Hello, Mr. Major General - Chapter 1233
Chapter 1233 Secret Weapon
Vladimir, the second-in-command of the KGB, laughed even more heartily when he saw Huo Shaoheng’s poker face.
He patted Huo Shaoheng on the shoulder. “Let’s go over there and change. ”
Besides changing into a full set of pilot’s clothing and equipment, of course they couldn’t avoid a full body metal inspection, which was even more stringent than the security check before boarding the plane.
Even though they had agreed to Gu Nianzhi’s conditions, these people knew exactly what Huo Shaoheng did, so they still had to be wary.
It would be fine for him to personally operate and fly the MAP-160, but he absolutely couldn’t bring onto the plane any equipment that could secretly photograph or record.
After all, in terms of copying, these Huaxia Empire people were second to none on the entire blue planet.
After Gu Nianzhi came out of the metal inspection door, she also changed into a female pilot’s uniform.
It was a very handsome pilot’s jacket. The helmet appeared like an astronaut’s helmet, and there was a special pair of aviator sunglasses on it.
She had a small face to begin with, so wearing the pilot’s helmet made her face appear even smaller than the size of a palm.
When the KGB driver saw her come out, he couldn’t help reaching out his palm to gesture in front of Gu Nianzhi’s face. It really wasn’t as big as his palm!
Upon seeing this, Vladimir angrily slapped his palm away and said, “Your palm is like a bear’s paw, so of course it’s bigger than Cereus’s face! Why are you messing around?! ”
The chauffeur: “… ”
This bruised his ego!
He huffed and puffed as he climbed into the cabin of tu-160 first.
Huo Shaoheng followed behind him when boarding the plane.
Vladimir smiled as he turned around to lead Gu Nianzhi. “Cereus, come, you go in first, and I’ll be last. ”
Gu Nianzhi nodded and smiled. “Thank you, sir. ”
Her voice was soft and sweet, especially when she was talking to someone she knew. She didn’t sound pretentious, but her voice made it hard for people to get mad at her. She was a natural fire extinguishing system..
Vladimir smiled kindly as he looked at her.
Where did these people hail from?
Their methods were even more ruthless than those of the Special Operations forces.
They didn’t even bat an eye when they indifferently killed the two elite MI5 agents.
But he was becoming more and more soft-hearted towards Gu Nianzhi.
Gu Nianzhi climbed into the cabin before him.
This was her first time seeing the world in such a large nuclear strategic bomber.
It was much more spacious than the fighter planes she had seen before.
A typical fighter plane could only seat one person, and a slightly larger one could seat two.
But this tu-160 could seat four people.
The first two seats in the cockpit were for the pilot and the co-pilot, and the last two seats were for two navigators and co-operators.
One of the navigators was responsible for the operation of offensive weapons, such as launching various cruise missiles and, if necessary, dropping nuclear bombs.
The other navigation system was mainly responsible for electronic warfare, high-altitude communications, or jamming the enemy’s radar and electronic systems.
Each of the four had their own red star K-36L7000 ejection seat, which allowed them to eject from the escape hatch upward and parachute out.
Huo Shaoheng and Vladimir Sat in the two seats in front of them respectively.
Huo Shaoheng was the pilot, while Vladimir was the co-pilot.
Gu Nianzhi sat directly behind Huo Shaoheng. It was usually the seat of one of the navigation systems, so many of the dashboard controls in front of her were cruise missile control systems.
In the second seat of the navigation system, the middle-aged driver sat next to Gu Nianzhi. The console in front of him was responsible for electronic warfare and high-altitude communication systems.
However, this was only a test flight. The console in front of Gu Nianzhi and the middle-aged driver was completely useless. Only the one in front of the pilot’s seat was effective.
After Vladimir sat down in the cockpit, the canopy slowly closed.
Gu Nianzhi immediately felt her breathing grow more rapid. She didn’t have enough oxygen.
Imitating the other three people in the cockpit, she put on the oxygen mask and seat belt.
Huo Shaoheng glanced at the console in front of him first, then skillfully placed his right hand on the center lever.
Vladimir had originally wanted to explain in English, but then he rubbed his nose silently and narrowed his eyes as he said” … Major General Huo, you’re familiar with all of this already aren’t you? Then I won’t explain… ”
Upon thinking about it further, he really felt ambivalent.
The console, which was all in Russian, had no cognitive barriers in front of this major general from the Huaxia Empire. Not only was its movements standard enough to be textbook-level, but he maneuvered it also very naturally,as if he had worked maneuvered it under such conditions countless times..
How much did he covet the White Swan!
Vladimir felt both prideful and sad.
It was a pity that they couldn’t even build such a good plane themselves..
Vladimir pursed his lips, and from the corner of his eye, he quickly glanced at Gu Nianzhi, who was sitting right behind Huo Shaoheng. She was sitting diagonally behind him, but saw that she was tilting her body. Her eyes gleamed as she watched Huo Shaoheng’s every move, and the expression in her eyes made her appear like a typical “fangirl”..
This girl was too easy to read!
Vladimir’s affection for Gu Nianzhi immediately magnified!
