Chapter 170 New Year's Eve
Auspicious snow indicates a good harvest, and spring breeze welcomes a new year.
The Spring Festival comes as soon as possible, and the first snow of the Spring Festival falls as soon as possible.
On New Year's Eve, it happened to be the beginning of spring in the twenty-four solar terms, and the snowflakes that the south envied, as if they were stunning.
The snow is not very heavy, but in the Northeast, it is considered light snow.
Zhang Qingyao went home yesterday, but Yang Luo did not accompany her back after all. It was not that he could not ask for leave, but that he was not ready to meet his parents.
In the morning, the whole group was cleaning up, and they did all of them.
In the afternoon, Yang Luo and other pilots gathered in the pilot's restaurant to make dumplings together.
According to the convention of the 122nd Regiment, the New Year’s Eve dinner is for the whole group to eat. The dumplings are made by the pilot and cooked in the pilot’s restaurant. Other dishes are in charge of the canteen.
The pilot restaurant is very lively. The tables used to eat have become a battlefield for making dumplings. The kneading of dough, the chopped fillings, and the packed fillings, and everyone divided the work and cooperated.
Yang Luo has a little bit of a numbness when it comes to making dumplings, but he doesn't know how to do it.
Yang Luo is from the south, and there is no such thing as dumplings at the New Year’s Eve dinner. There are basically big fish and meat on the dining table, and you can’t even see vegetarian dishes.
Ye Jianlong was stained with white flour in his hand, holding the dumpling skin, skillfully putting in the filling, and quickly pinched out a standard dumpling. Seeing Yang Luo who was stunned, he said, "Yang Luo, what are you doing? Do you want to eat, are you just thinking about eating?"
Yang Luo smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know."
"Come on, I'll teach you." Ye Jianlong laughed in silence, picked up a piece of dumpling skin again, and explained while operating: "There are many ways to make dumplings. Generally, they are made of traditional crescent dumplings. Take a piece of dumpling skin, put an appropriate amount of filling in the middle, dip water with the right index finger and apply it to the edge of the dumpling skin. Just a little bit, fold the dumpling skin in half, pinch it tightly in the middle, and fold a pleat on the right dumpling skin to the left..."
After seeing Ye Jianlong's operation, Yang Luo picked up a piece of dumpling skin and followed Ye Jianlong's steps step by step. He quickly made a dumpling, but this look was a bit terrible and could be said to be like a four-dimensional person.
After seeing this, Ye Jianlong laughed and said, "Yang Luo, what are you wrapping this? Are there dumplings like this?"
It attracted everyone else's attention. When they saw the four-dimensional characters in Yang Luo's hand, they laughed so hard that they leaned back and forth.
"Laugh, laugh, you guys to death." Yang Luo glared at everyone and said with a dark face.
He didn't believe it if he put down the four-dimensional image and picked up a piece of dumpling skin again. He even didn't believe it. A man who could even control a fighter would be stumped by a dumpling.
"Remember, when I was having dinner at night, everyone picked out these four dumplings and left them all for Yang Luo to eat." Ye Jianlong said loudly, but he kept making dumplings of different styles in his hand.
I tried to make more than a dozen consecutive times, but none of them were like dumplings, all of them were like four.
Yang Luo had to believe that he really didn't have the talent to make dumplings, so he had to put down his dumplings and turn to chop the stuffing amid the ridicule of everyone.
The 122nd Regiment and nearly a thousand people from Donglingchang Station were required to make nearly ten thousand dumplings. It started after lunch and was not until it got darker before all the dumplings were wrapped.
In the army, only three festivals are paid more attention to, two are birthdays, army birthdays, army birthdays, national day, and one is the Spring Festival, which symbolizes the League members.
The Spring Festival is a happy and peaceful festival and a day for family reunion. Children who are away from home will go home to celebrate the Spring Festival and have a reunion dinner with their families no matter how far they are.
Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety have been difficult to achieve both loyalty and filial piety.
In fact, "filial piety" to parents is not contradictory to their motherland, and this "loyalty" is a greater degree of "filial piety".
But in our traditional concept, being by our parents is considered filial piety.
During the holidays, I miss my family more. In order to reduce the homesickness of the officers and soldiers and create a lively reunion atmosphere.
Therefore, there was no special reunion dinner on New Year's Eve, pilots and non-pilots. Everyone gathered together and had a big meal in the cafeteria. The group made an exception and each person gave a beer, including the pilot.
Of course, except for pilots who need combat readiness.
It is not common for the whole group to make exceptions to allow drinking, and this is only once this time in the Spring Festival a year.
Whether Yang Luo drinks or not, he doesn't care whether he drinks wine or not, but he can't resist the warm atmosphere, so he drinks it all together.
The cafeteria was filled with laughter and joy, and the wine was so lively that there were a few cheers of roars from time to time.
Hu Zhongming, Wen Xianjun and other leaders toasted each other, thanking everyone for their hard work over the past year, and also encouraging everyone to continue their efforts and reach a peak next year.
After the reunion dinner, everyone went to the activity center to entertain, play cards, karaokes, and watch the Spring Festival Gala...
Today, there is no distinction between officers and soldiers, and no distinction between arms, and everyone is equal.
Donglingchang Station will not blow out the lights tonight, and you can have fun all night long.
Before we knew it, a year has passed quietly.
Yang Luo is one year older.
...
At 8 o'clock the next morning, Yang Luo and Ye Jianlong walked into the combat readiness duty room in the snow, replacing the two pilots who had already been on a night shift.
On the first day of the New Year, it was still snowing, with the cold wind blowing, wrapped in crystal clear snowflakes flying all over the sky.
On the straight runway in the flight area, staff drove special snow removal vehicles back and forth to clean up the snow and sprinkle industrial salt to ensure that the runway can take off and land fighter jets normally at any time.
At present, although the first brigade's J-10c modification training has been completed, it has not yet truly formed its combat effectiveness. Only half of the people are qualified for combat readiness and duty, and the other six people need to strengthen training.
The combat readiness duty is not training. There are 365 days a year. Whether it is windy or rainy, or holiday breaks, there are people on duty every moment.
And unless the weather is so bad that the fighter plane cannot be lifted, once there is a situation, no matter what the reason is, it must take off immediately.
During this day when the entire regiment was grounded, Yang Luo liked to be on duty, and maybe he had the chance to go up and wander around.
When Yang Luo and Ye Jianlong were handing over the two flights, Yang Luo's and Ye Jianlong's were also dragged out of the hangar and were dragged by the crew to the stoppage of the fighter on duty by the flight attendant.
The external power supply starts the engines of the two fighter jets and is idle. The refueling pipe continuously refuels the fighter jets, and the boarding ladder is placed on the fuselage.
As long as the order arrives, the refueling pipe and the boarding ladder are withdrawn, the pilot will be able to slide out and take off immediately.
Yang Luo and Ye Jianlong were talking nonsense. Other flight gears were already worn, and the flight helmet was kept at hand. Once you have time, pick up the helmet and you can rush out.
On the first day of the New Year, Yang Luo didn’t think there would be a free time, and basically just sat in the combat readiness duty room for a day.
