Chapter 1131: Skydiving

Du Yuming got their approximate airborne range from Liao Fan, on the banks of the Yalu River! But there is one thing that stumped Du Yuming, because in Liao Fan's map, it is not on the west side of the Yalu River, but on the east side of the Yalu River.

This can stump Du Yuming, the Yalu River is the dividing line between the two countries, Liao Fan actually asked them to parachute on the east side, this is to parachute to another country.

He wanted to call and ask Liao Fan, but ...... After picking up the phone, Du Yuming still held back, whether it was fighting on the east or west coast, there was not much difference in their airborne range!

Now what they need to do is targeted training, that is, to use airborne training to train the general combat orientation of the soldiers. And not where to land.

After determining their airborne range, Du Yuming communicated with Huang Changsheng as soon as possible, they still have time, and during this time, it is completely possible for them to conduct two targeted trainings.

"At that time, our planes will take off from the airport on the outskirts of Beiping and arrive near the Yalu River! If you take off from Taiyuan Airport, the airborne range is about near Chengde. Huang Changsheng calculated the bearing and coordinates.

"Chengde can't do it, it's too close to the Northeast region, and the activities of the little devil agents there are more rampant, which is likely to cause the leakage of the plan!"

Chengde is close to the northeast, there are troops of the Northeast Military Region stationed nearby, and the Japanese army agents are frequently active, the purpose is to reconnoiter the equipment of the various units of the Northeast Military Region, as well as the next plan, if they go to Chengde to carry out the airborne, the Japanese army will definitely see through the plan.

"Then we will go to the northwest, where the population is sparse, and the implementation of airborne safety is relatively large! And it belongs to the defense area of Commander Fu Yisheng of the Seventh Army, and it is quite safe over there! ”

"Hmm...... Okay, I'll give General Fu a call......"

After discussing with Fu Yisheng, the airborne range of this training was temporarily set near Wuhai! In order to ensure safety, Fu Yisheng's troops said that they would set up logistics supply stations in the surrounding area, and if any soldier parachuted and was injured, they would rescue him as soon as possible.

"In the early stage, we will take our time in our work, we can't be too anxious, so that the pilots and soldiers can adapt first, so first parachute a regiment of soldiers to see the situation, and if there is a situation, we can also make adjustments!"

Huang Changsheng suggested that they should not use too much force the first time, otherwise it would be difficult to fix the problem, and all this should be done gradually, not only for the training of the soldiers of the Airborne Forces, but also for the training of their pilots.

"Yes, let's come one group at a time!"

According to the established plan, a regiment of the Airborne Forces drove into the Air Force station in a car! The other units did not know what this regiment was going to do.

"Listen up, brethren, from now on you have to forget everything they see, just remember the precautions you take when boarding the plane and our usual training!" A platoon commander commanded his men.

There are many bans on the airbase that are not found in other units, and it is likely that the unintentional actions of one soldier cause the failure of one plane, and the next thing that a plane will carry is dozens of soldiers.

Before this operation, Du Yuming held a meeting for officers at and above the regimental level, whether civilian officers or officers with military power, and specially emphasized that they must strictly abide by the regulations, otherwise they will all be kicked out of the airborne troops, no matter how big the military rank is!

You must know that the army pays the most attention to honor, and a soldier is kicked out of his old unit because of his mistakes, even if there are other troops willing to accept him, but he will not be able to wash away his black spot in the army in his life.

When you arrive at the air base, you must obey the orders of the Air Force.

"Commander, do you want to arrange for someone to follow you?" Stop asking.

In addition to the recent recruits and officers of the Airborne Forces, Du Yuming did not jump a parachute, and even he did not undergo special training, and a veteran told him all the skills of parachuting, and all the precautions were also told to him by Zhi Zhengming.

"No, isn't it just a parachute? Can you still stump Lao Tzu? ”

As the commander of the airborne troops, he must be with his troops at all times, and in this operation, he will parachute behind enemy lines with the last troops.

Zhi Zhengming just smiled, he thought of the first time he got on the plane, he vomited as soon as the plane took off, and he almost couldn't jump in the end!

There are many soldiers who have no problem training against vertigo on land, but they can't help it when they get to the plane.

Of course, Du Yuming would not think that skydiving is not difficult, otherwise what would be the purpose of spending so much time and energy on training?

But Du Yuming, as the commander, he can't let the soldiers laugh behind his back as the boss of the airborne troops, and he hasn't even been on the plane!

"What are you laughing at?" Du Yuming looked at Zhi Zhengming's smile and asked.

