On August 8, 1981, a thrilling scene was staged in the airspace of the mainland. At that time, an unusual plane broke into the mainland airspace and went straight to Fuzhou Airport. This sudden incident immediately triggered a tense alert, and the airport personnel urgently reported to the Fujian Military Commission, and the entire airport entered a state of high combat readiness. More than a dozen planes were training nearby and quickly returned home, and ground anti-aircraft guns were also keeping a close eye on the unknown aircraft. However, the plane did not show any hostile behavior when landing, but only made an external action to identify the surrender, which made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
The pilot of this plane was Wong Chik Seng, and his arrival caused a huge sensation at the time. Why is the arrival of a Taiwanese Air Force pilot so eye-catching and touching Duke Deng's heart?
Huang Zhicheng's arrival changed the pattern of the mainland air force, and he crossed the Taiwan Strait to surrender, bringing with him countless fighters. However, loyalty is not always the most important thing for Taiwan's military.
During the Liberation War, a considerable number of servicemen of the National Army Air Force surrendered to join the PLA, and after the founding of the People's Republic of China, there was even the general manager of AVIC of the National Army who defected with 2,000 employees. Even after the retreat to Taiwan, deserters surrendered frequently. Since the 60s, 41 civilian and military aircraft have come to surrender. However, under the tight control of the Kuomintang, this gradually decreased, but in 1981, Hwang's surrender was a direct blow to the Taiwanese government.
Huang Zhicheng, the pilot who caused a sensation, flew the fighter plane directly to Fuzhou Airport on August 8, 1981. Fuzhou Airport was not on a military mission at the time, and the sudden appearance of an unknown fighter plane made people extremely nervous, fearing that it might be an enemy raid. The anti-aircraft guns quickly went into readiness, closely monitoring the unidentified aircraft, ready to shoot down as soon as there was hostility. However, the plane swung its wings as it approached the runway, a move that our military stipulated that foreign surrendering aircraft must take, and this scene made people breathe a sigh of relief.
The plane then landed smoothly, and a young pilot stepped off the plane, he was Wong Sik. He flew the most powerful F5F trainer fighter of the time. Huang Zhicheng's arrival attracted great attention from the mainland government, because his actions not only showed loyalty to the country, but also expressed the desire to join the mainland air force.
After returning to the motherland, he first returned to his hometown, looked for his relatives, and completed the ritual of finding relatives and worshipping his ancestors. Then, with love for the motherland, he resolutely joined the People's Liberation Army Air Force. Huang Zhicheng's surrender attracted widespread attention at the time, and even Chairman Deng Xiaoping personally received and praised his patriotic behavior. With joining the PLA Air Force, Huang excelled and was awarded the rank of colonel and appointed vice president of the PLA Air Force Academy. With his professional knowledge, he has cultivated a large number of outstanding air force talents and added strong combat effectiveness to the mainland.
So, what drove Huang Zhicheng to surrender and release the army regardless of the danger?
Huang was born in Taiwan, but his family background is related to a military family. His father and brother were both members of the national army and air force, and it can be said that the spirit of military spirit is in his blood. However, his desire to return to the mainland is inseparable from his love for the Air Force.
The Air Force has always played a vital role on the battlefield, whether in land or naval warfare, air supremacy is crucial. Especially in the 20th century, the situation in the Taiwan Strait was extremely tense, the air force became the focus of contention between the two sides, and the struggle for air supremacy became a key factor in increasing combat power. Influenced by his family, Wong had an unusual passion for the Air Force and quickly became a good pilot. However, after entering the army, he began to feel the problem of war history and orientation.
The Taiwan authorities have not only distorted the facts of the war, but have also worked hard to deepen hatred between the two sides of the strait. Huang gradually discovered that his real enemies should be foreign forces such as the Japanese and Vietnamese, not his own compatriots. He is extremely dissatisfied with the Taiwan authorities' designation of the mainland as an imaginary enemy, which runs counter to the education he received since childhood. He is convinced that the two sides of the strait are one family and should not become enemies, but the authorities have portrayed the mainland as the biggest threat.
Hwang was dissatisfied not only with the authorities' political tactics, but also with their guidance in the military. At that time, the army encouraged comrades-in-arms to report each other, and even set up special agents to investigate the contact between soldiers, which made Huang Zhicheng feel fear for the first time. All this made him want to leave the Air Force, but as a member of a military family, his inner loyalty still allowed him to persevere.
However, in the Taiwanese army, the authorities constantly advertise that their ultimate goal is to counterattack the mainland, not to return to the motherland. This confused Huang Zhicheng, because he was indoctrinated since he was a child that the two sides of the strait are one family. However, in the environment at that time, it was not easy to surrender and release the army, because the Taiwanese army had very strict control over the military. After realizing this, Huang Zhicheng began to secretly plan the surrender.
During his long military career, Huang Zhicheng met many comrades who had joined the army, and their experiences inspired him. Despite fear of being betrayed by his comrades or discovered by agents, Wong decided to embark on a plan to surrender to the army. During the exercise, he recorded the escape route, checked the relevant information, and finally chose Fuzhou Airport as the surrender site.
However, flying over the Taiwan Strait is not an easy task, since Taiwan's radar coverage is extensive and air defense measures are very tight. Huang Zhicheng knew that once he deviated from the course, he would be discovered by the enemy. He also runs the risk that novice pilots accompanying him may not follow him and surrender. However, he has already embarked on this path and must move on.
He pretended to be calm and continued to fly until the plane entered the air target area. This is the middle line of the Taiwan Strait and where he plans to get rid of radar surveillance. According to the plan, he should have escaped here. He tried to convince fellow novice pilots about the treatment of surrender and the benefits of the PLA. However, the novice pilot, convinced of the propaganda of the Taiwanese authorities, refused to follow him and surrendered, hoping to return to Taiwan. To avoid trouble, Huang took the risk and sent them back to Taiwan. He flew the plane to the sea near Dongyin Island and parachuted the novice pilot back to Taiwan. This is a very risky move, because by this time they have disappeared from the radar for half an hour, and the Taiwanese side must be looking for them.
Fortunately, along the way, they had a smooth ride, and the novice pilot also successfully parachuted, and then Huang Zhicheng turned the plane and flew back to the mainland. Although Huang Zhicheng's flying direction has long been observed by the PLA, the PLA remains vigilant because it does not know the intentions of the other side. Only after Huang Zhicheng shook his wings and lowered his landing gear did the PLA understand that he was a compatriot who had come to surrender.
Huang Zhicheng successfully landed at Fuzhou Airport, smiling and waving to the PLA. His surrender was a huge surprise for the PLA, as he brought with him the technology and knowledge they desperately needed. Huang Zhicheng became a member of the People's Liberation Army and made great contributions to the country.
As a representative of Taiwan's surrender to the army, his behavior showed loyalty to the country and also expressed his desire to dedicate himself to the country. After serving as vice president of the PLA Air Force Academy, he cultivated many outstanding air force talents and added strong combat effectiveness to the mainland.
So far, Huang Zhicheng's story tells us that blood ties cannot be separated by politics, and only by truly serving the people can we win the respect of the people. After surrendering, many Taiwan compatriots made outstanding contributions to the country and laid a solid foundation for the peaceful development of cross-strait relations. Despite some complicated political factors, we believe that with the joint efforts of the people on both sides of the strait, a beautiful moment of cross-strait reunification will eventually usher in.
