"Alas, I was born to work hard!" Lin Jun, who came out of Stalin's office, really wanted to look up to the sky and sigh, "I know how to build a bird!" Isn't it embarrassing for me to go to Leningrad to supervise the construction of a training aircraft carrier! ”

Just now in Stalin's office, Stalin, after listening to Lin Jun's opinion, directly went to several other "bigwigs" of the Central Executive Committee. After a simple negotiation of less than one hour, www.biquge.info decided to first rebuild a training aircraft carrier of about 20,000 tons at the Leningrad Naval Shipyard, and handed over the specific work to Orlov, the commander of the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army.

When Lin Jun thought that he could go back to the Zhukovsky Air Force Academy, Stalin's words completely ended his lazy thoughts: "Andrey, you will assist Commander Orlov as a representative of the Air Force. You also go to Leningrad, and the official appointment letter will be sent to you. This time I want to put on a snack for the first aircraft carrier of the Red Army, and judging by the performance of some time ago, it is most appropriate for you to carry out this task among the comrades of the Air Force. Of course, since it may take a long time and the workload will be larger, you can bring an assistant, and you can decide the candidate. Also, I will temporarily transfer your wife to work at the Leningrad Naval Shipyard as well, so that you don't have to be separated. The house of the Zhukovsky Air Force Academy is also reserved for you, knowing that you kid likes that. ”

Early the next morning, the Kremlin's official appointment letter was delivered to Lin Jun, and there were three copies in total:

1. Appointed Comrade Andrei Nikolayevich Plunyakov as Special Adviser to the Leningrad Naval Shipyard, who participated in the construction of the "new ship" throughout the process and had the right to direct and improve the works. The living conditions during the working period are according to the standards of the chairman of the Party Committee of the Leningrad Naval Shipyard.

2. Comrade XX was appointed as a special adviser to the Leningrad Naval Shipyard to assist Comrade Andrei Nikolayevich Plunyakov in his work. The living conditions during the working period are according to the standards of members of the Party Committee of the Leningrad Naval Shipyard.

3. Appointed Comrade Vatya-Yakhanovna-Vuginskaya as a consultant to the Hospital Affiliated to the Leningrad Naval Shipyard. The living conditions during the working period are according to the standards of members of the Party Committee of the Leningrad Naval Shipyard.

The name on the second appointment letter is empty, which means that Lin Jun has to fill it in by himself. As soon as he received the letter of appointment, Lin Jun filled in the blank space of the letter of appointment with Andlupf's name.

entrusted the house to Arkhipov's care, and the day after receiving the appointment, Lin Jun and his wife, as well as Andrupv, who looked unhappy

Departure to Leningrad.

"I said Comrade Andlupf, don't you want the boss to have a face, okay? Isn't it just that I want little Katya and your wife, can't I give you two days off a week? Then you can come back to see your wife and children, and it's too late to take the train back and forth for four or five hundred kilometers! Even if it's a business trip, it's all reimbursed. I can't help it, I can't do this job, I don't know how to build ships, so I can only discuss it with you, a brother. Originally, I wanted to call Arkhipov, but now people are busy with the rounds, and we can't embarrass people, isn't it 、、、、、、" Lin Jun knows why Andlupf has a bitter melon face, and anyone who leaves his wife and children will be like this for a while.

"Go, stay cool! A full man doesn't know that a hungry man is hungry! "Andrupf in the car is like a wronged child.

"Haha!" His appearance drew a burst of laughter from Lin Jun and his wife, who both knew that Andlupf wasn't really angry, but just a little unaccustomed to it.

