"Even for the sake of the Ottoman Empire, which was an ally, the Empire should have sent 3 air brigades to assist in the battle. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" The Count thought for a moment and added a few more strokes.

To be honest, after Turkey joined the war, the German top brass has provided Turkey with some air fleets, although the planes are relatively old, but in this place forgotten by the giants, it is okay to make do with them, but these air fleets are not assigned to the hands of the earl.

And even if the air force is not enough now, does it have anything to do with the prince? Is there a half-penny relationship? Originally, it didn't matter at all, the Bavarian Air Force only needed to run the Eastern Front, and even if the Kaiser needed to be transferred, it could only be resolved through consultation through the German General Staff. After all, the county officials are not as good as the current management. As long as the Eastern Front is unwilling to give, the General Staff will not be able to forcibly transfer, after all, the Eastern Front is almost the final say of the prince alone.

In fact, not only this matter has nothing to do with the prince, but the formation of the air force of the high seas fleet has little to do with the prince. After all, the high seas fleet is the emperor's fleet, and the emperor's fleet needs the emperor himself to pay for the construction of ....... But the problem was that the prince was nosy and agreed to provide part of the air fleet, and in this way, when the Count of Spee asked the prince for the air team, the prince could not refuse.

It's not that you can't refuse, but you can't say it on your face! The High Seas Fleet gave hundreds of planes, and Count Spee didn't give it a word at all, right? What's more, Su Xiong was so far away from Europe, and the prince provided supplies and some accessories for Su Xiong to contact the Americans. Count Spee, on his part, has to say that anyway. And, most importantly, in the future, when it comes to raiding Ukraine and the Caucasus, the prince needs the help of the Spee fleet!

"How much do you want?" The prince's telegram was simple. It is winter, the Bavarian Corps is rearmament, and the number of aircraft on the entire Russian front is estimated to be more than 300, while the Bavarian and Bohemian Corps have more than 1,300 aircraft. On the other hand, as a major sub-fleet with more than 10 battleships, it is really impossible to say that there is no independent air force.

"I want Sky Hunters, at least 3 squadrons! Deploy two in Constantinople and one in Port Ereli! 1 squadron of seaplanes is also needed, which is responsible for the surveillance of the Black Sea Fleet. "The so-called three squadrons are just a sky-high asking price, one brigade has three squadrons, and one squadron has 18 to 24 aircraft. If it were three brigades, that would be nearly 200 aircraft, as well as nearly 5,000 ground crews and support personnel of various kinds. It's not that the prince can't give this thing, but it's a trouble to deploy.

So when it was really necessary, the earl just hoped that he would have a certain resistance to the sudden and frequent British bombers (reconnaissance planes), and the single-engine fighters were not easy to use against these big guys. At present, the best ones to use are the Sky Hunters modified with K-4 bombers, of course, the current Sky Hunters are not the first time that they are all elite units composed of elite crews. Rather, it refers to specialized interceptor units.

"Give it to him." The prince's reply was also very simple, sending a telegram directly to Prince Leopold, who was sitting in Romania. Let him first allocate 4 squadrons of Sky Hunters to the Earl, and as for the rest of the situation, the plane and crew flew directly to Constantinople. The equipment was mobile by rail and water. At this time, it was less than 10 days before the British officially launched the bombing!

To the surprise of future generations, this and an unexpected transfer was not discovered by the British, you know, after all, this is the transfer of a whole 4 squadrons of air hunters, a total of 80 twin-engine K-4J and L fighters flew from Bulgaria to Turkey in batches!

Even if these wings are spread out for nearly 20 meters, and the big guys with a length of more than ten meters can only be regarded as a gadget in the air, but the airport that provides security for these aircraft is a behemoth! Normal, hastily built field airfields simply cannot provide enough support for these big guys, you know, according to the internal requirements of the Bavarian Air Force, an airfield for 2 squadrons of air hunters must have at least 4 800 meters or more, and have hangars that can accommodate 30 aircraft, as well as bunker warehouses that can hold 100 tons of aviation fuel and more than 80 tons of ammunition. and a certain level of mechanical maintenance. It's not a small place to pile these things together, and the surrounding vegetation has to be cut down in order to clear the grounds, making it almost impossible to hide from the air. But why did the British ignore this?

"It seems to be a little far from the port of Constantinople." Captain Halley of the Night Scythe Squadron, who had already arrived early, was flying his plane on patrol between the base and Constantinople. Looking at the harbor in the distance and the distant base behind him, the captain couldn't help but shake his head.

Naturally, the count could not have agreed to let the Turkish side provide airfields for the German air squadron that was about to arrive. In fact this is impossible, let alone the current Turkey. You are the United States of World War 2, and it is not possible to build an airfield in a few days without adequate preparation and with enough manpower and machinery. So the Earl's proposed solution was to occupy the magpie's nest.

At a time when airplanes had not yet emerged, when the Zeppelin was still a well-deserved air supremacy, as Germany's most important ally, considering some future contacts between the two sides, outside Constantinople, the German government funded and the Turkish government sent people and localities to build a huge airship field for these huge airships. This airship yard can accommodate up to 4 zeppelins at the same time, and these airships are behemoths with a length of about 170 meters! And since such a huge airship can be docked, then the space that this airship place has is naturally large enough, so the earl thought about it, why don't you use this place first?

Then, the two squadrons of the Night Scythe and the Scimitar squadrons, the first to enter Turkey, used the airship bases, codenamed Wolf's Lair, as their base as a foothold. And this airship base is 80 kilometers from Constantinople! It is precisely because of this distance that they evaded the aviation reconnaissance of the British, at the beginning, the British actually came here to visit, and then found out that this was an abandoned airship base, so they didn't care about it, and what they didn't expect was that the Germans deployed the first two squadrons of air hunters here before the air raid was about to begin!
