"Come back!"
In May 2016, not long after Zhang Chao's time, his wife Zhang Ya dreamed of her husband, in the dream, Zhang Ya cried and begged Zhang Chao to return to his side, but Zhang Chao directly refused his wife's request, he said: "I actually want to fly, I want to get on the ship so much, and in the end I still can't get up, it's a pity." ”
After Zhang Chao's death, his wife Zhang Ya chose to be a navy.
In 2016, "Moving China" upheld the hope that the people could remember those heroes in the era of peace, so Zhang Chao was selected as one of "Moving China".
How did Zhang Chao die? After Zhang Chao's sacrifice, why did his wife also choose to become a navy?
Dreams light the way
In 1986, Zhang Chao was born in a loving family, they lived in a small house in Yueyang, Hunan, although the family was ordinary, but his parents were very fond of Zhang Chao.
It turned out that before Zhang Chao was born, he had three older brothers and sisters, but they all failed to survive due to various reasons, so after Zhang Chao was born, his parents paid great attention to his growth.
Zhang Chao's parents are worried about every piece on his body that touches it, so it can be said that they have reached the level of doting on Zhang Chao, but Zhang Chao has not been affected.
Generally speaking, doting parents will spoil their children as "bear children", but Zhang Chao is very sensible.
Zhang Chao has had the dream of being a soldier since he was a child, and he was rejected by his parents because he wanted to be a soldier, because he was reluctant to give up his baby son, suffered in the army, and was afraid of any mistakes.
But when Zhang Chao grew up, he still insisted on his dream, hoping that one day he could become an air force, fly an airplane, and become a qualified pilot.
At Zhang Chao's insistence, the second elder was unwilling to ruin the child's dream, so he agreed to Zhang Chao's idea of becoming an air force.
In 2004, Zhang Chao was admitted to Changchun Aeronautical University.
During his school days, Zhang Chao met the love of his life Zhang Ya in club activities, Zhang Ya is a freshman majoring in flight attendants, and her appearance is very beautiful, Zhang Chao was attracted by this beautiful girl at a glance. A fierce pursuit was launched.
With Zhang Chao's efforts, Zhang Ya finally agreed to fall in love with him, but he didn't expect that this time of love was like Qian Zhongshu's famous saying "There is no life and separation, only death".
Zhang Chao's grades have always been among the best in college.
Zhang Chao is not only friendly to his classmates, but also willing to tutor his classmates in his spare time.
The school also saw Zhang Chao's talent, so when Zhang Chao was about to graduate, I hope he can stay in school to teach, and there is no need to worry about salary, and more importantly, there are many benefits and holidays.
His family and girlfriend were very supportive of Zhang Chao's stay in school, but Zhang Chao's decision was unexpected.
Zhang Chao chose to sign up for the army, enlist in the army, and become an air force.
Not only that, Zhang Chao also signed up for service in the combat army, which is the danger of "licking blood on the sword", but Zhang Chao resolutely signed up despite dissuasion.
His girlfriend Zhang Ya once asked Zhang Chao why he must do the most dangerous thing despite persuasion, but Zhang Chao said: "If I don't do it, who will do it?" Everyone is afraid, I am not afraid!"
Zhang Chao's fearless spirit also infected his girlfriend at the same time, and the two got married naturally.
His wife, Zhang Ya, joined an airline as a flight attendant at the beginning of graduation.
However, after Zhang Chao chose to enlist in the army, Zhang Ya wanted to resign, return to his family, and assist Zhang Chao wholeheartedly.
This is not because Zhang Ya wants to rely on men, but Zhang Ya knows that what Zhang Chao has done is a great thing, and it is more necessary to have someone to assist him in the back, so that Zhang Chao has no worries.
Zhang Chao also lived up to expectations, repeatedly achieved good results in the army, and was an excellent air force among the best in the army.
What was Zhang Chao's career like later, and what happened to his family?
Pilot Zhang Chao
In 2014, Zhang Chao ushered in his first confrontation with foreign troops.
The reason is that this foreign military plane wanted to come to the mainland to inquire about intelligence, but Zhang Chao immediately made a decision to drive away the foreign military plane through a combination of soft and hard methods.
didn't want to take it, the plane still refused to leave, which made Zhang Chao very embarrassed, because the verbal warning had already been used, and the opposite plane was still unmoved, and other actions without authorization would be punished, but he was unwilling to be investigated by foreign troops.
Zhang Chao thought of a good way, he kept warning the opposite pilot through the microphone, and kept driving towards the opposite plane, the pilot of the foreign army was frightened by Zhang Chao's calm attitude, thinking that he would really make some moves.
When the foreign military plane saw that the request was wrong, they hurriedly left China.
Zhang Chao's boldness and carefulness made the leaders above appreciate it very much, and even Zhang Chao's own squad leader would often mention Zhang Chao to others to show off.
With his excellent performance, Zhang Chao was about to be promoted to captain, and for a while, everyone at home and outside was beaming.
However, Zhang Chao once again did something that was very surprising.
It turned out that the mainland formed the first carrier-based air force, which belonged to the category of combining the navy and the air force, which also made Zhang Chao very excited; although he is not an air force, but such a matter of pride and construction of the motherland must be indispensable to Zhang Chao.
Although Zhang Chao is an air force, he is not afraid to re-study, and he signed up for the carrier-based air force unit first.
Not only that, Zhang Chao was also afraid that he would not be selected, so he reported to the captain five times in a row, hoping that he could pass the selection.
