Chapter 1032: No Agreement

The information provided by Gong Danbing must have shocked all the leaders present.

In this case, it is unlikely that the Americans will urge China to release the plane, at least not in a short time. It is impossible to say that they are not interested in the technical data on the plane.

When the top leaders were urgently consulting with the top leaders of the Military Commission on this matter, Fan Wubing also saw a relatively detailed record of the collision data.

At 7:20 a.m. on April 1, the radar was actively turned on and was interfered by an unknown signal. There were three people on duty at the time. The duty monitor decisively issued an order to confirm the interference information and immediately reported the situation to his superiors, and started anti-interference measures. The leader of the radar station at the time also reflected the same thing, but the superior he reported to was the military region, and then naturally began combat readiness. In fact, if you know some military knowledge, you should think that the military radar is generally not allowed to be interfered with, unless there are some irresistible natural conditions or military interference. Our army officially confirmed that it was electronic interference military aircraft that interfered with our radar at 8 a.m., which lasted about half an hour, and the interference was eliminated, and the air defense firepower also tracked the enemy.

At the same time, the matter was also reported to the top of the Military Commission. The top of the Military Commission meant that it was not allowed to allow the enemy's reconnaissance aircraft to conduct reckless reconnaissance, and it was necessary to show its color, but if possible, it could be captured and its technical data and some confidential technology could be obtained.

Two Chinese fighters went to the southeast airspace of Hainan Island to perform tracking and surveillance missions.

About seven minutes after takeoff, a large aircraft, namely the Type 43 reconnaissance aircraft, appeared at 20 degrees to the left and 50 kilometers away. According to the decision of the Military Commission, our military command decided to force our military aircraft to make an emergency landing. To be honest, they wanted to capture this US military reconnaissance aircraft, which was very expensive and technologically advanced. The electronic communication at that time was roughly like this: This is Chinese airspace, your aircraft has illegally entered our airspace, please change the course by 40 degrees and maintain the course, we will escort you to land at our airport for inspection, etc.

The US aircraft did so at first. However, it also reported the situation to the US military base. The instructions given to the US aircraft were: No matter what, you must not be caught, escape or delay time to wait for military aircraft rescue. Therefore, at 9:05, the US aircraft adjusted its course to 110 degrees, and our fighter plane also adjusted it to 110 degrees to be parallel to the US aircraft, mainly because it could see that the other party had the intention to resist.

At 9:07, the American plane turned sharply and pressed towards Wang Wei's plane. In fact, the captain of the reconnaissance plane at that time meant to force Wang Wei's plane so that our fighter plane would make way for the time difference and escape, but the mistake was at this point. At that time, Wang Wei and his team received the order to make this reconnaissance plane land intact at the Chinese airport. The collision also happened at this time. In fact, it should be that the leaders of the Military Commission made up their minds and would rather abandon a fighter plane than leave the US reconnaissance plane, so Wang Wei's plane should not move. Waiting for the US plane to hit, at the same time, the propeller on the outer side of the left wing of the US plane smashed the vertical tail of the plane driven by Wang Wei into pieces.

The plane was stable and damaged.

Wang Wei parachuted.

In fact, the J-8 aircraft is very strong. It is not the kind that will be damaged by a collision with an American reconnaissance plane. It is a fighter with the reputation of being a beautiful man in the sky, which was obtained by the hard work of engineers from the Shenyang Aircraft Manufacturing Company.

After Wang Wei crashed, another fighter immediately took the attack position behind the 43 and asked the command post to shoot down the American plane. Due to the high speed, the aircraft rushed forward and backward and turned back again to take position, requesting to attack, but the attack was stopped after multiple requests, and had to return due to low fuel.

The American aircraft was bitten on the tail by the J-8 many times, and the crew had already been scared to death.

According to the damage, the aircraft could have returned to the US military base, and the US military command also asked the aircraft to return many times, but the US military crew saw the J-8 turn back and bite its tail many times, and turned around and flew towards Hainan, mistakenly thinking that the Chinese fighter asked the American aircraft to follow it, so this group of air hooligans who were later named "American heroes" didn't care about anything to save their lives, and turned around and followed the Chinese fighter to Hainan.

Due to the speed, the two aircraft landed more than 20 minutes apart. During this process, the US aircraft always pressed the flight path of the Chinese fighter, fearing that it would cross the line and be attacked and buried in the sea.

So, such a passive collision of the Chinese side made the Chinese side active due to the poor performance of the US crew.

Before and after the landing of the 43, the US crew did destroy some equipment, but it is easy to smash the control panel, but it is difficult to smash the core equipment in the background. It is easy to delete data logically, but it is difficult to do a thorough physical deletion.

