Chapter 65: Sleepless Nights in Beijing

The crash, the meteorite, the spy, these three things are mixed together, revealing weirdness, coupled with the short-lived electromagnetic storm in the place where the accident occurred, the crash of Kosygin's plane seems to have become a difficult mystery to solve, but all the politicians, military strategists and revolutionaries who have experienced strong winds and waves here have enough wisdom to solve this mystery.

Premier Zhou immediately ordered the communications department of the Military Commission to connect the telephone of the Third Garrison Regiment of the Ulanqab Military Subdivision in Inner Mongolia, which was not an easy task, and it required the operators of the three-level command organs to pass down layer by layer, and in the process of wiring, the Soviet government called through a high-frequency hotline and asked the Chinese head of government to have a dialogue, Premier Zhou first went to answer the phone call of the Soviets, called for more than ten minutes, and after coming back, he was exhausted and said: "The Soviet side does not believe that the plane was not shot down by our air force, They demanded that a 500-strong inspection team be sent to Outer Mongolia to collect the remains, search for the black boxes, find out the truth, and preserve the means of settlement, including the use of force. ”

The chairman said, "Let's talk about your views and work together." ”

Commander Wu of the Air Force took the case: "This is a serious violation of our sovereignty, and Lao Maozi thinks that the Chinese people are easy to bully when he has a few tanks and a few backfires, and this is no longer the era when imperialism can be lawless by putting a few cannons on the coast of China!" But...... In order to avoid the truth, you can let them investigate, control the number of people, don't 500 people, more than 100 people, 50 people are enough, and we will send people to do the rest. ”

Deputy Commander Lin frowned tightly and didn't say a word, and General Huang said slowly: "I think we still try not to fight and not fight, it's not that we are afraid of him, it's that we are not ready, nuclear weapons need to be tested, personnel need to be evacuated, and there is still a lot of work to be done, and it is not good for us to start a war rashly." ”

These are veterans who have fought in a hundred battles, fought against Japan, fought against the Kuomintang reactionaries, and fought against the Americans and the French, and they know very well the cruelty of war; with the strength of the People's Liberation Army, they cannot stop the torrent of steel of the Soviets at all, and they cannot maintain air supremacy; as soon as the war begins, it will be the life and death of millions of people, and they must be cautious.

The prime minister said: "Prepare with both hands, talk while preparing for war." ”

The confidential staff officer pulled the wire, came in with the telephone, and had already connected the phone to the 3rd Independent Garrison Regiment of the Ulanqab Military Division.

The prime minister personally spoke to head Wang and learned about the specific situation at the scene, and the call lasted less than ten minutes. ”

Guo Lao is Guo Moruo, he is not only a poet, but also a scientist, serving as the director of the Department of Social Sciences of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the director of the Institute of History, especially for archaeology, the war is imminent, why did the prime minister invite Guo Lao to come, everyone is very puzzled, and dare not ask.

Late at night on the streets of Beijing, the Red Flag car of the Central Guard Bureau sped to pick up Guo Moruo, who had already gone to bed, Guo Lao saw that the chairman and the prime minister were there, and there was a room full of marshals and generals, with his wisdom, he could guess that war was coming, but he couldn't guess what this had to do with his own literati.

The prime minister said: "Guo Lao, I will go straight to the point when time is pressing, Kosygin's special plane crashed in the airspace of Inner Mongolia, we suspect that it was shot down by a meteorite outside the sky, but this answer is not necessarily accepted by the Soviets, so please come to the staff, this meteorite has a volume of about cubic meters, a ton of weight, and the shell has colorful light when it just landed. ”

Guo Moruo is really a well-read talent, he thought for a moment and said: "China's meteorite records began in the Warring States Period. There is a record in the "Outside the Heavens", and it is also mentioned in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", but it is not an auspicious omen, every time it descends on the earth, it indicates a catastrophe, the explosion of Wang Gongchang during the Apocalypse of the Ming Dynasty, after my research, it was an explosion caused by a meteorite fall, and within a few decades, the Ming Dynasty perished, and the Tunguska explosion that occurred in Siberia in 1908 was also caused by meteorites, and not long after, the Russian regime fell. ”

Everyone's face is hard to look at, Guo Lao's crow's mouth, isn't this wishing that the people's power would be subverted.

Guo Moruo realized that he had lost his words, and hurriedly said: "Of course, this is just speculation, after all, this time it didn't cause a big explosion, in short, this meteorite is more peculiar, I suggest sending scientists to the scene to take a look at it first, and then hand it over to the Soviet Union as the culprit of the crash after the study." ”

The prime minister said: "Guo Lao thinks that there are several competent astronomers in China?" ”

Guo Moruo thought for a moment and said: "There are a few people in the Chinese Academy of Sciences, but they are all squatting in the cowshed." ”

The prime minister said: "Release them and fly to Inner Mongolia tonight to race against time to study meteorites." ”

This matter was handed over to Guo Lao, and the prime minister sent him a team of soldiers from the Central Guard Bureau, and if the rebels of the Chinese Academy of Sciences did not let them go, they would directly rob them, and if necessary, they could shoot them.

