Chapter Thirty-Four: The Mysterious Nine Machine Division
The relatives of those scientists who have been developing two bombs and one satellite in the Northwest Gobi all the year round only know a mailbox code, and it takes a lot of energy and time to deduce the actual address from the code, and this is exactly the condition that the crossing team does not have, and they must solve the problem in a short and quick way.
Seeing that everyone was silent and worried, Professor Xing smiled and said: "I have been studying this for the rest of my life, and the archives I have consulted are vast, and the old experts I have interviewed are not a hundred but eighty, although they are tight-lipped and will never say half a word that should not be said, but I still analyzed some clues from the clues, and the department responsible for the research and development of artificial humans is the Nine Machine Department that has never existed in history." ”
Liu Yanzhi's knowledge structure is relatively simple, and he doesn't know what the machine department is, so he asked while driving: "What does the nine machine department mean?" ”
Professor Xing said: "It is the meaning of the Ninth Ministry of Machinery Industry, taking the Seventh Machinery Department as an example, formerly known as the Fifth Research Institute of the State Council, the research direction is intercontinental missiles, from the first machine department to the eighth machine department, including civil machinery, weapons shipbuilding, nuclear industry nuclear weapons, tactical missiles and strategic missiles, all of which are the sharp weapons of the country, these eight ministries, to the eighties have been changed to companies, only the ninth machine department, only in the top secret documents have a scale and half a claw, ordinary people do not know that there is such a department, in fact, artificial people are in the field of biochemistry, and the machinery industry does not match, using a name like the Ninth Machinery Department, also to cover the identity. ”
The old man's eyebrows fluttered, and he was triumphant, Liu Yan nodded frequently and admired it directly, the party had long been aware of these things, otherwise he would not have spent a lot of money to invite Professor Xing here, so he just smiled and said nothing.
Professor Xing suddenly changed the topic, and the party was patriotic: "By the way, how are you going to deal with the things you promised me?" ”
Liu Yanzhi saw Professor Xing's ravinely old face glowing with excitement and sickly red light in the rearview mirror, and thought of the young Professor Xing in the prime of life in the 216 cowshed, and the party's patriotic commitment should be related to that young man.
"Don't worry, I'll do it." The party swore a patriotic oath, but Liu Yanzhi saw a trace of perfunctory on his face.
The crossing group needs to find a place to stay, the barracks are not allowed to go, because there is no legal identity, and the hotel guest house cannot live, because it has long been occupied by the heads of all walks of life, they can only choose to requisition the dwellings, after some selection, finally found a small farm yard in Liujiadun, on the outskirts of Hankou, negotiated a monthly subsidy of five yuan, and requisitioned two private houses, but the food and bedding had to be arranged by themselves.
The next task is to establish contact with the Americans, and Professor Xing took the initiative to ask Ying, saying that you are not suitable, only I, the stinky old nine, have the least firm position, and it is the most suitable for me to deceive and surrender, and they must be convinced.
One was for him and Professor Xing to go to the Xuangong Hotel to contact the Americans, and the other was for Liu Yanzhi to sneak into the Donghu Hotel to carry out the mission with the cooperation of Lei Meng and Yu Hanchao.
The East Lake Hotel is the state guest house of Hubei Province, located on the shore of the East Lake, with beautiful scenery and green trees, before the outbreak of the war was similar to the existence of the palace, Chairman Mao often stayed here, after the central government moved inward, some organs under the central government requisitioned here, and the central leaders lived in a more private and safe place.
The security standards of the hotel are extremely high, vehicles and pedestrians are not allowed to stay on the peripheral roads, the roads are full of guards in civilian clothes, patrolling and guarding day and night, the central guard regiment is responsible for the security work inside the hotel, and the defense is impenetrable, in addition to a battalion of soldiers, there is also a tank company, two anti-aircraft artillery companies, and even a fly can not fly in.
The jeep passed by the main entrance of the Donghu Hotel quickly, and the three people in military uniforms watched sideways, and there were sandbags and steel welded horses piled up outside the gate, and a steel helmet flashed with cold light, and the outline of the Type 59 tank in the trees in the park could be vaguely seen, and the possibility of breaking through was equal to zero.
After going around in a circle, Liu Yanzhi made a decision: "Take the waterway." ”
The security of the East Lake Hotel is too strict, although there is no surveillance camera, but three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry, completely rely on the naked eye to observe, higher than the efficiency of high-tech, it is impossible to sneak in, only from the waterway infiltration, there is a little success rate.
"That's all it can be." Lei Meng agreed with Liu Yanzhi's suggestion, Yu Hanchao had no opinion, the reconnaissance methods he learned were too dependent on high-tech equipment, and basically did not come in handy in 1970, but he was still somewhat sure of swimming.
"I'll go too." Yu Hanchao said, "Cover you." ”
Liu Yan smiled: "Thank you, I'm used to being alone." ”
They chose to go into the water at the north gate of Wuhan University, Liu Yanzhi took off his military uniform and shoes, put them in a watertight bag, and went into the water wearing only swimming trunks.
