The fully loaded Cheetah 2030a was galloping off-road on the desert combat readiness road. Li Zhan, who was in the co-pilot, pointed to the dirt road heading west and said to Pei Lei, "Take a shortcut and get back to the station before dark."
"yes!"
Pei Lei plunged into the unpaved dirt road at the fork in the road ahead. The Cheetah off-road vehicle suddenly kicked up bursts of dust. The good suspension kept the vehicle stable and continued on the road at full speed.
Looking back at the four people in the back row and the third row, Li Zhan threw a pack of cigarettes into Nie Jianfeng's hand, "Old Nie, start smoking for the brothers. You can't smoke even if you want to when you get to the station."
Nie Jianfeng took the cigarette and handed it out one by one, "Deputy Captain Lin, Liu Xiao, Xiao Tang, come and smoke a cigarette from Captain Li."
Lin Haodong, deputy commander of the Sixth Regiment of the Second Division, Liu Xiao, captain of the Seventh Brigade, Tang Leilei, captain of the First Squadron of the Ninth Brigade, and Nie Jianfeng, captain of the Ninth Brigade, formed the flight instructor group sent by the Second Division.
At this time, Li Zhan took the car to Beiku Airport to pick them up and returned to Beiku Station. The flight was delayed for more than an hour, which made it difficult to get back to the station before dark without taking a shortcut. There were nights tonight
Li Zhan didn't want to miss the aviation training, so he asked Pei Lei to take a shortcut and speed up.
Li Zhan had a lot of questions about the organization and job changes of Nie Jianfeng and his old comrades, but he couldn't ask in front of Lin Haodong, and there were some things that were hard to talk about. However, Li Zhan realized that within the Second Division,
The changes have been huge. Could it be that some of the legendary reform actions have begun? The training tasks are usually heavy, even if it is a military system, the opportunity to have a phone call by chance is rare. Therefore, Li Zhan does not master the Second Division.
Case.
Chatting along the way, it has been a year since I left the Second Division. The last time I received the J-7e, I hurriedly met with Yu Chenglin, Tang Leilei and other senior brothers from the Fourth Regiment. I was called to the military area for a meeting. There was no chance to say more.
No, now that some of the best old comrades-in-arms have arrived, naturally they have endless things to say.
The last time the Sixth Regiment went to Dongkuchang Station for training, Nie Jianfeng and Tang Leilei did not participate. Therefore, Li Zhan did not know that they had been transferred to the Sixth Regiment. Lin Haodong and Liu Xiao participated, and they were severely punished by Li Zhan.
, especially when Li Zhan took off alone in the J-6 Plus and defeated Qi Hong with fearless spirit, it was a huge shock to them. They all flew fighter jets and knew very well what Li Zhan’s actions meant.
.This refreshed their impression of the Tattered King Master - although the equipment is old, he has a fighting will that is absolutely stronger than his opponents!
Stepping into the afterglow of the setting sun, he returned to the field station. Li Zhan ran back and forth to get the flight instructor team settled. He asked Han Bo, the deputy commander of the maintenance team, to come over and be responsible for the reception. He said to them, "Deputy commander Lin, I have training in the evening."
I can’t have dinner with you because of my mission.”
"Li Zhan, don't be polite to me. Go about your business. There will be plenty of time from now on." Lin Haodong returned the courtesy and patted Li Zhan on the shoulder.
Nie Jianfeng said to Li Zhan, "Everything is fine, I'll go and take a look with you."
"I'll go too." Tang Leile quickly put down his rolled up sleeves and tidied up his clothes.
Li Zhan smiled and said, "Okay, come and visit our night flight training. I don't fly, I'm in command from the tower."
The three brothers left together.
At the tower, after Li Zhan confirmed that all preparations were completed, Pei Lei also came over with a woven basket. There was a small lounge next to the command room, with a camp bed, a coffee table and a sofa. He took the lunch box from the woven basket
Take out the well-packed food and arrange it on the coffee table like a queue, then place the chopsticks corresponding to the seats, pick up the ceramic bowl and carefully serve the rice, use a rice spoon to flatten it carefully, and place it on the left side of the chopsticks.
After the preparations were completed, he checked the overall neatness again to ensure that there were neat lines and surfaces from any angle. Then he relaxed and quickly went to the control room of the tower to report to Li Zhan that the meal was ready.
The officers on duty eat and rest in the tower. The commander and deputy commander use this small lounge, and others use the large lounge diagonally opposite. Therefore, if some young and low-level officers are lucky enough to serve as deputy commanders or something,
When on duty at the tower, you can enjoy the same treatment as a group leader.
