still have the impression of your appearance at that time. Your Brother Tan was transferred to the south to fight not long ago. He would definitely be happy to know that you are so promising now." Then Ouyang Baihe introduced Zhang Jun's situation to the confused girls, and the girls immediately surrounded Zhang Jun curiously...
