Faced with the Ministry of War and the Army, Xiang Xiaoqiang did not adopt the kind of compromise that could easily displease both sides, but adopted a very clever method.
Under the auspices of Xiang Xiaoqiang, after tripartite negotiation, 650 of the 1,000 pilots were assigned to the Army Department and 350 to the Army Aviation.
Although the aviation school of the Ministry of the Army won the lion's share, there are conditions, that is, the best pilots cannot be given to you, but to the Army. These 1,000 pilots will have to go through another selection to select the more outstanding 350 pilots.
The remaining 650 relatively ordinary people will be reserved for the Army Aviation School.
At first, Xiang Xiaoqiang always advocated that the best pilots should enter the aviation school. But now that the allocation power has returned to his own hands, and he must use this to win over the Army, he must let the Army get something real.
For this reason, after discussing with Li Guoliang, Xiang Xiaoqiang came up with a way to get the best of both worlds.
650 relatively mediocre pilots entered the aviation school as instructors, as junior or intermediate flight instructors. 350 of the best pilots entered the Army Airlines. Although they were in the front-line troops, they also had to be instructors, that is, senior instructors. The Army Airlines established its own
Small training institutions are located in each flying force.
The role of a junior or intermediate flight instructor is to enable students who do not know how to fly a plane to learn basic air combat techniques, fly for the specified number of hours, and meet the standards of Army aviation pilots. This kind of task is in the aviation school.
Upon completion, students will be awarded a military rank after graduation and become qualified army aviation pilots, entering the army as novices. The role of the senior flight instructor is to further train the pilots in the combat force, allowing them to improve their skills and transform from novices to veterans.
.
Both sides are quite satisfied with this plan. Both sides get what they need, and both think they have not suffered a loss, and even think they have gained a lot of advantages. The War Department originally planned to give away all without leaving any part, and did not expect to get a share at all.
But now they have got the lion's share. The Army is also very happy. Although the quantity allocated is relatively small, they are all the best. Especially the top brass of the Army also think that they could not get the share. Mr. Shen Ge has already gone to the palace to ask for it from His Majesty.
However, Xiang Xiaoqiang responded quickly and immediately ran into the palace, fought face to face with Mr. Shen Ge, and finally grabbed hundreds of the best ones.
The next night, Xiang Xiaoqiang became a guest at Marshal Zhang Zhaoxian's home.

In the period from the signing of the treaty between the two countries to now, the Indian Ocean route across Europe and Asia has been extremely busy. Countless freighters from the Ming Dynasty and Germany carried various grains, meat, ores, machine tools, production lines, and parts.
Chemical raw materials, expert technicians... are constantly shuttling back and forth on the route. Since modern history, the largest resource integration between the East and the West has begun.
Daming's Lightning 1, 2, and 3 tank blueprints have also been secretly sent to Germany. At the same time, the Gonggong battlecruiser is already on its way to Germany. After the other 15,000 German Wehrmacht officers and soldiers arrive in Daming, Daming
The two heavy cruisers promised to Germany will also set sail and leave the port for Germany.
During this period, a large number of new military and heavy industry new technologies were absorbed by the Ming Dynasty. Although big things such as new aircraft have not seen much effect, some small things, such as the mg34 machine gun, have been offline for a long time. It turns out that the Ming Dynasty
The Lianfenghao company is already copying this classic German machine gun. It just doesn’t have the original drawings and just draws and produces them based on the real thing. Now even the original drawings are brought from Germany and are produced directly on the Lianfenghao production line.
, within a week, boxes after boxes of brand-new and shiny genuine mg34 have been distributed to the soldiers of the People's Guard.
It turns out that the machine gunners of the People's Guard train with the "Counterfeit Woodpecker" every day, and they are as familiar with it as their own children. Now the genuine "Woodpecker" has been installed in the People's Guard and has begun to be installed in the Ming Dynasty Army. It turns out that those in the Army are used to fighting Mark
Qin's machine gunners were selected as a group of outstanding ones and sent to the People's Guard barracks to be "trained" by the People's Guard machine gunners, teaching them how to use this perverted and delicate new machine gun.
After the second airdrop on May 15, Xiang Xiaoqiang organized two night airdrops on the 17th and 19th. Originally, the airdrop received on the 15th did not need to be airdropped again within three to five days. However, in order to prevent the Qing army from
If you feel the pattern, the airdrops must not be regular. There may be three or four airdrops a week, and then there may be no airdrops for a week or two. This is the correct method.

The Taihang Mountain Column has been under continuous encirclement and suppression by the Qing army since the day the uprising went up the mountain. However, the vast Taihang Mountains stretch for more than 100,000 square kilometers, and the east side is mainly dominated by high mountains and lofty mountains. The terrain is complex. If thousands of people burrow into it, even if the Qing army
Mobilizing hundreds of thousands of people was still trying to find a needle in a haystack. The eastern side of the Taihang Mountains had abundant rainfall and lush vegetation, which also made the Qing army's aerial search completely ineffective.
Although up to now, the Taihang Mountain Column has only been operating within a small area of several hundred square kilometers west of Baoding, from Langya Mountain to the north, and to Lianhua Mountain in the south. However, it was within this small area of several hundred square kilometers that the Qing army was mobilized to encircle and suppress
More than a dozen divisions were just clumsily moving around without touching a single hair. Instead, they focused all their energy on looting money and harming the local people. Thanks to the Qing Dynasty's official army, in more than ten days, another one was recovered.
More than a thousand people entered the mountains from surrounding villages and defected to the Taihang Mountain column.
In the area where the Taihang Mountain Column operates, there were originally six groups of bandits, large and small, but now they have annexed four groups, and all of them have taken the initiative to defect, with almost a thousand people. The other two groups are now in "active contact"
.Now the number of the Taihang Mountain Column has reached eight to nine thousand. With more than 2,000 local villagers and bandits joining in, the Taihang Mountain Column has become more familiar with this area and has a great time dealing with the Qing army in the mountains.
The villages and towns in the mountains in this area were all occupied by them. Sometimes the Qing army had just left, and the Taihang Mountain Column moved in. Or the Qing army was coming to live the next day, and the Taihang Mountain Column moved in the night before.
Just left.
The Taihang Mountain Column is currently just a group of workers. It suddenly has a strong force and some bandit habits. However, compared with the officers and soldiers of the Qing Dynasty, it can be regarded as a model unit. Originally, there were people from the Tiandihui as the backbone, and later they
With the Ming army officers airdropped, this team is well restrained. At least they have their own supplies airdropped, but they just live in the homes of ordinary people and do not need to eat their food. Unlike the Qing army, which opened their mouths to the villagers
He scolds, beats him when he raises his hand, even if he beats her to death, he molests a young woman when he sees her. Not only does he eat and live for free, he kills chickens and sheep, but he also collects money from the villagers in various ways...
The officers of the Ming army who joined by airdrop all knew that life would be better after they had absolute control over this team. Then they would not have to think about finding the next airdrop venue all day long. By then, the Ming Dynasty would have
With the funds dropped from the air, the Taihang Mountain Column can directly buy food and supplies in various counties, towns, and villages. At that time, a freer and broader world will be opened to them, and the situation will be better.
