Chapter 567: Military Parade on
October 1, 1950, Moon, Space Force 1st Fighter Wing Base.
Early in the morning, 40 pilots dressed in combat uniforms stepped onto the parallel maglev elevator leading to the No. 3 berth, and the first two were Major Zhan Feiyun, the captain of the First Fighter Wing, and Wang Han, the pilot.
Twenty pilots, twenty weapons controllers.
"Whoa."
Zhan Feiyun took out a photo from his pocket and handed it to Wang Han, on it was a very delicate and beautiful girl, holding two books, smiling shyly at the camera.
"Team, what is this?"
Wang Han's tense face opened slightly, and he wondered.
"Your sister-in-law, my fiancΓ©e, how is it, pretty."
Zhan Feiyun retrieved the photo, pointed to a place on the photo and said, "The top students of the Imperial University are very quiet and knowledgeable. Don't look at me as a major in the Space Force, she is not simple, she is studying cosmic biology. β
"It's beautiful, congratulations to the team."
Wang Han said with a sincere smile that after coming here for more than a month, he already knew that he would be selected for a team of 20 people to participate in the fighter flight show of the Space Force military parade.
For more than a month, he has been tense himself, training in the best condition, almost every day with the exhibition team, this major and senior officer of the Space Force, takes care of himself very much.
"What about you? Do you have a girlfriend? β
"Me? Some. β
Wang Han smiled wryly, and then embarrassedly took out a photo and handed it to Zhan Feiyun to see.
"Yo, black hair, long legs, this is what kind of black long straight beauty is popular on the Internet now. You're a good kid, blessed, what are you doing? β
Zhan Feiyun was also very happy to see that his subordinates had a good girlfriend.
"A nurse in the 24th Army, whom I met when the troops were vaccinated. At that time, she had just arrived, and something went wrong, so we met. β
Wang Han couldn't help but think of the injection, his girlfriend Shi Huayu was very nervous, and mistakenly took the anesthetic injection as a preventive injection for herself......
"Yes, that's fate.
You, don't keep your face tense all day long, don't be so nervous, this is a show for the people of the motherland, not a war, there is no struggle between life and death, as long as we do our best, we will definitely be able to do a good job, and give a wonderful flight to the chairman and the people of the motherland. β
Zhan Feiyun patted him on the shoulder heavily, telling him to relax.
From time to time, the group came to the No. 3 berth, where a space carrier converted from a high-speed transport ship was parked, and they were all conducting regular training through this space carrier before the fleet was officially organized.
After boarding, everyone entered the cabin of the fighter, and the battleship began to take off.
"Wow~"
The shipboard television station was turned on, and the preparations for the parade on the Earth were being shown on the screen.
β¦β¦
Early in the morning, Zhang Shusheng got up, took his three wives and Luoyu to board a small spaceship, and flew to the place where the parade was held.
This time, he decided to make a difference, both grand and new, but also to make the people feel the power of the empire, so the whole process was mostly conceived by him and his three wives.
On the spacecraft, Mao Yunxian, who set off on the same ship, was reporting the latest summary of the situation to Zhang Shusheng.
"Chairman of the National Committee, the 9,999 spectators who were invited to watch the parade this time are all ready and will immediately set off on a spaceship to the parade airspace.
The weather in the parade airspace was also well controlled, and the artificial method of driving away the clouds was very effective.
All the ships and warplanes participating in the parade have all been prepared......
Mao Yun first talked about the final preparations for the parade, and briefly introduced it to Zhang Shusheng.
The speed of the spacecraft was very fast, and from time to time it came to the airspace of the military parade, 300 nautical miles west of the island of Taiwan, a hollow area 2,000 meters above sea level.
"Be careful, you see, it's too majestic."
Through the porthole, several people saw a behemoth-like suspended body in the distance.
A black pressure like a floating mountain floated in the air at a height of 2,000 meters in front of it, and if you looked closely, it was actually a battleship.
"A total of four transport ships were used on the parade platform, and an air platform with an area of nearly 20 square kilometers was built, realizing the combined utilization of transport ships......"
In the distance, a huge platform of four transport ships was quietly suspended there, and the four warships did not start their main engines, but relied on the anti-gravity devices of the four ships in one to provide levitation capabilities.
In the interstellar era, it is difficult for transport ships to participate in battles as non-combat ships in peacetime, but only in landing battles, they are designed as a very temporary tool, a combination platform.
Transport ships do not pursue high speed, but also pursue the surname-to-price ratio and capacity, and the shape is flat and streamlined, not as hideous as combat ships, and the appearance also looks smoother.
The surface of the general warship is often a combined module, which can be freely deformed, and the top of this kind of transport ship is designed as a platform that can be combined.
