In 1949, during the Second Kuomintang and Communist Civil War, the Nationalist Government lost Huaihai campaign in January. Then Nanjing, Hangzhou, Nanchang, Shanghai, and Fuzhou have fallen. On October 17, Xiamen which is only a dozen kilometers from Kinmen have also declared a fall. The war in Kinmen is already on the verge of exploding. Where could the national government that has lost in succession be retreated to?

Around 2AM on October 25, the Communist army attacked Kinmen with more than 9,000 people from the 10th Corps Ye Fei’s troops. It also kicked off the prelude of the Guningtou Battle. This campaign is self-confident for the confident and full-fledged Communist army. In contrast, the National government which has lost its military defeat could only fight back.However, the result of the war was greatly reversed. Too optimistic and underestimated led to the fiasco of the Communist army. It was also the only battle that total destruction of the Communist army in the history of Kuomintang and Communist Civil War. On the other hand, because of the victory of this battle, the National Government was inspired by the morale of the National army. It was a great effect, followed by the victory of Zhoushan, Dengbu Island and the August 23th Artillery Battle. At the same time, it also strives for the National army to rehabilitate and lay the time and space for future reconstruction and prosperity.

However, this short period of only three days of battle, reversing the situation of Kuomintang and Communist Civil War, and laying the National Government to stabilize Taiwan, Penghu, Kinmen and Matsu. The key to winning is full of countless coincidences: the Communist army selected the night when the sea was rising, this day was just the end of the National Government’s exercise. After the exercise, the No. 66 chariot get breakdown on the

beach, causing all three chariots to stay on the shoreline for protection. Even more coincidentally, when the Communist army launched an attack, the No. 66 chariot shooter unintentionally fired the first round of ammunition, and the shell also hit the ammunition boat of the Communist army. This crossfire made the coastline from darkness to bright lit. This also caused the Communist army which was equipped and followed the sea rising to be killed one by one. This series of coincidences may be the "destination" in fate. It is doomed that the National Government should not perish, and it is doomed that the two sides will eventually have a long-standing opposition. It is doomed that the "Republic of China" will take root in Taiwan, Penghu, Kinmen and Matsu.

Despite the gradual easing of the political situation on both sides of the strait, the exploration of this past history is still in the ascendant. In 1949, the sergeant shooter Xiong Zhenqiu who was sitting on the No. 66 chariot, was also the shotter of this key projectile. It was also the witness of this night’s history. Today, the sergeant shotter is 88 years old. His body is still tough and he still lives in Taipei. Through his oral dictation, he looks back at the history he experienced at the time. Today, after 70 years, the war gave him what kind of feeling? However, for modern people who are used to a stable life. Is there any vigilant role in the distant term "War"?
