After the landing force of the Tang Army successfully seized the beach, it immediately built beachhead fortifications and built temporary trestle bridges to facilitate the landing ships to dock and transport other Marine officers and men.

Although the Fijian Indian army is equipped with a large number of British-made weapons, it lacks training and tactical command personnel, and is like a plate of scattered sand.

Six leading platoons of the Tang Marines constructed simple beachhead fortifications, during which the Indians launched three large-scale counteroffensives in an attempt to drive the Tang Army out to sea.

The Don army built heavy machine-gun positions on the beachhead and blocked the charging routes of the Indian troops with a network of crossfire.

Click! Click!

Several M2 heavy machine guns on the heavy machine gun positions of the Tang army opened fire fiercely, and the bullets were dense like rain, and the enemy troops fell one by one, and the flesh and blood flew sideways, which was extremely tragic.

In the face of the almost perverted huge lethality of the M2 heavy machine gun, the Indian army was immediately frightened, and the offensive became weaker and weaker each time.

With the arrival of the SRA medium tank of the Tang Army, the tank weighing 18 tons suddenly became a bloodthirsty monster in the eyes of the Indians, and it was directly crushed out of the bloody road.

When the 75 mm howitzer tank guns opened heavy fire, the Indian troops were forced to retreat, and the Don troops quickly attacked under the cover of tanks.

The leader of the Indians, Maddie, was very remorseful, he thought that the Tang army would not dare to act because he was afraid of the British, but his mistake caused the more than 1,000 Indian troops near the refugee area to be wiped out by the Tang army.

Maddie immediately appealed to the British for help, but before the British could reply, a larger-scale retaliatory military operation of the Don Army began.

According to Zhang Meng's order, the Tang landing force should not only protect the security of the Chinese refugee area, but also take the opportunity to expand the scope of the refugee area. The Tang Naval Air Force was dispatched to carry out large-scale air raids on the Indian army, Indian tribes, and other tribes that opposed the Grand Chief of Latu.

In the dim sky, there were clouds.

Suddenly, several planes peeked out of the clouds, emitting a piercing screech.

There were a total of six planes, all painted in black and shining with a metallic luster, and a white eagle logo on a blue background in the center of the fuselage was particularly conspicuous, indicating that they belonged to the Tang Empire.

Below them is a tribe of Indians, a group of Indians have just fled into this tribe, they think that they can avoid the pursuit of the Tang army by hiding in the house, but they don't know that they have killed other Indians in this way.

Babble-babble-babble-

Several Tang bombers that followed quickly dropped aerial bombs weighing 250 kilograms.

Boom - Boom - Boom –

With a series of violent explosions, the thatched hut with an all-wooden structure was instantly destroyed by the blast wave, and the entire Indian tribe was instantly turned into a sea of fire.

The flames were scorching and the smoke was billowing like fireworks from hell.

A small tribe with a population of less than three hundred people completely disappeared from the face of the earth in the blink of an eye.

The six bombers that had completed the bombing mission circled the small tribe a few more times to make sure that no one had escaped alive before turning around and flying away.

It is a new type of bomber of the naval aviation of the Tang Empire, which belongs to the flight squadron of the aircraft carrier Tianwang of the Holding State, and they have a common name - Hellfire.

Hellfire is a heavy carrier-based bomber specially tailored for the Datang First Aircraft Carrier Combat Group by the Datang Empire Raptor Airlines.

In terms of appearance, the Hellfire heavy carrier-based bomber is designed by the famous aircraft designer Reginald Mitchell, a Briton from Tang Province, and adopts the streamlined mechanical shape design of the lower single wing, and its wing is designed as a trapezoidal straight wing to enhance the firepower and provide strength support for the folding of the carrier-based aircraft. The Grand Cross tail looks very powerful and has a greater ability to control the surname.

The overall appearance is close to the basic shape of modern propeller regional jets, and it has received extremely high scores in the wind tunnel test, making it the most aerohydrodynamic model in the world.

Just by looking at the appearance, the Hellfire has become the world's brightest star model. In particular, the black metal brushed skin process is domineering and exposed, which further reflects the name of Hellfire.

While other aircraft still use fixed landing gear, the Hellfire has been the first to adopt advanced retractable landing gear, which greatly reduces drag during flight and reduces unnecessary speed loss. The landing gear also uses advanced hydraulic shock absorption technology, and the wheels have also been changed to pneumatic tires to reduce the reaction force damage caused by the ground to the aircraft during landing.

The cockpit of the Hellfire carrier-based bomber does not expose the pilot like other aircraft, and the closed glass cover is realized. The glass cover conforms to the goose egg shape of hydrodynamics, and uses high-strength glass to have a certain bulletproof function. The glass cover is divided into two sections, the front half is fixed and the back half is sliding, which serves as the pilot access hatch.

The Hellfire uses the production and processing technology of aviation alloy aluminum materials obtained from the Bavarian aircraft factory, and the whole machine is made of integrated magnesium aluminum alloy, with the same thickness of metal skin, the Hellfire is 23% lighter than other aircraft, but the strength is 85% higher than that of ordinary aluminum alloy. This allows the Hellfire to consider distributing the weight saved to the armor protection, power system, fire system, and other key parts that affect the aircraft's ability.

Because it is a heavy carrier-based aircraft, the nose to the tail adopts integrated molding technology, especially the tail hook for landing runs through the entire body, and thanks to the 10,000-ton hydraulic press equipment of Datang Heavy Industry, the tail hook is formed as a whole, and the strength is greatly improved, even if the landing speed of the jet aircraft is enough to ensure the service life of at least 5000 times, for the landing speed of the propeller aircraft, the tail hook does not need to be maintained for life.

