Chapter 41 Forty, cold fog

Probably because of the cold fog, we initially thought that there would be a large space outside, but because the visibility was extremely low, we couldn’t see the end of the light, so we had such an illusion.Trembling with Wang Sichuan, I walked back for a while along the wire slab field ridge when I came, and we could no longer see the hatch of No. 2 iron cabin. When Wang Sichuan came out for the first time, his attention was drawn to the frozen black shadow in the concrete pool outside. He stopped from time to time, trying to use his flashlight to see what the shadow under the thick ice was, but the permeability of the ice here It's really not good, and with the cold fog, it's really impossible to see clearly what's under the ice on the ice.

I looked at it more carefully this time than when I came here. I also wondered what the Japanese used for this place. If it is so cold, it is obviously lower than the temperature of the groundwater. There must be a compressor for refrigeration. At that time, there was no concept of refrigerators, and the refrigeration compressors were all used in large-scale cold storage, but here, it looks like a cold storage for aquatic products. When we got to a certain place, Wang Sichuan proposed that we go up to the concrete pool on the upper side and the "vertical" field ridge in the middle of the concrete pool. These long concrete protrusions lead all the way to the depths of the fog. Although it is difficult to maintain balance when walking on it, More realistic than walking on ice.

I agreed, and walked up together, carefully walking into the depths of the fog bit by bit like walking a tightrope. Leaving the regular field ridge of the wire board made me somewhat guilty, because this thing is like a lifeline, and leaving this line makes people feel very insecure. It was a very long journey, probably because it was too cold, or we walked too carefully. We actually walked quite slowly, so we were not sure how long we actually walked. We just felt that it was a long journey. During the period, because it was too cold, and the surrounding area was full of fog, there was nothing to discuss, so I didn't talk to Wang Sichuan all the time, and I was a little dazed afterwards.

Finally, Wang Sichuan stopped first. He was actually walking behind me, so he stopped me.At this time, I realized that in the fog in front of me, there were rows of large shadows about half a person's height.We quickened our pace and approached, and soon discovered that the edge of this space had arrived, and those shadows were unknown machines placed against the wall, covered with frost.Many, many tubes emanate from these machines and are inserted into the ice in the concrete pool. On the top of these machines, there are many identification plates. Wang Sichuan knocked off the frost on a few pieces and found that they were all numbered. It is a much more complicated number, which seems to indicate which concrete pool these pipes are responsible for cooling.

I figured these were the compressors for refrigeration, and as we walked along the side, it was unbelievably cold, and soon our teeth started chattering. After walking a few steps, I saw a large door opening on the concrete, with a torque latch. There was a thick iron door half-closed, and the door was covered with hoarfrost. Wang Sichuan kicked it a few times, but the door remained motionless. The thickness is astonishing. I looked at this door and felt very familiar, but I didn’t remember where I saw it for a while. I didn’t wake up until Wang Sichuan broke off a few pieces of frost on the door to reveal the words on the door.

There is a big inscription on the door: 53, strategy It is almost exactly the same as the big iron gate we dug out from under the stone in the first section of the underground river. At that time, some people said that it was the place where the explosives were detonated. I thought to myself, is this also the place where the explosives were detonated?But also think it is not very likely. The door has just opened a gap that can accommodate one person to enter. The whole door has actually been frozen into a whole with the concrete on the side. The frost on the wheel axle is amazingly hard, and it is impossible to open it any more.

I took a deep breath and walked in with Wang Sichuan. The temperature inside was a little higher, so the fog was very thick, but it was much better after a few steps inside. It is very tall, the width and width of it are even with the door, about five meters, it seems to be a channel for transporting large things.As we walked further in, the smell of rust became stronger and stronger, and we felt unstable under our feet. I don’t know where the tunnel leads to. It’s pitch black in front of me, and even the flashlight can’t reach the end. Pointing to the wall, I turned my head to take a picture, and the iron sheet with countless rusty scales on the side was wiped by hand, leaving a long imprint, and the rust flakes fell all over the ground. Clear footprints were also seen on the ground, and there were two pairs.

These traces are quite new, and I suddenly became excited. It seems that I have found clues to Yuan Xile. Following these traces, we quickened our pace and ran to the depths of the passage. At the same time, our flashlights kept scanning the surroundings, lest we miss something. After running for about half a cigarette, we finally came out from the exit and came to a platform superior. The top and bottom of the platform suddenly opened up, and the top was quite high, with steel beams appearing.When I looked down, a surprising scene came out. I saw that there seemed to be a huge hoisting workshop below. Two huge rails were stuck on the floor of the workshop, like two huge scars, which were particularly conspicuous.

