Great Power Fighting Falcon

There was basically no objection to the discussion on whether to allow Li Zhan to return to flight. The Division Party Committee and Youth League Committee unanimously agreed to allow Li Zhan to return to flight. However, the leaders had different opinions on whether to let him resume combat readiness duty. For this reason, Qi Hong had to convene a special meeting again, and Yu Chenglin participated on behalf of the Fourth Regiment.

In the division headquarters building, the atmosphere was tense from the beginning of the meeting. Unlike retreat meetings, when discussing specific matters and the target is a soldier on the front line, there are no so many scruples and you can truly speak your mind freely.

Hong knocked on the table, glanced at the relevant leading cadres on both sides, and said, "Let's get straight to the point. Let's talk about our opinions on this soldier."

After coughing a few times, Fang Chenghe said, "This soldier is pretty good, maybe he's just a bit unlucky."

What does this mean? The tone has been set at the beginning. Isn’t this a retreat? How can we study this? Do we still need to study it? Can't you two leaders just make the decision?

Fang Chenghe also realized that what he just said was somewhat pointed. After thinking about it, he added, "You can speak freely without any worries. The purpose of this meeting is to let everyone express their opinions."

The deputy division commander in charge of training with gray hair smiled and said, "It's true that he is a good seedling, otherwise the division commander and political commissar would not have spent so much effort to find so many connections and come all the way to snatch it from Beikong."

Everyone looks over and waits for what’s to come.

This deputy division commander is considered the first deputy division commander. He is qualified and capable. Unfortunately, he is too old and does not conform to the principle of rejuvenating the army cadres. Otherwise, he would be the division commander.

Sure enough, the deputy commander with gray hair smiled and said, "Theoretically, there is no problem with the go-around. All inspections have passed, so there is no reason not to give him a go-around. But this kid's bad luck is too bad. How many planes will be scrapped like this? Of course, this is just a joke. As long as everything meets the requirements, I have no objection."

Nodding slightly, Qi Hong pointed at Yu Chenglin and said, "Deputy Captain Yu, you know the situation best. You can explain it."

At the scene, Yu Chenglin had the lowest official rank. He looked a little restrained and endured helplessness. He said, "Division commander, political commissar, what advice can I have? I definitely hope that my soldiers can resume flying as soon as possible. Our fourth regiment is the worst equipped. But the combat readiness task is the heaviest, and the manpower is already insufficient. Now that a few are selected for modification, it is even more stretched."

The words became smoother and smoother. After a pause, he continued, "Besides, whether it's a plane crash or a mechanical failure, Li Zhan encounters all unexpected situations. The aircraft maintenance support is no problem, and his personal skills are no problem. Besides, Yes, our group has reservations about grounding Li Zhan. It makes no sense!"

Fang Chenghe smiled and said, "It seems that your Fourth Regiment has a lot of objections to the grounding of Li Zhan. You must understand that this is to protect him. I have absolutely no objection to his personal division, and to the Fourth Regiment No more objections.”

Everyone laughed. The words themselves were not funny. What was funny was Li Zhan.

"Indeed, our Second Division has only been here for a little while, more than half a year, and we have actually lost two J-7s. Division commander, political commissar, I mean, if this continues, the Fourth Regiment will not have enough planes. Don't forget The J-7 has been discontinued. Even if there is funds, there is no place to buy it. Even if the production is not discontinued, the superiors will not replenish it for us. You have to modify the third-generation aircraft." The new chief of staff said with reason.

Everyone nodded.

Fang Chenghe sighed and said, "Yes, the J-7 fell down before the third-generation fighter jets arrived. We can't let the fifth and sixth regiments pass by. It's quite embarrassing at this time."

"Commander, political commissar, please give us the two-seat Su Liangqi first. The Sixth Regiment has more double-seaters than single-seaters. Come over here and let's refit some of them first." Yu Chenglin said.

The regiment leader is not at home, and the deputy regiment leader attends such a meeting and has the opportunity to face the division commander and political commissar at the same time. He not only has to speak for his soldiers, but also fights for the welfare of the regiment.

This teacher will give you as much as you need, neither more nor less. It’s time to pay attention to the dough. You don’t give to anyone. What’s wrong with giving you more and less? As the saying goes, a child who cries gets milk.

