"Yunhua, how long does it take to assemble these aircraft?"
"We have already tested it in the United States, and it can be assembled and debugged in a day or two." Bayuzao said with full confidence.
After Zhang Tinglan heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up and he said with a smile: "Well, I will give you five days to rest first and then assemble the plane. I will transfer a few pilots from the aviation school. After five days
, preparing an air show in Fengtian can also be regarded as celebrating the official establishment of the Fengtian Air Force!"
"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"
In addition to bringing back more than 30 people from the aircraft design and manufacturing team, Bayama and the others also purchased a large number of machines and moved them off the freighters one after another.
"Mr. Zhuoyan, I heard that Northeast China already has a number of factories. I don't know if it is true or not. If there are supporting factories, it will be much easier to produce aircraft."
"Well, steel plants, metallurgical plants, machine manufacturing plants, arsenals, locomotive factories, etc., have all taken prototypes, and some can already produce some products in small batches. Not long ago, Jilin Arsenal successfully copied seven
The 16mm mountain gun is now working towards a larger caliber!"
Hearing this, Wang Zhu and others also beamed with joy. Although they are experts in aircraft design, it is difficult to make a meal without rice, and manufacturing aircraft also requires a large number of factories. Just like in the United States, they can easily purchase various
However, when you get to China, everything becomes troublesome. You have to find a way to produce everything yourself, and you even have to order directly from overseas. You may not be able to buy it. Even if you are willing to sell it to you, you have to consider whether the price is affordable.
It can be said that on the way back, Wang Zhu and others were ready to start from scratch, but now they were very excited when they heard that Fengjun actually had a certain industrial foundation.
"Mr. Zhuoyan, you are the only one who has such a big hand and built so many factories at once. The Manchu Qing Dynasty had been struggling with foreign affairs for decades and could only build a handful of factories."
"That's why the Qing Dynasty collapsed. The development of industry was a race of speed. It was already lagging behind. If we don't rush forward desperately, we will only be beaten passively, or even the country will be destroyed."
They also believed Zhang Tinglan's words. After only one day's rest in Huludao, Bayuzao and the others returned to Fengtian with Zhang Tinglan with the parts of ten aircraft.
After arriving in Fengtian, Li Ruyan, Qin Guoyong, Pan Shizhong, Bao Bingchen, Zhu Zhuowen and other teachers from Nanyuan Aviation School all rushed over. These people are also professionals who studied in Europe and the United States in their early years, and also have solid academic foundation. And Bayusao,
When Wang Zhu and others met, they immediately had endless topics to talk about.
Bayuzao and the others mentioned Zhang Tinglan's suggestion again. They should use them as a team to set up four aircraft design and manufacturing factories, and they should also be named after the main designers. After hearing this idea, everyone suddenly became excited.
But a very attractive suggestion.
Any designer, in addition to wanting his aircraft to conquer the blue sky, probably also has the idea of making his name a mark of history. If the factory is named after him, that would be the highest honor. They were all very excited.
Li Ruyan thought more comprehensively. Although he knew that this idea was good, there were still some difficulties in implementing it, so he said to Zhang Tinglan: "I would like to say, your proposal is very good, but now the three northeastern provinces have not yet completed the aircraft manufacturing capacity.
If we can't build an aircraft, splitting it into four factories so early will only distract our efforts. The top priority should be to master the aircraft manufacturing process, create things first, and then incorporate different features."
Zhang Tinglan smiled and nodded: "That's true. Breaking through the technical obstacles as a whole is the first priority. Do you have any ideas?"
"Mr. Zhuoyan, the current aircraft are mainly wooden fuselages, and the manufacturing is not complicated. Although the idea of using aluminum alloy as aircraft manufacturing materials has emerged, it is still far from mature. Our biggest obstacle is the engine. As long as it is solved
As for the engine problem, there is no difficulty in manufacturing an airplane." Bayuzao said at the side.
"Yes, Yunhua is right." Wang Zhu continued: "Although the United States was the first to develop aircraft, due to patent issues, domestic lawsuits are ongoing, which has delayed the development of aircraft. American aircraft have lagged behind.
There is a gap in Europe, especially in aviation engines. We purchased a batch of engines in the United States, but their performance is only passable, and they cannot reach the advanced level at all."
Wang Xiaofeng, who had been silent for a long time, also said: "If you want to produce engines, it is best for the three European powers, England, Germany and France to get the technology. Even if we don't have the technology, we can find a way to imitate it if there is a finished product in front of us. But now in Europe
There is a war going on, and it is too difficult to obtain technology."
Zhang Tinglan smiled slightly when he heard this: "I can't get European technology, but I have finished French engines."
"Mr. Zhuoyan, how did you get it?" Bayuzao's eyes suddenly lit up and he asked hurriedly.
"Not long ago, the Russians took advantage of their air superiority and frequently harassed the border. We shot down six aircraft, three of which were basically intact and still had their engines. In addition, we seized four bombers from the Russians and have already shipped them.