Not only wasn’t she disdainful of men in their industry, she was virtuous and considerate, as well as used her own abilities to help him realize his dreams!
Did another girl like this exist? !
If there were, then he’d like a dozen!
As Vladimir’s thoughts ran wild, Huo Shaoheng had already familiarized himself with all the operating procedures and started to communicate with the ground control desk.
” … Road, clear. ”
” … Wind, clear. ”
..
Huo Shaoheng’s deep and steady voice reverberated in the cockpit as he went through the pre-takeoff checks one by one.
On the runway in front, a few ground crew members in gaudy bright yellow clothing made a “let’s go” hand gesture.
Huo Shaoheng waved his hand decisively and pushed the joystick forward with his right hand.
Boom!
Two balls of raging flames shot out from the engine. The white swan-like figure-160 was quickly activated and sped up on the runway.
Gu Nianzhi simply felt her seat belt suddenly tighten around her chest, and she couldn’t breathe due to the acceleration.
The speed was so fast that it took less than three minutes for the plane to go from zero to supersonic speed. Gu Nianzhi began to feel dizzy.
At that moment, the KGB driver next to her suddenly waved his arms excitedly, and was practically dancing in the cockpit.
“Yow, Yow, Yow, Yow, Yow, Yow, yow, yow! ”
“Shut up! ” Vladimir turned around and yelled at him, “Shout again and I’ll eject you right now! I mean it! ”
The middle-aged driver quickly covered his mouth with his mask and stopped shouting. However, his animated eyes flickered left and right, then finally fell on Gu Nianzhi.
After opening their communication channel, the middle-aged driver whispered into her earpiece, “Cereus, are you airsick? ”
Gu Nianzhi: ” … ”
Her entire face was buried in her helmet and mask. How did the middle-aged driver figure out that she was airsick?
But at this point, Gu Nianzhi wouldn’t tell the truth even if she was feeling dizzy.
She said calmly, “No, I’m just observing the weather. ” As she spoke, she looked out the window.
The middle-aged driver: ” … ”
Huo Shaoheng, who was in the front row, was tensely preoccupied with piloting.
He gradually exerted strength in his arms and pushed the joystick forward little by little, then pulling it up. Finally, the White Swan flew up into the air along with the airflow and soared into the sky!
The largest long-range bomber, the most powerful horsepower, the best cruise missile system, the most flexible fuselage, and the smoothest operating system.
It wasn’t completely controlled by the electronic system, but by the semi-mechanical console, so the pilot could exert greater subjective initiative.
He was truly piloting a plane, instead of operating a plane on a display screen like when playing video games.
Unfortunately, most airplanes now had fully automatic flight systems, so pilots piloted airplanes almost exactly the same as in video games.
In reality, many flight schools used flight simulation systems in the form of video games.
A gaming master was also likely to become a capable pilot.
But an upper limit existed, and that was the upper limit of the autopilot system.
As for the semi-mechanized operating system, there was no limit in terms of flying.
The better the piloting skills of the pilot are, the more he would be able to perform anything with the aircraft in his hands.
Of course, when people of mediocre piloting skills are piloting, the autopilot system would be able to improve the pilot’s piloting skills.
However, when faced with a true human genius, the autpilot system would still be greatly inferior.
At this moment, Huo Shaoheng displayed the blueprint of a flying genius flying freely in the blue sky.
Every turn he made, every technical accomplishment, was the realization of countless flying instructors’ dreams!
Vertical 90-degree pull-up, dive, 360-degree turn spiral, the beautiful figure-160 was like a white swan dancing in the blue sky after waking up from a deep sleep.
The entire Air Force secret base was stunned by Huo Shaoheng’s piloting skills.
Countless cameras and cell phones aimed at the little white dot in the sky that appeared far or near from time to time.
“Oh my God! Oh my God! It’s a series that will last a lifetime! ”
“Turns out you can actually pilot that way! ”
“Has he really never operated the tu-160 before? ! ”
“This is his first time?! His first time?! ”
“Jeez! I’m on my kness! If we’re going to fight against their country in the future, don’t call me! I refuse to become his enemy! ”
..
A series of exclamations came from the mouths of ace pilots, and the meaning of this was even more symbolic.
Huo Shaoheng had no idea about the kind of sensation and attention he had attracted.
He was simply fully immersed in piloting, immersed in piloting the white swan long-range nuclear strategic bomber!
Because he might never get a second chance!
Her eyes fixed towards Huo Shaoheng’s direction, Gu Nianzhi tilted her body.
In the eyes of Vladimir and the driver, Gu Nianzhi was staring at her fiancé lovingly.
In reality, her attention was completely focused on the scrolling data displayed on the dashboard in front of Huo Shaoheng.
Rows of numbers flashed through her eyes, and she couldn’t take her eyes off them.
Gu Nianzhi didn’t understand Russian, but she could still recognize the Arabic numerals.
With so many parameters, she memorized them all with her amazing photographic memory.
She had carefully looked at every corner of the cockpit and stored them in her camera-like brain.
This was the secret weapon that the metal detection door could never detect!