Aircraft-carrying carriers and large warships often dare not get too close, so reaching the forward platform with a few or a dozen less noticeable transport ships can often play an unexpected role.
Of course, this kind of combined platform can often be used on planets with harsh conditions, such as planets with very high jungle cover, or completely aqueous planets. Such multiple transport ships, once deployed, are a platform base.
The regular military parade, the ground force parade of the Space Force, and the viewing part of this military parade were held on this big platform.
Zhang Shusheng's spaceship did not land, and in addition to the tens of thousands of seats and soldiers on duty on the parade platform, other spectators had not yet arrived.
"In half an hour, the audience is coming."
At the same time, the audience at the parade site gathered at the Hanjing spaceport finally received a notice to board the ship.
ββ¦β¦ Please board the plane in an orderly manner, the spacecraft is about to sail to the parade airspace......"
Hearing the clear announcement from the spaceport radio, Malaifu moved his prosthetic leg, but felt still a little inconvenient, so he had to sit in a wheelchair and be pushed by a soldier to board the plane.
"Senior, just sit down."
"Thank you, thank you."
Ma Laifu joined the army in 1923 in northern Guangxi, when he was herding cattle on the road, he was so hungry, the cows ate grass, he ate starchy grass roots, and the army asked him to lead the way, so he joined the army.
From the battlefield on the southwest border to the battlefield in Southeast Asia, he grew up in the mountains, was good at mountain warfare, and made many meritorious contributions in the past ten years, and finally retired with second-class merit, and was treated at the battalion level when he was discharged, because after he strayed into a minefield, he saved a squad with two legs as a price.
In a blink of an eye, he is also fifty years old, and he did not participate in the first two large-scale military parades for various reasons, and he has always regretted it, but he didn't expect to receive an invitation again this time.
When I came to Hanjing, I learned that more than half of the audience at this military parade were veterans, the other half were active soldiers, and the rest were outstanding talents from all walks of life, and there was not even a foreign guest or protocol.
For these 9,999 spectators, the state not only took good care of them, but also gave special care to these people with disabilities and physical disabilities, and they were accompanied throughout the process.
"It's the first time in my life to fly in a spaceship......
Seeing the mountain-tall passenger spaceship, Ma Laifu cried all over the place, remembering when he was a soldier, a bullet and a cannonball were very expensive, and now, the empire actually has such a huge flying spaceship.
He didn't know the true power of this spacecraft, but after reading a lot of relevant reports, he also knew that it could fly into space, far more advanced than he imagined.
A transport ship with a length of more than 1,700 meters, which is taller than the mountain against which his family rests.
"Times are different, and it will be the children's world in the future."
Looking at the little soldier pushing him next to him, who was only seventeen or eighteen years old, thinking about his son who was going to military school, he was extremely proud.
My son wrote to him that he wanted to sign up for the Space Force, and he approved.
On the spaceship, Malaifu felt very comfortable, much more comfortable than on a plane, only a slight movement during takeoff, and there were even waitresses in the huge cabin.
Because it was flying in the atmosphere, the speed of the spacecraft was not fast, and fifteen minutes later it came to the parade area.
The spacecraft stopped directly on the parade platform, the hatch opened, and the 9,999 spectators couldn't help but exclaim as they walked down the wide and huge gangway.
"This, this is in the air!!"
"Oh my God, it's completely suspended and still."
"It's like a floating island of steel......"
β¦β¦
Everyone is exclaiming, not everyone can be like Zhang Shusheng, even if there is no real spaceship in the future, but they have also seen this huge floating platform in science fiction works, and now these veterans, elites from all walks of life are naturally shocked when they see it.
The extremely wide steel parade square, the mighty officers and soldiers in black combat uniforms of the Space Force, a faint light curtain shrouded this huge steel platform, although everyone was in the air of more than 2,000 meters, they could not feel the obvious wind and cold, but warm.
"The Empire's technology has advanced to such an advanced point, alas, compared to our time, it can't be said the same."
"Yes, we had a car to sit in when we were marching and fighting, and it was a good treatment, which is like now, it is completely incomprehensible high-tech."
"It's really good luck this time, it's the right time, the previous military parades were held in the Imperial Square, but this time it was actually held in the floating square, which is so exciting."
In an hour, 9,999 spectators were easily seated under the guidance of the staff, and the lifting seats that come with the platform are a little simpler, but they are still good to spread blankets.
Soon, a person came out of the rostrum, Premier Zhou Guolai, in the sky, a small spaceship was also slowly descending, reporters from all kinds of media across the country were also ready, long guns and short guns aimed at the scene, hundreds of millions of viewers across the country were sitting in front of the TV, ready to watch this prosperous military parade, the earth's own warship parade, the empire's first warship military parade.
