Yaojin and Bei Jing are very close. Qiao Yu is also very concerned about this breakthrough and came to Bayuzao's research institute in person. However, it is wartime after all. As the president, Qiao Yu must have very strict security work.
, so Qiao Yu did not meet with the workers' employment representative as before, but simply looked at the plane, and Bayuzao introduced it to Qiao Yu on the side.
"President, the advantage of a biplane is that it has two wings, which can increase lift, thereby reducing the requirements for the engine. It can fly into the sky with relatively less power, but two wings means that the resistance is doubled.
With the increase in speed, it is difficult to reach a very high speed. With the development of war, monoplanes with high speed and good performance must be the general trend in the future and irreversible! The difficulty of monoplanes lies in the high-horsepower engine. There is no five hundred
It is difficult for an engine with more than 100 horsepower to make the aircraft fly."
Listening to Bayuzao's introduction, Qiao Yu nodded slightly. Qiao Yu had long been aware of the prospect of monoplanes, but he knew more about the engine problem. Military aircraft were different from civilian ones. They not only had to be able to fly, but also be able to fly.
Bring enough weapons to fight.
In fact, there have been a large number of all-metal monoplanes in the world now. These monoplanes have widely participated in aviation competitions. In terms of speed, monoplanes have surpassed the old biplanes, but the problem lies in the speed of the monoplanes.
The engine couldn't handle it and couldn't carry enough bombs and fuel.
So Qiao Yu asked with a smile: "Director Ba, so you have solved the engine problem?"
"That's right, President, through cooperation with Germany, we have developed a 700-horsepower engine that can meet the needs, but there is still a fatal flaw!"
At this point, Bayama paused. As a designer, he naturally hopes to achieve perfection, but often a cross-generational product will have major flaws when it first appears. For example, during World War II, Germany developed a
The emergence of jet aircraft is definitely a change of the times. However, this jet aircraft was no match for the very mature American Mustang fighter jets. In the end, it failed to save the fate of Nazi Germany. On the contrary, after the end of World War II, jet aircraft
Aircraft became popular.
"Director Ba, I guessed it right. It's a matter of service life?"
Bayuzao's face turned slightly red, "The president is really wise. At present, the engine can only be used for fifty hours at best. If it cannot even reach this level on a complex battlefield, this should be considered a very immature design.
, but I felt that the war was urgent, so I rushed to design the aircraft, and I hope the president will not take offense."
"Director Ba is overthinking it. The new product must have various shortcomings. Please introduce to me the specific performance data, maybe it will have unexpected effects!"
When Bayusao heard that Qiao Yu confirmed his work, he was very excited and said hurriedly: "This aircraft has a wingspan of 9.5 meters, a length of 7 meters, a cruising speed of 300 kilometers, and a maximum cruising speed of 500 kilometers. The ceiling is
Eight thousand meters, equipped with two 20mm cannons, capable of carrying 300 kilograms of bombs!"
As he spoke, Bayuzao led Qiao Yu to the workshop. A shining silver plane appeared in front of Qiao Yu, with the five-color flag painted on the fuselage. From the appearance alone, this plane looked...
It has a wild and unruly feel, more ferocious and more combat-effective than those biplanes.
Especially when Qiao Yu heard Bayusao's introduction that the maximum speed could reach 500 kilometers, Qiao Yu's eyes suddenly lit up. This may be a very worth using data, but it is indeed a bit too little to be able to mount only 300 kilograms of bombs.
.
"Director Ba, do you think the speed of this plane can be increased?"
Bayuzao had a wry smile on his face and shook his head slightly, "This is already the limit. If you want to increase the speed, you need to get a more powerful engine. It is difficult to do it in a short time. I think the next step should be to focus on
It is to make up for the shortcomings and balance the various indicators of the aircraft, so that it can exert its maximum combat effectiveness, rather than simply pursuing speed!"
"Haha, Director Ba, you have fallen into the misunderstanding of designing recruits. Regarding war, I have always believed that there are weapons and wars, and the four words are to use strengths and avoid weaknesses. If you blindly pursue high performance,
, high technology is not the best choice. What I mean is that you can move your hands and feet in other directions, compare to modifying the wings, changing the current all-metal wings to aluminum frames, and using the rest.
Fill it with Paulownia wood, so that the empty weight will be reduced. In addition, the fuel tank can be reduced, and the cannon can also be replaced with a machine gun!"
After Qiao Yu finished speaking, Bayusao looked at him blankly. The methods mentioned by the great president can reduce the weight of the aircraft and increase its speed, but there is no such transformation. Isn't this just another waste of things!
"President, if I think the design is inappropriate, I will modify it immediately, but you cannot insult the wisdom of our designers!"
Ba Yuzao is a Mongolian, and he has a stubborn spirit in his bones. The same is true when facing Qiao Yu, the powerful president. Qiao Yu is not angry, but smiles: "Director Ba, have you forgotten what I just said?"
