In the drizzling rain, a black convoy with the German royal emblem painted on the front of the car sped into the military airfield on the western outskirts of Berlin. On both sides of the runways of the airport, neatly arranged silver-gray metal fighters are silently being washed by the rain, ground crews wearing yellow ponchos are busy shuttling, and pilots in leather jackets are constantly sitting in the cockpits of these fighters with streamlined bodies and strong force.

The black convoy eventually drove onto the airport's main runway No. 5, where a lone oversized aircraft was parked at one end of the wide runway. With its silver-gray sleek appearance, 4 high-horsepower engines and huge three-bladed propellers, if it weren't for the lack of a mushroom-like semicircular turret, people might think of it as a Dornier III ultra-long-range bomber, but this aircraft is similar to the Dornier III in terms of use, performance and even cost are very different.

"Royal German", there is no number on the position of the plane number but such a row of German text, in Germany in this era, there are not a few airships and planes with exclusive names, but look at the eye-catching royal logo on the nose, and then look at the golden handrails and bright red carpet on the boarding gangway, these small details are enough to explain something.

In fact, this 32.5-meter-long, 45.7-meter-wide, and 9.1-meter-tall guy is not an ordinary person, it is the Kaiser's special landline, that is, the German Air Force One!

The black Maybach extended sedan with a noble appearance stopped accurately next to the red carpet, a chamberlain in a royal dress held up a large black umbrella by the door, and the other respectfully opened the car door, sitting on this top sedan worth 550,000 European marks was no one else, and Chen Tian, who was dressed in military uniform, walked on the red carpet with the graceful and luxurious Juliana.

The temperature in Berlin is getting cooler in October, and today is another cold and rainy day, and the white air coming out of people's mouths is clearly visible.

"Your Majesty, everything is ready!" The saber attendant, who had been waiting next to the red carpet for a long time, whispered.

Chen Tian nodded, this was his first trip since his marriage, and it was also the first time that Juliana beside him traveled as the Empress of Germany.

For the "Royal-German" in front of you. Chen Tian is no stranger, this is his fifth special plane after ascending the throne, although the largest volume is the previous helium airship, but this one is definitely the most technologically advanced, the most complete equipment and the most comfortable layout. When you walk into this plane, you will find that it is basically a flying palace in the sky - it is similar in size to an ultra-long-range bomber, and it is divided into two floors, the upper floor is the exclusive area of the royal family, and the lower level is the office area of the entourage.

After walking through the boarding door, Chen Tian and Juliana arrived at the "living room" at the front of the royal area. The cold aluminium interior has been replaced by oak panels with uniform stripes and a delicate layer of glossy fire-retardant paint, and there are even delicate chandeliers every two meters on the top of the cabin, which are filtered by a pale blue glazed cover and become unusually soft, and the light is comfortably sprinkled on the large brown and yellow Persian carpet, which is a genuine carpet that gives the intimate feeling of walking on the vast grassland.

"Wow, I love this flower!" Juliana's surprise came from the small lilac flowers in a vase placed next to the portholes, which had been specially prepared an hour earlier from the royal flower garden, in this lavishly furnished "living room", each porthole hung with floor-to-ceiling beige velvet curtains, and in the center was a set of four top-quality leather sofas made in Milan and a transparent glass coffee table. What's even more surprising is that there is a one-man tall wooden bookcase on one side of this small sitting area.

There are all kinds of books neatly arranged inside.

A movable screen separates the "living room" from the royal dining room. In this modest dining room, a long oval wooden table takes up a considerable portion of the space, and around the table are eight quaint Chinese mahogany chairs. The backs and armrests are carved with oriental patterns, and it is no exaggeration to say that they are so delicate that even connoisseurs will be amazed.

Further inside the dining room is the royal lounge area, with a chair with a back, a small desk, a large and comfortable bed, and a small two-metre square washroom where you can even take a comfortable hot bath if the owner wishes.