From the wire ladder on the edge of the platform, you can go down to the hoisting workshop below. After going down, you can feel the hugeness of this workshop even more. There are piles of things, and there are heavy hooks hanging above the head. The waste of more than 20 years is not very conspicuous here, at least there is no serious rust smell. We found out later that there are the same ventilation devices at the skirting line of the workshop wall, and apparently some of them are still in operation for twenty years, keeping the air dry and clean all year round. We searched inside with a flashlight. The buildings left by the Japanese in Northeast China are rarely so well preserved. Most of them were burned down before leaving. The situation here is a bit strange. Could it be that the Japanese Was it too hasty to leave?

Soon I saw a lot of pasted things on a section of the wall. At first glance, it looked like satellite posters during the Great Leap Forward. After a closer look, I found that they were all schedules in Japanese, and a series of words that I could not understand. Structural drawings, there are a few mildew spots on these drawings, the whole has turned yellow and soft, and the whole piece will fall off when touched. I didn't dare to use too many hands, so I kept using the flashlight to look forward, and occasionally a few war posters and black and white photos were sandwiched among these.

I told Wang Sichuan that this must be the place where Little Japan assembled the "Deep Mountain". When it was disassembled and transported down the deep mountain, it obviously needed to be disassembled to the smallest size. The reassembly work may have lasted for several months. Here, those parts need to be It is reconditioned, oiled, and then assembled into larger components, such as the engine landing gear and so on. Although I don't know if these structural drawings are deep in the mountains, the size and facilities here can basically confirm my inference. Wang Sichuan said, there must be a huge elevator to transport these things up, we have to look for it, maybe that is the way out. We walked and watched, and when we came to a place, something on the wall caught my attention. It was a wooden board hanging on the wall, covered with black and white photos, big and small, group photos, and single people The photos are all the little Japanese military uniforms on TV, all with shameful smiles, these may be things they took when they celebrated some festival here, I don’t know what this board means to them, it’s just that One that piqued my interest. In that photo, I saw a dozen or so Chinese laborers, skinny as sticks, and they were dragging something. The thing was dragged out of the water, and half of it was in the water. It was black like a mass of jellyfish. A Japanese Bing was watching from the side, because the photo was too blurry, I really couldn't see what these people were looking at. I just wanted to ask Wang Sichuan to come over and watch it together, but I found that he was also calling me. He had already walked a long way and was lifting a piece of tarpaulin, with a very inappropriate expression. I walked over in a hurry, and he just tore the tarpaulin away, and I saw a pale human hand under the tarpaulin. After the tarpaulin was torn apart, I saw a horrible scene. Inside the tarpaulin were segmented steel bars and cement ingots. A corpse wearing an engineer uniform was sandwiched between two pairs of steel bars. When we moved him out, we found The corpse was completely ossified, probably because of the temperature here, the whole body was as hard as a stone.Must have been dead for a while. Turning it over, it was an unfamiliar face with a terrified expression, and the eyes were almost bulging out of their sockets. This was another young face.I don't know if he is a member of the four teams that came in at the same time as us, but judging from the situation of the corpses, the most likely one is Yuan Xile's team. Counting the corpses we found, we have already found three people , two dead, one crazy, so where are the others? Anyway, another one was sacrificed. I was very uncomfortable at the time, mainly because this soldier was too young. I always think it is very unfair to let these children who have not really started to enjoy life take risks. Wang Sichuan is not sentimental. They Mongolians are quite open to the passing of life. On the surface, he always says he is a materialist. In fact, I think he is still a pure-bred Mongolian in his heart. He always thinks that death is suffering. The call of the Changshengtian returned to the grassland of the wolf and the white deer. This kind of detachment is not bad, but when I discussed with him later, I always told him that the more detached a person is from death, the more ruthless he is to the enemy. Your Genghis Khan is merciless to the enemy, maybe in In his heart, he just thought that he sent these weak people back to the sky, but Wang Sichuan immediately refuted me, saying that Qin Shihuang is not detached from death, and people who are so afraid of death can still kill people like hemp, your argument is not tenable at all. In this way, it is better to be detached. A large amount of blood was condensed on the corpse, covering almost half of his body. Wang Sichuan felt a little abnormal. We untied the stiff clothes of the corpse, only to find that there were two blood holes on his back that were as thick as thumbs. Turned over, as a soldier, this kind of wound is too familiar, it is a gunshot wound. He was shot to death. Wang Sichuan's black face is also white, this is too abnormal, if it is any