Chapter 180 The Eve of Free Shooting

PreviousBack to directoryNext
The next day, Lieutenant Colonel Xie personally sent Li Hai to the outfield to take a helicopter back to Danfeng Base.

Before boarding the plane, Lieutenant Colonel Xie took out a badge and handed it to Li Hai and said, "This is the team badge of our Blue Star Brigade. Every badge is unique. You have helped us a lot. I will give you a special badge. Don't dislike it."

."

Li Hai took it solemnly, held it in his hand and observed it carefully.

It's not a beautifully crafted armband-shaped badge, but the content inside is pretty cool - it's a globe.

It seems to indicate that the combat scope of this force is global.

"Chief, I deserve this." Li Hai said sincerely.

Lieutenant Colonel Xie smiled and said, "No, you will definitely help us much more than you think. No more words, let's board the plane and we'll see you again when we have the chance."

"Goodbye!" Li Hai saluted and turned to board the plane.

A forest firefighting Mi-171 flew Li Hai back to Danfeng base, and another crew randomly flew another Mi-171 back.

After such an episode, as the weather improved, the training work was in full swing. Because of the Trek incident, Wei Lan's style became more cautious. Lin Xiaotong's body recovered and he resumed flying. He organized the training of the troops and no longer gave Wei Lan a chance to take the lead.

What surprised Li Hai was that except for the relevant personnel, no one else knew about the fact that he, Zhao Feiyan, and Zhan Yuntian assisted the brothers in the battle this time. Moreover, the three of them were gathered together for a confidentiality meeting.

Li Hai can no longer share his experience with others, not even Zhao Feiyan and Zhan Yuntian.

At this time, Li Hai had become a dual ace pilot with practical combat experience in fighter jets and helicopters. This was only the eighth month after he left the army.

At this time, Li Hai was in a polarized state. On the one hand, he had no basis for advanced combat training because it was only the training content for the second year of the army. On the other hand, he had a keener combat sense than senior pilots.

and actual combat experience.

A very contradictory person.

For example, today a week later, Lin Xiaotong convened a training meeting with all aircrews in the brigade to plan for tomorrow's live-fire training.

After five days of flight training, it was time for the live ammunition test of the ground attack subject, and everyone was gearing up.

After Lin Xiaotong announced the live ammunition shooting plan, Wei Lan added a few points that needed attention, and then asked everyone for their opinions.

Perhaps because of the psychological shadow of his previous forced landing in a Category 10 typhoon, Li Hai paid great attention to changes in the weather. While others were focusing on shooting, he was studying the weather for the next two days.

Until the last pilot who spoke finished speaking, Li Hai was still thinking.

Lin Xiaotong had to name him, "Li Hai, do you have any questions?"

It was at this time that Li Hai made his own judgment about the weather in the next two days. "The atmospheric pressure will change greatly tomorrow, so you need to pay attention to the changes in airflow when flying."

Everyone attaches great importance to his opinion, after all, there is a lesson learned from Wei Lan - if he didn't listen to Li Hai's opinion, he almost couldn't fly back.

Lin Xiaotong circled the weather and asked, "Do you have any other comments?"

Everyone looked at each other to confirm that there was nothing wrong.

Lin Xiaotong said, "Let me emphasize again that the Red Flag Division will also conduct live fire training tomorrow. Their target area and mission airspace are in the same direction and are connected to ours. Everyone, have a good rest tonight and have a clear look tomorrow.

Targets, don't hit the target area of ​​the Red Flag Division. Another thing that needs to be emphasized is that the two target areas are on the north side of the Daling Mountains. There is the plateau plain, and further north is beyond the border.

Everyone should pay attention to the scope of activities."

Weilan added, "Although it's free fire, you still have to pay attention to your methods. After all, this is not our territory. Don't do anything new and unconventional."

This sentence is very targeted. In daily training, Li Hai and the crew of Dang Weimin often use some methods that are different from those in the training outline. Li Hai is the master of Zhao Feiyan and Zhan Yuntian. Under the influence of Li Hai, Zhao Feiyan

He and Zhan Yuntian's crew also occasionally experienced this kind of situation.

There is no doubt that Azure's warning is aimed at them.

After the meeting ended, Dang Weimin and others left, and he lowered his voice and said, "Lao Li, did you provoke him again?"

"Who?" Li Hai asked.

The Party for the People pouted at the door and said, "Blue sky."

Li Hai said, "I didn't. It was you who provoked him."

