Let the principal evaluate Li Hai's class in one word - superficial.
There is no depth, let alone breadth. At best, it is just some unrealistic fantasies of young cadres at the grassroots level.
However, what the principal wants is such a class, which is in line with the new students' thoughts and down-to-earth. Those high-level speeches are difficult to enter the hearts of the new students. It allows the new students to understand the current situation of the army and can provide them with
Confidence, this is the purpose of inviting special meritorious officials to come and give lectures.
Li Hai's performance has been widely praised, and everyone thinks that this young special meritorious official is very smart.
On the way to send Li Hai to the airport, Ding Min said, "Our principal said, you know it's inappropriate to talk about strategy or tactics. After all, you have only been in the army for a few months and you lack experience. You are not as good as experts and professors.
You are not a senior officer. You chose to talk about your views on the future of the Navy from the perspective of grassroots cadres. It is very accurate and caters to the interests of new trainees."
Li Hai never saw the principal because the principal was in Beijing for a meeting. These words were the principal's evaluation of him.
"The principal said that I hope you will have time to come to our University of Science and Technology to give lectures and give whatever you want," Ding Min said.
Li Hai smiled and said, "To be honest, if we talk about combat flight and carrier-based flight, I have something to talk about, but I really don't understand science and technology."
"You can speak what you want to speak, and we welcome you at any time." Ding Min said, "The principal has said that we will give you financial subsidies based on the associate professor level."
"That's no problem." Li Hai smiled happily.
The air ticket from Changsha to Wuya was purchased by the National University of Science and Technology, and Li Hai bought him a business class ticket at the associate professor level. Li Hai did not refuse. He could also pay for the transportation expenses, which was equivalent to thousands of dollars going into his personal pocket.
After arriving at Wuya, there was already a bus waiting at the arrival gate. The second-generation warrior parked on the side of the road, picked up Li Hai and drove directly to Shuilingchang Station.
The full name of Shuilingchang Station is Shuilingchang Station. It is one of the base stations of the Hainan Airlines. It is the location of the forward finger of China Southern Airlines and the headquarters of the Eighth Hainan Division.
The headquarters of the Air and Sea Guards Regiment.
Therefore, Shuilingchang Station is very large and very important.
Shuilingchang Station, which can accommodate a hundred fighter planes, has been the departure station for air patrols in the South China Sea before the construction of airports on various islands and reefs.
Today, the original fighter airport station has been built into a naval aviation base that can support combat and training of all types of fighter aircraft in active service.
When Li Hai arrived, he immediately saw the Baektu Su-30MK2 neatly parked on the open-air tarmac. The white radome was particularly eye-catching.
After several changes, it was finally determined that the number of Su-30MK2s to be handed over to the 167th Independent Flying Group was 12, and the rest remained at Shuilingchang Station to serve as training aircraft.
In other words, Li Hai will take back 10 Su-30MK2s this time. He will be accompanied by 19 pilots who have been officially transferred to the 167th Independent Flying Group. The rest of the support teams, etc., have already set sail on the transport ship together with the equipment.
.
It was also on this day that Li Hai learned that the new captain was Lin Xiaotong from the Haidong Youth League. He was transferred from the position of captain to the position of captain. It seemed like a smooth transfer, but in fact everyone knew that Lin Xiaotong would make progress soon.
Already.
The 167th Independent Flying Group is a large flying group with nearly 20 fighter aircraft. It has already caught up with a standard flying group. It is only a matter of time before it is promoted to a deputy regiment level unit.
Even in the long run, it is not surprising that the 167th Independent Flying Group has been promoted to an aviation brigade. After all, the gap in the Forgotten Reef is too big.
Lin Xiaotong took Li Hai to check out the 10 Su-30MK2s that had returned to the 167th Independent Flying Group, and said with a smile, "These ten Su-30s are in the best condition. They have been re-anti-corrosion treated, and the engines need to be overhauled."
After it was repaired, what needed to be replaced was also replaced.”
"It's not a big deal, there aren't many AL-31Fs," Li Hai said.
"Second-hand. Some of the airframes have reached the end of their service life and the engines are still good, so the engines are kept." Lin Xiaotong said, pointing to the thick tail of the Su-30MK2 passing by. "These aircraft are at least still good.
It can last four or five years."
But Li Hai said, "Not necessarily."
Lin Xiaotong suddenly smiled and said, "Li Hai, I've known you before."
"I remember that we fought against each other before, but later you ran out of fuel and diverted to our Forgotten Reef," Li Hai said.
Of course he will not forget that in that confrontation, he made Lin Xiaotong lose face, causing Lin Xiaotong to be scolded by Commander Sven. The entire Hainan Army knew that the Haidong Youth League's two J-11Bs could not defeat it.
Isn’t it embarrassing to have a J-8F?
