Four hundred and forty, government chartered flight
Then, Premier Zhou added: "However, it may be difficult to arrive before the 15th. Because according to the doctor's instructions, I cannot travel by car until four weeks after the operation. I don't need to consider this. I
Even if I set off now, it may not be in time. Because it takes five to six days to get from Kunming to the China-Myanmar border. Therefore, I will not be able to enter Myanmar until April 14th at the earliest. And it may take another one to get to Yangon.
Two days. Therefore, Mr. Ambassador, please convey this situation to Prime Minister U Nu and Prime Minister Nehru and ask for their forgiveness."
That evening, Ambassador U La Mao reported Premier Zhou's intention to Prime Minister U Nu of Myanmar.
On April 4, Ambassador Wu Lamao met with Premier Zhou again and brought Prime Minister Wu Nu's letter to Zhou Enlai.
The content of Prime Minister U Nu’s letter is as follows:
Your Excellency Zhou Enlai, Prime Minister of the People's Republic of China:
I learned with regret from Ambassador Wu Lamao that you recently underwent surgery for acute appendicitis. In view of your current health condition, I would never recommend that you travel by land from Kunming to Wanding.
I myself walked that road in 1940. So I know how tiring the journey will be for you in your current state of health. So I ask that you and your party, in ten
Fly direct to Yangon on the 3rd instead of the 14th, if that is possible.
This will allow you to have a good rest in Yangon before embarking on another tiring journey to Jakarta. The conference in Bandung itself will also be a very tiring conference. Therefore, I ask you to, before the conference,
Have a good rest in Yangon. As for the meeting at the border, when you and I meet here, it can be arranged at a convenient time after you have fully recovered.
At the end of the letter, there is the signature of Prime Minister U Nu, and the date is: April 4, 1955.
Prime Minister U Nu's letter actually requested Premier Zhou Enlai to arrive in Yangon by plane instead of by land, and the required arrival time was April 13th.
Director Chen also saw this letter. He was more determined to let Premier Zhou fly to Yangon.
What outsiders could not know is that in the following days, Director Chen relied on the power in his hands to secretly exert tremendous pressure on the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Civil Aviation Administration and the Air Force Command, requiring them to complete their tasks on time and
Strictly confidential.
From the sidelines, from February 10, 1955, when Premier Zhou Enlai formally replied to Indonesian Prime Minister Shastro Amijoyo, telling him that the Chinese government decided to participate in the Asian-African Conference,
As of April 4th, neither the Ministry of Foreign Affairs nor Premier Zhou and Director Chen had ever considered allowing the Chinese government delegation to take the "Kashmir Princess" flight via Hong Kong to Jakarta to attend the Asian-African Conference. Therefore,
There is no question of Premier Zhou Enlai's "temporary" change of schedule.
However, the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs did charter the "Kashmir Princess" aircraft from Air India through the Chinese Embassy in India, and specifically stated that it was a government charter flight to attend the Asian-African Conference in Jakarta. This was the world's first aircraft at that time.
Get on the largest and most luxurious plane with 81 seats.
What is strange is that from that time until today, no one has ever asked: Why did the Chinese government charter this plane?
In fact, all the intelligence personnel of Taiwan's Secret Bureau were confused by this plane. They all believed that this was a government charter plane, and that the people on this plane must be the CCP delegation led by Zhou Enlai.
To this day, calmly speaking, this "Kashmir Princess" aircraft belonging to Air India is a core factor in the "Star" plan formulated by Director Chen. Without this core factor, the "Star" plan would not be able to
Implementation, at least not effectively.
Therefore, based on the above situation, a more reasonable guess is that Premier Zhou Enlai knew about the "Star" project. The plan was even approved by him. Perhaps to him, Director Chen was the executor of the "Star" project.
However, no matter how precise the plan is, there are unavoidable accidents. Neither Director Chen nor Xiang Bu expected that their carefully formulated "Star" plan would cause a tragedy that shocked China and the world because of a serious oversight by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
"Takeaway Department", "Takeaway Department", what can people say to you?
The following story will be narrated slowly below.
Just as Director Chen instructed in the secret message sent to Du Ziyuan, at this time, the "Star" project had been launched. It's just that no one noticed it, or even knew about it.
Even Xinhua News Agency Hong Kong Branch Director Huang Zuozhu and Hong Kong Hongya Company General Manager Feng Dun did not know that there was a "Star" plan and that it had been quietly launched. They only knew that Du Ziyuan was performing an important task. The two of them
They all received instructions from the country and must do their best to cooperate with Du Ziyuan's work.
Therefore, these three people gathered in the back room of Du Ziyuan's room in Chaohai Building every night to analyze and study the organization and personnel distribution of Taiwan's intelligence agencies in Hong Kong according to Du Ziyuan's requirements.
