Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 2271 Three Doubts
Northwest, third airport, hangar.

The song of "The East is Red" echoed throughout the hangar, and many people sang along.

Mr. Zhang lowered his head and wiped his tears, expressing his joy for the victory of the revolution.

Yang Xiaotao came up to Mr. Zhang. He had often heard from Mr. Huang and others that this was a tough guy on the battlefield who shed blood and sweat but never shed tears.

But now, looking at the other person's expression, Yang Xiaotao realized that the phrase "crying with joy" can be applied to everyone!
“This is me, the best sound ever!”

When Mr. Zhang saw Yang Xiaotao, he calmed down and said.

“Let the whole world hear our “The East is Red” and tell people all over the world that this is our voice.”

"Anyone who is hostile to us should carefully consider the power of this voice!"

Mr. Zhang's words were very decisive, but Yang Xiaotao felt his blood boiling after hearing them.

The community of nations needs its own voice.

Only by making this voice of the strong can you fight for your own sky and the sunshine and rain for growth!

A-choo, A-choo~~~
Suddenly, two voices rang out.

Everyone turned their heads to look and saw that it was Yang Xiaotao and Ran's father, both of them were covering their noses.

"Oh, who came up with this idea? And we thought of it together."

"It can't be the daughter-in-law of the family."

Old Wang was joking beside him. Ran's father was shy and didn't say anything, but Yang Xiaotao didn't care at all. "Commander, I think someone must be talking about me in their heart."

"Besides, this person is guilty of his crime and will definitely cry thief, and I feel like he is right around here."

As soon as Yang Xiaotao said this, everyone laughed and looked at Mr. Wang.

Old Wang spread his hands and said, "It's definitely not me, because I say what I want to say directly and never speak ill of others behind their backs."

These words were spoken in a majestic and awe-inspiring manner.

Unfortunately, Qin Lao's voice came faintly, "I forgot who said that Lao Zhang's engine was not working."

Mr. Wang’s face froze.

Mr. Zhang also calmed down at this time, "I forgot who said it was not good enough, titanium alloy is exclusive."

Mr. Wang wanted to turn around and leave.

Yang Xiaotao smiled and said, "And that"

cough cough cough

"Why are you butting in when the adults are talking? Old Ran, keep your son-in-law in check."

Father Ran opened his mouth wide. Why were they talking about him so casually?
Everyone booed when they saw it.

Then there was a burst of laughter.

With this gag, the entire hangar was filled with laughter.

Seeing Yang Xiaotao arguing with his boss, Ran's father was speechless.

Although I am Yang Xiaotao's father-in-law, my position at work is not as high as Yang Xiaotao's!
What's more, you have to give some face to your son-in-law!

So Father Ran shook his head, then walked to the plane being processed and looked at it carefully.

They were originally celebrating their success at the satellite launch base, but when a phone call came in, Mr. Qian immediately brought people over.

Only when I got here did I realize how precious the plane in front of me was.

This is a treasure!

If we can dig out a little bit of it, the country can develop a lot!
Father Ran came up to him and touched the fuselage with his hand. Yang Xiaotao also came up to him and said, "It would be great if we could dismantle it!"

If it is dismantled, we can also study it carefully.

This machine can be disassembled to make maps, so this plane should also be able to be disassembled to make maps.

When the time comes, make a bunch of black birds and go to scout over the enemy's head!
The only uncertainty is whether there are materials available in the country to manufacture this aircraft.

"Wait a minute, don't just come up and tear it down, at least let me take a picture!"

Old Wang came closer and when he heard that Yang Xiaotao wanted to dismantle the plane, he immediately refused.

A whole plane or pieces of plane, that's two different levels.

Especially, there are traces of their missiles on the plane. This is their political achievement!

Everyone laughed when they heard this, but no one thought Yang Xiaotao was joking because he had the ability to do so.

Everyone began to look at the black bird in front of them, excitement on their faces.

President Peng came over from a distance. Everyone came forward, talking and laughing. President Peng greeted them and even climbed onto the plane. "This plane looks like it has a lot of stuff in it!"

"Peng, please go in and sit down, and take a picture!"

Yang Xiaotao was shouting from below, and everyone followed suit.

As soon as Mr. Peng heard it, he knew that Yang Xiaotao was going to make trouble, but he didn't care. He stepped in and acted like a pilot properly.

Without Yang Xiaotao saying anything, the staff officer next to him immediately raised his camera.

"Come on, everyone, take one."

Mr. Peng laughed loudly, stood up and asked everyone to take pictures.

Yang Xiaotao quickly walked over and stood with Huo Sheng and four other pilots.

"Boss Yang, you have to step forward."

"No, no, there are only old men in front, let's stay together as young people."

As Yang Xiaotao spoke, several people smiled, and the moment was captured on film.

night.

Airport cafeteria.

A group of people sat together around a table, all of them with their postures on, looking at the people around them.

Yang Xiaotao was pulled to the side of President Peng. In addition to Mr. Zhang, Mr. Zhang, Mr. Qin and Mr. Wang, there were also the person in charge of the airport and the heroes of this trip, four pilots.

"Come on, pour the wine, let's have a drink."

President Peng picked up his glass, and everyone quickly filled it up, then stood up and clinked their glasses together.

"Cheers! For a red East, and for an even redder East!"

Mr. Peng was full of vigor and his voice was full of heroism.

Yang Xiaotao also shouted loudly, "For victory!"

"Yes, for victory, drink it all in one gulp!"

Old Wang shouted. Old Zhang nodded silently. Old Zhang patted Yang Xiaotao on the shoulder and raised his glass. Everything was said without words.

