Liu Hai returned to the Qing Dynasty plane to understand the current situation, and after thinking about it, in order to defeat the Qing Dynasty more quickly and reduce the country's consumption, he decided to play all his cards this time.
Therefore, Liu Hai sent a telegram to Liu Zhi that night, asking him to build an emergency airport in Xuzhou, and the airport must be completed within 7 days. After 7 days, the Air Force will send aircraft to support him.
Combat.
After Liu Hai sent the telegram, he hurriedly left Nanjing by car and arrived at the military base outside Nanjing.
The commander of the Air Force, Liu Xiao, immediately ran out of the command room after receiving Liu Hai's arrival.
By the time Liu Xiao found Liu Hai, Liu Hai had already come out of the hangar.
Liu Hai saw someone running from a distance, Liu Xiao stood there waiting for Liu Hai to come over, and then without waiting for the other party to salute, Liu Hai stepped forward, patted Liu Xiao's arm and said, "I will do the things I promised you.
arrive."
Liu Xiao was immediately overjoyed when he heard this. Liu Hai had promised him before the war that as long as the Hubei army's offensive was realized, he would double his air force. Now that Liu Hai is here, it seems that he has sent planes to him.
"Commander, what kind of plane will be added this time?"
[Get cash red envelopes] You can get cash by reading books! Follow WeChat and official account [], cash/point coins are waiting for you!
Liu Hai had a smile on his face, "Follow me and go in to take a look. This time I've added a big guy for you."
After Liu Hai finished speaking, he took Liu Xiao into the hangar.
After Liu Xiao came in, he looked up and saw that the first thing parked in the empty hangar were several JH-7 fighters.
Liu Xiao was very familiar with this fighter plane. He had already used this fighter plane to inflict heavy damage on the Hubei army.
Looking behind the JH-7, I saw two big ones parked there.
As the commander of the Air Force, Liu Xiao has a very good understanding of the various aircraft types of the Air Force. As soon as he saw the appearance of these two large aircraft, he knew that they were H-6 bombers.
Now Liu Xiao's eyes have started to shine. With this fighter plane, their air force's delivery capability can be extended to thousands of kilometers.
"Commander, how many H-6s did you buy this time?"
"40." Liu Hai said proudly.
Liu Xiao took a breath of air after hearing Liu Hai's words. According to what Liu Hai meant, he could say that he had moved all the old H-6 aircraft from another dimension here.
Although this H-6 bomber is said to be a technology from the 1960s, its load capacity can reach 9 tons and its range has reached 5,700 kilometers.
With this fighter, the combat capabilities of their air force can be said to have expanded outward by 2,500 kilometers.
"How's it going? Are you satisfied?"
"I'm satisfied. The commander-in-chief really means what he says."
After listening to the other party's compliments, Liu Hai felt bright on his face. He then said proudly: "In addition to the H-6 bombers, this time I brought back 100 J-H-7 bombers for you."
When Liu Xiao heard that there were so many planes this time, he was so happy that his face turned red at first, and then he felt a little embarrassed.
"Commander, the number of planes coming in this time is twice as many as before. Can you, Commander, give me some extra manpower?"
Liu Hai nodded. There were indeed more planes added this time, but as for the combat personnel, Liu Hai was not worried that with Xiaobai's intelligence, he would soon be able to have a large number of pilots and crew members.
"Don't worry, I'll send everyone to you in three days."
After Liu Hai reassured the other party, he issued a serious order, "I have asked Liu Zhi to build a combat readiness airport in Xuzhou. I ask you that after the airport is completed in 7 days, send some J-H-7s to station in Xuzhou to support the front line.
Fight."
"Yes, I will contact Liu Zhi now. As soon as his airport is built, I will immediately send 24 JH-7s to support him."
"This is not enough. After the personnel arrive in three days, we will immediately conduct a test flight of the H-6 bombers. If the performance of the aircraft is acceptable, we will immediately put them into combat status and provide frontline fire support."
"I understand. I will make arrangements right away. I will never miss the commander-in-chief's affairs."
After giving these instructions, Liu Xiao wanted Liu Hai to sit in his headquarters.
But Liu Hai was busy with a lot of things right now and had no time to chat with him. Liu Hai rejected him very firmly and then took a carriage back to Nanjing.
After Liu Hai returned to Nanjing, he immediately released the 100 transport ships on top of the horse's head.
Then the navy was powered on and asked to send warships to protect this batch of transport ships.
However, there are almost no crew members on these transport ships now. It will be a while before Liu Hai's bionics are finished making these transport ships before they can be launched.
Although the transport ship could not be moved, the materials needed by the 200,000-strong army to move north from the sea were exhausted, so Liu Hai began to be busy transporting these materials in the next time.
