As the only tycoon in the world, the British have been half-hearted in fighting this war because there are too many people who are worried about fighting the tyrants. Among them are not only enemies but also allies and some who are neither enemies nor allies.
, they had to guard against it, so the British government's performance in the war was always timid and inflexible. To put it simply, it was obviously more inclined to preserve its strength.
There has never been any substantive action against the German Navy at sea. They just locked the huge Royal Navy battle fleet in the home port to show their majesty, and sent out a large number of cruisers and destroyers to deal with the increasingly rampant German submarines. This is currently the case.
The only job of the world's largest fleet is that it has not launched any offensive since the last Battle of Otranto in the Mediterranean. It sits and watches one Ottoman Empire merchant ship after another sail into the Adriatic Sea, and then sends all kinds of ships to the Adriatic Sea.
Supplies ranging from steel to medicine were sent to Trieste.
On land, the British Army's performance was equally absent-minded. The total strength of the British Expeditionary Force assembled in northwest France has reached 1.2 million. However, except for the last unsuccessful counterattack, this more than a year of war has
The British Army has never had any good combat examples. This is also an important reason why the Russians are currently dissatisfied with Britain. Almost all major battles this year have been on the Eastern Front. The Russian army has suffered more than two million casualties and prisoners so far.
, but on the Western Front, there was always loud thunder and little rain, and there was not a single decent offensive. It was indeed difficult not to make Nicholas angry.
"Intrigue, what's happened to this world? Isn't there a little bit of simplicity and sincerity between people?" Emperor Yang said with disdain, and then asked the chief attendant: "Hasn't our foreign trade fighter jet been completed yet?"
"It should be soon. I just reminded you a few days ago that Kunpeng Company said it will take another month at most. You also know that they have many tasks now and they can be said to be stretched thin in terms of personnel." Yuan Shikai said.
"Tell them to hurry up. It's not a good thing to use by yourself. Just use it casually. Anyway, what the Germans want is nothing more than a shooting coordinator. If they delay it any longer, what else will we do if they solve this problem themselves?
Make money from them." Emperor Yang said dissatisfiedly.
This may not be impossible. Since the coagulation qi decoys showed their power on the Eastern Front, the Germans have been eager to replicate this success on the Western Front. However, there are new French fighter jets on the Western Front, and German airships used to be purely for hunting.
, now the French firmly control the air superiority on the Western Front, and have even begun to use airships built by them and the British to drop bombs on the heads of the German troops. Although the damage caused to the German troops is minimal, the blow to morale is very heavy.
Even ordinary German soldiers know that when their plane gets into the sky, they can only be held down and beaten by the French. This is extremely frustrating.
Now German aircraft manufacturers are desperately researching how to solve the problem of propeller shooting. They have even come up with the method of mounting machine guns on the wings. Although the effect is still not ideal, their research spirit cannot guarantee it.
Tian suddenly discovered that adding a cam to allow the machine gun to shoot when the propeller is turned to neutral would be a good idea. After all, this is not a high-tech thing. It is just a small invention that a young man in his twenties came up with by tapping his forehead.
"Your Majesty, I have a suggestion." Yuan Shikai said cautiously.
"Say." Yang Feng looked at him doubtfully.
"We don't know how to use this fighter jet, right?" Yuan Shikai said.
"Of course. Do you think this kind of aircraft is qualified to fight compared with the Eagle fighter?" Yang Feng said inexplicably.
"I think that in this case there is no need for us to build them. Kunpeng Company's production capacity is very tight now. They are already overwhelmed with the production tasks of Light Eagle fighter jets, Swordfish torpedo aircraft, and Thunder bombers. If we continue to produce like this
An aircraft that we have absolutely no use for and cannot be used elsewhere is too wasteful. If we just use it to make money, we can actually do it without actually producing it." Yuan Shikai said with a smile.
Yang Feng's eyes immediately lit up. He suddenly realized that he had indeed made a small mistake in this matter. It was really not cost-effective to waste Kunpeng Company's precious production capacity for a 20 million business. You must know that this company is currently
There are thousands of aircraft production tasks in hand, especially Thunder bombers. The Army Air Force's first batch of orders is for two thousand aircraft. It is simply inexplicable to take on such a small job at this time.
And as Big Touou said, this money can be earned back in other simpler ways, and even more can be earned.
"Yes, you have thought very comprehensively about this issue, so I will leave it to you to arrange this matter." Yang Feng patted the big-headed brother on the shoulder and said, with an expression that said I would rest assured that you would handle the matter.
