The troops in Tonghua City were indeed extremely empty, the patrol police and tax police were driven out by Qi Qingyuan on the grounds that the prime minister ensured the safety of the prime minister, and only the guard battalion of the 1st Division and the old Qing patrol battalion of Zhang Huanrong were responsible for the garrison of the city. The specific arrangement of the defense area was that the unaware guard battalion was stationed outside the city, the former Qing patrol battalion who knew nothing about the inside situation was stationed inside the city, and the people surrounding the Longmen Inn were members of the Zhang Rong Republic and Radical Association.

Although the people in the city wore steel helmets, camouflage, and submachine guns, they were all showboys, and they either scattered everywhere or broke through without brains when they were on a real occasion. Most of them came for Zhang Huanrong's generous rewards or old feelings, and only a few were members of the Republican Radical Association who were really willing to sacrifice their lives for the Democratic Republic. However, it is assigned to these people that it is just to prevent the Prime Minister's Guard from breaking through.

When the assault battalion was airborne, the guard battalion outside the city thought it was a bombing, so it urgently opened fire into the air, but when the sky was not clear, they saw someone jumping off the plane, they were all dumbfounded, but the alert battalion officer still immediately ordered the troops to enter the city, but as soon as they jumped out of the plane and fell to the ground, they immediately set up a sniper position, and the bullets splashed over like water, and the guard battalion was cut off from Tonghua City, and only a small group of soldiers could penetrate it.

The guard battalion belonging to the regular army outside the city reacted like this, and the hundreds of rabble in the city were even more helpless, those led by Liu Danian of the Republican Radical Association were fine, and the other patrol battalions who saw the 'Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals' were frightened and even threw away their guns - in the words of the later interrogation: How dare they mortals go against the Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals?

Most of the more than 500 troops in the inner city lost their guns, and only the more than 100 backbone of the Republican Radical Association in charge of the Dragon Gate Inn defended desperately, but the level of these people was only to shoot targets and throw grenades. Real street fights don't know how to fight at all. While guarding the streets, the enemy emerged from the rooftops; When the roof is on guard. The enemy rushed out of the house again. In less than a few minutes, several paratrooper squads broke through the perimeter defense area. Kill at the main entrance of the inn. If it weren't for the radical governor Liu Danian, who temporarily dropped the machine guns blocking the back building and suppressed them, they would have been beaten by the ferocious assault of the paratroopers.

The defenders' machine guns were set up on the third floor of the main building of the inn, which was out of reach of mortars and bazookas, and there were no houses connected to the inn nearby, which made Fu Zuoyi and others who were attacking the front sigh under the suppression of the four continuous standard machine guns. He looked at the building and sighed, and Liu Danian, the leader of the radical association and the governor of Liaodong after the fact, also looked at the building and sighed - Yang Rui did not live in a small building surrounded on all sides, but a back building; On his side, he used machine guns to suppress the heavenly gods, but the two machine guns of the Prime Minister's Guard also suppressed the radical soldiers who wanted to take advantage of the chaos to capture or kill Yang Rui. This one suppresses the other, what a mess!

When the battle in the main building of the Longmen Inn was fierce, Ye Yunbiao had already ordered someone to blow up the back wall of the back building, and after cleaning up the Radical Society defenders arranged here, the wall of the inn was also blown up, but Yang Rui was still in the basement. Staying where you are is best without allies and until you are broken through by the Radical Dead.

The paratroopers determined that the Prime Minister was at the Dragon Gate Inn, but it was completely unknown which building he was in, because the main building resisted fiercely. made everyone mistakenly think that the prime minister was there, but when Xia Mingzhang, the commander of the paratrooper company who had accidentally hit him, led dozens of people to push the wall from the northwest corner, just like the attack on the Futai Yamen in Hangzhou in the history of Xinhai, he suddenly saw the guards of the prime minister's guard raising their guns. Before the bullets hit, he shrank back from the base of the wall. Then he shouted the action code: "Tian Heng! Tian Heng!! ”

"Xiang Yu!" Xu Caigen, the deputy of the guard, responded loudly in joy, and he asked people to report to the basement while guarding the surroundings. In particular, beware of sudden enemy shelling.