accidental death, we can think it is normal, after all, cave exploration, and such a complicated environment here, accidental death is inevitable, especially For these inexperienced recruits, this exploration is different from fighting. Experienced and inexperienced are sometimes the difference between life and death. However, if he was murdered with a gun, the nature is completely different. Where there is a bullet hole, there is a shooter, and there is a reason to shoot, but here?Who would shoot their comrades? Japanese?It is really unlikely, but it cannot be completely ruled out, because at that time, it was only 20 years before they evacuated. If the student soldiers recruited by the new Kwantung Army were only in their teens, they are only in their thirties now. This is not a place where people can live, and there is no trace of life along the way. Are there really enemy agents? At that time, we naturally thought of this thing at the same time.And panicked. Wang Sichuan thought about it, and suddenly moved the body back into the steel bars. I asked him what he was doing, and he said that since the enemy agents killed someone here, he must have exposed his identity. He wrapped the body in a tarpaulin, I don’t want others to know his existence. If we let him know that we found the body, then he knows he can’t hide it and will definitely attack us. He has a gun and we are definitely dead, so we have to cover the body again. In this way, He thought that we didn't know his identity, so he would appear. After all, if he mixed with us, the chance of survival was much higher, and we could subdue him when he wasn't paying attention. As soon as I heard this made sense, I helped him hide the body again. After working for a long time, we put the body back in place and covered it. Wang Sichuan said that we should be more careful now. I nodded, feeling very panicked. This kind of panic is much different than facing natural obstacles. Both of us sighed. , turned around and prepared to continue walking inside. After I turned around, I suddenly felt that something was wrong. When I shone the flashlight, there was an "ah" sound, and I sat down on the ground in shock. It turned out that behind us, at some point, there was a person lying on his stomach. This person stared at us with a face as pale as death. I've already been frightened by Yuan Xile once before, but this time I'm still not immune, mainly because this person posted us too close, almost standing behind us, and I don't know when he posted it. There was no sound.In particular, his movement on the ground was completely like a strange animal, and the effect of this was absolutely horrifying. Both Wang Sichuan and I were shocked, and I collapsed on the ground in fright, my lumbar spine hit the steel bar, and I almost lost my breath due to the pain.Wang Sichuan's reaction was half a beat slower than mine, and he took a step back in shock. After regaining consciousness, he hurriedly used the flashlight to take another photo, only to see that the person dodged the spot of the flashlight in a blink of an eye, then got up suddenly, and ran towards the dark place of the workshop. an animal. "Catch!" I came to my senses instantly and yelled at Wang Sichuan, because I couldn't stand up at this time, but Wang Sichuan was standing. Wang Sichuan's approach was different from mine, he responded and told me to follow suit!I was busy chasing the man with a flashlight, and then he weighed his own flashlight, yelled, and threw it at the man. I watched the flashlight draw an astonishing arc, and hit hard on the knee of the man who was about to disappear into the darkness. The man groaned, rolled to the ground, and He wanted to get up, but it was obvious that he was hit extremely hard. He stood up and fell down again. This is the first time I saw Wang Sichuan displaying his skill of throwing "Blu". As a person who has been in China and Mongolia, I have heard some descriptions about the magic of Mongolians throwing Bru, but what I didn't expect is When it is really used for "hunting", this skill is so beautiful when it is displayed. Wang Sichuan later told me that his throwing method was "jirugenbulu". If he wanted to use strength, I couldn't see the trajectory of the flashlight at all, and I could only hear the sound of breaking through the air, but this and that A person's knee would be completely shattered.The really good-looking one is another kind of blue that is used to shoot birds. There is a master in his Anda, which is much better than him. When we chased after him, the man had already got up and limped into the storage area covered by the tarpaulin. There was a large stretch of tarpaulins stacked together, and he disappeared immediately. trace. Wang Sichuan and I also chased it in. The ground was full of rope nets that fixed tarpaulins, and it was easy to trip people. under. Those tarpaulins are cans and some corrugated sheet-like devices, similar to filter screens, and there are many fuel tanks.These military materials are piled up, all materials are placed on the shallow deck, and then covered with tarpaulins, the four corners are tightly wrapped with hemp rope or wire.One can tell at a glance that it is a packing method for airborne, and the German-style material chassis is very obvious. At that time, China's 15th military airborne technology was all Soviet-style. Many civilians, such as when we received airdrops on the Gobi in Inner Mongolia, some of them were German-made chassis seized from the Japanese, so I know them, but this kind of chassis The number is very small. How should I put it, it is better than the Soviet