Chapter Eighty-Three: Countdown
After learning about Liu Yuan's relatives, Ma Chunhua muttered: "What a mess of relatives, your family is really messy." Having said that, she still agreed, after all, they are not distant relatives, although these neighbors in Gaotupo can also help, but Ma Chunhua has always had a high heart and does not want to involve others.
Ma Chunhua packed a bag of clothes, and went back to the factory overnight to participate in the study class, the so-called study class, is the cowshed, where personal freedom is imprisoned, and the detention center and prison are only the size difference, since the age of eighteen to join the guerrillas, Ma Chunhua's life has been infinitely beautiful, and now it has landed in this field, and the psychological gap is so big that it is unimaginable for ordinary people.
But Chen Bei fully understands his wife's situation, because he is not like this, the pride of the sky, the ace pilot, after the famous nobles, he was born handsome and chic, he was almost windy, rainy, but suddenly became lame, a security officer in the factory, and married a vulgar village girl, he was also in pain for a while, but in the end he survived.
"Spring flowers, there is no hurdle that cannot be passed." Chen Bei sent his wife to the factory gate and said solemnly.
"Got it, you can go back." Ma Chunhua said, and then walked quickly into the factory door, looking at the past, the factory hung huge slogans everywhere, the top of the house erected the statue of Chairman Mao, the workshop that should have been 24 hours a day machine rumbling was silent, a black hole.
Chen Bei sighed and walked back, and met four or five people coming over, all of whom were second-rate people in the factory, who had been punished by the guards for stealing materials, and now they all wore red armbands and became rebels.
When they met on a narrow road, Chen Bei did not dodge, but lit a cigarette and greeted him without fear, the rebels were a little surprised, and soon surrounded Chen Bei, took off the armed belt and carried it in his hand, and had the meaning of starting a fight if he didn't agree with him.
Chen Beidao: "I heard that a few of you are looking for me?" What's the matter, let's talk about it. ”
The rebel said: "Chen Bei, you don't play tricks, your director has already been masturbated." ”
Another person said: "Chen Bei, if you have a kind of gun, you will practice with us empty-handed." ”
Chen Bei sneered and lifted his coat: "Look clearly, I didn't bring a gun, and I still need a gun to deal with a few of you?" ”
Seeing Chen Bei's posture of playing with his life, he didn't dare to clash with him head-on, so he said a word: "Okay, there is a kind, next time we won't be so polite." A group of people left in a hurry.
Chen Bei took a sip and walked away.
When he returned home, his son was still asleep, and Chen Bei went to bed and lay down, tossing and turning, and stayed awake all night.
Early the next morning, Ma Chunhua came back, she said that the military representative was a good person, very reasonable, granted her leave, and had half a day to take care of family affairs.
So, the two sent their son to Liu Yuan's house together, only to find out that they knew each other, Liu Yuan's husband Zhang Guangyin worked as an artist in the propaganda department of the factory, he was very low-key, and he was an inconspicuous character.
Liu Yuan works in the district committee, the grassroots party organization is paralyzed, she has nothing to do, just take care of the children, anyway, Chen Guang is fourteen years old, and he is not a five or six-year-old doll, just take care of him three meals a day, and he doesn't have to stare at it.
Ma Chunhua took some food stamps to Liu Yuan, but was pushed back: "My own relatives, what's polite." ”
"My brother still has to settle accounts, your two children are not well-off, they should be." Ma Chunhua insisted.
Chen Beidao: "Take it." ”
Liu Yuan accepted it.
Then the adults talked together, Ma Chunhua was preoccupied and didn't have the heart to chat, Zhang Guangyin was also an introvert, and saw Chen Bei and Liu Yuan chattering endlessly.
Suddenly, Ma Chunhua felt that her husband and Liu Yuan were quite a good match when they sat together.
She immediately shoved the thought out of her mind.
After arranging the children's food and housing, Ma Chunhua and Zhang Guangyin returned to the factory to participate in the study class, and Chen Bei went to the provincial capital again, he had important things to do.
……
After learning that his daughter-in-law was defeated, Chen Zikun said: "Chunhua is implicated by the family, if she doesn't look for you, with her background and qualifications, no matter how ** she is, she can't be moved." ”
Chen Beidao: "It's not necessarily a bad thing that she was criticized, I was worried that I wouldn't be able to talk to her about it, but now it's okay, I guess it makes sense." ”
Chen Zikun said: "Let's try to keep it secret, you uncles and uncles don't dare to tell your family, your wife and children are unreliable these days, and you must not confide until the last moment." ”
Chen Bei nodded: "Understood." ”
The weather was good and suitable for a test flight, and the DC-3 was dragged out of the hangar by the truck and came to the runway, where the weeds in the crevices of the runway were removed, and the straight asphalt runway went straight into the distance.
Chen Zikun and his son boarded the plane, started the engine, taxied slowly, and the electronic and mechanical equipment was well operated and could take off.
The moment the plane rose into the sky, Chen Bei felt that his hands were trembling, and his adrenaline was secreted sharply, and after eighteen years, he finally flew into the sky again!