"This is our Flying Palace! What do you think? Not bad, right? ”

Chen Tian led Juliana to the "bedroom" with ease, although the plane had only been in use for a year and a half. Tatsuten has ridden it more than twenty times.

"Well, I only have one question now, what makes this huge palace fly?"

Juliana sat gently on the blue and white bed, her fingers feeling the soft feel of the sheet fabric.

"Technology, great technology!"

As Chen Tian spoke, in the office area on the lower floor, the staff officers and royal attendants were busy making the final preparations before taking off. There are also three parts to this area, which is a bomb magazine on the bomber: the front one is the communications office area, and eight similar but somewhat different transceivers are placed on special tables in a back-to-back fashion, and the telegraph operators wearing headphones are already in place. The paper and pencils used to record the telegraph were neatly placed next to the telegraph, as were the large desks used by the staff officers and the ladder leading to the upper area, which was undoubtedly the largest of the three lower areas.

In the middle of the lower level is a place for the entourage to eat and rest, a long table that can accommodate ten people at the same time, two rows of leather seats by the window that can be adjusted to the angle of the backrest for rest and sleep, and two opposite square single lavatories, where officers can wash and use the toilet.1 6k At the very end of the plane, a small galley is responsible for providing food and drink for all the personnel on the plane, including the pilots, where there are ovens, kerosene stoves, frying pans, water tanks and many other kitchen utensils, toasting, Cooking dishes and making coffee is not a problem, as long as the process is not too complicated, the royal chefs can handle it.

"Oh, that's our escort plane!"

Chen Tian opened the curtain and pointed to the runway outside the window, the rain was still falling, but on those runways there were already fighter jets taking off, there were single-wing and single-engine Messerschmitt training I fighters, and single-wing and double-engine Black Hawk II-D long-range fighters, the fighters of the two squadrons will ensure that the safety of the "Royal-German" is not threatened throughout the whole process.

"Oh!"

Juliana didn't seem to have much interest in the advanced fighters......

"There they are!" Tatsuten shrugged, "At least we won't be too bored along the way!" ”

January 27, 1929 at 10 a.m. Berlin time. Twelve hours after the tsunami program began, the "Royal German" embarked on a long journey with Chentian and his wife and 46 members of their entourage.

Korean Peninsula, Port of Incheon.

"What? The enemy is under fierce fire, and you have suffered heavy casualties? Bastard! If you lose your position, come to me with your head! ”

After hanging up the phone with a snap, the mood of the cake hara became even heavier, it was 5 o'clock in the afternoon, which meant that the Luftwaffe and the port where he was stationed had been carried out for 12 hours in a row. The fleet outside the harbor had been pouring shells into the harbor for the past eight hours, and what was worse was that this morning the Germans had parachuted thousands of soldiers on the outskirts of Seoul, not far from there, and with the assistance of the Korean guerrillas, they not only succeeded in annihilating the Japanese garrison from Seoul, but at noon they even approached the edge of the city of Seoul, and from the afternoon they turned around and moved towards Incheon.

After less than 10 seconds of silence, the phone rang again, and Kiwon, who was the commander of the Incheon Port District garrison, picked up the phone head-on, "What? Dongping Heights lost? Akiyama-kun you...... I don't care if you have 50 or 5 people, whether the other side is German or North Korean. If an hour later the position is still in the hands of the enemy. Apologize to the Emperor yourself! ”

Kijohara hung up the phone without saying anything, he didn't want to hear "please send reinforcements" anymore

These are the words, because he had already sent out his direct guard two hours ago. Send again? Kibara looked up at the only dozen staff officers in the room, and lowered his head again.

As the outer harbor of Seoul, Incheon is by no means a good choice for a beach landing because of its "small island barrier and large tidal range", but now that the Germans have invested so many troops here, is it really just a "feint" to the Xiaoiso Command, as the Xiaoiso Command said?