Li Zhan walked in with Nie Jianfeng and Tang Leilei, asked everyone to sit down, pointed at Pei Lei and said, "Xiao Pei, sit down too and let's eat together."
"Chief, I'll go to the cooking class to eat." Pei Lei said quickly.
It's already past meal time now, so if you want to eat, you can only join the cooking squad. The cooking squad usually eats after the support troops have eaten.
"Sit down and eat." Li Zhan said without any doubt.
Pei Lei stood at attention, "Yes!"
Only then did he understand why the captain had to let four people measure four sets of bowls and chopsticks when there were three of them. It would be a lie to say he wasn't impressed. Pei Lei, a honest and honest rural boy, wanted to shed his blood for Captain Li.
.
He picked up his rice bowl and started eating. Now was the time to say something personal.
"Old Nie, tell me what's going on. Why do you two have two hairs?" Li Zhan asked.
Nie Jianfeng swallowed the rice in his mouth and put down his rice bowl. He picked up the tea and took a sip. He said, "It has changed a lot. I will tell you slowly. Let me talk about Xiao Tang and me first. No one will know the day you leave. Wait.
When I learned about it, you had already arrived in Beiku. Later, I participated in the selection of the Flying Shark training team. Unfortunately, my brother was not selected. At this time, our group had already begun to modify the J-10. After I came back, I was also going to modify the J-10.
. The division headquarters issued an order and transferred several people from our fourth regiment to the sixth regiment. The sixth regiment refitted the J-11B, mainly because the number of fighters increased and there was a shortage of manpower. The few of us who added in were refitted.
Su Liangqi, the Sixth Regiment also left a squadron of two-seat Su Liangqi in relatively good condition, to deal with the transition from second-generation aircraft to third-generation aircraft before the J-11B two-seat aircraft entered service. Tang Leilei and I became these
The old guy’s driver.”
Nie Jianfeng participated in the selection of the Flying Shark training team and must have received modification training on Shen Hoy fighter aircraft. Therefore, it is not surprising that he became a Su-27 flight instructor in just a few months.
What is surprising is that Tang Leilei, in just one year, modified the J-7e into the Su-27, and also had the ability to be a flight instructor. This baby-faced man with two dimples who was in the army at the same time as Li Zhan
The air force lieutenant also seems to be very talented in flying.
Nie Jianfeng continued, "The Fourth Regiment has also undergone great changes. Commander Tang Guozheng was transferred, and Deputy Commander Yu Chenglin became the commander. With our old comrades, it only took half a year to defeat the J-10."
It was chewed down, and now it has formed combat effectiveness. The fifth regiment of Zhongbu Liuqiu was in the worst situation. They were equipped with several improved J-8s and took on part of the tactical reconnaissance mission, but after all, the second
There is a lot of difference between the replacement machine and the tie rod fee, so I feel resentful."
When he said the last sentence, he couldn't help but laugh, "Old Li, the legend of you, the little prince who pulls the lever, is still circulating in the Second Division. I heard that you also quickly made your name known here."
"No, no, don't you know who I am? If it was really about money, I would have applied to change my job and return to the local area to fly a passenger plane a year ago." Li Zhan waved his hand quickly.
Tang Leilei smiled and said, "Brother Yi, don't be so modest."
"Am I being modest? This is a grievance." Li Zhan said, quickly changing the subject, "After that, you will start the annihilation series."
Nie Jianfeng said solemnly, "Yes, the division has made it clear that heavy fighter aircraft will be the main focus in the future. After all, the area under the responsibility of the Second Division has three million square kilometers of maritime land, and heavy long-range fighter aircraft are the most suitable equipment.
"
He paused and glanced at Pei Lei.
Li Zhan said, "Don't worry, Xiao Pei did it to me. He is absolutely reliable in politics and has a strong sense of confidentiality."
"Old Li, let me tell you something." Nie Jianfeng said in a deep voice, "When I was participating in the selection of the Flying Sharks training team, I heard someone from HNA say that in a few years the Second Division will be equipped with Su Sanwu, which I used to
The fighter jet that I discussed with you represents the highest level of the third and a half generation of fighter jets. Didn’t the prototype participate in air shows everywhere in 2000? The vertical tail number is 711."
Li Zhan first frowned, then slapped his thigh, forgetting to put down his job, "Lonely Warrior! Are you sure? Do we really buy it? Are you sure you will be the first to equip the second division?"
"I heard that the contract was signed a long time ago, but the delay in delivery is because we have put forward a lot of improvement suggestions. Their avionics system is not as good as ours. I don't know what the situation is now." Nie Jianfeng said, "The people from HNA said
Hainan Airlines and our Air Force have a bloody battle, and their reasons are very good. The Haiba Division on Qiongdao is also very suitable for equipping the Su 35 in all aspects. But unfortunately, our Air Force still has the right to speak when it comes to the introduction of fighter aircraft.
