Presighted The idiom is easy to say, but difficult to do.

If one of the most famous foresights in the party is that Su Yu requested to stay in the Central Plains to fight three times, it is nothing more admirable.

Su Yu, Chairman Mao

At that time, crossed the river to fight was on the board, but Su Yu predicted the future and insisted on staying in the Central Plains to fight. Chairman Mao also agreed in the end, which gave the wonderful performance of 's three major battles .

And another foresight to talk about today, is related to Chen Yun . This foresight directly made the Chinese Air Force take a big step...

Shanghai suffered an enemy air strike 26 times

On October 1, 1949, The People's Republic of China was established.

In this great festival, Chairman Mao was naturally very happy, but no one expected that the sound of the Kuomintang bombs was still accompanied by the sound of cannons at the founding ceremony of .

Chairman Mao's smile disappeared suddenly.

Chairman Mao

Chairman Mao understands that the Air Force is the key to the current war, but there is no time. The Kuomintang air strikes are coming frequently. It is impossible for us to take time to send people to the Soviet Union to learn how to fly planes, and buy planes.

Thinking of this, Chairman Mao began to feel anxious.

After the Kuomintang harassed , Peking , it did not continue to attack Beijing, but instead ran to Shanghai, an industrial city.

During those months, Shanghai had sharp air defense alarms sounded every day, and this period was also called Shanghai's "Black Day".

According to incomplete statistics, started to count from October 1949, and to February 1950, Shanghai was air strikes 26 times.

Learning this data, Chairman Mao's anxiety became even heavier, while at the same time, the grass mountain dance floor in Taiwan was brightly lit.

Chen Jiashang

It turned out that a group of senior Kuomintang military and political officials were celebrating "Blasting Shanghai for victory" , and the so-called commander-in-chief of the Kuomintang's Air Force Chen Jiashang also walked in, proudly accepting everyone's praise, and threatening to re-emerge on the mainland's land by air strikes.

In the next year, Yalu River will also start to roar in the air. The United States took this opportunity to start invading China, and the East China coastal areas began to be affected by various invasions. The Kuomintang took this opportunity to climb over the United States and began to harasse the coastal areas unscrupulously.

may be to predict the upcoming future . Chairman Mao understood that air defense is imminent.

Chang Qiankun led his troops to the Northeast to train pilots

After thinking for a while, Chairman Mao decided to sit down and write a letter to Premier Zhou, and what he wrote was the future of China's air defense.

Chairman Mao and Premier Zhou

Soon, Premier Zhou received the letter. Looking at the letter, Premier Zhou also began to worry. Chiang Kai-shek is so arrogant. After all, it is still China's air defense problem, and it needs to be solved.

After thinking for a while, Premier Zhou picked up the phone and called Chang Qiankun to the office.

Chang Qiankun is the director of the Aviation Bureau of the Military Commission. He discusses air defense and finds him the most suitable one. After receiving the call from Premier Zhou, Chang Qiankun also entered Xihua Hall without stopping.

As expected, everything was as Chang Qiankun thought. Premier Zhou wanted to discuss air defense with him, which also made Chang Qiankun, an aviation talent, feel that he finally had a place to use his skills. Then, Chang Qiankun proposed the idea of ​​establishing an aviation school and cultivating his own pilots.

Premier Zhou agreed very much, and Chairman Mao even more agreed. Under the decision of everyone, everyone decided to arrange the aviation school in the Northeast and start to cultivate their own aviation talents.

Chang Qiankun

Immediately afterwards, Chang Qiankun led a large number of talents to the Northeast to start cultivating his own pilots.

Premier Zhou was a little worried, so he immediately contacted Chang Qiankun, how many pilots can take off and fight now? How many people can fly a plane? Can a flight team be formed?

Chang Qiankun nodded confidently, indicating that he would do it.

And this "right" lies in Chen Yun.

Chen Yun's foresight was praised by Premier Zhou

on Chen Yun?

is true.

As early as 1937, Chen Yun, who was the representative of Xinjiang at the time, used the relationship between our party and Xinjiang border defense supervision to rescue all the more than 400 Red Army soldiers who survived the failure of Western Route Army .

Chen Yun

After rescued, Chen Yun arranged them to Dihua , which is now Urumqi. Sheng Shicai supported Chen Yun very much, so he gave great support and help in the rebuilding of the troops. This 400-person unit also became a new unit under Chen Yun's arrangement, waiting for arrangements at any time.

1938, this army's opportunity came.

html In early January, Chen Yun found the troops and selected 43 outstanding Red Army cadres from them and sent them to Sheng Shicai's aviation training class in Xinjiang.

At that time, everyone did not understand it.

Indeed, the operations at that time had basically nothing to do with the plane, but Chen Yun spent a lot of time to send these people to study aviation. It was as ununderstood as everyone was eating apples but you had to grow rice.

