The deputy brigade commander at the deputy division level personally received Li Zhan and held an informal meeting with Li Zhan on the establishment of an air rescue detachment, which was as high as a three- or four-story building.

The 101st Brigade sent Li Zhan over to explain to a certain extent that Li Zhan can call the shots in this matter, and the Army Aviation Brigade has to be a deputy division-level leader to come forward.

The plan was transmitted in advance through a secret telegram, and Lu Zhenduo carefully studied it, and the brigade also held a meeting to study it.

Lu Zhenduo said, "The idea is very good, and some specific details have to be discussed face-to-face, so please come and talk about it." ”

Li Zhan said, "The Eagle Falcon Brigade is a simulated Blue Army unit, chief, you have visited us, and our brigade is basically based on a certain aviation wing of a strong enemy as the simulated object. My idea for the construction of the air rescue detachment is to be carried out within the framework of a simulated blue army unit, and it will be much easier to carry out it with ready-made learning objects. ”

Lu Zhenduo motioned for Li Zhan to continue.

Li Zhan said: "In the name of garrison training, the Army Aviation Brigade has stationed two or three helicopters at the Beiku Combat Training Base, and our side has drawn a platoon of soldiers from the base guard company and asked the Tiger Squad to provide guidance and establish a standing air rescue detachment. In this way, the Army Aviation Brigade can get training close to actual combat, and we can also get a unit to deal with emergency air rescue missions. ”

"What about the funds, how to solve the funds?" Lu Zhenduo hit the core, smiled and said, "We are responsible for the support of the aircraft, but what about other logistics support?" ”

Li Zhan said helplessly, "Chief, since it is placed within the framework of my simulated Blue Army, the funds and logistics support are naturally on our side, you can rest assured of this." ”

"Then we're fine." Lu Zhenduo said.

In the final analysis, it is a matter of money, and the Army Aviation Brigade will not send planes and people to help you set up an air rescue detachment. If they want to engage in actual combat training, they can't do it, besides, they are army aviation, and there are a lot of special forces in the old army, so they can do it themselves, and they also need air rescue.

The so-called air crew rescue is aimed at the rescue of parachuted air crew, including fighter pilots.

The Beiku area is too big, and there are a lot of uninhabited areas, and the terrain is complex and the weather is changeable. After the pilot encounters a dangerous situation in the air and has to abandon the plane and parachute, if he falls into a no-man's land or deep in the mountains, his survival will be greatly challenged. The purpose of the air rescue detachment is to solve this problem.

The value of a pilot is far greater than that of a fighter, and it is worth spending more resources to save the life of a pilot. Even in extreme cases, even at the cost of other lives, it is necessary to save the pilots who are trapped in the belly of the enemy.

Li Zhan knew that the informal meeting would go well, because he was mentally prepared to pay and had Xue Xiangdong's consent.

"Chief, can you send two gunships and two transport helicopters?" Li Zhan asked.

Lu Zhenduo shook his head, "At most, one each." ”

Li Zhan thought for a while, "Then can we have another transport helicopter?" There were three of them. ”

Lu Zhenduo fell into deep thought.

Li Zhan said, "Chief, the South Kuchang Station and the East Kuchang Station have been officially assigned to our 101st Brigade, and the distance between the three places is more than 200 kilometers. Helicopters are in great need of a commute in an emergency. ”

The distance of two or three hundred kilometers, it takes three or four hours to drive, and there is an emergency when the person arrives and the cucumber dish is cold.

But the use of helicopters for commuting is not something that the brigade can decide, it has to be approved by the military district, and it is almost certain that it will not be approved. Li Zhan's meaning is very clear, it will be equipped with helicopters in the name of the air rescue detachment, and it will be used in the same name in the future.

Lu Zhenduo thought about it for a moment and said, "I have to ask the brigade commander for a discussion." We, like you, don't read the upgrades, but the planes are still the same planes, and the overstretched planes are completely insufficient. Speaking of which, you have a lot more planes than we do. ”

The old 101st Regiment was a large fighter regiment with nearly 60 fighters. After taking over the second division, the number of old flankers has decreased, but the number is still relatively large. A regiment is worthy of some small fighter divisions. The Army Aviation Regiment is a standard Army Aviation Regiment with more than 20 helicopters, which will increase to 30 or 40 after being upgraded to brigades. However, there is a process to assemble fighters.

Li Zhan said, "Chief, you have a chance to be promoted to the Army Aviation Division. The Beiku area is really too big, the army aviation unit is only your one, and here is the front line, and the border control patrol alone is enough of a headache. ”

"Yes, the task is heavy and there are not enough troops. In the area of combat readiness patrols, we also have a basis for coordination. Divide the labor and make full use of the existing resources. Lu Zhenduo said, "What we mean is simply to establish a coordinated patrol mechanism, which can cover combat readiness patrols at high and low altitudes." Some complex areas where it is difficult for your fixed wing to achieve comprehensive coverage, we can supplement them, and vice versa. ”

This is the real purpose of the Army Aviation Brigade, and the funds are relatively nothing.

