Chapter 316

Airship flies directly to Moscow!

The current Moscow Airport and Moscow Airship Landing Ground are almost connected.

From a distance, Zheng Sen could see countless people building huge buildings on the ground.

On the airport runway, there were at least ten Kunpengs parked side by side. There were also dozens of Stukas parked neatly.

This large bomber can be described as a nightmare for Europeans.

Because the number of Kunpeng was limited, Ming Dynasty did not put them on the battlefield to directly bomb the enemy.

Instead, it is used as a command aircraft and artillery launch aircraft, with the former commanding the Stuka to bomb ground targets.

The latter is used as a gun calibration aircraft to correct the parameters of the artillery shell after checking the impact point of the artillery shell.

With the use of aircraft for artillery correction, the accuracy of the Ming Dynasty artillery continued to improve.

Even after only a short test firing, artillery can accurately overturn enemy bunkers in unfamiliar areas.

This kind of ability is not available in other countries' armies.

Even the French army under the leadership of Napoleon, who was an artilleryman, did not have the ability to shoot accurately like this.

Moreover, with Kunpeng's command, Stuka's combat efficiency has also been greatly improved.

Radio is still a big problem. Current radio equipment is still too big and heavy.

Kunpeng can fit it in and carry it.

But this is not possible on the Stuka. If there is a rich load surplus on the Stuka, the designers will first think about expanding the fuel tank or installing a larger bomb.

It has to be said that the Stuka's voyage is still too short. It is only a little more than 400 kilometers.

In other words, this is a standard front-line aircraft. There must be a qualified airfield on the front line so that the Stuka can take off frequently to fight.

However, the designers of the Stuka have spent a lot of time improving the Stuka. As a result, the current Stuka is not very picky about airports.

Even if there is no asphalt or concrete airport shell, as long as there is a hard and compact earth runway, the Stuka can take off and land.

This greatly increased the use rate of Stukas, and naturally, also greatly increased the casualties of coalition soldiers.

After the airship stopped, when Zheng Sen stepped off the flight pod, he glanced at Kunpeng again.

"Dahonglu, you can't ride on that thing yet. Although it is fast, it only takes two hours from Moscow to Vienna.

But I don't think you'd like sitting in this thing.

I have some brothers who work on airplanes, and they say that if you stay in an airplane for a whole day, you will go crazy.

"The Point Guard Is Here"

Now a Kunpeng aircraft has three crews. When fighting, the crews will be replaced when they return to the base to refuel.

There is no way, even a hardened person can't stand staying in a place full of noise and vibration for a long time.

My brother said that every time before getting on the plane, he felt sick and wanted to vomit." Zhao Liangdong, who came to pick up Zheng Sen, explained helplessly to Zheng Sen.

Lest this great Ming dynasty get on the Kunpeng plane on a whim.

That taste...! It can't be described in words.

"It's not that I want to ride on this thing, but I heard news from Germany that the German research aircraft project has made breakthrough progress.

Moreover, a German company called Mercedes and a company called Porsche have both successfully developed cars.

Although it is still in the prototype stage, I think they will be able to produce it sooner or later. And it may be very early."

"You mean, the Germans can produce cars? Have they solved the engine problem?" Zhao Liangdong was a little shocked.

Ming Dynasty has cars, tanks, and airplanes. These are all inseparable from engines!

But Daming engine technology is not mature yet.

A car engine only has a lifespan of two thousand hours, and an aircraft engine has an even shorter life span of just over a hundred hours!

The only reliable thing is the airship's engine, which has a lifespan of more than 10,000 hours.

But the aircraft engine, that head...!

Kunpeng is equipped with nothing, and it can't even pull an airship engine.

Even Ming Dynasty, which had the first-mover advantage, had nothing that could achieve a revolutionary breakthrough, so the Germans made a breakthrough?

"Haha, someone in Bavaria is already researching aircraft engines. I heard it's a four-stroke engine, but I don't know much about it.

I have already asked someone to send an official letter to the Jinzhou Research Institute to tell them what is going on. For more details, I think you have to ask Luzhu."

Zheng Sen and Zhao Liangdong talked and got into the jeep.

Jeeps are speeding through the streets of Moscow!

The roads in Moscow are all made of stones, and the jeep rides on them are extremely bumpy. The feeling is absolutely unpleasant, and it is probably the same as flying on an airplane.

Anyway, when the commander arrived at the camp, Zheng Sen was almost knocked apart by the jeep.

"What do the Germans mean? They want to buy British prisoners of war and equipment?" Li Xiao was also very surprised when he heard the news.

He did not expect that Axi would have such magnanimity and tolerate him openly helping the British.

Moreover, he knocked out his teeth and swallowed them in his stomach. He just took out the money and bought British prisoners of war from the Ming army, as well as British military equipment.

What a hero of a generation! Such courage, such courage, such helplessness...!

Li Xiao knew that Axi had no choice. As long as the British were not strengthened, he would do anything.

It's trivial to do something that can be done with just a few bucks.

The most important thing for Asch now is to capture Britain. As long as he captures Britain, his reputation in Germany will exceed that of any emperor in history.

Frederick's achievements in unifying Germany were not worth mentioning compared with the conquest of France and England.

Asch will become the greatest figure in German history. A great figure who has already achieved the ultimate in great achievements while still alive.

In the next hundreds or thousands of years, Asch will eventually become a national hero of the German nation.

In every German child's dream, there will be his shadow.

"That's what the Germans say, and they're willing to pay gold for it."

Li Xiao just thought for a moment and immediately showed a sly smile: "This matter is easy to handle.

Just do what the Germans say and sell the remaining British prisoners of war to them. Even those with missing arms and legs will be sold to the Germans."

Everyone had expected this.

After the Ming Dynasty's blackmail, England was extremely poor.

Now, even the gold objects in Buckingham Palace have been looted and used to summon prisoners of war and equipment to the Ming Dynasty.

Since the British are already so poor, it is better to change the buyers to Germans.