Chen Yun

But Chen Yun didn't think so. Instead, he comforted these Red Army cadres earnestly, saying that you are the first pilots to learn flying in the Communist Party . You must learn technology and don't be afraid of being confused and looked down upon.

Everyone nodded and said they would study hard.

After the Red Army cadres entered the aviation school to study, everyone finally questioned Chen Yun, why did have to work hard to train pilots? Isn’t it more cost-effective to train artillery to go to the battlefield as early as possible? And we don’t have planes yet, why do we do this?

Faced with various doubts, Chen Yun explained that it is because pilots are difficult to train, so they should be trained as soon as possible. Besides, they learn to fly aircraft and then learn maintenance technology. When there is an aircraft, isn’t it complete?

With the support of Chen Yun, these 43 Red Army cadres entered the aviation school and began to learn to drive the Wu-2. At that time, the Wu-2 was a two-wing twin-seater light aircraft produced by the Soviet Union. Its maximum speed can reach 146 kilometers per hour, a ceiling of 2,000 meters, and there is no canopy cover. They speak entirely by a mouth-to-mouth call tube, which is considered a model that is difficult to learn and drive.

Wu-2

Even though it is so difficult, Chen Yun still insists on letting everyone learn how to fly Wu-2. As long as you have the experience of flying Wu-2, what kind of planes will you not be able to learn in the future?

These Red Army soldiers did not disappoint Chen Yun's expectations. Everyone returned from the failure of the Western Route Army and were considered to have died once, so they were all desperate and could not tell, so they would learn to tell.

Of course, these pilots did not come in handy in Anti-Japanese War and the War of Liberation, so everyone's attitude of incomprehension towards Chen Yun has continued.

Until 1949, Chairman Mao decided to start an aviation school to train pilots, and these pilots finally came in handy. The talents led by Chang Qiankun were , who had learned to drive Wu-2. They either became teachers of the aviation school or instructors, and worked hard to train talents in Chinese Air Force .

Zhou Enlai and Chen Yun

For a full 11 years, Chen Yun was not understood for 11 years. Until 11 years later, everyone finally understood Chen Yun's foresight, and Premier Zhou still couldn't help but praise Chen Yun for doing a great thing. Such a clever move, directly gave our Air Force a seed without cultivating, just waiting to sprout.

Liu Yalou was appointed as the commander of the Air Force

Chang Qiankun led everyone to the Northeast to open a aviation school, and Chairman Mao on the other side had a newer thought in his heart.

Immediately afterwards, Chairman Mao and Premier Zhou summoned Liu Yalou together, and the two decided to hand over Liu Yalou a new task, which must belong to Liu Yalou.

Indeed, Liu Yalou has had such rich experience in the army that few people can compare with him. He has participated in the Red Army, participated in the Long March 3 of , and later went to the Soviet Military Academy to study and drank foreign ink. In the academy, Liu Yalou had excellent academic performance and returned to China with various military and military knowledge he learned.

As soon as he returned to China, Liu Yalou was favored by Lin Biao. Lin Biao, who had always disliked laughing, even went out to welcome Liu Yalou to Northeast Democratic Alliance for Liu Yalou to break his rules.

Lin Biao

And Lin Biao, accompanied by Liu Yalou, conquered Tianjin, took over Peking, and took over the credit of the second of the three major battles, which must be Liu Yalou's credit.

Therefore, Liu Yalou is highly valued by Chairman Mao.

Then, Liu Yalou walked into the office of Chairman Mao Zhongnanhai . After seeing Chairman Mao and Premier Zhou, Liu Yalou raised his hand to salute. Before he could put down his hand, Chairman Mao quickly got up and called Liu Yalou to his side, revealing the task he called him today:

Want Liu Yalou to form an air force.

Liu Yalou was stunned for a moment. I didn’t learn from the Air Force, but the Army , so I can’t do this.

Chairman Mao shook his head and pretended to be embarrassed by Liu Yalou and said:

"Okay, I just want you, a person who thinks you can't do it."

Chairman Mao, Liu Yalou

Just when Liu Yalou was in a dilemma, Chairman Mao also took the initiative to explain that we went from Nanchang Uprising to the War of Liberation, and we fought ground wars, but now it is different. We completely fought from the army to the air force, from the ground to the sky, and the air force cannot be left out.

Listening to Chairman Mao's words, Liu Yalou had realized that he was going to contribute his life to the Air Force.

Since Chairman Mao believed it, it was hard for Liu Yalou to refuse. Everyone talked until late at night. After this conversation, Liu Yalou became the main leading cadre of the Air Force, and his mission was to establish the Chinese Air Force.

Yes, China will have such a day sooner or later, so why can't it be him Liu Yalou who will do it?

