Chapter 343: Another 200 million pound order
As early as yesterday, Zhang Zongqing made an appointment with Prime Minister Qiu Jier of the Eagle Kingdom and his Air Force Commander-in-Chief Hannibal.
This appointment was when Zhang Zongqing wanted to use the P51 fighter jet to officially open the arms sales door of the Eagle Kingdom Air Force.
Leaving his residence, Zhang Zongqing once again got into the car heading to the office of Qiu Jier, the Prime Minister of the Eagle Kingdom.
During this period, Zhang Zongqing had traveled back and forth between Qiu Jier's office and his residence many times.
However, this time, it was probably the last time Zhang Zongqing's trip to the British Isles, and he stepped into the office of Qiu Jier, the Prime Minister of the Eagle Kingdom.
The car slowly drove forward, and Zhang Zongqing raised his head and looked out the window.
Compared with the gray sky in the past, today's British islands are actually a rare sunny day.
The sunshine dispels the haze that lingers in people's hearts.
Zhang Zongqing was also speechless about this. He had not encountered such weather several times in the British Isles for so many days.
It seems that the Great Brutal Empire is still not very friendly to him!
"Second Young Master, the Prime Minister's Mansion No. 10, Tangning Street has arrived!"
I heard the voice of my personal bodyguard Zhou Weiguo.
Zhang Zongqing nodded, then pushed open the door and walked out.
In the Prime Minister's office at No. 10 Downing Street, Qiu Jier, who was holding a cigar in his mouth, looked at Zhang Zongqing's figure walking into the building.
He turned to Hannibal, the commander of the Air Force, who was standing beside him, and said, "Chang, come here!"
"Is General Zhang from China? It turns out that the distinguished guest the Prime Minister wants to recommend to me is General Zhang from China!"
"However, the Chinese army has great combat power, the Prime Minister recommends that General Zhang, who is from China, will improve the combat effectiveness of our Great Eagle Empire Air Force, probably not very big!"
As the commander-in-chief of the Eagle Kingdom's Air Force, Marshal Hannibal had strong confidence in the combat effectiveness of the Eagle Kingdom's Air Force.
"Hannibal, in the land war between China and the Big Bear, the Chinese air force defeated the fighter fleet composed of thousands of fighter jets from the Big Bear with fewer fighters."
Qiu Jier took the cigar in his hand and said with a smile to Hannibal, the commander-in-chief of the Eagle Air Force standing beside him.
"Can those old fighter jets in the Big Bear Kingdom stay at the level of World War I also call them fighter jets?"
"Although the air battle in China achieved great results, it was because China's opponents were too weak."
Hannibal, commander-in-chief of the Eagle Kingdom Air Force, commented.
As a very traditional and proud Eagle Country soldier.
Hannibal's concept did not change rapidly.
After all, China has been weak for more than a hundred years, and a powerful air force has appeared in less than ten years. This is not something that can be easily accepted by people.
"Hannibal, if you have met Zhang Zongqing, you will find that he is definitely an amazing person."
"The combat effectiveness of the Chinese Air Force, which he created by him, should not be too weak."
While speaking, there was a knock on the door.
"He's here!" Qiu Jier said to Hannibal with a smile.
After saying that, the office door was opened.
Sure enough, Zhang Zongqing appeared in front of Qiu Jier's office.
...
Zhang Zongqing is so familiar with the office that he has been to many times.
He walked directly to the front of the shelf where the wine bottles were treasured by Qiu Jier.
Then he took off the country F wine treasured by Qiu Jier.
"General Zhang, you have drunk a lot of my inventory these days in Eagle Country. Now you are my least favorite visitor!"
Qiu Jier was talking and laughing, while taking the wine bottle handed over by Zhang Zongqing.
Use the priming stool to open the wine bottle, and a mellow smell penetrated into the noses of the three of them.
Qiu Jier raised his wine glass and sipped gently.
At this time, Zhang Zongqing was straight to the point and took out a document from the file bag he brought.
"Mr. Qiu Jier, Mr. Hannibal, these are some design drawings and related performance data for the latest generation of fighter aircraft developed by our China."
"Are you interested in seeing it?"
Although Zhang Zongqing said that he was interested in asking them if they were interested in seeing it, he had already stuffed the document directly into Qiu Jier's hands.
