The fall of Lin Biao (1 gen 1971 anni – 1 gen 1972 anni)

Descrizione:

- Mao became weary of Lin's (and the PLA's) growing influence
- The favour of the party was turned against him

- Lin participated in an assassination plot of Mao (staged by his son) but it was leaked (by his daughter)

- They fled on an aeroplane but it crashed over Mongolia (from an accident)

- Lin's denouncement caused some to doubt the party's and Mao's word, as Lin used to be revered
