"What's going on?" There was an alarm from the airship, and Lin Tae-hee and Han Xiujing, who were beside Wang Yi, were a little scared. Chu Yuan knocked on the door at this time and walked in, and after saluting Wang Yi, he said, "Captain, an unknown target has been found on the radar, and it is currently being confirmed." ”

"Unidentified target?" Wang Yi is strange, it stands to reason that in East Asia, except for the Northeast, there is no other home that has airships, and it is even more impossible for other flying machines.

Soon after, an airship appeared in the distant sky, but now it looked about the size of a mosquito.

"It's ......"

"The airships of the Germans!" Captain Han Bai appeared behind Wang Yi. "I didn't expect to come to East Asia."

"Led Zeppelin?" The only German airship that Wang Yi knows is Zeppelin, but it stands to reason that this series of airships will appear at least after 1900, how can it appear now?

"The captain knows! I heard that three months ago, the Germans began to experiment with this new airship, but I didn't expect it to be in East Asia now. Han Bai explained to Wang Yi: "However, the appearance is somewhat similar to our mammoth, and it seems that it has also been used as a reference." ”

Wang Yixin said, I copied others.

However, at this time, Han Bai had a trace of disdain in his eyes, and said: "Because Germany currently does not have helium production technology, the airship is still filled with flammable and explosive hydrogen. If this kind of airship goes to the battlefield, it may be possible to only do reconnaissance. But to get them into battle would be tantamount to murder. ”

Wang nodded, it is true that hydrogen airships are not suitable for the battlefield.

"Let a pit viper pass and drive him away. They are in our northeastern airspace, and no airship is allowed to enter without our permission. Wang Yi's voice was not harsh, and now in this era, except for the Northeast, there is no concept of airspace in the rest of the world.

"Yes!" Han Bai turned around and left, giving an order.

A pit viper flew towards the airship in the distance, and the volume and speed of that airship were obviously a few levels lower than that of the pit viper.

"It feels like bullying a child." Han Xiujing said with a smile.

Wang Yi looked out through the round window, and at this time, another pit viper airship also circled from the other side, making a defensive gesture.

The airship turned out to be a zeppelin, and his inventor Ferdinand von Zeppelin was on the airship. But now his face is not good, and the airship rushing in the distance has a hideous attitude. If he sees it right, this should be the famous pit viper combat airship of the Northeast Autonomous Region Air Force. As the airship approached, the huge pit viper pattern on the skin confirmed his suspicions.

It is precisely because of the excellence of the Northeast airship on the battlefield that the German Emperor Wilhelm I was moved, and then ordered the iron-blooded prime minister Bismarck to provide strong financial and technical support for the development of the airship. However, even so, with some technical data of the Northeast airship as a reference, the German airship technology still cannot be compared with the Northeast. The two main reasons for this are that the Northeast has aluminium smelting technology, which is still being developed in Germany. The second is the large-scale preparation of helium, and Germany itself estimates that it will take at least ten years to solve this technical problem.

"Captain, it seems to be a pit viper airship from the northeast." The adjutant stood behind Zeppelin and reminded softly.

Zeppelin nodded, his eyes shining with amazement. The Zeppelin is currently flying around the world, and now countries are keen to set a record that no other country has. The airships in the Northeast are either military or civilian, and no attempts have been made in this regard so far. Mainly in Wang Yi's view, it is understandable to fly around the world as a technical verification. But to travel around the world just for the sake of a world record is to have enough to eat and have nothing to do.

"What a beautiful pit viper, the three airships in the distance, it seems that one is also a pit viper, and the other is a mammoth...... It's huge! The one in front of the mammoth...... I haven't seen it, it seems that it should be a high-ranking official in the northeast. ”

"Except for Premier Yang Qiuxing and Chairman of the National People's Congress Zhao Jingyi in the Northeast Autonomous Region, there is only one person who can have such an airship!" The adjutant apparently knows the Northeast well.

"You mean......" Zeppelin withdrew his gaze from the pit viper for the first time, looking at his lieutenant.