Xia Mingzhang saw Yang Rui in the door that exploded in the back building, and Yang Rui was wearing a set of reinforced body armor at this time. He returned the salute with displeasure and anger, and then asked, "Thank you for your hard work!" What's going on out there now. How will you arrange it? ”

A sentence of hard work made Xia Mingzhang's heart hot, he hurriedly took out the map, pointed to the main road of the city only one street away from here and said: "Report to the Prime Minister!" We will rush here immediately, the main road is more than 20 meters wide and more than 150 meters long, which is enough to rescue the planes to take off and land. Xia Mingzhang loudly introduced the escape plan with the demeanor of a soldier. When we leave here, I'm going to hit a green flare to signal that the rescue has been successful and we're heading to the landing site; After arriving, a yellow signal flare is played, indicating that the troops control the landing site and the aircraft can land; Finally, a red flare is played, indicating that the clearance is over, the plane will take off immediately, and the rescue operation will be over......"

"How many people can sit on a plane? Can Mr. Qiu, Mr. Wang and others who are trapped in the front building be rescued? Although he knew that the plane could not take everyone, Ye Yunbiao still hoped that the more people who walked, the better; As for Qiu Jin and Wang Ji, this is what he asked Yang Rui for him.

"Report to the Prime Minister: The gunfire in the front building is intense, it should be the troops who are rescuing." Xia Mingzhang said: "There are only two planes, one of which is a standby; Each aircraft can only carry two people. ”

As soon as he heard that he could only carry two people, Ye Yunbiao was immediately disappointed, but Yang Rui, who was familiar with the plane, knew that this was the limit. Normal aircraft take off and land more than 300 meters, which is certainly not a problem in the field, but it is not easy to find a wide and straight street in the city, and now the take-off and landing is compressed to less than 150 meters, which is a miracle. But in this way, he can only leave with himself and his son, and then there is Ye Yunbiao and a guard who will leave randomly.

"Where are you going to fly after takeoff?" Yang Rui asked out loud, he was worried that the paratroopers did not know about the rebellion in the northeast, but he did not expect that he did not know the rebellion in the whole country.

"Report to the Prime Minister: Prepare to fly to Lushun Naval Airport, and then fly to Baoding after refueling." Captain Xia Mingzhang, who did not receive the order and was not on the same plane as the battalion commander, really did not know that the landing site had been changed to Pyongyang.

"No way!" Yang Rui shook his head, although Lushun is a naval jurisdiction, no one can guarantee that they did not participate in the rebellion. "You have to fly out of the Northeast and in the direction of Gyeonggi." He was worried about the fuel and asked, "Is there enough gas?" ”

Because any soldier has the possibility of finding the prime minister, because all the officers of the assault battalion know the rescue plan, Xia Mingzhang meditated and said: "According to the plan, they can fly six to seven hundred kilometers." At least you can get to Qinhuangdao. ”

"Good!" The plans have been sorted out, and there is no need to discuss the plan in the rain of bullets. Yang Rui nodded immediately. As for the candidates for the guards other than himself and his son, he thought for a while and said, "Except for Yun Biao." You bring in someone to accompany you. After the plane takes off, if you can't break through, surrender to the defenders, don't be brave, I will definitely save you! ”

"Understood, Commander." The guards were happy to see that the prime minister was saved, but when they heard that the defenders were going to surrender, their morale suddenly sank.

Seeing this, Yang Rui had to add, "I'm not reluctant, it's better for you to choose." However, it must be understood that surrender is not a disgrace to honor. I want each and every one of you to live. ”

As Yang Rui spoke, Xia Mingzhang had already fired a green signal flare into the air, which meant that the prime minister had been successfully rescued, and the direction in which the flare fell was the direction of the landing site of the aircraft, and all the paratroopers who saw the flare had to concentrate there to protect the safety of the plane when it took off.

As soon as the green flare was raised, Fu Zuoyi, who had just risked his life to knock out a machine gun of the defenders with a bazooka, saw it, and a soldier slapped it in the air and said happily: "Battalion commander." See! Succeeded, rescued the Prime Minister! Rescued the Prime Minister! ”

"What?!" Fu Zuoyi looked up at the green signal flares rising higher and higher in the daytime, and was very surprised. Fortunately, the flares only pass through its color and orientation, not through the number of pieces. So the information is certain - the troops have successfully rescued the Prime Minister, and now they are rushing to the landing site, and the ministries are asking to quickly move closer to me.