Union in all aspects. It must have been saved by Mr. Mao at that time. I quickly chased to the very inside and walked into the depths of the material storage area. I saw piles of tarpaulins that looked exactly the same. It was difficult to walk in the nearby places, and the shadows in the far places were like a maze. I said to myself Oops, it's hard to find now, but at this moment, Wang Sichuan made some vocal gestures to me. I looked towards the place where his flashlight was shining, and saw a piece of tarpaulin on our left, which protruded unnaturally, and was still trembling. We walked over on tiptoe, and after Wang Sichuan took a deep breath, he suddenly tore off the tarpaulin with force, and then I threw my eyes on it. Unexpectedly, as soon as the tarpaulin was pulled up, a large layer of dust would blow up from under the tarpaulin.Then a white shadow came out from under the tarpaulin and knocked me to the ground. In the chaos, I was so choked that I couldn't even open my eyes. I coughed violently and couldn't see anything. I only heard Wang Sichuan He cursed loudly, and seemed to be chasing him. Cursing in my heart, I waved my hands to shake off the ashes in front of me. I squinted my eyes to see where they were running, but found that the two of them were gone. I yelled: "Wang Sichuan!" direction to find. At this time, by a strange coincidence, I suddenly rolled my eyes, I paused, and stopped abruptly. I saw something that I was very interested in exposed under the tarpaulin that Wang Sichuan tore off. I wasn't sure at the beginning, but when I pushed the dust away and walked in to remove all the tarpaulins, I became excited. I saw a military sand table under the tarpaulin, and a sand table that had been destroyed. The miniature model of the crushed wooden dam is inlaid on the sand table. At the same time, a miniature deep mountain is erected on the "water surface" inside the dam, surrounded by cranes, racks, and a large number of small devices. The so-called sand table, I don’t know if you understand this kind of thing, but I copied a paragraph of explanation: it is a model made of sand, war chess and other materials according to a certain proportion according to topographic maps, aerial photos or on-site terrain. The sand table covered by the tarpaulin may be used to simulate the hoisting process during the final assembly of the aircraft on the underground river. Naturally, it is impossible to complete the final assembly in an underground cavity for such a huge bomber as conveniently as in the factory building. . That sand table can be said to be a perfect combination of fineness and roughness. As far as a single model in it is concerned, it is unbelievably rough. All of them are carved with wood and boards at random, and it probably has a shape. However, it is so rough The model, the content it covers is really amazing. After so many years, it is impossible for me to recall all of them. The only thing I remember most is the damaged dam and the deep mountain on one side. From the topography of the entire sand table, we can see the general landform of the underground river. Due to the huge impact of water, the width of the underground river here is astonishing, and the original geological fissure-like knife-cut landform has been impacted into a relatively gentle underground river. On the river bed, the Japanese put a large number of reinforced concrete structures in the water, and built a huge platform under the water. There is a water channel with a filter under the platform, which can pass through the water of the underground river. There are a lot of equipment on the platform. What surprised me is the three overhead rails, which are long and inclined towards the void, like a door with three tubes. The anti-aircraft guns are aimed at the target in the void. The triangular structure is used under the rails. The whole structure is like a high-voltage electricity tower that has been brought down. The "Deep Mountain" stops behind the rails. The final height of the "mouth" is exactly about half of the height of the dam. The high and low podiums on the side, functional bunkers, cranes, small tracks, and the underwater interception of the dark net when we came over are all clearly indicated. I can even clearly see what Wang Sichuan said he was stopped. Sand pool entrance. Seeing such a facility, I'm covered in cold sweat. Although I've always thought so, but now I'm finally sure that Little Japan's motherfucking really wants to drive that "Deep Mountain" to that black Go into the huge underground cavity! Japan had quite a bit of experience in taking off aircraft carriers during World War II. Although I didn't fully understand it at the time, judging from the complex take-off facilities built on the sand table, it is clear that "Deep Mountain" took off from here. The Japanese think it is completely possible. of. I thought of the wreckage of the Shenshan submerged in the water, and my heart was full of doubts. I thought that since the Japanese had done so many things here, did the Shenshan take off?Moreover, why are there so many buffer packs piled up underwater now?I didn't see those three rails either. Thinking about it, suddenly lightning flashed across my brain, and I felt a huge coolness spread from my neck to my heels. I remembered the appearance of the wreckage of the plane, especially its nose. I clearly recalled that the nose of the "Deep Mountain" was facing away from the dam! sky! In other words, the wreckage of the "Deep Mountain" sunk in the water was not abandoned here without taking off, but it not only took off, but also flew back from the abyss!