Who would have thought, Lin Xiaotong shook his head and said, "No, it's at the Flying Shark Base."
"Flying Shark Base?" Li Hai was surprised.
Lin Xiaotong said with a smile, "I entered the Flying Sharks training team more than a month earlier than you, but we are a traditional class and you are a production class. Our squad leader is Han Hongjun, and he mentioned you."
"That's it!" Li Hai understood.
Lin Xiaotong sighed and said, "I was originally from the 300th Division of the Air Force. I entered the Flying Shark Training through selection. Unfortunately, I was eliminated in the first stage."
Li Hai said, "Carrier-based flight is really difficult. To be honest, when I returned to the Flying Shark training team after my temporary assignment, I was not sure whether I could make up for the progress. Why don't you return to the original unit? The 300th Division seems to have been modified to four
Is the machine ready?"
"Yes, a brigade has been changed." Lin Xiaotong said, "Yes, if I return to the original unit, I will definitely be able to modify fourth-generation aircraft in three or two years. But I still like to fly carrier-based aircraft. Chief Instructor Zhang Xueyang asked me
Do you want to join the naval aviation force? After more aircraft carriers enter service in the future, there will be many opportunities to modify carrier-based fighter jets. I agreed."
Li Hai nodded understandingly. If it were him, he would probably choose this way. There are so many pilots in the army. There may be requirements and standards for becoming an excellent pilot, but one thing is common - those who can become excellent pilots must be
It combines flight and ideals.
For example, for him, flying carrier-based fighter jets is his ideal, and becoming an excellent naval carrier-based fighter pilot is his goal.
The same is true for Lin Xiaotong.
He is not yet thirty years old. Judging from the career life of a pilot, he still has many opportunities to modify carrier-based fighter jets. If he returns to the Air Force, he will basically have no chance.
"Li Hai, I want to talk to you about something." Lin Xiaotong said in a deep voice.
Li Hai nodded and waited quietly.
Lin Xiaotong said, "The two deputy captains, except for one from the Sea and Air Force Boys, are the only ones you have ever seen. The other one was transferred from the Sea and Air Guards. His name is Wei Lan. He is only twenty-six years old, very young."
"I have seen the personnel list." Li Hai said.
Lin Xiaotong noticed that Li Hai's expression did not change, and felt a little guilty, saying, "To be honest, I didn't want to be transferred to the 167th Independent Flying Group, but I couldn't help it due to organizational orders."
Li Hai smiled and said, "Captain Lin, you underestimate me, Li Hai. Is my structure that small? Whatever the organization arranges, we are all soldiers. We should listen to the Party and follow the Party. Besides, I
I am just a temporary cadre. I was asked to be the deputy captain before. That was because there was no one. There were three or two kittens in total. Those who were not deputy captains were all pilots. You don’t know, it’s very long.
For a while, I was completely bare."
"Xue Da's body does not meet the conditions for a return to flight. The Party for the People has not allowed a solo flight. Zhao Feiyan and Zhan Yuntian have not been brought out yet. I was the only one who was supporting him during that time."
Lin Xiaotong laughed loudly, "I heard that during that time you flew two hundred flying hours a month, which is scary."
"Isn't it?" Li Hai said.
Lin Xiaotong said, "So I am too small. I thought you would feel unbalanced. In fact, with your performance and ability, you are more than enough to be the captain. Any qualifications are nonsense. With your experience, all
Except for Mr. Li and a few others, no one can compare with him."
"You can't say that. I'm confident enough to let me charge forward and fight. But when I'm suddenly asked to lead a force with twenty aircraft, I don't have any confidence at all." Li Hai said matter-of-factly.
.
Operations and the daily management of the army are completely different. Li Hai is self-aware of this. If you don't see that a deputy regiment is promoted to a full regiment, a deputy division is promoted to a full division, and a deputy army is promoted to an army, as long as you encounter such a hurdle, don't worry about it.
Who you are, what your education background is, and what your abilities are, you all need to attend a training class.
As far as military cadres are concerned, an army can only have one commander, but it can have several deputy commanders. The commander must consider the situation faced by the group army and make decisions. The deputy commanders are the ones who implement the decisions.
Just like the first-in-command and second-in-command in a local unit, in the impression of ordinary employees, except for meetings, they almost never hear the first-in-command speak, but they usually have many opportunities to interact with the second-in-command.
The difference between the first-in-command and the second-in-command is not only the level, so no matter how many second-in-commands reach the end, they will not be able to become the first-in-command.
At this time, Li Hai also officially learned that his deputy captain had been raped. He was a temporary position, and he was raped without even giving an order.
"I have met Wei Lan, he is very powerful. He became a squadron leader in his second year in the army and won the golden helmet that year. His innovative J-11B one-to-two air combat tactics once gave the Western Falcon Brigade a headache."
Lin Xiaotong introduced it.
