In 1949, Chiang Kai-shek was defeated and withdrew from the mainland. After this, he led the remnants of his army to the defeated generals, entrenched in Taiwan Province, and always looked at the mainland tigers, and tried to make a comeback.
His naïve and somewhat absurd wish was not fulfilled until his death. After Chiang Ching-kuo took over Chiang Kai-shek's post, he also adopted an extremely stubborn strategy because he was deeply influenced by Chiang Kai-shek.
He even put forward the three-no strategy of not allowing contact, not allowing peace talks, and not allowing compromise. Such a policy has seriously affected cross-strait exchanges and caused great inconvenience to the masses in the two places.
However, the feeling that blood is thicker than water on both sides of the strait has not been severed. In 1986, a Boeing plane from Taiwan Province, piloted by the captain, deviated from the course without authorization and landed in Guangzhou.
Before landing, the captain also shouted through the equipment many times, please let me land, please let me land, I want to go home.
The captain, wang xijue, is a senior cadre of the aviation department of Taiwan Province, and his living conditions have always been very good. Why would he abandon his affluent life in Taiwan Province and risk his life to return to the relatively poor mainland?
In fact, this has a lot to do with Wang Xijue's personal experience, he was born in Suining district of Sichuan Province, and was recruited by the Nationalist Army because of his excellent physical fitness as a teenager. I went to study at the Air Force School.
When the Nationalist government was completely defeated, Wang Xijue was forced to leave the mainland and live in Taiwan Province. As an air force cadet, Wang Xijue's life on the island has always been very good, and the National Government has provided him with a lot of welfare benefits in order to train more excellent pilots.
Later, Wang Xijue was promoted step by step with his own efforts and became a captain. Because of this, when Wang Xijue flew the plane off course and flew back to the mainland, many people in the National Government did not understand it very much.
Wang Xijue resolutely returned to the mainland, mainly because he missed his family and relatives, and after he was forced to leave the mainland, he lived on the island for nearly 40 years and did not contact his family for a long time.
He missed his loved ones at home in particular, and he had been secretly traveling for a long time in order to get in touch with his family. After several turns, Wang Xijue, with the help of his friends, used letters to get in touch with his relatives on the mainland.
When he learned that his mother had unfortunately died, Wang Xijue's heart was like a knife, he hated himself very much, why did he not return earlier, why did he not accompany his mother before her death to perform filial piety? Every time he thought about these questions, he cried to tears.
With the passage of time, the guilt in Wang Xijue's heart became stronger and stronger. Finally, Wang Xijue finally made up his mind and took advantage of the opportunity to carry out the mission to fly a Boeing plane to land in Guangzhou.
After Wang Xijue expressed his intentions, he soon received warm hospitality from the Guangzhou area and also had the opportunity to reunite with his relatives at home.
After the news of this incident, it soon caused an uproar. The cadres within the National Government have some contradictions and conflicts because of this matter.
Some people believe that if they make contact with the mainland because of the plane thing, it is equivalent to breaking the previous "three noes" policy, which will seriously affect their subsequent development. Instead of regretting it at that time, it is better to simply abandon the plane, pretend that nothing has happened, and continue to maintain a confrontational posture.
Some people also believe that China Airlines only has two Boeing aircraft, and if they do not return to the plane, the loss will be very large, and it will seriously affect their face.
So, what happened? When Chiang Ching-kuo learned of this, he was extremely angry and very dissatisfied with what Wang Xijue had done, and directly called the person in charge of China Airlines for a lecture.
According to relevant information, at that time, a Boeing aircraft, worth at least 60 million US dollars, was both an important means of delivery and a huge wealth for the national government.
Thinking about it, Chiang Ching-kuo finally tried his best to defy the public opinion and arrange for the person in charge of China Airlines to contact the aviation department of the mainland.
Before China Airlines was in charge of negotiating people and conducting the judgment work, Chiang Ching-kuo repeatedly asked him to maintain a high posture, not only to return the plane, but also not to lose his face.
At that time, the mainland already had nuclear weapons, and its overall strength increased by leaps and bounds. The National Government, which is entrenched on the islands, has long since lost the strength and confidence to confront the mainland head-on.
Therefore, when the person in charge of China Airlines heard Chiang Ching-kuo's request, he agreed one after another on the surface, but in fact he smiled bitterly.
It is worth mentioning that although the mainland occupied an absolute advantage at that time, it did not think of using this matter to exert pressure on the National Government.
Although Wang Xijue's China Airlines is inextricably linked to the Nationalist government, it is still a civilian enterprise on the surface. If the mainland directly detains the plane, it will seriously affect our international image.
So when the head of China Airlines came to negotiate, we made a very generous concession and handed over the plane to them.
During this period, the people of China Airlines still had to make demands that the mainland side hand over Wang Xijue and other crew members to them.
If Wang Xijue was really brought back, he would definitely be punished extremely severely. The person in charge of the mainland said that our side fully respects Mr. Wang Xijue's own wishes and will not let him suffer any harm.
In the face of the mainland's tough attitude, the responsible person sent by Chiang Ching-kuo soon lost the courage to continue negotiations, and replied somewhat perfunctorily that Mr. Jiang did ask us to ask for people, but Wang Xijue could not go back, and we could not manage it.
In this way, the two sides took a step back and ended the negotiations in a relatively pleasant atmosphere.
However, the problems caused by Wang Xijue did not end completely like this. His return is an extremely obvious sign.
Under his influence, more and more Taiwan compatriots have developed feelings of homesickness, and they have strongly demanded that the National Government relax restrictions and allow them to return to their hometowns to visit their relatives.
At the strong demand of the broad masses of the people, Chiang Ching-kuo, forced by helplessness, abolished the original three-nos strategy and allowed the two sides of the strait to communicate and exchange.
In 1987, thousands of compatriots in Taiwan Province returned to the mainland, which they thought about day and night. This ironclad fact proves once again that the two sides of the Taiwan Strait are brothers who are as close as one family and will not be completely separated because of the malicious obstruction of some people.
The return of treasure island is an inevitable trend of history. Those who have a suspicious mind, no matter how much they struggle, this result will not change anything.
With the continuous improvement of the overall strength of the country, this trend has become more and more obvious, and some ambitious people, although they are still stubbornly resisting, have reached the point where their donkey skills are poor, and the more they struggle, the more they will force themselves to a dead end.