The Beiku Army Aviation Brigade is different from the Army Aviation Unit to which the Army Group Army belongs to the Mobile Combat Unit, and it is an Army Aviation Unit subordinate to the Beiku Military Region, and it is responsible for heavy border control and patrol tasks on a daily basis. The terrain in the Beiku area is complex, and it is difficult to achieve 100 percent coverage of manpower patrols, and helicopter air patrols have been realized many years ago, but due to the limited number and performance of helicopters, there has always been an objective lack of work in this area.

The Beiku Military Region is a sub-corps-level unit, and the Beiku Military Sub-district are two different military units. The former is mainly responsible for the defense of the homeland, while the latter is mainly responsible for the militia reserve and national defense mobilization.

The main reason for the upgrading of the Beiku Army Aviation Regiment to the Army Aviation Brigade is that the heavy daily patrols and combat readiness patrols have put forward higher requirements, and more personnel and more aircraft are needed. As a mobile strike force, the leaders of the Beiku Army Aviation Brigade obviously will not let the troops be bound by daily patrol tasks, which will increase the combat effectiveness of the troops.

Therefore, seeking to coordinate the reduction of the burden of daily patrols is the most concerned matter for the leadership of the brigade at present.

Being able to establish a coordinated patrol mechanism with the 101st Brigade will undoubtedly greatly reduce the intensity of daily patrols, and the brigade will have more time for combat training.

Li Zhan pondered for a moment and said, "In principle, I personally think it is feasible, and I will report to my superiors immediately after I go back, and your Army Aviation Brigade will also formally communicate with our brigade and formally put forward the idea of a coordinated patrol mechanism." ”

"Xiao Li, after your regiment is transformed into a brigade, all the tasks such as combat readiness duty and combat readiness patrol in the Beiku area will be handed over to your brigade, and the daily patrol is mainly responsible for the second and third brigades, and the focus of your Eagle Falcon Brigade is to simulate the construction of the Blue Army." Lu Zhenduo said, "But I heard that the second and third brigades are also striving to simulate the construction of the blue army, in this case, will your brigade make certain adjustments to the daily patrols?" ”

Although Lu Zhenduo said it very tactfully, the meaning was very clear. There is also competition within the 101st Brigade, and it is inevitable that the Second Brigade and the Third Brigade will inevitably have ideas in their hearts when they see the first brigade of popular and spicy drinks, and become a well-known blue army unit in the army. They all fly fighter jets, your plane has afterburner, my plane also has afterburner, no one has fewer rivets than others, and I can fight when I wear a military uniform, must I be worse than you?

If the 101st Brigade makes adjustments, it will definitely affect the coordinated patrol mechanism with the Army Aviation Brigade in this process, and what Lu Zhenduo wants is a stable and long-term cooperative patrol partner.

Li Zhan had a plan in mind for this, he said, "Chief, I can make a commitment that no matter which brigade is assigned to the task of daily patrols, ensuring the stability of the coordinated patrol mechanism is the first priority." ”

"Okay, then I'll be fine." Lu Zhenduo smiled with satisfaction, "When my new plane comes down, the number will go up, and I can take on more patrol tasks here." ”

Li Zhan got up, "It's a word, chief, I have to rush back to the base, I will do the preliminary work as soon as possible, and look forward to the formal talks between the two sides." ”

"Don't worry, just stay here for one night." Lu Zhenduo said.

Li Zhan refused with a smile, "No, I will definitely bring officers and soldiers to visit the Army Aviation Brigade when I have the opportunity in the future." ”

"Okay, then I won't keep you, be careful on the road, there have been several roadblock robberies in the Beiku area recently, mainly for self-driving tourists, and the impact is very bad." Lu Zhenduo reminded.

The station is on the edge of the city and can receive more information about the place, unlike the Beiku combat training base, which is 200 kilometers away under the foothills of the mountains where birds don't.

Li Zhan patted the cowhide holster on his waist, "With a gun, besides, we are a military vehicle." ”

"It's not clear whether you're a military vehicle or a civilian vehicle at night, so be more careful in general." Lu Zhenduo admonished.

There is a tourist road connecting the Beiku combat training base and the airport in the western suburbs, and after passing through the town of 30 miles, it will drive southwest into the combat readiness highway to arrive at the Beiku combat training base, and it will be at an angle of about 45 degrees with another non-paved highway through the desert.

The case-prone section mentioned by Lu Zhenduo is the east-west tourist highway.

Li Zhan really didn't pay attention to it, even if he didn't bring a gun and was wearing a military uniform. Military uniforms are the best body armor and weapons.

After going downstairs, Pei Lei was already waiting in the car, and the 3.2-liter supercharged intercooled diesel engine in the engine compartment of the green warrior commuter car made a powerful "suddenly" sound. Li Zhan saluted Lu Zhenduo and shook hands goodbye, jumped into the passenger seat and closed the door, Pei Lei stepped on the clutch gear and left.

"Captain, go back the way you came?" Pei Lei asked for instructions.

Li Zhan hesitated for a moment and said, "Advanced City." ”

Pei Lei's eyebrows jumped, and he asked in a low voice, "Wash your feet?" ”

"You're looking for death." Li Zhan glared at Pei Lei and said, "Han Hongjun and Li Zixin, their wives have been pregnant for more than half a year, and they haven't had a chance to visit, so let's go and see now." Go to the mall first and buy some gifts. ”

"Understood!"
