Chapter 454 Shen Fei, the Republic Air Force’s Wet Nurse

Jiangcheng is actually not far from Fengtian, where Shen Fei is located.

It’s just over 300 kilometers.

In fact, many people from other provinces regard the three northeastern provinces as the same region.

People from the three northeastern provinces usually feel that they are not far from home once they reach Shanhaiguan.

Even though Shanhaiguan is still thousands of kilometers away from Erbin, the capital of Heilongjiang Province.

However, cultural identity, eating habits, and the same Dachazi accent make Heilongjiang, Jilin, Liaoning and eastern Mongolia a whole (Bincheng is an exception).

Of course.

This situation is not limited to the Northeast.

Similar to this is the F4 in the southwest region - the four brothers of Guizhou, Yunlin, Sichuan and Chongqing.

Jiang Chen is from Qianzhou.

However, if he meets people from Yunnan Province, Sichuan Province and Chongqing City in other places, he will also regard them as half-fellow villagers.

Because these three provinces and one city have great similarities in eating habits, accents, and even personalities.

It makes sense to be seen as a whole.

This is also why after Jiang Chen took the high-speed rail from Jiangcheng to Fengtian, he felt that he was not going from one provincial capital to another, but was in the same province.

"You are classmate Jiang Chen, right?"

Fengtian High-Speed ​​Railway Station.

Jiang Chen had just walked out of the exit carrying a camouflage luggage bag when two soldiers wearing light blue 07-style air force winter uniforms came up to him one after the other.

The man walking in front was probably in his thirties, with two bars and one star on his shoulder straps.

His military rank is major.

The man following behind him was probably in his twenties.

Sergeant rank.

"Hello, hello. I'm Cheng Ziang, the security officer of the Shenfei Guard Battalion. I was ordered to pick you up at the high-speed railway station. I heard that you were just discharged from the hospital today, so I rushed over. Thank you for your hard work."

As soon as the other party walked up to Jiang Chen, he took the initiative to extend his hand.

Jiang Chen quickly saluted the other party, then shook his hand and said, "Thank you for coming to pick me up, Commander. I can actually take a taxi by myself."

Cheng Ziang smiled and said, "What's the trouble? You coming here has helped us solve a big problem."

"Xiao Li, help classmate Jiang carry his luggage to the car first." He turned around and said to the sergeant.

The sergeant heard this.

He quickly walked over and tried to take the bag from Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen hurriedly said, "I'll do it myself, no need to trouble the squad leader."

"It's not a trouble, it's not a trouble. A guest is a guest, and you are a distinguished guest of our Shenfei. The chiefs and leaders have given me a death order, requiring me to treat you well." Cheng Ziang said with a smile.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen did not insist any more.

"Are you hungry? If you are, why don't we go eat something first and then go back?" Cheng Ziang asked again.

Jiang Chen waved his hand and said, "I'm not hungry. I ate in Jiangcheng before coming here. Let's go back first."

"That's fine." Cheng Ziang said, "You pilots are very precious, you can't just eat these things outside."

"Our car is parked in the parking lot. Xiao Li will go drive first. We will wait for him here for a few minutes."

Jiang Chen nodded.

Then he asked curiously, "There are so many people at the exit, how do you know that the person you are picking up must be me?"

The high-speed railway from Jiangcheng to Fengtian has not been in operation for long.

And because there is no speed limit.

The distance of more than 70 kilometers was covered in just minutes.

Therefore, almost all passengers traveling between the two places choose to take the high-speed rail instead of taking ordinary trains or long-distance buses, let alone planes.

This has resulted in almost every train on this high-speed railway being fully booked.

"You are the only one among so many people wearing a military uniform, and it's our Air Force winter uniform, and the epaulettes are cadet epaulettes. I think it would be hard not to recognize you." Cheng Ziang explained with a smile.

Jiang Chen finally reacted.

I have been wearing hospital gowns these past few days, and only changed into the 07-style air force winter uniform today, so I didn't react for a while.

The two chatted for a while before a military green SUV drove up to them.

Cheng Ziang took two quick steps and took the initiative to open the car door for Jiang Chen.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen had no choice but to get in the car.

Only after Cheng Ziang sat in the passenger seat did the SUV restart and merge into the traffic.

Shenfei is not far from the high-speed railway station, only about ten kilometers away.

Located on Lingbei Road, Huanggu District, Fengtian City.

It is not far from Beiling Park.

Yes.

It is Huanggutun where Fengtian warlord Zhang Zuolin was killed by the Japanese.

Shen Fei's predecessor also had an inseparable relationship with the Zhang father and son.

In the late 1930s, Zhang Xueliang, one of the four great princes of the Republic of China, founded the Northeast Aviation Factory and built the Beiling Airport in .

then.

The Fengtian warlords were already able to produce thirty or forty kinds of aircraft parts, including fuselages, tail wings, propellers, engine mounts, some instruments, photographic equipment, etc.

They even established an air force and a series of ancillary facilities in the Northeast, such as oil depots, ammunition depots, maintenance plants, etc., which laid the foundation for the aviation industry in the three northeastern provinces.

After the September 18th Incident.

Due to the Fengtian warlords' policy of 'non-resistance'.

Not only did the three northeastern provinces fall into the hands of the enemy, but even the series of industrial bases developed by the Fengtian warlords became others' wedding clothes, including the Northeast Aviation Factory.

But twenty years later.

The aviation factory regained its vitality and was named State-owned Field No. 11.

In 1957, it was renamed the State-owned Songling Machinery Factory.

It was not until 1986 that it was officially renamed Shenyang Aircraft Manufacturing Company.

This is the end.

Shen Fei's great reputation spread throughout the entire Chinese land.

If the Air Force University of Aeronautics and Astronautics is the 'cradle of the Republic's Air Force', then Shenfei is the 'wet nurse of the Republic's Air Force'.

Because the Republic's Air Force has developed from scratch to what it is today, from having nothing and being poor to becoming the world's second largest air force. Whether it is advanced equipment, scale, and pilot talent pool, etc., it is undoubtedly the second largest in the world.

And among them.

Shen Fei made an indelible contribution.

Almost half of the domestically-made fighter jets that we are familiar with and have made outstanding achievements are developed and manufactured by Shenfei.

Even Chengfei, which is now on par with Shenfei and is equally famous, was built with the assistance of Shenfei.

So there is no outstanding contribution from Shen Fei.

There would be no Republic Air Force today.

Although Chengfei has emerged as a dark horse in recent years and has successively developed two domestically-produced fighter jets with full intellectual property rights - the J-10 series and the J-20 series, Shenfei has lost twice in the competition with Chengfei.

As a result, Shen Fei received a lot of criticism online.

Some people even joked that Shen Fei can only imitate but not surpass others.

We will not stop until we have completely wiped out the Su-27 Flanker.

But apart from criticizing, the trolls will never recall the outstanding contributions Shen Fei once made, let alone the brilliant achievements Shen Fei has made now.

They only compare Cheng Fei and Shen Fei and then attack each other.

They even turned Shen Fei and Cheng Fei into idols and fan clubs.

In fact, these people simply have holes in their brains, and it’s because they eat too much.

Both Shenfei and Chengdu Aircraft Corporation are indispensable R&D and manufacturing centers of the Republic's Air Force.

Indispensable.

Therefore, whether it is praising Cheng Fei and belittling Shen Fei, or praising Shen Fei and belittling Cheng Fei, it is not advisable.

And it’s either stupid or evil!
