"After our tactical missile saturation attack, the naval force and air force units will attack at the same time to compete for sea supremacy and air supremacy, and the premise of the campaign is that I only need to obtain air supremacy and sea supremacy within a radius of 500 kilometers, and the troops behind me can launch a large-scale operation to cross the sea and land the island. Civilian ships were converted into fireboats, and the army's heavy artillery could fire from the ships to the island and provide fire cover for the landing force. These maneuvers must be completed within twenty-four hours, which is enough to catch them by surprise! ”

"Aren't you old-fashioned? What is the difference with the tactics of the seventies and eighties? If you want me to say, the use of a large number of airborne troops to directly open up the battlefield in the depth of the enemy's army, and after fully mobilizing the enemy's troops, and then use the landing force to cross the sea and land on the island, the efficiency ratio is even higher! ”

"Tall fart, you know a fart! The casualty rate of the most successful airborne operations in history has exceeded 30 percent! You don't take the life of a soldier seriously! According to my tactics, first use saturation firepower to destroy the vast majority of the enemy's fixed military installation fire positions, and hit their radar stations, airfields, and ports. The main offensive must rely on the landing force to advance steadily and steadily! Airborne operations are only suitable for small-scale special operations! Your massive use of airborne troops will cause unnecessary losses! Is this called an efficient cost-effective ratio? ”

The old men of the two factions who held opposite views quarreled with red ears and red ears, and began to show their qualifications after arguing, saying that I led the troops to fight in the war back then, and that slapped the table and said that I was doing synthetic and chemical exercises back then, and it became a mess.

Zhang Haiyang really can't stand it, in his opinion, the tactics of these old men are old-fashioned, and his own teeth have been lost, and the leaders of HNA are watching, which really makes people blush.

He didn't care about it this time, and hurriedly went up and grabbed his father's arm, and Zhang Lao turned around sharply and was about to reprimand, but when he saw that it was his son, his face softened, "Why are you back, don't go to class?" ”

Zhang Haiyang said in a low voice, "Dad, let's let go of this kind of big battle across the sea and land in advance, the leader of the army has come to visit the family, you hurry up and go home with me to deal with my little things first." ”

"Home visits? What is the home visit? I've said it a hundred times, you are not allowed to be a soldier! Zhang Lao's face changed, and he said loudly.

Now the war room was quiet, and only then did I notice that there were a few more active duty officers.

Li Zhan had to step forward and salute the old military leaders, with a respectful attitude, where is the breeze of the little prince of the lever, here he is his grandchildren.

It took more than an hour for Li Zhan to cope with the interrogation conversations of those old leaders and cadres, and his forehead was sweating on a very cold day. Then he followed the pale-faced Zhang Lao out of the old cadre activity center, oh no, it was the front-line command post.

Li Zhan wondered, why did this old man oppose his son becoming a soldier so much, and looking at the meaning of other old cadres just now, it seems that he is not very enthusiastic about letting future generations become soldiers. That's not quite right.

Deliberately a few steps behind, Li Zhan whispered his doubts to Liu Yang, and Liu Yang explained in a low voice, "Most of the people living in this cadre retreat are old leaders and cadres who have participated in the war. If you experienced life and death on the battlefield and faced the cruelty of war, would you let your descendants become soldiers? ”

Li Zhan was stunned for a long time, and then sighed, "Maybe not, maybe it will." ”

"Actually, this is not the only reason, but also because people are old, they don't care much about their children, and they can engage in whichever industry they want. Of course, there are also some old leaders and cadres who have arranged their children's roads early and thrown them into the army, and this is the end of their lives. Liu Yang said.

Li Zhan still can't comprehend the thoughts in it, maybe when he reaches the same age, he will have the corresponding understanding.

When he arrived at Zhang Haiyang's house, Li Zhan finally met a good face, and Zhang Haiyang's mother, Aunt Zhou, was very polite, busy preparing fruits and something.

Aunt Zhou is not young anymore, she was thirty-five years old when she gave birth to Zhang Haiyang, a proper advanced maternal age. Before retirement, he worked in the Navy's communications unit, and he was an old communicator. Because of her profession, Aunt Zhou's speech gives people the feeling of being an announcer, and her words are full of emotion and very clear. On the other hand, Zhang Lao's speech has a smell of hurricanes at sea, whirring, which makes people feel daunted.

Li Zhan knew that this home visit was not easy to handle, and the parents' original rank was higher than that of their army commanders, so I am afraid that they would not be able to talk about it normally. He decided to conduct a tactical home visit.

"Hello Mr. Zhang, I am Li Zhan, the chief instructor of the Flying Shark Unit, and this is Comrade Pei Lei, a non-commissioned officer of our organ guard." Li Zhan introduced himself as he reported to work.

