At the air base in the southern suburbs of the capital, after receiving a comprehensive health examination and flight aptitude assessment, Viktor Rezenov, who had been away from the front line for a long time, was allowed to fly the Su-27S fighter jet, returning to the blue sky in such an unexpected way, and at the same time officially began another Central Asian survey trip.

After waking up and saying goodbye to Lyudmila in a hurry, Long Yun, who is now sitting in the cockpit of the Su-27 fighter, is full of energy and accurate control, but in fact, he is a little confused.

Suddenly traveled to a parallel world, and his current situation is probably not a little bit unstated.

Speaking of which, whether it is the recuperation life in the parallel world or the crossfire line in the real world, these actions have nothing to do with piloting a fighter plane, and he is still a little rusty after not touching the joystick for many days; This kind of appearance is normal for a pilot who needs to maintain good condition, and even so, his proficiency in flying the Su-27 fighter is far better than that of the average pilot in the average unit.

Compared with the trivial matter of piloting a fighter plane, the upcoming investigation occupies Long Yun's thinking space more.

From the capital Moscow to a small town in the desert of Central Asia, there was nothing unusual on the way, and when the two IL-76 transport planes accompanied by Su-27S deviated from the scheduled plan in the second half of the route, turned to the direction of Aralsk with another escort fighter, and left the formation to fly east alone, Long Yun, turned off the GCI guidance system and switched to radio silent flight using the fighter navigation system that he had just familiarized with the operation.

The Su-27S he piloted came from the 541st Fighter Aviation Regiment of the Fourth Air Force of VVS, and was equipped with a very fashionable "Glonass" satellite navigation system. Under the operation of this system. The flight of the early 2,000 kilometers went smoothly. The Sukhoi fighters, who had traveled for a long distance, landed accurately on the runway of the airport outside the city of Kalsacai at noon.

Satellite navigation systems, such things have long been known in the real world, even mobile phones and bicycles, but in the parallel world of the 1990s, it was still a new thing.

The so-called GPS (Global_Positioning_System, Satellite Navigation System), a positioning technology that receives timing signals from low-orbit satellites and calculates distance information based on the time difference, can be used to conduct high-precision navigation for fighters, but in previous combat careers. Probably because it is indeed lagging behind the West in technology, the MiG-29, Su-27 and other fighters piloted by Long Yun are not equipped with this kind of thing, and he has not deliberately paid attention to it. Now, with the green Yingying on the display screen indicating that he flew all the way east, he found that this set of navigation modules based on the "Glonass" positioning system is quite easy to use, and the accuracy is not to be talked about for the time being -- for aircraft navigation, even the "bad" signal of less than 10 meters can meet the needs, at least during the three-hour flight without any problems, which shows that it can still meet the requirements of military platforms.

In this way, the "Glonass" positioning system in the real world was delayed and almost stillborn because of the collapse of the Soviet Union. It has been put into operation in a parallel world, which is an important aspect that is different from reality. It is clear that the Soviet empire in the parallel world has eased relations with the West, but it has not relaxed its efforts in high-tech research and development at all.

In this regard, Long Yun knows that the enemy in front of him, NATO, has already applied satellite navigation technology on a large scale, so at least in this regard, the Red Empire's technological catch-up pace is not slow.

Flying the plane to land in the Kalsaks, leaving the airport as the "National Security Council" and heading to the scheduled military base, Long Yun did not rush to receive the equipment and immediately set off for the "dead city", but went to the place where he stayed before the last departure, found the head of the KGB liaison here, and prepared to make the necessary preparations in this military base, and then embarked on an investigation journey with an uncertain future.

Compared with the last rush action, this time Long Yun's prior arrangements were much more detailed.

After the previous adventure in the "Dead City", now that we have a good understanding of the situation in that abandoned area, and have also clarified the purpose and motivation of the second investigation, with the assistance of the staff of the "General Directorate of Rome", the materials including off-road trucks, tools and equipment, and supplies have been airlifted to the Kalsack faction in advance.

On the other hand, the KGB also delegated complete operational autonomy to Viktor Rezenov for the specific actions of this investigation, and it seems that everyone, including the "General Directorate of Rome", regarded this super-ace with a strong sense of mystery as the only hope of solving the mystery of the "dead city" - of course, if the general secretary Konstantin Malenkov had greeted the KGB side, Long Yun would not have been surprised at all.

"Ah, this time I'm going to ask you again, Comrade Zakharov."

