Chapter 204: Airships in Europe!

After meeting Yan Xueyi, the German ambassador Henry, accompanied by the personnel of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Han Kingdom, walked around Yuanhe City and even outside Yuanhe City every day, as long as it was not too important, Henry could go in and have a look, including the barracks of the Praetorian Guard.

Henry found that there was a huge difference between the appearance of the people under the Han Kingdom and the appearance of the people under the Manchu Dynasty, the latter could be described as insensitive, while the former was vibrant.

The most notable thing for Henry was the industrial development of the Han Kingdom, and Henry speculated that the industrial level of the Han Kingdom might not be inferior to that of Russia.

There is also the army of the Han Kingdom, when Henry watched the training of the Praetorian Guard, he also had to sigh that the elite level of the army of the Han Kingdom was no less than that of the German Army, not to mention that the army of the Han Kingdom was actually equipped with the most advanced weapons in the world.

The ancient Oriental country was changing so fast and so much that every day Henry traveled around during the day, and at night Henry would write notes on the changes in the country when he returned to his lodgings.

On September 19, Henry was informed that the airship bound for Europe would depart tomorrow, so that Henry could prepare a little.

This is a matter that has been decided before, Yan Xueyi is going to send an airship to Europe for "airship deterrence", Foreign Minister Cao Xuwen visited Germany by the way, and sent Henry back to Germany by the way, after all, Henry is the Westerner who knows the Han Kingdom best at present, and Henry can let the German high-level have an in-depth understanding of the Han Kingdom, so that the two countries can smoothly carry out equal dialogue.

A weak country is not qualified to work with a strong country!

If you want to take an airship from the Han Kingdom in East Asia to fly directly to Germany in Western Europe, this is not an easy thing, the Han Kingdom Yuanhe City and Berlin, Germany are 7,500 kilometers apart, the airship flies directly from Yuanhe City to Berlin, the most important thing is the direction (route) problem, this era can have no satellite navigation, the method of judging the direction is very simple, maybe a strong wind blows, the airship will deviate from the course, even if it deviates from the route a little, it will eventually become a huge gap.

Moreover, airships also have to take into account the problem of fuel supply, and it may be difficult for airships to get fuel supplies to Europe, so airships need to carry the fuel needed to travel back and forth.

According to the flight plan, three Kunpeng-8 heavy airships will take off from Yuanhe City and fly directly to Berlin, Germany, and after putting down Cao Xuwen and Henry in Berlin, they will set off for Paris, France, and after throwing leaflets in a circle in Paris, they will fly towards London, England, and after throwing leaflets in a few circles over London, the airship will return to Berlin and wait until Cao Xuwen returns to the airship and then returns to Yuanhe City.

According to the route on the flight plan, the round-trip distance of the airship is at least 17,150 kilometers, and this is still a straight flight without any accidents, so the airship should carry as much fuel as possible.

In order to smoothly carry out the task of "airship deterrence," the Air Force directly took out three Kunpeng-8 heavy airships for modification, and the Kunpeng-8 heavy airship is the largest airship in service in the Han Army, which can bring more deterrent power to Western countries than small and medium-sized airships.

On the morning of 20 September, three airships with huge iron-blooded Han flags painted on their shells slowly rose into the air under the gaze of everyone.

The distance between Yuanhe City and Berlin in a straight line is 7,500 kilometers, and the airship is flying at a speed of 80 kilometers per hour, and it is expected to arrive at its destination in three days and nine hours.

On the way home, Henry felt a different feeling in his heart, Henry remembered the first time he came to this oriental country, when he was on a ship, set off from Germany, and arrived at his destination after wandering on the sea for many months, Henry really didn't want to go through such a painful thing again.

Now Henry felt like he was in a dream, sitting in an airship without a hint of bumps, and it only took a little more than three days for him to return to his hometown, how incredible it was.

Fortunately, this is the second time Henry has taken an airship, and he will not lose his temper like the first time.

Time flies, three days have passed, and Germany is at hand.

There were some minor accidents that caused the airship to deviate from course, but they were quickly corrected and had no effect on the trip.

At this time, the skies over Europe were still covered in darkness, and it was expected that it would be just dawn when the airship entered the skies over Germany. (The time difference is only a rough estimate, and the author did not delve into it)

Perhaps it was about to return to his hometown, and Henry was so excited that he couldn't sleep.

When the sun reappeared on the earth, the altitude of the three airships began to slowly decrease.

"We're back in Germany, I know the castle, I've been there." Seeing the buildings on the ground, Henry said excitedly.

The people on the airship can see the scenery on the earth, and of course the people on the earth can also see the airship in the air, and everyone who sees the airship has a long mouth and stares straight at the airship.

"That's an airship, such a big airship, I don't know which country built it." A knowledgeable German looked at the airship in the sky and sighed.

The airship continued on its way, and it didn't take long for Berlin to be seen.

"Look, that's the Brandenburg Gate, where the State Opera ......" Henry enthusiastically introduced the iconic buildings of Berlin to Cao Xuwen, which are all symbols of Berlin.

Three huge airships circled the city of Berlin, and not long after, the airship with four passengers on board landed in an open field on the outskirts of Berlin.

From the moment the airship appeared in Germany, the German high-level people already knew about it, and paid close attention to the airship's route, and the German high-level people knew that the only country with such a huge airship now was the Dahan Kingdom, and they didn't know what the airship of the Dahan Kingdom came to Germany to do, and Germany couldn't do anything about the airship in the sky.

The German top brass was even more surprised where the airship came from, was it far away in Asia?

When three huge airships appeared in the sky over Berlin, the German top brass looked curiously at this behemoth that could blow up and sink the battleship.

"What if a bomb is dropped on the airship at this time?" A German high-ranking said jokingly.

However, the joke was not funny, so everyone who heard the joke had a heavy look on their faces, including Kaiser Wilhelm II.

If the airship did drop the bomb, Berlin would suffer huge losses, and they could not stop the bombardment of the airship, and now Germany did not even have a real anti-aircraft gun, let alone an airship.

Fortunately, the three airships just circled over Berlin and did not drop bombs or anything.

"Look, that airship looks like it's going to land on the outskirts."

"Looks like our guests have arrived." Wilhelm II said softly. (To be continued.) )
