The sunrise on July 14 was the sunrise in the east, and the cold of the dawn on the sunny morning quickly dissipated, and the earth soon woke up, and people began their day's work.

A Mi-171 helicopter sped over and stopped as close to the tower as possible under the command of the ground crew. Fang Chenghe dragged Qi Hong off the commuter car, and after seeing the helicopter, Qi Hong finally regained his sense of autonomy, shook off Fang Chenghe's hand and strode over and jumped into the passenger compartment.

All the dispatchers at the Dongkuchang Station boarded the plane, and some of them were carrying briefcases.

Fang Chenghe and Luohe City quickly boarded the plane, and the Mi-171 rose from the ground and galloped towards the Beikuchang Station, which was 500 kilometers away.

This is the helicopter sent by the director department to pick up the Dongku directing team, and the reason why it came so quickly is because they set off earlier than the mad demon brigade, which means that the director department and the Blue Army have long been making follow-up arrangements according to the results of the Red Army's defeat.

"Shameless......" Fang Chenghe noticed this detail and closed his eyes in pain.

Luo Hecheng's face turned blue for a while, and his teeth clenched and gurgle. It took only half an hour for the Blues to arrive at the directing office, and the directing staff had apparently been informed that they had already been informed, and it took them only ten minutes to survey the battlefield and make a decision......

Even a blind man can figure it out.

"Too much deception!" Luo Hecheng slapped his thigh hard, and he was furious.

He and his soldiers conducted repeated ground drills, deliberated on the combat plan many times, and even repeatedly confirmed the status of each fighter with the maintenance personnel. He was already ready to educate the 73rd Division in the best state, so that the poor brothers, who were once also old powerhouses, would continue to worship him to the end.

For this reason, he made a promise, and after defeating the mad demon brigade, he invited all the officers and soldiers of the regiment to a big meal, and was ready to spend two months' salary. However, he did not say what he would do if he failed, and he and none of the officers and men of the Sixth Regiment thought that they would fail.

Qi Hong, the commander of the first division, did not consider the possibility of defeat, and his troops naturally did not think that they would lose.

Perhaps it should be said that the arrogant and arrogant person is the second division, and the person who has no one in his eyes is Qi Hong.

The founders have long said that strategically despise the enemy, but tactically we must attach importance to the enemy. Didn't U.S. imperialism think that we were poorly equipped and arrogantly clamored to end the war before Christmas, and as a result, the best equipped army in the world was beaten all over the place.

The two-hour flight time was difficult, and Qi Hong couldn't wait to jump directly in front of the director's department and grab Vice Minister Liang's collar to lodge a strong protest. Luohe City was even more eager to tear that shameless person to pieces piece by piece!

The North Reservoir Station was jubilant, so the fighters who attacked all returned, and at this time they were gathering in the flight briefing room on the bottom of the tower to sum up their experience with a smile. Li Zhanrang moved the sand table in the war room to the briefing room, and it was all completed at this time.

The flight briefing room was large enough that the director decided to do a review here.

Many people feel unreal, they have never had such a drill, and the winner is divided within half an hour of the start of the game, and then the review is immediately carried out. It seems to be child's play, but in fact it is very close to the mode of modern warfare. The outstanding performance of the Mad Demon Brigade made some of the previous doubts disappear. Despite the cheating, the ability of the Mad Demon Brigade to penetrate defense at long distances and ultra-low altitudes is obvious to all.

The perfect dawn attack action made Li Zhan, the ground commander, no longer regret not being able to go to the sky. It was the first time he had tasted the sense of accomplishment of watching his students grow from a teacher's point of view.

Vice Minister Liang and Master Chen Hualin strode in, followed by the staff officers of the director's department. Vice Minister Liang was in a good mood and said to Li Zhan, "Li Zhan, when the people of the Second Division arrive, you will speak politely and take advantage of others to get angry." ”

Li Zhan replied, "Chief, I will definitely explain in a realistic manner, without any emotional color." ”

"Okay, I'm relieved if you say that."

Vice Minister Liang sat down in the seat marked with the word "chief" in the center, Chen Hualin sat down on his left hand side, Yang Heng sat down on Chen Hualin's left hand side, and the two positions on Vice Minister Liang's right hand side were empty, which was the position of Qi Hong and Fang Chenghe.

On either side were neatly arranged chairs, and the pilots of the Crazy Demon Brigade, station representatives, and directors were seated on both sides. Across the sand table and the leaders are the positions of the commanders of the red and blue sides, Li Zhan is already standing on the side of the blue army, and the side of the Red Army is still empty.

