Chapter 710: The Deadly Helicopter
In fact, Zhang Tianyuan was simply scaring himself, it was completely unnecessary, with Yang Yaoshan's status and reputation, no one dared to check his salute.
Besides, because Yang Yaoshan was carrying the colorful phoenix jade, a few soldiers put down the tools in their hands and went to help Yang Yaoshan carry the jade, and no one paid attention to the backpack on the snake lin.
This jadeite, Yang Yaoshan takes it very seriously, although the thing is no longer his, but for him, this is still an excellent opportunity to create a zào classic, maybe there is no second person in this world who can have such a good opportunity as him, he must take it back and carve it carefully, and then send this thing to Zhang Tianyuan's hands in the most perfect form.
Even if his daughter is married, she has to dress up well.
"This helicopter is all antique, brother, you have to be careful, in case something happens later, when the helicopter has to make a forced landing, you must remember not to panic, as long as the plane does not fall directly, I have a way to keep you alive." After getting on the helicopter, Snake Lin and Zhang Tianyuan sat in the back, and said in a low voice.
"What kind of helicopter is this, you say it's so dangerous?" Zhang Tianyuan is not a military fan, so he really doesn't know much about helicopters or anything.
"This helicopter is the Mi-8, nicknamed the Hippopotamus by NATO, together with the Mi-17 series, it is the world's classic utility helicopter designed by the Soviet Miri Design Bureau, and it is also the world's largest helicopter, with more than 12,500 helicopters, and the number of production is still rising, known as the 'Kalashnikov' in the helicopter kingdom. Whether as a military helicopter or as a private jet for governors. She switches her roles with ease. This high-performance helicopter is definitely a classic in the history of aviation. Create a legend in the history of world aviation!"
"The Mi-8 is a medium-sized transport helicopter developed by the Miri Design Bureau of the former Soviet Union. It was developed by the Miri Moscow Helicopter-Building Joint Stock Company and produced by the Kazan Aircraft Mechanism Zuò Plant. It is a large helicopter with a twin-engine, five-blade single-rotor. In 1964, the Mi-8 military and civilian versions began production at the same time. In fact, if you count the performance when it was first produced. That's still absolutely mainstream, but the problem is that it's been a little too long, and the safety performance and other aspects are not so reliable......"
Snake Lin is naturally an expert in the military, when he was a soldier in the past, in addition to training on weekdays, he was on some military networks or read some military magazines, so it was like a treasure, helpless. The Burmese soldiers, who are like fart worms, made Snake Lin have to stop his words, and some things are said in front of these soldiers, which is definitely not appropriate.
Of course, even so, Zhang Tianyuan has already gotten a lot of information about this helicopter from the mouth of Serpentine.
Before the collapse of the Soviet Union, this huge hegemon stationed a fleet in Burmese seaports in order to facilitate a global hegemony with the United States, and later the Soviet Union collapsed. There was chaos in the country, and it was at that time that the famous king of war appeared.
It is conceivable that the Soviet Union was very busy buying equipment at home, not to mention the troops left abroad. As a result, some things have flowed into the pockets of the Burmese government and become a powerful weapon of the Burmese government army, that is, relying on these things. It was only by the Burmese government that the military junta was further strengthened, and Myanmar is not as chaotic as it used to be.
And the Mi-8 military helicopter. It was the precious legacy left by the Soviet army at that time.
The speed of a Mi-8 military direct transport lift like this is probably more than 300 kilometers per hour. It's not very fast, but it has the advantage of having a large fuel load, a longer range than a typical helicopter, and plenty of interior space.
The Mi-8 passenger cabin has 28 pairs of foldable seats, each row of seats spacing 72-75 cm, the middle aisle is 32 cm wide, and there is a locker room and luggage compartment. It can fit 23 seats without a wardrobe.
Yang Yaoshan and other people, there are a total of fourteen or fifteen, if you add the driver and co-pilot, that is, sixteen or seventeen, it is definitely more than enough to sit, of course, even if someone wants to sleep, they can directly lie down and sleep.
Of course, if you're not afraid of loud noises, that's absolutely no problem.
The most troublesome thing about the helicopter is the noise of the propeller, the huge roar, even if it is face-to-face, you have to shout at the top of your voice, Zhang Tianyuan is okay, after all, he has the earth's qi to protect himself, and the huge roar reaches his ears, and it becomes an ordinary sound.
As for Serlin, Yang Yaoshan and those soldiers, they all often fly in helicopters, so they are used to it, which makes Zhang Tianyuan wonder if everyone will suffer from tinnitus and deafness after being in such an environment for a long time?
Sometimes getting used to it isn't a good thing, and if you get used to it, it may be that you've been tormented to the point of numbness.
It's really hard, it's hard for Professor Qin, Professor Qin is relatively old, and it's the first time to take this kind of military transport helicopter, it's simply unbearable, and finally Zhang Tianyuan really can't stand it, so he secretly used his own ground qi to help Professor Qin, although he didn't dare to completely make Professor Qin comfortable, but let Professor Qin avoid being tortured, he could do it.
