Chapter 439 Strategic bombing is a dimensionality reduction strike (third update, please subscribe)
War never ends!

In human history, wars have never ended, and even the history of every country is itself a history of war.Any country that has survived to this day must defeat foreign enemies time and time again.

The only way to survive is to fight!
In Nanhua's military camp, these eight characters can be seen everywhere.The wall of the airship garage at the Army Airship Yard is no exception. These eight characters remind people that fighting is the only way to survive.

What is different from the past is that today, in the huge airship field, the airship is no longer visible, it is not that the airbag of the huge airship has been emptied.

The once majestic airship has become a deflated balloon.

"Really, so much hydrogen is wasted in vain!"

Seeing his airship turn into this appearance, Wang Xinyue couldn't help feeling a little heartbroken.

Li Du laughed at the complaints from his subordinates.

"Didn't they also recycle some of the hydrogen gas? It's expensive, but if you fly directly there, not only will it take a long time, but also the sea voyage is very risky. If an accident occurs, it will be bad. After all, we only have fifty-eight airships in total."

"Besides, this mission has a lot to do with it. Have you researched your route yet?"

"Sir, let's talk in the office."

The so-called office is in the corner of the airship cabin. It is an office of more than ten square meters. The walls and tables are covered with maps.

After entering the office and closing the door, Wang Xinyue spread out a map and said.

"According to the plan, the troops will first arrive at Madita at the mouth of the Congo River by boat, and then we will open up an airship field there. After the troops rest, we will transfer from the air to the second point of departure. About the local airship field?"

Wang Xinyue looked up at the officer and asked.

"It must be finished by then!"

"It will definitely be completed. When you set off, some troops will take a boat to Guinea. It will take at most half a month to open up an airship field."

"Not only do we need to build an airship yard, but we also need to build an airship garage. The local environment is tropical. If there is a tropical storm, without the protection of the airship garage, it will be bad if the airship is damaged."

"I know!"

Li Du nodded, and his fingers moved along the inland route drawn between Madita and Guinea.

"This is our route."

"Yes, our route should be as inland as possible. My plan is to take the airship to Kinshasa by train after landing in Madita, and then start from the inland, so as to avoid tropical storms along the coast. When the storm reaches the inland area, the wind will weaken a lot. After arriving at Xincheng Port in Guinea, we will wait for orders, but the airship cabin must be built as soon as possible. After all, it is the local rainy season starting from June."

When Wang Xinyue was urging the airship depot again, Li Du had already set his sights on another route. That route pointed directly to the north. Where is the end of the route?
It's France!
According to the plan, they will sail all the way to France!

"Paris……"

Staring at the map, Li Du said seriously.

"The ultimate goal of our voyage is Paris. After arriving in Paris, we will join the war. What we need is to cover the operations of the French army from the air. This is our advantage. The sky, only we exist."

"Why can't we send troops directly from Nanhua to France? After all, wouldn't it be safer? Now our route, although divided into two sections, has a total distance of more than [-] kilometers. Each section is [-] kilometers long." We have never sailed so far. It is a long-distance voyage of three thousand kilometers at most."

As the captain with the most experience in the airship unit, Wang Xinyue once flew the airship all the way south to Tierra del Fuego, and after symbolically replenishing supplies to the local garrison, he returned to Nanhua.

That is the farthest distance traveled by air in human history so far, and now?He was to lead the troops on a farther voyage.

"Our flight is not just to help France! It is to test!"

When Li Du was speaking, he glanced out of the door subconsciously. Although he knew that there were people guarding the door and would not let anyone approach him, he still lowered his voice and said.

"Our voyage this time is ostensibly to support France at an appropriate time, but in fact, it is to prepare for the next expedition."

"For the next expedition?"

Wang Xinyue was puzzled.

"What do you mean, sir?"

"U.K!"

Li Du pointed to another corner on the map and said softly.

"U.K!"

Opening his eyes wide, Wang Xinyue exclaimed in a low voice.

"Is there any problem between us and England?"

"How can there be no problem? Britain has always been hostile to our control of the La Plata River Basin. The reason why we aid France is because we worry that France will lose the war, which will cause Britain to lose control. At that time, they will stretch their hands into Nanhua. At that time, even if we don't want to fight, we can only be forced to fight."

Explaining the reason for supporting France, Li Du said with a sigh.

"But we don't know the outcome of this war, but what is certain is the United Kingdom. In the future, conflicts between us and the British are inevitable. Your Majesty and the staff believe that in the next ten to fifteen years , We are very likely to break out of war with Britain, so we need to use this opportunity to conduct a long-distance voyage test."

Walking to the edge of the map, Li Du's finger drew another line on the map.

"Once a war broke out between us and the United Kingdom, the airship troops would take off from Guinea and go straight to the British mainland, bombing the factories in the British mainland, especially the shipyards, and weakening Britain's war potential through large-scale bombing. After all, our The industrial strength of Britain is far less than that of Britain, but by bombing British factories, it can weaken the industrial strength of Britain, so that the war will develop in our favor."

This... war can be fought like this!

Even though Wang Xinyue was an officer of the airship unit, this style of play still left him speechless in shock.

Once upon a time, what did he think the purpose of the airship was?

It was nothing more than bombing, bombing, and bombing.But he never thought that one day airships could travel thousands of kilometers to carry out aerial "expeditions" and directly destroy the enemy's war potential by bombing factories.

"Sir, this, this..."

Looking at the dumbfounded Wang Xinyue, Li Du patted him on the shoulder and said.

"Don't flatter me. I didn't come up with this style of play. It's Your Majesty. Your Majesty calls it "strategic bombing"!"
