Chapter 628: Arriving in Stone City
After staying in the training camp for a few days and explaining the matter, Jiang Chen took the cadres and relevant personnel of the flight squadron and flew towards Shicheng on the Peregrine Falcon No. 2. The time of this mission was too urgent, so Jiang Chen could only seize every minute and use the Peregrine Falcon No. 2 as a special plane. On the other hand, he was really not used to taking the train at this time, so he took a plane.
This time with Jiang Chen is the squadron leader and instructor of the flight squadron, the squadron leader is called Feng Jianguo, who is six years old Chinese New Year's Eve this year, and he happened to be born in the year of the founding of the People's Republic of China, so he has the name Jianguo. The father of the family is also an old pilot, and he can be regarded as the first batch of pilots after the founding of the People's Republic of China, and participated in the War to Resist Laos and Aid the Peninsula. Feng Jianguo has been determined to become a pilot since he was a child, and when he grew up, he became a pilot as he wished, but he was not a fighter pilot like his father, but he piloted a transport plane to take on transportation work. When Jiang Chen and the others formed a flying squadron before, they saw that he was good, so they asked him over. Now he has become the squadron leader of the flight squadron, the deputy battalion commander treatment, and is also a member of the special operations brigade organization standing committee. This time he was called over to familiarize him with his subordinates, although these pilots this time were all flying helicopters, but they were all flying squadrons in the brigade. In addition, they were all relatively young, so Jiang Chen asked him to take charge of this work. And Jiang Chen is just a direction to guide and control, and he is still responsible for specific things. After all, people are insiders, Jiang Chen is a layman, laymen don't command insiders, this is the rule.
The instructor of the flight squadron is called Zhang Yiping, 29 years old this year, and is a political cadre of the Air Force. After graduating from the military academy, he has been working at the grassroots level of the Air Force. When the brigade was formed, others recommended him to Jiang Chen, and Jiang Chen accepted it. Unexpectedly, this person's performance in the later work was not bad, and Jiang Chen and Lei Jun were also quite satisfied. At this time, I saw him say to Jiang Chen: "Captain, don't we have a transport plane, why do we still spend so much foreign exchange to buy a helicopter from other people's old beauty." ”
Hehe, Jiang Chen smiled slightly and said: "It's different, these two look different, the performance is different, and the role is not the same." Of course, the combat missions it undertakes are also different. The outstanding feature of the helicopter is that it can do low-altitude, ultra-low-altitude or even only a few meters above the ground, low-speed and hovering and the nose direction is unchanged, which is not possible for fixed-wing aircraft. In particular, it can take off and land vertically in a small area, which makes it have a broad use and development prospect because of these characteristics. In the military aspect, it has been widely used in ground attack, airborne landing, weapons delivery, logistics support, battlefield rescue, reconnaissance and patrol, command and control, communication and liaison, anti-submarine mine clearance, electronic countermeasures, etc. There are also many applications in civil use, such as short-distance transportation, medical rescue, disaster relief and life-saving, emergency rescue, hoisting equipment, geological exploration, forest protection and fire fighting, aerial photography, personnel and material transportation between offshore oil wells and bases, etc., helicopters have great advantages. For our special operations, it is more versatile. For example, if we equip it, when the time comes, our team members on the front line will not work so hard, the success rate of the mission will be greatly improved, and the casualty rate will be greatly reduced. Moreover, the six flights we received this time are very suitable for flying in the mountainous areas of the plateau, and they are of great use to our operations on the front line. Of course, it has also greatly improved the combat effectiveness of our brigade, which is equivalent to inserting a pair of wings into our brigade, so that our brigade can be more flexible in carrying out rapid maneuvers in medium and long distances, so as to better complete various tasks. ”
Looking at the depressed and worried faces of some people, Jiang Chen said with a smile: "Of course, there are also its shortcomings. For example, our plane is incomparable to a helicopter, and even our plane can hit the helicopter we received this time into the stomach and then transport it away. Moreover, this helicopter is only suitable for small-scale delivery of process and medium-range distances, such as large-scale delivery of medium- and long-range distances, which can only be completed by our transport aircraft. ”
Hearing Jiang Chen say this, everyone was relieved all of a sudden, it turned out that each had its own characteristics and its own use, and it was not what they wanted to replace it. This cannot be blamed for their overthinking, the recent disarmament moves are getting bigger and bigger, and the whole army is talking about things and paying attention to things. At this time, they were suddenly asked to receive the newly purchased helicopter, which made them somewhat worried. After all, before, they were streamlined from the Air Force, and if the special operations team no longer wanted them, then they would have to choose to be demobilized and redeployed.
At this time, Feng Jianguo said to Jiang Chen: "Captain, this, I don't know anything about helicopters, I'm afraid I won't be able to do this job." ”
Hehe, looking at Feng Jianguo's worried expression, Jiang Chen smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, it's no different from our plane." Most of them are the same, and you can see what's going on when you look at it. Besides, it's not for you to fly, what are you afraid of. You just need to do a good job of managing it, and the helicopter squadron will take care of the specific work. ”
"I see. Although Feng Jianguo was still a little worried, he still nodded in response.
"Yes. Jiang Chen smiled and then stopped talking.
It didn't take long for the plane to land smoothly at a military airport in Shicheng. They were picked up by an officer from the Political Department of the Southeast Theater, surnamed Fang, Jiang Chen, who was responsible for coordinating and arranging their affairs in Shicheng. Under his arrangement, Jiang Chen and the others drove to a military district guest house in Shicheng to meet the pilots and ground staff who had arrived in front.
After Jiang Chen and Jiang Chen arrived here and made proper arrangements, this party officer left. And Jiang Chen looked at these people and looked at everyone, knowing that everyone is not familiar with it in modern times, it seems that there has to be a meeting to let everyone get to know each other. Thinking of this, Jiang Chen asked people to go to the guest house to negotiate and arrange, and then said to everyone: "Okay, let's find a conference room for a meeting first, let's get to know each other, and then there are still some things that need to be arranged." ”
Under the leadership of the staff of the guest house, Jiang Chen and the others came to the conference room of the guest house and sat down. Of course, Jiang Chen was the leader, so he should sit in the first place, and then said to everyone: "Okay, let's make an introduction first, starting with me." My name is Jiang Chen, and I am the deputy captain of the special operations team, and I am responsible for the main reception matters this time. Sitting on my left are Comrade Feng Jianguo, squadron leader of our flight squadron, and Comrade Zhang Yiping, instructor. And the second is 、、、、、、"
After introducing these people, Jiang Chen said to these pilots now: "Okay, I'll roughly introduce it here, so now, it's your turn." ”
"Report, Zhang Shiren, acting captain of the helicopter flight team of the special operations team. ”
"Report, Cheng Hongbing, acting deputy captain of the helicopter flight team of the special operations team. ”
"Report, Zhu Jian, pilot of the helicopter flight team of the special operations group. ”
