Chapter 616 Recruiting

Recruiting a pilot is very similar to recruiting a soldier, and the process is basically the same. However, because of the particularity of the pilot profession, it places high demands on students' IQ levels and physical fitness, especially as the military begins to accelerate into the era of third-generation aircraft.

If the process is different, recruitment is usually carried out on the eve of the college entrance examination, because pilots must be trained by colleges and universities, and graduates are cadres. This is completely different from the majority of high school graduates, college students, and young people of working age who directly enlist in the army for military service. different.

The difference now is that this year's national pilot recruitment has ended, and the selected high school graduates have entered aviation colleges or local commissioned training colleges to start their first semester of study.

Li Zhan's task is to select the little flying sharks from these people and throw them into the flying shark preparation class. The Air Force opened its mouth and cooperated with multiple military and civilian ministries to facilitate this matter. From the perspective of the procedures, it was very troublesome and difficult, but it was still done with all its efforts.

After accepting the mission, Li Zhan made a new request: He hoped to expand the scope to other local colleges and universities, that is, to this year's freshmen who exceeded the score line but were not admitted to military academies or recruited to fly.

His reasoning is simple—a larger base helps improve quality.

This is a pie in the sky for this year's freshmen, and it is an honor for local colleges and universities. Naturally, there will be no resistance. Winter recruitment is still in effect this year, with half of it starting from September to December, so freshmen will actually encounter the military recruitment soon after entering school, so the process is simpler.

The assistant assigned to Li Zhan is Cheng Da, who has rich experience in recruiting aircraft and soldiers. Chengda, who had been a regiment leader, had been responsible for recruiting aircraft and soldiers for several years, so it was obviously very suitable to be Li Zhan's assistant. Li Zhan knew what kind of pilot the Flying Shark Army wanted, and Cheng Da knew what kind of person could be a pilot. The two swords combined were perfect.

His superiors gave Li Zhan a great deal of autonomy, so he could carry out recruitment work freely. He can go anywhere in the country except Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan.

During this process, the powerful female pilots greeted him in various ways and forms, but he simply put them aside decisively and made up his mind to become a legend in the hearts of female pilots.

Li Zhan chose Beichun City as his first stop, which was an expected and reasonable decision.

Beichun City is 500 kilometers away from Mufu Island in a straight line, six hours by highway and three hours by high-speed rail. Considering that it would be very troublesome to travel around without a car, and Li Zhan was very dissatisfied with the low work efficiency in the local area, so he decided to go by road.

Pei Lei was ordered to inspect and repair the Land Cruiser commuter car he drove a few days in advance, made all preparations, and then drove off with Li Zhan and Cheng Da. A broken car like the Land Cruiser is actually very durable. The most common problems that many people encounter after driving it for more than ten or twenty years are probably tire replacement and paint touch-up. In addition, the Beichun area is the home base of Yiqi Madian. The domestically produced Land Cruiser is produced here, and there are many such models in the local area.

There are a lot of Japanese and Korean cars in the entire Northeast region, especially Fengtian.

Pei Lei was very excited to be able to go on a business trip with the chief instructor. As a driver, non-commissioned officer staff officer and squad leader of a small convoy, he was subsidized for business trips, including food subsidies, communication subsidies, travel expenses, etc., and he had three job allowances, which he received every day. A lot of money. In this way, he can send more money to his family, take care of his brother's tuition and other things, and then save money to buy a house for his parents to retire in. Then he can continue to work in the army with peace of mind for the rest of his life.

However, Pei Lei still doesn't know that this business trip will be a very high test for him, and all aspects will be tested.

On the highway to Beichun, Pei Lei joked, "Mr. Li, do you think I can still take part in the recruitment next year? I plan to continue taking the military exam next year."

Li Zhan said, "No chance, you are already in your fifth year."

If you serve for more than three years, you can no longer take the exam. There is only one way to become an officer: promotion.

"Yes, I forgot." Pei Lei was stunned and patted his forehead.

Li Zhan said with a smile, "If you really don't want to give up the opportunity to fly a plane, you can usually train with the pilot. There is no problem with this. When your conditions really attract attention, it will not be enough to open a separate channel for you. impossible."

"This is too difficult." Pei Lei smiled awkwardly.

Cheng Da said, "I'm afraid there are people who are interested. My old army division commander, do you know what he did before flying a plane? Lao Li, I guess you can't guess it either."

"Aircraft maintenance?" Li Zhan gave an answer. Zhang Sihai, the teacher of the Second Division whom he respected very much, worked in aircraft maintenance and later became a pilot through recruitment.

"No, guess again." Cheng Da shook his head and said, which made Li Zhan interested.

Li Zhan thought for a while and said, "Ground staff?"

"no."

Pei Lei said, "Is it a civil servant engaged in meteorology?"

"No."

"Then I can't guess." Li Zhan said, spreading his hands.

