Changkong Fighter

Chapter 316 Ace Pilot Chang Kong

Amidst the booming cannon fire, the triumphant roar of the cannons echoed throughout the square. Everyone present felt a surge of excitement, as if something within their very being had awakened.

After the cannon salute ended, the national flag was slowly raised up the flagpole to the strains of the national anthem.

Next, the commander-in-chief delivered a speech and inspected the troops, and then the highly anticipated military parade began.

"It's coming soon! It's coming soon!"

Liu's mother picked up the binoculars and looked at the sky, searching for any suspicious little black dots, while Liu's father was much calmer, though he couldn't help but smile, and even took a few selfies with his phone.

Whether by coincidence or accident, the camera inadvertently captured the leader on stage in the shot. Liu Ma, who was standing next to him, rolled her eyes. This man just can't change this trait, no matter how old he is.

Just as we were getting to this point, we noticed that Liu's father seemed to be sending something.

"Old Liu, what are you doing?"

"It's nothing. I've been wanting to get a badge for a while now, and a friend of mine said she has one."

"Oh, oh." Hearing what Lao Liu said, Liu's mother didn't think much of it, only He Xiaoxi, who was standing to the side, glanced at Liu's father.

Unlike previous marching formations, equipment formations, and aerial formations, this time the aerial formation came first.

This parade is somewhat different from previous ones; the naval air force contingent, which is on the front lines, will be the first to be reviewed.

[Starting from the end of 2024, naval aviation...]

The on-site broadcast was recounting the naval aviation's history, stating that they have been fighting on the front lines since the sinkhole appeared in 2024.

Look! They're here!

As the broadcast began, a small black dot was rapidly approaching in the sky. Everyone looked up at the distant sky. Some with good eyesight vaguely saw something, while those with poor eyesight were still waiting for the main character to appear.

Suddenly, a low-visibility fighter jet appeared in the view of the large screen erected in the square, and the number [189] on its tail was very eye-catching.

After the drone adjusted its optical sensor to zoom in, everyone was finally able to see a close-up of the lead aircraft.

The canopy appears to be made of a dark green material, obscuring the pilot's view inside the cockpit. Whether intentional or accidental, the densely packed number of crashes below the cockpit when the camera zooms in is dizzying.

The tiny Type 1, Type 2, and Type 3 patterns are quite eye-catching, and there are also patterns of fighter jets from other countries on them.

Now, flying towards us is the pilot—Chang Kong!

[Starting in 2024, Comrade Chang Kong fought on the front lines in the Western Pacific. As the first pilot to shoot down an alien civilization, he was awarded the combat title of Deep Blue Eagle.]

The broadcast described Liu Jun's combat record, and the audience listened attentively, feeling as if they were watching "Superman of Southeast University," especially since he had been awarded first-class merit and special-class merit.

To date, Comrade Changkong has shot down a total of 192 alien spacecraft! He has set an example.

[Comrade Chang Kong is also the pilot who has shot down the most alien civilizations in human history.]

This broadcast directly and thoroughly presented Liu Jun to the people, recounting his meritorious service in the skies to everyone present. "Old Liu, this isn't right. Didn't our son say he was training pilots in the rear? How come he's gone to the front lines?"

Hearing this, Liu Ma on the viewing platform felt a pang of anxiety. Although she didn't know much about what was happening on the front lines, she wasn't stupid. The front lines were very dangerous, and one could easily be killed.

As a mother, all she wants is for her son to be healthy and happy. Meanwhile, Mr. Liu, standing to the side, wore a proud expression.

A man's job is to achieve great things and make a name for himself.

"Don't worry, Auntie, I'll watch over him for you," He Xiaoxi said softly, taking the opportunity to pull Liu Ma's hand.

"I feel at ease with you around."

In Liu Ma's eyes, she had become her daughter-in-law at this moment, and she was so considerate.

In the sky, Liu Jun was unaware that he had gained a "wife" and was focused on the navigation data on the instrument panel.

Now he is the lead aircraft of the entire flight formation and cannot afford to make mistakes. His operation is like that of the most precise machine, flying strictly according to the route. All the air echelons must take him as the reference and maintain their formation.

After confirming that there was no mistake, Liu Jun was slightly distracted and turned his head to look at the departing viewing platform. He quickly scanned it and vaguely recognized an elderly couple and a little girl next to them.

Sometimes, it's just that strange; you can recognize your parents instantly with just a glance.

After confirming that the two elders were watching him, Liu Jun regained his composure and continued to lead the naval formation forward.

Behind Liu Jun were several J-15T and J-15S aircraft, each piloted by pilots with a number of kills. The entire formation consisted of over 30 ACE pilots, all of whom had achieved combat results in actual combat, causing a stir among the young people below.

This is an ace; what young person wouldn't want to be an ace?

After the naval formation flew over the square, several huge ginkgo leaf-shaped aircraft followed, each bearing a number of hits and kills.

After the sixth-generation fighter jets, there were the Air Force's J-20 formations, J-35s, followed by the J-16 and J-11B, and finally the large number of J-10Cs. However, when the J-10Cs entered the field, the people below were no longer paying much attention to the J-10Cs. They were all talking about the long sky and the cool ginkgo leaves. Even the J-20s were no longer appealing.

After the naval aircraft and air formations flew over the square, the naval fleet appeared on the big screen, the most eye-catching of which was the Liaoning.

As the first human aircraft carrier to make contact with extraterrestrial civilizations, it is also a decorated warship. Next to it are the Type 055 destroyer and others, which serve as its escorts.
Compared to these two dazzling stars, only the soon-to-be-commissioned Type 003 can rival them. The remaining Type 054 destroyers, like the J10C, have also become obsolete.

After the air force and navy were inspected, the army's equipment was reviewed, with various air defense equipment formations leading the way, showcasing a variety of new equipment.

After the air defense equipment formation passed through the square, the 99A, once a star of the army, was also overlooked.

After the last light tank drove across the square, the parade ended, and peace doves and balloons were released to express the University of Tokyo's hope for world peace.

Meanwhile, as everyone watched the peace doves and balloons, some people in the crowd who looked like reporters glanced at several foreigners, even though they, like reporters from other countries, were busy photographing the equipment array of the University of Tokyo.

However, as personnel of the National Security Bureau, these reporters, who appeared to be nothing out of the ordinary, had already come into their sights.

These reporters came specifically for Changkong, and at that moment, who was most interested in Changkong? Of course, it was the "descending faction"!
Otherwise, all this publicity for Changkong would be for nothing.
