Great warships

Chapter 991 Breaking the Window Paper

Qiongzhou is not very big to begin with, so the Navy did not build a naval aviation base specifically next to the military port, and the original naval aviation base was not far from the military port.

In order to accommodate the aircraft carrier-based aircraft, the entire Lingshui base has been expanded again. The aircraft carrier can carry more than 80 carrier-based aircraft, which means that more than 80 new hangars are needed, as well as maintenance sites and warehouses. Provide food and accommodation for the extra people.

Therefore, the base was almost doubled in size, and four new buildings were built to accommodate these personnel.

Haipan landed first, and the leadership of the aviation base was already waiting below. Although it was not far from the naval port, they had to be greeted separately.

Tang Yiping had a smile on his face. Their base had briefly accommodated Air Police-500s before, but they were not included in their base's establishment. Now, these sea dishes actually belong to their navy, how could he be unhappy.

The planes slid down one by one, and then slid directly into the hangar. Even Haipan had a special hangar. When the planes were parked, the pilots got off and lined up.

"Everyone, welcome." Looking at the neatly arranged pilots, Tang Yiping was very happy: "On behalf of the Lingshui Base, I welcome you. From now on, you are members of our base, and we are a family."

"Report."

Before Tang Yiping finished speaking, he saw Delano raising his hand. Of course he knew Delano's reputation and immediately said: "Comrade Xiang De, please speak."

"Is there a beach near here?"

"Of course there is."

"So, can we go there and play beach volleyball?"

Xiang Jing looked at Delano curiously. You are new here. Shouldn't you first go see where the dormitory is, where the canteen is, and familiarize yourself with the environment?Are you going to play beach volleyball now?
"Of course." Tang Yiping said: "I will send engineers to arrange it for you. In 15 minutes, you can go over to play volleyball, but are you sure you want to go now?"

"Yes, now." Delano said, "I haven't played beach volleyball for a long time. As long as we pilots land and complete the mission, the rest of the time belongs to us."

What is the base?The base is their home. Now that they are home, of course they have to relax.

"it is good."

The order Tang Yiping received was to coordinate the lives of these pilots and try to meet their requirements. The accommodation and canteens were of the highest standard. Of course, these entertainment activities must also be provided. After all, this is not a big city in Qiongzhou, so these people are inevitable Will be lonely.

Subsequent planes landed one after another, and Tang Yiping went to greet the second and third batch of planes.

When all the planes landed, Wang Wei was the last one to land. After he got off the plane, he asked, "What are the two groups in front of you?"

"The second wave of people went to the dormitory to clean up housekeeping, and the first wave of people went to the beach."

"What are they going to the beach for?" Wang Wei frowned.

"Play volleyball."

Wang Wei was taken aback.

Once upon a time, Wang Wei walked out of the Lingshui base, but now he is back. He is very excited. He originally planned to have a good tour of the base.

While waiting for landing in the air, he had already seen the big changes in the base. For example, there were more hangars in the base. He also saw some huge hangars. If nothing unexpected, the H-[-]K should be parked inside. , this advanced bomber is already the main force of long-range bombing by naval aviation.

He also planned to chat with the pilots of these bombers to discuss future cooperation tactics, but now, he could only go to the beach to take a look.

Needless to say, it must have been Delano who was responsible. This guy never follows any rules.

It would be a problem if Delano suddenly became honest one day.

However, he didn't know that a large number of leaders from the navy were coming.

After the aircraft carrier commissioning ceremony was over, Wu Shengli and others took a bus to Lingshui Airport to see the naval aviation personnel.

After all, the power of an aircraft carrier must be reflected by carrier-based aircraft. These dancers on the tip of the knife are the embodiment of the strength of the navy's aircraft carrier. When these carrier-based aircraft pilots land, they must gather together and hold a celebration meeting.

The backbone of the aircraft carrier, the captain's mate, etc. also came together, so Qin Tao naturally wanted to join in the fun.

However, when the car drove to the airport, they were surprised to find that there was only a plane and no people!

"These hangars are designed in accordance with the standards to prevent ground-penetrating bombs." Tang Yiping was glad that he did not leave with the others. Now a group of leaders came over to introduce them: "However, our method is to defend the enemy from the outside. If we let the enemy fly over our heads, we have already lost half the battle."

"Yes, no matter how good the hangar is, it can't stop bombs. The best defense is offense." Wu Shengli nodded: "We destroyed the enemy's planes on the runway and sunk the enemy's aircraft carriers in the ocean. We It’s naturally safe.”

In the past, the navy did not dare to say this. After all, the navy has always been for self-defense and did not have the ability to attack at all. It is different now. Now the navy has developed and grown, and it can completely defend against enemies!

