350. Airborne Forces
The shark's wife saw that everyone saluted her, remembering that when she went to visit relatives in the army before, the shark's comrades-in-arms saluted her like this, the tears had dried up in the past few days, but she couldn't help but shed tears of excitement again, she choked up and said: "Big brothers, Xiaoyu has comrades like you worth, I thank you for Xiaoyu, please rest assured, the government has given us enough pension for our mother's life, even if there is no government subsidy, I still have hands, I can support the whole family by working, I will wait for my mother-in-law until I am old, and I will raise my children to grow up to be like you. ”
"Sister-in-law, I'm relieved to have your words, you are the greatest woman in the world, I believe you will do it, we still have an important training mission, the plane is already waiting for us over there, we should go, sister-in-law, take care." Qin Jian said.
"You can go with confidence, I'll accompany Xiaoyu for a while, he's too lonely alone." The shark's wife waved to the team members with tears in her eyes.
"Okay, you accompany Brother Shark, if Brother Shark knows underground, he will definitely be grateful to you, sister-in-law, let's go." Qin Jian said.
Saying goodbye to the shark's wife, everyone turned back step by step, and kept waving as they went. Out of the martyrs' cemetery, in an open field not far away, a helicopter gunship was parked there, the hatch had been opened, it seemed that it was waiting for them, Qin Jian commanded everyone to board the plane, he jumped up the last one, and pulled the hatch with his hand.
"Take off." Qin Jian ordered.
"Yes." The pilot started the engine as he spoke, the propeller turned slowly, and the propeller blades were no longer visible in an instant, and with the roar of the engine, the helicopter slowly left the ground and soon rose to a height of several hundred meters.
"Captain, I want to see the shark again." Sun Jiashu pleaded with Qin Jian and said.
"Captain, we all want to see the shark again." Everyone chimed in.
"I also want to see the sharks again, go around the martyrs' cemetery for three weeks, and pay tribute to the sharks." Qin Jian ordered.
"Yes." As soon as the pilot pulled the joystick, he saw the helicopter suddenly turn to one side and circle around the martyrs' cemetery.
Sun Jiashu looked down through the window, the martyr's cemetery is like a castle, surrounded by lush trees, the stele is neatly located in the cemetery, the cemetery of the shark is surrounded by a hundred flowers, the shark's mausoleum is surrounded by flowers sent by the masses, it looks particularly eye-catching, the shark's wife is still crying with the stele, Sun Jiashu involuntarily raised his hand to salute, everyone followed him to salute the shark's mausoleum, the three laps of flight were completed, and the helicopter flew westward.
"Platoon commander, where are we going?" Zhang Ershun asked Sun Jiashu.
"I don't know where to go, so I'd better ask the captain." Sun Jiashu said with a wry smile that along the way, he never knew where he was going or what he was going to do, just like a swarm of headless flies scurrying around, and wherever he hit, he was everywhere.
"Go to the Air Force Parachute Brigade." Qin Jian said coldly.
"Skydive." Zhang Ershun couldn't help frowning when he heard this, and a cold sweat broke out on his body, he was most afraid of skydiving, because skydiving was at a high altitude, and he had a fear of heights.
"Zhang Ershun, have you overcome your fear of heights?" Sun Jiashu asked.
"...... has been overcome. Zhang Ershun stammered.
"Is it going to work?" Sun Jiashu asked.
"Okay, I jumped off by myself last time, platoon commander, you forgot, it wasn't me, you would have been filled with the sea a long time ago." Zhang Ershun said.
"Hopefully, you've overcome your fear of heights so that you don't pull the whole team back." Sun Jiashu said with a wry smile.
"Captain, this time we are conducting airborne training, will I be allowed to fly the plane? You see, I haven't touched the joystick for so long, and my palms are a little itchy. The pilot asked Qin Jian.
"I wonder how many aircraft you've flown over?" Qin Jian asked the pilot rhetorically.
"I flew over J-8-J-9, Wuzhi, and little dragonflies and bumblebees." Said the pilot.
"Did you fly over J-10?" Qin Jian asked.
"I think I've seen it once."
"This time you can fly all over the country, from helicopters and transport planes to state-of-the-art fighter jets, is there anything else you want to say?" Qin Jian asked.
"Report to the captain, it's gone." The pilot sat down happily.
"Captain, why are we still doing airborne training?" The engineer asked.
"Because we are a sharp knife, we have to be omnipresent, and in order to do this, we must become a qualified airborne force, and the super-mobile ability of the airborne troops has overshadowed the swiftness of cavalry, the rapid reaction of motorized troops, and the galloping of mechanized troops. The military importance of the heights, the use of obstacles, the use of reserves, the coordination of supporting fire, flank cover, and the use of feints and surprise attacks were placed in a completely different position. Wide rivers, high cloud mountains, and impenetrable rainforests are no longer a problem, because there is always an exposed sky above our heads, and China's new generation of heavenly soldiers have an all-round, all-weather airborne combat capability that can fly at any time, descend everywhere, and land, and become a formidable rapid assault force in the PLA sequence. Only by becoming an airborne soldier will we be omnipresent. Qin Jian replied.
"Oh, the Airborne Forces are so powerful, Captain. How long are we going to train this time? The engineer asked.
"Three months." Qin Jian replied expressionlessly.
"It takes three months to learn how to skydive, is it longer than becoming a frogman?"
"You only have a week to actually skydive." Qin Jian said.
"That's pretty much it, we can rest the rest of the time." The engineer got carried away.
