The train driver in the courtyard

Chapter 581: An unexpected gain, the enemy wants to blow up the steelmaking blast furnace?

In order to prevent the news from leaking out, Lao Mao plans to send out seven capture teams at the same time.

A violent storm is about to hit this peaceful city.

Li Aiguo had completed the task of filming the movie and originally planned to go back to his room to rest for a night and return to the capital the next day.

However, as soon as he left the office, he was invited back by Lao Mao.

"Comrade driver, you will lead Team One."

"Team One?"

Lao Mao handed over a file.

“Among the seven people Chen Zhongpu just told me about, there is also a big shot from over there.

It's just that he himself didn't understand it.

I urgently checked the files and noticed this based on the information we had.”

It is a routine operation for the investigation team to use the connections between the two people, cross-information, and unravel the other party's identity.

Many Dieters were caught in this way.

Upon hearing this, Li Aiguo quickly opened the file.

The file belongs to a man named Zhang Guian.

Zhang Guian has an overseas background. Two years ago, he responded to the call and returned to Wu Han from overseas via Hong Kong to contribute to national construction.

Because of his experience as a technician in overseas heavy steel mills, he was recruited to Wu Han Steel Plant and currently works as a technician at the No. 1 blast furnace in the ironmaking plant.

Several months ago, Lao Mao had learned about the existence of Zhang Guian from overseas sources, but because the news was vague, his true identity could not be confirmed.

Zhang Guian is an "all-round intelligence officer", a product of the cooperation between the enemy and American agencies.

That is, the Americans trained a group of so-called elite agents for the enemy.

These agents are fluent in at least one or two languages.

After entering the designated lurking area, the requirement is that one person carry out the mission, collect intelligence independently, and send, copy, and translate reports all by one person.

And use the radio to maintain secret contact directly with the so-called "Second Hall" to send intelligence and receive instructions.

Zhang Guian had a single-line connection with the Second Hall, so there should have been no mistakes, but the radio he was carrying had a problem.

In these days, regulated radio equipment like radio stations.

If you want to repair it, you need a letter of introduction from your employer.

As a blast furnace technician, Zhang Guian is not qualified to own a radio station.

The enemy instructed Chen Zhongpu, who worked in a telecommunications repair shop, to use his position to help Zhang Guian repair the radio station.

They didn't expect that Chen Zhongpu had already intended to betray them. In order to get bargaining chips after the betrayal, he secretly followed Zhang Guian and found out Zhang Guian's identity.

However, Chen Zhongpu did not realize the importance of Zhang Guian and only thought that this guy was a "peripheral channel" personnel.

"The First Blast Furnace of Wuhan Iron and Steel is an important industrial project in China. Zhang Guian was assigned to Wuhan Iron and Steel. I'm afraid the enemy has already set their sights on the blast furnace."

The old cat's tone was calm at this time, but his body was covered with cold sweat.

Li Aiguo couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat.

If there is any project in China that can be compared with the Yangtze River Bridge, it must be Wuhan Iron and Steel's First Blast Furnace.

Steel is a basic industry, and domestic guns and cannons at that time were not made of steel.

Many projects in the “First Five-Year Plan” required steel, and it was stated that “steel must pass the test and steel must cross the river.”

At that time, there was still some steel in Anshan Iron and Steel, the old base in Northeast China, the Hanyang Iron Works in Central and South China, with an output of only 100,000 tons, and almost nothing in the South.

Wuhan Iron and Steel produced 150 to 200 million tons as soon as it went into production!

If there is a problem with the First Blast Furnace, many key projects will not be able to proceed.

The enemy's intentions are extremely vicious!
"Team leader, leave the task of arrest to me." Li Aiguo said with his chest puffed out.

The old cat patted his shoulder.

"We still don't know Zhang Guian's real purpose, nor do we know whether he has helpers, so we must capture him alive this time."

"Yes!"

Li Aiguo saluted Lao Mao and turned around to call the team members.

Wu Han is extremely charming under the night sky.

After a busy day, people finally got a rest.

Taking a walk with the family in the slightly cool night breeze, the air is filled with a leisurely atmosphere.