Zhang Lao lit a cigarette and pointed to the Chinese on the coffee table, Li Zhan shook his head with a smile, "We don't smoke." ”

"Such a young chief teacher, what level is the chief teacher, you look like a clerical person, let me see your ID." Zhang Lao stretched out his hand unceremoniously.

Aunt Zhou came with the fruit and glared at Zhang Lao, "Lao Zhang, what are you doing, comrades in the army, what do you do with people's documents." ”

Li Zhan hurriedly took out his documents and handed them over with both hands, "It's no problem for the old leader to see the documents, I'm just a little soldier in front of the old leader, hehe." ”

Zhang put on his reading glasses, looked at the documents seriously, and glanced at Li Zhan a few times, and suddenly asked, "You turned out to be from the Air Force?" ”

"Yes, you see it?" Li Zhan replied.

Zhang Lao returned the certificate to Li Zhan, "I heard that the Air Force has a super trump card, and it damaged many ships and planes during military exchanges in France, is it you?" ”

"It's me." Li Zhan said with a smile, "But at that time, I was already transferred to HNA Flying Shark, and I was a member of our navy." ”

Zhang Lao's face suddenly softened a lot, and he became interested, "Tell me how you did it?" ”

Li Zhan recounted the process, and then said with some embarrassment, "They think that my flight is unprofessional and unsafe, but the final investigation results are obvious, my operation is standardized, and it is in line with international standards." As a result of such an accident, it can only be said that their safety awareness is not strong enough, and there are also problems in communication. ”

"Well, you're right." Zhang Lao gave a thumbs up, with a light in his eyes, "I haven't beaten the Americans against the Vietnamese devils, you kid is good, and he breathed a sigh of relief for our generation." ”

Li Zhan smiled embarrassedly and said, "It's not just the Americans, the Indians and the Japanese, they all lost, I'm not targeting one of them, friendly confrontation, friendship first and second, just that their pilot skills are really scum." ”

"Hahaha!" Zhang Lao's appearance of "Longyan Dayue", if he has a long beard, he is estimated to brush his beard and look up to the sky and laugh.

Li Zhan was immediately happy, and felt that he had persuaded Zhang Lao to have hope.

As a result, Zhang's old words changed sharply and said, "However, I won't let my son become a soldier, let alone a pilot of Hainan Airlines!" Resolutely no! ”

One sentence blocked the road, and in an instant, Zhang Haiyang's heart died, and Li Zhan's heart was about to die.

But Li Zhan is not a person who gives up easily, and he will not be completely disappointed until the last moment. Just as he didn't want to watch Lin Xiaoyu, a good seedling, fly thousands of miles away and come over for the second political trial. He said to Cheng Da and others: "Whether it works depends on his future ability, but whether to give him a chance is only between our thoughts." Admittedly, we can ignore it, regardless of whether he meets the rules, but maybe it was because we were too troublesome that he was ruined of the opportunity he should have. ”

It is probably the hardest thing to have a clear conscience in everything, and it is precisely because of this that it is rare to have a clear conscience.

Li Zhan became serious and asked seriously, "Elder Zhang, why are you so opposed to Zhang Haiyang's joining the army?" ”

Zhang Lao glanced at Aunt Zhou and Zhang Haiyang and said, "You go out for a walk." ”

Li Zhan also glanced at Pei Lei, who immediately got up and saluted and walked out decisively.

Only Li Zhan and Zhang Lao were left in the living room.

Zhang Lao stood up and took off his clothes, and his upper body was completely stripped naked, thanks to the heating in the house, otherwise the old man would have to freeze at today's temperature. The problem is not here, but that Li Zhan saw the scars all over Zhang Lao's upper body, and he could see at a glance that they were all wounds caused by shrapnel.

Putting on his shirt again, Zhang Lao said in a deep voice with an expressionless face, "I was pulled out of the dead by my wife, and there is still a piece of shrapnel in my brain that can't be removed, and sometimes I make mistakes because of this root." At that time, everyone thought I was dead, and the Secretary General had already written my name on the list of the dead. It was my wife who took me out and asked for rescue, and pulled me out of the ghost gate. ”

"Do you want to know why I'm reluctant to let Zhang Haiyang join the army? The answer is very simple, I am just a son, he has to live well and pass on the lineage, my family has three generations of single transmission, and he is only a male in his generation, understand? ”

Li Zhan was silent.

Of course, he can come up with a whole lot of big truths to refute it, but in the face of such a reality, sometimes the truth can play a very limited role. In his later years, he had a son, three generations of single transmission, in order to continue the family bloodline and oppose his son's joining the army, is it difficult to choose?