Zhang Tianyuan took a helicopter, this is only the second time, the last time I sat in the country was also a military helicopter, but that is much better than this, not only the sound insulation effect is good, and the hatch is also tight, unlike this helicopter, although it seems that there is no shortage of parts on the surface, but the sound insulation effect is very poor, what is even more outrageous is that it can be noticed that some places in the hatch are damaged because of damage, so they are blocked with ordinary iron plates, where is this to repair the aircraft, it is simply a waste of things.
But this is not to blame the Burmese government, they have no money to buy new helicopters, and they can't invite Russian military experts to come over and give repairers helicopters, so they can only mess around with their own hands.
When the plane was flying, he could hear the hatch "creaking", thinking of what Serlin said before, Zhang Tianyuan couldn't help but shudder, he was good. But the problem is that it can't fly, in case this plane really crashes. Then he is also a dead end.
Nervously, he grabbed his seat belt, closed his eyes, and began to pray for the gods.
"The Jade Emperor, God Jesus, Allah, Buddha. No matter which way the gods are, don't let this plane have an accident, I, Zhang Tianyuan, lived to be twenty-six years old, and I haven't married a wife and had children, so I can't just play it like this. ”
Man is inherently dead, or heavier than Mount Tai, or lighter than a feather.
In Zhang Tianyuan's view, being killed in vain is definitely a death that is lighter than a feather. Even worse than that.
Originally, Zhang Tianyuan planned to wait for the plane to fly and then discuss the matter of the Burmese army with Seren, and he was very interested in this army, which had a lot of heavy equipment collected from rags.
Thinking that after the plane flew up, the few people who were watching them would not be able to hear them, and they could completely whisper. But forget it now, if you really want the other party to hear you, you have to stretch your neck and shout at the top of your throat. Then where are you still whispering, you are simply exposing yourself.
There is one thing that Zhang Tianyuan is grateful for, that is, the climate in Myanmar is very warm, even when it is the coldest time in winter. It will not be lower than 15 degrees, and if it were in the north of the country, it would be estimated that there would be a helicopter leaking everywhere. If you go up, you're going to freeze into a popsicle.
No, maybe you can't even fly.
Since you can't chat. That Zhang Tianyuan could only be bored to see the scenery, after leaving the barracks. The scenery along the way is very beautiful, at first Zhang Tianyuan didn't pay much attention to it because he helped Professor Qin not to be too uncomfortable, and after the thing was done, he found that all the underground was a few meters tall, under the light of Yangon, it was really lush, compared to many bare mountain tops, it was really much stronger.
He had heard that the mining area was not so lucky, and that it used to be so lush, but recently most of the hills had been dug up and bare, leaving little left. It seems that this mining damage to the environment is not as simple as it is said, it will be very troublesome.
Although it is the dry season in Myanmar at present, because of the abundant water sources on the ground, those tall broad-leaved trees are not as leafy as the rainy season, but they look quite spiritual, but among these trees, you can rarely see human figures, but there are some wild animals that occasionally run by, sitting on helicopters, you can see.
The mountains are mostly desolate, but the closer you get to the mines, the more different the situation becomes, because there are a large number of workers mining jadeite.
Now this season, it happens to be the best season for Myanmar jadeite mining, you know, the most afraid of the mountains is rain, the dry season is less rain, naturally nothing. But once the rainy season comes, the situation is completely different, almost the entire mining area will be very difficult to walk, and there are often mudslides and landslides, and many people die in the mining area, which is why the busiest days in Myanmar are now.
The mountains of Myanmar are not particularly steep, but they are endless, mountain after peak, dense jungle, of course, with modern tools, even if you throw people from here, you can find the right way to escape, but the problem is, if you don't give you any modern equipment, then you are really bad, this hellish place, mountain after mountain, most of the environment is similar, you can easily get lost and go around in circles.
Not to mention a day or two, it is estimated that even if it is a year or two, don't think about it, and then you will starve to death in it.
Small countries and widows, coupled with the economic blockade of some countries, as well as long-term wars, make Myanmar's economic life very backward, such a place close to the seaport, the geographical location, if it is placed in China, it will definitely become a place of rapid economic development, but now, it is so poor, the pillar industry is actually luxury jadeite, and even its own mature jewelry industry is not there.
It is estimated that this is also related to the Su zhì of the Burmese themselves, why many Chinese people can do business successfully after the past, it is estimated that they still see more of the world, and the Burmese people believe in Buddhism too much, most people would rather send money to repair the pagoda, would rather go to the Buddha for help, than to do business in a down-to-earth manner, it is strange to get rich.
The people of the past in China naturally didn't care about this, so it was easier for them to get rich.
It took about an hour or so for the helicopter to slow down, and then found a very flat ground and stopped, and the wind from the propellers made the leaves fly. (To be continued......)