At first, Qiu Jier still had a smile on his face. He didn't think that the document brought by Zhang Zongqing would have anything to be exciting.
But soon, Qiu Jier's face changed.
"Is this really the performance data of the latest fighter jet developed in China?"
Qiu Jier looked at Zhang Zongqing in extreme shock, with an incredible expression on his face.
Hannibal, commander-in-chief of the Eagle Kingdom Air Force, felt extremely strange when he saw Prime Minister Qiu Jier's expression.
He took the document from Qiu Jier's hand, and when he saw the relevant data on the document, he became extremely shocked.
“1490 horsepower, maximum speed of 711 km/h and practical ceiling of 12696 meters.”
"The maximum range can also reach 2,755 kilometers, and the combat radius reaches 1,020 kilometers, which can fully cover many areas of the Yuzhou continent to launch attacks."
When Hannibal, the commander-in-chief of the Eagle Air Force, saw these data, he showed an incredible expression.
It's really unbelievable!
How could such a powerful fighter jet be born in the hands of China?
Just before, Hannibal believed that the combat effectiveness of the Chinese Air Force was uncertain.
But if this fighter is really the latest main fighter developed by China, it only needs to give the Chinese Air Force a certain amount of time, and China will definitely have a terrifyingly powerful air force.
Hannibal hurriedly looked through some of the design drawings called the "JI1 fighter".
After he finished reading this part of the design drawings, he fully believed that this fighter was indeed made by China.
Moreover, Hannibal no longer had any doubts about the performance of this fighter.
Before becoming commander-in-chief of the Eagle Kingdom Air Force, Hannibal was once the ace pilot of the Eagle Kingdom.
During World War I, as the ace pilot of the Great Eagle Empire, Hannibal shot down twenty-two fighter jets in Country D alone.
For this purpose, Hannibal even received the medal personally awarded by the King of the Eagle Kingdom.
Therefore, Hannibal has a low understanding of fighter jets.
So just by seeing the design drawings of this fighter, Hannibal could tell that the performance of this fighter is absolutely powerful.
After putting this drawing on the table, Hannibal looked at Zhang Zongqing with an unprecedented solemn expression.
Then he turned to look at Qiu Jier, the Prime Minister of the Eagle Kingdom, and said, "We need this fighter jet, we need it very much!"
"If we can get this fighter jet, our Great Eagle Empire's air force combat effectiveness will be improved to a higher level!"
It turns out that he was a soldier, Hannibal said directly.
Zhang Zongqing did not expect that the commander-in-chief of the Air Force of the Great Eagle Empire would be so direct.
This allows him to spend less time on verbalism.
"This fighter jet is a top fighter jet designed by our country and is being developed."
"And we in China have the intention to sell this fighter. If the Great Eagle Empire is interested in this fighter, we are willing to sell some fighter jets as prototypes at a reasonable price."
Zhang Zongqing looked at Qiu Jier and Hannibal with a smile, and he also revealed the purpose of the trip directly.
Qiu Jier picked up the wine glass at hand and drank the wine inside.
Then he picked up the half-bottle of wine and poured it into his glass.
"General Hannibal, is this fighter really worth buying from our Great Eagle Empire?"
Qiu Jier didn't mind that Zhang Zongqing was by his side. He looked at Hannibal, the commander-in-chief of the Air Force, and asked for his opinion.
"Prime Minister, I have never seen any fighter in this world that can exceed the theoretical design data of this fighter."
"And just judging from some of the design drawings, this fighter jet is very likely designed by Chinese fighter jet designers."
"If we can buy this fighter jet, we may be able to suppress the air force of Country D and will not be controlled by Country D's fighter jets!"
Hannibal, the commander-in-chief of the Eagle Kingdom, replied honestly.
It can be seen that he is very interested in this fighter.
Qiu Jier was silent for a moment, and he frowned and thought for a while.
After a while, Qiu Jier turned around and looked at Zhang Zongqing. He suddenly spoke to Zhang Zongqing and said, "General Zhang, if I say that our Great Eagle Empire hopes to reach a 200 million pound military purchase agreement with China for this fighter jet."
"Are you interested?"
Two hundred million pounds?!
Zhang Zongqing was obviously stunned for a moment.
Although the Eagle Kingdom is currently in a state of sunset, it is undeniable that they are really rich.