Tonight, a group of people got drunk for fun.

……

Just when a group of people were getting drunk together, on the other side of the ocean, the sun was shining brightly, but a group of people in the conference venue were trembling with fear and treading on thin ice!

bang bang
The cherry wood pipe knocked against the table, and the continuous sound showed the owner's impatience.

The people around who were originally working quietly immediately felt a chill in their hearts.

Even though the people here are the ones who hold power, even though their status is already very high.

But all this seems insignificant in front of this white-haired old man.

Because the person in front of him is not only directly responsible to the president, but more importantly, he has money.

Here, without money, nothing can be done!

Just like them, they are the kind that have financial backers and serve others.

But the elderly are rich themselves, and even the financial backers behind them have to look up to them.

"The investigation team has something to say!"

The old man held the cherry wood pipe in his mouth, and the fine tobacco inside fell on the exquisite nanmu table, leaving a cluster of fire.

As soon as the words fell, a dark-skinned, bald middle-aged man in the front stood up and said, "Sir, I'm Lehman, the leader of the investigation team for this accident!"

"Well, Team Leader Lehman, please tell me, it's been twelve hours since the incident, what have you gained?"

The white-haired old man spoke in a calm tone, but everyone present knew that if they used random things to deal with him at this time, the consequences would be serious.

Lehman was obviously aware of the white-haired old man's temper, so he didn't try to be timid and spoke directly.

"Mr. Special Envoy, after our intensive investigation, information collection, and data compilation, we have three doubts."

"If we can resolve these three doubts, perhaps we will have a clear understanding of the whole incident."

Lehman opened his mouth and successfully attracted everyone's attention. The white-haired old man even picked up the tobacco bag beside him and put his pipe in it.

"First, our suspicion comes from the other party's research progress on artificial satellites."

"According to the information intercepted by our personnel, the other party's research on artificial satellites should be postponed for at least two years."

"But the other party suddenly accelerated the process and successfully launched it. How they accelerated the process is a question."

There was not much reaction from the crowd. Talking about this at this time is like being a wise man after the event, and it is no longer meaningful.

But Lehman had to say it, otherwise he could not support the reason for sending the Blackbird later.

"The second point. Based on our understanding of the other party's satellite development, we have sent Blackbird reconnaissance aircraft to conduct reconnaissance many times."

"In fact, there were no abnormalities in the first three times. Such abnormalities included traces of artificial satellites and the safety of the Blackbird reconnaissance aircraft. There were no problems!"

"But this time, a problem occurred. The question is why the problem occurred this time."

After Lehman finished speaking, the white-haired old man at the top lit his pipe with a match and asked, "Why did it go wrong?"

Lehman shook his head. "We don't know. Because some people in the base left their posts without permission, we lost the last chance to find out the situation."

"So we can only find information from limited recordings!"

"So, Captain Lehman, what information did you find?"

Lehman swallowed his saliva and then said, "Sir, we didn't find much information, but when we put it together, it's incredible!"

"Please tell me your incredibleness!"

"Ok sir."

Lehman was silent for a moment, then said, "When we were sorting out the information, we found that when the Blackbird last started working, the reported speed was Mach 2.6 and the altitude was 20,000 meters."

"Then there was a sound of the Blackbird being attacked, and there was a mention of missiles and airplanes."

"That is to say, during the attack, they were likely to be attacked by missiles from airplanes!"

As soon as Lehman finished speaking, other voices immediately appeared around him.

"Captain Lehman, are you sure it was at an altitude of 20,000 meters and Mach 2.6?"

A middle-aged man in an air force uniform asked, "At that speed and distance, our combat effectiveness is struggling, let alone China!"

"Yeah, I think that's impossible!"

"They can't possibly have such good planes, and missiles are possible!"

As everyone was talking, Lehman looked at the old man and said, "We investigated the pilots assigned for this mission. Mr. Wall is an excellent ace pilot. He has flown the Blackbird a total of 96 times, with a total flight time of more than 1,000 hours!"

"Such an experienced and excellent pilot is one of the best in the industry!"

"We think Mr. Wall will make the right choice at that time!"

"And the fact that he didn't fly back means that the other party has strength comparable to his and has a fighter plane comparable to the Blackbird!"

Lyman said this, and then laughed at himself, "If it wasn't for this, we would never understand why the Blackbird would be shot down!"

After he said this, the doubts that had originally existed in the surroundings immediately dissipated.

The white-haired old man in front was also silent.

Because he thought the same thing as everyone else, no one was willing to admit that the other party had the ability to shoot down the Blackbird.

Because that would mean that no reconnaissance plane in the entire United States would be safe.

That would mean that the reconnaissance methods and scientific and technological achievements that they once took pride in would become a thing of the past.

More importantly, the Blackbird, which they had invested huge amounts of money in developing, would become scrap metal at the airport.

But the current facts speak for themselves, showing that the other party is capable of doing all this.

The white-haired old man looked at Lehman. Although what the other party said was doubtful, he knew that both of them were facts.

But there is no evidence now, so it’s just a suspicion!
"The third!"

Lehman didn't give everyone much time to react and continued, "Their reaction is very suspicious!"

"Back then, when they beat U2, they were so happy that they wanted the whole world to know about it."

"But this time, it was as if this incident had never happened, and it was even deliberately covered up by the satellite. This is not normal!"

"And being abnormal means it's out of control!"

After Lehman finished speaking, everyone remained silent.

The white-haired old man exhaled the smoke, his mind a little fuzzy.

Could it be that they really did it?
But given their level, how did they do it?
That’s a blackbird!
