1949 I am from the future

()【28】Pilot, rush transport, naval commander

Jilin Tonghua Airport.

The winter in the north is always very cold, and the boundless snowfield also looks empty and quiet. At first glance, the villages in the distance look like dirt bags floating on the white snow, very cute.

At the airport of Tonghua Old Aviation School, the snow has been shoveled down by the teachers and students together with the comrades in the army.The runway is a bit rough, and there are still snow residues in some places, so there are still many comrades who are meticulously cleaning and pulling with bamboo brooms.

At this moment, the second-generation pilots of New China selected from all over the country are gathered here. They all come from the army and are carefully selected in strict accordance with these four conditions.

The first must be a member of the Communist Party of China;

The second is to arrange cadres above the rank;

The third is to fight bravely;

The fourth is to have good physical fitness.

Such high demands doomed them to an extraordinary mission.

The air force thinks this way, there are so many jet fighters at once, among which J-1203 is a subsonic fighter, and J-[-] is a supersonic fighter. The number and quality of jet fighters have exploded. , reaching as many as [-]!This leap-forward development was so violent that it tensed the nerves of the entire Air Force.

Therefore, the Air Force leadership decided to greatly increase the number of selected pilots. The original plan was to recruit 49 pilots in 150. Under the flapping of the butterfly wings of Xiaoqiang, the Air Force carried out supplementary recruitment of pilots before the end of 49. The number of supplementary recruitments That's a staggering 1600 people!At the same time, the strength of various departments was mobilized to form 8 new aviation schools.

When this plan was launched by the Air Force Command, everyone in the old aviation school was stunned. They were full of confidence in the future of China's aviation industry, but also felt huge pressure and difficulties.

As early as 1945 after the liberation of Northeast China, our army established the Northeast Old Aviation School in Tonghua. At the beginning, more than 30 aviation technical cadres including Wang Bi and Chang Qiankun rushed to Tonghua from Yan'an to fight with the comrades of the Northeast Bureau. , after several years of unremitting efforts, using all kinds of dilapidated and old-fashioned aircraft and equipment collected, under difficult conditions, it took nearly four years to train 126 excellent pilots.

It took nearly four years to train 126 people, how long will it take to train 1600 people?

At that time, there were many problems in the aviation school, and a lot of difficulties needed to be solved. Not only was the training aircraft in hand old and dilapidated, but there was no complete set of training aircraft.You must know that the training of pilots needs to start with a primary trainer, upgrade to an intermediate trainer, and then train with an advanced trainer.It is very risky to skip the first two steps and go directly to the higher education machine.

But the old aviation school only has 30 advanced trainer planes seized from the Japanese army.Moreover, only these 30 Japanese Type 99 higher education aircraft are incomplete.After the North China People's Liberation Army seized these planes, they parked them near the airport and did not take care of them. Some ordinary people saw the situation and ran to smash the canopy of the plane with a hoe, and dug out the timer on the dashboard of the plane. , took it home as an alarm clock; some villagers simply unloaded the tires of the planes and put them on their own carriages to make wheels... and so on and so on, which caused these planes to be taken in by the aviation school. broken.

Chinese people are the smartest and most capable of overcoming disadvantages. At that time, the students of the old aviation school all had two portable magic weapons, hemp rope and alarm clock.Why are these two things used?Let me tell you, if there is no timer, I use an alarm clock tied to my leg as a timer; the hemp rope is a seat belt, and I use it to tie myself in the cockpit of the plane before takeoff!Pop-up seat?What is that?The old aviation school students said they had never heard of it.Parachute bag?Are you kidding me, there are only these planes in total, even if they are about to fall, I have to manipulate them to the end, and maybe they can be pulled up at the last moment.

At that time, the shortage of aviation safety equipment was unimaginable. Often, as soon as a plane landed, the propellers were quickly removed and installed on another plane without propellers. The plane that landed was pushed aside to wait for the engine to cool down.Airplane tires were actually pumped with bicycle pumps, and several people lined up to pump them.

If you think this is sad enough, then there is even more maddening - no aviation fuel!So I used gasoline instead, and finally developed to the point where gasoline was not enough, so I had to use alcohol instead!This safety factor is really... Anyway, you just wait for the engine to stop at high altitude!Didn't stop this time?Your kid is lucky!

These hardships and hardships were later said by these veteran students as a joke, without any fear when they said it, as if they were not the parties involved.If the elements that make an ace pilot are bravery and experience, then Chinese pilots will never lack the former.

