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