Chapter 308 Can You Fly a Plane?
Lu Yao arrived at the Armed Forces Department in less than half the usual time.
They almost kicked Zheng Wenli's car so hard it went off the road.
Fortunately, the guy's car was well repaired; the pedals didn't fall off.
As soon as I entered the courtyard, I saw Ju Zhenghua already standing on the steps.
Looking up at the sky.
A Z-5 helicopter is slowly landing.
This is a helicopter manufactured by Harbin Aircraft Manufacturing Plant in Heilongjiang Province in 58.
Mass production began in 63; it was the first generation of multi-purpose helicopters.
It is also the mainstay aircraft of the military today.
These are the types of aircraft used for airborne rescue and transport.
At that time, the aircraft manufacturing plant was abbreviated as "Harbin Aircraft Manufacturing Co., Ltd." and its code name was Factory 122.
The plane landed at this moment, and its 25-meter length made it appear like a behemoth in the courtyard.
Now that a major accident has occurred, the military has not only dispatched aircraft but also a medical rescue team to accompany them.
Ju Zhenghua took Li Fengxiao onto the plane and then called Lu Yao to come up as well.
Jiang Baocai, as the tour guide, also boarded the plane.
On the plane, Jiang Baocai recounted the internal discord within the militia unit once again.
Ju Zhenghua was so angry that he kept slapping his thigh:
"This Wang Tieshan has really disappointed me! I originally wanted them to get to know each other better and do some training together. Who knew he would be so resistant?"
Lu Yao didn't speak, he just looked out the window.
Flying over the city, it's indeed very close to Dahuan Mountain by taking a straight route.
Once inside the mountains, Jiang Baocai was called to the cockpit and asked to help him find the location.
Around noon, we found the mountain range behind Wohu Ridge.
After circling around for a while, they spotted some figures on a hillside.
Jiang Baocai pointed down and said, "It's right there; we can land now."
The pilot looked down at the terrain:
"No, the slope is too steep and the snow is too deep to land. We can only take you to the foot of the mountain, and then you can walk up."
Lu Yao heard this and peeked over to look.
If I land at the foot of the mountain and then climb halfway up, I might be able to get there faster, but the medical team includes doctors in their forties and fifties, as well as female nurses, so it will probably be dark by the time they get up.
Then he pointed to a flat rock protruding from the snow diagonally below:
"We can land there."
Pilot Wang Lei looked back at Lu Yao:
"That place is too small to land in."
Lu Yao nodded: "Yes, you can try."
Wang Lei looked at him again, clearly dissatisfied:
"You know how to fly a plane? What if it veers off course and crashes? Can you take responsibility for that?"
"If you fall down the mountain and miss the best rescue time, and someone dies as a result, can you take responsibility?"
Wang Lei panicked:
"What responsibility do I bear? I have already fulfilled my duty."
Lu Yao pointed to the wounded lying in the snow on the hillside and said coldly, "You failed in your duty. Look at them. If you had delayed them for two hours, they might have lost their lives!"
Seeing the wounded on the ground, Wang Lei was also anxious.
But looking again at the flat stone that Lu Yao pointed out, he still shook his head:
"Impossible. The terrain is too flat, the mountain winds are too strong, and the helicopter is too close to the mountain peaks and cliffs. In such a complex situation, if the helicopter were to overturn or the rotor blades were to hit the cliffs, it would cause an accident."
Lu Yao knew that no matter what he said, the other person wouldn't listen to him now.
However, in order to buy time, we must argue our case logically.
Seeing that Wang Lei is also a red-faced man, why not use reverse psychology?
Then, with a look of utter disdain, he said, "How did someone like you even get into the ranks of pilots? Can't you land in such a huge area? Do you know how many people will die if you delay by two or three hours? You're trying to protect yourself and avoid making mistakes, but you're treating human life like dirt, you know that? It's worse than crashing a plane!"
Wang Lei indeed became popular:
"Who are you calling a brat? You try!"
"I'll come, you get up, I'll land!"
How could Wang Lei simply hand over the driving rights to a stranger?
The co-pilot, who was also the navigator, quickly tried to dissuade him:
"Stop arguing, young man. It's really not going to happen. Are we professionals worse than you?"
Lu Yao asked, "So you're not even going to give it a try? Dozens of lives might be lost just because you're cowardly."
"Who are you calling a coward?"
Wang Lei was so angry he was about to pull out his gun.
Lu Yao asked him, "Then do you dare to try? If you don't dare to hand the plane over to me, then I'll direct you to fly it. If there's an accident, I'll die right in front of you!"
As he spoke, he swiftly drew Wang Lei's pistol and chambered a bullet.
Everyone was shocked.
Ju Zhenghua quickly called out, "Xiao Lu, stop fooling around!"
But Lu Yao handed the gun to Wang Lei:
"If I land in the wrong place, you can shoot me dead!"
Wang Lei glanced at Lu Yao, perhaps feeling intimidated by his imposing presence.
"Okay, tell me, how can we make it fall down?"
Lu Yao stared ahead.
"Maintain your current altitude, correct to the right by five degrees... Watch out for that protruding rock at your one o'clock position. Turn to the side... Okay, now slow down, reduce your descent speed, just maintain 0.5 meters per second."
Everyone on the plane held their breath and stared ahead.
Wang Lei landed under Lu Yao's guidance.
"Adjust the fuselage again, nose facing west, land... hold steady... move closer to the right first, then another half meter... okay, vertical landing!"
"Click"
The aircraft paused briefly before landing smoothly.
The landing gear is symmetrical on both sides, with about half a meter of extra space on each side.
The propeller was only three feet away from the mountain.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Immediately, Ju Zhenghua couldn't help but cheer:
"Great, your driving skills are really good!"
Wang Lei's face turned completely red.
He was really on edge just now, and a little dazed.
Fortunately, Lu Yao's guidance was quite detailed.
The navigator also admires the hard work involved:
"Young man, you really know how to fly a plane?"
Lu Yao smiled, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
In his previous life, he crashed into three helicopters, honing his eyesight and piloting skills through sheer hard work.
However, there was a certain risk involved in him directing others to drive.
It was also because he was bold, meticulous, and willing to take risks.
Wang Lei glanced at Lu Yao without saying anything, but his eyes clearly showed that he was convinced.
There was no time for anyone to say anything; they quickly jumped off the plane.
The hillside was steep, and the ground was covered with bottomless snow. The medical team members scrambled down as soon as they came down.
The mountain wind howled, making it difficult to walk even on flat ground, let alone on this 45-degree sloping hillside.
Ju Zhenghua tripped and fell down as he came down.
Li Fengxiao slid down more than 100 meters before stopping and climbing back up.
Lu Yao asked Jiang Baocai to help Ju Zhenghua.
Then he went straight to Zhang Zongshan.
We need to find out the details.
Suddenly a weak voice called out to him:
"Is it... Tuwazi?"
Lu Yao turned around and saw a little girl wearing an animal skin robe sitting in the snow with her hands tied behind her back.
Her head was wrapped in a headscarf, leaving only half of her face exposed.
But those bright, clear eyes looked so familiar.
Lu Yao rushed over and pulled off the headscarf covering half of her face.
Sure enough, I knew it just by the sound.
She is Imana, the Oroqen girl who fought bravely against wolves in the mountains!
