Chapter 619: Request to join the army
"Huh? How so, is that what the doctor said? ”
Aurora's words made Long Yun, who was chewing food, stop, his words were a little vague, but they were enough to convey surprise: "I only learned about the latest situation yesterday, Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, wasn't he rescued by a helicopter and sent directly to the hospital, and he didn't suffer any injuries?" ”
"I don't know exactly what happened...... That's what the hospital told us. ”
"Oh,-then,"
Recalling the battle at that time, Long Yun remembered that the wingman White Nineteen Su-27S was hit by a "Patriot" missile, but Dzerzhinsky did not report that he was injured at that time; In the heat of battle, if there is a pilot who fights with injuries, then at least let his comrades know about it, and thinking of this, he feels that Boris Dzerzhinsky's injury should not be caused by the moment when he was shot in the plane.
Since this is the case, he immediately considered that Comrade Lieutenant Colonel should have tried his best to save the plane and chose to eject to escape at the last moment, and then it was most likely because of the large overload of the ejection that caused a fracture of the vertebrae.
Thinking of this, Long Yun temporarily put down the knife and fork, took a handkerchief and wiped his mouth:
"Well, Aurora, I don't think you should be overly worried, didn't the doctor also say, 'It's okay'? I think your father must have been injured when he was ejected and abandoned, although it hurt his spine, but it should be a normal mild compression fracture; Even if you can't fly a fighter fighter into the air in the future, this is not a serious injury after all, so you can relax for the time being. ”
"Well...... I hope so. Thank you, Comrade Major General~"
Sitting at the table in the barracks, it seemed that she had intended to dine with Viktor Rezenov, and Avora Dzerzhinskaya's expression became a little lighter; She looked down at the plate and raised her hand to fill Long Yun's small bowl with thick vegetable soup. When he spoke again, his tone was no longer so nervous and sad:
"Actually, I was worried about my father's injury. But in addition, if he can't fly a plane to fight in the future, it will probably be a difficult thing for him to accept. ”
"Hmm, this one...... Quite right. ”
Completely understanding Aurora's words, Long Yun nodded knowingly.
Lieutenant Colonel Boris Edmondovich Dzerzhinsky, although he was a comrade-in-arms who had only struck alongside him once, was in that stormy, murderous sky battlefield. It was the mutual cover of the two and the courage to kill the enemy that allowed him to achieve the most hearty victory since returning to the front line.
When returning to the Kherson base in the second half of the night, Long Yun hurriedly read the text faxed by the headquarters before falling asleep, and his record of downs in this operation had been identified as ten (one less than his own calculations, and it is normal for some discrepancies); Although after countless battles. Now the number of downs has long become a floating cloud in Long Yun's eyes, but there is no doubt that Lieutenant Colonel Dzerzhinsky has a credit for this.
But now. He returned from the line of fire and picked up a mother-in-law along the way. He was already sitting in the barracks of the base and eating lunch, while the lieutenant colonel was lying on a hospital bed, and it was very likely that he would bid farewell to his military career as a pilot.
For a Red Air Force pilot, it is indeed a very cruel thing to leave the battle position and wave goodbye to the blue sky when the war between the East and the West is in full swing today: when the motherland needs her heroic sons and daughters to fight to the death the most. But he can't work for it, even if the person who does this kind of thing is just a complete coward, I'm afraid the taste in his heart is not good, let alone Dzerzhinsky, a 40-year-old Red Air Force veteran?
Also as a Red Air Force pilot. Long Yun was very sympathetic to this, but he knew that now was not the time to express his feelings, but to persuade the girl in front of him:
"—But, Aurora, don't feel too sorry for your father. After all, the battlefield is not a place of warmth, and it should be a great thing to be able to fight the enemy and return safely, right? As for the rest of the matter, even if your father is no longer able to fly fighter planes for a while, as an experienced and skilled veteran pilot, he can continue to serve the country in the post of political commissar, which is also crucial for us to win this war, what do you say? ”
“…… Well, Rezenov - Comrade, I feel much better to hear you say this. ”
Although he didn't have any special talent for coaxing people, in the face of Aurora, who was worried about his father, Long Yun still tried his best and began to divert the topic in a whimsical way, not only adding fuel and vinegar to the description of the previous stormy battle, but also mixed with a lot of jokes mocking NATO's tactical air force, and soon made the carefree, lively and outgoing little girl laugh again and again.
Of course, when talking about those seemingly gorgeous battles, but in fact they were the line of life and death, Long Yun did not have any contempt for those NATO pilots who also fought hard, but they were still in the blue sky, because he knew very well in his heart that there may indeed be people who can benefit from this war, but those guys with fat brains must be sitting in the luxuriously decorated offices of Wall Street and the Pentagon at this time; As for the front-line soldiers of NATO, although they are the opponents that the Soviet fighters will want to get rid of, they are nothing more than some poor people who are desperately struggling in the great vortex of death.
In such an inexplicable world war, the soldiers who fought to defend the Soviets, and even died heroically, can at least be said to have died without regrets; However, following the unwarranted reason to travel across the ocean and come to Turkey, thousands of miles away, I wonder what those NATO pilots who were mercilessly bombed by him will think of at the last moment of their lives......
After thinking about it for a while, he unconsciously became a little interested, and Long Yun on the seat gradually ended the chatter on his lips, and he continued to bow his head to eat, planning to go to the 224th regiment headquarters after the meal.
He hadn't eaten anything since last night, and he was very hungry and munched on the food in front of him, and was stretching his waist quite comfortably, but he heard Aurola beside him come up with a sentence without a head:
"Comrade Rezenov, you ...... Can you do me a favor? I also want to join the Air Force, I want to fly planes to fight the enemy! ”
"Poof—"
Just drank two sips of black tea, Long Yun almost didn't turn into a watering can, he was choked by his wolf bèi coughed repeatedly, groped the towel handed by the girl and wiped the choked tears,
"I- ahem, I said Aurora, why are you- ahem, to have such thoughts? You're a girl—" (To be continued......)
