At nine-thirty at night, the lights-out signal in the barracks was blown, and Musha Island suddenly fell into darkness, and local agencies also turned off their lights. Only places on duty on the entire island, such as ports and airports, were always lit.
wait.
Although Musha Reef is under the jurisdiction of Sanhai City, until today, it has a relatively strong military component. The local government fully cooperates with the construction of military facilities on the island, and economic development is placed in a secondary position.
Therefore, tourism had been open for a period of time before, but later these civilian activities were canceled due to a series of confidentiality issues involved in the construction of the naval air station.
In terms of land operations, especially special operations, Li Hai is considered to be semi-savvy. Previously, he and Dang Weimin cooperated with the Army's special forces in the Northeast, and were transferred to conduct actual test flights of the J-16. He also had experience in the Northwest.
In conjunction with the content of land operations, over time, he gained a lot of understanding of land special operations.
Taking advantage of this opportunity to study with the Mushajiao Coastal Defense Company, Li Hai also systematically learned relevant tactical theories.
It is unrealistic to expect to build a mature Marine Corps in one night. It is also unrealistic to improve combat skills, movements and physical fitness. You can only learn theory.
It's satisfying to learn some theory in one night.
In fact, the best situation is that Chen Meng and his team continue to accompany the ship. However, they have other tasks and have returned with Suludong and others.
If you expect others to be unreliable, you will have the confidence to do so yourself.
It was a rare meeting between the two brothers. Dang Weimin accompanied Li Hai to learn while chatting with Li Hai about the recent situation.
Talking about the Leonin aircraft carrier, Dang Weimin said, "The Leonin is about to be overhauled, and the new aircraft carrier must form combat effectiveness before then. We may have to dispatch to the new aircraft carrier to work."
"New aircraft carrier? Sa'an Uno?" Li Hai asked subconsciously.
"Yes." Party for the People said.
Li Hai nodded slightly and said, "After all, it's time to form combat effectiveness. It's just that the Leonin has reached the overhaul period so soon. This is a bit unexpected."
"With such high intensity of use, it is normal for it to enter the overhaul period," said Dang Weimin.
Li Hai said with emotion, "You guys are so popular and so popular. I'll continue to work hard on the sea. I don't know when it will end."
"You think everyone can have the opportunity you have, just be content." Dang Weimin said, "When you come back from your studies, you will be the commander of the aircraft carrier formation, and we will all be under your command."
Li Hai waved his hand and said, "I just want to fly a plane. Speaking of which, the twenty-something people in our growth class should all have obtained the qualification for landing on a ship, right?"
He has never forgotten that he is a member of the first growth class, the first batch of growth-type carrier-based fighter pilots trained by the Navy. This group of people has been experimental in nature since the day they formed the class, and they are also part of the Navy's exploration and construction
The first attempt at a carrier-based fighter pilot training model.
According to the prescribed trajectory, the party serves the people on this line, but Li Hai has deviated from it. With the passage of time and understanding of relevant policies, Li Hai found that his hope of returning to the Feisha Army became increasingly slim.
Make him feel melancholy.
The Party for the People doesn't know how to comfort Li Hai. There is no document confirming that the higher-level leadership organization wants to train Li Hai in the direction of a flight captain, even though this is his current situation.
After gathering his composure, Dang Weimin said, "All of them have obtained daytime landing qualifications, and they are all excellent. Our class has had a good start, and many teachers have been credited."
Lehi asked, “What about the night ones?”
"This... it's not available yet, and I haven't gotten it yet. It's too difficult." Hearing this, Dang Weimin smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Old Li, you don't know, it's really difficult."
Li Hai said, "The disadvantage of the growth class is that it has short flying hours and little flying experience. The traditional class is selected from shore-based fighter pilots. They start with thousands of flying hours and have rich night flying experience. You have just started, and you will be late."
It is completely understandable that we have been unable to overcome the difficulties."
Dang Weimin suddenly felt something in his heart and asked, "If it were you, how long would it take for you to obtain the qualification for night landing?"
It's a silly question to ask, because there's no way to tell for sure.
But Li Hai was no ordinary pilot.
Li Hai pondered for a moment, and based on his understanding of night landings and prediction of difficulty, he gave a relatively conservative answer, "Fifteen sorties."
"Fifteen?" Dang Weimin's eyes almost popped out, "I've flown almost fifty sorties!"
Night landing is the most difficult of all basic subjects. Obtaining night landing qualifications means having all-weather combat capabilities. On this basis, advanced subjects such as complex meteorological conditions at night and high sea conditions at night are derived.
It took the party for the people fifteen sorties to obtain the qualification for daytime landings, but the difficulty of nighttime landings was completely different.
Li Hai also widened his eyes and said, "Fifty sorties? Don't you know that the price of fuel has increased now? You are a loser! I can fly out of complex weather after fifty sorties."
!”
Party for the people:...
Every time Li Hai acts like a stingy miser, the party and the people are speechless. He is clearly the one who spends the most money, and he is the least frugal...
