Chapter 1378 707th Armored Brigade
A Y-7 short- and medium-range transport plane landed at Lunan Airport. Apex Update: The fastest 1,200-kilometer modification was modified on an eight-year-old aircraft.
Some improvements in comfort and navigation stability have been made, and the cargo has been changed to a passenger aircraft.
That's right, this is Li Mu's new car, from the tattered Cheetah 2030D to the tattered Y-7, which can be regarded as a big progress.
The reason why he was equipped with a special plane was to take into account that most of the military factories in the southern region were within a radius of 1,000 kilometers from the southern region. His job requires frequent visits to factories and troops, and it is not possible to take civil aviation, and there will be a lot of time wasted on the road, not to mention land transportation, even if it is a high-speed rail, it is not as convenient as a special plane.
And Li Mu's level is not enough to take a special plane, if his level is enough, the comfortable Bombardier business jet can be used for commuting casually. In view of this, a small adaptation was made above, and a special plane was changed on the basis of an old military version of the Y-7.
Although it is not as good as Bombardier, the maximum speed is only more than 500 kilometers per hour, and it is also a propeller engine, but it is better than nothing.
Moreover, this non-civil aviation number uses the second half of the cargo compartment of the Y-7, which is specially numbered 38325, and can still carry vehicles. Su Xiaobing happily named this Y-7 Gray Goose, because it was a gray livery, and the tattered Cheetah 2030D was called a black panther by him, which was a rare black livery.
Therefore, Li Mu, who was going to inspect Bailian today, directly asked Wang Guoqing to drive the tattered Cheetah 2030D into it, and the personnel went to the front cabin to rest.
After the gray goose took off, Li Mu picked up the relevant information and looked through it, Wang Guoqing and Su Xiaobing had a word to say there, and they all revolved around the topic of inspection.
There is an armored unit stationed there in Bailian, and Li Mu wants to go over and have a deep understanding of the expectations of the troops, especially the officers and men at the grassroots level of the troops, for the new generation of main tanks, and at the same time discuss with the unit commander Chen Tashan about the use of main battle tanks in future ground operations.
The 707th Armored Brigade is an ace unit, from a wealthy family, and the brigade commander Chen Tashan is a well-known armored general in the army, and has very rich experience in the use of armored troops. It should be pointed out that during the joint anti-narcotics operation, the reinforced armored unit of the 13th Special Police Detachment commanded by Li Jiujiu was a large battalion led by Chen Tashan.
In other words, Chen Tashan is the only military cadre with actual combat experience among the commanders of armored divisions and brigades so far.
An hour later, the grey goose landed at Bailian Airport.
Chen Tashan only brought two cars to wait there early, in the joint anti-narcotics operation, he was Li Mu's old subordinate, he knew that Li Mu did not like to usher in this kind of pomp, so he did not bring any brigade leaders, he brought a few staff officers over, in addition to his car, he also only brought a camouflage leopard over.
He pinched the time, arrived at Bailian Airport an hour early, and waited for an hour.
After the gray goose stopped, Chen Tashan hurriedly got in the car and went over, and then hurriedly got out of the car to catch up. The gray goose opened the rear hatch, and a tattered black cheetah 2030d came out of it, and then I saw Li Mu and Wang Guoqing talking and stepping on the pedals and getting down.
plus the major who drove a total of three people, the old leader really drove simply.
"Report!"
Chen Tashan's 170-pound body, which looked a little fat, ran over and stood up and saluted, "Report to the chief! Chen Tashan, commander of the 707th Armored Brigade, report to you! Welcome to the chief!"
Li Mu returned the salute, "Take a break." ”
"Yes!"
Chen Tashan hurriedly stepped forward, stretched out his hands, and said with an excited smile, "Old leader, I really didn't expect you to come, I'm very excited." ”
"Lao Chen, don't be so high-grade, we have carried out tasks together, that's all, I'm not an old leader. Li Mu said with a smile.
Chen Tashan said solemnly, "Old leader, one day is your subordinate, and the rest of your life is your subordinate." ”
"You comrade is very good at talking. Li Mu pointed his finger at Chen Tashan, "Let's go, take my car, and talk while walking." ”
"Yes!"
Chen Tashan was very excited, and followed Li Mu to the black panther, Wang Guoqing sat in the co-pilot, and Su Xiaobing drove. Sometimes Su Xiaobing's hands are itchy, so he will swap places with Wang Guoqing and drive a car. The driver of a military vehicle must be a professional and technical soldier, but Su Xiaobing is an officer with a professional certificate, so he can also drive a military vehicle that meets the same requirements as Wang Guoqing.
The staff officers of the 707th Armored Brigade hurriedly got into the car, and Chen Tashan's car was a Pajero, which accelerated to the front to lead the way, and the camouflage leopard followed behind the palace. Three cars roared out of the airfield.
"Old leader, our 707 is the first batch of troops equipped with 99 Tan, and now it is the second batch that is in use, which is the latest 99G in active service. It can be said that we are the most abundant in terms of the experience of using 99 tan. In the car, Chen Tashan introduced the situation.
Li Mu smiled, "Old Chen, don't tell me anything. Your 99 Tan is still the same as the original batch of cars, but all of them were upgraded three years ago and reached the performance level of 99G. ”
"Well, you know enough about the old leader. Chen Tashan was a little embarrassed.
Li Mu said, "Since I want to come over and have a look, I must have done it." I'm telling you, don't come with me, you can report what the actual situation is. ”
"Understand, of course I know the style of the old leader, and there will be absolutely no deception. Old leader, the 707 Brigade is the most experienced unit in the use of 99 Tan, you will not deny this. Chen Tashan said.
Li Mu smiled, "Well, I admit it." Lao Chen, I know your thoughts. Don't you just want to be among the first to refit the new masters? I'm telling you, it's useless for you to grind with me. I am the deputy director of the Equipment R&D and Procurement Committee, but I don't have the authority to decide which unit will equip the new main tank first. ”
was seen through his thoughts, Chen Tashan is also old and not red, and he can't bring good things to those with thin skin, how can he be embarrassed.
There is no doubt that the first batch of units to be remodeled with new main tanks will undoubtedly be a cut above other units in terms of overall level, and this is not only the approval of the higher-level leading organs, but also a very good news for the improvement of the combat effectiveness of the troops.
It has never been heard that second-rate troops will be equipped with new equipment first than first-rate troops.
The 707th Armored Brigade was the first batch of troops equipped with 99 Tan, which was an honor left to Chen Tashan by his predecessors, and he is now sitting in the position of brigade commander, at least to continue this honor, and whether he can make the combat effectiveness of this unit to a higher level, as far as he is concerned, is related to his future.
He is already a cadre at the rank of Grand Calior, and if he goes up, whether it is his rank or position, he is facing a hurdle that most people can't cross, and he obviously doesn't want to mix up to his age, and then retire with a consolation prize (major general).
