Ye Anran didn't stay long.
He handed over the details of the anti-aircraft artillery regiment's next mission to Ma Jinhai.
Then he left.
He didn't have time to close his eyes for more than thirty hours in a row.
I feel like my brain is about to explode.
Ye Anran returned to the provincial capital, took a shower and went to sleep.
This night.
Ye Anran slept soundly.
Perhaps because of the joining of two seniors, Liu Jingjing and Xia Liguo, he felt confident even when sleeping.
Nine p.m.
Xia Mansion is brightly lit.
The phones in the study room and guest room are always busy.
Xia Liguo used almost all the connections at his disposal and kept in touch with close friends and relatives in the military, political, business, and academic circles.
The calls were placed from Hecheng to Jinling, Peiping, Shanghai, Shancheng and other places.
There were even many calls made to the British and French Concessions.
While Xia Liguo was on the phone.
As a student, Wang Qinghai, the president of Hecheng Dazhong Daily, was waiting in the living room early.
At the same time, many reporters and presidents from other media outlets in Black Province were waiting together.
at the same time.
Liu Jingjing wore glasses, held the copied phone book in his left hand, and rotated the numbers on the phone over and over with his right hand.
He made every call very carefully.
When the call was connected, Liu Jingjing had to reorganize the language in his mind.
In order to gain opportunities for students, teachers, friends, and classmates to come to Crane City.
nowadays.
The Japanese have electrified the whole country and are about to launch a full-scale war against the defenders of Hecheng.

How many people know that the gate of hell is closed, but choose to go to the gate of hell?
This night.
The trees want to be quiet, but the wind doesn't stop.
midnight.
Xia Liguo just met with reporters.
He explained to reporters the determination of the Black Province defenders to defend Crane City alone.
At the same time, we appeal to the anti-war forces across the country to send troops as soon as possible to assist the Black Province.
And inform industrial students across the country.
The Northern Aviation Heavy Industry Group was established in the flames of war and needed the country's unique and ingenious industrial elites who cared about their country to reinforce Hecheng.
in a statement that informed the nation.
Xia Liguo announced that he would advance and retreat together with all the elites who reinforced Hecheng.
Live and die together with the people of Hecheng.
0:15.
Xia Qiancheng entered the living room.
She happened to overhear the conversation between her father and the reporter.
In the sound of shutters of many reporters.
Xia Qiancheng saw his father's stature again.
She is an intellectual.
Knowing the consequences of his father's words.
With the status of Xia Liguo.
Once his remarks are published in the newspapers, there will be huge waves among the Chinese community tomorrow morning.
Those students who left under the orders of General Zhang, the elites with unique ingenuity, may even risk their lives to return!
Of course.
At this time, Crane City is in danger.
Her father was determined to advance and retreat with the millions of people in Hecheng. As a daughter, she would only silently support him.
Xia Qiancheng didn't know why his father made this decision.
But she had a vague premonition in her heart.
It must be related to a person.
The next day.
The message that Xia Gongguan electrified the whole country spread all over the country.
One stone stirs up a thousand waves.
More than a dozen industrial schools across the country called Xia Gongguan one after another, seeking ways to return He He.
at the same time.
Zhang Xiaoliu led the military commanders of the Northeast Army's brigades to retreat to the pass and asked for a battle in Peiping.
Please send troops soon to assist Hecheng.
Same day.
The military commanders of the three provinces of Hebei, Shandong and Henan called Beiping and Jinling, requesting to send troops to Hecheng soon!
Xia Mansion.
Liu Jingjing received dozens of calls early in the morning.
Is a classmate.
They are mentors and friends.
They were his colleagues who had worked with him at the Jinling Aircraft Repair Factory.
Before the Japanese were about to complete the blockade of Crane City.
They put life and death aside and requested one after another to set off immediately to enter the pass and enter the crane!
Hangzhou.
Jianqiao Airport.
The Flying Eagles.
