Chapter 50 HE-100 and JU-89

The door opened again, a fragrant breeze wafted by, and Amy carried Ada into the study.

"Herman, what's wrong? What's wrong with your complexion? Amy was taken aback at Goering's pale face and asked with concern.

Seeing Ida in Amy's arms, Goering's face softened a lot, and he stretched out his hands to Amy.

Amy handed Ida into Goering's hand, and then asked, "Did you quarrel with Heinz, I see that his face is also very bad, and he almost fell down the stairs when he went downstairs." ”

Goering sat on the chair and absentmindedly teased Ida in his arms, and after a while, he reacted, looked up and asked, "He's gone?" ”

Amy nodded and said, "He's gone." His face was worse than yours, and he ignored me when I greeted him. Is he sick? ”

Goering replied, "My dear, you are a professional actor, do you think my usual clothes are fashionable enough?" Is there any aristocracy? ”

Amy shook her head without thinking, "No. But it's mighty. ”

"Mighty? Why do you use that word to describe me? Goering asked, confused.

"You're really mighty when you're in a military uniform." Amy said seriously.

Goering, realizing that his wife's thoughts were really not on the same frequency, reminded him: "I mean the outfit other than the military uniform, such as the silk robe I wore when I was at home, and the Robin Hood suit I wore when I went out hunting. ”

Goering clearly saw that Amy's gaze on him suddenly became erratic, and he forced, "Tell me the truth." ”

"Those costumes are very distinctive, it's just that I think they should be on stage, and that's the outfit that belongs to our actors." Seeing Goering's serious face, Amy had no choice but to tell the truth, and after speaking, she secretly checked Goering's face.

Goering was not angry, but discouraged. Handing Ida in his arms into Amy's hands, Goering asked thoughtlessly, "Heinz is gone?" ”

Amy was stunned for a moment, then nodded and replied, "Let's go." ”

Goering scratched his head in anguish and held out his right hand to Amy tremblingly: "You ・・・・・・ why didn't you stop him?" ”

"Ahh Amy's mouth opened in surprise.

"You take Ada to play first." Seeing Amy's stunned look, Goering's heart became even more dull, and he waved his hand and said.

Amy obediently closed the door and left Goering alone. As soon as Goering looked up, he saw the scarlet blood marks on the opposite wall, and after staring at the shocking blood marks for a while, Goering let out a long yawn. After yawning, a very decadent expression appeared on Goering's face.

With this expression, Goering took out a long aluminum box from the rightmost drawer of his desk, took out a thick rubber band from it and tied it to his left arm, and thick cyan veins immediately appeared on Goering's arm.

Goering took out a syringe and vial from the box, and sucked the morphine from the vial into the syringe. The tip of the needle touched the blood vessel, but it did not penetrate for a long time.

After staring at his arm for a few minutes, Goering lifted the syringe, then put it on his arm, and after repeating this seven or eight times, he slammed it on the table with a thud, got up and walked out of the study.

Goering walked to the third floor of the villa, took out his key and opened the door to the easternmost room, and dodged in, leaning his back against the door.

On the dressing table opposite the door, there was a huge wedding photo, and Goering looked at the beautiful ex-wife in the photograph and said dejectedly: "Karin, I'm sorry, I messed things up." ”

・・・・・・

On the train back to Kiel, Chen Dao wrote in the bandit's diary: "I curse you, Heinz, that you should make me say such sensational things; Thank you, Heinz, if it weren't for you, I would have smashed my brother-in-law's head into the flowers. But your influence on me is only this once, and I won't take it as an example.

・・・・・・

At the end of January, the weather was still cold, but the snow was not falling as often.

Just after Christmas, the Naval Aviation Fundraising Committee pursued the money according to the name and amount on the fundraising book, and the collection operation went very smoothly, almost the front foot of the demand letter of the HNA was delivered, and the back foot of the check of the industrial giants was sent to the fundraising committee.

