In the evening, a large number of transfer trainings that had been prepared for several months came to a successful conclusion. The fourth regiment left six J-7E, and the rest were transferred to eastern Guangdong for training led by regiment commander He Guozheng. Twelve SU-27s of the Sixth Regiment were transferred from Guibei to the main field for training, and were led by the deputy division commander stationed in Guibei.

The Second Division implements a rotation training system of three regiments, with three major airfields as the basic venues, and three regiments are stationed separately and rotated internally for a period of one year. In other words, the training unit composed of 16 J-7Es led by He Guozheng will stay in eastern Guangdong for a whole year.

Qi Hong's nerves are tight, and it is very important to cross the Spring Festival in the next month.

Someone knocked on the door, Qi Hong raised his eyes and looked over, and immediately stood up, "Division commander." ”

Zhang Sihai looked like an old man, a little hunchbacked, his head was also a little gray, his face was wrinkled, he was wearing a 07-style camouflage training uniform that was washed a little white, walked in with his hands behind his back, and smiled very kindly, "Young people are in good spirits, and when I am like you, I also like to work overtime." ”

Qi Hong hurriedly walked over from behind the desk, "Teacher, please take a seat." You are only 50 this year, and according to the relevant documents of the Supreme High Command, you are still in the scope of middle-aged and young cadres. ”

He hurried to pour the tea.

Zhang Sihai sat down on the sofa, his sitting posture was both upright and natural, which was obviously one of the habitual postures formed during his military career.

"When I got older, I realized that if I paid more attention when I was young, I wouldn't be so struggling now. He said that the body is the capital of the revolution. Jokes about one's own body, neither the party nor the people will agree. Zhang Sihai smiled and waved his hand, took the teacup handed over by Qi Hong, and motioned for him to sit down.

Qi Hong smiled and said, "Commander, you are old and strong, and many young men are not as good as you." No, I flew up for two hours today, and you acted like nobody. ”

Hehe, waving his hand, Zhang Sihai said, "It's not okay to be old if you don't accept it." ”

Does the division commissar need such a low profile towards the division commander? Military and political chiefs are at the same level, and political commissars can be half of the family, and they are equal.

However, this provision does not apply to the Second Division.

It is not surprising that division commanders of aviation units fly in the sky, and there are clearly stipulated that military and political commanders of flight units below the division level and below the division level are required to fly a fixed number of hours each year.

Zhang Sihai may be the oldest and most qualified fighter division commander in the Air Force Aviation Unit. If he hadn't been the division commander, he would have been grounded a long time ago. In fact, it is a special case that he can fly in the sky.

Qi Hongduo is a proud person, he is a star in the HNA, and he is also a star in the Air Force, and he is a cadre that the superior leaders should focus on cultivating. He may not be so respectful in the face of the chief of staff of the army, but the chief of staff of the army has to shout Master when he sees Zhang Sihai.

Zhang Sihai was initially engaged in aircraft maintenance, but later he was selected as a pilot, and then after graduating from the aviation school, he stayed in the school as an instructor and worked until the main regiment before he was transferred to the aviation unit. The regiment worked in the main division for 15 years, and worked in the position of commander of the second division for five years.

"Are you worried about Yu Chenglin's landline?" Zhang Sihai asked with a smile.

Qi Hong didn't dare to hide anything, and nodded slightly with a wry smile, "Yes, division commander." The engine almost stopped in the air, and if it didn't work, the plane would be destroyed and people would die. Thanks to Chenglin's rich experience, the main oil supply system was cut off in time and the backup oil supply was activated. ”

Zhang Sihai smiled, spoke without hurry, and asked, "Xiao Qi, what do you think of the relationship between actual combat training and training safety?" ”

This is not a new topic of discussion, but a contradiction that you have been arguing with for decades.

Qi Hong was silent because he had no novel point of view. Training and security has always been the most controversial topic in the annual work of the troops, and it is also one of the difficult problems that no unit has been able to solve perfectly for so many years.

Zhang Sihai said, "There may be any problems with the plane in the sky, as long as it is in the sky, any possibility exists." Can we go to heaven less because we are afraid of problems? Obviously not, how to train and how to train. No one can completely avoid accidents, more stringent ground support, more skilled pilots, this is the point. ”

Qi Hong lowered his head, "Senior Commander, I did have the idea of reducing the amount of training, let you see it." ”

"I'm about to retreat, the second division is going to be handed over to you. As a chief, you have to be able to withstand the pressure first. Zhang Sihai said earnestly, "You may also be worried about the honor of the advanced division of military training. This is even less necessary. If this evaluation criterion is based on flight safety, such an honor should not be required. That's what I said. ”

Qi Hong looked up at Zhang Sihai.

There is no doubt that this teacher is a very courageous person. The nickname of "Nanbatian" was given by Zhang Sihai by his brother troops after he served as the commander of the Second Division. The evaluation from the "opponent" is obviously more objective and true.