The Wuhan Iron and Steel construction site in Jiangjiadun in the eastern part of Qingshan District is a busy scene.

This is the suburbs. A year ago, it was a land of rolling hills, overgrown bushes, crisscrossing fields, and gullies, rivers and lakes.

After the Wuhan Iron and Steel project began, large-scale mountain excavation and road construction work was fully launched.

The Second Highway Division from Hainan leveled the ground and built roads in just a few months.

A steel base will rise in this desolate land.

The scene of "the fire illuminates the sky and the earth, and red stars are mixed with purple smoke" is about to appear.

Blast furnace technician Zhang Guian retracted his gaze and took the iron waist lunch box in his hand.

He turned around and went to the sink to wash himself, and then prepared to start his regular "overtime" work.

The planned construction time for the first blast furnace is three years.

Considering the current urgent need for steel in the country, the higher authorities encourage us to carry forward the spirit of not fearing hardship or fatigue and strive to start production as soon as possible.

The builders and technicians of the blast furnace worked overtime.

At this time, the technicians had just finished dinner and gathered in the office to chat.

"You know, the next batch of information will be translated soon. We may have to work overtime until twelve o'clock starting tomorrow."

"Really? That's great. If the blast furnace is completed sooner, we can produce more steel."

"One is food, the other is steel. With these two things, everything will be easy. We have to work hard!"

Zhang Guian came over and threw cigarettes at several technicians.

After chatting for a while, he asked intentionally or unintentionally:
"Engineer Chen, Engineer Liu, you are in charge of the blast furnace structural drawings. How many bomb equivalents can this blast furnace withstand?"

Several technicians were confused when they heard this.

"Gui'an, what do you mean? Do you want to blow up the blast furnace?"

"How is that possible! I'm just worried that there will be another war and enemy planes will drop bombs." Zhang Guian explained slowly without changing his expression.

Zhang Guian works diligently and actively on weekdays, attends ideological study classes every week, and is an ideological activist in the department.

Besides, he looked gentle and polite and didn't seem like a bad person, so they didn't ask any further questions.

The oldest engineer, Chen, took a puff of his cigarette and analyzed, "Gui'an's worry is not unreasonable. Didn't they shoot down a plane along the coast a while ago?

Our blast furnace has a capacity of 1386 cubic meters and is very large. It adopts a structure with four layers of flat water tanks above the furnace waist support ring.

Logically speaking, it can't withstand a few aerial bombs."

The counters laughed and said, "We are building a blast furnace, not a bunker. How can it withstand bombs?"

Guian, you people who have returned from abroad just like to ask such strange questions. "

Zhang Guian was teased, but he was not angry. He asked, "What if we install explosives inside?"

"Explosives? Then our blast furnace is really powerful. After all, it is made of steel. If it is not installed at the stress point of the structure, I am afraid that even a pack of explosives will not be able to destroy it!"

Speaking of the sturdiness of the blast furnace, Engineer Chen said with some pride: "You all know about the blast furnace case at Anshan Iron and Steel in 49."

The Chinese people may not know about the Anshan Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. blast furnace case, but people in the steel industry are well aware of it.

In 49, Han Wenchu, Ma Yunsheng and five others from Anshan Iron and Steel were misled by the enemy and attempted to destroy Anshan Iron and Steel's No. blast furnace.

But the blast furnace was too strong. They thought of blowing it up with explosives and grenades, but found that it would not work.

So the five of them often gathered together to discuss how to destroy the blast furnace, which eventually aroused the vigilance of the Anshan Iron and Steel Plant Protection Team.

After careful planning, the Anshan Iron and Steel Plant Protection Team arrested all five of them when they were having a meeting.

This case was later used as a typical example and publicized within major heavy factories across the country.

Master Meng, who captured Dieter, was received by his superiors.

After Zhang Guian returned to the mainland, he also heard about this matter. He quickly spread a circle of smoke and asked casually, "Yes, you old technicians built the blast furnace too strong. But how many structural points are there and where are they?"

According to Wuhan Iron and Steel's regulations on technical personnel, each technician can only be responsible for his own work and should not inquire into drawings outside of work.

