Chapter 373 Cooperation with China
Wu Xuance felt bitter after hearing Lu Chen's words. Asking him to find a pilot inside the Red Gate, isn't that making things difficult for him? Most of the gang members in the Red Gate were from the mud. Few of them even went to school, let alone a pilot.
But what Lu Chen said made sense. If they hired pilots to carry out the airdrop, there was no guarantee that the pilots would just flee with the planes, or just find a random place to drop the supplies. If that was the case, then the Red Gate would really lose both the wife and the army.
Wu Xuance thought for a moment and said, "Okay then. I'll try my best to get someone to look for him. I'll let you know as soon as I find the pilot."
Lu Chen said, "You don't need to find too many pilots this time, just four or five will do. We're just airdropping some supplies, which shouldn't be too heavy. I believe that you Red Gate have millions of members around the world. You should be able to find four or five pilots."
Lu Chen's words made Wu Xuance feel a little ashamed. Although the Red Gate did have millions of members as Lu Chen said, it was not certain that they could find four or five pilots. Just like China, which now has 400 million people, but only has 500 to 600 pilots, and only 200 to 300 pilots can fly planes into the sky and fight with others.
According to this ratio, it would be a stroke of luck for Red Gate to find one or two pilots.
"Brother Lu Chen, you think too highly of us. With the quality of our Red Gate disciples, it's a blessing to find one or two pilots. If we want four or five, it would take the help of our great ancestor to have so many pilots."
Then Wu Xuance continued to say embarrassedly:
"Brother Lu Chen, I know you have opened a flight school in the Middle East, which has more than a hundred students. Otherwise, you can help us to hire the pilot."
Although Wu Xuance lowered his head when he said this, Lu Chen felt that Wu Xuance was very shameless. Damn, he wanted me to provide the plane again, and he also wanted to take advantage of my flight trainee. Lu Chen only had that classic sentence in his mind. "I have never seen such a shameless person."
His students have only been in school for a few months, and they probably haven't even passed the most basic flying knowledge and physical training. How did he come up with the idea of letting those people carry out this airdrop mission?
Lu Chen looked at Wu Xuance expressionlessly.
"Brother Wu, how about you send some people to the flight academy to learn for a few days, and then let them fly the plane to carry out this airdrop."
Wu Xuance lowered his head even lower after hearing what Lu Chen said. He knew that his request was too much, but it was really difficult for him to find a pilot. Besides, Nanyang probably couldn't hold out for much longer. They hadn't received any supplies, and the ammunition and food in stock were probably almost exhausted.
He gritted his teeth and said:
"Lu Chen, I really have no other choice. It's probably too late for me to find the pilot now. Since we have known each other for many years, please help us this time."
It was impossible for Lu Chen to send students there. Considering that the Red Gate was in real trouble, Lu Chen gave them an idea. He said:
"Those students in my flight academy have just enrolled, so I will definitely not let them go out to carry out this mission. But I know that your Red Gate has a good relationship with Chang Yunyun. You can borrow a few pilots from Chang Yunyun. He is now the president of China and has several flight squadrons under his command. I believe he can still provide a few pilots."
Lu Chen's words were like a revelation, making Wu Xuance's eyes light up. Yes, they can ask Chang Yunshu to borrow people. You know, Chang Yunshu has a very good relationship with them. When Chang Yunshu was an infantry cadet studying abroad, Hongmen sponsored him a lot. He also joined their Hongmen. It shouldn't be a problem for him to borrow a few people from him. After the problem was solved, Wu Xuance immediately smiled. He said to Lu Chen:
"Thank you for your reminder, Brother Lu Chen. I will send someone back to report to the elders, and then ask the elders to find Chang Yunyun to borrow someone."
With Lu Chen's reminder, the Red Gate people quickly returned to China, found Chang Yunyun, and borrowed six pilots from him. With the help of Lu Chen, the Red Gate leased six Douglas passenger planes. With these planes, the Red Gate delivered more than ten tons of supplies to the Red Gate people in Nanyang.
Through this incident, the people of Hongmen realized the importance of pilots and wanted to have their own pilots. Thinking of Lu Chen's flight academy, they thought of sending some people to Lu Chen's flight academy to learn flying.
Chang Yunyun knew that Lu Chen had a flight academy that was recruiting students, so he became interested in sending someone to Lu Chen to learn flying.
So in the second week after the airdrop, Wu Xuance came to Lu Chen's house with a young man in a suit.
When Lu Chen saw Wu Xuance coming again, he knew that the Red Gate's material delivery must have been successful. Otherwise, Wu Xuance would not have left so calmly.
Wu Xuance was very happy to see Lu Chen again. He said to Lu Chen:
"Brother Lu Chen, thanks to your help this time, otherwise our brothers in Nanyang would definitely not be able to hold on."
Lu Chen waved his hand and said:
"Brother Wu, you are too kind to me. This time I just rented a few planes for you. You prepared the pilots and supplies by yourselves. I didn't help at all."
Wu Xuance said quickly, "If it weren't for you, Brother Lu Chen, who came up with the idea of airdropping, we wouldn't have been able to deliver the supplies so smoothly. Brother Lu Chen, you played a role that no one can replace."
The two of them kept complimenting each other and refusing for a while. Lu Chen then noticed that Wu Xuance had brought someone he didn't know. Lu Chen pointed at the young man with some confusion and asked:
"I don't know who this brother is. Can Brother Wu introduce him to me?"
Hearing Lu Chen's question, Wu Xuance suddenly remembered that he was not alone today. He quickly pointed at the young man next to him and said:
"This is Zhou Zhiqian, one of the people who often transports people. He is here to inspect the U.S. aviation forces. This time, he followed me to talk to you, Lu Chen, to see if we can cooperate with you to train a group of pilots."