In March 2015, Zhang Chao successfully entered the carrier-based aircraft unit with excellent selection results.
However, the problem that followed was that Zhang Chao did not have the rich experience of other teammates, not only that, because he belonged to the carrier-based aircraft unit after changing his major, he had to learn more knowledge that he did not know before.
Other teammates, two years ago, began to go through the system of Pei Zhenyou, only Zhang Chao was halfway "monk" For this reason, Zhang Chao also began to learn knowledge without sleep and food.
Finally, in the sixth month after Zhang Chao entered the carrier-based aircraft unit, he caught up with the progress.
In April 2016, just one year and one month later, Zhang Chao had mastered carrier-based aircraft and became the best pilot in the army.
Only three days before the official boarding of the Liaoning ship, Zhang Chao and his team members were also in full swing to rehearse, Zhang Chao's team is the most dangerous and the best team in our domestic carrier-based aircraft team.
The team has a resounding name, called the Sharp Knife Brigade, in the Sharp Knife Brigade, all the members of the team are very good, and Zhang Chao is not far behind, he is a promising young man by default.
Zhang Chao is not only very successful in his career, but also has a very happy family.
After Zhang Chao's wife, Zhang Ya resigned, she concentrated on her family, and soon, Zhang Ya added a member to this small family and gave birth to a daughter successfully.
As her daughter grows up day by day, Zhang Chao is getting busier and busier, and her daughter often doesn't see her father, but when she sees Zhang Chao, she always has a natural sense of closeness.
When his daughter was less than two years old, Zhang Chao had already sacrificed, how tormenting this is for a family, what kind of accident happened to Zhang Chao, and what has become of the family after his sacrifice?
Misfortune is coming
"Telex failure! Telex failure!"
This mechanical female voice pierced the hearts of everyone in the base army.
On April 27, 2016, only three days before Zhang Chao boarded the Liaoning ship, on this day, Zhang Chao was still preparing for the official boarding, which was the last flight of Zhang Chao's countless trainings.
At this time, Zhang Chao and his three teammates were conducting lifting training, and Zhang Chao was driving the last carrier-based aircraft.
Approaching noon, Zhang Chao had already chatted with his comrades-in-arms and planned to eat something at noon.
In the last training session of the morning, Zhang Chao was the last to land.
Zhang Chao relied on his skillful operation and precise landing, which was an excellent level that was difficult for other pilots to achieve, which made his teammates very admired.
However, just as this was all over, the command heard the voice of a mechanical woman, the motor was malfunctioning, and then the carrier-based aircraft swooped down to the ground with lightning speed.
Such a motor out of control is not within Zhang Chao's ability, because it is like the steering wheel failure when driving in our daily life.
It stands to reason that in such a situation, Zhang Chao, as a pilot, can parachute to save his life and abandon the carrier-based aircraft, without being punished in any way, and he will not be blamed on his head for mistakes.
However, each carrier-based aircraft is made with a lot of effort by the engineering staff, and it is not unreasonable to say so, each one is extremely expensive and unique.
After weighing the pros and cons, Zhang Chao chose to save the carrier-based aircraft regardless of the danger to his life, and after the carrier-based aircraft fell, Zhang Chao's teammates hurriedly lifted him out of his seat.
On the way to the hospital, Zhang Chao said the last words of his life: "I can't fly anymore." ”
When he arrived at the hospital, he found that Zhang Chao's heart, lungs, liver and other organs had been seriously damaged, and after more than two hours of rescue in the hospital, Zhang Chao's life came to an end.
Zhang Chao's family, there is a baby in swaddling clothes, Zhang Chao's wife, is also very sad, such a painful experience is tantamount to breaking up a family, leaving only orphans and widows.
However, Zhang Chao's wife, Zhang Ya, is a very strong woman.
Zhang Ya not only taught her children well, but also inherited her husband's legacy and became a navy.
Now, Zhang Chao's daughter is in elementary school, Zhang Ya has never hidden her father's whereabouts, and her daughter knows all the stories of her father, and is proud of it, she said: "When I grow up, I want to be like my parents." ”
The seeds of hope have been planted, and now they only need to be irrigated with care, and they will take root and sprout.
Zhang Chao's comrades-in-arms did not forget him, when the comrades-in-arms landed on the ship, the comrades-in-arms also carried Zhang Chao's flashlights, they carried Zhang Chao's hopes and dreams, and their hearts were full of hope.
Zhang Chao's wife Zhang Ya once said that she would never take off this military uniform, which is not only the unanimity of her husband, but also the dedication of their husband and wife to the motherland.
In 2021, Zhang Ya once wrote an article to commemorate her husband, in which she soared to the thoughts of her husband and the mission to the motherland, saying: "The fighter plane roared into the sky, which is the continuation of your life"
Zhang Yahui will continue to move forward on the road of building the motherland with Zhang Chao's dream, let us remember the heroic deeds and work hard to build the motherland!
epilogue
Zhang Chao is an unsung hero in peacetime.
With the continuous development of China, a variety of military weapons will be developed, so heroes like Zhang Chao who are not afraid of life and death are very much needed to help the motherland make progress.
In fact, there are not a few people with noble sentiments like Zhang Chao, and Zhang Chao is just one of the many unsung heroes, and there are many people who need our respect, such as the anti-narcotics police.
The prosperity of the motherland is due to the great merits of such fearless people, and if all of us have such a spirit, then what difficulties will our motherland have that cannot be overcome?