In this way, under Emperor Yang's urging, Kunpeng Company hurriedly completed the design of their foreign trade fighter jet and produced the first prototype in the shortest time.
"Your Excellency, this is a new fighter jet equipped for the German army in the Caribbean. It uses a three-layer wing and a nine-cylinder 120 horsepower engine. The fastest speed can reach 190 kilometers. It has more power than any current fighter jet.
It has high maneuverability, a maximum range of up to 400 kilometers, and is equipped with two air-cooled heavy machine guns. Because it uses the latest shooting coordinator, it can shoot directly ahead through the propeller without worrying about damaging the propeller." Nanyuan Airport,
The manager of Kunpeng Company pointed to a three-winged fighter jet that was specially painted red according to His Majesty the Emperor's request and said to Haijing.
Because Emperor Yang has relatively clear requirements for appearance, that is, the machine guns are different. This aircraft is equipped with two 12.7 mm large-caliber machine guns. This also makes this Chinese version of the Fokker fighter better in terms of engine power and aviation materials.
The advantage of advanced nature is gone, but this also makes the firepower of this fighter jet extremely brutal compared to the fighter jets at this time.
You must know that at this time, in addition to the main structure of European aircraft using aluminum alloy produced in China, most of the materials were wood, canvas, plywood. In front of the 12.7mm bullet, these things were no different from paper, and this kind of machine gun
In comparison, the modified versions of light machine guns currently used on European aircraft are completely like children's toys. They are not at the same level in terms of range, rate of fire or power.
Looking at Haijing's surprised eyes, Yuan Shikai motioned for him to perform a show. A pilot immediately climbed onto the plane, then started the propeller and soared into the sky. It must be said that the maneuverability of this kind of aircraft is indeed superior. In this case, the Kunpeng Company boss
In the hands of a qualified test pilot, it was like a giant red dragonfly flying in the sky, performing difficult maneuvers one after another as if performing stunts, and the audience burst into applause.
Nanyuan Airport is not a hidden place. It is the most important aviation base in Beijing. Not only His Majesty the Emperor's airship fleet is here, but also Panda Airlines' civil aviation airships and postal aircraft are all here. This high-profile flight performance immediately attracted people's attention.
There were a large number of onlookers, and even many foreigners in the city came to watch after hearing the news. Among them were diplomats and spies from Britain, France and Russia. Looking at the growing crowd around him, Haijing couldn't help but smile bitterly.
For a moment.
He knew that Yang Feng could not only do business in Germany. This profiteer arranged the test flight performance at Nanyuan Airport to advertise his fighter jets. It is conceivable that once Germany purchases this thing from China, Britain, France and Russia will
It is absolutely impossible not to buy it. Based on the paper data of this fighter, it is completely the overlord of the sky. Judging from the current performance, these data are indeed without any water. In this way, even if they pay a high price, Britain, France and Russia must get this kind of fighter.
Airplane, Yang Feng can take advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune.
However, in this case, this business may be ruined. Having been the minister to China for so many years, Haijing is very familiar with the style of Yang Feng and Yuan Shikai, a pair of collusive monarchs and ministers. It is difficult to say that they are not planning to trick anyone this time.
It is simply a fantasy, but even if they cheat people, they will definitely give Germany enough compensation in the end. Haijing still knows this well. It is completely in China's interest for Germany to kill everyone in Europe.
"Your Excellency, Minister, you see, there is going to be a shooting show next." Yuan Shikai said with a smile on the side, while several ground staff on the ground were releasing balloons as targets.
Haijing smiled stiffly, "Do you still need to watch this? You are using it for advertising, so naturally you won't let the performance be ruined."
He knew it well, so he didn't show any surprise at how the plane easily smashed one balloon after another with its nose shot. However, it was different for the Allied diplomats and spies who were watching the fun. They were very
I knew what this meant, especially when I looked at Haijing next to Yuan Shikai, their expressions became even more ugly.
Now the sky on the Western Front is protected by the French fighter jets shooting from the propellers. Once the Germans purchase this new type of fighter jet from China, then the sky on the Western Front will belong to the Germans, and then the German army will definitely copy it.
The tactics on the Eastern Front were to use that terrifying new type of burning dan to burn continuously until all the defense lines of the British and French allied forces were burned to ashes. Thinking of such terrible consequences, these guys hurried back in a cold sweat.
Run, they must find ways to stop this deal, no matter what the cost, otherwise the millions of coalition troops on the Western Front will be struggling in the fire of hell like the Russians.
Looking at the cars leaving in a hurry, Waiter Yuan had a bright smile on his face. r1152
