Chapter 145: Emperor Chongzhen is seasick and the Mediterranean Sea is at war again
Emperor Chongzhen seems to be very interested in the clouds in front of him, and it is still a novelty to be able to see the clouds in the sky now, this time you can take a good look at the clouds!
But Zhang Zhimu knew that this cloud was not a good thing for the plane, so he pulled Emperor Chongzhen and said, "Your Majesty, let's go back to our seats and watch the clouds!" ”
Emperor Chongzhen really wanted to see the clouds in the cockpit of the plane, because the front of the plane was facing the clouds, but Zhang Zhimu pulled his hand very hard. Although he was very unwilling, Emperor Chongzhen had no choice but to follow Zhang Zhimu back to his seat. Cabin crew, everyone has been asked to fasten their seatbelts.
As soon as the clouds could be seen floating by outside the window, the plane began to tremble.
The plane floated up and down with the air currents like a leaf, and everyone finally appreciated the power of the weather. In the beginning, everyone on the plane struggled to control themselves. But soon they all started to get dizzy.
No one had the heart to look at the thick clouds outside the window, and they didn't know how long it would take for the plane to finally break through the clouds and descend below them. According to the navigation signal, the plane circled to find the Lanzhou airport. The flight attendant informed everyone that Lanzhou Airport had arrived and the plane was ready to land. At this time, Emperor Chongzhen was the first to be uncontrollable, and vomited "wow", but fortunately there was a vomit bag, not on the carpet of the plane.
Emperor Chongzhen took the lead, and Zhang Zhimu and others also vomited. It's very contagious.
Yang Yulin beside him patted Zhang Zhimu on the back for a while, and Zhang Zhimu felt much better.
The pilot's skills were very good, Zhang Zhimu just felt that the contact between the wheels of the plane and the ground was very stable, and then the rear wheels of the plane also hit the ground, and after sliding for a while, the plane stopped, turned around and slid to the tarmac.
As soon as the plane door opened, fresh air blew in. Everyone was happy.
Emperor Chongzhen said: "Oops! This time, it's amazing to understand the plane! ”
Zhang Zhimu asked: "Your Majesty, do you dare to take a plane?" ”
"Huh!" Emperor Chongzhen smiled and said, "At most, let's vomit again!" However, we arrived in Lanzhou in a few hours, and if we take the train, we don't know what time to wait! This plane is really good! ”
Yang Jing, who was standing in front of him, boarded the gangway to the door of the aircraft cabin, "Your Majesty, please get off the plane!" ”
"Oops! Look, people won't let you sit! Emperor Chongzhen deliberately joked, "Let's get off the plane!" ”
The flight attendant helped Emperor Chongzhen to the door of the cabin, and Emperor Chongzhen didn't need them to help him walk down the gangway. Zhang Zhimu came to the cockpit and asked, "When you just pierce the clouds, it's dangerous, right?" ”
The driver said: "The ground reported that the clouds were very high, so I dared to go down through the clouds." But I kept looking at the altimeter, and if it was too low to penetrate the clouds, I wouldn't go down, and we still had a lot of oil left! It's easy to do through the clouds, and I've flown a few times to Lanzhou Airport. ”
"Good! You fly very well, and you have to bring out a few more good apprentices in the future. Our country is so big, it's much easier to do it with airplanes! Zhang Zhimu encouraged the pilot.
After listening to Zhang Zhimu's words, the entire crew was very moved. How did they know that this set was a pediatric thing in their previous life.
As soon as Emperor Chongzhen's feet landed, he quickly recovered. However, the acting king, the king of Zhou, and the scholar Liu Jiantai were carried into the car.
Zhang Zhimu felt strange that Yang Yulin, Li Jing, Han Yuejiao, and Wang Gonggong were all fine at all. This made Zhang Zhimu understand that now Li Jing and his paratroopers often parachute from transport planes, and it is possible that there is no airsickness. Good physical fitness, coupled with exercise, can completely defeat motion sickness.
In Lanzhou, Zhang Zhimu and the others visited the Lanzhou Yellow River Bridge here and visited the garrison here. After staying in Lanzhou for one night, when we continued to take the plane the next day, everyone was not afraid of taking a plane except for a little fear of airsickness. So there was talk and laughter on the plane. There is another thing this time, that is, Li Jing and their plane also flew with Zhang Zhimu and them.
Yang Jing and his plane took off first, and after Zhang Zhimu and their plane took off, the two planes flew together in parallel.
From the portholes of the aircraft, the two planes can be seen from each other.
Emperor Chongzhen was even happier, looked at the other plane for a while, and asked Zhang Zhimu: "Zhang Dongjia, how are our bombers now?" ”
"The bomber test flight work has been completed, and I have asked Li Yunhe to start production!" Zhang Zhimu pointed to the planes outside the window and said, "In the future, if we produce a certain number of bombers, we will be able to fly in formation in the air." If there were hundreds of bombers sent out together, we would be able to blow them up in a small country! ”
"Great! But there is less to do with our infantry! Emperor Chongzhen said.
"Infantry and infantry missions!" Zhang Zhimu said, "Li Yunhe, they didn't work the bombers. Various types and sizes of **, engaged in a lot! The horizontal bombing sighting equipment is all newly developed! ”
At this time, Li Jing interjected, "Our tactical drill of air-ground cooperation is about to begin!" It's just that they still have too few bombers! The General Staff and Liu Chenghuang and their Air Force Staff can only talk on paper now, but a lot of various plans have also been studied! However, I am more interested in the kind of gunboat aircraft converted with transport planes that Mr. Zhang said. It was the enemy's nightmare to set up ** guns and heavy machine guns on transport planes and strafe and bombard the enemy at low altitudes. Now no enemy is capable of dealing with our air strikes. ”
"How to use these fighters, bombers, and gunboats in the future, and how to use them together, are all things that need to be carefully studied." Zhang Zhimu said.
