Chapter 21 Reinforcements

Just when the first naval battle of the crossing fleet was in full swing, Hejiawan Village, the first landing site of the crossing fleet, was also very lively.

As dusk approached that afternoon, a deafening roar suddenly sounded in the sky of Hejiawan Village, which also caused the villagers, who had just stabilized from the plundering of the Russian army, to go out one after another and look up to see what was going on. But the result was that all the villagers were stunned, and a considerable number of people were so frightened that their legs weakened, and they fell to their knees with a "plop".

It turned out that there were four or five huge objects of strange shapes in the sky, with large heads and thin tails, some like dragonflies, but the wings did not flap up and down, but rotated rapidly like windmills, emitting a huge roar of "saucers", and the wind was blowing so strongly that it was almost impossible for people to stand. When the villagers saw this, they were naturally so frightened that some people even shouted, "The gods have descended to earth." Many people knelt on the ground, kowtowing more than once, and screaming "gods" and "Buddhas" in their mouths.

Fortunately, Luo Yue and the soldiers rushed out immediately, Luo Yue raised his hands and said loudly: "Folks, don't be afraid, this is not some immortal descending to earth, this is our helicopter, it is an airplane." ”

He Xin timidly approached Luo Yue's side and said, "Chief, this thing is called a flying chicken, is it a flying chicken?"

Luo Yue was sweating when he heard this, and said, "This is not a chicken, it's a machine, it's a flying machine, understand? It's the same as a steamer, a steamer uses a machine to sail on the sea, and a helicopter uses a machine to fly in the sky." ”

He Ming, the village chief, had seen some of the world, and he still understood the concept of machines, so he said: "Chief, have I heard of a machine, is it a machine made by the Tianjin Machinery Bureau? ”

Liu Tie said disdainfully on the side: "The machine made by Tianjin Machinery Bureau can be compared with our machine, even foreigners can't compare, have you ever heard that foreigners' machines can fly?"

He Ming hurriedly said: "That's nature, that's nature, the chiefs are all powerful and omnipotent, foreigners are naturally incomparable, at noon, didn't the Russian ghosts let the chiefs run away?"

At first, the brothers He Xin and He Ping called the soldiers according to the habits of this era, and the soldiers didn't care too much about the random calls of "military master" and "general master", but after arriving in Hejiawan Village, the villagers also called the soldiers like this. Although Luo Yue thought it was funny, his military rank was far from the level of "chief", but he did not correct it, after all, it sounded much more pleasant than "military master" and "chief master".

Knowing that the headquarters wanted to send additional troops to Hejiawan Village, but needed an area that could be used for helicopters to land, and in the entire village, only the threshing floor in Xicun could be suitable for helicopters to take off and land, so Luo Yue found the village chief He Ming and asked him to organize and arrange the villagers to empty the threshing floor so that the helicopter could land.

Although they don't know what the soldiers want to do in emptying the threshing floor, as long as it is the request of the soldiers, the villagers are still full of enthusiasm and work together to clean up the threshing floor in less than two hours. At this time, the helicopter also flew over Hejiawan Village.

In fact, the area of the threshing floor in Hejiawan Village is not large, the distance between horizontal and vertical is only more than 20 meters, a total of only about five or six hundred square meters, such site conditions, can only be taken off and landed by any helicopter, after all, Hejiawan Village does not rely on farming for a living, and there are only more than 100 households in the whole village, and there is no need for a large threshing floor at all.

The helicopter responsible for transporting reinforcements took off from the Changbaishan ship.

The Changbaishan ship belongs to the 071 type amphibious dock landing ship, in the time and space before the crossing, in addition to the aircraft carrier Liaoning, the largest tonnage of surface combat ships in the Chinese Navy, with a full load displacement of more than 20,000 tons, mainly used to carry out amphibious landing operations, can be used as the mother ship of the landing craft, in the rear section of the ship is a huge dock cabin, which can accommodate four medium-sized hovercraft to transport soldiers, infantry fighting vehicles, At the same time, a large flight deck is set up on the stern deck of the ship, which can take off and land two medium-sized helicopters at the same time, so it also has a certain vertical landing capability, and truly forms a visual amphibious landing combat capability.

In addition to the dock compartment, the armored vehicle storage compartment can carry up to about 50 infantry fighting vehicles and main battle tanks at the same time, and the hangar can accommodate four medium-sized helicopters, and can also carry about one reinforced battalion of infantry fighters and their required weapons and equipment.

In addition, the Type 071 amphibious dock landing ship is equipped with a medical rescue cabin and some spare living cabins, of which the medical rescue cabin is equipped with complete battlefield rescue facilities, which can provide emergency surgery and field rescue capabilities for the wounded and sick on the ship. Therefore, it can not only carry out amphibious landing operations in wartime, but also serve as an effective transportation and projection platform for participating in international joint overseas peacekeeping and humanitarian relief operations in peacetime.

