If the process of human progress is divided into countless stages, imagining the 21st century from the beginning of the 20th century is as incredible as imagining the early 20th century from the early 19th century.
Think about it, what was there in the early 19th century?
Steam engines had just been used on ships, electricity had just appeared, Edison hadn't even been born yet, and anything powered by electricity looked more like a toy.
But by the early 20th century, gasoline engine-driven cars were becoming more and more popular. Diesel engines were not only used in tanks and ships, but also used with electric motors on submarines. Planes soared in the sky. They were still in Corsica in the morning and arrived in Paris at noon.
As for the 21st century, well, only Qin Zhiyuan knows what the 21st century was like in the past, and now Qin Zhiyuan is not sure, because of his appearance, whether the 21st century in this time and space is the same as the 21st century in another time and space.
At least the capabilities of the aircraft have been greatly improved.
Because of Qin Zhiyuan's appearance, the bomber's range has now exceeded 1,500 kilometers. In another time and space, this range would not be reached until ten years later.
In another 20 years, or in another 10 years, the range of aircraft may exceed 3,000 kilometers, or even further. If an air force is deployed in Moon Bay by then, then if you look at the map, you will find the location of Moon Bay.
Very important, extremely important. Qin Zhiyuan explained it eloquently.
Foch actually found a map and measured the distance with a ruler, and then sat there for a long time without making a sound.
Just when Qin Zhiyuan wanted to see Julie, Foch finally said: Qin, do you want to ask Lyautey these things in advance?
Foch's voice was hoarse, which shocked Qin Zhiyuan: Ferdinand, we have a special relationship, so I can tell you this. If it was Lyautey, do you think he would believe it?
You didn't say anything, how do you know that he refused to believe Foch and was unwilling to do so.
You know the reason why I modified these two aircraft carriers. It is not a secret. Lyautey may have noticed it, or he may not have noticed it. George Legge may have noticed it, but they didn't say anything. Lyautey's thoughts are on
They would not believe that the veterans were placed on board, but George's thoughts were on the Legion-class battleship. Qin Zhiyuan told the truth.
Qin Zhiyuan's two aircraft carriers were refitted in French shipyards. Of course, it was impossible to hide this from the French, and Qin Zhiyuan did not want to hide it.
Of course, whether it will be taken seriously or not is beyond Qin Zhiyuan's control.
You should have made your reminder more explicit, rather than being so subtle. Foch was still not satisfied.
God, Ferdinand, you know, I can't decide what they think, unless I am also the emperor of France, but obviously I am not. Qin Zhiyuan distanced himself.
This is George Legault's dereliction of duty, and it is also your dereliction of duty. Don't forget, you still have French nationality. Foch's three views are correct enough.
Please, Ferdinand, I don't serve in the Admiralty and I don't have that obligation. And even if I say it, who would believe it? After all, there is no sufficient evidence to prove this. Qin Zhiyuan really doesn't want to cause this trouble.
For the current mainstream thinking, battleships are the main ship type of the navy, and aircraft carriers only play a supporting role. If anyone now asserts that aircraft carriers will replace battleships in the future, that would be a big joke.
Don't worry, Ferdinand, as long as I'm here, France won't suffer. Think of something happy. You don't need to worry about those things anymore. Qin Zhiyuan hit the bottom with one shot.
Ha, yes, it’s time for us old guys to retire, and the future belongs to you young people. Foch finally faced reality.
Don’t worry, I will value your role as a consultant. Qin Zhiyuan will be relieved in time.
It's always like this with old people, they know their time is over, but few old guys are willing to admit it, especially those with a glorious past.
I am just a consultant, and I am enjoying life while working. Foch has a clear understanding of his position.
Okay, okay. Qin Zhiyuan was perfunctory and made a face at Julie who was pouting next to him.
During her pregnancy, Julie had severe mood swings, and she was immediately amused by Qin Zhiyuan.
Qin Zhiyuan, who did not hesitate to make fun of his father-in-law in order to amuse his wife, then realized that Foch looked ugly.
Hahaha, Julie is really laughing now.
While Julie was laughing, Wang Wenchang was also laughing, but compared to Julie's laugh, Wang Wenchang's way was much wilder.
Wow hahaha you don’t know who he is. Wang Wenchang pointed at Carl Fon and laughed endlessly, while Liu Shuangxi next to him had a calm expression.
Let me introduce you formally, this is our captain, the famous darling of the God of Luck, the recipient of the Grand Knight of the Legion of Honor, and Sergeant Major Liu who once personally captured your Crown Prince William.
Overall, if it weren't for the last comment, it might be better.
Well, actually, you don't need to emphasize it. I know that this gentleman's surname is Liu. Carl Fon has tried his best to control his emotions, but he still can't help but look at Liu Shuangxi a few more times.
Liu Shuangxi didn't take it seriously. His state of mind had reached the state of Gu Jingbubo: Where is your company commander? I have a mission here that requires your cooperation. Please take me to him.
