既有的二二八研究多以縣市的行政區劃為範圍，釐清事件的經過，本文則探 究雲嘉南地區在事件期間形成自成一體的跨鄉鎮支援機場與軍事駐地的行動。首 先，分析此區的飛機場何以成為眾所矚目之標的：一是作為聯外交通要道；二是 戰後接收的駐軍駐紮於此。事件發生後人們為了防備駐軍任意對民眾開槍，自發 地從沿海、山地的各鄉鎮分別向軍事基地與市區集合，獲取情報與支援戰事。其 次論述嘉義市如何成為談判路線與武裝行動的雙重中心，嘉義市民透過廣播電台 號召雲嘉南地區鄉鎮隊伍匯聚於嘉義市，並前往嘉義水上機場進行圍攻，與機場 駐軍對峙一時。最後詮釋人們在動員過程中展現鄉鎮內的分工與應對策略，雖得 益於戰爭時期的動員經驗，能因應突發狀況、迅速組織，但更重要的是，事件期 間人們展現自主、挺身而出的公共義務，也讓臺灣人再次感受到萬眾一心的社會 集體意識。

In previous scholarship of the February 28th Incident, most analyses have been focused on individual administrative areas. This article, however, moves beyond those areas and argues that people from various regions armed spontaneously and gathered in Chiayi with the aim of besieging strategic airports. The cross-town resistance of armed citizens from Yunlin County (雲 林縣), Chiayi City (嘉義市), Tainan City (臺南市) and Tainan County (臺南 縣) besieged the airports of Shuishang (水上) and Huwei (虎尾) against the Nationalist forces stationed there. This article includes three major sections. The first section explains why the airports became important targets. These airports played the crucial role as communication hubs to outside areas. The armed citizens, moreover, attempted to subdue the troops at the airports so as to prevent them from harming the populace. The second section of this article demonstrates how Chiayi City was a valuable mainstay in both the negotiations and the armed conflicts during this period. The article indicates that citizens of Chiayi City used radio broadcasts to advocate their causes and called on the people in surrounding areas to join the resistance. In addition, because citizens besieged the Shuishang airport and confronted with the troops garrisoned there, Chiayi became a vital center for the resistance movement. The final section of this article suggests that a series of actions taken by the people in the resistance—such as rapid response to emergency, quick assembling, efficient teamwork, and flexible strategy—may be attributed to their wartime mobilization during World War II. However, a sense of devotion to public duty and to group honor among the Taiwanese may have been the most important motivating factors. Such solidarity posed a major threat to the Nationalist Government during this armed resistance.