Fuel was limited, and after doing the necessary tests, the plane landed, and the mechanics cheered and gathered around, everyone was very excited, and they sent a scrapped plane back into the sky, making a significant contribution to the party and the country, and the pride can be imagined.
If they knew that the plane was going to fly abroad, they didn't know how to feel, Chan thought to himself.
The plane was repaired, and the plan entered the final stage, first of all, the departure of these mechanics, Chen Zikun made some commendation orders and sent them to everyone, so that most of them went home first and waited for the notice, because the recruitment of these retirees was originally a temporary task, so everyone was not suspicious.
The few people left behind are all trusted old departments, Chen Zikun plans to take them with him, and mechanics are needed on the way, and this old plane may have problems at some point.
The placement of the airport guard unit became the biggest problem, and these young Jiangbei peasants thought that they had really joined the army, but in fact everything was fake.
Chen Zikun thought twice and decided to set up another bureau to maintain the 39,000 troops after he left, fake the drama and sing, and let them become real soldiers.
Where to fly is a big problem, DC-3 has a range of only more than 2,000 kilometers, can only choose closer neighbors, North Korea, Mongolia, the Soviet Union, North Vietnam, these countries do not need to be considered, South Korea is not familiar with the place, it is not appropriate, Taiwan is also a politically high-pressure area, you can't go, not to mention that there may not be good fruit to eat, South Vietnam is at war, flying over to keep it will be shot down, no, Myanmar and Laos generation can fish in troubled waters, it is said that there are remnants of the Kuomintang entrenched, but there is no airport in that place, and it may not be able to land safely, If you think about it, only Hong Kong is the most suitable place to go.
The target, Hong Kong's Kai Tak Airport, Chan Zikun made the final decision.
The plan entered the countdown, and Chen Bei returned to Jiangbei to pick up his wife and children.
Chan also convened a meeting with his family, and the weather outside changed abruptly, and the whole family gathered in the hall at No. 17 Hubu Street to listen to him.
"I'm going to leave China, and you're going with you." Chan gets straight to the point.
None of them even showed a look of surprise, as if they had expected this for a long time.
"If you want me to say, I should leave in four or eight years." Jianbing is secluded.
"It's not too late." Lin Wenjing said.
"It's better to go back, it's better to go back." Liu Ting was thoughtful.
"What about Xiaobei's family?" Xia Xiaoqing still cares most about her children and grandchildren.
"Xiaobei has already made arrangements, you should also prepare, as long as the weather improves, you will leave immediately, take a plane."
"Yan'er, Jiao'er, is there a problem?" Chan asked his two daughters.
"I've wanted to see my mom for a long time." Chen Yan said.
"I'm with my mom and dad." Chen Jiao also said.
Chen Zikun nodded: "Let's prepare ourselves, don't bring too many things, the plane has a limited load, and the range will be affected if there are too many things." ”
Lin Wenjing said: "Do you want to inform Wenlong?" ”
Chen Zikun thought for a while and said, "Wen Gentian is timid, don't inform him now, when it's time to leave, just take him along." ”
At the same time, the old brothers are also having a showdown with their families.
Yan Su's children have long drawn a line with their father and actively moved closer to the organization, and Yan Xiaosong, the granddaughter he loved the most since childhood, even joined the Red Guards and slapped her grandfather in public at the 10,000-person criticism meeting, showing the qualities and political stance that a Communist Youth League member should have.
Therefore, Yan Su did not dare to confide in him, he did not even dare to live at home, he lived at the base most of the time, and returned home once a week to report his ideological dynamics to the neighborhood committee.
Grandpa's strange whereabouts attracted Yan Xiaosong's attention, she began to stalk, although Yan Su is also an old fox who has gone through vicissitudes, but no matter how cunning the fox is, he can't fight the hunter, Yan Xiaosong has been tracking to the 39000 troops in the suburbs, and saw his grandfather walk into a place where soldiers are standing guard, and the sentry also saluted Grandpa, and Grandpa was wearing a red collar and green military uniform.
It's all so strange and suspicious.
Yan Xiaosong did not tell her parents the secret, she did not believe in her parents' consciousness, and she did not report to the school military representatives, but secretly told her comrade-in-arms Xu Hongbing.
Xu Hongbing thought about it for a while, and also felt very strange, how could it be possible for the historical *** to wear an active military uniform, this is too unbelievable.
"It's likely to be a major espionage case, you continue to follow it, and I will report it to the relevant parties." Xu Hongbing said with a precedent matter.
……
During this period, thunderstorms were frequent, in order to ensure safety, it was temporarily impossible to fly, and after checking the meteorological station, it was learned that it began to clear on July 17, and there was also a large area of fine weather in the south, which was suitable for flying.
The day of action is set for July 17, this day cannot be shaken, and it must not be changed, because the matter involves many people, these people are either historical *** or rightists, they are all the objects of surveillance by the neighborhood committees, and large-scale changes will certainly arouse suspicion, although the grassroots political power is all paralyzed, but the military management team is not vegetarian, in case anyone investigates on a whim, it will be a catastrophe!
Chen Zikun sent a telegram to Chen Bei, and there was only one set of numbers: 717.
There are three days left until July 17.