The scouts Liu Shuangxi belongs to are a very special unit. Under normal circumstances, they can conduct reconnaissance and mobilize ordinary troops without asking for instructions from their superiors. They only need to report afterwards.
The scouts of the Foreign Legion are similar to the special forces units of later generations. This is a force that has been surrounded by enemies from the moment of its birth.
The orders they execute are often very dangerous and highly time-sensitive. If they are reported according to the normal process, it is likely to delay the fighter plane, so this regulation is introduced.
Okay, please follow me. Carl von verified the IDs of Liu Shuangxi and others in accordance with the regulations, and then took Liu Shuangxi to find Chen Yongsheng.
In fact, when he saw Liu Shuangxi, Carl von had already confirmed the identities of Liu Shuangxi and the others. As for checking the documents, this was just a part of the standard process.
The uniforms of the scouts are obviously different from the uniforms of the ordinary troops of the Foreign Legion. The uniforms of the ordinary troops of the Foreign Legion are the same blue and gray as before. It is only because of the special nature of the combat environment this time that a set of white ones were issued. They have not yet been issued.
It's the season to change into clothes, so Carlvon and the others are still wearing blue and gray military uniforms.
The clothing of the scout troops has a certain camouflage effect, and is composed of multi-color deformation blocks. Of course, if it is the 21st century, many people will know that this is called camouflage color, but in the early 20th century, this is absolutely
It is the most unconventional color.
Uh no, there are many colors.
Clothes of this color are currently unique in the world, so Carl von can easily recognize them.
To be honest, Carl Fon envied this color because it represented almost the most powerful force.
Similarly, Chen Yongsheng also liked this color, so when he learned that the scout troop needed his help, Chen Yongsheng readily agreed.
Well, although it has been more than a month since entering Russia, more than a dozen battles of various sizes have been fought, and Chen Yongsheng has made a lot of contributions, Chen Yongsheng's average level is still captain, and even Kalvon and others cannot be promoted.
Just a few days ago, when a unit of Russia's southeastern armed forces raised a butcher knife against civilians again, Liu Shuangxi finally couldn't help it and ordered that unit to be disarmed from top to bottom.
Although this move saved the lives of thousands of Russians, it also caused Chen Yongsheng and others to violate battlefield discipline, so the rumors that they were about to be promoted fell silent again.
However, Chen Yongsheng has no regrets. Compared with getting promoted and getting rich, Chen Yongsheng focuses more on protecting the humanity in his heart that has not yet been wiped out.
Chen Yongsheng does not want his troops to turn into a group of killing machines.
Well, if you agree, then we must move forward lightly now. You have to abandon your cars and armored vehicles and go over the mountains and cross-country on foot with us. Is there any problem? Liu Shuangxi did not hide the difficulties he was about to face.
No problem, we can set off at any time. Chen Yongsheng took care of everything, and then added: However, the strength of my troops here is now less than one company, and there are only two platoons that can fight, about a hundred or so.
As a leading soldier, Chen Yongsheng's troops have been fighting all the time. His company has never been full since entering Russia. Even if it has just been replenished, there will be combat attrition again in at most three days.
Okay, let's set off in half an hour. Liu Shuangxi didn't talk nonsense. After speaking, he looked at the watch in his hand and said, "It's a quarter past ten in the morning. We'll be waiting for you on the east hillside at a quarter to eleven."
Although watches were invented in the West, Chinese people still like to use Chinese methods to express time. For example, a quarter is about 15 minutes.
After Liu Shuangxi and others left, Chen Yongsheng immediately arranged for the troops to prepare. Those who could fight had to pack up, and those who could not fight had to stand by and wait to be sent to the field hospital.
Although Liu Shuangxi did not explain the specific mission, Chen Yongsheng still made full preparations. Each soldier must carry three days of rations, as many bullets and grenades as possible, bedding and other things. It is summer now, whatever.
You can make ends meet just by taking a nap.
Soldiers are not so particular.
Just when Chen Yongsheng and others were preparing to set off, Zheng Jingcai appeared dragging a rifle with a bayonet.
Can you go too? I know Zheng Jing is a man of few words and Chen Yongsheng doesn't talk nonsense.
Zheng Jing was injured in yesterday's battle. A stray bullet penetrated Zheng Jing's abdomen. Fortunately, he was not seriously injured.
This does not mean that it is serious, but it means that he will not die. Zheng Jing is always brave every time he fights. He is almost always on the injured list, but he never misses a battle.
Upon hearing Chen Yongsheng's question, Zheng Jing's reaction was not what Chen Yongsheng expected, and he simply nodded.
nod
That's enough.
To be honest, Chen Yongsheng now found that Zheng Jing was qualified both as a deputy company commander and as a soldier.
Zheng Jing hardly spoke, but he would take the lead and set an example for the soldiers every time.
Zheng Jing's combat skills are still passable. Whether it is stabbing or shooting, Zheng Jing's performance can reach an excellent level.
If you think about it, you can understand it. Eagle Claw Kung Fu is all about hand skills. You can even use concealed weapons easily. Shooting a gun or something is not a problem, okay?