On the evening of the day he arrived in the desert town, accompanied by KGB agent Ivan Zakharov, he inspected the MAZ-543 modified truck that had arrived at the base, beckoned the soldiers in the base to load the supplies, such as tools, fuel, fresh water, and emergency food, into the truck, and sat down to eat with Zakharov, who had worked with him before, in the small restaurant of this remote base, and Long Yun politely accosted the agent.

When he spoke, his mouth was not idle for a moment, Long Yun still liked the food here, and now he was eating a lot.

After all, after a night's rest in the base, he will leave early tomorrow morning, and not only will his future be uncertain, but he will only be able to feed himself on field rations, and he will certainly not be able to eat fresh foods such as beet soup, roasted cured meats, and carrot pies.

However, there are always two sides to everything, fortunately, the area around the "dead city" is only completely forbidden to electronic and electrical equipment, and if he can't even use chemical energy, he will not only be unable to drive a modified MAZ-543 off-road vehicle, maybe he can't even eat self-heating rations, but can only nibble on compressed biscuits to satisfy his hunger:

"We didn't find many valuable clues in the last investigation, and we hope we can gain something this time."

"Yes, Comrade Major General; But you have to be careful. ”

Viktor Rezenov, who had just been promoted to lieutenant general of the VVS Air Corps in the line of fire, was obviously not aware of the KGB agent in a remote place, and he still used the word "major general" to address the ace pilot in front of him, with sincere concern in his words.

During the last investigation of the "Rome" base, he was in charge of escorting Victor to the vicinity of the "Dead City", and after that, because Long Yun chased the fleeing American pilot all the way and left and did not return from the direction of the Kalsack faction, the two did not meet again, but only got in touch by phone. But now, seeing that the legendary Major General of the Aviation Corps has come to the base again, according to the instructions from above, this super combat hero in the Great War has come to investigate the "Rome" base, Ivan Zakharov, in addition to doubts, also admires this young man with great achievements.

Isn't it, as a high-ranking officer of the Red Army, an ace pilot who kills the enemy, but still has to come here to carry out extremely dangerous secret missions, approaching and even entering the "dead city" that makes people talk about - this kind of thing, no one has been able to do it for many years, but the young man in front of him can, probably this can only be attributed to the committee's years of superpower research results, so that they have finally found a suitable person who can get a glimpse of the secrets of the "dead city"?

Hey, anyway, Zakharov feels very motivated to work with such a heroic figure, even if it's just to do some preparatory work.

Reminding Viktor Rezenov to be cautious, the agent saw that there was no one on the left and right, and lowered his voice to tell him:

"Comrade Rezenov, it's not too early at the moment, please rest early, we'd better leave before the early hours of tomorrow morning; The above instructions for action, because of the recent spies against you, we want to be foolproof, and when I was checking the equipment in the garage before, I deliberately mentioned 'leaving tomorrow morning', it was just a smokescreen.

Of course, how you decide depends on your own schedule. ”

"Oh-yes, it's good to be cautious."

Hearing the agent's meticulous arrangement, thinking about the fact that even in the base in the hinterland of Central Asia, you can't let your guard down, and the KGB's style of doing things is like this, which Long Yun can fully understand.

Because he has superpowers, when he checked the equipment in the afternoon, he sifted through all the people involved in the base by the way, and he didn't find any Western spies here, but it's always right to be cautious: leaking secrets is sometimes not intentional by the person involved, and it's also possible:

"Then it will be arranged, Comrade Zakharov, you should also rest a little earlier, and as for the time, it will be set at about four o'clock tomorrow morning."

After dinner with KGB agents, and a few laps around the base at nightfall and the temperature plummeted, Zakharov was ready to go to the garage with his bed, and he simply planned to sleep overnight on the well-loaded MAZ-543 off-road truck in case someone sabotaged it.

Of course, Long Yun recognized the conscientious professionalism of the detectives, but when he arrived at the Kalsack faction, he was taught the cold wind here, and the inland climate of Central Asia in early winter was already very cold and dry, and he knew that it was not feasible to persuade Ivan Zakharov to abandon this plan, and to be honest, he could not completely guarantee that there would not be a single ill-intentioned person in the entire base, so he checked the surveillance sensors inside and outside the garage with the detectives, and went to call him a thermos pot of hot water, Then he was escorted by the soldiers on duty to the barracks and rested in the well-guarded rooms on the second floor.
