Chapter 492: U.S. Airship
Su Qun of the Military Intelligence Department sent a military report on the US military in his hand to Chen Zhong. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info..
This report records the armament situation of the US military in recent years. However, there is no mention of research and production of airships.
Chen Zhong frowned, and asked Su Qun: "Minister Su, the information you provided is very valuable, but what I want to know at the moment is where did the two American airships come from?" ”
The ship is not far away, and he hates to be alone, and he has no secret to take care of
Su Qun said: "Your Majesty, the reason why the minister is holding this report on the armaments of the US military in recent years is to explain that these two airships were not produced by the Americans themselves, but from another source. ”
Chen Zhong pondered for a moment and said, "You mean that these two airships of the US military were provided to them by other countries?" ”
"Yes, Your Majesty. According to information from our intelligence officers, the French and British envoys recently secretly met with the President of the United States, and their topic was the situation in the East China Sea.
At present, only the British and Germans are relatively advanced in the development of submarines and airships, and other countries cannot have such high-end aviation technology.
Sun Bu is not the earth and the moon technique, so the battle is the commander
As far as we can speculate, this should have been given to them by the British. Even the six submarines that the U.S. military parked in Hawaii may have been provided by the British. Su Qun handed Chen Zhong another piece of information about the British and French envoys to the United States.
Chen Zhongfen sneered at the contents of the intelligence of the British and French envoys to the United States, and said: "The British and the French want to compete for a piece of the pie in the Far East, and they are also worried that the Germans will threaten their interests in Europe. Therefore, in the Far East, they pinned their hopes on the Americans.
The Americans are smart and will not easily become the gunmen of Britain and France. However, this time the battle in the East China Sea did put them in a dilemma. Now, they want to gamble again. At this time, the arms assistance provided by Britain and France was, of course, unwanted.
However, it would be wishful thinking for them to defeat my 300,000 land, sea and air cavalry with just these two airships and six attack submarines.
If the Yankees want to become a world hegemon, it is simply impossible to rely on this military strength and domestic economic base alone!
I must convince these Western powers this time! Brainwash these robbers who are accustomed to pointing fingers in the world, my Chinese Empire is the master of this world! ”
After determining the source and performance of the two airships, Chen Zhong immediately summoned Marshal Chen Fangzheng.
Chen Zhong said: "Commander Chen, this time, against the US airship, I think that you immediately order Nangong Wentian to formulate an air attack plan for the US airship.
I hope that this time, our naval aviation will be able to shoot down these two US airships over the East China Sea.
And order your three fleets to prepare for a general attack on the U.S. Pacific Fleet as originally planned.
In addition, in the plan of this attack, we should give full play to the advantages of our underwater submarines and minimize the casualties of the fleet.
Also, Commander Chen, how are the logistics of your navy currently prepared, if nothing else, I will go to the United States with your fleet in a week! I want to personally witness the arrival of our Chinese Empire's fleet on the American mainland! ”
Chen Fangzheng said: "Your Majesty, the logistics of our navy are basically ready, and there are still some medical things being prepared, and it will take a few days, but within a week, all preparations will definitely be completed."
As for the air attack on the US airship this time, their aviation brigade is formulating a feasible plan, after all, it is the first time to strike such a flying machine in the air, and all factors must be taken into account, Colonel Nangong Wentian is organizing technicians to conduct simulation experiments to ensure that nothing goes wrong!
Two hours ago, I received a message from the Naval Air Force that they would be ready to take off for this air raid mission after the early hours of tonight.
The original planes of our maritime aviation brigade could not destroy the behemoth of airships, but now after improvement, five new H-7H-8H-9H-10H-11 aircraft have been listed.
The aircraft can reach a maximum speed of 145 kilometers per hour and a climb speed of 366 meters per minute.
With the inclusion of these five planes, we will be able to defeat these two US airships from the air.
The two US airships were parked high in the air between our fleet and the US fleet. From now on, the two US airships have no intention of attacking our troops.
According to analysis, the reason why these two airships are parked in this space is to ensure that the US Pacific Fleet can more safely wait for reinforcements from their homeland.
Now, after our military has added five new H-7H-8H-9H-10H-11 planes, the strategic intentions of the US military will be completely defeated. ”
Chen Zhong nodded and said, "After midnight tonight, order these five planes to carry out an air attack on these two US airships!" ”
This air raid was the most important strategic bombing, an air attack that was carefully planned by the naval air brigade.
Because they knew very well that only by defeating these two airships of the US army, the naval fleet of the Huaxia Empire would be able to safely approach the US Pacific Fleet and smoothly implement the next offensive plan.
Today, the General Administration of Aviation Industry of the Chinese Empire has improved and developed this H series of aircraft, which is a very remarkable aircraft. It is a kind of biplane. In order to carry out an air attack on the two US airships, it was necessary to take off from Chongming Island, which is 178 kilometers away from the target, and fly over the US fleet in the East China Sea.
At 0:26 on November 12, these five planes quietly took off from the base on Chongming Island.
After almost an hour and twenty minutes of flight, at 2:01 a.m., five planes came to the top of the airship.
The H-7H-8 aircraft was the first to drop bombs, hitting the first airship target at high altitude.
Immediately after the US airship was attacked, it notified the US Pacific Fleet in the East China Sea.
The US naval air defense troops immediately returned fire, and the antiaircraft guns and antiaircraft machine guns on the warship fired very fiercely.
Before the other three planes could drop their bombs, they found that the antiaircraft fire of the US troops was very fierce, so they quickly pulled the planes up from the state of diving at close to the limit speed and toward the sun.
The airship that was hit produced a huge explosion, and a large fireball suddenly swelled. The US airship was successfully destroyed.
No, the ship does not hate Xueyangqiu, so he takes the revenge alone
Just twenty seconds after the explosion of the first US airship, the H-II suddenly dived towards the second US airship from a high altitude.
The plane, with its sudden dive, was completely unexpected by the American anti-aircraft gunners.
The enemy Koko hates the cold ball, and my lord makes it cold
The H-11 quickly dropped a 200-kilogram bomb and then quickly lifted up.
Unfortunately, a little later, the tail of the plane was hit by an anti-aircraft shell, and finally the H-11 fell into the sea and exploded after taxiing for 70 kilometers, fortunately the pilot jumped into the sea to escape and was rescued by the Hainan fleet.