Watching Liu Yanzhi swim farther and farther, Yu Hanchao asked with some concern: "Can he succeed?" ”
"He's not an ordinary man." Lei Meng replied, raised the telescope and looked at it again, his face suddenly changed: "Oh no! ”
Yu Hanchao grabbed the binoculars and looked, it turned out that a motorboat came to the lake, and used a searchlight to check the water surface, and the snowy pillar of light swept all the waters over and over again.
Liu Yanzhi also saw the motorboat, he took a deep breath and plunged into the water, the water quality of the East Lake is clear, looking up can see the pillar of light cruising on the water, the moonlight is very good tonight, even if there is no searchlight, you can see the people swimming 100 meters away with the naked eye alone, the motorboat has not left for a long time, it is still circling in this area, Liu Yanzhi held his breath, feeling that his lungs were going to explode, he didn't dare to exhale loudly, for fear of exposing the traces, he could only spit out one bubble after another.
"If he doesn't get out of the water, he's going to suffocate!" Lei Meng on the shore said eagerly, trying to make some movement to divert the attention of the motorboat, and the other two patrol boats also drove over, the sound of the motor suddenly sounded, the machine gun was set up on the bow of the boat, and the guards held binoculars and carefully searched every corner.
"I can only ask for more blessings." Yu Hanchao's heart was pounding, and he sweated for Liu Yanzhi, although he thought that his heart was in Cao Ying and he was in Han, but at this moment, he couldn't help but stand on the side of the crossing group.
The last bit of air in Liu Yanzhi's lungs was squeezed out, and he would suffocate to death if he didn't get out of the water, but when he got out of the water, he would be beaten into a hornet's nest by machine guns, and he waited for the motorboat to leave, and in one minute, two minutes, and three minutes, the motorboat not only did not go, but increased from one boat to three boats.
Poof, it was the sound of divers entering the water, wearing rubber diving suits, carrying compressed air bottles and finned water ghosts from the boat turned over into the lake, this is an obvious signal, the guard force has found the water divers, Liu Yan drank a big sip of water in a hurry, and actually relieved himself, he tried to drink another sip of water, it seems that oxygen is transmitted from a certain part of the body to the lungs.
Another miracle appeared, Liu Yanzhi had the ability to breathe underwater, but always relied on absorbing oxygen molecules in the water, and it didn't take long for the stomach to burst, he tried to breathe through his nose, and was ready to be choked, but he was not choked, after the lake water entered the nasal cavity, the oxygen molecules in the water were decomposed and filtered into the trachea to reach the lungs, and the rest of the water was spit out directly from the mouth.
Liu Yanzhi dived to the bottom of the water, quietly hidden, waiting to give a fatal blow to the water ghost who was searching for him, the diver swam over with his flippers, a dagger hanging on his belt, and a flashlight used underwater in his hand, searching for something in the water and grass, passing by Liu Yanzhi several times, but due to the low underwater visibility, no trace of him was found.
Ten minutes passed, the divers were still searching, but Liu Yanzhi couldn't wait any longer, he saw the opportunity to swim away quickly, diving all the way to the direction of the hotel, swimming and swimming found a fine underwater steel wire mesh, which extended to the surface of the water, which is probably a facility to prevent divers from penetrating, but it is not very useful, Liu Yanzhi brought wire scissors, cut out a hole and easily drilled through.
On the shore of the lake of the hotel, a drenched man climbed out, quietly hid in the bushes, dried his body, changed into a military uniform, put on leather shoes, wore a military hat upright, and hurried out with a briefcase.
This is the core area of the hotel, no one will check the documents, although it is late, but the people coming and going are still dense, most of them are wearing military uniforms, the line is in a hurry, the East Lake Hotel occupies a very wide area, dozens of villas are located in the greenery, the trees are luxuriant, it is easy to hide the whereabouts, Liu Yanzhi according to the information that was later decrypted, gradually approached the office area of the central organ, hidden in the bamboo forest.
Liu Yanzhi's sense of smell is very sensitive, he can smell the body odor of people and animals within 100 steps, not far from the small building of the Central Military Commission's Communication and Confidential Bureau, there are two guards, a wolf dog, and on the nearby road, there is a group of six people patrol, passing by every 15 minutes.
The bamboo forest is the best wall, the bamboo is very closely spaced, and there are thorns and barbed wire in the middle, which can't be drilled through at all, but this is not difficult Liu Yanzhi, his light skills have far surpassed the master of Yanzimen, and he went to the top of the bamboo forest as soon as he jumped into the communication bureau like a martial arts master.
It was late at night, and there were still people working overtime in the Confidential Bureau, Liu Yanzhi didn't bother them, walked along the corridor to the end, and saw a door marked with the archives.
What is stored here are all kinds of telegram orders and instructions recently issued by the head of the Military Commission, involving military production, troop deployment and combat plans, and the archivists are extremely professional in classifying and placing these documents so that they can be seen at a glance, which greatly facilitates Liu Yanzhi, he quickly found the folder of the Ninth Machine Department, and opened it with excitement and apprehension, but it was empty.
