Chapter 11411142An accident
"Originally, we wanted to do it at Nanshan Port, but the superiors felt that it would arouse the vigilance of their comrades, so they had no choice but to do it directly on the plane...disguised as an accident." He threw aside the oil-stained work clothes. , the field officer who had just performed the task said to his colleagues with a smile.
His colleague lit a cigarette in the car, then handed him another one and helped him light the fire. The two sat in the car and smoked.
If these people with Sophia gang background are blatantly killed, the remaining Sophia gang will definitely become nervous, and they will be more careful and cautious.
Although caution and caution are actually of no use, it is not a good thing to make the enemy cautious after all. So the Imperial Intelligence Agency thought about it and finally decided to disguise the operation as an accident.
This can continue to paralyze the enemy, continue to make them active, and make subsequent work easier to carry out. After all, letting the enemy know that his communications have become unsafe and that he has penetrated like a sieve will definitely force the enemy to be more careful in his next operation.
The companion in the driver's seat started the car and asked at the same time: "Are you sure they will crash?"
The agent in the back row smiled: "Are you still worried about my work? With those two Category III pilots with little flying experience, the success rate of dealing with this type of failure is only about 3%."
In order to be safe and not alert the Tang Empire's intelligence network, the other party chose pilots who had never been to the Tang Empire for training. These pilots were all trained in their own country, and their teachers or teachers' teachers had been there. A class of pilots from the Tang Empire.
The Tang Empire classified these pilots to facilitate estimation of their abilities and their ability to instigate rebellion. In short... Category 3 pilots are not worth inciting rebellion and are useless.
The colleague who was driving made a square turn at the intersection, and the car just blended into the traffic: "What if they really overcame the fault and landed successfully?"
The agent in the back row who didn't guess that Liu Jing had changed his route said confidently: "There is an alternative plan at Nanshan Port Airport. They will be arrested as soon as they get off the plane. Don't worry."
“Dear passengers! We have entered Chu State’s airspace.” The pilot’s voice came over the cabin’s broadcast, and everyone cheered. Everyone was very excited.
After all, this is definitely good news for those who are fleeing. At least they are out of danger, or... temporarily out of danger.
Liu Jing also felt that the danger was far away from him, because he felt that the emergency landing at Chuwangcheng Airport was a decision he made after getting on the plane. It was a temporary decision. No matter how powerful the Tang Dynasty was, it could not be considered this step.
So he thought he was safe, and the feeling of being stared at suddenly disappeared for a moment, which made him very comfortable.
In the cockpit of the plane, the two pilots were executing the orders of their sponsor. They had taken a lot of money, and had just received a large amount of money. Naturally, they were very dedicated.
Anyway, for them, it is the same whether they land at Nanshan Port Airport in Tang State or at Chu Kingdom City Airport.
"Call the airport!" Clutching the intercom, the captain had already begun to lie to the ground guidance: "Call the tower! Our plane has a malfunction! Our plane has a malfunction! Request an emergency landing, request an emergency landing!"
“This is the ground control tower! This is the Chu Kingdom City ground control tower! Shu flight number 90117! Shu flight number 90117! Please confirm your fault!”
“There is a problem with my fuel line! The instrument display is abnormal!” The pilot lied and said a fault that did not sound serious, but should allow the plane to land as soon as possible.
"I will guide you to land on the backup runway! Shu flight 90117! Please adjust your flight attitude and descend!" Looking at the spots on the radar, the dispatcher at the ground tower had a gentle attitude.
The C-47 transport aircraft itself often suffers from various malfunctions. This thing is completely different from the production standard of future civil aviation passenger aircraft. There are still many aviation accidents in this era, and only the aircraft of Datang Imperial Airlines are considered safe.
So it is common for pilots to report malfunctions and request emergency landings. Major airports in various countries have backup runways so that these malfunctioning aircraft can land quickly to troubleshoot.
Hearing the response from the tower, allowing them to land, the pilots who were flying the plane had a smile of success on their faces, and they began to control the plane to lower its altitude.
Inside the aircraft, the broken oil line was opened by the pressure, black oil sprayed everywhere, and the nearby lines also kept swaying along with the oil spray line.
"Strange! No response?" The pilot glanced at his instruments and found that many pointers were shaking and changing strangely: "Is this happening? The pressure is abnormal!"
“We are descending, but why doesn’t the altimeter change?” The pilot on the co-pilot was also puzzled. He had never encountered such a situation.