The most important thing is that the leadership believes that the navy should focus on the carrier-based aircraft force."
Li Zhan shook his head and said, "The reason behind is the key point, but no matter how hard they fight, they can't compete with our Air Force. Even a piece of paper flying in the sky belongs to our Air Force, and HNA is no exception. What can they do with it?"
Let’s fight.”
After sighing for a few times, Li Zhan sighed and said, "It's good to focus on building troops. The J-11 and J-10 have just been modified. The above has arranged things for the next few years in advance. Hey, wait, let's say that.
, the fifth regiment has the best chance of driving Su Sanwu first."
Nie Jianfeng sighed and said, "Yes, it must be them. So there is resentment. It has been for several years. By the time Su Sanwu is in place, they will be the number one main force, and the rod fee will definitely be the highest."
When he got to the last sentence, he looked at Li Zhan meaningfully.
"If they had waited seven or eight years, they would probably regret that they had modified the J-11 as early as possible. Since they have put forward improvement requirements, they will not be able to engage in firefights in three or two years. With Mao Zi's way of life, they will try to trick them if they can.
, will not compromise easily." Li Zhan said with a smile, suddenly thinking of Nie Jianfeng's meaningful smile, he immediately said with disdain, "Why don't you talk about the lever fee, and if you don't have the lever fee, you won't train?"
"Haha." Nie Jianfeng smiled dryly.
"Yes, who was selected for the Flying Sharks training team?" Li Zhan asked.
Nie Jianfeng replied, "There is only one person in the second division, Zhang Xueyang."
Li Zhan frowned, "Is it really just him? Is he really so strict?"
"You want to ask Chen Fei? He also lost the election. He was eliminated in the last round. He could drive Shen Huoyi, and the division also planned to transfer him to the sixth regiment. Commander Tang was still there at the time, and he supported him.
I went back. It's not bad now. I was promoted to chief of staff of the regiment last month and has a bright future." Nie Jianfeng said, carefully observing the changes in Li Zhan's expression.
Li Zhan's transfer from the Second Division was directly related to Chen Fei, but except for Fang Chenghe, Qi Hong and Chen Fei himself, no one knew what happened inside. News from the division headquarters showed that Chen Fei left Qi Qi
Qi Hong immediately called Li Zhan to Hong's office and sent Li Zhan away early the next morning.
Nie Jianfeng sighed and said with a smile, "Chen Fei, he is different from us old brothers now. He knows how to do things well."
Waving his hand, Li Zhan said, "Don't talk about him. What is the situation of this Flying Shark training team? Is it so strict? Only one person from the dignified Second Division was selected?"
With a wry smile, Nie Jianfeng said, "It's just that I was selected. It is still unknown whether I will be included in the first carrier-based fighter unit. To put it bluntly, if you fail to pass any of the following steps, you will directly return to the original unit. There is no favor.
speak."
Li Zhan was stunned and seemed to be talking to himself, "So the Flying Shark Training Team represents the pinnacle level of our army's aviation force."
"There is no doubt." Nie Jianfeng said solemnly, "There are many pilots in the army, but only a dozen or so were selected in the end, and there will be a full elimination system. Do you know how many instructors there are? There is only one instructor. Assist the instructor.
Do you know how many personnel there are? There are more than 200 people, 70% of whom are technical experts. When I saw a bunch of colonels, senior colonels and a bunch of deputy military level and full military level experts, I was immediately dumbfounded. You know
?"
Nie Jianfeng seemed to have not been able to fully recover from the initial shock, and said with emotion, "You know what the instructor said to us first? This is a place to train pilots who can take off and land on the blade. On the blade
Take-off and landing, you can imagine what the concept is. Those of us who consider ourselves to be the best in each unit have only one feeling when we get there - we don't know how to fly a plane!"
"Is it an exaggeration?" Li Zhan was dubious, "No matter how small the aircraft carrier's flight deck is, it still has a take-off and landing distance of 200 meters. You were scared. That's what flying is like. Without strong self-confidence, nature will slaughter you.
."
"Huh, you're awesome. There will definitely be a second issue. Just sign up and give it a try. Talk to me again after you try it." Nie Jianfeng said angrily, picked up his rice bowl and continued eating.
Tang Leilei finally found a chance to speak and said, "Brother 1, the Flying Shark training is really strict. I heard that there are people who drive transport planes participating in the selection. Guess why? It's because everyone who should be selected in the fighter force is selected."
I checked again but there was really no one left.”
"I still don't believe it." Li Zhan snorted coldly.
For a fee of two thousand yuan an hour, you can see how hard I train!