Everyone walked forward along the hangar, past rows of parked aircraft, and watched the ground staff perform routine maintenance. They were very satisfied with the orderly operations here.

"The farthest one from here is the pilot's dormitory, which has better sound insulation."

"This is not necessary. Our pilots all like to listen to the sound of planes. If the plane stops one day, they will not be able to sleep." Wu Shengli said with a smile: "Where are the pilots? In the restaurant or in the dormitory?"

Going to the restaurant is to eat, and going to the dormitory is to clean up the house. After all, they have just moved here and need to decorate their rooms.

However, he received an unexpected answer.

"at the seaside."

"The beach? What are they doing at the beach?"

If people from inland areas come to the beach, they like to blow the sea breeze and step on the beach to pick up shells. However, the pilots of the Naval Air Force are with the sea every day. What else have they not seen?

What are they doing at the beach?
Wu Shengli was very curious.

"Play volleyball."

"Play volleyball? When they get off the aircraft carrier, the first thing they do is play volleyball?"

"Yes, I'm weird about playing volleyball too."

"What a nonsense. They are all the elites of the naval aviation force. How can they play such a dangerous confrontational game? What if something happens and they get injured?" A naval leader immediately expressed dissatisfaction.

Qin Tao smiled.

"It must have been Delano who suggested it, right?"

"Well, Mr. Qin, how did you know?"

"This is a tradition of the U.S. Navy. During breaks, they like to play volleyball on the beach, and there are many doubles."

"why?"

"Cultivation of a collaborative spirit and a sense of tacit understanding among crew members."

If you have watched "Top Gun", you will know that the U.S. Naval Air Forces like to play beach volleyball, and they always form a group of two on each side. This group happens to be two crew members.

The U.S. Navy's most powerful Tomcat fighter jet has a two-person piloting system. The pilot is in the front and the radar officer is in the back. The two must cooperate tacitly, which means they must be familiar with each other. They will live in the same dormitory, eat together, and sleep together. , train together and play games together.

Playing volleyball is not just about playing volleyball, but also about training the tacit understanding between them.

"Come on, let's go take a look!" Wu Shengli became interested.

"Come on, come on!" From a distance, you can hear shouts from the beach.

"Quick, pass the ball!"

"attack!"

"Defense!"

"Can you catch this ball?"

The pilots have taken off their flight suits and are wearing quick-drying physical training suits with half-sleeves on the upper body and shorts on the lower body.

Anyway, the climate in Qiongzhou is very suitable all year round.There is absolutely no need to wear cotton-padded clothes here. It is completely different from the wasteland village they were in before.

On the beach, a volleyball net had been erected long ago. On both sides of the volleyball net, there were two players, one male and one female, playing mixed beach volleyball.

Delano leaned back and made a cool serving move, and the volleyball flew to the opposite side.

The male player on the opposite side caught the volleyball and flew it into the sky. The female player caught it again and adjusted the direction, giving the male player the best opportunity to attack.

The male player raised his hand and slapped the volleyball to the opposite side.

Seeing that the volleyball was about to hit the ground, Xiang Jing had already pounced on it, almost crawling there before hitting the volleyball into the sky.

Delano had calmly received the ball and once again swatted it into the sky.

By the time she landed, Xiang Jing had already occupied the attacker's position. She was about to jump up and attack, attracting the attention of the two people on the opposite side, but it was a false shot.

The two people on the opposite side had already jumped up to defend, but they watched helplessly as Xiang Jing passed the volleyball to Delano. Delano jumped up and slammed it into the empty space on the opposite side.

Another goal!
Great!
The two of them clapped their hands together and looked at each other, both satisfied.

There was no discussion in advance, but they were able to cooperate tacitly. The two of them had a tacit understanding!

"Danger, too dangerous, you can get injured at any time. This kind of beach volleyball must disappear from our base!" At this moment, a dissatisfied voice came from the side.

Delano looked over with an ugly look and winked at Xiang Jing.

Xiang Jing understood and served again, but the ball was slightly deflected. Delano tried his best.

Bang!
The volleyball flew out from the beach and towards the crowd. The next second, there was a scream from the crowd.

"Hey!"

The naval leader who had just complained covered his face and sat on the sand.

"Hey, Leader Wang, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Xiang Jing came over and hurriedly explained: "We didn't know that we might accidentally injure others. This beach volleyball is too dangerous. If you want to watch it, you have to stay away."

"Who said we want to see it?"

"If you don't want to see it, what are you doing here?"

"I..." Before Leader Wang could answer, Delano's voice came from over there.

"Xiang Jing, pass the ball back! There are still 3 minutes left, we will score another goal!"

"Yes." Xiang Jing replied, then turned around and walked away, making a naughty face as she ran towards Delano.

"It's too much, it's too much, it's lawless!" Leader Wang's face turned red, he stamped his feet, and then left.The big guy turned his head and glanced at the back of Leader Wang as he left, and then continued to watch the game.