In short, the material conditions at that time were so difficult that words cannot describe them one by one.

At that time, the training basically depended on the teacher's lectures on the ground. After everyone had memorized the memorization and answered the questions fluently, well, the instructor would ask everyone if they dared to fly.

dare?Are you kidding me, I was recommended by the army to fly a plane, and I am about to get my hands on it, so you ask me if I dare.Come, come, let's try a fight, see if I dare.None of these battle heroes who have been chosen from thousands of people is a coward.

May I ask which of these Chinese hot-blooded men dare not fly?And so the flight began.Statistically, ten pilots from the old aviation school have been trained, and there are still nine left. That young heroic soul will leave us forever.

But now, these new China's first-generation pilots have received the task of quickly getting started with the operation of new aircraft, and then bring out a group of pilots who can fly new aircraft quickly by using the old to bring in the new.

First of all, these veterans have to master the JJ[-], which is the first time in the history of our army to test a jet aircraft.

In order to keep the secrets of these new aircraft, the Air Force put the flight training of J-[-] and J-[-] at Nanyuan Airport in the northern capital.New trainees still go to Tonghua Aviation School for enlightenment flight training.

At Beidu Nanyuan Airport, all the pilots of a flight brigade established through careful selection from existing pilots are visiting JJ[-].Captain Wang Hai has just thoroughly understood the data of this "National Treasure" aircraft and is introducing the situation to everyone.

These new China's treasures, the heroic pilots, stared at Wang Hai intently and listened attentively to his every word.When they received the task of "proficiently mastering the first batch of jet aircraft in China", they were somewhat nervous in their excitement.They don't know what a jet plane is like.

Therefore, when everyone saw Jianjiao Wu, they were all dumbfounded.

The ground crew pulled back the tarpaulin in front of them, and Wu Ye's silver-white all-aluminum body immediately reflected the sunlight, shining brightly into everyone's eyes.

"This plane has no propeller!" exclaimed one pilot.

"Is this an all-aluminum fuselage? You can't see wood!" Another pilot yelled as he competed with him.

"Instructor, why are the wings of this plane queried to the back? How can it fly without straightening?"

"Don't talk, listen to the instructor." An older pilot spoke.

"Hello everyone, I am your instructor, and my name is Wang Hai.

Like everyone else, I have just come into contact with this secret fighter plane. It is the top secret of our country and was transported secretly by special means. It can be called a national treasure.Everyone has memorized the confidentiality regulations before, so I won't repeat them.

According to the data in my hand, next we will explore the maneuvering of this aircraft together, and we must complete the tasks assigned by Zhongyang Military Commission in the shortest possible time. "

After the opening remarks, Wang Hai first answered everyone's questions:

"Let me give you a brief introduction first. This jet does not have a propeller. It relies on a turbojet engine. It first inhales air and burns it with fuel in the combustion chamber, and then ejects these high-temperature airflows from the tail. got thrust.

I reckon this jet flies so fast that the flat wings can't be used, so the wings are purposely pushed to the back, causing them to be slanted..."

So after a day of explanations and groping, according to the explanatory materials, the pilots and ground crew basically figured out the usage methods and data of all the airborne equipment of JJ[-].But there is still a long way to go before flying into the sky.

But we firmly believe that there are no difficulties that these youngsters under the leadership of the Communist Party of China cannot overcome.History has proven this time and time again.

The equipment for the construction of the air force overhaul plant is being loaded onto the train and transported to Shenyang.Beidu Railway Station is now heavily guarded.Vehicles shuttled back and forth between the warehouse and the transportation gate of Beidu Station, and every crossing on the road was guarded by soldiers.

After the overhaul of the plant equipment has been transported, there is still equipment for the construction of a chemical refinery waiting to be shipped to Shandong.It can be said that since Xiaoqiang's arrival, the PLA's transportation team has not slept a wink.There are really too many materials, and each equipment must be classified and numbered.There were very few lifting machines in this era, relying largely on manpower.It can be said that all the builders of the 491 Project, regardless of leaders or the masses, all rushed to the front line.

As an exception, there is only the grandson Xiaoqiang. After dinner, this kid drove back to the warehouse area, took two large cardboard boxes from the warehouse, and asked the driver Liu Zhen and Dongzi to stuff the contents of the cardboard boxes into the small box. Car, pat your ass and drive away.

This carton is filled with Lock and Buckle plastic crisper, and the box is filled with all kinds of snacks.

