Chapter 292: Training at Sea (Part II)

With the change of identity and status, the surrounding environment of people is also constantly changing. For General Chen Jiliang, it is natural for them to do these things, because Gao Yang is the commander-in-chief, and whether it is a rest cabin or a solitary access to the officer's canteen, it is the treatment he deserves.

Before Gao Yang boarded the ship, they invited a senior chef to board the ship with tools and ingredients. It is dedicated to serving Gaoyang.

But for Gao Yang, this is a deep chasm that separates him from other people's lives. This is the loneliness of the superior.

A tasteless lunch. Gao Yang originally wanted to have a good chat with the generals during dinner, where would he have thought that this situation would occur?

After a hurried end to lunch, Gao Yang put on the mask of indifference again. Quietly watched an afternoon of naval training.

Because Zhilu Dao Gao Yang watched on the flagship. The officers and men of the entire Grand Fleet worked very hard. The air force was trained in aerial combat, combined formation assault, sea-skimming attack, dive attack and other items, and tried their best to perform in front of Gao Yang.

"Tell Chen Shaokuan that the training of the aviation fighter unit is not up to standard!" Gao Yang put down the binoculars and said indifferently.

"Yes, sir!" General Chen Jiliang hurriedly responded. Then he asked with some apprehension, "How should I say it to Captain Chen Shaokuan?" ”

What he meant by saying this was to ask Gao Yang, what is it for?

Gao Yang turned his head to look at him, a faint sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said, "What does the fighter formation do?" They just played tricks in front of me, playing tricks, stunts! They are the military, not aviation enthusiasts! ”

Everyone in the bridge heard the dissatisfaction in Gao Yang's tone, and they all held their breath, bowed their heads slightly, and listened to Gao Yang quietly.

Gao Yang glanced coldly at everyone in front of him and eased his tone. He went on to say, "The fighter formation is responsible for dealing with enemy fighters when attacking, covering the attack aircraft group of the team, and attracting and tearing away the enemy's defensive firepower." Their mission in a fleet defense battle is not to compete with enemy fighters, but to destroy attack aircraft that can threaten the fleet at any cost! ”

Gao Yang stretched out his hand and pointed to the fighter plane playing dazzling fancy moves outside, and said in a deep voice, "Look at what they are doing?" When the simulated attack formation came over just now, they all rushed to compete with the escort fighter formation, what was this for? Show off your skills? In order to increase the downfall mark on your own fighter? That's how you usually train?! ”

Gao Yang's stern words made everyone in the bridge bow their heads in shame. General Chen Jiliang's face was red and white, he was the commander of the fleet, and anything could be counted on his head.

Because there is no opponent of comparable strength, the aviation forces have always been trained like this, where would you think of this? The professionals in the first cabin who specialize in the navy were all blushed by Gao Yang, a layman. It's a shame.

"Sir. The navy will certainly conscientiously rectify and reform and strive to do its best. General Chen Jiliang shouted loudly.

Gao Yang waved his hand, glanced at him, and said in a deep voice, "We're just getting started now. Although he has a scientific and technological strength that far surpasses that of any opponent, if he doesn't work hard, he can only watch the enemy catch up! Remember, it's not about being the best, it's about doing better! ”

"Yes, sir!" This time all the officers in the bridge answered in unison. The voice is loud. It is full of strong perseverance.

Gao Yang glanced at them noncommittally, shook his head slightly, raised his binoculars and continued to watch the training.

"The tactics are not good, but the skills are still good." Watching the warplanes flying in the sky show off their superb skills. Gao Yang curled the corners of his lips slightly and said with a chuckle.

"Sir, the pilots have been carefully selected after rigorous training, and their skills are indeed excellent." General Chen Jiliang stepped forward and said.

"Huh?" Gao Yang's hand holding the telescope paused slightly. He said in a deep voice: "Now the selection of HNA pilots is the use of elite politics. Plan? ”

"Sir, only the best pilots will be selected." Chen Jiliang heard that Gao Yang's tone was wrong, but he didn't know what was wrong with Lu Dao. I can only answer with a hard head.

Gao Yang looked at him coldly, his eyes revealing complex and inexplicable emotions. At this moment, he thought of Japan in another time and space.

At the time of World War II, meritocracy was adopted. In the early days of the Pacific War, the Japanese naval air force defeated the Allied rookie pilots.

However, after the loss of all these elite pilots with excellent skills and rich experience, the whole situation of the war took a sharp turn for the worse, and there were no aircraft carriers and a large number of aircraft, but they could only adopt the kamikaze tactics that would end up in the same fate. That's a lesson from the past.

"Ji Liang." Gao Yang turned to look at Commander Chen, and said in a gentle tone, "Now I give a formal order to the navy. ”

General Chen Jiliang, who was taken aback by Gao Yang's soft tone, hurriedly said, "Yes, sir! ”

Gao Yang reached out and patted him on the shoulder, chuckling and said, "I order." Everyone in the bridge stood up at the same time, looking at Gao Yang.

