Fengxian Jiangshan

Chapter 396 The Value of Fengjun

"Marshal, you can't hide anything from your old eyes. The Japanese are absolutely unwilling to lose their lucrative oil extraction industry. According to their temperament, they may use force to persecute them. We can't always be passive. So I think We should deter the Japanese first, let them put away their bad thoughts, and return to the negotiating table obediently, so that we can achieve our goal smoothly."

"Well, this is also a way, you can arrange it first, and I will participate in person when the time comes."

"Father, can you give me a chance? I want to try it in the Air Force."

Zhang Zuolin glanced at Zhang Xueliang and said, "Han Qing, the Air Force is a new branch of Fengjun. Do you know about airplanes?"

Zhang Xueliang shook his head. Seeing that Lao Zhang's face was a bit uneasy, he hurriedly said: "Father, it's okay if you don't understand. Don't we have so many talents? We usually listen to their opinions and learn more. Figured it out.”[

Zhang Tinglan also smiled and said: "Marshal, Hanqing is full of enthusiasm. The Air Force is new, and those designers and pilots are young people. If you arrange a young officer, maybe there will be better results. You are old. Agreed."

Zhang Zuolin thought for a while, then nodded: "Little six, I will appoint you as the director of the Fengtian Aviation Bureau now. After the plane is completed, the air force is also in good shape. You will be the commander of the air force. If you can't, I will kill you." If we withdraw, it will be useless for anyone to intercede!"

"Don't worry!" Zhang Xueliang gave a military salute excitedly.

Everything was almost arranged, and Zhang Tinglan also sent invitations to Fengtian's major foreign institutions, inviting them to come and watch the air show, including the Japanese Consul General Akajiri Masasuke, and almost all major powers were included in the invitation.

After getting the invitation letter.Akajiri Masasuke immediately frowned. Now China and Japan are having a heated argument over the soybean issue. The Japanese government has received a report, and Tokyo is furious.

There is a revolution in Russia.The Japanese suffered heavy losses. The Japanese provided Russia with a large amount of arms, and in order to open the door to Russia, the Japanese sprinkled a lot of money to bribe the upper echelons of Russia. In the end, all these payments were due to the revolution of the majority party. .The bamboo basket fetches water in vain.

Including the Emperor of Japan, everyone was alarmed, and the whole of Japan was in an uproar. The major military enterprises needed to inject funds to help tide over the difficulties, and the funds that could be invested outside were very limited.And no matter how you say it, the South Manchuria Railway and the Bank of Korea are on the list of bailouts, ranking ahead of the oil mills.

The Japanese government has issued an order to Akajiri Masasuke. If you want money, you must let Fengtian succumb, and you must provide soybeans to save Japan's oil extraction industry.

To put it bluntly, this requirement is to let the horse run.They don't feed the horses.Akajiri Masasuke is already very worried. The Fengtian government is smelly and tough. It cannot be solved by simple intimidation, and the oil extraction industry has to be rescued. After much deliberation, Akajiri Masasuke can only contact the Kwantung Army. He hopes that the Kwantung The army conducts a military exercise.

Only by showing Japan's powerful military power, Fengtian may back down, but it's not a coincidence.Before they could set up their positions, Fengtian had already acted first. He was going to hold some air show, and immediately poked Akajiri Masasuke's sensitive nerves.

The Fengtian government wants to show Japan its strength!Akajiri Masasuke thought about it and decided to visit it.Take a look at the medicine sold in Fengjun's gourd, and take a look at the strength of Fengtian Air Force by the way.

Compared with Akajiri Masasuke's full of suspicion, the representatives of other countries are very interested in Fengtian's invitation. Since Fengjun robbed the Middle East Road, countries have increased their attention to Fengjun. They want to evaluate this emerging team. Will the powerful fighter jets have any impact on China, and even the entire Far East pattern?

These big powers are all masters of chess. On the chessboard in the Far East, if there is an extra piece suddenly, it means that there is an extra possibility of counting. Therefore, they are all enthusiastic and readily agreed to Feng Jun's invitation.

"Yunhua, one day will be the time for the official air show, how are you preparing?"

Zhang Tinglan and Zhang Xueliang came to the aircraft experiment site together. Ever since Zhang Xueliang officially became the director of the flight bureau with the permission of his father Zhang Zuolin, he was very excited. After coming over, these two young people have a strong interest in aircraft. Now that Fengjun has aviation power, how can they not pay attention, and they all followed Zhang Tinglan to the experimental site.

At this time, beside the runway, I was listening to a fighter jet that had just been assembled and debugged. In Zhang Tinglan's opinion, this fighter jet was undoubtedly quite backward. It could only be said that an engine was installed on a pile of wooden frames, and the cabin was also open. , the only advantage is that it can be used as a convertible car.

