Chapter 856 Let's take off, Daming (third update, please subscribe)
The sky was clear and cloudless, and the ultraviolet rays were strong on the Patagonian plateau.This even makes the sun a bit scorching, but what is actually more scorching is people's mood.

Everyone seemed a little nervous at this time.They all seemed worried about the outcome of the test flight.

Can it fly?
Everyone has no idea, but they know that this may be their last chance.

After all, this is an aircraft made of "gold".

Li Lin, who was wearing a white shirt, stretched out his arm and unfolded a strip of cloth. He was observing the wind direction and speed, and the small branches and leaves in the distance were shaking slightly.

At this time, the assistant in the laboratory shouted.

"The wind speed is 6.7 meters."

While the assistants were making final preparations for the flight, Feng Kai patted Li Lin on the shoulder and said with a smile, looking at the "Aviator One" in front of him.

"Well, envy me! If I fly, I will be the first person to fly an airplane in human history!"

Li Lin laughed loudly at his friend's words.

"I am very envious, but you are more suitable than me. Although I can also fly a glider, my skills are not as good as yours."

"Don't worry, as long as he can fly, I can definitely bring it down."

"It's definitely going to fly, I have a feeling."

Does feeling matter?

Li Lin didn't know, he cast his eyes on the photographer who was fiddling with the movie camera, he believed that today must be a day worth remembering.

At [-]:[-] in the morning, with the engine running, a strong wind blows from the nose to the rear. Under the blowing of the strong wind, Feng Kai, who was in the cockpit, could clearly feel the fuselage of the plane shaking slightly.His hand gripped the wooden joystick tightly,
The moment "Aviator One" began to glide, Li Lin's heart was clenched. Under the gaze of everyone, the plane continued to accelerate amid the roar of the engine. Finally, after gliding for almost two hundred meters, the plane stopped. The wheels of the machine began to rise slowly, as if a force was robbing it to break free from the bondage of the earth.Like a fledgling bird, its take-off was uneven, even a little stumbling.

"Fly, fly..."

Li Lin stared at the plane nervously and excitedly. In the next moment, he saw the wheels of the plane soaring into the sky.The plane lifted off the ground and took to the sky like a bird.

"Fly up, fly up..."

The moment the plane took off, everyone was shouting excitedly. They jumped and jumped, and the plane just flew over their heads and flew into the sky.

"Fly up, fly up..."

Feng Kai in the cockpit was excited inside. Although he was excited, he did not forget his duty. After flying, he slowly pushed the joystick forward while Panasonic controlled the tail surface with his feet.

Thanks to the wire-control technology of the glider, "Aviator No. [-]" has an excellent flight control system. After flying to a hundred meters in the air, Feng Kai drove the plane carefully, just maintaining a level flight, not daring to It's too big of a move, but after turning a few times in the air, I adjusted the course again and drove the plane to land on the runway...

Looking at the plane that landed steadily, Li Lin just looked at the "Aviator One" silently, unlike other people who rushed over excitedly.

"Aviator One!"

Silently reading these words, Li Lin suddenly laughed. After laughing loudly, he said:
"This is a day to remember..."

August 8th, 12th year of Sidley!
On this day, the first aircraft test flight in human history was successful. Although the flight time was only 12 minutes, this is definitely a day worthy of special mention in human history.

Only half an hour later, the military representative transferred a company of guards, and they pulled up barbed wire outside the test site. Although the test site itself is located in the army's training base, for reasons of confidentiality , They still isolated it from the base with barbed wire. Gliders were not important in the past, but airplanes... This is a project that His Majesty the Emperor is personally watching. Of course, the secrecy must be strengthened!

However, for the military, they don't know what all this means. They just make some decisions instinctively. They don't even know that the appearance of aircraft will completely change the course of the war.

All this... no one knows!
It's not that no one...one person knows!

During the test flight of "Aviator One", Emperor Zhu was at the Nanhua Arsenal. This factory has always been the most important military-industrial complex in Ming Dynasty, and it is also the place that affects the outcome of the war. Compared with the war ahead, Emperor Zhu is more concerned about it. What is the weapon.

"Are these seven-year machine guns?"

Looking at the heavy machine guns lined up in front of him, it looks a bit similar to the Maxim machine gun, but more like the Browning 1917 machine gun, especially the receiver looks very similar.As for the tripod, it is a very mature five-year-type tripod-it is a tripod designed for three-barreled Gatling machine guns, which is very similar to the Maxim tripod in another world. Although it weighs [-] kilograms, it allows Gat Lin machine guns have a certain degree of tactical mobility.

"Yes, Your Majesty, its gun body weighs only 16 kilograms, even if it is filled with water, it is less than 18 kilograms. It is [-] kilograms lighter than the five-year light Gatling machine gun. It is lighter and easier to handle. And it doesn't need to rely on batteries, as long as there are bullets and water, it can shoot almost forever..."

Liu Qingen was not bragging, he was telling the truth. Just three months ago, his machine gun fired more than [-] rounds of ammunition continuously. Even so, there was no damage and it could still continue to shoot.

"It's just that the tripod is too heavy. You can reduce the weight. After all, the army will carry it to fight in the future."

Emperor Zhu said as he walked up to the machine gun. That’s right, this is the machine gun he is familiar with—the seven-year machine gun, the firepower pillar of the Ming army in the future. In future wars, the role it will play is It's unimaginable for people today.

Of course, its output is unimaginable to outsiders. Now there are only [-] heavy machine guns here.

But what about the future?There were not even enough machine guns to equip a division.

Sitting behind the machine gun, Emperor Zhu tried to operate it, then nodded in satisfaction and said.

"The performance of these machine guns is good. I think they should be sent to the front line as soon as possible. With such new weapons, we must let our people use them as soon as possible. After all, weapons must be tested in actual combat!"

Later, Emperor Zhu inquired about its output, and when he learned that the output target was only sixty per month, he immediately urged.

"To raise the output, we have an army of [-]. If we count the mobilized troops, there are almost [-], dozens of divisions, and more than [-] regiments. How can this output meet the demand? We must increase the output as soon as possible." improve……"

Regarding the emperor's order, the Nanhua Arsenal naturally did not dare to neglect the order. Almost on the day Emperor Zhu left the Arsenal, the Armory planned to build a heavy machine gun branch. They did not know that in the next ten years, that branch would The factory is the most profitable branch of the entire arsenal.

Emperor Zhu, who got into the car, didn't know this, because as soon as he got into the car, he was really surprised by the report he just received.

"The plane... is flying..."