Chairman Mao chose Liu Yalou, and history also chose Liu Yalou.

Facts have proved that Liu Yalou is the right choice!

Liu Yalou rushed to Moscow to build an air force

Since he took office, Liu Yalou will never be silly.

Liu Yalou

Liu Yalou, who has always been decisive, soon met with Lu Liping, the director of the Training Department of the Aviation School. Lu Liping is the director of the Training Department of the Northeast Aviation School and has rich experience in training pilots in Shenyang and other places. So Liu Yalou planned to let Lu Liping follow him and act as his deputy.

Chairman Mao fully agrees.

Liu Shaoqi, who is far away in Moscow, has long been familiar with the domestic process. If China wants to develop aviation, it is not enough to rely on itself alone, and it still needs the help of the Soviet Union. Under Liu Shaoqi's contact, the Soviet Union is also very willing to help China build aviation, waiting for Liu Yalou to discuss specific matters.

Liu Yalou was very happy, but before going to the Soviet Union, Liu Yalou had to go to the Northeast Aviation School to see how Chang Qiankun's progress in training pilots. Fortunately, everything was moving as normal as Liu Yalou imagined.

Lu Liping

After patrolling Northeastern Navigation School, Liu Yalou hurriedly went to Zhongnanhai with Lu Liping to meet Chairman Mao and others. At the meeting, everyone decided to go to the Soviet Union as soon as possible to discuss the matter of help, and also decided on the next development process:

First, a one-year term will be formed to annihilate the enemy and bombing force to assist Lu The army crosses the sea to fight;

Second, due to economic difficulties, this negotiation of visit to the Soviet Union must be carefully calculated and not wasteful;

Indeed, is a bit serious now. It is entirely because the whole country is building an air force, so the construction of the air force can only succeed, not lose . Liu Yalou knew it was very powerful and decided in his heart that he would definitely do a good job in visiting the Soviet Union.

The meeting ended, and everyone's tense nerves finally relieved, and Chairman Mao also smiled and said that he invited everyone to a meal, which means practice.

Chairman Mao

During the meal, in order to ease the tense atmosphere of the meeting just now, Chairman Mao took the initiative to joke that the meal would be bland and boring. Since he moved into Peking, he has not been free in the countryside. He could eat chili peppers for every meal before, but now he can't eat it. Not to mention chili peppers, he can't even drink chicken soup.

After saying that, Chairman Mao pretended to be aggrieved and accused the health doctor and others, and everyone laughed happily.

At the dinner table, everyone was having a great time, and Chairman Mao was very excited. He also opened a bottle of grape wine in person to fill everyone with it. Although Chairman Mao had average alcohol tolerance, he still raised his glass to toast everyone. After three rounds of wine, Chairman Mao raised his glass to express his best wishes for Liu Yalou's trip to the Soviet Union.

Looking at Chairman Mao, Liu Yalou was both moved and encouraged, so he also stood up and raised his glass, saying that he would live up to the expectations of Chairman Mao and everyone. He believed that the Air Force would be able to build this trip, and the great cause of reunification of the motherland would be gradually realized!

Chairman Mao, Liu Yalou

After saying that, everyone stood up and raised their glasses to drink. It seems that everyone is very confident!

Then, Liu Yalou and his group set off for Moscow.

After arriving in the Soviet Union, Liu Shaoqi hurriedly picked up Liu Yalou and his group, and everyone came to the office building of the Soviet Armed Forces Department, and Huasilevsky Marshal also warmly received Liu Yalou and his group.

Soon, the negotiation meeting began.

Because of his experience in studying in the Soviet Union, Liu Yalou spoke Russian very well and showed his confidence at the negotiating table, which made no one present dare to easily despise the newly appointed commander of the Chinese Air Force.

negotiation meeting naturally could not be smooth sailing. we were careful in our budgets and naturally wanted to minimize budget expenditures. The Soviet Union seized the initiative and naturally gained the upper hand. So, the two sides held three talks.

Liu Yalou

However, after the unremitting efforts of Liu Yalou and his group, the final negotiations were successful. After the

negotiations ended, Liu Yalou expressed his gratitude to the Soviet Union Marshal Velcining. The Soviet Union's help to China was a concrete manifestation of the internationalism spirit , so Liu Yalou expressed his highest respect to the Soviet side on the spot.

Then, Liu Yalou passed all the negotiation regulations and subsequent results back to the country and sent them to the central leaders. The Central Committee of the Communist Party of China also quickly replied to Liu Yalou, and the central government fully agreed with the results of the negotiation.

With the consent of the central government, Liu Yalou can return to China.

Liu Yalou

It seems that The road to construction of the Air Force is about to get on the right track step by step, and your expectations for the future can also begin...
