Chapter Twenty-Three: The Commander-in-Chief Arrives
I have to admit it. From the beginning to the end of the "exercise gate," the cadet army planned it so well that there was hardly any mistake. As a result, although Song Yi, who was calculated, was full of unwillingness and resentment, he finally had to choose to compromise and offered to talk to Yang Chuntai about joining the expeditionary force. The 206th Division was integrated into the Expeditionary Force as a whole, and Song Yi had only one condition, that is, from top to bottom, all officers were not allowed to change. He said to Yang Chuntai and others: "As Commander-in-Chief Ouyang said, everywhere you go is fighting devils, and it is okay for our 206th Division to join the expeditionary force." Since the establishment of the 206th Division, more than 7,000 brothers in our division have been training and working hard together, so please take care of our feelings and still let us maintain an independent whole. ”
When Song Yi discussed privately with Du Dehai and others, they thought that it was impossible for the Cadet Army to agree to such conditions, and the best result would be that everyone's titles would remain the same, but they might be transferred to the officers of the Cadet Army. In their opinion, this is not unacceptable either. After all, if the Cadet Army must gain control of the 206th Division, then it is necessary to insert its own people.
The result was beyond their expectations, and Yang Chuntai agreed to their request without frowning: "No problem." As long as you don't violate the military rules and discipline of our cadet army and don't make mistakes of principle, then I can guarantee that no one will be able to move your position. Master Song, come, shake hands. I'm telling you, it won't be long before you realize how right you are today. ”
The "exercise gate" ended happily, and since then, there has been an independent armored first division in the cadet corps sequence. The 206th Division had just been incorporated into the corps, and many people, from officers to soldiers, were dissatisfied. Even those who are closer to the cadets are resentful because they feel that the cadets are too domineering, and they can't help but distance themselves from the cadets.
In this regard, Yang Chuntai and others did not say anything at all, but just continued to do their thing. And because the rearmament has not yet been shipped, the 1st Independent Armored Division is still empty-handed, and it is still training according to its previous habits.
A little more than a month later, the airport was built. That day, Song Yi and others were supervising the training of the soldiers, and the roar of a motor suddenly came from the eastern sky. "Airplane!" Someone exclaimed. Song Yi and the others followed the prestige, first saw a silver dot, then two, and then a group. He and Du Dehai glanced at each other and said, "It's the plane of the Cadet Army." ”
Du Dehai: "I have long heard that the Cadet Army Air Force is very powerful, comparable to the Soviet Union's air force to aid China, but today I should take a good look at it." ”
Vanke: "Division, chief of staff, let's go to the airport too, we are also a member of the Cadet Army now!" ”
Among the senior officers of the former 206th Division, Vanke was the fastest to adapt to the new identity. The reason for this was that Xia Yuhe came to the door to explain the misunderstanding. Knowing that the so-called rival in love was made out of nothing, Vanke, who had experienced great joy and sorrow, cared more about the relationship with Xia Yuhe, and was very friendly to Zhang Honglian, his cousin, which was an outlier among Song Yi and them.
Song Yi thought for a while and said, "Xiao Wan is right, let's go, take a look." ”
The two fighter groups and one bomber group that will be deployed here are the two fighter groups and one bomber group that will be deployed at Liuqiao Airport. Twelve white-sided dolphins landed first, then twelve flying fortresses, and then twelve white-sided dolphins.
Song Yi and the others arrived at the airport just as the bomber group began to land, looking at the huge fuselage of the air fortress, Song Yi and they were all shocked.
"Good boy! How many bombs does this plane have to hold? Tu Chenggang said.
Yang Chuntai and the others went to greet the officers of the expeditionary aviation regiment, and no one noticed Song Yi and them, so they were able to visit and evaluate them wantonly.
During this time, Du Dehai had studied the standard weapons of the Cadet Army, and at this time he played the role of a commentator: "This kind of bomber is called an air fortress, with a bomb load of 10 tons, a ceiling of 13,000 kilometers, and a maximum range of 3,500 kilometers. Those smaller ones are called white-sided dolphins, and they are the most advanced fighters in the world today......"
The commander of the expeditionary aviation regiment is named Zuo Anzhao, a veteran of the Cadet Army Air Force and an ace pilot. He personally flew a white-sided dolphin equipped with an early warning radar in the front, and was the first to land in order to test the reliability of the new airport.
"The performance of the airport is good, Commander Yang, you have worked hard!" After he saw Yang Chuntai and others, he said. Then he looked up and pointed to the several white-sided dolphins that flew over one after another and said, "One of these is piloted by the commander-in-chief, guess which one." ”
Yang Chuntai and the others were taken aback: "What? The commander-in-chief personally piloted the plane? It's too dangerous, isn't it? Zhang Honglian's eyes widened as big as a copper bell, and he loudly expressed his doubts: "Will the commander-in-chief also fly a plane?" ”
Zuo Anzhao smiled and said, "You know too little about the commander-in-chief, in this world, what else does the commander-in-chief not know?" ”
Yang Chuntai and the others looked up at the sky, watched the second and third fighters land in echelons, turned their heads to look at Zuo Anzhao, and saw that his head was still up, and finally couldn't help but be curious, and asked, "Which one is it?" ”
Zuo Anzhao didn't answer, but he heard Zhang Honglian pointing to the dive-ing fighter plane and saying, "This is it, it must be this one!" ”
Zuo Anzhao smiled: "It's this one." ”
Several people stared at each other, all of them looking uncertain. Qiao Sanshan asked Zhang Honglian: "How do you see it?" ”
Zhang Honglian said hehehe: "Look at the co-pilot, under the helmet!" ”
Many of the ** people didn't know what they meant, Zuo Anzhao looked at Zhang Honglian and said in admiration: "Brigade Commander Zhang's eyes are good, you can see Adjutant Pan's hair from such a distance?" Hearing him say this, everyone suddenly realized. And at this moment, the fighter plane piloted by Ouyang Yun had already landed on the ground and began to taxi.
Song Yi and the others have been watching quietly. They suddenly found that a fighter plane was still taxiing, Yang Chuntai and others greeted it, and they were thinking about who would be in the fighter, the fighter stopped, the ground crew put the gangway up, the cockpit of the plane was pushed open, and the two people stood up one after the other. Suddenly, Tu Chenggang shouted, "Female! ”
Pan Meiren took off her helmet, her long hair fluttering in the wind, and immediately became the focus of the audience. Everyone regards her as a female pilot, and in this time and space, female pilots are no less rare than the national treasure panda.
Du Dehai was sighing: "The atmosphere of the cadet army is really open, and it has actually trained female pilots-" A cheer rang out in the distance: "Commander-in-chief!" "Hello Commander-in-Chief!"
They looked over and saw Ouyang Yun take off his helmet and salute everyone.