Gao Zhihang took the morning newspaper and entered the Air Force Headquarters.
It was a rare chance to meet Air Force Commander Zhang Xiaoliu who had just arrived from Peking.
He knocked on the door and entered the office, spread out the newspaper and placed it in front of Zhang Xiaoliu.
Zhang Xiaoliu had read the newspaper.
He received a dozen telegrams early in the morning.
They were all telegrams from the military officers of the Northeastern Army under his command, requesting war.
The people he brought out in the first place.
Now I wish I could tuck my head in my belt and ask for military aid to Crane City.
The full text of Xia Liguo's telegram.
He awakened the proud soldiers who followed him out of his homeland in the Northeast.
Zhang Xiaoliu sat quietly.
He was wearing sunglasses and his eyes rested on Gao Zhihang's somewhat raw face.
"What's the meaning?"
Gao Zhihang: "What do you mean?"
"The Japs attacked Beida Camp, but the Northeast Army didn't release a single bullet, so we ran away!!"
"Now, the Japs are going to launch a full-scale attack on Crane City."
"You always look at me like this, right?"
…
Zhang Xiaoliu was silent.
A long while.
He said slowly: "Do you know how many planes are staring at Crane City?!"
"Do you know that Crane City is now a thorn in the side of the Kwantung Army and a thorn in the flesh of the puppet Manchukuo?!"
"What are you going to do to support Hecheng? Are you going to use your few broken planes to fight against the Japanese's one or two thousand planes??"
…
Gao Zhihang was stunned in place.
He looked at Zhang Xiaoliu in front of him, looking extremely strange.
He pointed at the newspaper, "Hecheng is still under the control of General Ye Anran and Ma Jinshan."
"Did you know there is an air force in Crane City?"
Gao Zhihang's eyes flashed with tears. He hated that he was born in the Chinese air force and could not guard the blue sky of the motherland.
"Hecheng's air force is internationally known as the Far East defected "air force"."
"Foreign pilots called "deserters" are in our territory, guarding our airspace and protecting our people!!"
"We are wearing the skin of the regular army, and in the name of the Chinese Air Force, we are doing cowardly things that even deserters can't do!!"
"Who is the deserter? Shameless!!"
Gao Zhihang slapped his desk angrily.
After saying that, he turned around and slammed the door and left!
door.
The Flying Eagles, who were standing in formation, looked anxiously at Gao Zhihang who left angrily.
Someone who dares to slam the door in front of the commander and leave.
His high direct flight is definitely the first!
nine in the morning.
Ye Anran woke up.
As soon as he walked out of the provincial capital gate, he met Uncle Dong waiting at the door.
Uncle Dong: "Vice Chairman Ye, Mr. Xia, please come to the Xia Mansion."
Ye Anran still doesn't know what happened.
This night.
It was a very peaceful time.
He didn't even hear the gunfire.
"Thank you, Uncle Dong."
Ye Anran got into the Ford sedan.
Followed Uncle Dong all the way to Xia Mansion.
When he entered the Xia Mansion, Xia Liguo and Liu Jingjing were waiting in the courtyard.
This made Ye Anran feel a little flattered.
He walked up and greeted the two elders, "Mr. Xia, Mr. Liu."
Xia Liguo: "An Ran, Mr. Liu and I called you here because we want you to open an air transportation route."
"Come inside and talk!"
Ye Anran was panicking.
Follow Xia Liguo and Liu Jingjing into the room.
What happened this night?
Why is it necessary to open up air transportation routes? ?
Ye Anran entered the room and took a seat.
Xia Liguo said slowly: "Currently, we have received news that Japanese warships have blocked Jinzhou and Yingkou."
"All the railways entering and exiting Shanhaiguan have also been blocked by the Japanese."
"This makes it impossible for the elites who are about to enter Crane City to assist us to enter Crane City smoothly."
"So, can you please ask the Far East Air Force to provide convenience?"
