Traveling through 1937, I came to fight against the Kwantung Army

As the sun rose, the golden light sprinkled on the wide runway of Tonghe Airport. With a nervous and excited mood, the young pilot Shen Hui stepped towards the fighter plane carrying his dream. His heart was beating like a drum, his breathing was a little rapid, but his eyes were firm, full of yearning for the blue sky.

Shen Hui boarded the plane with steady steps, fastened his seat belt skillfully, put on his helmet, and placed his hand lightly on the joystick.

Behind him sat Yin Xinjun, the chief instructor of the aviation team!

At this moment, the whole world seemed to be quiet, leaving only him and the steel behemoth that was about to soar into the sky.

The engine roared, the propellers kept spinning, and under the command of the ground crew, the plane began to accelerate and taxi. Shen Hui held the joystick tightly, feeling the impact of the speed. When the front wheels of the plane left the ground, his body leaned back slightly, and a wonderful feeling of weightlessness came over him. Then, the whole plane took off and rushed into the boundless blue sky.

Through the glass of the cockpit, Shen Hui saw the earth shrinking rapidly under his feet. The houses, roads, and fields all turned into small patterns. White clouds floated around him, as if they could be reached by hand. His heart was filled with shock and joy. This was the moment he had dreamed of. He finally realized his dream of flying.

The wind whistled in his ears, and Shen Hui's eyes swept across the instrument panel, concentrating on controlling the plane's attitude and altitude. He felt that he had merged with the plane, as if he had become part of the blue sky. In this first flight, he was fully aware of his responsibilities and mission, and was more determined to pursue his dreams in the blue sky.

Shen Hui is from Fangzheng County. More than a month ago, he saw the announcement for recruiting pilots. He met all the requirements. Being an adventurous person, he decisively signed up!

After 30 consecutive days of theoretical study and passing the exam, he finally got the opportunity for his first flight today!

The selection process is very strict. In the theoretical examination, only 16 out of the 5 students in the second squadron where Shen Hui was located passed. However, those who failed will have a chance to retake the exam one week later!

At present, the person with the longest flight time in the aviation brigade of Mulan Military Sub-district is the brigade commander Zhang Wenjiu, which has only reached 17 hours!

Everything has just begun.

The only reference textbook Yin Xinjun had was a Japanese Army Aviation textbook sent by the Northeast Aviation School from Mudanjiang City. In summary, a qualified pilot must complete at least 100 hours of flying and 10 months of training!

Speaking of the Northeast Aviation School, it was founded after a Japanese aviation unit surrendered to the Northeast Democratic Alliance Army. There are many Japanese pilots and instructors in it! The Northeast Aviation School can be said to be the cradle of the PLA Air Force!

When they learned that the Mulan Air Force was established, they were very enthusiastic about sending a few Japanese instructors over, but were rejected by Yin Xinjun!

It would be better to let the Japanese be the instructor himself. He can't stand letting the Japanese be the instructor!

It doesn't matter if you don't have a foundation, just start from the beginning. Yin Xinjun's current focus is not only on training pilots, but also on manufacturing aircraft.

But the current gap is machine tool operators, so in the near future, before the number of Class A employees reaches 500, he does not plan to start manufacturing aircraft, but will focus on training pilots. After all, guns, ammunition and artillery are eagerly waiting to be used on the front line!

Yin Xinjun believed that during the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea, the biggest gap between China and the United States was in the air, and the volunteer army had suffered enough from the lack of air superiority. If a large number of pilots could be trained, they would be able to compete with the Americans in the blue sky.

Unfortunately, the most advanced aircraft he currently has is the ME262 jet fighter. He also has an old German Stuka dive bomber, and the rest are some Japanese and German trainer aircraft!

At present, the most advanced aircraft manufacturing technology is still in the hands of Americans. We can only wait and see if we can seize American aircraft from the Kuomintang Air Force in the future!

Mulan City Government,

Su Fei, deputy secretary of the municipal party committee and deputy mayor, presided over the 77th mayor's office meeting this year!

Since the establishment of the municipal government, this office meeting has been held almost twice a week. There are simply too many things to do, and Yin Xinjun requires that all kinds of matters must be brought up at the meeting, and collective decision-making must be made, and only implemented after more than half of the votes approve it!

At every meeting, he was required to take careful minutes, which helped to avoid mistakes! This would prevent him from being held accountable if something was found out later!

Today we discussed an important topic.

"Several measures to support the development of private enterprises in the economic field of Mulan City!"

In order to build a war logistics system and develop the national economy, we must establish a strong machinery manufacturing industry, clothing, food and other light industries. However, relying solely on government investment will definitely not be enough!

We must rely on private enterprises, so that spring can come when all flowers bloom!

However, this topic would naturally cause great controversy. As expected, the county and bureau chiefs attending the meeting expressed their opinions after looking at the materials in their hands.

"I think the first one is inappropriate. Foreign capital entering Mulan City will be exempted from political review? How can that be possible? What if they are hostile elements hiding among the people? When prices soar, the troops will have to spend a lot of money to purchase food and clothes!"

"I also disagree with the second point. The government provides security, electricity and other services to the invested enterprises. Many of our people don't even have access to electricity yet, and now they are providing electricity to these capitalists? They are exploiting the surplus value of the vast majority of workers!"

"There is also a fifth clause. For the materials produced by the factory, the government will provide a guarantee under the premise of ensuring quality. If they cannot be sold, the government will purchase them all. How much money will this cost? We also need to run steel mills and schools. Everything requires money. Does the government have the ability to do this?"

"I have an opinion on Article 7. If private enterprises need special tools, equipment and raw materials, they can apply to the Municipal Supply and Marketing Bureau, and the Supply and Marketing Bureau will try to supply them at cost price. I don't understand. Since we can get these things, why can't we do it ourselves? Why give them to private enterprises?"

Everyone was giving their opinions.

Although the top leader Yin Xinjun was not there, everyone was enthusiastic in speaking and said quite a lot.

Su Fei observed calmly and found that most of the people who spoke were cadres he brought from various bases!

Su Fei and Yin Xinjun argued about this topic many times, but he was finally convinced because of one thing!

It’s land reform!

In the land reform in Mulan City, many farmers did receive land, and everyone was very happy and supported it very much!

However, due to the booming employment situation in Mulan City, many farmers have found jobs, some at construction sites, some in factories, and their income is higher than that of planting 10 acres of land!

As a result, many farmers simply subcontracted their land and became landlords like the landlords in the past!

Because the influx of foreign population in Mulan City has increased sharply, some of them are transferred from higher authorities, and some are farmers who migrated from other counties. They cannot find jobs for the time being, so they simply contract land to grow crops!

This causes the soil to change its taste!

To explain this phenomenon in Yin Xinjun's words, human nature is to seek profit and avoid harm. All industries rely on state-owned enterprises and have a big pot of rice. The end result is a waste of resources!

The final result of the argument between the two was that Su Fei also agreed to use some industries with low barriers and strong competitiveness as pilot projects!