Aviation school.”
Li Ruyan smiled and nodded: "Yes, Russian fighter jets are all imported from France, and the engines are naturally original French products. Their performance is quite advanced and they are in a leading position in the world. We are stepping up research these days and want to explore France.
Human manufacturing technology, now that you have joined us, we may be able to achieve a breakthrough soon."
As soon as they heard the news, Bayuzao, Wang Zhu and others were immediately full of energy and wanted to take a tour immediately. However, Zhang Tinglan stopped them. The most important task at the moment was to assemble the aircraft as soon as possible, complete the debugging, and then attend the meeting.
The air show shows the strength of the Fengtian Air Force to the outside world.
Zhang Tinglan is so eager to show off his air power, but he actually has his own plans. The competition in the oil industry has reached the final moment. Now Fengtian has blocked the supply of raw materials, and the Americans have stepped up their pressure. As long as they work harder, they can squeeze out the oil.
The meat reaches your mouth.
At this time, the most important thing to pay attention to is that the Japanese are jumping over the wall. If you want to prevent the vicious dogs from moving around, the most important way is to raise the dog-beating stick high to let them know they are afraid. Now it is official to hold a flight show
The establishment of the Fengtian Air Force was announced for this purpose.
After a simple communication, they all understood the importance of this flight performance, so they all issued military orders. Li Ruyan and others fully cooperated and selected a group of elites from among the students in the aviation school to immediately become familiar with the aircraft.
.
Zhang Tinglan had almost arranged everything, and went to the Marshal's Mansion to meet Zhang Zuolin. When Lao Zhang saw Zhang Tinglan coming, he smiled and said: "I have something to talk to you about. Come and sit down."
"
It is now the twelfth lunar month of winter, and the temperature is very low. There are several huge braziers in the middle of the Tiger Hall. The red charcoal is emitting heat, which makes people feel comfortable. On top of the braziers, a simple shelf is set up, and grilling is taking place on them.
A few sweet potatoes, Lao Zhang would turn them over from time to time.
Zhang Xueliang was also sitting aside, with a proud smile on his face: "I'm sorry, I'm a father now, you should hurry up!"
"Well, that little girl is pretty and cries loudly. She looks exactly like Han Qing when she was a child. The first is a girl and the next is a boy. I want to have a grandson too!"
Zhang Tinglan thought to herself that no wonder the two men could sit together happily. They had a common topic and chatted about the next generation. So she also said with a smile: "We have agreed, this is my goddaughter, I will talk about it later."
Just buy a gift, and when it’s daytime, I’ll make a long-life lock weighing one pound.”
"Can such a heavy gold lock be hung on the neck?"
"It's okay, don't hang it up, just put it in the box. The eldest daughter of the handsome family is also a rich lady. If there isn't enough to keep it at the bottom of the box, wouldn't it be a joke?"
Zhang Tinglan's words made Lao Zhang laugh. After laughing, Lao Zhang said with a serious face: "I'd like to say that not long ago, someone from the Democratic Party in northern Shaanxi contacted me and I also picked up a batch of tattered guns and sold them.
If we give it to them, I'm afraid northern Shaanxi will soon be in chaos. In addition, if there is such a big problem in Russia, there will definitely be an influx of refugees to the three northeastern provinces. We should also come up with a way to deal with it. There are so many things to deal with.
It’s really troublesome to get up!”
"Commander, I have nothing to worry about. Northern Shaanxi is a good opportunity. If you can intervene, intervene. The real focus must be on Russia. The Japanese have already said that the Allies will prepare to jointly intervene in the Russian revolution.
.Obviously, if you want to interfere in the Russian Far East, the three eastern provinces are the best springboard. They can be said to be the front line against the majority party. We must take the initiative, so that the big powers will have to revolve around us, otherwise they will use various means to
This method is used to harm the interests of the three northeastern provinces and satisfy their needs to suppress the majority party."
Lao Zhang lowered his head and thought for a while, and then said: "I would like to say that it depends on your ability to deal with the big powers. I will leave all matters in the direction of Russia to you."
"Don't worry, Commander, I've taken care of the oil pressing plant, got this source of wealth, and then I'll go north immediately!"
"I have to say, if we fight with the Russians again, I will go there and show off my skills." Zhang Xueliang said, patting his chest.
"I'm afraid, Han Qing, you are indeed indispensable. Now Bayuzao and the others have brought back ten aircraft and are being assembled. I am planning to hold a flight show in a few days. It will also announce the official establishment of our air force. Han Qing, you are not
Have you always wanted to manage the Air Force? Now the opportunity is right in front of you."
When Zhang Xueliang heard this, he immediately became energetic and looked eager to give it a try. Lao Zhang rubbed his hands, toyed with the sweet potatoes, and said with a smile: "I'd like to say, at this time, if we are in such a hurry to set up the air force, I'm afraid that
Is there another purpose?" (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
