Invincible from the sword

Chapter 381 This is too bold

Doug and Grumman are also prominent figures in the Lighthouse Country.

millionaire.

They are very concerned about the whole world situation.

He also had frequent contacts with the upper floors of the Lighthouse Kingdom.

At present, the upper echelons of the entire lighthouse country basically divide their attitudes towards the island country into two factions.

One faction thinks that negotiations with the island countries should be started immediately, so as not to let the lighthouse countries get involved in the war of the whole world.

This force has been prevalent in the Lighthouse Country for decades.

called isolationism.

The other faction is the hawk faction represented by Wheelchair Luo.

Strongly demand participation in the world war.

Because only in this way can the lighthouse country obtain the greatest benefits.

As weapons manufacturers in the lighthouse country, the two of them are staunch supporters of the war.

Because their business is closely related to the world situation, the two pay special attention to the world situation.

After the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, they launched a massive attack on the entire Pacific Ocean.

Doug and Grumman Jr. know this very well.

So Zhang Lei said that there is a possibility of Japanese troops landing on the west coast of the Lighthouse Country, and they agreed.

That's why they agreed immediately after Doolittle told Zhang Lei's request.

On the one hand, it is because it does not want to give up such a large fighter jet order.

On the other hand, most of the factories of their two companies are located on the west coast of the lighthouse country.

If the Japanese army landed from the west coast, their company would go bankrupt immediately.

Compared with the huge order and their factory, Zhang Lei wants one-twentieth of the profit, which is completely acceptable for Doug and Jr. Grumman.

The contract was signed very well.

When Doug and Jr. Grumman came, they brought the contract.

Even with a lawyer.

Very rigorous.

Zhang Lei took a rough look at the contract and signed it.

Stilwell assured that there would be no problem.

Then Zhang Lei and Stilwell went straight to the R&D departments of these two companies.

In order to shorten the time, Stilwell brought together the designers from these two companies.

The chief designer of North Lighthouse Aviation was Edgar Schumerder.

The chief designer of Grumman is called Chance.

Both have high IQs.

He was already the backbone of the company at a young age.

The two of them were quite angry about calling them over.

Oh my God, it's been two months now.

We are so busy that we are about to drop a few.

Let's have an important meeting at this time! ?

What meeting is so important?
If this new type of fighter jet can't be designed, it's a fucking devil!

Chance was also cursing.

Says he doesn't have time for meetings at all.

Moreover, Edgar and Chance are opposites in a sense.

Because their main opponent in designing aircraft is the Japanese Zero fighter.

Zhang Lei didn't have time to flirt with the two of them.

If this was on the battlefield, Zhang Lei would have shot directly.

However, after Zhang Lei kicked a table into pieces, the attitude of the two of them became much gentler immediately.

You are the boss.

You speak first.

Zhang Lei said to the two people: "I'll just say it once, how much you can remember depends on your heads."

The biggest reason for the superior performance of the Japanese Zero fighter is that it canceled the protection when it was designed.

Because the performance of the island country's aircraft engine is not satisfactory.

If thick protective panels are installed like the aircraft in the lighthouse country, the Zero fighter will only be beaten.

Moreover, the island country has always paid little attention to protection when designing aircraft.

Bushido.

To protect it is Bushido?
So one of the most powerful aircraft designers in the history of the island nation, Jiro Koshi appeared.

This Kokoshi Jiro is not very old, only in his 20s.

After graduating from Waseda University in the island country, he entered the Mitsubishi Corporation in the island country.

Became a young aircraft designer.

This bastard is a militant.

My biggest dream is to design an invincible fighter jet.

For this, he even went mad.

Although the performance of the island country's previous aircraft was still passable, they were on the eastern battlefield.

When facing the lighthouse country, the base camp of the island country always felt that its plane was not good enough.

So an order was given to the weapon headquarters of the island country to develop a fighter with excellent performance in the shortest possible time.

The kind that crushes the lighthouse country.

In the end, this huge order fell to the island country Mitsubishi Heavy Industries.

Kokoshi Jiro started as a support staff.

But this guy is very ambitious, and his head turns quickly.

In just half a year, he designed the Zero fighter himself.

Let everyone in Mitsubishi be astonished.

It's unbelievable that a single person can design an airplane.

However, in the eyes of other Mitsubishi designers, Kokoshi Jiro's aircraft design is simply crazy.

There is no protection at all.

And in order to make up for the lack of aircraft engines, Kokoshi Jiro even replaced many steel parts on the aircraft with wooden ones.