Not to mention that Liu Hai was busy raising supplies and personnel here, but Liu Zhi in Xuzhou ran into some difficulties after receiving Liu Hai's order to build a combat readiness airport.
If you want him to fight on land, Liu Zhipeng won't fight a single one, because that is his strength.
But if you ask him to build the airport now, you are really making it difficult for him. This airport is not just a piece of flat land. The quality of the runway and the location of the command platform are not something that his army can handle.
Liu Zhi could only find professionals, so on the second day Liu Zhi sent a telegram to Liu Xiao of the Air Force, asking him to send him the drawings of the combat readiness airport and some special equipment.
After Liu Xiao received Liu Hai's telegram, he immediately asked his officers to quickly draw a sketch. After that, he also marked all the data needed for the JH-7 runway.
After all these preparations were made, Liu Xiao was a little embarrassed, because the distance from Nanjing to Xuzhou was nearly a thousand miles, and it would be really hard work to get there by land.
Moreover, these equipment of the Air Force are considered precision instruments. After such a bumpy road, I am afraid that not many of them will be usable by the time we arrive.
But Liu Xiao was from the Air Force after all, and he immediately had an idea. Among Liu Hai's troops, the Navy had several helicopters. Now the Navy was waiting in the military port to set off. These helicopters were parked there in vain.
Might as well borrow it and use it.
So Liu Xiao sent a telegram and requested Liu Yu from the Navy to dispatch two helicopters to him.
And Liu Yu did not shirk the other party's request for a helicopter. Two helicopters departed from Shanghai that day and landed at the Nanjing airport a few hours later.
With a helicopter, everything is easier.
Although these two helicopters are not dedicated transport aircraft, they can also pull some things.
Early in the morning of the second day, the two helicopters flew to Xuzhou with the drawings of the airport and some simple equipment, as well as two staff members sent by the Air Force.
These two planes made a joke after arriving in Xuzhou.
Because ordinary people in the Qing Dynasty had never seen a helicopter, when these two iron objects hovered over Xuzhou, they immediately attracted the attention of the people below. These people thought they were birds sent by heaven. Many
Some people even started to burn incense and pray on the roadside.
After Liu Zhi received support from the Air Force, he also began to carry out large-scale construction in Xuzhou.
Because time was tight and the task was urgent, Liu Zhi mobilized nearly 50,000 people around Xuzhou this time. As long as each person worked on the construction site for one day, he would receive 80 yuan in wages, and the construction site would also provide two meals.
This was a very generous treatment at the time, so people from all over the country flocked to this place and the construction site to start building an airstrip for Liu Zhi.
Since there was no modern machinery and equipment, the people had to carry it with their shoulders and hands. They completed the leveling of the land within a few days.
After that, construction of a simple command tower and a 2-kilometer-long runway began.
Needless to say, the control tower is natural. Except for the glass, which needs to be purchased from Hyundai, all other bricks and wood are purchased locally.
But when building the runway, there were some difficulties, because the cement in the Qing Dynasty plane was not only of poor quality, but also very expensive.
Fortunately, Liu Hai had foreseen this situation and had already stocked up on a batch of high-grade quick-drying cement.
However, it is not an easy task to transport this batch of cement to Xuzhou.
Fortunately, there are now dozens of H-6 bombers. The crews of these bombers are all made by Liu Hai using biochemical manufacturing equipment. Their technology is very good, so after a day of test flight, these bombers can barely carry out combat.
.
Liu Hai directly ordered these bombers to carry cement to Xuzhou for airdrop. This would not only allow the bombers to conduct long-distance airdrop training, but also quickly transport a large amount of cement to the front line.
With the reinforcement of Air Force bombers, everything will be easily solved. Since the distance from Nanjing to Xuzhou is relatively short, these bombers can fly 10 round-trips a day. They safely airdropped all the cement to Xuzhou within two days.
specified location.
With these high-grade cements, things became easier. Construction of the control tower and runway began at the same time.
In other words, there is strength in numbers, and with the hard work of tens of thousands of people, this airstrip was finally completed after 7 days.
On the second day of the airport construction, 24 J-H-7s were stationed here.
In the next few days, the H-6 bombers acted as transport aircraft, not only transporting a large amount of supplies, personnel and equipment to the Air Force, but also carrying a large amount of emergency items to Liu Zhi's army.
At this time, the more than 100 transport ships on the Nanjing pier finally had enough people to transport them and were able to start operations.
Now that all Liu Hai's combat preparations have been completed, he is just waiting for the army to start a war to attract the north's attention, and then the navy can cover the transport ship and attack Tianjin by surprise.