"It's a pity that when we dealt with the Mongols, we had such weapons. Why did we build so many Great Walls? Emperor Chongzhen said with emotion.
"Huh!" Li Jing smiled and said, "When Zhou Yuji dealt with the Mongols, he used a delta wing. That battle is also a classic. Our military academy is used as a teaching case. ”
"General Zhou Yuji came to your kiln gang, but he played his role." Emperor Chongzhen said, "I heard that the railway from naturalization to Beihai was built by him with his officers and soldiers, and there are not many prisoners assigned to them!" ”
"The railway has been repaired, and it will have too much effect on the stability of the entire north!" Zhang Zhimu said, "This year, they have another big project on their side, which is to start building a canal from Beihai to Heilongjiang." The waterway from Beihai (Lake Baikal) to Heilongjiang was opened. The North Sea, the North Sea (Lake Baikal) and the sea are open waterways! The entire North Sea (Baikal) water system covers an area that is simply too large! In this way, many good things such as minerals and firewood can be transported by water. ”
"Yes! It would be even better if our Songliao Grand Canal was completed! Emperor Chongzhen said.
"The Songliao Grand Canal will be open to water next year, and the auxiliary facilities will need to be built for a few years. If there is no problem, the first phase of the project will be able to pass 1,000-ton cargo ships. In that way, Liaodong and the entire Nuergan region are connected, and the strategic significance is very great. Zhang Zhimu said.
"There are all barbaric places over there in Nuergan, and those savages are difficult to educate, and it is also very difficult to govern!" Emperor Chongzhen said.
"Hmmm! We sent quite a few officials over. General Zhou Yuji also recruited a lot of soldiers among the ethnic minorities over there. I think that after a period of training, these soldiers have become more literate and more identified with us. A soldier who can write and calculate, and when he returns to that side after being discharged from the army, he is also a very good cadre. They do their jobs better than the people we send! Zhang Zhimu said.
"I really admire you for having come up with the idea of getting the soldiers to learn the culture. When a soldier is discharged from the army, he can become a cadre when he goes to the locality. Raising soldiers is not only not a burden, but also a training cadre, which is simply like a myth! ”
The tension and novelty of flying faded, and there was time to talk about things. In fact, although these people are usually in the kiln, there are not many opportunities to get together, and it is rare to have a good talk.
However, just as the plane flew over Qilian Mountain, the cockpit door of the plane opened, and the navigator handed over a telegram. Li Jing took the telegram and glanced at it, handed it to Zhang Zhimu and said, "Mu Yi, they are fighting again on the other side of the Mediterranean!" ”
Everyone stopped talking, looking at Zhang Zhimu, who was reading the telegram.
After reading the telegram, Zhang Zhimu snorted with his nose, "Hmph! Franz (Spaniard) is looking for a fight! ”
As he spoke, he handed the telegram to Emperor Chongzhen.
After reading the telegram, Emperor Chongzhen said, "As long as we don't suffer!" The Francos (Spaniards) have always been our fierce rivals. Our navy defeated them and began to bombard their ports again, or we took advantage! I just don't know if I can convince them! ”
"It's okay! They can't accept it! Zhang Zhimu also said to Emperor Chongzhen, "We can destroy all their coastal ports with our naval forces now, and at the same time blockade their ports." There are no ships in those countries, no spices for their survival, and many of the things they need. If they can't sell what they produce, they will be trapped to death! ”
"If only little Frangi (the Spaniards) could be reconciled to us, as the French did, and we would have a place with them!" Emperor Chongzhen learned about the agreement signed by Mu Yi and France, and happily didn't sleep all night. He never imagined that we would be able to get a place in Xiyi's house.
Mu Yi and them, who were far away in the Mediterranean, took turns to let the ships dock at the port of Marseille to replenish the ships, and also let the crew go ashore to take a good bath and rest. At the same time, he seized the time to build a simple military camp on the seaside of the concession. Officers and men of a squadron of marines were to stay here to assist the remaining officers in taking over the concession.
Unable to stop for too long, the fleet soon left the port of Marseille and headed southwest. Their target was the port of Barcelona in Francois (Spain).
On the deck of the Taishan, Mu Yi asked Zheng Zhilong, "Old Zheng, do you think that the Count of Castile that we let go of can bring the news to their king?" ”
"It should be!" Zheng Zhilong said, "I can see that the Count of Castile does not want to die yet. He had to give an account to King Frangi for the annihilation of the entire fleet of Francos in the Mediterranean. And to shirk this responsibility! ”
"No matter how you say it, hundreds of warships are gone, he is the commander-in-chief, how can he shirk his responsibility!" Mu Yi asked puzzled.
"I've thought about it for him, and I've just said that the responsibility is that we are too strong!" Zheng Zhilong said.
"That's true, right?" Mu Yi said.
"And, if nothing else, he will persuade King Frangi to make us some compensation to prevent us from attacking their targets on shore!" Zheng Zhilong analyzed.
"Hmm!" Mu Yi nodded and said, "With such a large fleet plus the combined French and Italian fleets all wiped out, the blow to them is really too great. I'm afraid the King of France is going to pee his pants when he hears the news! ”
"Haha!" Mu Yi and Zheng Zhilong laughed.
It's so beautiful in France that they can both feel it when they come to the telegraph from home, and the family is very satisfied. They are looking forward to doing a little more beautiful work in Francois (Spain).
Zheng Zhilong was right, he said no accident, and the Francois (Spain) would compensate them. But this time I really encountered an accident.