Because the Hellfire's tail hook runs through the entire fuselage and is extremely strong and least damaged, the tail hook has also become the most special part of the Hellfire, and also acts as a second antenna for the onboard radio equipment.

Although airborne radio equipment in this era was still a luxury, under the premise that Zhang Meng gave priority to ensuring the construction of aviation forces, each Hellfire was equipped with radio equipment, so that the Air Force Command could directly contact every pilot, directly grasp the latest combat situation on the front line and conduct front-line command, and played a huge role in the overall strategic arrangement and deployment.

Since the Hellfire was designed as a heavy carrier-based bomber, the payload naturally would not be less.

According to Zhang Meng's request, if the Royal Navy of the Tang Empire wanted to counter the threat of battleships from the combined fleet, it must have aerial bombs and aerial torpedoes to sink the battleships.

Based on the horizontal armor protection capability of the main battleship of the Navy, as well as the possibility of retrofitting and enhancing defense in the future, Raptor Airlines has designed a carrier-based bomber that can carry two 500-kilogram aerial bombs, four 250-kilogram aerial bombs, or one 900-kilogram aerial torpedo.

Among them, 500 kg of aerial bombs and 900 kg of aerial torpedoes are used against battleships with thick armor and other super-large surface warships, while 250 kg aerial bombs are used against small and medium-sized surface warships with relatively thin armor, and can also carry out ground bombing missions.

Due to the rapid development of technology in the field of world aviation, the weight and quantity of ammunition carried by bombers are constantly increasing, so the international standards for bombers are different from country to country, and they are changing every year. During the First World War, a bomber carrying 10 30-kilogram aerial bombs was considered a heavy bomber, but by the thirties, the aircraft surname could be greatly improved, and a fighter capable of carrying two aerial bombs of more than 250 kilograms was considered a heavy bomber.

The carrier-based bomber has not been defined, and the A1N1-3 aircraft equipped on the Fengxiang aircraft carrier can only carry two 30-kilogram aerial bombs, and compared with the carrier-based bomber of the Raptor, the Hellfire carrier-based bomber developed by Raptor Aviation can carry two 500-kilogram aerial bombs, which is naturally considered a heavy carrier-based bomber.

However, according to Zhang Meng's requirements, a heavy carrier-based bomber should not only refer to its bomb load, but also include its armor protection, speed, and firepower.

Due to the use of advanced magnesium and aluminum alloy technology, a lot of weight can be allocated to key parts such as fuel tanks, cockpits, and cooling systems to ensure that they still maintain flight stability under the attack of enemy fighters.

The Hellfire weighs 3.1 tons, of which the additional armor part accounts for 140 kilograms, and key parts such as the cabin pilot's guard plate and fuel tank can protect against close-range fire from machine gun shells below 10 mm caliber.

In terms of firepower, although the Hellfire is a carrier-based bomber, a 12.7 mm M2 heavy machine gun is installed on each wing, and each is equipped with 100 rounds of ammunition as standard. The standard bullets are somewhat less, because after all, it is a bomber and not a fighter, and the firepower is only used for self-preservation.

The Hellfire not only increases armor protection and payload, but also is equipped with strong self-defense firepower, so that the standard take-off weight reaches more than 3 tons.

However, the speed requirement of the Hellfire is to ensure a speed of at least 350 kilometers per hour, considering that in order to propel a 3-ton aircraft to take off, it must take off on the 130-meter deck of the aircraft carrier, and the afterburner of the catapult is removed, and the horsepower of the Hellfire's own aero engine needs to be at least 1500 or more to be enough.

In the late twenties and early thirties, although the horsepower of aero engines in laboratories in various countries had reached 1,800 horsepower, too little was actually used in practice.

Although Raptor Airlines has previously produced two core technologies of the Falcon 63 water-cooled aero engine and the DB600A aero engine produced by Daimler-Benz in Germany, the horsepower of the latter has reached the minimum requirement of 1500 horsepower, but some key components of the Datang Empire's own factory cannot be produced.

Zhang Meng knows very well that the engine is the key to the aircraft, and it cannot rely on imports. Under the supervision of Zhang Meng, the Quincy air compressor factory has settled in Datang, and has broken through a large number of key technologies in order to develop large air compressors for the Yanjing Super Wind Tunnel Group, so that Datang has the manufacturing technology of turbine aero engine engines.

Although Datang's own turbo aero engine engine is still relatively rudimentary, the efficiency of the turbine is more than 2~3 times higher than that of the piston engine, and Datang's own primary turbine engine can produce 1600 horsepower, which is enough to meet the needs of the Hellfire's 350 kilometers per hour.

As a result, the Hellfire became the world's first turbine-powered propeller aircraft, and for that alone, the Hellfire became one of the world's best aircraft in the history of aviation.

In the end, the Hellfire heavy carrier-based bomber reached a maximum speed of 410 kilometers per hour during the test, and the normal cruising speed was maintained in the range of 330~350, which was faster than the fighters of other countries.

The Hellfire heavy carrier-based bomber is comprehensively superior to all aircraft in the rest of the world in terms of speed, defense, firepower, bomb load, or avant-garde design and high technology.

It can be said unabashedly that the Hellfire heavy carrier-based fighter is destined to dominate the world from the day it came out.