It's too bold.

You can use wood for the wings and fuselage of the plane, but why are the parts replaced with wood?

How long will this last?
What surprised them the most was that in order to increase the range, Kokoshi Jiro dug a lot of holes in the wings of the plane in addition to the main mailbox on the plane.

There are a lot of secondary mailboxes in it.

The plumbing is all over the place.

The other old devil designers I saw were all dumbfounded.

This is actually an airplane!
Although such a design was despised by many ghost designers, it was appreciated by the senior management of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries.

The executives of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries were surprised to find that the aircraft designed by Kokoshi Jiro could not only meet the requirements of the Japan Weapons Headquarters, but also save one-third of the cost.

This is a great thing.

As for the fact that the plane is not protective and unfriendly to the pilots, this has something to do with them!

I'm not flying the plane anyway.

So this aircraft was quickly put into production.

speedy.

It is the flagship product of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries.

When Zhang Lei finished talking about the performance, parameters and design ideas of the Zero fighter, both Edgar and Chance were overheard.

Eyes wide open.

Ten thousand alpacas roared past in my heart.

What the hell!

This is the Zero fighter that the Japanese army dominated the Pacific battlefield!
No protection!

Such news directly shocked the two aircraft designers.

This design idea is a fortress.

With these materials, Edgar and Chance immediately began to engage in intense design.

And soon, news came from Nestor.

It is said that they, the Lighthouse Country, have agreed to ship a bullet production line to the Shanxi Eighth Route Army.

And responsible for providing technical support.

Nestor is really in a hurry now.

He desperately needs to fight back now.

Zhang Lei and Stilwell immediately arrived in Hawaii again.

Start preparing a battle plan.

Just when Zhang Lei and Stilwell arrived in Hawaii again, Doolittle and the others came back.

The bombing mission was executed perfectly.

Sixteen B25 bombers bombed the mainland of the island country.

Although the effect of the bombing is very average, the damage caused to the island country is also very small.

But this greatly boosted the morale of the soldiers in the lighthouse country.

Now the lighthouse country's radio has been broadcasting this news in a loop.

The entire Beacon Country has a feeling of elation.

The bomber driven by Doolittle directly led the plane all the way to Wuhan after the bombing was over.

However, because they got lost, most of the bombers did not reach Wuhan.

Instead, it landed in the Japanese war zone.

Several pilots were captured by the Japanese army.

But most of the pilots have successfully reached Wuhan.

From there, I flew back to Hawaii.

Doolittle looked excited.

His bomber threw more than a dozen heavy incendiary bombs at the Japanese arsenal.

That feeling is so cool.

This time Doolittle's bombing has confused the island nation's base camp.

Especially the dog locust in the island country, who spurted out a mouthful of dog blood in anger.

It was sunny.

Your majesty the dog of the island nation.

Because his daughter-in-law is too ugly.

It made his daughter-in-law and eldest brother unhappy.

Just when I was depressed, I heard a buzzing above my head.

Then there was the sound of a bomb exploding.

The island nation's base camp soon received a report of the explosion.

Tojo's frightened dog's face turned pale.

The whole person trembled with fright.

At first, he thought he had heard wrong.

This is so impossible! ! !
Tojo roared, his voice was hoarse.

But he was just shouting.

He knew it was true.

There was even a plane that flew past his plane.

At that time, Tojo had just returned from inspecting Hokkaido.

His plane was preparing to land at Amada Airport in Tokyo.

Then he saw a bomber fly over his head.

very close.

Tojo could even see the striking logo on the bomber.

It was the plane of Lighthouse State.

A white five-pointed star is drawn inside a circle.

At that time, Tojo rubbed his eyes and thought he was wrong.

But soon, Hideki Tojo reacted.

He was on the plane at the time, and as long as the opponent hit him with a shuttle of bullets, Tojo would die.

So after his plane landed, Tojo immediately held a cabinet meeting.

The bombing is over.

Although the loss was not large, the psychological shock to Tojo was very great.

What the hell did that bastard Yamamoto 56 do?

His joint fleet controls most of the Pacific Ocean.

It actually allowed the planes from the lighthouse country to come in.

He should have had seppuku! ! !
Naotomi Hattori was very embarrassed.

His face turned red.

This time, it is entirely the responsibility of their island navy.

Tojo was very annoyed: "Old Fu, what the hell did you do?

Is this how your combined fleet controls the Pacific Ocean?

My dog ​​almost lost his head! "
