Based on Ling Jia's contribution, Princess Jinli specially awarded her a Friendship Service Medal. She was awarded the medal in person. At the same time, she was appointed Minister of Military Health and awarded the rank of Major.
After Ling Jia received this honor, she immediately went to Wangdong City to take a photo album of military uniforms and send it back to China. It seemed that this alone was enough for her to show off for a while.
However, one thing about Ling Jia is that she never forgets her old friends. She took the opportunity of having dinner with Princess Jin Li to say a few words for Feng Nan, so she said to Jin Li: "I found out that we
Fortner is rich in majors, but it is difficult for majors to be promoted to lieutenant colonels."
Ling Jia's purpose in saying this was nothing more than to hint to Jin Li that Feng Nan's major should also be mentioned. But Jin Li acted as if she hadn't heard and opened her mouth to change the subject. Ling Jia initially thought that she didn't understand.
He said it three or two times in a row, but Jin Li changed the subject this time, and Ling Jia understood what was going on, no matter how slow her reaction was.
After returning from Jin Li's place, Ling Jia went to Feng Nan specifically and said to him: "It's not me who instigated it. It seems that we can't stay here for long. No matter how small this country is, the nobles are the nobles and the queen is the queen. With us
Ordinary people do not respect boundaries."
Feng Nan smiled and said: "What are you doing? I just made you a major."
Ling Jia said: "Why are you always messing around? It's none of your business. Have you ever heard of the story about the long hair coming back? There is no fish to eat."
Feng Nan sighed: "Secret Service Bureau Sun also vaguely mentioned to me last time that after a while, when everyone has settled in and the new fleet is almost built, that is, when no one needs me, I will
It's time to go back to China. Speaking of which, I also miss my teahouse. I haven't put any effort into it since it opened."
Ling Jia nodded and said, "Well, when you leave, you can't leave quietly. Tell me and I will go with you."
Feng Nan smiled and said: "You are so prosperous, you can go wherever you want."
Ling Jia said disdainfully: "What's the matter? After all, we are outsiders. Waiting for your princess to buy everything and there are people around, we people will be squeezed out sooner or later. Instead of waiting for others
We have issued an order to expel guests, so why not take the initiative and return home victorious after a hundred battles?"
Feng Nan said: "Yes, it is right to retire after success. I will grasp the scale."
When Ling Jia saw what Feng Nan said, she thought her words had an effect. She was very happy and left happily.
As soon as Ling Jia left, Feng Nan temporarily put her words behind him and devoted more and more energy to the construction of new combat boats and his 'mysterious project' on the terminal model.
Two weeks later, the speedboats with both sets of weapon plans were installed. Feng Nan gathered the technical personnel from Alligator Company and Desert Rose Company together, tested the weapon systems of the two speedboats separately, and came to the conclusion
Yes: the first system is easy to operate and has a wide field of vision; the second system has high technological content and accurate shooting. However, both systems still have some minor problems. After Feng Nan put forward his opinions, both companies quickly responded to the problems.
improve.
In addition to these two speedboats, Feng Nan ordered two more target boats, which were built according to the armored type of the PT boats. Except that the engines and weapons were all metal models, the rest of the data, especially the protection system, were the same as the prototype boats.
As before, Feng Nan also made several dummies and put them into the speedboat, some sitting and some standing. He planned to use these two speedboats to test the speedboat's impact resistance.
When everything was ready, Feng Nan wrote to Jin Li and asked her to come and inspect. Princess Jin Li happily accepted.
The inspection and testing site was conducted at Feng Nan's mangrove base, and a temporary viewing platform was set up on the tidal flat where the fierce battle was fought.
The scene of this inspection and exercise was very grand. Members of the newly established National Defense Forces Staff Headquarters and the Military Joint Conference were present, as well as some businessmen, weapons salesmen and reporters who had received information from other channels, but they were not invited.
and interview permission, so they were all blocked outside the cordon. However, these guys were well prepared and took out their telescopes to look far away, hoping to see more things and get some business opportunities.
