Looking at the silent sound of the entire tower, Geng Qinghua coughed lightly and continued, "Our ancestors have long warned us that even if our homeland is big, we will perish, and if the world is safe, we will be in danger. Now we can't close the door. We have a life of our own. I think our comrades are very clear about what it means to fall behind."

"This ultra-low-altitude surprise visit exercise, the remote warning radar station is in vain. I give you two days. Before I leave Lingshui Base, the person in charge of the warning radar must come up with a rectification plan." Geng Qinghua said to Ning Lei with a heavy face.

"Ning Lei, I'll give you ten minutes to change your military uniform and then come to my room."

After saying that, Geng Qinghua took a large number of reporters and other entourage members away from the tower.

Ning Lei stood there and pondered for a while, looked up at the staff in the tower who didn't dare to show off his atmosphere, and smiled gently and said, "It's not a demerit. If there is any, it will be corrected. If there is no, it will be encouraged. If there is no, it will be helpful. If there is no, it will be safe. Everyone will go back to work with peace of mind."

Turning around and leaving the command hall of the airport, he just turned around and the remote warning radar station manager Jiang Baoxu trotted and chased after him.

"Ning Team, Ning Team wait." Jiang Baoxu shouted in a low voice.

Ning Lei stopped and turned around and looked at Jiang Baoxu with inquiring eyes.

"Team Ning, you are engaged in flight and you also know that ultra-low altitude penetration uses the Earth's own curvature, which is completely unsolvable for long-range radar stations. The leader asked us to come up with a rectification plan within two days, this, this..."

After several words, Jiang Baoxu did not say this bluntly that this violated scientific laws and common sense.

Ning Lei waved his hand and said, "Don't be anxious first. I'll go to the leader's side immediately. The leader is not an unreasonable person. If you have any questions, I'll explain them in detail when I come back."

After hearing Ning Lei say this, Jiang Baoxu had no choice but to sigh and nod helplessly.

When I returned to the room, I changed my flight suits and used them to be used by Ning Lei to serve as a hotel and to entertain the independent barracks of my brothers.

Knocking at the door, Geng Qinghua's secretary opened the door, and saw that it was Ning Lei, and whispered, "The Chief is waiting for you in the inner room."

"Uncle Geng. Why did you think about it and come down to inspect?" Ning Lei looked at Geng Qinghua and changed back to casual clothes. He was sitting on a chair with Feng Ji button open and drinking tea, so he changed to the tone of his younger generation.

"If you want to drink it, go to pour it yourself." Geng Qinghua pointed to the teapot on the tea table.

"The talks with the Soviet Union collapsed." Geng Qinghua said.

"We have explained in detail that the F14 fighter jets received by the Republic are private donations from patriotic overseas Chinese in Hong Kong. They have nothing to do with the official government of the Republic. The Republic will maintain its independent foreign policy in the present or future."

"But the Soviets did not believe it and believed that Qilian Mountain was the spokesperson of the domestic military." Geng Qinghua said.

"In order to avoid the Soviet Union's misunderstanding that we have formed an alliance with the United States, it has put unnecessary pressure on the northern border defense line. Some people in the military proposed to select the location of the F14 fighter jets and A-7 attack aircraft to be sealed or handed over to several major domestic scientific research institutes to dismantle scientific research." Geng Qinghua raised his hand and drank most of the tea in his hand in one sip.

"Uncle Geng..." Ning Lei just started and was interrupted by Geng Qinghua's wave.

"There are many lessons to us when Chairman Jiang had taught us the most indiscriminate martial arts. There are still high-level officials who have judged this."

"We propose that as long as Vietnam returns the waters north of Yongshu Reef and its illegally occupied islands and reefs in the Republic, we will deploy the F14 fighter jets and A-7 attack aircraft south of the Yangtze River."

"However, the Soviets rejected our request, believing that the Nansha Islands issue is Vietnam's internal affairs and that the Soviet Union is not suitable for participation." Geng Qinghua said with a laugh.

"You went to Hong Kong, and you didn't see the report yesterday by the Soviet TASS and the Vietnamese People's Daily. Vietnam imported a fleet of Su22 and MiG23 from the Soviet Union."

"Xiao Wu, bring yesterday's briefing." Geng Qinghua shouted to the secretary outside.

Ning Lei took the briefing handed over by Wu Jun and read it carefully.

The official mouthpiece of the Soviet Union, TASS, finally expressed his own views after being silent about the 8.09 air battle in Nansha for nearly a month.

TASS first denies Ning Lei's record in Nansha 1vs6 and adopts the official statement from Vietnam, losing 5 fighters, 2 Su22 attack aircraft and 3 MiG23 fighters in Nansha air combat.

However, TASS emphasized that the Nansha 8.09 Air Fighting Republic military dispatched six F14 fighters and ambushed on the normal patrol route of the Su-22 attack aircraft. The MiG-23 fighter that rushed to rescue was also shot down by the f14 fighter's shameless sneak attack tactics.

At the end of the article, TASS also clearly pointed out that according to US sources, at least 6 test pilots of Grumman Aerospace Group work at Lingshui Base in Hainan, the Republic. The implication is that the Nansha air battle was not Ning Lei at all, and the Vietnamese Air Force's opponent is American.

Ning Lei smiled bitterly and put down the briefing. It was just right for the Soviet Union to release the official report on the Nansha Air War. The flight instructor of the A-7 attack aircraft had just landed at Lingshui Airport. This kind of thing could only be more and more darker. The Soviets successfully muddled the water.