Therefore, Zhang Guian’s problem has “exceeded the standard”.

However, the Technical Department has never strictly enforced this regulation. In order to speed up the work progress, Section Chief Zhou even encouraged technicians to "share what they have with each other."

So even though Zhang Guian asked about the location of the structural point, Engineer Chen and his colleagues didn't care.

"There are many structural points. I am responsible for the structural drawings of the waist and abdomen line, including the one above the abdomen line."

Mr. Chen said happily while smoking a cigarette.

At this time, the office door was pushed open from the outside and Section Chief Zhou walked in.

"What are you talking about?"

"Yes, Gui'an is interested in structural points. I am explaining them to him." Engineer Chen said.

Section Chief Zhou didn't care, but just reminded: "Mutual communication is conducive to improving technology, but don't let the people in the security department see it.

These people are suspicious all the time and will only cause trouble to our work."

The technicians in the technical department are all knowledgeable and educated. Many of them are college students and some have even received foreign education.

They have always looked down on those rough guys in the security department.

Especially because of the special status of Wuhan Iron and Steel, in order to prevent the enemy from sabotaging, the comrades in the Security Department were on high alert and everyone looked like Dieter to them.

The technicians agreed without hesitation.

Seeing that it was already half past seven, they didn't bother to chat anymore and went back to their desks to get busy.

Zhang Guian felt it was a bit of a pity. After such a long period of preparation, he was about to get the location of the structural points, but now it was interrupted.

But it doesn’t matter. We’ll find a good opportunity next time. These people who are a little bit vigilant will definitely give us everything.

Zhang Guian took out the documents from the cabinet, placed them on the table, and was about to start working.

Section Chief Zhou looked at Zhang Guian and waved at him: "Technician Zhang, come to my office."

Zhang Guian was startled. Could it be that he had become alert?

Only after entering the office and listening to what Section Chief Zhou said did Zhang Guian feel relieved.

"Zhang Jishu, you have been back to China for two years. Have you ever thought about finding a partner?"

"Section Chief, our blast furnace construction has reached a critical stage. As a technician, I have devoted all my energy to the construction of the blast furnace and have no time to consider personal issues."

"We all know that you have advanced ideas, but marriage is a major event in life and cannot be delayed. Only after you get married can you do a better job."

Section Chief Zhou waved his hand to interrupt him. "The Women's Federation is organizing a blind date event soon. Those female comrades are all workers in our factory. I have also put your names on the list."

"Thank you, Chief. If there is nothing else, I will go to work first."

Looking at Zhang Guian's back, Section Chief Zhou sighed. This boy is knowledgeable and educated, but he is too honest.

As the section chief, Zhou was busy until eleven o'clock in the evening, when he turned off the lights and prepared to return to the dormitory to rest.

At this time, the construction site, which had been busy all day, fell into silence.

As soon as he left the office, he saw Supervisor Zhang from the Security Department walking towards him with a few men in grey Zhongshan suits.

With the help of the dim street lights, Section Chief Zhou could see that Supervisor Zhang's face was covered with frost, and he could also feel the murderous aura of those men in gray Zhongshan suits.

He was startled and hurriedly walked towards him.

"Zhang, what happened?"

"Where is Zhang Guian from your technical department? Is he still working overtime?" Supervisor Zhang asked directly. "He should be off work. Look, the lights in the big office are off." Section Chief Zhou replied.

"Where does he live? In the dormitory in the living area?"

"The dormitory was full, so the factory arranged for him to live in the staff area in Tangjiatun."

After the construction of Wuhan Iron and Steel Corporation began, in order to accommodate the workers who came from afar, Wu Han vacated a large number of confiscated houses and used them as residences for the workers.

This matter is the responsibility of the heads of each department.

"Take us there now!" said Supervisor Zhang.

Section Chief Zhou was still confused at this time and wanted to ask what had happened, but he didn't dare to speak.

When Section Chief Zhou followed Supervisor Zhang and the men in gray Zhongshan suits to the truck and saw that the truck was full of guards, he realized the seriousness of the problem.

"Zhang, did Zhang Guian make a mistake? No way, he's a good kid.

