Brief introduction of Wang Yanzhou
This ancient land is full of talented people. In War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, the War of Liberation and the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, a soldier shot down and injured seven enemy planes. He became one of the two pilots who shot down Japanese and American planes in the history of China War. He is China's first generation ace pilot Wang Yanzhou.
In the history of China Air Force, the name Wang Yanzhou should not be forgotten. Wang Yanzhou is not a big shot. He spent the first half of 15 and the second half of 50 years in Rizhao, Shandong, his hometown. However, from 1940 to 1957, Wang Yanzhou's military career experienced three important historical periods: War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, the War of Liberation and the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea. He served in the Kuomintang Air Force, the China-US Mixed Air Force Corps and the China People's Liberation Army Air Force successively. His highest rank in the army is only the captain of the China People's Liberation Army Air Force, and his final status is only a retired cadre at the place class level. However, he once shot down the plane of the Japanese aggressor army in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, shot down the fighter plane of the US Air Force in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, participated in the China People's Air Force and founding ceremony, and his fighter plane was reviewed by President Mao Zedong. Because of the political situation, Wang Yanzhou used to do such a very general job as serving tea and pouring water in the rural areas of Shandong Province, but he had the study experience of the Army Military Academy, and these experiences alone were enough to make future generations in the army envy him. Therefore, it is no exaggeration to say that the old man has a legendary experience.
Like Qian Qian's China soldiers who went out from the countryside to serve the country in Qian Qian, Wang Yanzhou, who once wore a military uniform in 17, was born in an ordinary peasant family in Dasunjia Village, Dongxiang, Rizhao County, Shandong Province on the fourth day of 1920 10. 1935, Wang Yanzhou finished his private school in his hometown and went to Qingdao as an apprentice alone. Qingdao at that time, under the rule of the Japanese invaders, was in chaos and the light was dim. Wang Yanzhou, an apprentice in Qingdao, couldn't help feeling the Japanese invaders' ambition to annex China. At that time, Wang Yande, Wang Yanzhou's cousin, served as the company commander of the 29th Kuomintang Army. Influenced by his cousin, it became Wang Yanzhou's urgent desire to fight against Japan and save the country as a soldier. Under the arrangement of my cousin, in the spring of 1936, 16-year-old Wang Yanzhou went to 29 army Beiping Nanyuan Military Training Corps for military training, and began his military career.
1On July 7, 937, the Lugouqiao Incident broke out, which shocked China and foreign countries. After the incident, under the command of General Tong, the deputy commander of 29 army, the military training regiment stopped the Japanese attack on Beiping City at Nanyuan Airport. Wang Yanzhou resolutely embarked on a battlefield full of guns with his classmates. The military training regiment failed to resist the fierce attack of the Japanese army and retreated. In the battle, General Tang died, and more than 3,000 young soldiers of the military training regiment died. Wang Yanzhou, 65,438+07 years old, and four other comrades fled to Shaanxi in the dark rain.
Wang Yanzhou didn't lose his dream of being a soldier when he fled. It seems that although the mountains and rivers are there, when the country is ruined, only the intersection with the invaders is the only business that the young man is willing to do. 1938, Wang Yanzhou took the entrance examination of Huangpu Military Academy 16, entered the Xi 'an branch of Huangpu Military Academy, and began to receive systematic and formal military education and training.
Two years of strict military training made Wang Yanzhou an officer. However, an accidental opportunity rewrote Wang Yanzhou's military history. 1940 65438+In February, just three days before graduation, Wang Yanzhou happened to see the job advertisement of Jianqiao Air Force Academy in the streets of An. Curiosity and adventurous spirit began to surge in his bones. He thought to himself, "Isn't it more enjoyable to fly a plane to fight devils?" Although his cousin, who is a company commander in the army, does not agree with him to apply for air force pilots for safety reasons, in wartime, as long as he joins the army, it means sacrifice. In Wang Yanzhou's view, for the sake of life safety, being an army and being an air force are essentially the same. Wang Yanzhou did not listen to his cousin's persuasion this time, but secretly signed up. With good physique and excellent personal qualities, he was successfully admitted. Wang Yanzhou first studied flight theory at Kunming Aviation School. Because of good physical condition and hard work, 194 1 was sent to the US Air Force for intensive training. 1943 In the spring, Wang Yanzhou, who returned from his studies, was assigned to the Eighth Squadron of the Third Brigade of the China-US Air Force Mixed Regiment led by Chennault, the founder of the Flying Tigers, and finally realized his dream of being a pilot.