"You know the Western Falcon Brigade, the most powerful blue army in the army. Since its establishment by President Li, it has been invincible all over the world. It is the only standard force for the Air Force and the Navy to test their combat effectiveness. How many golden helmets are broken in the Beiku. The blue is very
Unusually, he used a one-for-two strategy, with three J-11Bs fighting against the three J-11Bs of the Western Falcon Brigade, and the battle loss ratio was one to two."
"So powerful?" Li Hai was surprised, "I remember that the Western Falcon Brigade has the most experience in using the J-11B. They can use this fighter to a tie with the J-10C of the Dahongying Division in close combat.
superb."
Lin Xiaotong nodded slightly, "Yes, when the J-10C is up against the J-11B, in a close air battle, the latter's chance of winning is almost zero. If the Western Falcon can tie, it's very powerful. The J-11B I've been flying is
Eleven B, we are very aware of the gap between this aircraft and the J-10 series. In close air combat, even the J-10 A cannot beat it, let alone the C-type aircraft that uses a lot of fourth-generation aircraft technology."
Li Hai said, "Deputy Captain Weilan's ability to defeat the Western Falcon Brigade is really impressive."
"But it was just that one time. Later, the Western Falcon Brigade improved its tactics and regained the advantage. In the final analysis, the Western Falcon Brigade has a natural battlefield, and the most important thing is actual combat experience." Lin Xiaotong said with a smile.
Li Hai nodded slightly and remembered what Dang Weimin said some time ago - that most of the Western Falcon Brigade was transferred to Duda Station for training.
"But Weilan is a young man after all, and young people are inevitably a little arrogant. You may have to be more patient in the future." Lin Xiaotong said.
Li Hai was stunned.
First of all, Lin Xiaotong's words are very interesting. What is tolerance? This is not the tone of superiors talking to subordinates. Why should Wei Lan be specifically mentioned? This is another question.
However, it is obvious that Lin Xiaotong knew that Li Hai would return to the Flying Sharks training team in a few months and was not from the Eighth Hai Division in the first place, so it is understandable to use the term "take care of".
The reason why he specifically mentioned Wei Lan, Li Hai guessed, was probably because he was worried that two very capable young people would produce some bad sparks when they met.
Lin Xiaotong took over the baton from Xue Zhengrong and became the team leader. This was the beginning of the takeoff of the construction of Forgotten Reef. He decided to work hard and make some achievements. He already had people like Li Hai who had won special honors in particularly important tasks.
Super pilots, as well as new representatives of the younger generation of pilots like Wei Lan, must give full play to their roles, and we must first ensure that they can live in harmony.
Therefore, Li Hai concluded that Lin Xiaotong was inoculating him, and Wei Lan should be a bit domineering.
The twenty-six-year-old deputy captain is one of the few pilots who can defeat the Western Falcon Brigade, a golden helmet pilot, and has innovative tactics. If he were any young man, he would probably be more or less energetic.
Being young and energetic is not a bad thing.
Li Hai is also very loyal, otherwise he would not have strongly requested an emergency landing with a faulty bomb.
In fact, Lin Xiaotong is not a young man. He is still several months away from being thirty years old. His thinking is still a little inappropriate. This should be said to Weilan, because Weilan is the deputy captain, and Li Hai is now
Just an ordinary pilot.
This shows that Lin Xiaotong is worried that some of Li Hai's disapproval of Wei Lan's actions will cause conflicts, rather than worrying about what Wei Lan will do against Li Hai.
Then the problem is very clear - the superior leaders think that Li Hai is difficult to manage and is a thorn in the side. When he meets Wei Lan, a deputy captain who is about the same age and has great ability, it is easy to cause problems. At least Li Hai thinks that is what Lin Xiaotong thinks.
of.
After all, Li Hai had been exposed to it for so many years. After thinking about it carefully, he understood the meaning and immediately said with a smile, "Lin Da, don't worry, I will position myself correctly and resolutely obey the instructions of the brigade party committee."
, do your job well.”
Lin Xiaotong only came to his senses at this time and thought to himself, am I thinking that others are a fool or am I a fool myself? Why are I talking about this?
"Li Hai, I don't mean anything else." Lin Xiaotong said with a wry smile.
Li Hai waved his hand and said with a smile, "Lin Da, I understand. In fact, you don't have to worry, it's only a few months anyway. To put it bluntly, no matter how hard, tired and difficult it is, it's just a few months."
Lin Xiaotong sighed, patted Li Hai on the shoulder and said, "Anyway, just don't misunderstand me. I really don't mean anything else. I didn't make my words clear. It's my fault."
Li Hai said, "If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known that I was labeled as difficult to manage in front of my superiors. Speaking of which, I have to thank you."
"Oh, the more I talk, the more unclear I am. I won't say it anymore. Let's go and check the supporting ammunition. We will transport it together on a transport plane tomorrow."
