Chapter 282: Frontier Airport
Li Yunxiang really slept all the way, and he didn't wake up when he encountered turbulence several times along the way.
Of course, nothing surprising.
He was the most famous pilot in the Empire, having spent half his life on airplanes, and in his own words, eating, drinking, and lazing could be done in the air.
Bai Zhizhan felt that if this was the case, he should not be a pilot, and it would be more promising to perform acrobatics in the circus.
When he came to Jidao, to be precise, when he landed, Li Yunxiang woke up.
The main thing is that after the plane landed, it was very jolting when taxiing.
"Don't be afraid, it's already landed, even if you rush off the runway, it's fine."
Li Yunxiang said this, Bai Zhizhan didn't pay attention to him at all.
He did hold on to the armrest of the seat tightly, his face was not very good-looking, not that he was afraid, but he stayed up for most of the night and was a little airsick.
Actually, it's too tired.
Like Li Yunxiang, Bai Zhizhan also slept for a while on the way, but the time when the bump was the worst, he couldn't sleep after waking up.
Soon, the plane slowly stopped.
Outside, it was brightly lit and full of people, and there was the roar of various vehicles and equipment.
This is like a forward airfield that may be bombed at any time, and more like a construction site in the rear.
To say, it is a construction site.
The transport planes are parked next to a row of huge hangars, a row of permanent hangars under construction, to be precise, which is why it is so noisy.
On the opposite side of the runway, hundreds of workers divided into teams are busy laying a special workpiece.
While Li Yunxiang went to contact the vehicle, Bai Zhizhan walked over to take a look.
It's not anything special, some honeycomb-shaped thin iron plates, about a centimeter thick, a meter long and half a meter wide.
The biggest advantage of making a honeycomb shape is that it can greatly reduce the weight while maintaining the structural strength, so that it is easier to transport.
As for the cost of production, it is a secondary issue, after all, it is just some thin iron plates.
The worker's job is to remove the iron plates from the truck, then spread them onto the ground leveled by the rollers, and finally fix them with clamps.
Another benefit of the honeycomb shape is that it is reflected when it is laid.
If the ground is not flat enough, you can fill the bottom with cement through the holes in the iron plate.
Critically, the work efficiency is very high.
In just ten minutes, a group of twenty workers laid almost a hundred.
At this rate, five groups of such workers would be able to build a field airfield on a flat area in just three days.
In addition, the runway, paved with thin iron plates, was certainly strong enough to withstand the impact of the bomber when it landed.
Li Yunxiang got a car, a very ordinary military off-road vehicle.
"Who came up with this?"
"I don't know, tactical aviation is used on the Icestorm Peninsula. I looked at it and thought it worked so well that I decided to do the same. If it weren't for the delay of the transport ship for a few days, the tarmac and the alternate runway that crosses the horizon would have been paved a few days ago. But the progress seems to be good, just a few days before and after. When a few bombers are arranged for landing tests, the airfield will be officially put into service. ”
At this time, Bai Zhizhan noticed that Li Yunxiang was wearing the military uniform of the Army Air Corps.
Obviously, Li Yunxiang has long been a member of the Army Airlines, and this is also the base of the Army Airlines.
To say, this army aviation military uniform is also very strange, the color and style are more similar to the military uniform of Hainan Airlines, perhaps the work of a clothing designer.
In fact, it is to distinguish itself from other combat units of the army.
Li Yunxiang, a "rebel" officer, is still working hard to form an air force.
"Where the Navy needs attention, remember to remind me. It's best to make a list and I'll find someone to deal with it when I get back. ”
"Just waiting for your words."
Bai Zhizhan smiled bitterly and shook his head, Li Yunxiang was obviously joking.
Even if he is already a general of the army aviation, but in the navy, Li Yunxiang's popularity is very good, and most of the officers will give him face.
For trivial things like transportation equipment, where do you need to be supervised by Bai Zhizhan.
Besides, if there is really a difficulty, even if Bai Zhizhan comes forward, it will not be solved.
Capacity is tight, so it's not a matter of a day and a half.
The war broke out less than three months ago, and many mobilizations have not been carried out, let alone completed, and there will definitely be all kinds of problems.
Even after the mobilization is completed, there will be a lot of trouble.
To say that the enemy is the biggest trouble, so the mission of the military is to solve the problem.
More than ten minutes later, the two arrived at the barracks on the other side of the airport.
Although Bai Zhizhan was provided with a single dormitory, and it was next to the commander's room, the conditions were not ordinary and simple.
The so-called single dormitory is just a single bed, a small stool, and a cabinet made of wooden boards.
To say, that is, to live alone.
Not to mention being special, eating, drinking, and Lazar are all with other officers and soldiers, and the officer's greatest privilege may be to be able to get a few more pieces of fat when eating.
Luckily, it's winter, it's just a bit cold, so you don't have to worry about mosquito bites.
Because he didn't sleep well on the way in, the orderly soldiers arranged by Li Yunxiang lit a stove and sent two new quilts, and Bai Zhizhan went to bed.
Li Yunxiang is still in good spirits.
It was as if he was sleeping on the plane, not only to make up for his sleep, but also to be able to devote himself to work immediately after arriving at the front line.
This guy is a madman when he's serious!
To say, this is also the most respected place for Li Yunxiang.
In the past, when he was still a flying officer, he worked very hard, so to speak, he had to do everything himself, and he led by example in all positions.
More than 10 years ago, it was he who risked his life to find out the rules of take-off and landing of carrier-based aircraft, and compiled the first teaching syllabus for carrier-based aviation in the Imperial Navy. Although it has been revised several times, the core content of the syllabus is still the experience that Li Yunxiang explored and summed up back then.
This kind of person who is consistent on the outside is rare at any time.
Other generals, even those real generals of Lian Xusheng, which one is not full of style?
Not only the army, but also the navy, and even more carried away, such as the second ancestors of the Liu family, as well as the sons and daughters of the He family.
As for the cold winter night, what is it for the soldiers?
More than 20 years ago, on the other side of the Cloud Canyon, what hardships had you not suffered?
In Li Yunxiang's words, once the plane broke down and made a forced landing behind enemy lines, but I heard from others that it was shot down by an enemy plane, and it was the only time in Li Yunxiang's life that he was defeated and took Maicheng, anyway, he hid in the forest for a few days and saved his life by eating ants and earthworms.
If you want to say, the conditions are now many times better than they were twenty years ago.
It is this kind of honest and straightforward personality that allowed Li Yunxiang to capture Fang Suqing's heart and create a legend of his era.
Until now, Li Yunxiang has been a model and idol in the minds of many officers and men of the air force.
In Bai Zhizhan's words, a close friend like Li Yunxiang should be content if he can have one in his life.
This night, Bai Zhizhan will not share the worries of his best friend.
By the time Bai Zhizhan woke up, it was already early the next morning.
After having breakfast with Li Yunxiang, to be precise, from the beginning of breakfast, Bai Zhizhan became busy.