Glancing at the people on the bridge, he paused, and then said, "From today onwards, naval aviation must not use the elite method in selecting pilots. All the top pilots are transferred back to the flight school to work as instructors after reaching a certain standard. ”

"The Navy doesn't need a super ace who shoots down a hundred enemy planes, the Navy needs him to teach ten excellent students who shoot down ten enemy planes! It doesn't matter if you can't board an aircraft carrier, you can first go to land-based aviation, and when there is a shortage on an aircraft carrier, you can quickly fill in a candidate with a small difference in ability. This is very important in a long war, you see? ”

"Yes, sir!" Chen Jiliang looked serious and said loudly.

"Hmm." Gao Yang nodded with satisfaction. I thought that when I got back, I would use the official command document to give this thing down. The Navy must have its own specialized aviation school, and now it is time to separate from the Air Force.

The aviation troops flying in the sky outside had no idea that their efforts to show their skills to Gao Yang would make Gao Yang discover what he had ignored before.

The bright sun gradually dissipated, and the fiery red sun in the distance gradually disappeared between the sea and the sky. The golden sunset spreads on the calm sea.

After an afternoon of busy training, the fighters began to fall back to the mothership between them, and today's aviation training ended. Now there are no aircraft capable of night battles.

On the Dingyuan, Gao Yang, who had dinner, came to the deck. Close your eyes slightly, raise your chin, feel the refreshing feeling brought by the gentle sea breeze, and look like you are enjoying it.

General Chen Jiliang came quietly behind Gao Yang, standing there with solemn eyes, without saying a word. Gao Yang's remarks in the afternoon made his originally proud original intention gradually quiet down.

After a period of silence, Gao Yang said loudly, "You say, once the weather is bad and the aviation unit cannot fight, how should the navy deal with the enemy?" ”

Gao Yang was lying on the railing, with a playful smile on the corner of his mouth, and looked at General Chen Jiliang with clear eyes.

"Sir, under normal circumstances, you should choose to temporarily back down and wait for the situation to be suitable before using naval aviation to attack the enemy. After all, it's always better to attack the enemy from a distance than to engage in an artillery battle with unpredictable outcomes. General Chen Jiliang said in a low voice.

"What if the situation is exceptional? What to do if you have to fight? Gao Yang asked softly. But his gaze became sharp.

Feeling Gao Yang's gaze, General Chen Jiliang straightened up slightly, restrained his respectful smile, and his demeanor became serious. "Once that moment comes, the only way to fight to the death is to fight!" ”

"Hmm." Gao Yang replied softly, noncommittal to General Chen's answer. Turn your head and continue to look out at the sea.

After a while, when the distant sun finally disappeared below the sea level and the cold wind of the night gradually blew, Gao Yang said loudly, "What happened to those two aircraft carriers at the Wu Navy Shipyard?" How long do sea trials and habilitation training take? ”

"Sir, those two aircraft carriers have been almost refitted, and it is expected that the sea trials will be officially held in a few days. Acclimatization training can be completed in no time. The officers and men who booked the two ships have long since passed. At most, it will take more than a month to initially form combat effectiveness. General Chen Jiliang said in a deep voice.

"Hmm." Gao Yang nodded and said softly, "Hurry up." ”

"Sir, those two ships are about to enter service. Do you see if you can change their names? After all, their current names are too Japanese. Chen Jiliang hesitated for a moment and said softly.

"No, you don't." Gao Yang turned around and leaned against the railing, with a faint smile between his eyebrows, looked at General Chen in front of him, and said, "Why do you want to change your name?" Just use the current one. Let the Japanese remember this shame, and let us remember to be vigilant! If we don't go all out, we may be the next Japan! ”

"Sir, what will we do after the Wu Naval Factory completes the transformation of these two warships? Do you want to return it to the Japanese? General Chen Jiliang said with a worried face.

As a very advanced and large naval shipyard in Asia, the equipment and technical personnel of the Kure Naval Factory have a fatal attraction to the entire navy. No one wants to just let it go. It's just that it is up to Gao Yang to make a decision.

Looking at General Chen with eager eyes, Gao Yang grinned the corners of his mouth and said with a smile, "Didn't you say that it would be a year?" What are you anxious about? ”

"But, sir. Is this kind of good thing really going to be returned in a year? General Chen Jiliang shouted anxiously.

Gao Yang smiled and waved his hand, and said, "When have you ever seen me spit out the fat that I ate in my stomach?" Don't worry about these things. For Japan, I have a plan. ”

"Yes, sir!" General Chen Jiliang immediately said with a happy face.

Gao Yang took out a cigarette, lit it, and handed it to General Chen. Rubbing his hair that was tossed by the sea breeze, he said, "What kind of plan is night training?" ”

General Chen Jiliang took the cigarette and lit it, and said, "Sir, the main purpose of night training is to use radar to coordinate artillery salvos. In the past, it was a single ship shooting, but now it is possible to start training in a salvo from the battle line, which can greatly enhance the effectiveness of artillery battles.
