The interior of the submarine is actually a cylindrical steel pipe with a diameter of less than three meters, and the space is very small, and the passage is covered with a narrow layer of steel plates, and the surface is coated with anti-slip glue.

Ling Jingyi saw that there were also some sailors in the boat wearing coarse cloth overalls who were overhauling the submarine. The cabins in the boat were littered with pipes, valves, and round handles, and the wheelroom was equipped with a number of pointer meters, on which were rows of warning lights, control handles, large wheels, and haphazard steel cables, and the lights on the switchboard illuminated all the green-painted partitions in the cabin.

Despite the constant humming of a ventilator, the cabin was damp and stuffy, and the air still smelled of oil, aged cigars and unbathed men. They stepped through an open, waterproof door to an officer's quarters. Li Haiming's captain's cabin is the largest room on board, but the bed is only less than 60 centimeters wide. On the bulkhead above the small desk, there is a frame with a photo of Ling Jingyi.

Ling Jingyi blushed, "You live in a place like this?" ”

"Of course, this is the best room on the boat, and no one else has such a good treatment." Li Haiming said quite smugly.

"Can you take some pictures of the life of a sailor?"

"Of course, the cabin and dining room are casual, and the layout of the command cabin is similar to that of each country, but the dashboard in the operation cabin cannot take pictures." Li Haiming still reiterated the discipline.

The newest submarine of the Imperial Navy has been able to dive to a depth of 300 meters, and its performance far exceeds that of the current submarines of various countries, but this is an absolute secret.

The air in the boat was so dirty that Ling Jingyi felt a little dizzy after staying in it for less than an hour, so she had to climb outside the boat again, find a few small stools on the deck, interview the sailors, and chat about their daily operations and life.

The officers and men on the ship had all been instructed by Li Haiming not to talk about the dangerous experiences during combat and training, so everyone picked up some magical stories and told them to Ling Jingyi. For example, once Su Mingluo was fishing on the deck and fell into the water; Sometimes they accidentally picked up a dozen flying fish on the deck during night cruises, saw strange aurora lights while cruising in the North Pole, and even hit a white bear while cruising in the northern Bering Sea (this is done by other submarine forces, but it does not prevent sailors from showing off and bragging, especially to a beautiful woman).

Li Haiming and Jin Jianjiang stood on the bridge and smoked, and when they saw Ling Jingyi's eyes lit up when they heard the submarine life boasted by the sailors, with a look of envy, Jin Jianjiang spit out a smoke ring in his mouth: "Dude, it seems that your girlfriend has been deceived by the nonsense made up by the big soldiers, thinking that our life on the submarine is like heaven, but in fact, ...... I'm tired of life on the boat. ”

"There's no way, it's too late to regret it now." Li Haiming also shook his head, "I now deeply regret my decision to join the submarine force, no wonder the old guys on the submarine are opposed to their children serving in the submarine again." He grinned, "We're doing the boring jobs in the world, like those assassins." ”

The submarine's cook cooked a few good dishes, and the sailors somehow found two wooden tables from the dock and held a party on the deck of the submarine. A large heart-shaped cake was placed on the table, Ling Jingyi sat on the chief, took a saber in her hand, and distributed the cake for those sailors with her own hands. I could feel that these young people were happy, and it also made the guys on some nearby submarines jealous, whistling and coaxing.

When Li Haiming sent Ling Jingyi to the car, the sailors all ran to the dock and waved to them, and some of the brave sailors even whistled, which was much happier than sending the captains in the fleet.

They kissed at the gate of the base and reluctantly parted.

Ling Jingyi suddenly hugged Li Haiming and said: "Haiming, in fact, I know how boring and full of danger life on the submarine is. You have to promise me, no matter when, the first thought is to live well, promise me! ”

"Hmm...... I promise you! Li Haiming nodded solemnly.

"That's right!" Ling Jingyi had a bright smile on her face, but tears couldn't help but flow out, "Father said that before a good submarine commander makes a decision, the first thought that comes to mind is to live, not to recklessly attack the enemy and want to make a contribution. ”

"Okay, baby, I'm going to live well, because I'm going to marry you." Li Haiming kissed her, "This is a dream I've had since I was 13 years old, I don't want you to fall into the hands of others!" ”

……

It was January 16, 906, just after the New Year, and a group of recruits from Qinzhou and Yulin walked into the Royal Mountain Infantry Training Camp in Fangchenggang 100,000 Mountain, which was built during the founding of the Empire - next to a royal castle manor with a white dome in the Persian and Dashi architectural styles, the castle always brings an inexplicable sense of mystery and awe.

Ling Kaiyue was a little frustrated, he failed the pilot exam of the aviation unit in the recruit barracks, but was assigned to the army unit, I don't know what his father, who was a naval officer, would think if he found out. It was his dream to become a pilot, to be able to fly airplanes, and to fly freely between the blue sky and white clouds, and it was for this reason that after graduating from high school, despite his mother's opposition and obstruction, he secretly ran to the Imperial Army Aviation Recruit Training Camp in the North Sea to enroll.

To his disappointment, because of his slight fear of heights, he was dismissed from the pilot examination and was assigned to the 11th Mountain Infantry Division in Fangchenggang with a group of eliminated recruits. Recruit life is exciting, and the environment in the Army barracks is a freshness.

Now that Ling Kaiyue has two new training uniforms and a new and uniform uniform, the boy in the military uniform always gives a sense of masculinity and handsomeness, and he is certainly proud of his new image, and on the third day of entering the barracks, he took a full-length portrait as a souvenir - with the white-domed castle in the background.

The 11th Mountain Infantry Division of the Imperial Army was a newly formed unit after the start of the war, and the 14,600 officers and men of the division were mainly from the state capitals in the mountainous areas of Lingnan West Road, and nearly one-third of them were mountain people from the western part of Lingnan. This also includes some of the original natives, who were born and raised in the empire and have been deeply influenced by the empire's continuous education for more than 200 years, and are very proficient in listening, speaking, reading and writing in Chinese.

In fact, most of them don't speak the local language anymore.

The training of the mountain troops was very rigorous, and the recruits finally got to know what "devilish training" was......
