Tang Jian pointed to the plane in front of him and asked, "Ouyang Yanqing, who is the pilot of the first flight experiment of this plane?"

Yan Fu pointed to a strong soldier with thick eyebrows and big eyes beside Liu Wenqing and said, "It's him."

Liu Wenqing stepped forward and explained: "President, when I was conducting gliding experiments, I was not very familiar with the operation of this aircraft, but he was able to complete the experimental tasks well every time, so Dean Ouyang chose him as the pilot of the first flight experiment. He was also willing."

Tang Jian looked up and down at the soldier in front of him, and saw a heroic spirit between the eyebrows and eyes, and his eyes were bright. Under Tang Jian's direct eyes, his hands were still naturally placed beside his trouser legs, without any panic or excitement, and his expression was very calm.

Tang Jian nodded with satisfaction. After seeing him, ordinary soldiers were either excited or frightened. Only this soldier could remain calm under his physical gaze. He is indeed a good seedling for a pilot. Being calm in situations and not being surprised by things is one of the essential elements to become an excellent pilot.

Tang Jian asked majesticly: "What's your name?"

"Report to the President, Air Force Lieutenant Jiang Junyi!" the soldier replied.

"Are you afraid to become a pilot for the first test flight?" Tang Jian continued to ask.

"Reporting to the President, it is Jiang Junyi's honor to die for the cause of national defense!" Jiang Junyi said with a firm expression.

"Haha, your reason is too big and cannot be called a reason. I want to hear your own inner thoughts." Tang Jian said.

Jiang Junyi's eyes flashed with emotion, and nodded and said, "President, I joined the army in Shandong. My hometown is Ling County, Guangdong. There are five people in my family. I am the eldest. A few months ago, my youngest sister wrote a letter saying that the family had more than 20 acres of land. My second and third brothers all went to work on the boat repair in Weihaiwei. My sister can go to school now. She lives countless times better than before. The family uses savings every month, and no longer goes hungry all day like before. I think the president's army is a army for war for the people. Even if I die when I fell to death with a test flight, it will be for the people. It is glorious to die, so I am not afraid!"

Tang Jian encouraged and looked at Jiang Junyi: "Yes, this is the real reason to convince people!"

Ouyang Yanqing added: "Jiang Junyi is simply a flying genius. In the last gliding experiment, he was the only one who landed safely, and everyone else had different degrees of damage. Only he completed the mission successfully with great vitality."

Tang Jian smiled and patted Jiang Junyi on the shoulder and said, "Go, I believe you will succeed."

Jiang Junyi nodded heavily with his lips, then put on simple windproof glasses, and jumped into the cabin agilely.

After Jiang Junyi sat in the cabin, the first thing he did was to check the various instruments around him, whether the joystick was flexible, and whether the engine was leaking oil, and he looked extremely serious.

Tang Jian nodded with satisfaction, and was indeed a talented person.

At this time, Yan Fu walked to Tang Jian with a suspicion, pointed to the plane opposite and said, "President, do you mean that you can fly by making these wooden frames and canvas assembled into an airplane? So what if you fly? It's too small and looks simple, it's not as good as the airship before! This is what you said, what you want me to see?"

Tian Aden explained: "Mr. Yan, this is just a temporary experimental aircraft. After it is gradually improved, the aircraft will be able to gallop across the blue sky like the eagle in the sky, invincible!"

Yan Fu was still reluctant to believe that the wooden rack in front of him could be like an airplane with two wings, like an eagle, galloping across the blue sky, invincible.

Tang Jian smiled and said, "Mr. Yan, it's useless to say more. Let's see the actual effect!"

Yan Fu nodded and stared at the plane in front of him that had almost completed all inspections.

Tang Jian began to admire the young man in the cabin from the bottom of his heart. How much courage does it take to make a person board this plane that he has never flew before regardless of his life or death?

After boarding the plane, two results were waiting for Jiang Junyi. One was that the experiment failed and fell to the ground and the other was that it soared into the sky. It has been named after history since then.

Although Ouyang Yanqing just said that they had done a lot of unpowered gliding tests before and the effect was very good, this time is different from the unpowered gliding test. As long as one of the aircraft or pilots has problems, years of research results will be considered completely failure.

Tang Jian could see that Ouyang Yanqing was even more nervous than him, and dense beads of sweat had already oozed out of his forehead, while Tang Jian clenched his fists, and the hearts of his fists were also full of sweat.

With a windshield, Jiang Junyi stretched out his right hand out of the cabin, gave him a thumbs up, and made a ready gesture.

After receiving the instructions, the ground crew immediately removed the four wheels' plugs. A soldier came to the engine, held his hands and started the engine with his hands.

Soon, black smoke came out from the rear of the plane, and the propeller in the front of the cabin slowly accelerated, making a loud roar.