Leningrad was founded in 1703 as St. Petersburg and has a history of more than 300 years (for Lin Jun). In 1712, St. Petersburg became the capital of Russia. For more than 200 years, it remained the heart of the Russian Empire. Located on the eastern shore of the Gulf of Finland in the Baltic Sea, at the mouth of the Neva River, it was the second largest city in the Soviet Union, an important industrial center and a transportation hub. The city began in 1703 when Peter the Great built a fortress on Chayats Island at the mouth of the Neva River, which was later expanded into a city called St. Petersburg. In 1712, the capital of Russia was moved here from Moscow, which lasted for more than 200 years. In 1914 it was renamed Petrograd, and in 1924 after Lenin's death it was renamed Leningrad. Dozens of criss-crossing waterways and canals on the Neva River Delta divide the land into nearly 100 small islands, connected by more than 400 bridges, giving St. Petersburg a unique landscape of "water city" and "bridge city". The central city is on the south bank of the Great Neva River, the city's most prosperous Nevsky Prospect (Nevsky Prospect) runs through the city, the seaport, river port and various factories are distributed in the outer Vasilyevsky Island, Petrograd and Vyborg districts, and the former imperial capital of Russia is full of classical Russian buildings and monuments, such as Petropavlovsk Fortress, Winter Palace and Palace Square, Summer Garden and Summer Palace, Navy Headquarters Building, St. Isaac Cathedral, Decembrist Square, Smolny Palace, ......

"Leningrad, I'm coming!"

Orlov had already sent someone to pick up the station at the Leningrad railway station, and directly took Lin Jun and the three to the naval shipyard, and Orlov himself was already there. He is now working with a large group of naval shipbuilding experts on the remodel.

The Leningrad Naval Shipyard was one of the oldest shipyards in the Soviet Union and was second to none in the Soviet Union in terms of shipbuilding technology and equipment, having been able to build ships of 50,000 tons at that time.

This time, the Navy chose a 20,000-ton high-speed ro-ro cargo ship that is 70% complete. The reason for choosing this ship is several aspects: first of all, it was originally on the slipway of the naval shipyard, although it was originally built for civilian freight, but it was designed with the intention of requisitioning the army in the future, so the strength of the design structure is relatively high. And it is designed to reach a speed of 24 knots, which also meets the requirements of the reconstruction. Overall, this high-speed ro-ro cargo ship is the easiest and most suitable option to convert into a training aircraft carrier.

At the first contact meeting after Lin Jun's arrival, Lin Jun directly expressed his attitude: "I'm just a pilot, and I don't know how to build ships, so I won't come to trouble everyone during the construction process." I am just giving some reference to the construction of aircraft carriers from the point of view of our pilots. Our aircraft carrier is built for the purpose of training new carrier-based aviation, and it is hoped that it will be able to learn from the successful construction experience of foreign countries. As our new aircraft is being designed, we hope that the structural strength of the aircraft carrier's flight deck and the height of the hangar will meet the requirements of the new aircraft. I will not say much about other aviation issues, which are better understood by the comrades of the experts than I am, and the comrades of the naval aviation also have a wealth of experience. ”

Of course, Lin Jun can't say more, you must know that for the development and construction of the first aircraft carrier of the Soviet Union, the manpower and material resources invested are huge. The design and construction team gathered a large number of specialists, and the naval aviation also sent special personnel to assist in the construction, and the commander-in-chief of the entire project turned out to be our commander of the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army Navy, Orlov, although only nominal, it can also be seen that the Kremlin attaches great importance to this new ship.

The day after Lin Jun's arrival, Kalinin also came to Leningrad to attend the naming ceremony of the new aircraft carrier the next day, which was named "Belarus". The entire renovation project is expected to be completed in a year and a half.

In the following days, Lin Jun ate and lived in the shipyard every day, and devoted himself to his work. Why is it called eating and living in a factory? He and Vukinskaya's temporary home was in the dormitory area of the factory, and across the door was Andlupf. It turned out that the house arranged by the party committee of the factory for this "Hero of the Soviet Union" was in the city of Leningrad, but Lin Jun refused on the grounds that it was inconvenient to work. Lin Jun chose the current two-bedroom house, which is close to the slipway under construction, and it is convenient for his wife to go to work in the affiliated hospital.