"Leave a platoon here to pinpoint it. The others leaned in with me immediately. Fu Zuoyi, who put down a big stone in his heart, felt a little regretful, he thought that the prime minister was in the main building. He casually named a platoon commander. "You stay here to contain them, and the others follow me to the landing site. Again. Anyone who sees the prime minister must pass on an order: that Gyeonggi is not safe and the plane must fly to Pyongyang! ”

"Yes, sir!" Except for the soldiers who were going to stay here, the rest of the soldiers were drinking. They then gathered their weapons and prepared to bypass the Dragon Gate Inn to the landing site.

The speed of Fu Zuoyi and others is not fast, but Yang Rui and others move faster. At this time, the defenders in the city were only left with the main building of the Dragon Gate Inn, and the others had collapsed; Then there were the soldiers of the guard battalion who had infiltrated from outside the city, and they were approaching the Dragon Gate Inn little by little under the help of the paratroopers, trying to get there quickly before the enemy killed the prime minister. It can be said that at this time, there is no resistance in most places in the city, and Yang Rui and his party are like no one.

Soon, the yellow signal flare rose, and two prepared high-tailed, short-distance take-off and landing planes Harrier generally rushed down from mid-air, and Captain Zhou Baoheng, a veteran pilot from Hainan Airlines, parked the plane on the main road of the city very beautifully. After Yang Rui and the others got on the plane and the paratroopers on the roof of the 200-meter street said that they were safe, the red signal flare rose into the air again, and the plane, which had already turned around, began to taxi under the roar of the engine, and after 150 meters, they took off lightly above Fu Zuoyi's head, and the whole process took less than two minutes.

"Oops!" Fu Zuoyi was shocked, he was worried that the prime minister did not know about the drastic changes in the country, and the plane was likely to fly to Lushun.

"There!" The staff officer who was traveling with him suddenly pointed to a roof under the plane and shouted, and then pulled the trigger of the submachine gun, but the range of the submachine gun was too close, and the bullets did not hit; And on the roof where he pointed, several soldiers of the 1st Army who had infiltrated were shooting at the planes that were flying high. Although the staff officer's submachine gun was not fired, it was enough to alert the other paratroopers, and soon, when the paratroopers on the roof of this row were all aimed at the soldiers, they fell.

"Did the radio station unfold?!" Fu Zuoyi asked anxiously. At this time, he must immediately report the matter to the Baoding headquarters.

It doesn't take more than half an hour for the parachute to descend so far, but the heating time of the tube radio station takes half an hour, not including the adjustment time required for the parachute to shake, so his words are equivalent to asking in vain. The company commander Xia Mingzhang, who knew that he had made a great contribution, hurriedly ran over and said, "Battalion commander, the prime minister has already flown to the direction of Qinhuangdao in Gyeonggi, should we occupy the Longmen Inn and rescue the other adults?" Or should it be withdrawn? ”

"What!" Fu Zuoyi was shocked, and his face changed drastically. I was afraid that the prime minister had just come out of the wolf's den and entered the tiger's mouth, but Xia Mingzhang's rescue was too smooth and too fast. "It's not safe over there in Gyeonggi! How is this good? How's that good?!! He suddenly raised his head and exclaimed, "Prime Minister!" ”

"What!" Xia Mingzhang was immediately dumbfounded, and he said in horror: "Could it be that Gyeonggi also rebelled?" ”

"Build a line of defense now!" Fu Zuoyi shouted from the bottom of his heart. "We must send and receive it to Baoding immediately, and then send someone to Qinhuangdao to meet the prime minister. Otherwise, ......, or we are all sinners! ”

When Fu Zuoyi ordered the establishment of a defensive line. Major General Wang Xiaozhen was rushing to Tonghua City with the armored battalion, but at this time, the 1st Army had already received a telegram from General Qi Qingyuan that the paratroopers who had defected and imprisoned the prime minister and rescued the prime minister were sent by the Prime Minister's Special Office, and that the 1st Army must immediately stop fighting with the paratroopers. After reading the telegram, the chief of staff, Major General Wei Lijin, almost lost his breath. Fortunately, the order is dead, and the Special Office of the Prime Minister said that whoever is a friendly army is a friendly army.

In addition to sending people to urgently pursue the division commander Wang Xiaozhen, the division headquarters also urgently telegraphed the guard battalion outside the city to inform its commander of the military region, General Qi Qingyuan, that the paratroop unit was a friendly force to rescue the prime minister, and that the fighting with the friendly forces must be stopped immediately. Although the guard battalion was surprised, it was a telegram from the division headquarters, and he quickly called back to confirm it; And Wang Xiaozhen's side because there is no gasoline engine spark plug interference. The radio was finally contacted, but when the parties called out the truce, Yang Rui was gone.