After becoming an official air force, Wang Yanzhou really realized the weakness of China's air power. With sophisticated weapons and skillful flying technology, the Japanese Air Force has always been in an obvious dominant position in the battle with the China Air Force. While the Japanese Air Force bombed China indiscriminately, it often landed at our airport and pulled the flag of the airport. Wang Yanzhou was extremely angry at this arrogant and unscrupulous provocation, and he vowed to return the favor.
This opportunity appeared when Wang Yanzhou first performed a flight mission. On June 2nd 1944, the superior issued an order to send 22 fighter planes to cover 15 bombers to bomb Zhengzhou Railway Station occupied by Japanese troops. This is the first time that Wang Yanzhou has piloted a fighter plane to perform a task. The whole bombing process did not encounter much resistance. When the bombing mission was about to triumph, a small accident happened-the engine of the fighter plane driven by Wang Yanzhou suddenly stopped working. At this time, the comrades have come back, and Wang Yanzhou is in a hurry. At this time, the red light on the control panel lit up-it turned out that the left fuel tank was exhausted. Wang Yanzhou breathed a sigh of relief, turned the change-over switch and quickly raised the plane, ready to return to catch up with the comrades who left first. At this moment, he suddenly found a black spot in front. He knew that the plane that appeared at this time was probably an enemy plane. Sure enough, as the distance gets closer, the outline of the plane becomes clearer and clearer. With good eyesight, he can clearly see the pattern of the sun flag on the fuselage and recognize it as a "99" large transport plane of the Japanese army. Wang Yanzhou quickly turned on the weapon switch and prepared to fight. At the same time, the Japanese plane also found Wang Yanzhou. Because there are no weapons to fight on the transport plane, it is impossible to resist the fighter plane. The Japanese plane quickly turned around and wanted to escape. Wang Yanzhou refused to let go and pursued him. He quickly turned to the right rear of the Japanese plane, pressed a button and six machine guns fired at the same time. The bullet hit the fuel tank of the enemy plane, and the Japanese plane turned into a big fireball and fell straight to the ground. After returning to the airport, the ordnance officer found that only 18 bullets were used to shoot down the transport plane Wang Yanzhou. After winning the first battle, Wang Yanzhou said to himself: Although our equipment is not as advanced as the Japanese, improving the accuracy through hard training can also help us defeat the enemy. Wang Yanzhou devoted himself to the training battle with greater enthusiasm. Later, Wang Yanzhou shot down three Zero fighters and 1 Tojo fighter with his P-40N fighter, of which Tojo fighter was the latest model in Japan at that time.
Wang Yanzhou's destruction of a large Japanese transport plane was an accidental victory. This is achieved by his wit and courage. In the mixed air force regiment of China and the United States, Wang Yanzhou's wit and courage are also manifested in crossing the "hump route" called the flight restricted zone eight times.
1in the spring of 942, the Japanese invaders occupied Myanmar, cutting off the passage for China to transport goods from Southeast Asia. In the next three years, the only way for American aid to reach China is by air in the Himalayas. This is a creepy route with a total length of more than 800 kilometers. The mountains along the Himalayas are 4500-5000 meters above sea level, with the highest elevation of 7000 meters. The peaks rise and fall like the backs of camels, hence the name "Hump Route". It is by no means easier to carry out tasks on this route than to fight directly with the Japanese army. High altitude, bad weather, strong airflow, low air pressure, frequent snowstorms, hail and frost, and the siege of Japanese fighters, the plane is in danger of crashing into the mountain at any time. Looking down from the air, there are steep mountains and jungle-covered rivers below. If you make an emergency landing, even a safe landing is doomed, because there is no one in the forest, and even if the pilot is alive, it is almost impossible to get out of the virgin forest. During the Anti-Japanese War, nearly 600 planes crashed on this route, and 1000 people died on the hump route. With superb flying skills and firm will, Wang Yanzhou crossed this route again and again and brought in a lot of anti-Japanese war materials from India and other countries. In fact, it was safe every time. This is another legend.
After War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression's victory, Wang Yanzhou was transferred to the ninth theater command of Jinan Kuomintang Air Force. It was another accident that made a major turning point in his military career.