At the end of the game, the team of Delano and Xiang Jing won with an absolute advantage.

When the two people opposite heard the ending, they sat down on the ground.

"Delano, Xiang Jing, you are so awesome. Have you cooperated in advance?"

"No."

"That's still so powerful?"

"us…"

"Okay, it's almost time. Let's go to the pilot restaurant together and hold an induction celebration banquet there!"

The pilot restaurant originally did not allow others to enter, but this time was special after all. It was the aircraft carrier commissioning ceremony, so there had to be a high-end place to eat, and this pilot restaurant was just right.

Moreover, since the base has a large number of aircraft, the pilot restaurant is also very large, which can fully meet the needs of holding celebration banquets.

The guys then left, returned to the base, changed into regular clothes, and came to the restaurant.

In the restaurant, many senior naval leaders, officers from the aircraft carrier, etc. were already here.

Delano walked in, glanced at it, and ducked into the corner.

"Delano, why don't you stand forward?" Xiang Jing suddenly appeared in front of him.

"I don't like this kind of situation, where a bunch of leaders talk stinky and long words. In our oriental terms, it's called, it's called..."

Delano couldn't remember for a moment.

"Old lady's foot wrap?"

"That's right, it's the old lady's foot wrap."

The two of them had a clear understanding of each other, their eyes met, and they both saw the satisfaction in each other's eyes.

"How about we sneak out?"

Xiang Jing shook his head: "No, we are soldiers, and it is our bounden duty to obey orders. I can't leave, and neither can you!"

Delano, who always likes to disobey orders, actually nodded this time: "Okay, then I won't leave."

"It's almost there."

On the rostrum, Leader Wu began to speak.

"Today is the most important day for our navy. Our 002 aircraft carrier has officially entered service. This represents the further strengthening of our navy! Our navy has the ability to fulfill the sacred mission entrusted to us by the motherland and the people!"

"The construction of the Navy is changing with each passing day. The current aircraft carrier fleet is still very small. At the end of this year, we will have two more 052Ds to join, and next year there will be 055 to join, which will make the aircraft carrier fleet even stronger. Next, we will add more ships to this fleet. Each aircraft carrier prepares a comprehensive supply ship to meet the needs of the aircraft carrier formation, and its displacement is equivalent to the aircraft carriers of some countries!"

"Yes, there should be a comprehensive supply ship." Delano nodded.

"Next, let's toast to the strength of our motherland. Let's eat and drink well!"

It's over so soon?
Delano was a little curious. He originally thought it was the old lady's foot binding, but he didn't expect it to be so short and he started to eat?

OK, I just played a game of volleyball, which was very physically demanding and I need to replenish my energy.

Delano grabbed a hairy crab on the table and just got a piece of crab leg meat when Xiang Jing beside him spoke.

"Is this meat delicious?"

"Of course it's delicious."

"Can I have a taste?"

"Okay, here you go." Delano glanced at the other hairy crabs on the plate. He didn't know why Xiang Jing was interested in his own, but since he was interested in it, he gave it to her.

Delano still has this awareness.

"Don't give it directly." Another voice came from the side: "Xiang Jing was playing ball on the beach today. Her hands must be very painful and she can't peel the hairy crabs. Xiang De, you have to help. After peeling them, feed them to Xiang Jing's mouth. Here."

Xiang Jing blushed and turned to see Qin Tao.

"Mr. Qin, what are you talking about? We are all soldiers. We do our own thing. How can we trouble others?"

"Okay, okay." Qin Tao nodded: "I am too talkative. Alas, when will the window paper between the two of you be broken?"

Xiang Jing's face turned redder.

Xiang De was a little curious: "Mr. Qin, there is air between us, there is no window paper. Also, what is window paper?"

"Xiang De, why are you playing volleyball when you come down?"

"It was agreed on the aircraft carrier."

"Then are you going to be opponents or teammates?"

Delano thought about it for a moment. Yes, he was on the aircraft carrier and planned to be an opponent. How come he became a teammate when he got off?
Regardless of whether he is a teammate or an opponent, playing volleyball is just for fun.

Delano didn't think much of it.

"Come on, Mr. Qin, let's toast!"

Seeing the wine glass raised by Delano, Qin Tao smiled: "Delano, I won't drink your wine today."

"What?"

"It's boring. When you pierce the window paper, I will drink your wedding wine." Qin Tao finished speaking and left with the wine glass.

Even if Delano doesn't know what window paper is, at least he knows what wedding wine is. When he heard Qin Tao say this, Delano reacted instantly. Mr. Qin said that it was time for him to fall in love with Xiang Jing.

From the first time he came into contact with airplanes, Delano always thought that the lover of his generation was airplanes, but now...

