Chapter 1773 Oh Sh*T, Lost Contact!
A full patrol approaches the limits of the aircrew and the helicopter’s capabilities; if an accident occurs during the patrol, the men aboard and the chopper itself would be buried in the depths of the snow mountains, not even their bones could be salvaged.
How would the Ground Aviation Soldiers know the goals of recent years had been suggested by the Ground Forces’ Special Forces? At this moment, they were curious about how this brother from the Ground Forces was knowledgeable about their Ground Aviation Regiment.
The snowstorm seemed to have gotten stronger, the helicopter that was passing through layers of snow clouds seemed like a leaf that had drifted into the ocean, and they would crash head-first into an unknown snow-capped mountain at any time.
The pilot stopped reminding everyone to fasten their seatbelts; his full attention was on piloting the aircraft and was concentrating at the white scenery with all he got; meanwhile, his co-pilot was using a 3D navigational chart to mark the way for his pilot, and flew over one dangerous obstacle after the other.
The only celebratory thing was no one started getting flight sickness from the shaking, Li Jinnian and the rest of the Navy were all used to the motion of waves on the sea. Meanwhile, the Special Forces Soldiers in Elite Platoon need not mention, all of them could pilot fighter jets, could complete several barrel rolls, and steadily pilot their jets afterward.
As for Ye Jian, though she hadn’t done a systematic anti-dizziness training as they had, but she had already been through tests before starting Li Jinnian’s training, such shaking wasn’t something uncomfortable for her.
The helicopter that was flying in the snowstorm had long lost contact with the surface navigation station; even the satellite system couldn’t lock on on its whereabouts, even so, no one from the Ground Aviation’s Surface Navigation Command Center was panicking from that.
“Continue searching for Black-20, Contact Black-24,25,29 to halt their take off until after the snowstorm, contact Purang Border Company’s Refuel Station, today’s landing time will be delayed.”
Ground Aviation’s Regimental Commander ordered methodically, after spending years in low-oxygen altitudes, the Regimental Commander with lips turned dark-purple stared at the radar system, however, the radio waves they had sent out searching still didn’t have Black-20 Helicopter’s radar ping, at the same time, they did not receive the radar ping from them.
A Ground Aviation Officer walked over hurriedly, and with a loud voice, he started ‘reporting.’
When the Regimental Commander turned around to face him, he immediately started reporting: “Regimental Commander, we have lost contact with the Art Troupe that was on their way to offer condolences to the officers of Shenxianwan Outpost! The original plan was for them to arrive at the Outpost at 1300, the Outpost soldiers that went to receive them did not see the Art Troupe!”
“Search for them, search for them! Bring me Fourth Platoon’s Commander!” Truly bad things come in sets; everything bad was happening at the same time! The Ground Aviation’s Regimental Commander locked his thick brows together, he turned around and spoke at an Army civilian: “Give me the maps!”
Everyone in the Surface Navigational Command Center wore tense expressions; even the atmosphere had turned extremely serious.
There were a total of twelve Art Soldiers in the Art Troupe; among them were ten cute female soldiers, and two others were male soldiers!
At the same time, there was a Leadership onboard and two elegantly mannered men with unknown identities, including the soldiers on escort, they had fully lost contact with the party of twenty people!
Spreading open the map, and glancing at the pencil the Army Civilian had passed him, the Regimental Commander pointed at the first landing spot of Black-24. Slowly drag it towards the route headed towards Shenxianwan Outpost, with brows locked together, he pursed his lips, after a while, he bellowed an order: “Immediately contact the aircrew of Black-24, request the Ground Forces for reinforcements!”
The Ground Forces that had arrived at the Plateau for training could hike over the valleys, enter the frozen river and follow after the Art Troupe’s trail, and they would arrive more timely than any soldiers sent from any outpost!
“Regimental Commander, Black-20 had sent news, they had already flown past Aroda Canyon.” A Ground Aviation Soldier who was staring at the radar system received a signal and immediately reported the latest news to his Regimental Commander.
