The golden wind brings coolness and the sweet osmanthus fragrance fills the air.

The years passed by quickly, like a fleeting white horse. Time was like a gurgling stream, rushing forward silently, and in the blink of an eye, it was already the autumn of 1950.

In this historic year, after a long and arduous struggle, mainland China finally welcomed the dawn of victory for its complete liberation. The land that had been devastated by war and turmoil gradually regained its vitality and peace, and was filled with the joy of new life.

With the advent of peace, the national economy has developed rapidly like a wild horse. All parts of the country have responded to the call of the country and actively participated in the rolling tide of mass production. From bustling cities to remote villages, people can be seen busy and full of hope in every corner. Machines roar in factory workshops, and workers work hard day and night; wheat waves roll in the vast fields, and farmers sweat and work hard. Everyone works together and works hard to get rid of poverty and backwardness as soon as possible and realize the great dream of prosperity.

As of September 9, which is approaching the first anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China and the beginning of the first five-year plan for national economic development,

The total installed capacity of the State Grid reached 1960 million kilowatts, a year-on-year increase of 360%.

Steel production was 1350 million tons, a year-on-year increase of 153%.

The national industrial output value rose to 859 billion! A year-on-year increase of 137%.

This year, the country's railway mileage increased by 1340 kilometers, and highway mileage increased by 5560 kilometers.

Just when the Chinese people rolled up their sleeves and worked hard to create a better life, the Korean War suddenly broke out!

Due to the outbreak of the Korean War, the US Seventh Fleet also entered the Taiwan Strait. Coupled with the navy's lack of large ships, the cross-sea operations were temporarily stopped!

Mulan Military Sub-district Headquarters,

In Yin Xinjun's office,

Three people stood in front of the North Korean map on the wall.

Fang Hao showed an incredible look on his face.

"Commander, your prediction is too accurate. The Americans have indeed landed in Incheon. Now, the Korean People's Army is in danger!"

Yin Xinjun looked at the map and said,

"They can't defend it at all. The gap in strength between the two sides is too big. In fact, no matter where the Americans land in North Korea, the People's Army will be trapped. Next, it depends on where the so-called United Nations forces will fight. I think this time, they will definitely not stop at the 38th parallel, but will go straight to the Sino-North Korean border!"

"If that's the case, then they are too arrogant. They clearly want to bring the war to China!"

"Don't worry, Lao Fang. We can't just sit there and watch. If North Korea becomes the sphere of influence of the Americans and they deploy troops on the border of Northeast China, and then they launch a surprise attack, then the great situation we have worked so hard to build in Northeast China will be ruined!"

Fang Hao showed admiration on his face.

"Commander, thank goodness you asked several arsenals to work overtime. If a war breaks out, at least there will be no problem with logistics supply!"

The five major arsenals of the Northeast Military Industry Group, Mulan, Changchun, and Shenyang are responsible for manufacturing aircraft, while Harbin and Dalian produce tanks, ammunition, etc., and they have never stopped in the past year!

Ding Shan said,

"Ever since the Americans interfered in Taiwan, they have had bad intentions. This time, if North Korea falls into the hands of the Americans again, we will definitely have no good days!"

Since the cancellation of the sea crossing operation in June, Ding Shan's 1st Combat Group was transferred back to the Mulan Special Zone. However, after the operation in Sichuan ended, Tang Yantian's 1st Assault Group was transferred to Beijing to be responsible for defending the capital!

There was a knock on the door,

"Come in!"

Communications Staff Officer Feng Qing came in with a telegram.

"Dear leaders, the Ministry of National Defense called and asked us to enter the first level of alert! And transferred the 1st assault group back to the organization and enter Tonghua to stand by!"

Fang Hao took the telegram, glanced at it, and handed it to Yin Xinjun.

"Commander, it looks like we're really going to have to fight!"

This year, the military organization underwent a major adjustment, and all field armies were abolished, but the Mulan Military Sub-district was directly under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of National Defense!

Yin Xinjun handed the telegram to Ding Shan and said,

"You are the only troop in our military sub-district right now. Ding Shan, get ready for battle!"

"Yes, Commander!"

Fang Hao also said solemnly,

"This year, so many military units have had their numbers revoked, but our two fast columns have remained unchanged. This shows how much our superiors value us! If they really enter North Korea, we will definitely be the first batch since we are close to them!"

Ding Shan said,

"Don't worry, Political Commissar. We have always strictly enforced military training and have never relaxed!"

On the coast of the South China Sea, the construction of Zhanjiang Port is in full swing.

This is one of the most important ports in the southernmost part of the Chinese mainland, with a prominent strategic position. It has been an important node on the Maritime Silk Road since ancient times.

On New Year's Day last year, relevant superior agencies carefully reviewed and discussed Yin Xinjun's report on building a military port and a shipyard in Zhanjiang, and finally made a decision. The Ministry of National Defense and the Ministry of Transport joined forces to build a shipyard, two military ports and a civilian port in Zhanjiang!

In order to support this super large project, the Ministry of Transport immediately launched the project construction of Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge, Guangzhou-Zhanjiang Railway and Zhanjiang Airport after New Year's Day. This is to allow related heavy equipment manufactured in Northeast China to be transported directly to Zhanjiang Port by rail!

Large infrastructure can boost employment, domestic demand, and national economic growth! This is the successful experience that Mulan Special District has already provided!

The first phase of the port project was just started on June 6 this year, because before that, it was necessary to build supporting projects such as power plants, cement plants, stone factories, as well as other transportation facilities such as railways and roads!

The construction site of Zhanjiang No. 1 Military Port covers a vast area, and is full of busy figures. Workers wearing straw hats or safety helmets sweat profusely under the scorching sun. Among them are local fishermen who have transformed into construction workers, as well as technicians from all over the country.

The roar of machines on the construction site continued, with bulldozers, excavators, and loaders shuttling back and forth. Trucks kept moving back and forth, delivering construction materials to designated locations.

Three kilometers east of the port is another equally busy large construction site, the Zhanjiang Shipyard, which covers an area of ​​more than 1000 acres.

A total of more than 30 construction companies from all over the country and more than 100,000 workers came to Zhanjiang. The builders came from all over the country and spoke different dialects. Among them were experienced old technicians and young people who were just starting out. Everyone ate iron pot meals together and slept on the floor in tents.

In order to ensure the progress of the construction, the local government set up a logistics support team. Every morning, fresh pork and vegetables are delivered to the canteen on the construction site on time. After the workers have eaten and drunk their fill, they are more motivated to work.

The waves of the South China Sea rushed towards the shore one after another. This magnificent construction scene is a true portrayal of the early days of the founding of New China when everything was in ruins and the country was striving to become stronger.