In order to achieve the highest level of this exercise, Feng Nan personally led several naval engineers with driving experience and several sailors selected from the inland river patrol boat unit to conduct it.
Before the formal drill, Feng Nan asked the engineers and sailors to line up in front of the viewing platform and salute the inspectors. Then Feng Nan ran out of the line and came to the viewing platform and loudly reported: "Your Highness, Fortner's new combat speedboat has been prepared and will be ready at any time."
Drills can be conducted, please give instructions."
Princess Jinli is wearing a newly designed white colonel military uniform today, with a Makarov leather gun holster hanging on her waist. I don’t know if there is an authentic one inside, but when paired with this, she looks very heroic. She has always been
When Feng Nan started to get ready and line up, she left her seat and stood at the front of the auditorium, holding the railing with her left hand and a gold-plated small telescope in her right hand. She looked at Feng Nan affectionately, seemingly with every movement,
Not wanting to miss a single glance.
Jin Li stood, and the others did not dare to sit. They stood one step behind her in order according to each other's status.
Feng Nan saluted and reported, and Jin Li also returned the salute, but for some reason, her hands were shaking slightly. She looked at Feng Nan, but forgot to answer, causing Feng Nan to report again, before she stabilized her mind and said: "
Please start practicing."
"Yes!" Feng Nan turned around and ran back to the front of the queue, and ordered to his subordinates: "Get on the boat! Practice as planned!"
"Yes!" The fourteen subordinates were led away by their respective squad leaders, with loud slogans and quick movements. Feng Nan turned back on the spot and saluted again to the viewing platform. Jin Li was a little crazy,
After returning the favor slowly, Feng Nan turned around and boarded the boat.
In fact, not only Jin Li, but also Yi Ge was watching with some fascination. Major Genali, who was beside her, quietly grabbed her hand and said, "He is indeed great. He was here back then, and a team of dozens of people beat me."
Hundreds of people can't hold their heads up. If you choose him, I really have nothing to say."
Yige was still looking forward, looking very calm, but his subordinates secretly used force and pinched Major Genari twice, not sure whether to warn him not to talk nonsense or to reassure him.
On the other side of the viewing platform, an elder saw that Feng Nan's team was well-trained and couldn't help but sigh: "It was Salim Binka who led the soldiers."
Major Arnovi, who was sitting next to him, said with a bit of disdain: "Yeah, it's up to you to say that." Then he added: "Those who got on the boat on the left, those are my soldiers." His tone was rather serious.
To show off.
But the one who looked at the most strange thing was Ling Jia. Just as Jin Li didn't want to leave Feng Nan's eyes, her eyes never left Jin Li for a moment. When Jin Li looked at Feng Nan in a daze, she pursed her lips.
, turned her face and said quietly to Liu Shijia: "Jiajia, you see, there is no reward for merit, and now she is pretending to be infatuated to satisfy people. It doesn't cost money to look infatuated. This woman is really not simple."
Liu Shijia nudged her with her elbow and moved her mouth to the side, meaning: Stop talking nonsense, there are all black guys around.
Ling Jia understood what she meant and knew that she was reasonable, but she still said unconvinced: "Originally..."
The warship started. It just cruised slowly for a few laps at first, then accelerated, and finally reached the top speed. The high-speed speedboat drew white waves on the water. The excellent design during World War II added
The exquisite modern craftsmanship allowed these two boats to move through the trees in the swamp as flexibly and gracefully as swamp elves, which attracted bursts of applause from the viewing platform.
Princess Jinli looked at the combat boat cruising easily among the trees, and waved to Lieutenant Colonel Buman behind her. Lieutenant Colonel Buman walked out of the queue, stood half a step behind Jinli, bowed slightly and said, "Your Highness?"
"
Jin Li asked softly: "Lieutenant Colonel, you are an expert in boat warfare and a senior officer. What do you think of these two speedboats? Can they compete with the rebels?"