Thinking about it, Kijohara felt more and more big, so he decided to go outside, even though the sky was occupied by the hateful German planes, and the sea was also the territory of the German navy.

Outcome. As soon as he walked out of the reinforced concrete fortifications where the headquarters was located, he was almost knocked to the ground by a strong air current, and the explosion outside was much clearer than in the underground fortifications, and at the same time, the pressure on the eardrums also increased in an instant, and several groups of German fighters preparing to drop bombs or had just finished dropping bombs were circling over the port area, whether they were carrier-based planes of the German Navy or German land-based planes taking off from Dalian, and there was no need to identify them.

"Kataoka, the German air raids are really fierce!"

Kichihara said with emotion to Kataoka Kazumoto, the only guard behind him, that although this 19-year-old soldier had only been in the army for one year. People are very clever, but they are also a little indifferent under such a formation.

"Osa...... We...... Let's be careful! Kataoka's eyes were full of worry and fear, constantly moving with the German planes in the sky.

Although this Taisho 14-year-style steel helmet is a standard steel helmet designed by the Japanese Army in imitation of the German ** team, the performance in the previous wars is not very good, the red cockade in front of the steel helmet is extremely easy to become the target of the German sniper, in order to save materials and reduce the thickness of the direct consequence is that this steel helmet is very poor in resisting shrapnel, and if the German shells and bombs fall nearby, even if the steel helmet is good.

Something is better than nothing, Kibihara always told himself, and when he looked back at Kataoka, the kid was bowed like a shrimp, and one hand was still holding the steel helmet tightly, as if he was afraid that it would be shaken down.

Thanks to the joint efforts of the German Navy and Air Force, the Incheon port area was in shambles, full of collapsed or semi-collapsed buildings, and the few that still stood were riddled with holes. Kibara and Kataoka struggled through the ruins, occasionally rolling behind the broken walls to escape the bombing and strafing of German fighters, and by the time they finally reached an observation post near the docks, they were already miserable.

"Dazuo, why are you here!"

The two remaining soldiers at the observation post were visibly stunned by the arrival.

Cake Hara asked with a straight face: "You guys have a phone call here, why don't you send someone directly to the headquarters to report the situation?" ”

"Osa......" The two Japanese soldiers who were about 30 years old looked aggrieved, "Aoyama, Yoshimatsu, and Asai all went, but they were ...... halfway through"

Kijohara was stunned, no wonder there were only two of them in this observation post, and one of them had gauze wrapped around his head, and the other leg was also injured. Now Zi Bihara couldn't blame him again, and seeing that the telescope in the observation post was still there, he asked again:

"How's it going?"

"Dazuo, the enemy ships are too far away, and we can't determine the type and specific number of ships!"

As he spoke, there was another whistling sound on the sea, the dull sound of large-caliber naval guns cutting through the air, which violently stimulated people's hearts every second, until it finally ended with a loud sound that had a great impact on the eardrums.

"At least 20 305-mm cannons! God, how many battleships did the Germans really have? Kibara remembers that at noon the command said that the main attack of the Germans was in the mountains because there were at least five German capital ships shelling the harbor, but it was obviously impossible for the large-caliber shells that had just fallen here to be fired from one or two German battleships.

"Here we go again!" Kataoka screamed, this time the voice was even more powerful, and the duration of more than ten seconds was telling people that they were flying from more than ten kilometers away!

The more the experienced Bihara listened, the more wrong it became, "Get down!" ”

There was a loud bang that made Kigahara feel like his internal organs had been shattered, and he felt that if the enemy hadn't used the new gunpowder technology, it must have a naval gun larger than 365 mm, 356 or even 406, and most likely more than one ship.

"How many battleships did the Germans really have? Where exactly are they attacking? When will their infantry land? ”

A barrage of greetings made Kiohara's head swell and hurt, and soon after he emerged from under the large cloud of dust kicked up by the cannonballs, the answers began to emerge one by one.