"Sit down." Vice Minister Liang said.

Xue Xiangdong, who was in charge of the on-site organization and command, gave the order, then walked to Li Zhan's side, and said in a low voice, "Vice Minister Liang doesn't seem to be going to give face to the Second Division, you don't want to be affected by the leader's attitude, and talk about you realistically." ”

Li Zhan nodded slightly and said with a smile, "I understand, they are my old chief after all." ”

"If only you understood." Seeing that the time was almost up, Xue Xiangdong hurriedly walked out.

It is impossible for Vice Minister Liang to greet Qi Hong and Fang Chenghe, Chen Hualin is sitting there steadily, and obviously he will not greet him, but Xue Xiangdong and Zheng Kaiyun can't sit still, they are landlords and must be in place.

When the Mi-171 landed, the dispatchers quickly lined up to board the car and rushed to the tower, Xue Xiangdong and Zheng Kaiyun hurriedly stepped forward to greet Qi Hong, but they were directly ignored, jumped in the car and left. Fang Chenghe shook his head helplessly, and returned the courtesy to Xue Xiangdong and Zheng Kaiyun, but he didn't want to say anything, so he got into the car and held his arms tightly and pursed his mouth.

Xue Xiangdong and Zheng Kaiyun knew that picking up people at this time was a chore, so they had already been mentally prepared, and their attitudes towards Qi Hong and Fang Chenghe were expected.

On the way to the tower, Luohecheng gritted his teeth and said to Xue Xiangdong, "Your seventy-third division is too shameless! If you don't greet and attack early, you will be treated as nothing! The behavior of the Blue Brigade is too despicable and indecent! ”

"Who are you scolding! Speak politely, don't spew feces all over your mouth! Believe it or not, Lao Tzu kicked you out of the car! Xue Xiangdong immediately exploded when he heard this, glaring at Luohe City and saying angrily.

Luohe City was taken aback by Xue Xiangdong's reaction, shouldn't he apologize with a humble smile, this script is not right!

Zheng Kaiyun couldn't help but laugh out loud, this young flight regiment commander is also unlucky enough, who is not good to recruit Xue Cannon, he is a person who even the division commander dares to directly attack, not to mention that you are a colonel, Xue Cannon is carrying four stars on his shoulders, a proper deputy division level, a member of the Standing Committee of the Division Party Committee, and a division leader!

"River City! Don't talk nonsense, how can anyone insult the fraternal troops like this. Fang Chenghe was very upset, reprimanded Luohe City, and secretly scolded in his heart, they are all pigs' heads, they are not loud with reason, and they can't engage in personal attacks with reason, and they are in someone else's territory, and they are also rushing to people with a higher level than themselves, isn't this a pig's brain?

Xue Xiangdong Zhengshi said to Fang Chenghe, "Political Commissar Fang, you can say anything dissatisfied, but you can't insult the troops, who is despicable and indecent, and the children of the people of the people's army of the 73rd Division of the Air Force of the Chinese People's Liberation Army are despicable and indecent?" ”

As soon as he heard this, Luo Hecheng was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, and he was so aggrieved in his heart, I mean that your Blue Army Brigade is shameless and despicable, not the 73rd Division!

Let Xue Xiangdong rise to the insulting attack of the veteran fighter pilot who came from the war, Luohe City's small body must not be responsible, and properly pit his division commander and political commissar.

"Head Xue, calm down." Fang Chenghe hurriedly played a round, if Xue Xiangdong was to make trouble in the director's department, the chief officer of the second division would not be able to run away in public.

Fang Chenghe glared at Luo Hecheng fiercely, squeezed out a smile, and said, "Captain Xue, our mood is not very good, and it can even be said that it is very bad, but Captain Luo's brain is also angry. You just don't take it to heart. ”

Xue Xiangdong glared at Luohe City coldly, and said to Chenghe, "Political Commissar Fang, you are Li Zhan's old leader, I won't pursue it this time, otherwise it will be a big trouble for the officers and soldiers of the whole division to know." Don't hit people in the face! ”

Luohe City roared in his heart: But you hit me in the face! You are crackling, turning left and right, and you are pumping Lao Tzu's face in a straight and negative way! Lao Tzu's 36 most advanced fighters in the whole Air Force! I'm the number one main regiment commander of the entire Air Force!

I didn't even have time to take off my pants before you rushed in.

No one cared about Luohe City's mood and thoughts, and then again, if he couldn't learn something from this blow, he, the regimental commander, would fail.

The group entered the flight briefing room, and as the two chief officers of the second division came in, the atmosphere became solemn, and the atmosphere gave people a chill below zero.

