Chapter 45 Forty-four, old cat

I froze for a long time, and it took me a long time to react.The same is true for others, Wang Sichuan asked again: "You said you came in?" The old cat took out a cigarette and lit it, then nodded. We were all in a mess, and several people turned pale and looked at each other. My mind was still in chaos, but when I thought about it, I suddenly wanted to laugh, and found that this matter was actually quite reasonable, and there were already signs. First of all, before we came down, the old cat knew that the colonel's group had discovered the hole a long time ago.At first I thought it was because he was familiar with some of the ways of the organization, but now it seems that he has been in it a long time ago, of course he knows about it.

Secondly, when the dark river was flooded, he could appear in time, and he knew that the way to continue was at the top of the dark river.At first I thought it was because of his rich experience, but now I thought it was because he had been there before. I really don't know if we are too naive or something, but we didn't think of this. After a moment of silence, Pei Qing was the first to react, and asked coldly: "Okay, Mao Wuyue, I knew you had a problem, but I didn't expect you to be so deeply involved, what is going on here, you If you don't make it clear, don't blame us for not talking about class friendship."

The old cat calmed down, shook his head and said to us: "I said it just now, I can only talk up to this point, because they have their own considerations. Besides, I didn't say it for your own good." "Grandma, what the hell are you pretending to be a cadre!" Wang Sichuan, a man of temperament, suddenly turned over, jumped up, and wanted to rush up to beat the old cat.As soon as he got up to it, Old Tang on one side rushed up and twisted Wang Sichuan into a twist.Old Tang was a son of a Lian family, and his shots were very sharp. Wang Sichuan was so big that he was restrained by him.However, Wang Sichuan was not easy to provoke. He turned over and immediately threw Old Tang to the ground with a wrestling movement, and the two wrestled together.

I didn't intend to make matters worse, but when I saw Pei Qing rushing over, I was startled, thinking that there was going to be a big fight, but he was there to persuade the two of them to separate, and Old Tang pointed at Wang Sichuan and scolded Said: "Are you a soldier? What kind of intellectual uncle? The old cat doesn't say that he has discipline. Who the hell are you? Are we listening to you or to the regiment headquarters?" These words seemed not harsh, but in fact Old Tang had already mentioned two points in it: first, it was not that he did not say anything, but that he could not say it;This is a cue for us not to ask.

The regiment headquarters of the Corps of Engineers moved out. I know that the old cat will not say anything if he is beaten to death. Wang Sichuan is the kind of person who dares to beat up the political commissar. I am afraid that he will say nonsense. It’s broken, so I hurriedly stopped him and asked him to stop talking, and said a few words on both sides. Ma Zaihai saw that the atmosphere was not right, and when the wind turned the rudder, he changed the topic and said: "Leaders, don’t worry about this, that’s not right. , if Mao Gong is a survivor, then there should be only one person in this cave, could it be the one who wanted to kill Wu Gong just now?"

Others don't know about this matter. When it was said that someone was going to kill me, the old cat was very surprised and asked me why kill me?I told them about the almost buried death in the ice pit just now. After the old cat heard this, he frowned, and Old Tang asked if he wanted to send someone to search for it?The old cat immediately waved his hand and said, "Don't send, this is wrong!" I asked what was wrong? The old cat said that according to the information he had received before, the secret exploration team before us had a total of nine people, and three of them were women.According to the found bodies, we have found seven people, and Lao Mao himself is one of the expedition team, so there is still one person who has not been found, and this person, after gender screening, can be known to be a woman.

From what I have just described the man in Japanese military uniform who attacked me was clearly a strong man. Wang Sichuan asked me, when I was attacked, could I see clearly whether the other party was a man or a woman? I recalled it for a while, and firmly said that it must be a man. He grew up so big. When I was young, everyone in the village beat me a lot. I could always tell whether it was a woman or a man. Then this matter is really wrong. If the person who hit me was a man, but the survey team did not find a woman, it means that the person who beat me was not a member of the survey team. Then, who is this man?How could there be an extra man.

Are there really Japanese in this base? Everyone was talking about it, but after much deliberation, they couldn't think of other possibilities.Later, Pei Qing clicked his tongue and said to us in a dark voice: "Could it be Chen Luohu? He's the only one missing here." Wang Sichuan shook his head, saying that it was impossible, how could Chen Luohu have the guts to hit someone. Pei Qing said: "A person should not be judged by his appearance. The less impressive a person is, the more likely he is to pretend. I think he is a bit too timid." I feel totally messed up right now.Old Tang waved his hands and silenced their voices again, saying that both me and the deputy squad leader were injured, they were tired all the way here and needed to be recuperated, don't think about these things for now, let us rest, he will arrange his people Search here a little bit, and when the energy recovers, we will discuss what to do next.

I am indeed quite tired. After Old Tang said this, we all fell silent.What Old Tang said was right, we didn't gain much if we thought about it at the time, so we separated, and the atmosphere immediately relaxed. They had already boiled water and boiled the compressed vegetable paste. Several engineering soldiers served me a bowl. Old Tang saw that I was cold, so he added the chili sauce he brought to me. I was sweating all over. But I was still sleepy, and after eating, my eyelids drooped and I almost fell asleep. Someone told me before that people who fought on horseback could sleep on horseback. I traveled in various exploration teams, not to mention horses. I have ridden all four-legged domestic animals except dogs, but I have never been able to fall asleep. So I have never believed this kind of statement, but now I believe it, I am very sleepy, I just feel that nothing is important, let it go, even if someone wants to kill me, kill me, now I just want sleep.