I'm very busy at work now and can't waste even a day.

If you arrest Zhang Guian, will you take over his job?"

Seeing that Section Chief Zhou was not cooperating with the work, Supervisor Zhang was about to scold him with a stern face.

Li Aiguo stepped forward and smiled warmly: "Comrade, we are just suspicious, so we want to have a good talk with him. Don't worry, if there is no problem, we will definitely not embarrass him."

Section Chief Zhou breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said, "Then I'll take you there now."

When Li Aiguo arrived at Tangjiatun, it was almost 11:30 in the evening.

The compound was quiet, with an old building standing in a dark corner.

Several large trees with lush branches and leaves almost covered the entire building, looking eerie and scary under the moonlight.

Section Chief Zhou pointed to the second floor of the building.

"Leader, Zhang Guian lives in the room at the end of the second floor. How about I knock on the door and bring him out?"

"no need!"

Section Chief Zhou was a little worried about Zhang Guian and was still thinking about easing the situation. However, Li Aiguo had already drawn his pistol and rushed up the stairs with seven or eight men in gray Zhongshan suits.

Dozens of guards surrounded the small building, and even Section Chief Zhou and Supervisor Zhang were blocked outside.

"Look at this, this..." Section Chief Zhou was a little dissatisfied.

Supervisor Zhang said coldly, "Old Zhou, you are also an old comrade. Don't you know the identities of these people? How can you be so confused! You are going to get into trouble this time."

Only then did Section Chief Zhou realize that the problem was far more serious than he had imagined, and he lowered his head and remained silent.

It's quiet at night.

The bright moonlight shines through the gaps between the leaves and falls on the stairs. As the wind blows, the black spots sway from side to side.

Although the man in the gray Zhongshan suit had carried out two missions in one night, he was still full of energy.

They took big strides onto the turntable and continued to rush up to the second floor.

Li Aiguo raised his fist.

Everyone stopped at this moment.

The man in the gray Zhongshan suit raised his pistol and looked around vigilantly, but did not find anything suspicious.

"What's wrong?" someone asked in a low voice.

Li Aiguo pointed to the stairs in front.

This is an old building. The stairs and floors on the second floor are made of wood, and they make creaking sounds when you step on them.

If more than a dozen people rushed upstairs at the same time, the noise would probably be very loud.

Especially since they were all worn with gray Zhongshan suits and standard leather shoes, it was likely to alarm Zhang Guian.

“What should we do now?” The man in the gray Zhongshan suit realized this and broke out in a cold sweat.

Their goal this time is to capture Zhang Guian alive and not leave him any chance.

"Take off your shoes."

"."

The soles of human feet are covered with a thick layer of flesh pads, which are most suitable as shock-absorbing tools.

In ancient times, it was because people did not wear shoes that they could approach prey quietly and use sticks to feed their families.

Since we don’t have suitable shoes, let’s just play the role of primitive people.

Just like that, seven or eight men in grey Zhongshan suits took off their shoes and, like primitive men, tiptoed to the door of the room at the end of the second floor.

Li Aiguo pushed the door gently, but it was locked from behind.

He actually locked the door from the inside before sleeping. It’s obvious that this guy is not a good person.

He pulled out the wire from his waist, bent it twice lightly, inserted it into the crack of the door, and gently moved it.

With another gentle push, the door opened.

The door lock technology these days is really too simple.

Li Aiguo even has the idea of ​​inventing several A-grade door locks.

But forget it. If they all use Class A door locks, it will be difficult to catch people in the future.

The moonlight slowly poured into the house as the door opened.

Eight pairs of big feet stepped lightly on the wooden floor and walked in silently.

They approached the door of the inner room step by step.

boom!
Li Aiguo suddenly kicked out and directly kicked the door panel away.

The men in gray Zhongshan suits were just wondering why Li Aiguo was so impulsive when they heard a scream.

The flashlight beam swept over and saw Zhang Guian flying out along with the door panel.

They all gasped in surprise twice in succession.

They acted so carefully, how come they were still discovered by Zhang Guian?
The second is how Li Aiguo discovered that Zhang Guian was hiding behind the door.

But now is not the time to ask questions.