Qi Hong didn't sit down, but after glancing around, his eyes fell on Vice Minister Liang, and asked word by word, "Vice Minister Liang, I have the following doubts. First, why did the drill on the 15th be brought forward to today and the Second Division was not notified in advance? Second, why the Blues were able to arrive at our station five minutes after the exercise began. Thirdly, why did the exercises of free air combat not be carried out according to the established plan. Please give us an answer! ”

It is undeniable that this young Zhuang faction, who was directly promoted from the head of the HNA regiment to the political commissar of the division and then immediately after serving as the military chief of the famous Southern Batian, is very imposing, and he is also capable, and his questioning is also well-founded.

Vice Minister Liang pressed his hand and said, "Master Qi, don't be impatient, please sit down, all questions will be solved and answered, everyone can rest assured." ”

Seeing that Qi Hong and Fang Chenghe's eyes were looking at Li Zhan, who was sitting opposite, Chen Hualin sighed slightly and said in his heart, I'm afraid that this kid won't be able to hide, and he will still have to tear his face.

The initiator was Li Zhan, who else could answer Qi Hong's question. Even if Vice Minister Liang answered, Qi Hong was not necessarily convinced.

In the final analysis, if you want everyone to be convinced, you have to stand up for Li Zhan.

He has five first-class merits, is a member of the Air Force talent pool, is a top registered officer of the Air Force, is a member of the leading group and the specific executor of the "228" project, and is the promoter of the bold exploration of the exercise mode. The most important thing is that Li Zhan is only a flight captain at the deputy battalion level who enjoys the treatment of the main battalion level, and his position and rank are so small that all leaders will think that "young people must understand when they say the wrong thing and do the wrong thing."

It's all oil, as soon as Qi Hong and Fang Chenghe set their eyes on Li Zhan, whether it was Vice Minister Liang or Chen Hualin or Yang Heng, they all immediately realized that the two commanders of the Second Division had already figured out the key joints - only through Li Zhan could all parties leave leeway.

Those who can be the commanders of the second division are not fuel-efficient lamps!

You think he's out of anger, but he's actually very thoughtful and clear-minded.

Vice Minister Liang glanced at it and said loudly, "Comrades, the July 15 drill is over now. Let me announce the results first. The Blue Army launched a surprise attack on the Red Army airfield at dawn, and according to the results of the investigation at the scene, the runway of the Red Army airfield was destroyed, and 20 Red Army fighters were destroyed. The Blues won an absolute victory in this exercise, and no damage was inflicted. ”

That's the official verdict. Qi Hong and Fang Chenghe's faces suddenly darkened, and they even felt that the scene in front of them was shaking slightly. Such an outcome is too difficult to accept. If you have to fail, then this way of failure is the most humiliating.

"Comrade Li Zhan is the proposer of the plan for this new mode confrontation exercise, so let Li Zhan answer the three questions of Division Commander Qi."

All eyes fell on Li Zhan's face, and Luohe City, who was sitting a few meters away on his right hand, stared at him with murderous gaze.

Li Zhan stood up and saluted, and said, "Report to the chief, I don't have an answer." ”

The words were shocked, and even Vice Minister Liang and Chen Hualin were shocked, and they didn't know what medicine Li Zhan was selling in the gourd.

"Li Zhan, what do you mean!" Luohe City couldn't help it, and stood up abruptly and pointed at Li Zhan.

Li Zhan didn't squint, and he didn't even look at Luohe City.

Vice Minister Liang knocked on the table and said, "Head of Luohe City, it's Li Zhan's speaking time, please don't disturb it, sit down." ”

Luohe City sat down hatefully, furious.

"Li Zhan, say it realistically and objectively, don't bring personal emotions." Fang Chenghe still nodded vaguely at Li Zhan.

The old leader Li Zhan of the other party Chenghe still respected him very much, and at that time, under Qi Hong's anger, Fang Chenghe was still on his side to intercede for him, which showed that Fang Chenghe cared about him Li Zhan very well. On the other hand, because of the relationship between the master, Fang Chenghe is also one of the very few people who knows some secret circumstances of Li Zhan in the past.

Li Zhan won't give Qi Hong face, but he has to give Fang Chenghe's face.