"Shit, I'm not like you, you prickly head." Dang Weimin said.

Li Hai said helplessly, "Isn't it just that my flying skills are better, my tactical awareness is sharper, I can lock on to the target faster, break away faster after attacking, and my direct fire strikes are more accurate? It has nothing to do with the stabbing head."

Is it related?"

"Yo yo yo, you're out of breath now." Dang Weimin said coldly, "I can't tell that you have a face as thick as a city wall!"

Lehi said, "What I say is the truth."

He took out the topographic map of the target area, clicked on it, and said, "Stop talking about that useless thing, let's take a look at the targets we will shoot tomorrow. Take a look at the six targets assigned to us. Do you see anything?"

?”

Zhao Feiyan came over, without even looking at the map, and said, "The key to the six targets with the least ideal locations is that no matter which direction you enter the attack route, if you want to attack six targets in a row, you need to break away and re-enter at least three times.

"

"That is to say, under the same requirements, we will spend more time than others." Zhan Yuntian added the conclusion tacitly.

Li Hai immediately laughed, "We? The targets you were assigned were also these six?"

"Yes." Zhao Feiyan shook her head and smiled bitterly, "The organization probably believes that our capabilities should be subject to better standards of shooting testing."

Everyone understood this irony, which was obviously full of resentment.

Dang Weimin came to his senses, patted the table gently and said, "Yes, I wouldn't have noticed it if you didn't tell me. Guys, the results of this shooting test will be included in the annual training performance list. By the end of the year,

In terms of overall score, if you don’t play well, it will undoubtedly be a hindrance.”

"Wei Lan is not so petty," Li Hai said.

Zhao Feiyan said, "Master, everyone can understand why you are asked to shoot such a hell-level target. After all, you and Lao Dang have the most practical shooting experience. But we are also shooting such a group of targets. It doesn't seem to make sense."

?”

Nodding slowly, Li Hai said, "It is indeed inappropriate. At this stage, you should proceed step by step from easy to difficult. Directly shooting at high difficulty is not conducive to growth."

"Then the question is, if it's not to suppress us, then what's the reason?" Zhao Feiyan spread her hands and said.

Li Hai stopped talking. He didn't want to believe that Wei Lan deliberately suppressed the two crews, but with the facts in front of him, he had to believe it.

"Master, don't forget that it's time for us to go on duty in October." Zhan Yuntian reminded.

Li Hai nodded slightly, "Brothers, let's think about this problem like this. The brigade gave us the most difficult target to shoot. Do you think you can understand it this way? This is to value us and to give us more training.

Opportunity."

Seeing that everyone was deep in thought, Li Hai said with a smile, "Taking a step back, even if Qi Lan really has a little bit of thought, wouldn't that still mean Lin Da? Lin Da wouldn't do that."

Dang Weimin thought for a while and agreed, "Old Li is right, we may judge a gentleman with a villain's heart. Also, since we will return to the original army at the end of September after our temporary duty period has expired, then our annual comprehensive training results

It will no longer be under the control of the Eighth Hai Division."

Zhao Feiyan was doubtful, but he stopped talking about this issue.

After chatting for a while, the four of them simply discussed tomorrow's shooting tactics in the conference room.

The so-called free fire means demarcating the airspace, specifying the target, and stipulating ammunition. Everything else is left to the pilot to freely choose the course, flight altitude, airspeed, etc.

To put it bluntly, whether you want to penetrate at a high altitude or at a low altitude, destroy the specified targets with specified ammunition in the specified airspace. Completing these is the minimum requirement, referred to as "three-rule shooting."

There are opportunistic ways, such as Li Hai's crew and Zhao Feiyan's crew exchanging targets, so that the two crews only need to enter once to destroy six targets. However, this violates the requirement of "specified targets."

They can only honestly study tactics based on the requirements of the "Three Rules".

After the late roll call, Li Hai returned to the dormitory, washed up, took out the Seagull military camera, wiped it, and checked it again to ensure that it was in normal condition and would not delay use tomorrow. He had developed the habit of taking pictures, which would be helpful for subsequent review.

The disk plays a very big role.

Influenced by him, Dang Weimin also bought a camera. As a rear cabin weapons operator, he could free up more time for shooting.

So much so that before formation flight training, other crew members would come over and ask, "Take more domineering photos for me."

Later, there were so many people wanting to take pictures that Li Hai simply made a rule - once per meal.