However, I still couldn't fall asleep, because I saw the old cats unfolding a lot of drawings by the fire, and they wanted to start looking at something. I knew that must be the structure diagram here, so I suppressed my drowsiness, got up and went over, and asked the old cat to take a look.Old Tang asked me to rest, but I said no, I wanted to see what was going on in this underground base, so Lao Mao handed me one. The structure diagram is a bit old, and it is soft in my hand. I lay it on the ground to look at it. At this time, Wang Sichuan also came over. He is also interested in this, and he is in good spirits. His mother's nomad Physical strength is better than that of us eating rice.I tried my best to concentrate, and saw that the old cat gave me the floor plan of the entire underground river system. I found the dam where we were and the sign of the "No. 0-Dark River" underground river at a glance.

The level of detail of the Japanese map is amazing. On this plan, the tributaries of the underground river are very clear. The ground hole we entered into the underground river is also clearly marked on it: at the same time, we can also see other surface holes. There are four in total, but all are on other tributaries. The entire Underworld system is quite large, and the knowledge in textbooks is of little use here. At this time, we must use our subjective judgment ability.We gradually gathered together again, surrounded one by one, and studied these pictures together. There are seven tributaries of the underground river, of which No. 3, No. 4, No. 5, and No. 6 are all developed from No. 2 River. After entering from the surface cave, No. 2 River is the No. 2 River. As you can see from the picture, The four small tributaries on the No. 2 River all infiltrated into rock crevices in the end, their development stopped, they were not fully formed into mature underground rivers, and there was no storage lake at the end.Except for the Japanese communication center at the end of No. 6 River, there are no Japanese facilities at the ends of the other three tributaries. This is an independent system, like a big tree with four branches, No. 2-chuan is the trunk, and No. 3, 4, 5, and 6 are the four branches. The other two underground rivers are another independent system. The No. 1-chuan and No. 7 rivers converge in the upper reaches and become the No. 0-chuan where the dam is located. Surprisingly, these underground rivers are not completely independent. Between the various tributaries, you can see a large number of cave systems that are still developing, and the Japanese have clearly marked them.Through these complex maze-like cave systems, the Japanese can easily shuttle back and forth between these tributaries. In addition, there are several temporary power generating units marked on it similar to small sinkhole power stations. We cannot identify the marking symbols in several places, and we don't know what kind of facilities they are. Looking at it, I thought of a question. I asked the old cat, what is their plan now, instead of retreating, they came here relying on these structural diagrams. What is it for?Could it be to save the last woman? The old cat shook his head, pointed to a place on the structure diagram, and said: This is it. I looked at his finger, and he was pointing right next to the sign for the dam.At first I thought he was referring to the Deep Mountain bomber, until I saw that he was referring to the other side of the dam, the vast underground void of nothingness. I can't understand it, the shock of seeing that boundless darkness with my own eyes makes my scalp tingle, but on this structural diagram, it's just a blank space, why is the old cat interested in this blank space? I raised my question, the old cat smoked and said nothing, and the old Tang next to him answered. He pointed to a dotted line with long intervals on the structure diagram, made a soft gesture, and said in a low voice: : "You're not an engineer, so it's not surprising that you can't understand. You read this line first, and I'll explain it to you." I nodded, and he continued: "The logos of the Japanese are different from ours, but we can guess what kind of wires they are through the frequency of the types of wires appearing on the drawings. You see, the solid lines represent power transmission cables. This kind of line is the most on the drawings, almost everywhere, like vines, these lines are all from the power station, so it is easy to identify, and then you look at this dotted line, there is a phone pattern at the end of these lines , the number is also very large, indicating that this is a telephone line. And this dotted line with long intervals is very dazzling to me, because there is only one section of such a line on the entire map. I can't understand this, I just think of this section What line is it?" Then he moved his hand along this dotted line, and finally pointed to a place: "Later, I looked at both ends of this dotted line, and I understood the whole story. Where do you think this is?" I looked along his finger, and saw that the end of this dotted line turned out to be the sending room at the end of No. 6-Sichuan.I showed a look of surprise.Wang Sichuan on the side also let out an ah: "The telegraph room, what about this line?" "Yes, this line represents the transmitting and receiving antenna of the transmitter in the transmitting room. We always thought that this antenna was connected to the ground and used to communicate with other fortresses. However, after I checked the drawings carefully, I found that No, the other end of this antenna is not on the ground, but here!" He pointed to the outer edge of the dam, where the other end of the antenna stopped and turned into a "*" sign, a You can tell it's a large antenna. I broke out in a cold sweat suddenly, and my scalp was numb all over! Damn it!I understood what Old Tang meant in an instant: The antenna of the transmitter is on the dam, facing the void. They received the encrypted code of the Japanese 1942 standard from the transmitter. It is impossible for the signal to come from the surface. So, where did the signal they received come from? I looked at the antenna logo with the word "*" and knew that there was only one answer. The signal came from somewhere in that endless abyss. Twenty years ago, the Japanese had gone down and sent back the message.