For veterans like Zhang Lao who have participated in the war, his feelings for the army are by no means comparable to ordinary people. Did Li Zhan dare to talk about those big truths in front of Zhang Lao, he didn't dare, because he was very superficial! In the face of a veteran who joined the army at the age of sixteen and dedicated his entire life to the army, he was very superficial!

After a long silence, Li Zhan said in a deep voice, "Elder Zhang, I was sent to the army at the end of 08, and I encountered three special dangers within three months of arriving in the Second Division. No one thought I could get the plane back, and one of them even ejected, and everyone thought I was going to die, but I was alive and well. ”

"This is just the tip of the iceberg, in just three years, I have encountered more than a dozen special and first-class dangers, even more than the sum of the decades of history of a unit. Some comrades-in-arms failed to deal with and died when they encountered a special danger, is it because my ability is superior to theirs? This is not the only factor, luck is very important. ”

"A lot of people say that I fly a plane and pay for an engine, which means that I am a bad fan of the plane. Many people think it's a bad joke, but in fact, those who understand the inside story know that it's not so simple. Doesn't everyone like to be in danger? Zhang, you should understand. There will always be someone who will have to endure all this, and since they have chosen me, I will not hesitate. Of course, maybe you think it might have something to do with the fact that I have a younger brother who is not afraid of breaking the bloodline. But are these things we can decide? The number of casualties in traffic accidents is far greater than in airplanes, let alone illness. If I say that man is inherently dead or heavier than Mount Tai and lighter than a feather, you will definitely dismiss it, because your understanding and experience of this sentence is far deeper than mine. But in my opinion, in Zhang Haiyang's view, in the eyes of people of our age, don't we have the right to demand to experience a different and profound life? Wasn't that the case when you were younger? ”

Li Zhan stopped at this point in one breath.

Zhang Lao fell into deep thought.

For a long time, Li Zhan said, "Zhang Lao, Zhang Haiyang is a very good seedling, it's really a pity that he is not a pilot, and he likes to be a pilot." Instead of forcing him to do a job he doesn't like, let him choose for himself, which is the best mark of his youth. Besides, even if you join the army as a pilot, you don't have to stay in the army for the rest of your life. It's always good to have a few years of experience, and you know that more than I do. ”

"Xiao Li, let me be honest with you, in fact, I am not against Zhang Haiyang joining the army, but I am against him joining the HNA service, and even more against him serving in your Flying Shark Army. I believe you know the reason for this, shark piloting is known as the most dangerous profession in the world, and you know this better than me. If you agree to let him work in the land service post, I can let go. Zhang Lao said solemnly.

Li Zhan shook his head and said, "Elder Zhang, I came here to choose a pilot, and non-aircrew personnel are not in my consideration. However, air crew members are not only pilots, and I can neither guarantee that Zhang Haiyang will be able to successfully pass a series of training and assessments to become a pilot, nor can I guarantee that he will not be able to become a pilot. When you get to the army, many things are not transferred by personal will, you are an old leader, and you understand it very well. ”

"Then there's nothing to talk about, I will definitely not let Zhang Haiyang serve in the Flying Shark Force." Zhang Lao's attitude was very resolute.

Zhang Haiyang suddenly rushed in and said very resolutely, "Dad! I must be a pilot! I must be a pilot in the Flying Shark Unit! You have your considerations, I have my ideals! When I have the opportunity to become a pilot, if I don't cherish it, I'm afraid I'll regret it later! ”

"I don't care if you oppose it or support it! I've signed up! As long as the army decides to recruit me, no one can interfere! ”

"Rebellion!" Zhang Lao patted the case and glared angrily.

Li Zhan hurriedly stood up and said, "Elder Zhang is angry. Zhang Haiyang! You can't talk to your father like this, there are contradictions to solve contradictions, everyone sits down and talks about it, anger can't solve problems. ”

Aunt Zhou followed in to help persuade, "Lao Zhang, let the child go if he wants to join the army, you can't ask the child to live according to your wishes, you can be your old man when you are old." ”

It turned out that he had been listening outside the door.

"You're helping too? Do you know what unit he is going to? He's going to the Flying Shark Troop! He's going to the Flying Shark Troop! One of the most dangerous units in the whole army! Zhang Lao pointed at Zhang Haiyang and said angrily.

"What!?" Aunt Zhou was taken aback, and her face suddenly turned a little pale.

Li Zhan was embarrassed, was the Flying Shark Force so terrifying, it was like hearing the most terrible thing.

Zhang Haiyang's temper also rose, and he said loudly, "I will be a flying shark when I die!" ”