Delano looked at Xiang Jing: "Xiang Jing, are you free tonight?"

"What do you want to do?"

"I want to treat you to a movie."

"Okay." Xiang Jing's face was filled with joy, and she looked at Mr. Qin's leaving figure, full of gratitude.

This Xiang De is really stupid. If President Qin hadn't pointed it out, I'm afraid Xiang De would have continued to be confused.

Qin Tao came back with a wine glass, and Wu Shengli asked curiously: "Taozi, what did you just say to Xiang De? Why do I see Xiang Jing blushing all the time?"

"I didn't say anything, I just broke a window." After Qin Tao finished speaking, he looked at Tang Yiping who was walking over: "Old Tang, we meet again. Your base has changed so fast over the years."

"Yeah, when we talk about the changes here, even we ourselves can't believe it." Tang Yiping said: "When we equipped the J-[-], we were still very satisfied. We thought the J-[-] was enough, but now , our base has completely eliminated the J-[-]."

When Qin Tao came to Lingshui for the first time, he saw the J-[-] fighter. Wang Wei and his partners were serving here at that time. Qin Tao even went to Wang Wei's home and saw Wang Wei's J-[-] fighter jet taking off from the aircraft carrier. oil painting.

Now, several years have passed, and naval equipment has also undergone earth-shaking changes.

The former eighth master was already old and was despised by the navy.

"Yes." Wang Wei came over: "At the beginning, we thought the J-32 was the best aircraft because we did not have advanced fighters at that time. Now, we have the J-[-] and the J-[-]. The J-[-] should indeed be eliminated. ”

At least at Lingshui Airport, the old J-[-] must be eliminated. After all, the performance of this aircraft is seriously backward, and Lingshui Airport needs a large number of advanced fighters to protect the skies over the southern seas.

"It would be a pity to eliminate such a good aircraft."

"It's so good. This kind of aircraft has a lot of flaws. If it wasn't useless, why would we have used the J-[-]? This aircraft is not mature at all." Another voice said.

The history of Baye is very long. It was designed in the 60s and was finally finalized in the 80s. It was just the nose air intake. Later, the air intake on both sides was changed, and it was changed to the mid-to-late 80s. Later, it was the Peace Model, and then there was Su-27.
In fact, there were many opinions about the finalization at that time, such as that it could not meet the finalization requirements, etc. In short, the navy and air force had no choice at that time and could only make do with it.

What now?
There are now a large number of advanced fighters, so it is finally time for the J-[-] to be eliminated.

The J-[-] was eliminated earlier than the J-[-]. There is a reason for this. After all, the J-[-] is more mature and reliable than the J-[-].

"It's not a pity to eliminate them. Moreover, we have to build an aircraft cemetery like the United States and put all the obsolete aircraft there. In the future, if all the advanced fighters are used up, we can still use these old fighters. "Another leader spoke.

Qin Tao shook his head: "If all the advanced fighter planes are used up, it means that the situation has reached a critical juncture. If it really comes to this time, why not use the old fighter planes? Just grow mushrooms. I remember the leader of Da Mao said But if Da Mao is gone, then why is there still a world left?"

The expressions on everyone's faces were stagnant. Yes, this sentence makes sense. If all the fighter planes are really wiped out, what would it be like?At that time, why not use backward fighters? Just grow mushrooms and let the opponent regress to the Stone Age.

"Then our batch of J-[-] fighters will be useless after they are retired?"

"The J-[-] can be converted into a drone, the J-[-] can be sealed, but the J-[-] is really not of much use."

"It seems we can only go back to the old ways."

"If the navy is willing, it can give away our batch of J-[-]s."

Send someone?

Everyone's expressions became serious.

The Navy is not yet rich, and it can still make money by recycling the equipment, but if you give it away, you will lose it. The Navy is not yet rich and generous, so if you want to give it away, who should you give it to?
This second-generation machine is already considered the worst of rags. Who would want it?

"Taozi, who do you want to give it to?"

"Northern Kimchi Country."

Hearing Qin Tao say this name, everyone was stunned for a moment, and then started thinking.

At that time, the Northern Kimchi Country relied on the assistance of Lao Maozi, and its life was very prosperous. However, when the Red Empire collapsed, the Northern Kimchi Country was suddenly in trouble. Domestic cars still had to burn firewood, which shows how poor it was.

The Northern Pickle Country is used to reaching out for things, and planned to let Dongfang replace Lao Maozi, and continue to ask for things from Dongfang, but was rejected. Our things are not brought by strong winds, so why should we give them to you for free?
They came to Mingzhou Group several times to ask for it, but Qin Tao deceived them and left.

Now, Qin Tao suggested that the Navy give the J-[-] to the Northern Pickle Country. Isn't this generosity to others?