"Don't move!"

The man in the gray Zhongshan suit rushed in and yelled.

Li Aiguo's kick just now was very powerful, and Zhang Guian fell to the ground.

He was rubbing his head, obviously not reacting yet. He froze when he heard the roar.

The man in the gray Zhongshan suit immediately rushed forward and pinned Zhang Guian down, pried open his mouth, grabbed his tongue and prevented him from swallowing.

This technique has become very sophisticated.

Zhang Guian's eyes widened in horror, and his throat made a "ho ho ho" sound, but he couldn't even control his mouth.

Li Aiguo walked over quickly and put his finger in. It was sticky and warm inside. He suppressed his nausea and squinted his eyes.

This is it.

Li Aiguo lightly hooked out a capsule with his fingers.

Obviously, after discovering someone breaking in, Zhang Guian immediately swallowed the poison capsule into his mouth, and then hid behind the door with a pistol.

If Li Aiguo hadn't kicked the wooden door away, Zhang Guian would have committed suicide by taking poison.

Those in grey Zhongshan suits all broke out in cold sweat.

Li Aiguo also found it strange. Why were all the Diets he met these two days at high levels?

He threw the poison capsule into the envelope and wiped it on Zhang Guian's body.

"Let him go."

The men in gray Zhongshan suits let go of Zhang Guian's tongue.

What, why aren’t you afraid that he will bite his tongue and commit suicide?

Li Aiguo had already thought of the answer, but due to limited paper, he couldn't write it down.

If there are students who are knowledgeable about this, please type the answer on the public screen.

Zhang Guian was obviously a die-hard. Even after the poison capsules were taken away, he still wanted to commit suicide by banging his head against the wall.

The men in grey Zhongshan suits rushed over, knocked him to the ground, and tied him up tightly with hemp ropes.

Li Aiguo still thinks that hemp rope is more useful than handcuffs.

Easy to carry, great control!

After catching the man, the man in the gray Zhongshan suit conducted a comprehensive search of the house.

"Report, we found a radio, a map of Wu Han Steel Plant, and dozens of blast furnace blueprints. The maps and blueprints are all standard lead-printed blueprints."

It is normal to have a radio station. As the saying goes, a Dieter without a radio is not a good Dieter.

However, the drawings are a bit odd.

Lead-printed drawings are all numbered and cannot be taken out of the office at will. Some confidential drawings need to be signed by the department leader before they can be viewed.

Now, this guy actually took the drawings home.

Li Aiguo took the drawing and took a look at it.

There are several red circles and parabolas marked on the drawing.

It is obvious that Zhang Guian designed several plans to blow up the blast furnace, including the use of mortars and explosives.

He really regarded this place as his own training ground.
He grabbed Zhang Guian by the collar.

"You kid, are you really going to blow up the blast furnace?"

"Why not! As long as the blast furnace is blown up, my family over there can be released and they can live a good life." Zhang Guian acted very aggrieved.

He had no choice but to blow up the blast furnace.

Just like the romantic senior technicians in later generations, each of them has a miserable life experience, and their life experiences often change.

Li Aiguo waved his hand and interrupted him before he could finish.

"take away!"

Li Aiguo didn't care why these Dites helped the evil, he was only responsible for sending them to eat peanuts.

At this time, a man in a gray Zhongshan suit asked Li Aiguo in a low voice: "Driver Li, how did you know Zhang Guian was hiding behind the door?"

"I do not know."

"Then why did you kick the door?" The man in the gray Zhongshan suit was a little confused.

Li Aiguo said slowly: "We have to rush in anyway. Don't you think kicking the door is the fastest way?"

Gray Zhongshan suit: "."

When he thought about it carefully, it was indeed the case.

The bed in the room was only a few meters away from the door.

If we try to open the door lock from inside, we might alert the enemy.

Kicking the door came faster.

The most important thing is its majestic momentum.

Well, next time we’ll kick the door too.

Zhang Guian, who had already stood up, felt his knees go weak and he almost fell to the ground after hearing what Li Aiguo said.

He never expected that he was kicked away without even firing a shot because he was too vigilant and followed the instructions of the American instructor.
