What this episode covers

Guest: Carl Zha, podcaster Recorded: October 28, 2021 In part 2 of our series on the First China-US Cold War, we look at a handful of significant — and bloody — battles in the weeks and months after Mao's Communists took control of mainland China: The Battle of Kinmen, off the coast of China's southern Fujian province; the Battle of Dengbu, part of the Zhoushan island chain off the coast of Shanghai; and the Hainan Island Campaign in southernmost China. Kinmen Is. has long been the gateway from mainland China to Taiwan, and it's making a comeback as a flashpoint in the current Cold War sequel.