Generally speaking, the organization and personnel of Taiwan’s intelligence agencies in Hong Kong can be divided into three situations.
First, they are genuine intelligence organizations and the bases or contact points of these organizations in various places. For example, the Hong Kong Special Intelligence Station of the Secrecy Bureau is headed by Kwan Kam-chow. Its subordinate bases include No. 41 Boundary Street, Waterloo Road, Yee
and companies, as well as the "Information Team" on Paozhou Street, etc., there are about dozens of them. In addition, Taiwan's National Security Bureau, Secondary Two Group, Secondary Six Group, etc. also have intelligence agencies in Hong Kong, but
None of them are as powerful and have many personnel as the Hong Kong Intelligence Station of the Secrecy Bureau.
Second, there are some peripheral organizations controlled by Taiwan's intelligence agencies in Hong Kong. For example, certain trade unions, chambers of commerce, media, various student associations, mutual aid associations, etc. There are many names and tricks, countless.
Third, there are personnel. One type is full-time intelligence personnel, stationed in some strongholds or liaison stations. The other type is intelligence personnel under the cover of legal profession. It is this latter type of personnel that makes Chen, who is far away in Beijing,
The director was deeply shocked. As I said before, on the surface it is the British Hong Kong government that manages all walks of life in Hong Kong, but in fact it is Taiwan's secret service that secretly controls it.
Based on the above situation, Du Ziyuan paid special attention to only two groups of people. One was the full-time intelligence personnel in genuine intelligence agencies, and the other was Taiwanese spies lurking in important positions in various systems of the Hong Kong government, such as Hong Kong's governments at all levels and courts.
, police, media, and Taiwanese spies hidden in relatively large social organizations.
Du Ziyuan knew best that the "Xingchen" plan mainly dealt with these two groups of people.
Du Ziyuan, Huang Zuozhu and Feng Dun analyzed and studied these two groups of people every night. One was to look at their affiliation with their superior intelligence organization, and the other was to look at their professional positions.
After Du Ziyuan and three other people have researched and determined, the list of these people will be handed over to Chu Bolin in the outer room and several people under Feng Dun. They will arrange their own people to monitor and track the people on the list.
Du Ziyuan gave them a very clear task, which was to secretly track and monitor and record their every move.
That night, when they handed the new list to Chu Bolin, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, Huang Zuozhu took this opportunity to ask Feng Dun about the progress of his business.
He said: "Lao Feng, when can Yu Zhidao's ship start shipping business?"
Feng Dun smoked a cigarette, nodded and said to him: "It's almost there. His 'Sichuan' is just for simple repairs, and all the procedures have been completed soon. It will probably be able to set sail in the next few days."
At this time, Huang Zuozhu took out a few pages of paper from his wallet and handed them to Feng Dun. "Old Feng, this is the bill of goods just sent from China. Take a look at it."
Feng Dun took the bill of goods and looked at it, and he also clicked his tongue. He understood that this bill of goods must be the most urgently needed thing for domestic economic construction. This urgent need has even reached the point of being impatient.
The total inventory includes the following materials: equipment (finishing machine tools, power transmission equipment, etc.), textile machines (including tops, yarns, etc.), metal utensils (non-ferrous metal products, tools, cutting tools, etc.), abrasives (emery, sandpaper, etc.)
Corrosives, etc.), chemical products, dyes, etc.
The above list may not seem long, but it is actually all-inclusive. Among them, there are dozens of types of finishing alone. Whether it is procurement or transportation, it takes a lot of trouble.
Feng Dun weighed the cargo list and said awkwardly: "Old Huang, these supplies cannot be solved in a short time."
Huang Zuozhu nodded and said: "I know, I know. But these are urgent needs in the country. You should find a solution as soon as possible."
Feng Dun thought for a moment and said: "What I'm most worried about now is Yu Zhidao, I'm afraid he will play some tricks on me!"
At this time, Du Ziyuan raised his head and said with a smile: "Old Feng, you don't have to worry. I have told you several times that this Yu Zhidao dares to do any business in order to make money. The key point is that you
If he wants to make money, it's best to make a lot of money."
Feng Dun said: "Lao Du, I also know this. However, there is one thing that makes me confused. The Zuo Shaoqing I mentioned to you last time, I have figured out her identity. She is an intelligence officer of the Secrecy Bureau
The staff member specializes in analyzing various intelligence from the mainland, and she is also very shrewd. She is with Yu Zhidao, and I am worried that there is some trick on the Taiwan side. If I lose money and don’t buy the goods,
Then my sin would be great."
When Du Ziyuan heard what he said, he couldn't help feeling a little confused. He didn't know that the Zuo Shaoqing Feng Dun mentioned was the Zuo Shaoqing he had always missed, because it was not the same name.
