Chapter 97 Arriving at the Fist Troop of the Ace Troops - Wang Hai Battalion

Before the military reform, the "Wang Hai Squadron" was affiliated to the 3rd Air Division of the Jinling Military Region.

As one of the seven regions of Xia State, Jinling Military Region

In charge of the relevant affairs of five provinces and one city, namely Nanzhili, Huizhou, Kuaiji, Yuzhang, Minyue and Modu.

The defense zone is across the sea from many countries.

Because this military (harmony) zone guards the southeastern gate of Xia State, its strategic location is very important.

Moreover, the areas under the jurisdiction of the Jinling Military (Harmony) District are among the most economically developed provinces of the Xia Kingdom. If a war really breaks out, these areas will inevitably become the primary and key targets of the enemy's attack.

Especially we must guard against enemies from the sea and the air.

Therefore, the navy and air force under the Jinling Military (Harmony) District are all elite soldiers.

The 3rd Air Division is the most powerful air force in the military (harmony) zone.

It is also the ace unit of the military region's air force.

none of them.

But why is the "Wang Hai Squadron", a unit under the Air Force 3rd Division, stationed in the suburbs of Beijing?

There are two main reasons.

One is that before the military reform, although the air force, navy and second artillery forces of each military region were under a dual leadership system and were under the jurisdiction of the military regions, they were also subject to their direct departments (Air Force Command, Navy Command, and Second Artillery Command).

Moreover, because the navy, air force and second artillery forces are all technical arms, they were almost all managed by directly affiliated departments and assisted by various military regions before the military reform.

The whole country is like a chessboard.

Therefore, the air force units of each military region would receive orders from the Air Force Command from time to time to transfer their jurisdiction across military regions.

For example, a certain air force unit belongs to the Chengdu Military Region, but with a single order from the Air Force Command, the unit can be transferred from the Chengdu Military Region's defense zone to other military regions for garrison.

The second is that the Air Force is different from the Army.

A very vast sky is needed for troop training, patrolling and garrisoning.

In order to adapt to training tasks in various complex environments, the main forces often have two or even more stations and conduct large-scale transfer training every year.

Only in this way can the combat effectiveness and actual combat capability of the Air Force be effectively improved.

Wait until after the military reform in 2016.

The military region was changed to a war zone.

The authority of the theater command was further strengthened.

The command of the navy, air force and rocket force of each theater command will all be returned to the theater command, while the headquarters of each service will be changed from being in charge to being in assisting control.

However, even after the military reform, the various air force units still conduct large-scale transition training every year.

Maintain the force's adaptability in a variety of environments.

As the fist force of the Jinling Military Region's ace force, the 3rd Air Division, the 'Wang Hai Squadron' is stationed at the Wuhu Wanli Airport, which is only a hundred kilometers away from Jinling, for more than two-thirds of the time every year.

However, the brigade also has the responsibility of protecting the capital.

So the remaining one-third of the time will be transferred to Baoding Dingxing Airport.

After all, the brigade is equipped with the most advanced fighter jets in the Republic.

Good steel is used on the blade.

Accompanied by the roar of fighter jet engines, the bus finally arrived at the gate of a barracks.

Chen Shanhe got off the car in person and handed over his ID, letter of introduction and other relevant documents to the guard on duty.

The guard called to verify the identity and then got on the bus to count the number of people.

After confirming it is correct.

Only then did they open the gate to let people pass.

Fu Shiyu was amazed. "I didn't expect the defense to be so strict. Instructor Chen is a colonel, but they actually asked him to go down in person to submit the information."

"This is a military camp, not an ordinary citizen's home, so of course it is heavily guarded." Jiang Chen replied in a low voice.

The two people were talking.

While looking out the window.

In the distance, a series of silver-gray fighter planes have taken off into the sky one after another.

The huge roar of the plane kept echoing, shaking even the eardrums a little bit.

And close by.

There are rows of low and simple buildings, roads leading to all directions, and low saplings on both sides of the roads.

The word 'airport' doesn't fit at all.

But as the bus drove out of the construction area, the long runway and the apron in the distance suddenly caught people's eyes.

Especially the fighter planes preparing to taxi and take off on the runway are a feast for the eyes.

Even on the hills in the distance, you can see radar and weather stations.

Even though Jiang Chen is "well-informed", he still feels that his eyes are not enough.

After all, no matter how "informed" he is, this is the first time in his two lifetimes that he has entered a real military airport.

How could it not feel fresh?

At this moment.

The bus slowly stopped in front of a plain-looking building.

And on the stone stairs in front of the building, there were already several people standing there waiting.

Seeing the bus stop, these people immediately came over.

The bus door opened and Chen Shanhe got off first.

The leading lieutenant colonel punched Chen Shanhe in the chest first, then laughed and said, "Old classmate, it's been a few years since we last met. Wow, you're a colonel now? Should I call you 'chief' then?"

Chen Shanhe had a stern face.

He deliberately said, "So you committed the crime of insubordination. What crime should I hold you responsible for?"

He waved his hand and shouted, "Come on, take this guy away and put him in solitary confinement for a few days."

"Go to hell." The lieutenant colonel laughed. "I'll give you some face, but you're planning to open a dyeing factory, right?"

Done.

The lieutenant colonel immediately introduced to the people around him, "Come, let me introduce you to this guy, the director of the Aviation Recruitment Bureau, Senior Colonel Chen Shanhe. Even though he looks sickly now, he was a well-known 'workaholic' back then."

The officers quickly saluted Chen Shanhe.

They and Chen Shanhe were not classmates, so they had to follow the rules in front of a big colonel.

Jiang Chen and the others leaned against the car window, watching these people chatting with curiosity.

Chen Shanhe chatted nonsense with the lieutenant colonel for a while longer.

Then he turned his head to look at the bus compartment and scolded with a smile, "What are you still standing there for, you little brats? Why don't you get off quickly?"

Done.

He seemed to remember something again.

He touched his short hair and added, "Haha, I was wrong again, it should be the bad boy and the pretty girl."

Jiang Chen and the others had already gotten out of the car by this time.

After this period of "military training", they finally understood some rules.

After the ten people got off the bus, they immediately stood in a row.

The lieutenant colonel first looked at them curiously, and then asked, "Are these the top ten candidates in this year's selection? Oh, there's actually a pretty little girl. Is our Air Force really going to have a female fighter pilot?"

Chen Shanhe ignored him.

Instead, he said to Jiang Chen and the others, "The person standing in front of you is the famous captain of the 'Wang Hai Squadron', Lieutenant Colonel Wang Zhihe. Captain Wang is very busy, but today he was able to take time out of his busy schedule to accompany you in person. You are so lucky. Why don't you thank Captain Wang?"

Captain Wang quickly waved his hands and said, "Don't scare the children. I'm busy with these trivial things every day. How can it be as exaggerated as you say?"

Done.

He stretched out his hand and said to Jiang Chen and the others, "Don't just stand there, go in first. After you visit the War History Memorial Hall of the Wang Hai Battalion, I will take you to visit other places."
