The Battle of Dengbu Island (Chinese: 登步島戰役; pinyin: Dēngbù Dǎo Zhànyì) was a conflict between the Republic of China Army and People's Liberation Army over (in the Zhoushan Islands) near mainland China. This conflict occurred from 3 November 1949 to 5 November 1949 and resulted in a Republic of China victory.[1]
Nevertheless, the ROC was later[when?] forced to withdraw when the PRC gained air superiority over the region, leaving Dengbu Island in the control of the PRC.[1]