In fact, it was not so troublesome, and the rebels also knew the severity, and when they saw the one in military uniform, they were intimidated, Guo Lao rescued three cows, ghosts, snakes and gods from the study class of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, that is, the cowshed, and the reactionary academic authority, took them straight to Xiyuan Airport overnight, where a Trident of the 34th Division of the Air Force was ready, and the personnel set off as soon as they arrived.

It turned out that the US ambassador to Pakistan had sent a warning message to our diplomatic personnel in Pakistan through Pakistan, and according to the photos taken by US military satellites, there had been large-scale changes in the Soviet troops on the Sino-Soviet border, and strategic missiles aimed at the Far East had also begun to warm up.

The war is inevitable, the so-called investigation of the Soviet side is just a false shot, paralyzing the tactics of the Chinese, now is the time for the chairman to make a decision, he took a puff of cigarette, said in a thick Shaoshan Chong accent: "Afraid of a ghost, if you want to fight, I will not go anywhere, just wait for Brezhnev in Beijing." ”

As soon as Premier Zhou waved his hand, Wang Dongxing led four guards to forcibly put the chairman out, but the chairman did not resist, muttering: "What are you doing, you cowards." This scene is just like when the Kuomintang Air Force bombed in Xibaipo, and the bombs were rolling down, but the chairman had to stay in the house, and the guards forcibly put him in the air-raid shelter.

Outside the red flag car has been prepared, pull the chairman straight to Xiyuan Airport, evacuate to the rear by special plane, the rest of the people are also quickly evacuated, Deputy Commander Lin went to Suzhou, the other old commanders have their own places to go, only the Premier Zhou stayed in the Xishan command center, when dawn, Zhongnanhai was empty.

At this time, the trident carrying Guo Moruo and astronomers had already landed at Hohhot Airport, and the personnel of the Inner Mongolia Military Region were already on standby at the airport, and the experts did not even drink saliva, so they boarded the helicopter directly in the morning light and flew to the Siziwang Banner.

On September 12, 1969, the day after the crash of Kosygin's plane, the weather was sunny and cloudy, and in the defense area of the 3rd Garrison Regiment of the Allied Army Division in Ulanqab, a signal soldier stood on a mound of earth waving a red flag, and behind him was a large H composed of white cloth, which was the site for the temporary take-off and landing of helicopters.

The helicopter from Hohhot appeared from the clouds, the grass-green figure was buzzing and roaring, like a huge dragonfly, many of the soldiers of the garrison regiment had never seen a helicopter, and they all ran out to see the excitement, and were bombarded by the regiment commander.

The helicopter stopped, the rotors were still rotating, Commander Wang and Political Commissar Li ran over to greet them with their military caps in their hands, and four people climbed out of the cabin, three men and one woman, all of whom were quite old, and the man in the lead wore glasses, his hair was meticulously combed back, and he was wearing a blue tunic with two pens in his pocket.

Commander Wang didn't know Guo Lao, and was secretly despising him, but Political Commissar Li, who usually likes to write articles about tofu blocks, recognized this talented man and asked excitedly: "May I ask if you are Guo Lao?" ”

Guo Moruo smiled and nodded, bent down to leave the area where the rotor rotated, and waited for the noise to be quieter before saying: "Hello, I'm Guo Moruo, these are scientists from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and they are experts in astronomy and astrophysics......

He introduced the two regiment leaders to three scientists who had just been fished out of the cowshed, but their expressions were more like those of labor prisoners, and they were only submissive, they did not dare to talk much, and their clothes were quite shabby.

But when they saw the meteorite, all their spirits came up, and they came up to touch it, knock on it, and read the words, which were quite interested.

Political Commissar Li asked, "What's so peculiar about this big meteorite?" ”

A gray-haired scientist lifted his glasses and said: "It can be said that it is very peculiar, usually after the meteorite or meteorite is burned by the high temperature friction of the atmosphere, there will be a layer of black molten shell on the surface, as well as the flow pattern caused by the air flow, there is no meteorite on this meteorite, by the way, by the way, this is meteorite, not a meteorite, I have tried it with a magnetite, there is an iron component, but such a large volume, the weight obviously does not match, I suspect that it is hollow." ”

Two other scientists agreed, and the female scientist also said that there were two possibilities, that this thing was either a product of an extraterrestrial civilization or a space weapon made by the United States imperialism or the Soviet Union.

"Whether it's meteorite or space weapons, you can tell me the truth." Captain Wang said, "Isn't it a weapon, you can see it at a glance?" ”

The female scientist said: "The gap between our scientific and technological level and the United States and the Soviet Union is too big, the US imperialists have successfully landed on the moon, our first artificial satellite has not yet been launched into space, we are only studying astronomy, not aerospace, this has to be done with instruments, and nothing can be seen with the naked eye." ”

Commander Wang was very unhappy, and muttered that the more knowledge he had, the more reactionary he became, but for the sake of Guo Lao's face, he still treated him politely, and instructed the logistics department to prepare roast mutton to entertain these stinky old men, and then found a guard cadre in military uniform who accompanied the scientists, and asked him how to deal with the six Soviet spies.

"It's a waste of food to keep it, I think it's okay to shoot it on the spot." Head Wang said.

"For the time being, they can't be executed, so they will be escorted to Beijing, and the relevant departments will greet them well." The officer of the Central Guard Directorate replied.