After landing, the US crew refused to let the Chinese personnel board the plane. In fact, the soldiers of the airport guard company surrounded the plane with weapons. The US crew had been paralyzed by fear and asked the Chinese personnel in unclear Chinese for prisoner treatment.

On the same day that the White House said that the responsibility was shirked and the facts were distorted, the domestic defense coffee double hundred people also spoke, using a lot of facts to show that the direct cause of the collision was that the US 43 reconnaissance plane invaded Chinese airspace, and after being warned, it still went its own way, blatantly violated the flight rules, and suddenly turned towards the Chinese fighter plane. The US should bear full responsibility for this incident.

In the following days, people across the country further expressed indignation and condemnation of the US reconnaissance plane crashing into our military aircraft. The international community also expressed comments, supporting China's position and criticizing the US attitude.

"European Times" published a commentator's article condemning the US government's hegemonic behavior in handling the plane collision incident. The American "International Herald" also published articles. Pointing out that the United States conducts aerial reconnaissance activities against China is an insult to China. Commentary article in Australia's The Australian newspaper. It is believed that the United States should apologize to China for its military reconnaissance plane that crashed into a Chinese military aircraft because the U.S. reconnaissance plane was engaged in espionage activities.

As the situation became more complicated, the plenipotentiary representative of the U.S. Ambassador to China, Pullich, held a second emergency consultation with the Chinese Assistant Minister of Foreign Affairs and others. During this period, Fan Wubing was also invited to participate in the talks as a mediator.

At this time, the Assistant Foreign Minister had urgently summoned the U.S. Ambassador to China Pulrich yesterday to lodge stern representations and protests with the U.S. regarding this matter.

U.S. President Bush has also convened an emergency meeting of the U.S. National Security Council at the White House to discuss the incident in which the U.S. military used a reconnaissance plane to crash a Chinese fighter jet and the upcoming situation in Sino-U.S. relations. Bush said he was disturbed by the Chinese government's response and asked to meet with the crew without more interference and asked China to return the US military aircraft, but made no mention of the disappearance of the Chinese pilot.

A U.S. Department of Defense official said that the U.S. Navy was trying to monitor the development of the situation. Three destroyers were dispatched to the vicinity of Hainan Island and will stay in the South China Sea area.

The No. 1 statement said that the United States should stop reconnaissance flights in China’s coastal airspace. This can prevent similar incidents from happening again and is conducive to the development of Sino-US relations. It also demanded an apology from the United States.

However, US Secretary of State John Will refused to apologize for the crash of a US reconnaissance plane into a Chinese military aircraft. Bush also made a televised speech later, asking the Chinese government to release US military personnel and aircraft.

Both China and the United States insist on their positions and demands, and the two sides are in a stalemate.

The plane collision was an unexpected incident and a major crisis faced by Sino-US relations just thirty-nine days after George W. Bush took office. In front of the Chinese side, there are three options: the first is to release both humans and machines, the second is to release humans and machines at the same time, and the third is to release humans first and then the machine.

In fact, on the second day of the collision, China had already established the principle of separation of man and machine. This is mainly because. If the 24 American crew members are detained in China for too long at this time, it will arouse strong resentment among the American people.

Secondly, Easter is coming in the United States. This is a very important holiday in the United States. If the American crew members cannot be reunited with their families by then, it will also cause the ordinary people in the United States to be disgusted with China, and the diplomatic struggle against China will be serious. cause adverse effects.

The Assistant Minister of Foreign Affairs said, "Yesterday, U.S. diplomats met with the crew for the first time and said that the 24 crew members were safe and sound. Today, the No. 1 commander instructed the Ministry of Foreign Affairs before visiting Latin America. Apologize first, then Release the people, pointing out a way out to solve the problem. At the same time, the No. 1 commander once again publicly reiterated the position of demanding an apology from the United States, and the Foreign Minister summoned the US Ambassador to China Pullich in Beijing to discuss the US military's use of a reconnaissance plane to crash into the Chinese navy. On the same day, US Secretary of State John Will expressed regret for the disappearance of the Chinese pilot and wrote a personal letter to Vice Premier Qian of the State Council, expressing his regret. The biggest disagreement between the two sides now is. The prerequisite for releasing people is completely in the right hand of the United States, so we have only one principle: "If the United States does not apologize, it cannot release people."

Purich's representative protested, "The final decision on this matter has not yet been made. The White House and the Pentagon have not yet received an acceptable detailed report. An apology would be inappropriate and unacceptable to the United States, and the United States is also worried that The crew will encounter unfair treatment in China, so the US principle is to put the people and the plane back first and then negotiate.

All in all, both sides insisted on their own positions and refused to give in to each other. The negotiations reached a deadlock for a while, and both sides set their sights on Fan Wubing as the mediator.