This time to participate in the evacuation operation, the demand for landing operations is not great, so the dock of the Changbaishan ship only carried two hovercraft, and also brought two 98G high-speed patrol boats, but the helicopters were fully loaded, and the Marine Corps dispatched also included an amphibious combat vehicle battalion, plus the configuration of combat vehicles of other units, a total of about 50 combat vehicles of various types. At the same time, dozens of experienced military doctors and nurses, as well as a large number of medical equipment and various medicines, have been selected from the military hospital, which can meet the standards of a first-class A hospital and ensure the safety of the evacuees on the way back.

After receiving the order from the headquarters, the troops who reinforced the landing troops were assembled on the Changbaishan ship, and the Huaihua ship escorted them until they reached the sea area about 10 kilometers away from Hejiawan Village, and then the Zhi-8F helicopter carried by the Changbaishan ship transported the reinforcements and assembly ashore.

Z-8F is the latest improvement of the Z-8 medium-sized helicopter imitated by China in the 90s of the 20th century based on the French Super Wasp helicopter, and the improvements are mainly focused on: improving the lift system, replacing the metal rotor and tail rotor with advanced composite rotors and tail rotors, replacing engines with better performance, comprehensively improving the performance of the aircraft, and updating the on-board electronic equipment. The performance of the Z-8F, its reliability, economy and maneuverability have been significantly improved, and it has a wide range of uses in the military and civilian fields, and with the Z-8F as the basic carrier, other models such as early warning type and anti-submarine type have been developed.

Although in the old time and space, the helicopter, which is a medium and large helicopter, is a project with a large gap between China and the world's advanced level, but the Z-8F can still be regarded as a successful medium-sized helicopter, and it is also the helicopter with the strongest carrying capacity in China. The maximum take-off weight can reach 14 tons, the maximum carrying capacity inside the aircraft is 4 tons, and the maximum lifting load outside the aircraft is 5 tons.

At this time, one Z-8F had flown over the threshing floor and was slowly landing, while the other three Z-8Fs were hovering in the air nearby, waiting to land in turn. As the four helicopters were flying at low altitudes, the huge propellers made a deafening roar, and at the same time brought out a fierce hurricane, and although Luo Yue repeatedly comforted the villagers and told them not to be afraid, except for a few brave villagers, the vast majority of them hid back at home, but there were still many people lying on the windowsill and peeking through the cracks of the doors, in addition to fear, there were also some curiosity.

The helicopter landed on the threshing floor, and the onlookers let out a burst of exclamation, and they all involuntarily seemed to take several steps back. Before the helicopter's landing gear could fully hit the ground, the hatch at the tail of the helicopter opened, and I saw a team of fully armed fighters coming down from the helicopter, and several fighters were carrying boxes, packages, and other things.

Luo Yue immediately greeted him, saluted the leader of the leader, and said, "I am Luo Yue, the platoon commander of the third company of the second marine battalion of the first brigade of the Marine Corps, and I am ordered to be stationed here. ”

The soldier also returned a military salute and said, "Platoon Commander Luo, I am Qiu Yahui, the commander of the first company of the First Marine Battalion of the First Brigade, and I am ordered by the headquarters to lead the troops to reinforce Hejiawan Village and take over the command of Hejiawan Village. ”

Luo Yue saluted again and said, "Company Commander Qiu, please instruct." ”

Qiu Yahui nodded and said, "Platoon Commander Luo has already fought with the Russian army here, and he is familiar with the environment and terrain in this area, we have just arrived, so we still need strong assistance from Platoon Commander Luo." ”

Luo Yue said: "Company Commander Qiu is too polite, we are all our own army, and we should help each other." ”

Qiu Yahui smiled and said, "Okay, after everyone arrives, let's have another meeting to discuss how to arrange the defense plan of Hejiawan Village." ”

In fact, the first helicopter did not carry many soldiers, it was a company of companies and equipment, and there was also a medical team and some medical equipment and medicines at random. The medical team consists of seven people, all medical personnel from the Changbai Mountain ship, five men and two women, although the number of medical teams is not large, but the equipment brought is a lot, in addition to the commonly used medical equipment and medicines, there are also two simple operating beds and a small Xiaoice cabinet, completely according to a small field hospital configuration.

If the Eight-Nation Coalition Army stationed in Dagu sends troops to attack Hejiawan Village, then the landing force will be stationed in Hejiawan Village to contain the strength of the coalition forces, and if the coalition forces do not attack, the landing force will send troops to Dagukou to cooperate with the large forces in the battle, attacking from the back of Dagukou and attacking from both sides, so medical support is naturally indispensable. Moreover, at present, the various resources of the crossing fleet are still relatively abundant, and they can also provide relatively sufficient logistical support for the troops.