Lieutenant Colonel Buman said: "Your Highness, these two speedboats are great, very maneuverable, in terms of firepower... they can also compete with the rebels' expulsive 50-ton speedboats, but if they encounter armored vehicles equipped with 37 guns,
Battleship...this...this is the name given to that kind of boat by the Tabo rebels -
-If you encounter the 70-ton 37 gunboat, it will still be inferior in terms of firepower. However, Major Nan still has a 50-ton speedboat that has not yet been built. I think since Major Nan’s 35-ton gunboat can compare with the tower
Fight the rebels' 50-ton boat, then Major Nan's 50-ton boat..."
Seeing that Lieutenant Colonel Buman was becoming more and more unreliable, Jin Li thought to herself that it was no wonder that he didn't dare to fight against the rebels when he had a large number of soldiers. His ability was really not that good, so she waved her hand, and Lieutenant Colonel Buman resigned knowingly.
After the first round of demonstrations, Feng Nan drove the speedboat to the other side of the mangrove and parked it. He also used two patrol boats to tow the target boat to the front of the viewing platform and parked it. Then he landed on the shore and walked towards the viewing platform.
At the same time, two teams of engineers carried bulletproof glass frames and bulletproof shields and installed them on the viewing platform. So everyone guessed that the next one would be a live-fire drill.
Sure enough, Feng Nan came over and reported: "The next exercise project is the anti-strike capability of the new combat speedboat. For this purpose, we have prepared two target ships. The relevant manufacturing data are basically the same as the combat prototype boats. Now please visit Her Royal Highness the Princess and other officials.
Inspection target ship."
Jin Li nodded, and instead of taking the wooden ladder on the side of the auditorium, she jumped directly from the front of the auditorium. Seeing this, Feng Nan quickly stepped forward and stretched out his hands. He just happened to catch Jin Li head-on, holding her with both hands.
Under his armpit, he almost hugged her down.
After Jin Li landed on her feet, she whispered to Feng Nan: "Thank you."
Feng Nan smiled, took a step to the side, bowed slightly, and made a "please" gesture. Jin Li then stepped forward, and Feng Nan followed her half a step away. When she walked across the tidal flat,
, the ground was a little muddy, and Jin Li’s white trousers were stained with a little mud, but
Jin Li didn't care, walked briskly, and asked Feng Nan a few words from time to time. When she stepped onto the target ship's gangplank, she even offered her hand to Feng Nan to support her. Because the gangplank was narrow, Feng Nan was on the dirt floor under the gangplank.
While walking, the two kept their hands together until Jin Li was sent to the target boat.
In fact, Jin Li walks on the springboard very steadily and does not need help at all.
Everyone else jumped down from the front of the stage when they saw Jin Li, and no one took the wooden ladder, so they all jumped from the front. The lady-like figure almost sprained her foot.
The visit to the target ship is actually mainly to let everyone see whether the armor protection installation of the target ship is the same as that of the combat prototype, so as to test the actual protective power of the warship. On the target ship, Feng Nan personally asked Jin Li one by one
After the introduction, Jin Li occasionally showed a bit of girlish temperament and playfully poked a dummy in the face.
After the visit, Jin Li and others returned to the viewing platform, and the bulletproof glass on the viewing platform had been installed. Feng Nan led Jin Li up to the viewing platform from the wooden ladder on the side, and asked Jin Li to sit down.
Li said, "It's better to stand. You can see clearly while standing. Nan, how do you plan to test?"
Feng Nan said: "The first is a round of light weapons shooting, mainly using team weapons, to test the basic defense of the speedboats. Then it is switched to a mobile shooting test of two speedboats. In addition to testing the defense, it also tests the speedboats' attack power.
ability."
Jin Li smiled and nodded and said, "Very good, when can we start?"
Feng Nan bowed slightly and said, "I look forward to your order."