The entire Leningrad Naval Shipyard was mobilized for the new ship, and the workers and technicians on the slipway worked in three shifts day and night. The weather has gradually turned cold, but this has not affected the enthusiasm of the workers, and the whole factory area is in full swing.

Every day, Lin Jun would go to the slipway to "inspect the work", in fact, he couldn't help, but he just liked the atmosphere. Everyone's faces were filled with pride and confidence. The work is very hard and the environment is very noisy, but no matter where Lin Jun is in the slipway, he can feel that high-spirited enthusiasm for work all the time.

Regarding the issue of Andlupf returning home to visit his family, Lin Jun fulfilled his promise and took two days off a week. Later, at the strong request of Comrade Andlupf, a small adjustment was made: every two weeks, it was left for four days in a row. In fact, Lin Jun clearly knows that it is not that Andlupf is lazy, he is fully committed to his work when he is in the factory, and his working hours are far more than 8 hours a day. It should be said that he is the real special adviser, because he takes on most of Lin Jun's work.

In fact, all the personnel involved in the construction of the new ship are selfless work. At the time of the shift change, there were always some people who left the obligation to work for another hour or two, and everyone was contributing to the fact that the Soviets would have their own aircraft carriers one day earlier.

Vuginskaya's work is also very busy. In a large factory with tens of thousands of people, there are always people who get sick or suffer a little injury every day. Moreover, the affiliated hospital is also open to the families of the shipyard staff and nearby residents, coupled with the full capacity of the shipyard, Vuginskaya is also busy enough, which makes Lin Jun feel very sorry for his wife. In fact, when Vukinskaya first arrived at the hospital, the hospital did not arrange a specific job for her at all, and it was also to take care of her. But Vukinskaya couldn't stay idle, and every time there was a surgical operation or outpatient clinic, he would always take the initiative to help, and after a few times, all the staff of the hospital found that the surgical skills of this beautiful and somewhat excessive female doctor were the best in the hospital! In the days that followed, Vukinskaya became the busiest surgeon at the Leningrad Naval Shipyard.

On the October Revolution Day in 1935, Lin Jun returned to Moscow on Stalin's orders to participate in a military parade. This year's Revolution Day parade was the same as it was before, and it should be said that it was a great success: because all the countries of the world still thought that the Soviet Union was advancing in the same way as it had always been.

Stalin, who was almost addicted to awarding medals to Lin Jun, awarded Lin Jun another medal that had just been established. This was the Order of Honor, established by order of the Central Executive Committee on November 25, 1935. It can be awarded to individuals or collectives who have achieved high indicators of creation and production, have made outstanding achievements in scientific research and cultural and sports activities, have technical inventions and creations, and have made meritorious contributions to improving the combat effectiveness of the Soviet Army and strengthening the defense of the Soviet Union. Lin Junhe and the second open-hearth workshop of the Makeev Metallurgical Plant, named after Kirov, were the first collective and individual to receive the Order of Honor. It stands to reason that the medal should be awarded to civilians or non-front-line soldiers, but the reason for the award marked on the certificate for Lin Jun is: there are major technological inventions and creations, which have made great contributions to improving the combat effectiveness of the Soviet army and strengthening the defense of the Soviet Union.

Lin Jun, who had one more medal, returned to Leningrad and still worked according to the original rhythm.

On this day, Lin Jun, who was on the slipway, saw Andlupf running towards him panting. At himself, he said: "Andrey, Vuginskaya fainted while working. ”

"What!" Lin Jun was about to run to the hospital.

Andlupf hugged Lin Jun: "I haven't finished talking yet, other doctors have already checked, it's nothing serious!" It's because your Kaya is pregnant. ”

Lin Jun grabbed the colonel's collar violently, "Say it again!" ”

"What are you staring at me! Your Kaya is pregnant. "Andlupuf feels innocent.

"Hahahaha、、、、、、 I'm going to be a dad, I'm going to be a dad!" Lin Jun was laughing wildly, unaware that the workers and comrades around him were staring at him.

"Quick, go to the hospital!"