After turning a page of the briefing, Ning Lei saw the official report of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, which signed with the Soviet Union, that each introduced a flight regiment of MiG23 fighter jets and Su22 attack aircraft.

"Uncle Geng, Vietnam is obviously expanding its military preparations. What is the attitude above now? Or not?" Ning Lei asked after closing the briefing in his hand.

"We have all put the two volunteer pilots from the Soviet Union back. Do you think you should fight or not?" Geng Qinghua asked back.

Ning Lei lowered his head and thought for a while and said, "Looking at the official report of TASS, the Soviets tried their best to drag the Americans into the water in the Nansha air battle. In addition to the face factor, does it mean that the Soviet Union does not intend to make it too stiff with us? We quietly put the Soviet pilot back, which gave the Soviet Union a tacit signal."

"But Vietnam, a protection country, was beaten up. As a big brother, you can't watch it. There is no sign of any statement. The air force equipment exported to Vietnam by two flight regiments should be sold and delivered half-sale. I think the chances of the Soviet Union continuing to dispatch volunteer pilots in the future will not be very high. The situation in Nansha for a period of time in the future will be almost the same as the later situation in the Korean battlefield back then. We should promote peace with each other." Ning Lei's tone became affirmative at the end of his speech.

After hearing Ning Lei say this, Geng Qinghua laughed and nodded, "No, not bad, I've made great progress recently, unlike before, I was just flying."

Seeing Geng Qinghua feeling very well, Ning Lei took the opportunity to mention the long-range warning radar to Geng Qinghua.

Geng Qinghua pointed at Ning Lei and waved his hand repeatedly, saying, "Ning Lei. You really can't help but praise. Uncle Geng has been working in the Navy for half his life, and he still doesn't know this common sense."

"Go out from me later. Go to the stationmaster of the long-range alert radar station and tell him that it is not difficult to ensure the safety of Lingshui Airport in low-altitude penetration. One is the cruise of high-altitude early warning aircraft. The other is the construction of a large number of cutting-edge radar stations, such as Nanzi Island in the Twin Reefs." Geng Qinghua said with a smile.

Ning Lei suddenly realized that Geng Qinghua planned to build momentum in the military and emphasized the importance of Nanzi Island, the Twin Cluster Reef, to the Republic under the new situation of great development of international military equipment.

In the 1980s, the air force's autonomy was not strong yet and was greatly influenced by the army. In specific battle tactics, they all revolve around the army. Similar to the US Navy, the air force had the right to initiate an independent battle, which was basically something that even the Air Force could not even dare to imagine.

Geng Qinghua insisted on launching the Nansha Campaign, in addition to defending the territory, to strengthen the independence of the navy and air force and to align with the mainstream international military ideas, and at the same time, to allow the senior army leaders to re-understand the role of the navy and air force, as well as the limitations of the army itself.

Geng Qinghua and Ning Lei talked about the various considerations of the Republic’s senior management about the Nansha Islands in detail, and then changed the subject and said, “Ning Lei, there is something that Uncle Geng thought about for a long time but couldn’t figure it out. After the little guy in your family donated the F14 fighter jet, he donated the A-7 attack aircraft. What did he think?”

Ning Lei suddenly remembered Liang Yuan and said, "The selfless behavior has always made people suspicious." That lazy expression.

"How to say it, I have asked him about this, but this reason sounds a bit..." Ning Lei frowned and thought about how to speak.

"Talk directly, what can I say to Uncle Geng?" Geng Qinghua became curious.

"Xiaoyuan said that because his family is studying gas turbine power generation, whether it is the research and development of gas turbines or the response to the national call, or the construction of a power plant, it will definitely use countless oil in the future, and it is possible to consume tens of thousands of tons a day."

Currently, the gas engine laboratory has made the Spey gas turbine, and it can consume 72 tons of fuel in one day after operating at full power. Generally speaking, based on the development intensity of foreign aircraft engines or gas turbines, it is really normal to get more than 10 units to do the test together. This means that 700 tons of fuel will be consumed in one day.

Gas turbines can burn low-quality diesel, while aviation kerosene burned by aircraft engines is more expensive than gasoline. According to Western engine standards, 150-hour test drive, 300-hour test drive, and 500-hour fixed test drive. When the fuel will increase to 6,700 yuan per ton in the future, it will be scary to the R&D expenses alone.

Ning Lei briefly introduced the situation of the gas turbine in Shengjing Science and Technology Park to Geng Qinghua.

Geng Qinghua has carefully read all the detailed information about Liang Yuan and his family. In addition, he has been paying attention to naval construction, so he has a good understanding of the data of gas turbines. After hearing Ning Lei say this, he nodded slightly.

"Xiaoyuan said that domestic oil fields are easy to exploit onshore oil fields, and it is a business of the country. I can't be a socialist borer, so I have to rely on myself and find another way." Ning Lei thought of the smug look when Liang Yuan talked to him, and said with a wry smile.

"Uncle Geng also knew that donating the F14 fighter jet was purely an accident. If I hadn't brought up that up, Xiaoyuan would not have been involved at all. However, the reason for donating the A-7 attack aircraft was still when Xiaoyuan went to the United States to raise funds."

"Xiaoyuan's English is very good. During the time he stayed in the United States, he basically spent all kinds of information libraries in the United States. As a result, in the American geological journal, Xiaoyuan found a report on the existence of super-large-scale oil fields in the Nansha Sea of ​​South China."

At this point, Geng Qinghua couldn't understand Ning Lei's words.