The fundraising campaign was in full swing, and the bidding for HNA aircraft was not far behind. On January 25, at the bidding meeting for naval aviation, representatives of all German aircraft manufacturing companies, including Juncker, Messerschmidt, Focke-Wolff, Aradao, and Dornier, gathered together to submit their respective aircraft models and performance introductions to HNA.

After the bidding meeting, Chen Dao, Garland and others made a comparison, focusing on the proposals submitted by Juncker, Messerschmidt, Focke-Wolff and Henkel.

Focke-Wolff's competition is a land-based fighter, and they submitted an FW190 fighter.

Juncker's high-profile model is a long-range reconnaissance aircraft, and the one they submitted is a Ju-89 bomber.

Heinkel was the most appetizing of all the companies, and they submitted He-100 fighter jets and He-177 bombers to buy the production rights for the two models in the HNA tender.

Chen Daoyang raised the document of the He-177 bomber in his hand and said: "I think the Heinkel 177 bomber can be eliminated, this is the model that the Air Force intends to procure, and the performance introduction says that this bomber is actually developing the function of dive bombing, I really can't figure it out, why should this large bomber develop this function?" Are the people in the Air Force Ordnance Bureau crazy. ”

"I've heard that it was General Udet who made the suggestion," Garland said. ”

"Udet? The swooping maniac? I see, if only he had, I would understand. The bombers we procure are only used as long-range reconnaissance planes and do not need the function of dive bombing, and if we and the Air Force both purchase this kind of aircraft, in the event of a shortage of production in the future, they will definitely give priority to ensuring the Air Force, and we can only sit back and wait. Because the war has begun, one of the most important indicators in this tender is that it can be quickly put into production and form combat effectiveness, so I think this model can be eliminated. Chen Dao said.

"When it was first produced, the production was definitely low, and we didn't need the dive bombing function, which the Air Force needed if it needed it, which is very contradictory, so I also think it should be eliminated." Garland said.

The two agreed on the same opinion, Leibniz nodded in agreement, and then held up a document and said: "This is the FW-190 fighter, his performance is very good, but this model is also the model that the Air Force is scheduled to produce, I am afraid that it will also cause conflicts between us and the Air Force because of the distribution of production capacity, what do you think?" ”

"Let's get rid of it, we have a lot to do now, but we don't include competing with the Air Force for planes." Chen Dao said.

"All that is left are He-100 fighters and Ju-89 bombers, as well as Messerschmidt fighters." Garland asked.

"Messerschmidt's aircraft, we'll talk about it later." Chen Dao said: "You make a memo for the HE-100 fighter, just say that there are already 12 official production models of this aircraft, and as long as we decide to purchase it, the Heinkel company will immediately start mass production, which meets our first requirement." Moreover, this aircraft has an additional range of 109 km than the Me-250, which is recommended for the Ordnance Bureau to pay attention to. As for the Ju-89 bomber, you wrote that this type of aircraft is the only one left, and a second prototype has already been produced, and it is recommended to purchase it. Chen Dao said.

Garland and Leibniz were quick to make notes on the performance presentations of both aircraft.

Leibniz asked: "I heard that the HE-100 fighter is the aircraft model that lost to the ME-109 fighter in the competition of the Air Force, will there be any fatal shortcomings?" ”

"They lost the bid mainly because of politics, not performance." Chen Dao explained.

Chen Dao picked up the Messerschmidt company's performance sheet and said: "Dr. Messerschmitt is really anxious to put a jet fighter in its infancy to bid, what should we do?" This aircraft will certainly not be able to form combat effectiveness in the short term, but I am personally optimistic about his prospects. ”

"I've heard that the Air Force is interested in jet fighters and has invested in the development of this aircraft." Leibniz said.

"Adolf, you consult with the Air Force Technical Bureau, ask them if they have invested in this aircraft, if they have invested in the development of this fighter, we will give up, if we need this aircraft in the future, we can directly call them, so that I can save a sum of money for HNA."
