Training base, small airport, apron number one.
A light black painted twin-engine propeller Y-12D light multi-purpose transport aircraft was parked quietly on the No. 1 apron. Next to it, stood a row of fully armed student pilots, carrying heavy yellow-green parachute bags. Wearing helmets and windproof glasses, after a series of perfect preparations, there were a total of thirteen people.
Zhou Hai, wearing a training uniform, stood quietly at the end of the team, paying no attention to the doubtful and puzzling junior pilot students next to him.
Although, Zhou Hai could feel the attitude, confusion and hostility of the junior pilot students around him.
No way, he occupied a skydiving spot.
Right in front of the team stood Tan Gang and a trainer, both of whom were also carrying parachute bags and fully armed. Next to them were a senior leader of the base and several military officers.
"Dear students, first of all, congratulations to you. After a month of hard training, you have passed the strict ground elimination assessment and are now standing here, becoming the best among your peers."
Tang Qingling, the senior leader of the base, who was wearing summer uniform and carrying the rank of colonel on his shoulders, scanned the crowd with sharp eyes and said sternly: "Next, you will face a real actual battle. High jumps and low test subjects will be used to test you for a month. With the results of my past studies, I hope you can get off to a winning start and win the first battle."
The voice was slightly hoarse and steady, with a faint aura of vicissitudes of life.
The twelve junior pilot students standing here are undoubtedly the best among the entire junior class. Their excellent ground assessment scores are at the forefront, which is very outstanding.
Except Zhou Hai who jumped in line.
For high jump and low jump subjects, the general training content is to jump from a height of 2,000 meters, do not open the parachute immediately, quickly descend to a height to reduce the time in the air, lower the parachute to a height of 800 meters, and then accurately land in the designated area.
At this moment, after hearing the words of Tang Qingling from the base, all the flight students puffed up their chests, with solemn faces and sharp eyes, quietly waiting for the next rigorous actual combat.
Everything is speechless, all in the assessment.
"Now, I order, board the plane!"
After finishing his brief speech, Tang Qingling stood with his hands behind his back, scanned the crowd with his bright eyes, and issued an order in a short and powerful voice: "I'm here waiting for you to come back."
Get on board!
As the order was issued, everyone who was already ready, led by Tan Gang and another instructor, opened the cabin door, quietly and orderly entered the Y-12 light multi-purpose transport aircraft, and sat down one after another.
"Zhou Hai, remember, high jump and low jump subjects are more difficult. If you really can't do it, you can open the parachute immediately after leaving the plane. Don't force it." When queuing up to board the plane, Tan Gang looked serious and warned Zhou Hai: " This is your first actual skydiving, so be careful."
Jumping high and flying low is a huge test for students' skydiving training performance and psychological quality.
Generally speaking, students who are doing actual skydiving for the first time will take the least difficult 800-meter skydiving course instead of the more difficult high jump and low jump subjects.
But now, the junior pilot student course has reached the high jump and low start stage. The training base is equipped with a total of two latest Y-12 transport aircraft, and one Y-12 transport aircraft is currently in maintenance status, and the other one can fly normally. .
However, Tan Gang had no right to interfere with the normal training of the third-year students and arranged for the base's last Y-12 to conduct independent training against Zhou Hai.
The special training time is only fifteen days.
Who knows how long it will take for the other Y-12 to be repaired, but Tan Gang can't afford to wait.
Fortunately, Zhou Hai has top marks in ground training and has received skydiving training of various difficulties. He scored full marks in the 2,000-meter high jump and low jump, which relieved Tan Gang's many worries.
In actual skydiving, you must be careful and steady.
"Understood." Zhou Hai nodded seriously when he heard Tan Gang's words, with a serious face.
Get in line and board the plane.
After all the flight students and instructors participating in the assessment enter the cargo hold, the two pilots on standby in the cockpit ignite the engines, supply high-performance fuel output, and activate the two aviation turboprop engines on the left and right wings.
"Buzz!"
The three-blade propeller accelerated from slow to fast, making a huge sound that resounded around and filled the entire cabin.
The two pilots and co-pilots, who acted according to the predetermined procedures, held the controller tightly and controlled the military green-painted Y-12 transport aircraft underneath them to smoothly drive out of the No. 1 apron and enter the taxiway.
"Brother, my name is Lu Chunguang. What grade are you in? Why haven't I seen you?"
Staying in the slightly bumpy and loud cabin, Lu Chunguang, a junior flight student sitting on Zhou Hai's right, shouted loudly, raising doubts that had been building up in his heart for a long time.
Confuse!
Regarding Zhou Hai, every junior pilot trainee stationed at the Hai Province base is full of doubts, and they can't guess the relevant identity despite racking their brains.
On the day when the practical assessment was scheduled, Zhou Hai, a mysterious student, suddenly occupied a skydiving spot for a junior student and boarded the plane.
As a result, everyone was even more confused, and some people were even more dissatisfied.
Why does this guy who just came to the training base occupy a skydiving quota? !
In the cabin, as Lu Chunguang raised questions, many students sitting around them all turned their attention.
At the same time, Tan Gang also cast a meaningful look over.
"Classmate Lu Chunguang, you need to remember the second article of the confidentiality regulations and the second article of the brief confidentiality code." After hearing the question raised by Lu Chunguang, he noticed Tan Gang's eyes from the corner of his eye. Zhou Hai, who closed his eyes to rest, smiled. He smiled and replied: "If you don't remember, you will be punished."
Confidentiality regulations? !
A brief code of confidentiality? !
"Gulu!"
Hearing Zhou Hai's answer, Lu Chunguang was stunned, his heart trembled, and he suddenly woke up. He couldn't help swallowing his throat, and a cold sweat broke out all over his body, and he suddenly remembered his identity.
Article 2 of the Regulations on Secrecy of the Chinese People’s Army——
Military secrets are related to national military interests and are determined in accordance with prescribed authority and procedures, and are limited to a certain range of personnel within a certain period of time.
Military secrets are an important part of state secrets.
Article 2 of the Brief Code of Confidentiality - Don’t ask about secrets that you shouldn’t ask!
"I understand, I'm sorry." Lu Chunguang was still frightened, thinking about his status as a soldier, and quickly thanked Zhou Hai.
Fortunately, this strange young man did not reveal the truth and reminded him that he was in big trouble.
The lightest punishment must be a serious warning.
In the entire cabin, the same was true for other junior flight students. Their inner doubts and dissatisfaction disappeared, and they did not dare to continue to delve deeper into Zhou Hai's identity.
dissatisfied?
If you hit the bottom line, you don’t even have the right to be dissatisfied.
"fine."
Zhou Hai shook his head, indicating that it was okay, closed his eyes, and rested quietly.