However, Dang Weimin suddenly thought that Li Hai would save the most money when it comes to investing in pilot training! Because he can always reach an excellent level with fewer sorties. To put it bluntly, he can fly designated subjects with less fuel.
!
Li Hai didn't know what the party was thinking about. He thought the party was going to refute, so he immediately went on to say, "Are you trying to say that I spend the most money? Please think about it carefully. The place where I spend the most money is in combat."
, I am performing a mission, and what I earn from fighting is money, and besides, my method can achieve the best results."
"What about training? Have you ever thought about it, among the 20 or so people in our growth class, I am definitely the student with the least investment in training. Netizens say that training a carrier-based fighter pilot requires a lifetime of gold. According to this standard, I will die.
It just cost two legs of gold, definitely less than one-third of yours, maybe even lower!"
Looking at the excited Li Hai, Party for the People nodded slowly and was dumbfounded, "Yes, what you said makes sense. I never thought that low training efficiency would have such serious consequences. It is all the blood and sweat of the people."
Money..."
"You just know." Li Hai snorted and pointed to the No. 53 ship on the other side of the dock. "Do you know why the Navy still retains these old ships until now? There are many reasons, and one of the important reasons is to keep these old ships.
It is a waste of money to eliminate ships. It is not as simple as replacing old ships with new ones. It also involves personnel training costs, increased training costs caused by technical differences, etc. I only figured it out recently. I used to
I didn’t think about it that way.”
Dang Weimin was very impressed and said, "Sure enough, being a captain is different. You have a broader perspective, see things from a higher level, and consider problems more comprehensively. Old Li, it is not a loss to be transferred to the surface ship force."
"Okay, don't comfort me. All in all, revolutionary soldiers are just bricks. They can go wherever the organization tells them to go. Your kid must also be mentally prepared. I might as well transfer you to the Northwest."
Li Hai said fiercely, as if I can't live well with you, and I can't live well with you either.
Dang Weimin was startled, then thought about it and said with a smile, "The Northwest is not bad either..."
Li Hai was stunned and suddenly remembered that the Northwest Falcon was stationed over there. He sighed and said, "Yeah, the Northwest Falcon is also pretty good..."
That is the number one ace of the Air Force Aviation Force. Previously, the Flying Shark Force selected carrier-based fighter pilots from all the fighter pilots in the army, and the largest number of pilots came from the Northwest Falcon Brigade.
The Flying Shark Force likes pilots from the Northwest Falcon Brigade very much, because it is more efficient to modify the carrier-based fighter jets!
"Don't worry about gains and losses. Just make peace with what you have come and work well as your frigate captain. You may become the captain of an aircraft carrier in the future. Isn't that another way?" Dang Weimin said.
Li Hai said helplessly, "That's all I can think about now. If we don't talk about this anymore, when do you plan to withdraw?"
The support mission here is over, and Dang Weimin and the other four people will naturally return to Jian.
Dang Weimin said, "We have received the order. When the Saan'ono arrives, we will go directly there and not return to the Leonin."
"That's fine." Li Hai said, "It's almost time for me to leave."
The two brothers hugged each other and said goodbye. When Li Hai led the team back to the dock, Xue Zhengrong, Zhan Yuntian, Zhao Feiyan, Wang Xiaowei and others were already waiting there to see Li Hai and the others off.
Soldiers are not so sentimental and salute each other without saying anything.
In the thick darkness, Ship No. 53 slowly pushed away. After adjusting the direction of the ship's bow, it slowly accelerated into the dark night. Xue Zhengrong and others stopped at the dock for a long time until they could no longer see the ship on the mast of No. 53.
Navigation lights.
At three o'clock in the morning, the No. 53 ship arrived at the designated sea area. This was not the mission sea area, but the place to rendezvous with the supply ship. Musha Reef did not yet have the ability to replenish ammunition for combat ships, so the ammunition consumed most of the No. 53 ship.
The No. 1 ship will rendezvous with the supply ship for the second round of supplies.
On the bridge, Li Hai carefully searched the sea. He saw a 10,000-ton ship, but it was a merchant ship, and this was the only ship.
"The supply ship is late." Li Hai frowned.
Chang Haizhou said, "That should be it."
"What?" Li Hai didn't respond.
"That's the merchant ship." Chang Haizhou pointed to the merchant ship anchored not far away.
Li Hai was surprised and said, "The merchant ship will supply us?"
Chang Haizhou explained, "In order to make up for the lack of support ships, we have long-term requisitioned ships, which are similar to maritime militia."
Li Hai understood.
The navy often requisitions merchant ships as a supplement to its strength, and the coast guard often does the same. For example, the coast guard requisitions steel offshore fishing boats all year round to maintain all-weather patrols in some important sea areas. This is a more economical way.
However, it is still relatively rare to use merchant ships to supply ammunition to combat ships.
Sure enough, the merchant ship sent a signal, and the two sides established contact. Ship No. 53 slowly moved closer, and the two ships were close together. Under the large searchlight, the crew on the merchant ship controlled the crane and skillfully lifted the ship No. 53.
Replenish your ammunition...