It's a pity that no one has cashed it out until now, it's all done in bookkeeping.

There are restaurants on the Forgotten Reef. As the number of people on the islands and reefs increased, the people stationed on the islands and reefs saw this in the early years and opened restaurants. The local government also provided subsidies to ensure that the restaurants would make money.

Compensation. However, Li Hai and the others have heavy training tasks and basically have no time to go out to eat. They have to pay for these meals one meal at a time, which is probably difficult to cash out.

At this moment, people came one after another, all asking Li Hai and Dang Weimin to take more beautiful photos tomorrow.

Li Hai said immediately, "We are no longer on the islands and reefs at the moment. Danfeng City is more than 20 kilometers away from Danfeng Base. We will go out for the rest next week. You guys can pool your money to give us a big meal."

"No problem, Teacher Li, as long as we make us look domineering, a feast is nothing!" The pilots of several crews assured them by patting their chests.

Dang Weimin said, "That's it, don't fool us with homemade stir-fried dishes from roadside restaurants!"

"That's not possible. Let's just go to a five-star hotel. Each of us pays a thousand, and we can eat and drink as we please." Yu Yang said with a smile.

As Wei Lan's wingman, Yu Yang and Li Hai have a very good relationship. This person is very clear about public affairs and private affairs. He does whatever his superiors ask him to do, no matter who is involved, but he never mixes personal emotions with his work.

Nor will work be brought into life.

Li Hai grinned and said, "That's no problem, Squadron Yu. Tomorrow I will assign you to take a photo album of you fighting bravely in the ice and snow."

"Don't mention it, you should call me Lao Yu." Yu Yang is very humble. He can't help but be humble. Li Hai was also the deputy captain.

"Lehi."

Another person came in the corridor, and when everyone saw it, it turned out to be Azure.

"arrive!"

Li Hai put down the camera and went out immediately.

Wei Lan said, "Follow me."

"yes!"

Li Hai did not hesitate and followed Wei Lan. Not long after, he entered Lin Xiaotong's office. Everyone saw this scene and whispered.

"Teacher Li, you haven't done anything out of the ordinary these days, right?" Yu Yang asked with a frown.

Dang Weimin shook his head, "Everything is normal, and I didn't offend Deputy Captain Wei Lan."

"Look what you said, Vice Captain Wei didn't necessarily mean bad things by calling Teacher Li over." Another pilot said.

The party said for the people, "We will find out when we get back."

After saying a few more words, the group of people dispersed and went about their business.

About thirty minutes later, Li Hai came back.

Dang Weimin immediately asked, "Why did Weilan ask you to come over? Are you looking for trouble?"

"No, it's nothing, just go to bed quickly." Li Hai shook his head and sat at his desk, frowning in thought.

Dang Weimin pulled a chair over and sat down, "It's nothing but a ghost. Tell me, what's going on?"

Li Hai frowned and glanced at Dang Weimin and said, "It's okay. You just said that you judge a gentleman with a villain's heart, why can't you think about it now?"

"There must be something wrong." Dang Weimin said firmly.

Li Hai became impatient, "I told you it's okay, can you stop chirping in my ear like a grandma? Go and go to bed."

Dang Weimin frowned and said suspiciously, "Is it really okay?"

"Fuck." Li Hai raised his foot and kicked him over.

Dang Weimin quickly dodged away, and when he went to the bed, he turned around and said, "You must say something if you have something to say. I can't let you carry a crew member alone."

"Okay, you are so long-winded!"

Of course there is something, and it is a major matter, but it is not something that the party and the people think are contradictory. Even if Weilan really has an opinion on someone, he is first and foremost the deputy captain and the deputy commander, so he may play a little trick

Thoughts on my mind, I am absolutely unambiguous when it comes to business matters.

Lin Xiaotong met with Wei Lan and Li Hai because of an order from the Joint Staff directly forwarded by Haisi, which required the 167th Independent Flying Group Danfeng Base training unit to complete a strike mission.

This order was received a few days ago.

In other words, tomorrow's live-fire training is basically to provide cover for this strike mission!

After knowing the truth, Li Hai couldn't calm down for a long time. No wonder he arranged for Zhao Feiyan and Zhan Yuntian to attack the same target, because they were responsible for covering Li Hai's crew in carrying out the strike mission.

Also performing the strike mission with Li Hai was the Weilan crew, forming a two-plane strike formation. Moreover, the leader was Li Hai and Weilan was his wingman...