"Can you intercept the Prime Minister's plane?" In the Baoding General Headquarters, Wu Xifen was very irritated by the Valkyrie operation that was disturbed by the chaos in the capital, and he didn't know if those who received the secret telegram were dead, or they deliberately did not carry out the content of the secret file, except for the army, the local branches and the government did not call back. And now that the assault battalion has such a big basket, if Fu Zuoyi stood in front of him at this time, he probably couldn't help but kill him.

"The Air Force has already been ordered. The Navy also ordered, but ......," Zhang Liandi said uneasily, as he had been worried that the order to fly to Pyongyang had not been fully conveyed, and now it was. But there's nothing you can do. It is not possible for every transport plane to have a telegraph receiver, and even if there is a radio on the Prime Minister's plane, it cannot be turned on until they have landed. Thinking that the landing site was near Gyeonggi, Zhang Liandi felt a pang in his heart. What is this? It's been swinging all morning. Push the prime minister into the fire pit!

"The 2nd Army has not called back to confirm the order until now?" Wu Xifen asked again with hope, although he had long been desperate for the army near Gyeonggi.

"There is no confirmation. Neither the Janissaries nor the 2nd Army were confirmed. Now General Lei Yizhen, who is out of trouble in Tonghua, is sending electricity to the 2nd Army, but it is estimated that it will not have any effect. "When Zhang Liandi said, 'General Lei Yizhen, who got out of trouble', his heart was sour again, and he was extremely sad." I think the effect of shouting before coming to the battle will be better. ”

Zhang Liandi is like this, but Wu Xifen is powerless to say: "I heard that at the beginning of the founding of the country, some warlocks said that the prime minister was not allowed to work in the imperial city, otherwise the prime minister would be punished." No one believed it before, but now that I think about it, there is some truth. ”

"This ......" I didn't expect the chief to say such a thing, Zhang Liandi really didn't know how to respond.

"Alright, let the assault battalion and transport planes be on standby, and once the prime minister's position is determined, they will parachute down again." Wu Xifen said in a low voice. The airborne assault battalion actually saved him in vain in the morning, which hit him very hard. "What about Qi Qingyuan? Didn't find him? ”

Anyway, Wen Yongyu, who came over, said that he and Uncle Li had already fled by plane. Transport planes have a long range, and in the case of a bent escape, the plane may be equipped with fuel tanks, and they can fly four thousand meters or more. As a staff officer, Zhang Liandi can only make the following guesses.

In fact, this is also to blame that the Chinese-made transport aircraft are too advanced, when other countries are still wooden transport aircraft, Taiyuan Aircraft Factory launched an all-metal aluminum transport aircraft; The life of aircraft engines in other countries is only 50 hours, and the life of domestic engines is more than 200 hours because the crankshaft has been forged by 10,000 tons; As for the range, load capacity, fuel consumption, safety, and even the parachute is superior to other countries, this is the reason why the aircraft is sold well by airlines of various countries. But the plane was built so well, but it was cheaper for Qi Qingyuan and others to flee, which is really a great irony.

"Leave his affairs to the Intelligence Bureau, we'll only keep an eye on the Prime Minister. The order went down, and everyone kept an eye on the prime minister's plane and reported it as soon as there was news. Wu Xifen didn't think much about Qi Qingyuan, she just wanted to save the prime minister.

"Understood, sir!" Zhang Lianqi responded, and he quickly went out to generate electricity.

A dry group of people scurried around like ants on the hot pot, for fear that the prime minister would land in Gyeonggi, but Yang Rui, who had been flying for two and a half hours, was not Qinhuangdao and Tangshan at this time, but Shandong.

Before takeoff, the bullets fired by the guards of the 1st Army changed the range of the plane - the engine exhaust hole failed after being shot, and the pilot did not dare to fly directly to Qinhuangdao from Yingkou, so that once the engine failed, the parachute would not be saved, because the sea was below. The pilot could only fly along the Liaodong Peninsula to Dalian Lushun, and if the plane could support Lushun, then it would fly over the Bohai Sea and land in Weihai Huangxian and other places opposite; If you can't, then fly to where it is, in short, the farther away from Tonghua the better.

