"Look, the helicopter has flown away. If the two of them don't stay on the current ship, they won't be able to get back on the original plane. I guarantee that their destination, mine, and yours should be the same. .”
"Same?" Su Qin was a little doubtful.
"We are just returning to Oklahoma City. We need a liaison officer. According to the Navy, we can call a pilot. I don't know if there are any companions who are going to our country."
"The order I got was to come here and be the liaison officer or pilot." Xiao Ning was actually confused, although the order he got was very clear.
However, the specific identities of the parties involved and most of the details were omitted intentionally or unintentionally, probably because they did not want those who handled the communication link to have too many associations.
“I had already boarded an IL-76, but I was not the pilot of that aircraft, so I didn’t know the flight plan, and no one even told me the destination. My people and I were originally tasked with escorting.
The additional order given to me now is to come and maintain contact to ensure that you can keep up with the plane, so our destination must be the same. If you want to return to your country, then I am afraid I will have to go to your country. "
Having said this, Xiao Ning couldn't help but ask another question.
"Let me confirm again. Does your ship need an aerospace force liaison officer and an air liaison device to maintain flight?"
"Yes, that's right." Su Qin didn't have any problem with the order in his hand not being clear. He had traveled too far this time and had a lot to report when he came back.
The communication equipment in his hand still had to be forwarded through a third party. He was really not in the mood and felt that he was not qualified to care about it. He could only think about it hastily and gave a formal reply.
"Okay, they can board the boat first." Su Qin made way to the hatch.
"But before setting off, I will ask my superiors for instructions, if..."
"Of course, of course, Hala Sentinel..." After the problem was solved, Xiao Ning was naturally full of possibilities. Before going to the South Pacific for patrol, Xiao Ning and the Chinese Air Force went through several circles in the sea of the island country during joint training. .
In his opinion, with the current relationship between the two countries, it is really a trivial matter for two soldiers to fly on a plane, except this time it is a flying submarine.
Su Qin was currently leading the way and was not idle. He casually dictated a brief message of request for instructions from the walkie-talkie and asked Zhao Rongguang, the only communication soldier on the boat, to send it out. When he finished speaking, Xiao Ning, who was following him, immediately pointed to the submarine control tower. asked the flashing welding sparks.
"What are you doing? Are you just doing modifications now?"
"Yes." Su Qin replied.
"Our boat lacks intra-atmospheric flight navigation equipment. Now we urgently install a device provided by you. It comes from a high-altitude balloon. Even the hanging basket is ready-made, but a bracket needs to be installed to hang it on the abdomen."
"Abdomen?" Xiao Ning was a little surprised.
"Aren't you going to put it under water?"
"No, we're out of the water."
"Ah?" This answer made Xiao Ning a little unbelievable. He secretly felt that indeed, standing on the deck of the Taishan felt much more stable than just now on the large tugboat next to it.
"Time is running out. It's getting dark soon. We'll set off in two hours at most." Su Qin continued to lead the way.
"Let's eat first. Meals are being served on the boat. There will be no way to cook after takeoff." In fact, it was not impossible. Su Qin just didn't want to waste the power on the boat.
I don't want to shock the world by opening a protective cover to take away the cooling water. Flying without a protective cover will always be a bit bumpy. It is better for the non-professional submariners on the boat not to have too many activities.
"It's time to eat..." Xiao Ning and his two soldiers had both been to China and were familiar with this business. When they heard this, they couldn't help but salivate until they were let into the conference room that served as a restaurant and saw the table. When I was served a stainless steel dinner plate, I realized I had made a mistake.
The food is very simple, but still very delicious.
"Do you need something to drink?" Su Qin is not good at entertaining guests, but he still knows how to warmly welcome guests from Oklahoma City. Ships on long voyages will indeed prepare some miscellaneous things, and there are always one or two bottles of decent wine. of.
"No! It's not necessary." Xiao Ning declined reflexively. Now is not the time to waste combat power on this matter.
His little experience in China is that most people will not drink with you, and people who take the initiative to invite you to drink with you have a terrible drinking capacity.
However, Su Qin actually started eating, and Xiao Ning finally confirmed that he was facing a real combat officer and not a uniformed receptionist.
"If possible, we would have prepared some ourselves."
"Please help yourself, I'm afraid I don't have any decent cups."
Alyosha, the signal soldier brought by Xiao Ning, jumped up and skillfully grabbed three water glasses and placed them on the table in a row. During this time, Xiao Ning and his subordinates became a little bit addicted to drinks.
But when Xi Yan put down the cup, turned around to get the wine and came back, there were four cups on the table.
"Who is this cute girl?" Xiao Ning finally found this mission interesting.
When it was time to eat, the sailors would grab their meals here and then leave. They would find a corner here and there, squat or sit, in twos and threes, chatting and finishing the meal.
Another place called the restaurant is actually first and foremost a conference room, an officer's conference room. Only officers on board the ship can come to eat here.
Usually it's just like having a meeting. Of course, the main reason for eating here is that the tables and chairs are much more comfortable. At least you can straighten your waist and stretch your legs, and the table is wide enough.
Su Qin and the others are here now.
The situation on the Taishan now is really very different from before. If we really follow the previous rules, there is only one person who cannot come to eat here, and that is Zhao Rongguang. The original team that Su Qin brought on the boat has been streamlined. And streamlined.
Except for Zhao Rongguang, all of them were officers, and the same was true for the technical personnel brought by Xiao Song. Their military ranks were only high or not low. Fortunately, most of the people on Xiao Song's side were from the army, and there was no concept of a conference room on a submarine that could be used as a restaurant.
Su Qin looked at the number of people, and of course he would not take the initiative to announce this rule. In this way, it would only happen when the meal has just arrived or is about to end.
Only one or two young Army technical officers sneaked in after confirming that no one was in the conference room to enjoy a "fast food" where they straightened up and stretched their legs and saw all this.
Slowly, the submarine officers on the boat silently looked at their ranks and wanted to meet Su Qin when they had nothing to do.