But Zhang Xueliang and Feng Yong were quite excited. They noticed the special features of this plane at a glance. In order to increase the lift, most current planes use biplanes, and even triplanes, but the plane in front of them only has a single wing. , keeping them fresh.

Bayuzao also excitedly introduced to them: "We discussed and designed this aircraft in the United States. It has two main features, one is the layout of the single wing, and the other is the configuration of the machine gun. Although the biplane can bring a lot of Good lift, but slow flight speed and poor maneuverability, I think monoplanes are the trend of the future, this aircraft has excellent maneuverability and can freely fight in the air."

At the end of the introduction, Bayuzao led everyone to the nose position, pointed to the machine gun equipped on the nose, and continued: "The firepower of an aircraft is the foundation of combat effectiveness. According to the principle, it is better to install the machine gun on the nose. It can get the best shooting view, but because the nose is blocked by the propeller, it is easy to damage the propeller when shooting, which is a very troublesome thing. Later we saw the report about the European air battle, and Seeing some pictures, the Germans have already solved this problem, Yu Peng and the others have been researching for more than a month, and finally came up with a design coordinator to solve this problem.”[

Wang Zhu also said from the side: "It's just an idea. We have manufactured these aircraft, but we can't test weapons in the United States. If we want to see if it is useful, we need to verify it."

As a rising power, the Americans take very strict precautions against other backward regions, and they do not want advanced equipment to fall into the hands of China.Bayuzao and the others were able to produce aircraft parts in the United States, but they also relied on their relationships. In the end, they shipped them out of the United States in the name of civil aircraft parts, and they returned money to the US Customs before they were successfully shipped back to China. They wanted to experiment with weapons. I can only go back home.

"Then let's experiment now, let us see it too!" Zhang Xueliang said with a smile on the side.

Wang Zhu also nodded. Jiang Kui was in charge of flying the plane. After he entered the cockpit, he started the plane.

"This aircraft has a wingspan of 9 meters and a length of 51 meters. Its maximum take-off weight is 7 kilograms and its flight speed can reach 32 kilometers. Generally speaking, it is still a very good fighter. The only problem is that the power of the engine is too low. It is small, and its volume is slightly larger. If you can get the most advanced engine, it can completely compete with the fighter jets of the great powers on the European battlefield.” Bayuzao explained confidently.

"Don't focus on the European powers, as long as they can overwhelm our evil neighbor Japan."

"Mr. Zhuoyan, don't worry, the Japanese are nothing to worry about." Li Ruyan said with a smile: "Oriental people don't pay much attention to aircraft, and at most they equip some seaplanes, which can only be used for investigation. In fact, this is also related to the Japanese government. The generals of the sea and land are already in sharp opposition, if an air force is being established, how should their interests be distributed!"

While they were chatting, Jiang Kui had already circled the fighter several times in the air, making different combat movements, going up for a while, going down for a while, and making continuous turns, all showing very flexible characteristics.

Suddenly Jiang Kui was driving the plane, quickly lowering the altitude, and the machine gun on the nose was aimed at the target on the ground in the distance. After aiming, a series of bullets were spit out.

Da da da, just swept across a target, when the plane climbed again, it was already a mess, Jiang Kui flew the plane over, and flew back with unfinished business, the machine gun shot down again, after two times The ravages, more than a dozen paper targets on the ground were smashed to pieces.

If people were below, they would undoubtedly be smashed to pieces by machine guns. Seeing this scene, Zhang Xueliang and Feng Yong rejoiced. The plane is definitely not just a tool that looks fun, it has terrible lethality. No matter how difficult it is to bring destruction to the enemy, Zhang Xueliang is also extremely excited to become the commander of such a force.

Jiang Kui flew the plane and finally returned to the ground gracefully. Bayuzao, Wang Zhu and others rushed over quickly, checked by themselves, and confirmed that there was no problem with their design. Everyone showed satisfied smiles.

Bayuzao and the others seized the time to install machine guns on several other planes, conducted flight tests, and then waited for the official flight demonstration.

When it was the right day, Zhang Zuolin, the patrol envoy of the three eastern provinces, brought his civil and military officials to the airport to watch the performance. In addition to them, the consul generals and military attache representatives from various countries in Fengtian came one after another, and the scene was very lively. , Akajiri Masasuke saw this, and was a little dazed. He hadn't figured out why these countries were so eager.

At this time, Zhang Tinglan had already stood in front of all the guests, and said to everyone: "Dear guests, the air force of the Fengjun here today will be formally established. This brand new force will, like other Fengjun soldiers, protect the home and defend the country. As we all know, a revolution has broken out in Russia, and the plague of the majority party is spreading to the world, and Fengjun has the obligation to stand at the forefront of the fight against the majority party..."
