Chapter 1380 707th Armored Brigade

A short- and medium-range transport plane landed at Lunan Airport.This modified aircraft with a range of 1200 kilometers was improved and modified on an old aircraft that had been in service for eight years.

Some improvements were made in terms of comfort and navigation stability, and the aircraft was changed from a cargo-carrying aircraft to a manned aircraft.

The reason why he was equipped with a special plane was because most of the military factories in the Southern District were within a thousand kilometers of the Lunan area.His job requires frequent trips to factories and the military. Taking civil aviation is inconvenient, and a lot of time will be wasted on the road. As for land transportation, not to mention, even high-speed rail is not as convenient as a private plane.

Li Mu's level is not high enough to fly on a special plane. If he is, he can use the extremely comfortable Bombardier business jet for commuting.In view of this, a small modification was made above, and a special plane was modified based on an old military version of the Y-7.

Although it is not as good as Bombardier, the maximum speed is only more than 500 kilometers per hour, and it is a propeller engine, it is still better than nothing.

After Gray Goose took off, Li Mu picked up the relevant information and started looking through it. Wang Guoqing and Su Xiaobing were talking there, and they were all talking about the topic of inspection.

There is an armored unit stationed in Bailian. Li Mu wants to go there and find out what the troops, especially the lower-level officers and soldiers, expect of the new generation of main tanks. At the same time, he wants to discuss the use of main battle tanks in future ground combat with the commander of the unit, Chen Tashan. .

The 707th Armored Brigade is an ace unit. It comes from a wealthy family. Its leader Chen Tashan is a well-known armored general in the army. He has very rich experience in the use of armored units.It should be pointed out that during the joint anti-drug operation, the armored unit that was strengthened by the No. 13 Special Police Detachment commanded by Li Jiujiu was a large-scale battalion led by Chen Tashan.

In other words, Chen Tashan is so far the only military cadre with actual combat experience among the division and brigade-level commanders of the armored forces.

An hour later, Gray Goose landed at Bailian Airport.

Chen Tashan only brought two vehicles and waited there early. During the joint anti-drug operation, he was Li Mu's old subordinate. He knew that Li Mu didn't like welcoming people to and from such a scene, so he didn't bring any brigade leaders with him. He came over with a few staff officers. In addition to his car, he only brought a camouflage Leopard.

He squeezed time and arrived at Bailian Airport an hour early and waited for a full hour.

After Gray Goose stopped, Chen Tashan quickly got in the car and went over, then quickly got out of the car and greeted it.But Gray Goose opened the rear hatch, and a tattered black Cheetah 2030D drove out. Then he saw Li Mu and Wang Guoqing stepping down while talking and stepping on the pedal.

Including the major driving the car, there were three people in total. As expected, the old leader kept the car simple.

"report!"

Chen Tashan, who looked a little fat at 170 pounds, ran over and stood at attention and saluted, "Reporting to the commander! Chen Tashan, leader of the 707th Armored Brigade, reports to you! Sir, welcome to visit and inspect!"

Li Mu returned the courtesy, "Take a break."

"Yes!"

Chen Tashan stepped forward quickly, stretched out his hands, and said with an excited smile, "Old leader, I really didn't expect you to come. I'm very excited."

"Old Chen, don't be so classy. We have performed missions together, that's all. I'm not an old leader." Li Mu said with a smile.

Chen Tashan said solemnly, "Old leader, you will be your subordinate for a day and be your subordinate for the rest of your life."

"Comrade you are really good at talking." Li Mu pointed at Chen Tashan, "Let's take my car and chat while we walk."

"Yes!"

Chen Tashan was very excited and followed Li Mu into the Black Panther. Wang Guoqing sat in the passenger seat and Su Xiaobing drove.Sometimes Su Xiaobing would have itchy hands and would switch places with Wang Guoqing and start driving.Those who drive military vehicles must be professional and technical soldiers, but Su Xiaobing is an officer with a professional certificate, so he can also meet the same requirements for driving military vehicles as Wang Guoqing.

The staff officers of the 707th Armored Brigade quickly got into the car. Chen Tashan's car was a Roger. He accelerated to the front to lead the way, and the camouflage Leopard followed behind.Three cars roared out of the flight area.

"Old leader, our 707 is the first batch of troops equipped with 99 tanks. The ones currently in use are the second batch, which is the latest 99G in active service. It can be said that we have the richest experience in using 99 tanks." On the car , Chen Tashan introduced the situation.

Li Mu smiled and said, "Old Chen, don't lie to me. Your 99 tanks are still the same batch of tanks, but they were all upgraded three years ago to reach the performance level of 99G."

"Well, old leader, you know it in detail." Chen Tashan was a little embarrassed.

Li Mu said, "Since I want to come over and take a look, I must have done some research. Let me tell you, don't be pretentious with me. You can report the actual situation as you wish."

"Understood, of course I know your style, old leader, and there will never be any fraud. Old leader, the 707th Brigade is the unit with the most experience in using 99 tanks. You won't deny this, right?" Chen Tashan said.

Li Mu smiled and said, "Yeah, I admit it. Old Chen, I know what you're thinking. Don't you just want to be the first to modify the new main tank? Let me tell you, it's useless for you to grind against me. I'm in the equipment research and development and procurement department. The deputy director of the committee does not have the authority to decide which unit will be equipped with the new main tank first."

Chen Tashan was always shy when his thoughts were read. He was so thin-skinned that he refused to give good things. How could he be embarrassed?

There is no doubt that the first batch of troops modified with new main tanks will undoubtedly be higher than other troops in terms of overall level. This is not only recognized by the superior leadership, but also very good news for the improvement of the combat effectiveness of the troops.

But I have never heard of second-rate troops being equipped with new equipment first before first-rate troops.

The 707th Armored Brigade was the first unit equipped with 99 tanks. This was an honor left to Chen Tashan by his predecessors. Now that he is sitting in the leadership position, he must at least continue this honor, and whether he can make this unit more effective. Going up a level, personally, is related to his future.

He was already a senior college cadre. As he moved up the ranks, no matter the military rank or job level, he would face a hurdle that most people couldn't overcome. He obviously didn't want to reach his age and retire with a consolation prize (director).