Zhang Sihai smiled and said, "We are not civil aviation pilots, and the army is not an airline. We are going to fight, and we are going to pay casualties. Do you understand? ”

Qi Hong nodded his head, "Commander, I understand." ”

Nodding, Zhang Sihai said, "I heard that a new comrade went up today, I read the flight log, a very courageous young man, dare to rush and fight, the second division wants such soldiers." ”

"He, I've made Liu's madman miserable." Qi Hong shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I learned from the military region that that kid is in the air force talent pool. In order to dig him up, I found a lot of leaders. Later, I learned that Madman Liu was his master, so I said that I was allowed to go out for a seafood dinner, and he finally relented. That's when the person was successfully picked up. As a result, it gave me a dismount on the first day. I regret it. ”

It's a talent, but it's a talent that is difficult to control, so it's better not to.

Zhang Sihai smiled and said, "When the Su Erqi was modified, a few pilots thought that it was not as good as the Jian-Qi. Why, because I can't control it. This is not the case, and the gap between the second- and third-generation aircraft is huge, and it is a change that subverts the air combat system. The same is true for pilots, the more uncontrollable they are, the more they have to work hard to tame. By the time you're like a command, you'll have a commander under your command. ”

The division commander would not say such things to the political commissar, only the seniors would teach the juniors like this.

Qi Hong was grateful in his heart and said solemnly, "Commander, I understand. You are right, there are no bad soldiers, only cadres who do not work hard. To be honest, I was already thinking about sending him back. I had a gut feeling that that soldier was going to be in big trouble sooner or later. ”

He was not exaggerating at all.

Since the founding of the Air Force, not to mention the fact that pilots who dare to perform such dangerous maneuvers on the first air situation mission can probably be counted with one pair of hands. In Qi Hong's opinion, Li Zhan is capable, and he is very capable, but he is a fierce horse! If you don't do it, you will hurt the second division.

In other words, if Zhang Sihai hadn't said this today, there would have only been one result waiting for Li Zhan - if he was transferred to other places, he would definitely be able to fly, but he would definitely not be able to stay in the Second Division.

Nie Jianfeng answered Yu Chenglin's call and hurriedly walked towards Li Zhan's dormitory.

The door was wide open, and Li Zhan was writing something on the desk, facing the window. Nie Jianfeng knocked lightly on the door and said with a smile, "Busy?" ”

Li Zhan hurriedly stood up and saluted, "Yes!" Hello Chief! ”

Waving his hand, Nie Jianfeng returned the salute, pointed to his rank of captain, and said, "I'm not the chief." Meet me, my name is Nie Jianfeng, the squadron leader of the seventh squadron. From now on, we will be comrades-in-arms. ”

"Report Captain! Li Zhan reports! Li Zhan straightened his waist and said.

Nie Jianfeng smiled and said, "Li Zhan, relax." You and I are both captains, so we don't need to be polite. Ask me for a cup of tea? ”

Li Zhan's classmates at the same time were all lieutenants, and he was the only one who was a captain. Because he not only made two third-class merits, but also entered the air force talent pool and was exceptionally promoted to captain.

"I'm sorry." Li Zhan came back to his senses and said, "Squadron leader, please come in, but I only have bags of tea here." ”

"No problem." Nie Jianfeng walked in, looked at the bedroom, and nodded slightly, "Yes, the new Fei can live in the suite, you have been alone in the past few years, and the regiment has attached great importance to you." Plus, you did a great job today! ”

Li Zhan made tea and brought it over, invited Nie Jianfeng to sit down, and said with a wry smile, "I've been scolded, and the political commissar seems to be dissatisfied with me." ”

Waving his hand, Nie Jianfeng comforted, "Don't care, the new political commissar is very good, and he loves talents very much, you will know in the future." You sit. ”

After Li Zhan sat down, Nie Jianfeng continued, "I graduated two years earlier than you, and I am the squadron leader appointed in the middle of this year. As you can see today, you are unlucky, the division is carrying out a large number of transfer training, and the most important drill of the year is being held. When it comes to the year-end summary, the leaders are very busy. The political commissar of the regiment leader led the team to the eastern part of Guangdong for training, and the deputy political commissar was busy summarizing the work, Yu Chenglin, the deputy head of the regiment, you have seen it, there was a problem with his landline, and he was staring at the maintenance depot at this time. He called me and asked my delegation to welcome you......"

Speaking of this, he was a little embarrassed, spread his hands and said, "There should have been a welcome ceremony, and the head of the regiment and the political commissar will participate." But you've done it all, you're the last to arrive, and you're in for important training. ”

Li Zhan hurriedly said, "It's okay, I'm just a soldier." ”

said so, but Li Zhan felt much more comfortable. It's not that the second division doesn't pay attention to him, but it happens to be the busiest time, and the chiefs are not available. In his busy schedule, he did not forget to ask the squadron leader to come over to explain the situation, which was already enough to give him face as a "rookie".

"Li Zhan, I heard that you are a member of the Air Force talent pool?" Nie Jianfeng asked curiously.

Li Zhan nodded, "Yes." ”

Nie Jianfeng took a deep breath and gave a thumbs up, "Brother, you are this." Entering the Air Force talent pool as a cadet, it is said that there are only a few over the years. ”

He did not hide his envy and admiration at all, which gave Li Zhan a good impression. This squadron leader is a straightforward person, he has no pretensions, and he is very comfortable to get along with.

"We'll be a squadron from now on. It just so happens that my long plane, oh, is the former squadron leader, he has changed careers, and the 037 you flew is his landline. You will be my wingman in the future, what do you think? Nie Jianfeng asked.

Li Zhan agreed, "No problem!" ”

The two shook hands.