"It's nothing, Commander Du, if there is any need, just say it, the officers who flew with you have jumped more than twice parachutes, even if there is a problem, they can bring you safely to the ground!"

In order to ensure Du Yuming's safety, Zhi Zhengming specially asked Du Yuming to parachute with the veterans! The commander-in-chief of his own family must not have an accident during the first parachute jump, otherwise it will become a big joke in the history of the army.

Although Du Yuming thinks that skydiving is not easy, he also does not think that skydiving is a difficult thing! At least he wouldn't be as excited as the recruits.

When the soldiers of a regiment entered the airbase, they still did not feel that the entire airbase had become bustling, or as empty as usual! The airbase was so big that thousands of people lived in it like a pebble falling into the desert.

Perhaps it is the reason for the special favor of the heavens, the weather at the place of departure and landing is very good! No wind, no rain, clear sky!

For veterans, this is an ordinary training, but for recruits, excitement and tension, before they board the plane, they can see from the waiting which of these soldiers are veterans and which are new recruits.

The soldiers carried a lot of equipment, Du Yuming went into battle lightly, this was his first parachute jump, the main purpose was to familiarize, not to fight, and this operation did not need Du Yuming to personally carry a large amount of equipment into battle.

Huang Changsheng personally supervised the atmosphere of the plane at the control tower, all the personnel were on standby, and when the appointed time arrived, all the soldiers boarded the plane.

Nearly 100 planes took off after taxiing at the airport, and the scene was vast and spectacular, and it was the first time in the history of the Chinese Air Force that so many planes had taken off at the same time to carry out tasks, and only a dozen pilots in the entire Air Force were on standby at the base in case of other emergencies.

"Report to the commander, all planes are taking off normally! It takes about two hours to arrive at the destination before our plane can return normally! ”

"Four hours...... Hope nothing goes wrong! ”

The flight time of four hours is also a difficult task for their pilots, and the most important thing is that there are no airfields on this route, and in the event of problems, there is no other airfield to choose an emergency landing.

Nervous...... Expect......

Huang Changsheng didn't know what his mood was at this time, he had never been so nervous when he was training before! Maybe Du Yuming is here this time, Du Yuming is parachuting for the first time, and he is just worried about Du Yuming's safety.

Overall, the aircraft is certainly not as weak as imagined, once the aircraft is produced on a large scale, the standardized process is up to standard, and it is not too much of a technical problem, and the performance of the aircraft is still quite reliable.

The two-hour wait was a long one, and there were no fighters in the air force formations to escort them! It's not that they don't want to escort, it's that they don't have extra pilots, on the contrary, the area they fly to is the North-West, which is relatively safe.

At this time, on the plane, the recruits had already vomited, vomiting was contagious, at first only one soldier was vomiting, but the cabin was a confined space, and after a while, the complex smell spread in the cabin, coupled with the roar of the plane, almost all the recruits did not avoid it.

"It's a pity that smoking is not allowed on the plane, otherwise it must be cool to have one!"

A veteran frowned and yelled at his companion.

"I want to take a sip right now, I'm sure I can drink half a bottle of sweet potato roast in one breath!"

The veterans were calm, although the smell in the cabin was very bad, but they had also experienced this, and after a while, the opening of the cabin was their time of relief, and they looked forward to the moment of parachuting, which was what they most expected after their two-hour arduous journey.

On Du Yuming's plane, Du Yuming's face was embarrassed at this time, he was not dizzy, but he was a little afraid of heights! For him to be able to hold back for his first flight, it was already a rare thing to be able to hold back.

Next to Du Yuming, a veteran handed Du Yuming a cigarette.

"No smoking in the cabin!" Du Yuming reminded the veteran that as an officer, he must lead by example.

"Commander, I have already asked the pilot, there are not many problems with smoking in the cabin, the cabin we are in is a tin box, there are no precision parts, and the cab is not allowed to smoke!"

The veterans have long been familiar with the pilots, and the ban on smoking in the plane is an order made up by themselves, the purpose is to fear that a group of people will dirty their plane, and they have to clean it themselves, so not smoking on the plane is an order for most soldiers, but those who are familiar with it know very well that there is no such order.

Du Yuming took the cigarette from the veteran's hand suspiciously, he really couldn't help it, not because he was addicted to cigarettes, but because he didn't divert his attention, he was likely to behave the same as the recruit, when the time came to parachute, he didn't know if his legs listened to the call.

"Really?"

"Really, I can't pit anyone I can command you, what if you lock me up!"

You can actually smoke and drink alcohol on the plane, but most soldiers don't know it, and only a few soldiers know the rules.