Tang Jian's heart hangs at this moment. Yan Fu stared at the plane slowly moving forward with his eyes intently, while Tian Aden stamped his feet anxiously.

Speeded up!

The plane slowly accelerates in a straight line toward the distance!

The roar of the engine overshadowed everyone's nervous heartbeat. Tang Jian saw the plane's fuselage tremble slightly. While moving at high speed, the plane was almost approaching the tail of the runway. However, the fuselage showed no sign of climbing.

Just as Tang Jian's heart was about to jump out, in an instant, everyone clearly saw that the fuselage slowly rose under the lift generated by the wings on both sides. Soon, the two wheels in front of the fuselage were already suspended.

Then with a "whistling", the entire fuselage instantly broke free from the constraints of the ground and slowly climbed up. At the moment the plane left the ground, all the air soldiers near the airport burst into cheers like thunder.

Tang Jian breathed a heavy sigh of relief, Ouyang Yanqing gently wiped the sweat from his forehead, Tian Aden jumped up happily, and Yan Fu looked at the plane made of wooden canvas with disbelief that it actually flew up!

The plane slowly took off under Jiang Junyi's skillful operation and gradually rose to a height of 340 meters above the ground. The plane, which was still a giant just now, looked as big as a wheel.

As the plane was far away, the roar became smaller and smaller. Gradually, everyone only saw a small black dot. The smooth launch of the plane meant that it was more than half of the first test flight.

Tang Jian patted Ouyang Yanqing on the shoulder and smiled and said, "Ouyang Yanqing, you're doing a good job!"

Ouyang Yanqing smiled, with a confident smile on his face.

Ouyang Yanqing said: "Although it has been successfully launched, safe landing is very important. If you can go to heaven but cannot land, then this first flight experiment will not be a complete success."

After a while, the black dots in the distant sky appeared again, and the huge roar came from far to near, and it was Jiang Junyi who was back!

After a while, the plane arrived in an instant. Jiang Junyi made a bold dive over the airport. Everyone felt a strong wind blowing. When they opened their eyes, they found that Jiang Junyi was already flying the plane and rising up.

Tang Jian asked: "Ouyang Yanqing, is this also one of your experimental projects?"

Ouyang Yanqing patted his chest and shouted, "This Jiang Junyi, when did I tell him to dive? I haven't studied dive yet!"

Tang Jian laughed loudly when he heard this, and his favor for Jiang Junyi was raised to a higher level. He is indeed a talented person, and he is good at innovation in every aspect.

Next, Jiang Junyi drove the plane around the airport for a few times, and the eyes of the airport stared at the plane and kept turning.

At this time, Jiang Junyi was flying the plane from the front, and the two wings of the plane shook gently twice. Liu Wenqing immediately reminded: "Everyone is ready, Jiang Junyi is about to land!"

When everyone heard this, they held their breath and concentrated again. The runway on the airport was carefully checked again, and even a grain of sand or a small pool of water stains were quickly cleaned up.

Tang Jian looked at the plane slowly lowering altitude and couldn't help but clench his fists and became slightly nervous again. As long as he could land safely this time, the first test flight test would be a complete success!

Jiang Junyi operated the plane with a serious expression and slowly lowered the altitude. When he was about to approach the ground, Jiang Junyi gently pushed down the joystick. The four wheels under the entire aircraft fuselage rubbed violently on the ground a few times, causing an unpleasant smell of rubber.

After a few bumps, the entire plane slowly glided on the runway smoothly. With the sound of brakes, Jiang Junyi drove the plane and parked steadily on the runway.

The air soldiers burst into a shocking cheer instantly, and they all rushed to the plane. Jiang Junyi took off his windshield and jumped out of the cabin with flexibly skills.

After Jiang Junyi got off the cabin, he was caught by the soldiers like a triumphant warrior and threw it into the sky amid cheers. After falling down, he was thrown up again. Jiang Junyi's face was filled with a proud smile.

Ouyang Yanqing stood in the distance in a daze and murmured: "It's really successful!"

Tian Aden hugged Ouyang Yanqing and shouted: "Yes, yes, we succeeded!"

Yan Fu was already stunned at this time and could not speak when he looked at the plane for a long time.

Tang Jian patted Yan Fu and smiled and said, "Mr. Yan, don't you think this is flying?"

Yan Fu swallowed a saliva and said, "It's really flying."

Tang Jian smiled and said, "Mr. Yan, do you think if you put a Maxim machine gun on the plane and load a bomb, and at the speed of the plane, do you think the airship can resist it?"

Yan Fu pondered for a moment and said, "The flight speed of the plane is several times that of the airship. If the Maxim machine gun is installed on the plane, wouldn't the airship become a living target floating in the air?"

Tang Jian looked into the distance with deep eyes and said longingly: "This is just a simple purpose of the plane. I believe that one day, the Chinese Air Force will soar in the sky of the world like an eagle between heaven and earth!"