On April 20th, 1946, Wang Yanzhou flew from Sichuan to Jinan. After flying over Xuzhou, the weather changed suddenly and the visibility was extremely low, which caused the plane to deviate from the route. With years of flying experience, he landed in a wheat field-Qinghe County, Hebei Province, which was then a liberated area. In the Kuomintang army, Wang Yanzhou had heard many "facts" about the cruel treatment of prisoners by the * * * production party, such as "If a pilot falls into the * * * area, the transport pilot will be killed with a hundred sticks and the fighter pilot will be skinned alive", such as "All Kuomintang, once captured, unforgiven" and so on. Trembling in his heart, he carefully tried to hide himself, but he was finally captured by a militia. He made the worst plan in his mind, ready to accept the "torture" of the producer of * * *, but never imagined that he was first arranged to have a meal and rest in a family, and all the people were very enthusiastic to see him. During his short life in the liberated areas, he was arranged to visit many places and actually got in touch with the military and civilian life in the liberated areas. He recalled that at the beginning of the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, after eight years of arduous anti-Japanese war, the military and civilians of the whole country finally saw the hope and dawn of peace. People hope that the war will disappear forever, and the * * * Production Party strives for democracy and peace and safeguards people's interests. However, the Kuomintang ruling clique headed by Chiang Kai-shek insisted on dictatorship and civil war policy, attacked the liberated areas and provoked revolutionary civil war, which once aroused his dissatisfaction. After arriving in the liberated areas, what he saw greatly changed his mind. As a China person who deeply loves his motherland, the balance in his heart obviously leans to the producer side who represents the interests of the people. Therefore, when the leaders of the liberated areas asked him if he would like to stay, he agreed without hesitation, and joined the team that formed the China People's Liberation Army Air Force without hesitation, serving in the liberated areas and Mudanjiang Aviation School successively.
1 949 65438+1October1People's Republic of China (PRC) was established. In founding ceremony, for the grand military parade, Wang Yanzhou was selected into the founding ceremony flying formation, and was reviewed by Party and state leaders such as President Mao Zedong, Commander-in-Chief Zhu De and Premier Zhou Enlai.
"That is to accept the review of party and state leaders such as Chairman Mao and Premier Zhou!" Speaking of attending founding ceremony, Wang Yanzhou is always in high spirits. Founding ceremony Air Force Flying Force * * * has six flying formations, 17 aircraft. The first three detachments had nine P-5/KLOC-0 fighters, forming a three-character follow-up formation and passing over Tiananmen Square. Wang Yanzhou is in the second detachment, and he and pilot Yan Lei are left and right respectively. The sky was blue that day and the ground was clearly visible. When the plane approached the Dongdan archway, people and red flags could already be seen on the ground, and then the tanks, cavalry and artillery units of the China People's Liberation Army were vast. The motorcade roared through Tiananmen Square and was reviewed by party and state leaders. The square has become a boiling ocean, and Wang Yanzhou can even hear the cheers of the masses and the roar of plane motors!
No sooner had nine fighter planes flown over Tiananmen Square than they received an order from the ground commander to fly over Tiananmen Square again. The plane that has passed Tiananmen Square immediately increases its speed, turns right over Fuxingmen, along Xizhimen, Deshengmen and Dongzhimen, and then turns to Jianguomen. When it arrived over Dongdan, it happened to be connected with the trainer of Unit 6, so people watching on the ground thought that there were 26 planes being read. "
The establishment of the new China is something that makes everyone in China proud, but at that time, the reactionary forces at home and abroad were unwilling to fail and tried to strangle the new China in the cradle. 1On June 25th, 950, the Korean War broke out. The United States immediately adopted a policy of armed intervention, and our borders were seriously threatened. Faced with this situation, the Central Committee of China and President Mao Zedong decisively decided that Chinese people's Volunteer Army would go to the DPRK to participate in the war. At that time, Wang Yanzhou was transferred to the Fourth Regiment of the Second Division of Shanghai Air Force as the squadron leader. After the Korean War broke out, in June19511,Wang Yanzhou went to North Korea with his troops to participate in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea. In this way, Wang Yanzhou once again went to the battlefield, but this time his opponent was the US Air Force, where he had studied and fought together. But no matter what happened in the past, everything is secondary to the dignity and interests of the country.
The first battle on the Korean battlefield was on a snowy afternoon. Our fleet is a mixed brigade composed of destroyers and bombers, which flew into the sea after passing through Anton (now Dandong City, Liaoning Province). Soon, they found a black spot in the rear, flying fast and getting closer. It turns out that this fleet is the best ace plane F-86 in the United States, which is menacing and well-equipped. We lost wingmen 3 and 4 in the first round. However, Wang Yanzhou and his comrades did not panic. In the thrilling fight, Wang Yanzhou seized the opportunity of two attacks with superb driving skills and agile thinking. First of all, he saw an enemy plane following the bomber he was driving, which was very close, so a string of artillery fire hit him to ease his bomber. Then another enemy plane tried to attack the bomber he was driving. Wang Yanzhou locked the target with a sight while turning right. After a heavy shelling, the plane crashed into the sea with black smoke.