“The **** are not responding!” The captain kept trying to recover the aircraft, but the left engine suddenly caught fire, and the flames engulfed half of the wing in an instant. "What the hell! Why is there a fire!" The Shu pilot in the co-pilot suddenly screamed in fright. At the same time, the passengers in the cabin also saw the fire on the wing.
Suddenly everyone shouted, Liu Jing stared at the burning engine in stunned silence, and he understood everything in an instant.
It turns out that this is the danger! It turned out that the other party had never thought of catching him at Nanshan Airport, and would not wait until he went to the dock of Nanshan Port before taking action.
The other party is planning to kill him on the plane, or to kill all of them at once...the nobles and businessmen who defected from the Chu Kingdom.
In other words, the other party already knew everything, knew the connection between him and Qin, and knew Sophia's operation...
No matter what the other party knows, he may die today. Seeing the engine on one side of the plane burning, he didn't shout, just smiled bitterly and closed his eyes.
The Earl of Chu State next to him could not calm down at all. He shouted and cried, saying that he did not want to die yet, and wanted to return to Chu State to enjoy the glory and wealth.
But it was already too late. The attitude of the aircraft had begun to go out of control, the altitude was constantly falling, and the **** had been broken and broken due to the pull of the airflow and the invasion of the flames.
On the ground, the burning plane was seen swooping down, and the dispatchers at the control tower at Chu Wangcheng Airport were frightened.
That plane had just reported a malfunction, and they thought it was just a minor problem. Unexpectedly, the other party's malfunction was so serious that it burned in the air.
“Oh my god! I hope they are okay.” A female dispatcher muttered, covering her mouth and looking up at the plane that was gradually falling in the sky.
The plane was trying hard to maintain its attitude, and the pilot of the plane was reporting their efforts to the tower over and over again.
But everything was in vain. When it was still about 500 meters above the ground, the burning wing of the plane suddenly broke off, and the entire plane began to deflect uncontrollably.
The nose of the plane was completely misaligned with the runway, and they hit the ground about 300 meters outside the runway. The entire fuselage of the aircraft was instantly engulfed in burning flames, and then the huge inertia caused the body of the aircraft to break apart.
About 10 minutes later, the fire truck finally arrived at the scene. People could even see half-burnt bodies in the mess. The fire continued and was completely extinguished after more than two hours.
Originally, this plane was planned to fly to Nanshan Port Airport, so it carried sufficient fuel. The remaining fuel has not been completely burned, so the fire may not be extinguished.
After the fire was completely extinguished, the scene was already a hell-like scene. Next to the charred arm was a half-burned land deed, and Tang Dynasty's banknotes were blown everywhere by the wind, but unfortunately they were all incomplete.
The Chu State firefighters were rescuing people while picking up the banknotes that could still be spent. This plane was filled with rich people who had escaped from the Shu Kingdom. They all brought a large amount of gold and silver jewelry and banknotes. They found some They may be worth a lot of money!
It is a pity that they did not find anyone alive in the fire and wreckage, otherwise they would not have received any additional benefits from their life-saving grace.
The most miserable people were left with only black and charred corpses, curled up like tree branches. They were all fixed in their seats by seat belts, and the aluminum alloy frames around them were burned beyond recognition.
Everyone was very careful when handling the corpses. After all, the gold chains and rings were melted and embedded on the corpses. The firefighters of Chu State will carefully identify and pull out the golden parts, although doing so will damage the crispy charred corpses.
"We have a recording...the fault they reported themselves." The dispatcher was being questioned by the police. Naturally, Chu State would investigate such a big matter. It’s not that you have to throw the blame away. The accident is a problem of the Shu Kingdom and has nothing to do with you!
"They said there was something wrong with their oil line and the instruments were not normal..." She said with certainty, because she was telling the truth.
About a few hours later, Chu State’s radio station first reported the accident: a Shu Airlines Type 47 aircraft numbered 90117 crashed, killing all 31 people on board. Including two pilots, a navigator and 28 passengers.
The responsibility for the accident has been clarified. The fault of the aircraft itself was entirely due to the "oil circuit problem" caused by the failure of the Shu State to follow the maintenance procedures due to the war. The evidence is comprehensive: there are correspondence recordings and a large number of eyewitnesses.
Subsequently, the Tang Empire also forwarded this regrettable news: a civilian airliner crashed in Chu State, killing all 31 people on board.
