Episode 28 recap: Wu Qiang's old injury relapsed due to strength training.
In the upcoming training, the commander told the female soldiers who had signed up to board the ship that from now on, they would train with the male soldiers in the basic training before boarding the ship. Yi Zhengbang specially reminded the members of the test flight squadron that if anyone could not board the aircraft carrier, they could choose to leave, and he would approve it immediately without any retention.
Soon it was time for the next stage of B1 curriculum training, which would be more dangerous than before - they would have to find the aircraft carrier at sea. During the test flight, the huge impact force caused Wu Qiang's old injury to relapse, but he was unwilling to give up and wanted to try again. Qin Dadi noticed that Wu Qiang had lost altitude and kept urging him to parachute immediately. When Ling Kai heard the news, he was emotional and felt wronged for his brothers, insisting on asking the commander for an explanation.
Afterwards, all the members of the logistics support team came to report their thoughts to Yi Zhengbang. Ling Kai chokingly asked why they were not allowed to board the aircraft carrier. Yi Zhengbang proactively shared his own story, telling everyone that personal honor and disgrace are insignificant compared to the country's interests, and that in the future China will have more aircraft carrier fleets. As the aircraft carrier's landing and take-off guides, they shoulder the mission of building the aircraft carrier force, and they must contribute their strength to the victory of the entire Chinese nation.
A heavy rain poured down, but Yi Zhengbang did not let the guards hold an umbrella, continuing to speak to the team members in the rain. He stated that if anyone wanted to leave because they could not board the aircraft carrier, he would approve it immediately without any obstruction. Not a single member of the team applied to leave, standing in front of Yi Zhengbang with a neat military posture, deeply aware of what collective honor means.
Afterwards, Ling Kai gathered the team members and announced that even if they could not board the aircraft carrier, they would perfect the deck signal command system so that the comrades who came here to learn could replace them and go aboard the aircraft carrier. Although it was the first time for female soldiers to board the ship, Yi Zhengbang still supported the female soldiers to enter various departments. Liu Xiaoli and An Ning from the female soldiers applied to the deck service squad, and the commander felt that if foreign female soldiers could become captains, then Chinese female soldiers could also make history.
At this moment in the female soldiers' dormitory, Xia Chu gave everyone a preventive shot, saying there was a possibility of sacrifices in the future, but compared to the test pilots, their injuries would be negligible. Soon, the female soldiers were arranged in various departments, with Liu Nina joining the medical support team's psychological support group as an assistant, and Xia Chu becoming the captain of the deck service squad.
The commander announced that from today on, the female soldiers would undergo basic training before boarding the ship together with the male soldiers, and only after passing the assessment would they become honorable Chinese aircraft carrier personnel. After enduring the arduous training period, the female soldiers finally boarded the aircraft carrier, filled with excitement.
The current aircraft carrier reconditioning and sea trials are about to end, and it will soon be delivered to the navy. Every day from now on will be a festival for the shipyard and the navy. It is suggested to establish a "Female Soldiers Embarking on Ships" festival to celebrate this wonderful occasion.
Meanwhile, the entire test flight squadron has transitioned to D03 training, laying a solid foundation for the upcoming full-crew ship landing trials. Qin Da Di announced that the squadron will soon be shifting to actual maritime operations. The pilots take the carrier-borne aircraft and fly towards the open sea, passing over the aircraft carrier. The female soldiers hear the sound and rush to the deck, waving excitedly. Xia Chu gazes intently at the agile carrier-borne aircraft in the sky.
In the squadron meeting, Kang Yan Cheng and others believe that finding the ship will become a new challenge they must overcome. Xie Zhen Yu seizes the opportunity to suggest reinstating the two-aircraft configuration, which will allow better coordination during landings, test flights, and ship searches. Qin Da Di agrees, as it will better facilitate the execution of D-class test flight missions in the future. He asks them to pair up on their own after the meeting, and if they can't, he will reassign them.
After the meeting, Qin Da Di returns to his office to find Wu Qiang standing outside, hesitant to speak. Just as Qin Da Di is about to ask, Tao Si Yong enters, and Wu Qiang leaves with an excuse. Tao Si Yong suspects that the frequent high-intensity training has caused Wu Qiang's old back injury to recur. Qin Da Di is struck with realization and is filled with self-blame.
Tao Si Yong takes Wu Qiang to the Navy General Hospital for examination. The doctor, after reviewing the report, marvels at having witnessed a pilot with such severe injuries able to return to the skies, testament to Wu Qiang's unwavering passion for flying. However, the doctor warns Tao Si Yong to pay attention to Wu Qiang's spine, as half of the screws have broken due to repeated impacts from flying, and continued flying could put his life at risk.
Kang Yan Cheng sighs as Liu Ni Na embarks on the ship, while Xie Zhen Yu feels Kang Yan Cheng should support her patriotic spirit and ability to deeply bury her ideals and love. However, Xie Zhen Yu cannot convince himself, and Kang Yan Cheng plans to help matchmake Xie Zhen Yu and Xia Chu.
Tao Si Yong then relays the doctor's advice to Qin Da Di, recommending that Wu Qiang be grounded immediately. Qin Da Di struggles with the decision, recalling his own severe injuries from test flights. At this moment, Wu Qiang approaches Qin Da Di, requesting to speak with him.