Qi Hong said, "The aircraft of the Sixth Regiment are not enough. The brother troops will come over for modification and training next month, and they are also very nervous. If you want aircraft, I think the equipment is insufficient. Who should I look for? Let's stop this topic and let's talk about Li The political commissar has verbally promised Li Zhan that as long as he is willing to modify the J-8, he will be allowed to return to combat readiness and put him on combat readiness."

Everyone looked at each other and thought in unison, since the political commissars have agreed, there is nothing to discuss.

Fang Chenghe said, "In the end, it still has to be approved by the party committees at the division and regiment levels. The J-8 is a new model, and other troops have no flying experience with this type of aircraft. We need comrades with strong skills to fly, and the manufacturer is waiting for them. I want data.”

Although no one raised any clear objection, including the new chief of staff, who only raised a concern, almost everyone did not have much confidence in their hearts. In the final analysis, he was still afraid that Li Zhan would encounter another unexpected danger. Even when Fang Chenghe made the plan to let Li Zhan modify the J-8FR, he had the idea of ​​using Li Zhan as a "test pilot" in his heart.

Otherwise, there would be no need to call this meeting at all.

Yu Chenglin looked at the leaders and thought to himself. He had already said everything, so he wasn't afraid to say more.

So he said, "The division commander, political commissar, and Commander Tang called back to instruct the regiment to do a good job in Li Zhan's ideological work and list it as a key target. Our regiment attaches great importance to Comrade Li Zhan. Commander Tang said, since this soldier Being assigned to our fourth regiment shows that the division attaches great importance to our regiment. Commander Tang ordered our regiment leaders at home and the officers and soldiers to pay more attention to Comrade Li Zhan."

Which group is suffering the most? Four regiments. Because the Fourth Regiment is stationed in the same field as the division headquarters. The higher commanding authority is right next to you, which makes you feel more uncomfortable. Many times there are orders, and the division headquarters directly issues orders to the combat operations group or even a certain pilot below, and the paperwork is often filled in later. How do you deal with the Fourth Regiment in this way? Sandwich Cookies.

Yu Chenglin's words were very vague, but the meaning was very clear - Li Zhan was a soldier of the Fourth Regiment, and your division often went beyond the Fourth Regiment Party Committee to study Li Zhan's affairs. Our regiment was dissatisfied!

The flying regiment is the backbone combat unit, and all departments revolve around the flying regiment, including the division headquarters headquarters. The commander of the flight regiment dared to slam the table on the division commander and political commissar!

Tang Guozheng, the leader of the Fourth Regiment, has such a history!

Hearing Xian's intention, how could Qi Hong not hear Yu Chenglin's intention? He looked at Fang Chenghe and said with a smile, "Deputy Commander Yu, under special circumstances there is an unavoidable lag in some procedures at the division headquarters. The teacher knows it very well."

He glanced around and said seriously, "First, Comrade Li Zhan is a special talent. I believe everyone knows that he is a member of the Air Force talent pool and has been awarded first-class merit twice. He is also a key figure in our division. For the management of special talents, the regiment level must absolutely cooperate with the division to do the work."

It was a very formal response, and the meaning was very direct - the division must not only intervene in Li Zhan's management, but also require your regiment's unconditional full cooperation.

Qi Hong raised a finger and said, "Second point, military reform is imperative. The command mechanism of the Air Force will definitely change in the future. How it will change and in which direction it will change, I don't know. Everything is being explored. . But one thing is certain, the military division regiment will no longer exist in the future, and the flattening of the command mechanism is inevitable. If the division is consciously exploring this, it will inevitably be more directly involved in the work and training of the flight regiment. This is For major matters, the regiment level must cooperate unconditionally.”

Having said this, Qi Hong looked at Yu Chenglin and said, "Deputy Commander Yu, please tell Commander Tang not to make small calculations, but to focus on the overall situation."

The atmosphere was very solemn.

Fang Chenghe smiled and said, "Old Tang is used to eating more and occupying more, but his starting point is good."

As he spoke, he changed the topic.

Everyone knew better that it would not be easy for his superiors to transfer Qi Hong from HNA. Nan Batian is the fist and benchmark of the Air Force, and must be at the forefront. If the army wants to reform, Nan Batian must be the first to reform.

Qi Hong came here to be a reform general!
