"Who is this girl? She's blocking the door to our airport."
"It's better not to mess with that person, I can't afford it."
"What? Does this woman have a background?"
"Do you think there are many cars driving in the three towns of Wuhan? There are not many cars in Wuhan. This woman is driving a car so arrogantly. Do you think she is an ordinary family?"
"Don't guess. She is the eldest daughter of the Chen family. Not to mention her family has several factories, and many people have served in the military and political affairs of Wuhan. She is a big shot that we cannot afford to offend, so don't get upset."
"Then what is she here for?"
"Block our new king."
"New King? Who is it?"
"What kind of brain do you have. Li Hang! This is the pilot who shot down five Japanese planes by himself yesterday. Now some people call him the fifth king of the air force."
"Is he the same person who flew in on a Japanese military plane and was imprisoned?"
"You don't know yet, your news was from a few days ago."
"I had something to do at home two days ago, so I went back."
At this time, many people gathered around the airport entrance. In addition to the soldiers on duty, some pilots and ground staff who were watching the excitement in the airport came over curiously and were also observing the bold woman.
A plaid cheongsam wraps a pair of jade legs, a black fur coat is both warm and fashionable, a black top hat is worn on the head, one hand is wearing a white glove, and the other hand takes off the glove and puts it in his hand .
He was leaning against the car, glancing at the airport entrance not far away from time to time. His temperament made the soldiers at the door look away.
The pilots at the airport thought it was interesting, and someone whistled from time to time.
"Sister, is it appropriate for us to block the door like this? If my parents find out, they will probably blame you again." Next to him, a girl wearing a Japanese beret looked around with some worry when she saw the situation at the airport entrance.
"They just say, I like someone but they don't allow me to take the initiative?" The person wearing a black top hat was Chen Lu.
"Sister, you said the same thing to another pilot before." Chen Yin, who was a few years younger, couldn't help but expose her sister's shortcomings.
“待会儿你可不能乱说，你要是坏我的好事，小心我揍你。”陈露举起那没戴手套的右手，威胁着只有15岁的妹妹。
Chen Yin, who was wearing a Japanese-style beret, curled her lips. Thinking that her sister might really beat her, she decided not to talk any more.
After a while, there was a noise at the airport gate, and then Chen Lu saw the male idol she had just fallen in love with, and she smiled and raised her hands and waved.
And Chen Yin couldn't help complaining about her sister's fickleness.
"Ms. Chen, this is an airport. Is it necessary for you to do this? It will also affect the operation of the airport."
As soon as they met, Li Hang decided to be more aggressive and let Chen Lu retreat.
Naturally, he could tell that Chen Lu's family conditions were not bad. The car behind him was a luxury two-door model launched by Chevrolet a few years ago. This car is known as "one of the most beautiful cars before World War II" because it is eye-catching, compact and practical, with a plump and well-proportioned tail curve that fully matches its sporty appearance and excellent performance characteristics.
This kind of car would cost nearly a thousand dollars each in the United States. In the Republic of China at this time, I am afraid that even 10,000 French dollars would not be able to buy it.
"Why are you such a brother? I didn't enter the airport, how could it affect the operation of the airport?" Chen Lu complained with a pouted mouth, as if she would cry if she disagreed.
This made Chen Yin on the side stunned. Is this still her arrogant sister? The sun didn't come out from the west today!
And she was also very curious about the man in pilot clothes in front of her.
He was somewhat handsome, but he was very messy, with a lot of oil stains on his body, as if he had gotten out from under a car.
What's good about such a man?
"You are messing around here. People from the airport are coming to watch the fun. How come it doesn't affect the operation of the airport? It's not safe here. What if the kid's plane comes?"
"Aren't you here? You are the new king of the Air Force. Can't you protect me?"
"Uh. What kind of king? Don't talk nonsense!"
"I'm not talking nonsense. The newspapers said that you shot down six Japanese aircraft yesterday, setting a record for the Air Force shooting down Japanese aircraft in a single air battle. They say you are the fifth king of the Air Force."
"This is all reported indiscriminately by newspapers to attract attention."
"This was reported by the JoongAng Ilbo."
Li Hang really couldn't refute Chen Lu's answer.
This newspaper is the organ of the Fruit Party. Although it has been criticized, its status is really high.
"Ms. Chen, what can I say to you to let me go? I am just an ordinary person and I am not worthy of your appreciation. There are many children of wealthy families in Wuhan now. Can you go to them?"
"No, they can't fly planes, let alone shoot down so many Japanese planes at once."
"The lifespan of us pilots is quite short. Maybe the next air battle will be..."
Before Li Hang could finish speaking, a jade hand with a faint fragrance was placed in front of his lips, and then a gentle voice sounded, "I don't allow you to talk about yourself like that."
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
"Brother Hang, this is awesome!"
While Li Hang was stunned, various booing sounds were heard from the airport entrance, and whistles were heard one after another.
Li Hang subconsciously took a step back, with a sullen expression on his face, "Miss Chen, you have gone too far."
"I don't care, you agree to go on a date with me, or I'll just stay like this."
"Didn't I hear that you are still in school?"
"It's a holiday these two days! Besides, my classmates at school are marching every day these days, so I can't go to school."
"What on earth are you going to do?"
"I just said, promise to go on a date with me, and I won't disturb you for the next two days."
"Okay, let's talk about it later when we have time."
After all the hard work, Li Hang deceived the other party.
Were women in the Republic of China so bold?
The next day, December 24, 1937, people from all walks of life in Wuhan held a public memorial ceremony at the Hankou General Chamber of Commerce for the air force officers who died in the "218 Air Battle" and the civilians who died in the bombing. The principal of Micro Operations personally officiated.
In the air battle that took place on December 22, the Chinese Air Force, including the China Aid Air Force, lost a total of 8 fighter planes, of which 5 pilots were killed, including 3 Chinese pilots and 2 Soviet pilots.
In addition, due to the Japanese bombing, more than a hundred people were killed or injured.
Although the Japanese bombing was unsuccessful, Hankou Airport was not significantly damaged, but some urban buildings were also affected, causing many casualties.
This was the first time since the Marco Polo Bridge Incident that Wuhan was bombed by the Japanese army. It suffered a lot of losses, but it achieved a record of shooting down 13 Japanese aircraft. It is naturally worthy of celebration and memorial.