The cockpit of the plane was vertically arranged, and Yang Rui sat in the third position with Yang Wuming in his arms. He didn't expect to be so unlucky that he would sit on a plane whose engine might stop at any moment. It's not that he didn't expect to fly back to North Korea, but the plane was originally flying to Yingkou, and when he found a fault, he could only fly to Dalian, and then fly back to North Korea, not to mention whether there was enough gasoline, and he would have to cross the sea in a straight line, maybe after the engine stopped, he and his son would sink into Dadonggou. So in the end, I had to agree to the pilot's plan: fly along the Liaodong Peninsula, land across the sea in Shandong if the engine can hold it, parachute if it can't hold it, and leave it to fate as to where it will fall.

The prime minister of a country and the leader of the majestic revolution can be forced to such a point by his good students, and he can be regarded as the only one. Now thinking back on what happened, the naïve and credulous Qiu Jin is one of the culprits, and he has to think of a sentence in later generations: Women are not allowed to enter politics; I remembered an old saying again: The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics.

In addition to Qiu Jin, Zhang Taiyan, this old thing, is not a good bird! Literati have the ambition to govern the country and level the world, but this is just a thing on paper in the study, which is completely useless in reality. I don't know why, Zhang Taiyan always reminds him of Wang Anshi, the same knowledge and popularity, the same stubbornness, and the same service for the country and the people, but what is the result......

There are also bastards like Qi Qingyuan and Liu Boyuan! Dare to imprison himself, if Fei Yugui confessed last time, these people also took the initiative to stand up and admit their mistakes, although they were furious, but after all, they were their own students! Could it be that he would really let the Tingwei Mansion shoot them? Fei Yugui died because he refused to accept the softness, and shouted that it was unfair, in fact, as long as he could confess, even if Dali Temple sentenced him to death, he could let him change his skin and change his identity before coming out. This neurotic, idiot!

The whole world can't stop at it! Except for themselves, all stupid! This is the first thought in Yang Rui's heart on the way to escape, fortunately, he is not Chongzhen who hanged himself on the coal mountain, or Kaiser Wilhelm who has been complaining after the defeat. After calming down, this incident made him come to two truths, one is that a rational teammate can not be relied on! Although Zhang Taiyan Qiujin made this mess, they didn't want to seize power, they just wanted to change the political system. This kind of person doesn't have much power, he won't harm him, he will only mistake him, of course, this time the mistake is bad enough.

Second, the fight against corruption must be stopped in moderation, otherwise someone will jump over the wall in a hurry! The army is still like this, once the bureaucratic system is strictly grasped, the officials will be even more reversed - Yang Rui is convinced that the Taizu of the Later Dynasty will never want to produce 100,000 catties per mu, but the bureaucrats below intentionally or unintentionally took the opportunity to push the boat down the river and fall into the well. When things were irreparable, those people immediately jumped to the side of justice: shouting, 'You and I are going to go to the history books!'" Such a situation is nothing more than forcing the palace to seize power, just like the diagram of the displaced people in the New Song Dynasty.

Although the current dynasty does not use the Stalin model, Yang Rui also believes that the bureaucrats below will make similar things. All parties are guilty, the blame lies with the prime minister, if they don't let them live, they will make countless black pots to make themselves back. In the final analysis, this country is still ruled by kings and bureaucrats, and the people are just fish and meat on the table. There is only one bottom line for kings: no rebellion; And the bottom line of the bureaucracy is only one: not to delay making a fortune......

In the aircraft engine of 'dada...', Yang Rui couldn't help but summarize the lessons of this incident. In addition to the above two items, he also felt that he must learn from Comrade Stalin in the future: never leave Moscow for non-major matters.

"Prime Minister, it's going to be Bohai soon!" Yang Rui wanted to learn from Stalin, and the pilot Zhou Baoheng suddenly reported. Along the way, he relied on his best efforts to control the engine speed and oil pressure, and run smoothly to reduce the pressure on the exhaust valve.

"Can you get over?!" Yang Rui leaned forward and asked. He never wanted to fall into the hands of Qi Qingyuan again.

"It should be!" Zhou Baoheng reciprocated, and after checking the oil pressure and pipeline pressure again, he corrected: "Report to the Prime Minister, you will definitely be able to!" ”

"Fly over!" Yang Rui ordered loudly, he never wanted to fall into Qi Qingyuan's hands again. (To be continued.) )