Are there any weapons for fighting? It makes sense for me to ask you to change it this way. The fatal flaw of biplanes is speed, and now the Japanese Navy has strengthened its air defense capabilities, allowing our carrier-based aircraft to fight with the opponent.
The anti-aircraft firepower is so fierce that the bayonets are red, and I am still a little worried. The precious pilots cannot be lost easily. If we can come up with a super-fast aircraft now, we can severely damage Japan!"
Bayuzao was confused when he heard this, and asked doubtfully: "President, if the aircraft is modified according to your way, no matter how fast the aircraft is, it will have no combat effectiveness."
"Director Ba, I won't hide it from you. The military has long recruited some North Korean soldiers and conducted strict training on them. They perform the mission of dead soldiers. I plan to use this aircraft as a suicide attack aircraft.
When necessary, let these North Korean pilots attack Japanese warships. For rookies like them, speed is everything!"
Almost all people in later generations feel that this suicidal attack method is unethical and cruel. Some people with ulterior motives will even question those heroes who sacrificed their lives for victory in the war. In fact, those people are all just complaining and are pedantic.
pole.
In war, the enemy is just a tool, and its function is to win. No matter how much the price is paid, no matter how cruel the method is, as long as you win, you will get enough rewards. If you fail, you will have nothing.
There is no other way for Qiao Yu to ask Bayuzao to design a suicide plane. In fact, it is not just North Korea. If necessary, Chinese pilots will also have to carry out this mission. At this moment when the country or I die, all the soldiers must
To be able to make the simplest, yet greatest choice, to put it simply, is to be forced to do nothing!
Bayuzao is not an idiot. When Qiao Yu said this, he knew very well that he was going to use the same-death strategy and use planes as bombs to attack Japanese warships.
"Don't worry, President, I will modify the aircraft as soon as possible and produce twenty of them within half a month!"
This is wartime efficiency. Under normal circumstances, the aircraft must undergo detailed test flights before it can enter the mass production stage and finally be equipped with the army. This process will definitely be delayed for a year and a half, and the more sophisticated the aircraft, the longer it will take.
, it is not uncommon for later generations to spend ten or even twenty years sharpening a sword.
In this ever-changing war situation, China can only solve everything as quickly as possible. In addition, the pilots flying such aircraft are also determined to die and will not care about anything else!
Of course, suicide attacks can only be used as a means. The most important thing is the efforts of the Chinese Navy. Now both China and Japan are brewing a naval war. Japan's defeat in North Korea and the sinking of the Tosa have made Tokyo unbearable.
, they are like wounded beasts, urgently in need of a crazy counterattack, and China does not want to drag on like this, and must break the maritime deadlock.
You must know that less than two months after the war started, China's foreign trade has been reduced by more than 80%, which is terrible. If this delay continues, China's efforts to catch up with the world's industrial trends will be greatly restricted.
It's the most terrible thing.
However, a war requires detailed planning. China will not act rashly and must stabilize the occupied area. China has now captured Pyongyang. As the commander-in-chief of the group army, Shi Yi will naturally lead his men into North Korea, but the people accompanying him
and Minister of the Interior Li Zongwu.
"Mr. Li, you are very busy. How can the president be willing to put you in a remote country like North Korea?"
"Commander Shi, I don't want to come either, but Japan has been ruling Korea for a long time, and a large number of Korean scum have accepted Japan's rule. This kind of scum must be eliminated. In addition, there are a large number of scum in North Korea.
I have to come because I have to investigate, punish, and confiscate my child's reversed childbirth!"
Reverse production? As soon as these two words were spoken, Shi Yi guessed Li Zongwu's mission. To put it simply, he came to search for North Korea. You must know that after Japan occupied North Korea, it invested hundreds of billions of capital.
, and it is mainly concentrated in the north, where there is road transportation and a large number of industrial and mining enterprises. This is a shocking amount of wealth. Shi Yi also guessed that China would not let it go. He did not expect it to come so soon.
"Mr. Li, is he going to be diagnosed with reverse labor?"
"That's natural. In addition to Japanese assets, many people in North Korea have made their fortunes by relying on Japan's colonial government. These are all ill-gotten gains. There are factory owners, entrepreneurs, bankers, and landlords.
, these are all within the strike range!”
"Mr. Li, you want to catch them all in one fell swoop, aren't you being too cruel?"
"Commander Shi, there is a saying in the army that kindness does not lead the army. How could you forget? But some things require the cooperation and help of Commander Shi!"
This is what Li Zongwu said and what he did. After arriving in North Korea, Li Zongwu took the first step to announce a comprehensive takeover of all financial institutions and Japanese assets. Then he began to announce the abolition of the original Japanese currency and banned the flow of gold and silver for a limited time.
Everything must be converted into new currency in half a month. If you dare to hide even a little bit, you will be shot and beheaded!
Finance has always been the best way to plunder wealth. China soon obtained a large amount of gold and silver. In addition, Li Zongwu also began to move all valuable things, machinery and equipment, ores and wood, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and even cattle.
If you don't let it go, the whole of North Korea will be swept away by a big broom, leaving nothing behind!