"Don't get too happy, the rest of the time will be even harder, and you'll have to sweat and sweat for the preparation of the jump." Qin Jian poured cold water and said.
"Still bleeding and sweating?" The engineer was a little confused.
"I want to tell you first what kind of army we are going to, you will understand, everyone has seen the movie Shangganling, which has a great achievement in the Shangganling Division, this army in the War of Liberation opened up the base area in western Henan, conquered the Huaihai, forcibly crossed the Yangtze River, swept across the two Guangzhou, suppressed the bandits Yunnan, Guichuan, and fought in the Korean War Shangganling, so that the Americans were frightened, and created a miracle in the history of world wars that the ground heroes broke through the limitations of the terrain, in 1950, Zhongyangjunwei telegraphed to all military regions, All field armies are required to form air force and marine units by transferring a number of combat heroes, or model squad and platoon cadres, from all army units as the main force of the Shangganling Division. Soon after, it was stipulated that the number of those who were insufficient could be by-elected from among the first and second class meritorious persons. Soon, 4,763 commanders and fighters from all units across the country gathered in the ancient city of Kaifeng Mansion. On 17 September of that year, the First Marine Brigade of the Air Force, the first airborne unit of the People's Army, was formally established in Kaifeng. In 1961, the Central Committee decided to reorganize the Shangganling unit, which had made great achievements in war, into an airborne division, and this unit implemented the strategy of the Central Military Commission in the new period, and successively went north to Changbai Mountain to carry out field survival training in cold areas for high-tech operations, went south to Sichuan and Guangxi, and westward to Qinghai-Tibet to carry out "three high" trial training and training, carried out training in special environments and climates such as water, forests, plateaus, islands, hills, cold regions, and subtropics, and parachute jumps and heavy airdrop tests of new aircraft and new parachutes, and organized special teams and assault vehicles to parachute and airdrop on the same plane, parachute infiltration and sabotage raids. Paramotor aerial cross-point attack and other drills. At present, the airborne troops, from the commander to the soldier, regardless of gender, age, or position, have mastered the parachuting skills of eight subjects, including five types of aircraft, nine types of terrain, two parachutes, and full armament. The results of the detachment's trial training in such areas as day and night, special terrain, armed parachuting, and field survival have been gradually transformed into the combat effectiveness of the entire battalion and regiment. It has become a strong air force in the blue sky and waves. ”
"That's amazing!" Everyone couldn't help but gasp when they heard this, the training intensity of an integrated division has reached the level of training of special forces, which is incredible.
"After you arrive at the parachute brigade, the superior will appoint an instructor, you should call the parachute training commander to train you, I heard that he was the first Chinese soldier to step into the edge of the Vietnamese capital in the Vietnam War, at that time, if Yang Junwei gave an order, he could be the first to enter Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam, he is a veritable combat hero, his name is Huang Zhennan, I heard that he trained soldiers to be famous for being inhumane, when the officers parachuted for training, many officers in the airborne division who were older than him were scolded by him, and even the division commander gave him three points, After arriving at the training base, everything you have is at his disposal, including your life, I advise you to take the opportunity to rest and rest and retain a little physical strength. Qin Jian said.
"Ah, that's amazing?" The engineer said with his tongue sticking out.
Everyone stopped talking after listening, and they all pretended to close their eyes and recuperate, all thinking about what kind of flyer Huang Zhennan was, the whole cabin only heard the roar of the engine, the helicopter didn't know how long it had been flying, and in a daze heard the pilot report: "Ten minutes later, we will arrive at the destination, please instruct!" ”
"Prepare to land." Qin Jian ordered.
"Yes." The pilot turns on the headset and starts making contact.
Hearing that it was going to land, everyone opened their eyes one after another, stretched their necks to look out of the cabin, good guys, it was dark outside the window, and then looked down, the ground was brightly lit, the traffic was busy, and before you knew it was night.
There are lights flashing on the ground, it seems to be a signal light to guide the helicopter to land, the helicopter flies along the light, getting lower and lower from the ground, the strong wind of the propeller blows the ground like a sandstorm, the helicopter just landed, Zhang Ershun rushed to open the hatch, and the pilot grabbed him at once.
"What's the panic? I don't want to be a native and wait a few minutes before I open it. "The pilot often flies planes, and he knows that this is the time when the dust is flying, and once the cabin door is opened, the dust will quickly rush into the cabin.
Zhang Ershun's hand pulling the hatch was fixed there, it was really stupid, it seemed that he had done such a stupid thing once before, and he forgot about it today, after waiting for about five minutes, Qin Jian motioned to Zhang Ershun to open the hatch, and everyone jumped out of the helicopter one by one.
There was a group of people under the light in front, Qin Jian led everyone towards the group of people, needless to say, it must have picked them up, and when they got closer, they saw clearly, the leader was a colonel, about forty years old, Qin Jian is now only a lieutenant colonel, according to the Chinese * civil * liberation (release * military regulations, those with low ranks should salute officers with high ranks, and he hurriedly strode forward to salute and report: "Comrade Colonel, all the members of the Longyabei Column of the Roaring Special Operations Brigade come to report, please instruct." ”
After returning the salute, the colonel said: "Comrades, you have worked hard all the way, food and lodging have been arranged for you, you are tired today, you can wash and sleep after eating, and the training work will officially begin tomorrow." ”
"Excuse me, the chief's name." Qin Jian asked.
"Oh, my name is Huang Zhennan." said the colonel.
Huang Zhennan, everyone couldn't help but gasp when they heard this......
