Raising the nose slightly, facing the wind and snow, the Y-9 spread its wings like an eagle and soared, facing the wind and snow, pointing straight to the distant sky.

Flying away from the heavily guarded Shencheng Air Base, climbing altitude, passing through thick clouds, and finally reaching an altitude of 6,000 meters, the entire Y-9 entered a stable flight state and flew to the destination along the predetermined route.

"It's beautiful." Looking at the thick clouds and the endless sky below, Zhou Hai's eyes revealed a blurry color, and he sighed softly.

Beauty.

This is the beauty of the sky, which is intoxicating and fascinating.

"Zhou Hai, there are still five hours, you can rest for a while, and go to the base of the three cities for dinner." Tan Gang snorted, not caring at all about the sound of the huge and irritating turboprop engine in the cargo hold, and spoke, leaning against the cargo compartment wall and closing his eyes to rest.

Zhou Hai nodded, and after looking at the sky outside for a while, he withdrew his gaze and rested quietly.

Starting from Shencheng Air Base and arriving at the destination base in the three cities of Hai Province, it takes more than 5 hours to travel 2,900 kilometers and pass through nine provinces.

This time, Zhou Hai had no books to read, so he had to rest, recuperate, and wait for the next upcoming training.

Survival training in the wild was beyond Zhou Hai's expectations and guesses.

……

As the southernmost place of the Chinese map plate, Hai Province, with a land area of 2 million, is the largest province in the country, located in the northern edge of the tropics, belongs to the tropical monsoon climate, and has the title of "natural greenhouse".

The sea province in the long summer without the east, the perennial average temperature of 18 degrees Celsius - 26 degrees Celsius, rich in products, abundant resources, is now the best place to carry out parachute training and wilderness survival training, and the Air Force Aviation University has built a training base here.

Hai province, three cities, air base.

In the middle of the night, the bright moonlight sprinkled down, covering the whole city with a layer of silver.

A gentle breeze dispels the heat.

"Boom!"

Accompanied by a series of huge noises that continued like a tidal wave, the Y-9 medium tactical transport plane, which had been sailing for five and a half hours, arrived at the outskirts of the Sanshi Air Base.

After the tower approves the landing, the entire Y-9 lowers the nose of the aircraft to reduce the flight altitude, and the landing gear sticks out from under the belly of the aircraft to aim at the slender and straight main take-off runway of the air base.

The horizontal flight attitude is stable, and the Y-9, which is loaded with cargo, carries out the standard landing process with two temporary passengers, Zhou Hai and Tan Gang.

The three-point landing gear tires came into contact with the ground, and a relatively violent vibration came out, and the two pilots controlled the fuselage to slow down, drove away from the main take-off runway, entered the predetermined apron area along the taxiway, and stopped steadily.

"Squeak!" At this time, the door switch shows a green light, and the closed metal cargo door slowly opens.

The amplification equipment in the cabin sounded the slightly hoarse voice of the pilot: "Passengers, this flight has arrived at the destination, I am the purser of this flight, and I have a pleasant journey." ”

"Phew, it's finally here." Sitting on the seat of the cargo hold, after five hours of bumpy Zhou Hai, he exhaled a breath of turbidity.

Tan Gang rubbed his sour shoulders, his face was a little heavy, he took off his thick winter coat and Lei Feng hat, and stood up: "Let's go." ”

Zhou Hai nodded, followed behind Yu Tan Gang, left the cargo hold, and came to a warm and suitable open space outside.

The night sky is as clear as dust, and countless bright stars emit dazzling light, reflecting each other with the bright moon, forming a picture of the starry sky that will never get tired of seeing.

Starry sky.

Mysterious, vast.

Standing on the southernmost land of the country, Zhou Hai slowly took off his winter coat and Lei Feng hat, looked up at this vast and brilliant starry sky, silent, his heart beat faster, and an inexplicable feeling welled up in his mind, a trace of longing.

Craving.

It is a longing that stems from the depths of the soul, from the dream of flight that is rooted in the human heart.

What was the original flight, the sky?

No, it's the boundless expanse of the universe overhead.

"What are you doing, let's go." Tan Gang turned around and shouted at Zhou Hai.

Zhou Hai took a deep breath, quickly followed Tan Gang, and said, "I'm wondering when human beings will be able to go to the universe. ”

"Young age, don't think all day long, be down-to-earth, and do the current things well." Tan Gang's face was serious, and he criticized the education: "Let's go, go and eat first, by the way, anyone who asks about your identity and information is strictly forbidden to disclose it, and it is highly confidential, do you know?" ”

"Yes."

didn't care about Tan Gang's criticism, Zhou Hai only went in the left ear and out of the right ear, kept the latter sentence in mind, cleaned up his emotions, smiled and nodded gently.

Zhou Hai didn't know why he suddenly had such desires and thoughts, but he remembered the words that the great man Qian Lao once said-

You are looking at the dense twinkling stars on a clear night, and you have a longing and unattainable disappointment.

Are we really so pathetic?

No, never!

We must conquer the universe.

Every time he thought of this long-standing sentence, Zhou Hai's heart involuntarily throbbed and gushed with longing.

"Whew!"

Zhou Hai exhaled a breath of turbidity, hid his inner thoughts and thoughts, and followed Tan Gang quietly.

Leaving the flat and open airport runway, the two entered the base building, found the commissary, bought a few buckets of instant noodles for a meal, and ate three times five divided by two, which was considered a solution for dinner.

Immediately afterwards, Tan Gang and Zhou Hai took a special car and left the Sanshi Air Force Base in operation, and rushed to the training base 100 kilometers away overnight.

Due to the main campus in the north, there are only three or four months of the year for cadet pilots to train, and the rest of the time is mostly spent in snow clearing and indoor learning.

Therefore, the aviation school invested in the three cities of Hai Province in Changxia Wudong to establish an exclusive training base for training aviation school students in various training subjects such as wilderness survival training, parachuting, wilderness hiding, swimming, etc.

The entire training base consists of a small airport and training ground, covering an area of about 2 square kilometers, with a 2,000-meter-long concrete runway and various equipment.

At present, the third-year flight cadets are stationed here for training.

At about 11 o'clock in the evening, the two people in the special car of the army arrived at the training base covered in night.

After the two entered the base, Zhou Hai was placed in a temporary personal dormitory, and did not have contact with the third-year flight cadets.

There is no way, Zhou Hai's identity is only a freshman, and if the third-year flight student knows, it is estimated that he will cause some unnecessary trouble.

Moreover, the training content of the two sides is not the same.

The dormitory is located in the faculty dormitory building, number 103, after Zhou Hai entered the dormitory, he packed up his personal change of clothes, washed up briefly, and went to bed.

Tomorrow, the special training life is coming.
