Huang Zhefu ~ In March 1945, he served as the pilot of Wang Puppet Second Lieutenant. On August 20, 1945, the name was changed to Yu Fei. This is his autobiography.
④ Commander Su Yu and other leaders warmly received me
As night fell, the sky was full of stars and everything was silent. The heat on the earth has not subsided and it is still very muggy.
Thousands of fireflies are flying in the sky, as if welcoming us to the road to new life. The guerrillas led us up the mountain at starry night.
People who are accustomed to city life are suddenly walking over mountains and ridges in the dark and on rugged trails. Their legs seem to be out of control. They are either kicking stones or stumbling around like they are drunk. The guerrillas encouraged us, and the revolutionary will inspired us. Finally, we arrived at a mountain villa after midnight. We were both sleepy and tired, so we fell asleep without knowing where we were.

The next morning, I met Comrade Peng Haitao, Secretary of the Xuancheng County Party Committee. It was July 7th. I reported to him our plan to organize an uprising. He immediately welcomed us and introduced us to the Communist Party's policy towards uprising personnel.
He said that this was a major event and he had to report it to the head of the military region, who would immediately send someone to send us to the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Military Region Headquarters. At that time, the Qin family requested to return to Nanjing first. The county party committee respected his opinion and sent someone to escort him down the mountain. Comrade Yu Hua was also sent to lead a squad to escort me to Tianmu Mountain in Changxing County, Zhejiang Province. They were afraid that I wouldn't be able to walk on the road, so they even brought a stretcher. Although my feet were blistered and it hurt a little to walk, I still kept walking.
On the second night, we walked quickly and passed the enemy blockade lined with bunkers.
On the third day, we arrived at the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Military Region. Commander Su Yu, Chief of Staff Liu Changsheng, and Director Zhong Qiguang received me very warmly.
I reported to them the situation of the Italian and Wang Puppet Air Forces. Commander Li was very happy after hearing this. He said:
"You are welcome to revolt. However, this is a major matter, and I will report it to the military headquarters and the Yan'an Party Central Committee immediately." He also explained to me the current situation between the enemy and us, saying:
"The enemy Kwantung Army is moving south in large numbers, preparing to fight to the death when the US military lands on the southeastern coast. Our army is also deploying to flank the Japanese army. The Kuomintang army is far behind, but the diehards are still causing trouble and waging war. Friction. Recently, we smashed the siege of seven divisions of Gu Zhutong and captured one of their division commanders (this news is on the wall of the village). "Commander
Su continued: "The big counterattack is coming. I hope your uprising will succeed." He told me to rest first and wait for a few days.
Life in the mountains is tough, especially in a war environment. When the meal started, the guard brought the food and said with a smile:
"Commander Su specially gave you a special extra dish, two preserved eggs." It is true that two preserved eggs are not high-level nutrition for a pilot, and people living in big cities who have food and drink cannot be considered an improvement in life. However, it was a rare thing in that difficult war environment.
I quickly said: "Thank you, Commander!" I was very touched by Commander Su's deep affection.
Three days later, Commander Su and Chief of Staff Liu talked to me again, and said that the central government had sent back a message: "Stand by and cooperate with the counterattack."
Commander Su also briefly told me about the counterattack situation in the Anti-Japanese War, which was both an education and an encouragement to me. He also told me to be cautious and vigilant. Obviously, he was a little worried about me, a young man with no experience in underground work.
When he introduced the situation in Yan'an, he said:
"There is an airport there, and there are very few planes coming and going. Because there is a US military observation group in Yan'an, and sometimes planes are sent to support..."
He asked me to change my original name to contact him, and told me that his pseudonym was Zuo Ru, as well as his contact person and contact location in Nanjing and Yangzhou .

Commander Su was very talkative and spoke very clearly and concisely.I didn't know in advance what code name I should give for this line of work, so I thought about it and said:
"Can I call you Yu Fei?" Commander Su smiled and nodded and said:
"Okay! Let's call him Yu Fei!" After that, I contacted the party under the name "Yu Fei" and said that Comrade Zuo Ru introduced me.
The chief of staff asked me about the route back to Nanjing. I said that it was not safe to go back the same way, so it was best to take another route.
Later, the chief of staff discussed with other staff members of the military region and said to me: "It is better to take the Zhangzhu-Yixing-Changzhou-Nanjing road." The next day, several fully armed comrades were sent to take me down the mountain. I stayed overnight on the way, and the next day, several guerrillas in civilian clothes were assigned to escort me. After walking for a long time, they said: Zhangzhu is not far ahead, and it is inconvenient for us to send him off again. I think that's right, it's not like we're going to fight. They said goodbye to each other and went their separate ways.

Editor's note~ The editor collected and printed the manuscripts of the Kuomintang pilots' self-reports on the uprising more than 20 years ago. It was planned to compile "Memoirs of the Kuomintang Airmen's Uprising", but it was not possible due to various reasons. Now compiled into a series and published on the headlines.