Before Xiaoqiang came back, he made a big purchase in a supermarket in 2010. After tearing off the packaging, it was full of more than 100 boxes.I don't know what Yu Feng will think when he sees the boxes of plastic crispers.

As soon as he arrived at the door, Xiaoqiang guessed that there were guests at home.No, there are two guards standing at the door.

"It's so late, who's coming?" Xiaoqiang pondered blindly, and ordered Dongzi and the driver Liu Zhen to move the things in the car.Go ahead and see for yourself.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, the guest who had been notified rushed out of Xiaoqiang's living room and walked straight to Xiaoqiang. Looking at the person who came, under the two straight eyebrows, his eyes were crooked with a smile. It makes people want to get close to him as soon as they see him, very friendly.

"Hello, Comrade Cao Xiaoqiang! I'm Xiao Jinguang." The amiable man spoke quickly, and reported his family background.

Xiaoqiang knew what was going on as soon as he heard it. Isn't this awesome man the first naval commander of New China, General Xiao Jinguang? Then the purpose of his coming to me...

Sure enough, after a few pleasantries between Commander Xiao and Xiaoqiang, he pulled Xiaoqiang out of the house involuntarily, and went straight to the Changqiao Military Commission Office on the west side of Beihai Park where the Navy Preparatory Committee was located.

In the car, Commander Xiao took the time to introduce Xiaoqiang.

It turned out that in December [-], the Military Commission issued a telegram to transfer Xiao Jinguang, the commander and political commissar of the [-]th Corps, to form a naval leadership.General Xiao, who received the mission, did not dare to delay at all, and immediately went to Beijing starry night.

General Xiao went to Beijing to meet with the chairman and was accepted as one of the participants of Project 491.As soon as I started working here, I encountered many difficulties.

What's going on?

In a word, no warships!

On the other side of Daiwan, since June 49 when the Government Council headed by Yan Xishan was cobbled together, it has blocked our southeast coast in an attempt to destroy our economy.Cowhide announced to all countries in the world that "all foreign ships are strictly prohibited from entering" in the above-mentioned sea area, and "all overseas commercial transportation will be stopped."

With the successive liberation of China's southeast coastal provinces and cities, the area of ​​the Kuomintang government's maritime blockade has also gradually expanded, actually including all coastal ports, offshore waterways, and all islands they can control.

The blockade and sabotage methods adopted by the Kuomintang government on the southeast coast are, first, to lay mines at the mouth of the Yangtze River.On June [-], [-], the Kuomintang "Zhong Yangri News" gloated and reported: "Puhai's production will be paralyzed because of this benefit...".

The second is to dispatch more than 20 ships to patrol and blockade, and attack or detain any ships that break through the blockade.

The third is to search for pirates with small boats and make them disperse to carry out robbery and sabotage activities at sea.

The fourth is to continuously dispatch planes to indiscriminately bomb coastal economic and military areas, destroy various military and industrial facilities, disturb people's hearts, and kill the people.The main targets of the bombing were the ships of the People's Navy. They threatened: "We will destroy them all before they go to sea!" Six of the warships "Huian", "Ji'an", "Taiyuan", "Andong", "Yongsui", and "Chutong" were bombed by Kuomintang aircraft.In addition, a "Civil Rights" ship was severely damaged.

Due to the blockade of ports and waterways by the Kuomintang, the domestic and foreign trade of New China was greatly affected, and the shipping between Fujian and Zhejiang to Nanyang, Hong Kong and Macao was once interrupted.Due to the unsafe sea routes leading to Qingdao, Puhai and other places, some foreign ships had to unload goods in some remote small ports with extremely small throughput, resulting in a large backlog of materials and unable to circulate.In order to carry out the necessary foreign trade, the people's government rented foreign ships at a high price under the circumstances of extreme financial constraints, and paid a monthly rent of 1750 billion old currency, which is 1750 million yuan, and these foreign ships were still detained by the Kuomintang navy from time to time and raids.

Under the blockade and plunder of the Kuomintang navy and pirates, the fishery production of New China also suffered heavy losses.Among the more than 194.8 million people directly engaged in fishery production along the coast, more than 50 people in Fujian and Zhejiang provinces alone cannot go fishing!More than 2000 fishing boats were robbed!More than 1 fishermen were arrested!

At this time, Commander Xiao had less than 10 usable warships, and they were all old-fashioned small gunboats.In desperation, he found the chairman, hoping to import warships to solve the urgent need.

The chairman directly gave him an idea to find Cao Xiaoqiang.