Chengda laughed loudly, and then said mysteriously as if he was telling something earth-shattering, "He is from the Army Artillery Corps. He used to be a gunner. He became a pilot when the army was recruiting."

"What?" Li Zhan was shocked.

He has met the commander of the Big Red Eagle Division. That guy was actually Lao Lu before, and he was also an artilleryman? This has something to do with pilots! Li Zhan knows the commander of the Dahongying Division well. Among the division-level cadres, he is the best at flying the J-10. He has taught many combat subjects of the J-10. He himself is almost the same as the J-10 fighter. Experts drew the equal sign. The Big Red Eagle Division's rapid growth from a first-line second-class unit to an ace unit has a lot to do with him.

That guy turned out to be an artilleryman in the Army!

Chengda was very satisfied with the reaction of Li Zhan and Pei Lei. He said proudly, "Are you awesome? A typical example of self-taught talent. It is said that in order not to miss this good talent like him, the Air Force carried out a special recruitment. Our division commander's education is junior high school. The theoretical level of junior college undergraduates who were gradually introduced to correspondence courses may not be eye-catching, but their practical experience is very few in the Air Force system.”

"This is really a god." Li Zhan admired him sincerely. After all, he also graduated with a bachelor's degree in ideological and political education from Huaqing University. What about him, a junior high school student, do you accept it?

Cheng Da, who was sitting in the second row, patted Pei Lei on the shoulder and said, "So as long as you are capable enough, your ideals will definitely come true. The military environment is definitely fairer than the local environment, boy, come on."

"This is too difficult." Pei Lei smiled bitterly and shook his head.

They talked all the way and stopped in the service area to rest every two hours. At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Li Zhan and his party checked into the hotel belonging to the Aeronautical University. The hotel is located on the main road in the old town, which is a very busy area. It took more than ten minutes to walk the last two kilometers alone.

Konghang University had already received a notice from their superiors, and had already sent a regimental-level staff officer in charge of student affairs to wait, and arranged everything for Li Zhan and others. Dinner would be held directly in the restaurant of the hotel. , standard work meal. Also attending the reception was a leader from the security area. Then the leaders of the Armed Forces spent their own money to buy a few extra dishes and bottles of good wine, insisting on persuading them to drink. Later, they gave up after seeing that Li Zhan and others were very determined.

The leader of the security area appeared because Li Zhan also planned to search local colleges and universities in the Beichun area to get a feel for the situation first according to the pre-recruitment method to see if there are any college students who meet the conditions. This job must be done by the security area. cooperation. The final work needs to be done by the Ministry of People's Armed Forces at the grassroots level, and the higher-level leadership agency of the Ministry of People's Armed Forces is the garrison area.

Li Zhan has some understanding of local working methods but is not familiar with them. In his eyes, the police area has a strong local color. Among all levels, the three-level military institutions of provincial military region, military division (garrison area), and Ministry of People's Armed Forces are the only permanent institutions that maintain normal communication and coordination between the military system and local governments. In the eyes of most military units, especially some field mobile units, Here, these third-level units are no different from local agencies, and the top soldiers even think that they have no military flavor.

However, the role played by these three institutions cannot be underestimated. Not to mention others, they need to organize and implement the annual recruitment work. Local government departments at all levels cooperate to continuously provide fresh blood for the troops.

At the dinner table, Li Zhan said that he would go to Konghang University tomorrow. The main purpose was to have a look, and he would grasp the scale and not be too harsh. The main scope was still focused on local universities. This statement made the regiment-level staff heave a sigh of relief. He shoulders a heavy responsibility and wants to find a way to make Fei Shark pick as few people as possible.

Where is Aviation University? It is the highest institution of higher learning for our military aviation force and the only comprehensive military aviation university. It has twelve campuses distributed in six provinces. Its predecessor is the earliest aviation school of our military, and it is the boss among aviation colleges.

Judging from the names, it seems that Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics and Konghang University are similar, except that Konghang University is a military academy. In fact, this understanding is completely wrong. Beihang University and China Southern University of Aeronautics and Astronautics are local universities that train aerospace scientific research talents, while the main direction of Konghang University is to train pilots, taking into account other things.

The deputy corps-level unit is one level higher than the Flying Shark Army, so it’s no wonder that they only sent a regimental-level staff officer to receive them.

In other words, all the elites of the military's training flight talents are concentrated in the Air Aviation University. It couldn't be easier to select elites from such a group of students, but the Air Force obviously would not allow the Navy to mess around among their core force.

I won't give you more anyway, so Li Zhan simply stated in advance that he wouldn't ask for more, which would help with the work below. Otherwise, there is nothing you can do about Konghang University overtly or covertly trying to stumbling upon you.

As for the garrison area, they would of course warmly welcome Li Zhan if he could help them get a few more recruitment quotas. You must know that they have mandatory recruitment quotas every year. If you can't recruit the soldiers required by your superiors, have you made any progress this year? , and then had to be notified and criticized.

So everyone enjoyed the dinner, even though no one drank.