"Old leader, I can guarantee that there is no personal emotion." Li Zhan looked at Qi Hong, "The three questions raised by Senior Commander Qi are all untenable, and I don't know how to answer them." The enemy will not tell you the time of the attack, will not tell you the configuration of the attacking force, and will not agree with you to divide the victory and defeat in a certain combat situation. ”

Xue Xiangdong scolded secretly in his heart, the stinky boy was really holding back his strength to breathe, yes, it is not a bad thing to make Nan Batian, the pride of the sky, embarrassed, at least the seventy-third division can stand up by stepping on Nan Batian's "corpse".

"If I'm not mistaken, the 6th Regiment of the 2nd Division was transferred to the first class first, and then transferred from Xixian Station to Dongkuchang Station to start stationing training, and there was no first-class transfer to second-class in the process. In other words, you have entered a state of war from the moment you take off from Xixian Station, and you must maintain first-level combat readiness! But in fact, the entire thirty-six fighters of the six regiments were even covered with canvas! ”

"Entering the Beiku area means entering the war zone, and it can even be said that you are actually transferring to the front line from Xixian Field Station. It is hard to imagine that in the front-line airfields, the troops are still in peacetime, and the fighters are covered with canvas. Originally, I planned to carry out a low-altitude penetration strike on the day you were stationed at the Dongkuchang Station, to inflict heavy damage on you when you were not able to settle down, and to end your expectations for the confrontation drill ahead of schedule. Later, after careful consideration, I thought that I should give my old unit the Second Division some time and some opportunities......"

"It's a pity ......"

Li Zhan looked so heavy that he hated iron but not steel, which made Qi Hong and Fang Chenghe want to whip him with the upper of their shoes. Chen Hualin and Xue Xiangdong's cheeks were shaking slightly, and they couldn't help but smile.

After sighing for a while, Li Zhan said bitterly, "I originally arranged for the air cover detachment, if the penetration goes well, those fighters can cover the return of the strike detachment, and if necessary, they can carry out supplementary bombing." Who knew that it would be so smooth, I could only let them come back early and forcibly stop the rest of the action. ”

After punching the other party half to death, he also said that he had retracted his eight success powers, otherwise this punch would kill you, which also made the people of all parties look wonderful.

"The director department sent a drill plan to the red and blue sides, and the troops on both sides followed the script step by step, and there were rules on what to do and what not to do at what time, and even which battle should be won by which side and which side lost. Chiefs, please ask yourself, can the troops trained in this way fight a war? Can you win the battle? Your second division blames me for not playing cards according to the routine and caught you off guard, isn't this vexatious? As the commander of the Blue Army, what I think about every day is how to kill your Red Army by surprise, I want to do it, and I will greet you and say that I am ready to kill you, ready? ”

"Chiefs, comrades, this is not how the soldiers are trained, and the troops are not trained this way. The people support us, our fighter planes, aviation fuel, our ammunition, everything we have comes from the people. If we use these precious resources to play with our own family and limit the improvement of the combat capability of our troops, then we are sinners! We shouldn't! ”

Li Zhan looked like he was in tears, and his words were serious, which made people want to slap his face.

He vigorously wiped away the tears that did not exist, and said in a deep voice with inferiority but not self-esteem, grievance but not sinking, today you look down on me, tomorrow I will wipe you out to the end, "It is true that the equipment of our 73rd Division is the most backward, because it has not been reequipped for decades, and the new equipment is all second-hand goods received from brother troops, and it has earned the nickname of the king of rags in the west. Yes, our equipment is rotten, but our tactical thinking is up-to-date, and we are at the forefront of the whole army. From 228 topics to 4-1 battles, these are our achievements! It is a typical example of using old equipment to train new combat effectiveness! ”

When he said the last sentence, Li Zhan's gaze fell on Qi Hong's face.

Qi Hong quickly remembered the day when Li Zhan went down to the army, he commanded in the tower, and the deputy division commander said that Li Zhan was a little resentful about not being able to fly the third-generation aircraft, and Qi Hong remembered clearly what he said at the time: Have the ability to fly the old model out of the new combat effectiveness.

Time has passed, Li Zhan has done it, which amazes everyone, but he has long had nothing to do with the Second Division.

Qi Hong sighed deeply in his heart, helpless to let the flowers fall.

"In the end, my conclusion is that this drill does not have a director's department, only a ruling team, and the mad demon brigade does not follow the script given by the director's department, and it is impossible for our enemies to follow our script in the future, and we will not follow the enemy's script. Destroying the enemy at all costs and preserving yourself is the only criterion. Division Commander Qi, Political Commissar Fang, you lost this battle unjustly, because we knocked out the script on your mind. ”

Li Zhan saluted the leaders and comrades.

He secretly said in his heart: Nine months! Nine months! Do you know how I've spent these nine months? Finally fought hard!