In this battle, Wang Yanzhou shot down and injured each American F-86 aircraft 1 frame, and won second-class merit 1 time. So far, Wang Yanzhou shot down and injured seven enemy planes in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, becoming one of the two pilots who shot down Japanese and American planes at the same time in the history of China War.
After the Korean War, Wang Yanzhou's original unit was greatly adjusted, and he was transferred to the Air Nine Division. 1955 obey the organization arrangement, change jobs to local jobs. At this time, his work is still related to aviation. 1July, 957, the "anti-rightist" movement began. Due to the so-called historical problems, Wang Yanzhou bears the brunt. First, he was forced to divorce his wife, and then he was sentenced to prison. In June, he was sent back to his hometown in Sun Jia Village, Rizhao, Shandong Province as a farmer.
After more than 20 years of war, Wang Yanzhou finally returned to this familiar and unfamiliar land after the war. In the countryside, it is necessary to do farm work, but Wang Yanzhou 15 left the countryside after finishing his private school. He killed the enemy with a gun in both hands, but never brought a hoe, so "farming" became the first difficulty he had to overcome. At first, he couldn't mow the grass, so he shoveled down more than half of the seedlings the first time. When pushing a unicycle, I once knocked out two front teeth because I didn't master the technology well. But with his seriousness and perseverance, Wang Yanzhou slowly groped and finally became a good hand at planting crops.
During the Cultural Revolution, Wang Yanzhou was framed as a counter-revolutionary and was supervised and reformed in the village. He didn't argue, but accepted it silently.
1at the beginning of 983, Xialai Sunjiacun Brigade, director of the United Front Work Department of the county, inspected the work, and the brigade sent Wang Yanzhou to bring tea and water to the guests. At this time, Wang Yanzhou has been a farmer for more than 20 years, and no one around him knows his glorious deeds on the battlefield. And Wang Yanzhou's straight body, determined eyes and resolute style all reveal his indelible military temperament. This caught Xia's attention and he began to talk with Wang Yanzhou. After a long talk, Wang Yanzhou's legendary experience surprised the United Front Minister. He was puzzled and asked Wang Yanzhou, "Why didn't you write and ask for rehabilitation?" Wang Yanzhou said flatly, "I'm used to it here." Minister Xia said to Wang Yanzhou with admiration: The state will not let anyone who has made contributions be buried with him. He decided to personally write to Yanzhou Wang to implement this policy. 1983 12. With the approval of the China People's Liberation Army Air Force, Wang Yanzhou was reinstated as a pilot of the uprising. The following year, his former unit also sent people to Rizhao to find him, announced the conclusion of rehabilitation, and handled the retirement procedures for him. Wang Yanzhou finally recovered his identity in his later years. The traces left by history on his face and the imprint of time on his hands are telling people about the old man's past intertwined with blood and fire, and even telling people about the heaviness of history after this extraordinary experience.
The legend of Wang Yanzhou lies in his special military experience and his special feelings for the Communist Party of China (CPC). Wang Yanzhou was a national party member in the Kuomintang Air Force in his early years. Because of that accidental landing, Wang Yanzhou came to the liberated area and announced his withdrawal from the Kuomintang. 195 1 year, Wang Yanzhou was ordered to participate in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea. On the day before flying to the Korean battlefield, Wang Yanzhou submitted an application for joining the party to the organization, asking the organization to review itself on the battlefield. Later, although his fate was bumpy, he took off his military uniform and returned to his hometown to farm, and his political reputation was repeatedly damaged, but his desire to become a * * * party member was always in his heart. "After decades of ups and downs, what happened around me made me realize the fact that only the * * * production party can save China ... I saw that * * * party member always stood at the forefront of production in any difficult situation. This made me realize that joining the party is very different. Now, I ask to join the China * * * Production Party. On the one hand, he can receive more education from the Party, on the other hand, he can do more things for the Party and the people in his lifetime ... "On August 20, 2004, at the age of 84, he submitted an application for joining the Party to the Party organization again.
On June 28th, 2005, to commemorate the 60th anniversary of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression's victory, 85-year-old Wang Yanzhou finally gave up his long-cherished wish for half a century and became a glorious party member, adding new brilliance to his life legend.
After decades of hardships, Wang Yanzhou wrote a legendary life with his own actions; I also used my own experience to fly over the vast historical sky.