"The chairman of the Northeast Dashang Group! Wang Yi! ”

Zeppelin was slightly taken aback, and then looked out the window again at the pit viper and the airship in the distance, with a complicated expression.

The pit viper was already less than two hundred meters away from the Zeppelin at this time, and Zeppelin and the others had not discovered that the speed of the pit viper had reached such an astonishing distance.

"Attention to the airship on the other side, you have violated the airspace of the Northeast Autonomous Region, please exit immediately. Again, you have violated the airspace of the Northeast, please withdraw immediately. "There was a flurry of German from the pit viper.

"The airspace of the Northeast?"

Zeppelin and the adjutant looked at each other, a little inexplicable. They've heard of territory and territorial waters, but what does airspace mean? …… Besides, the airship is currently in the western Pacific Ocean, how did it become the airspace of the northeast?

Fortunately, a large amplifier was also installed on the Zeppelin, otherwise the two sides would not have been able to communicate.

Zeppelin himself replied: "We are Zeppelin I of the German Imperial Air Force, and we are currently flying around the world. Please do not interfere with our normal flight! ”

The pit viper didn't care about that, and the four cannons that were originally low-hanging were all running at this time, and the muzzles were all aimed at the Zeppelin.

"This is the last warning, you have violated our airspace, now immediately reduce the flight altitude and accept our guidance, otherwise we will attack."

This is probably the first sky confrontation in human history, but although Zeppelin is a Luftwaffe airship, there are only eight soldiers on it, plus a Gatling cannon. The force is so weak that it poses no threat to pit vipers. However, there was a small German fleet of cruisers and a supply ship in the sea below the airship. They were the guide ships of the Zeppelin, and in this era, it was obviously not realistic to rely on airships alone to fly around the world.

"Captain, what should I do?" The adjutant's face turned pale.

Zeppelin is also hesitating, although the Northeast is now very strong, but it seems too embarrassing to surrender directly like this, after all, they are also German officers and represent the face of Germany.

While Zeppelin was thinking, the pit viper said, "Lower the altitude now, or we will open fire!" Now start the countdown, ten, nine, eight......"

Now the Germans were really panicked, and Zeppelin scolded: "These crazy people in the Northeast! Do as they say! ”

"Pause the firing, we will lower the altitude."

Although Wang Yiyuan couldn't really hear it, he also knew what was going on. In the past, because only the northeast had airships that could be put into use, the ground airspace air defense system had not yet been established on a large scale, and only key cities had small-scale air defense, mainly to prevent some unpredictable situations. For example, hijacking aircraft or armed rebellion. However, now that there are German airships, and other countries are currently stepping up the development of related technologies, it seems that airspace and air defense should be on the agenda.

The Zeppelin was forced to land and was guided by a pit viper. The German fleet below did not know what was happening at the moment, and it was only later that the conversation between Guò and Guò realized what was happening, although there were weapons on the ships, but they were limited to naval battles, and there was really no good way to deal with the air. But he couldn't watch the Zeppelin being taken away by the Northeast Autonomous Region, so he also followed below.

Wang Yi's current destination is Tanegashima Island, south of Kyushu, Japan, across the Osumi Strait, which was later home to the Japan Space Launch Ground. When the Ryukyu Islands were occupied by the Tohoku Autonomous Region, a naval and air base was established to deter the waters of Kyushu. After arriving at Tanegashima, the airship will rest and recuperate before heading to Naha, then via Taiwan, Hainan, and finally North Vietnam.

The itinerary of this road looks far away, but it is very fresh for Wang Yi, who is not far away, so he doesn't feel boring.

After arriving at Tanegashima, it was impossible for the future of Wang Yi to come here, so today he went around the island on an airship. Tanegashima has less than 10,000 people, and about half of them are concentrated in the northern port city of Kitane, or Nishinomote as it is known in Japan. The rest of the population is scattered between the middle and southern races. Tanegashima has a relatively developed agriculture, with dry land in the north producing wheat, sweet potatoes and upland rice, and rice in the south, which is the largest rice producer among the many nearby islands, which has somewhat alleviated the problem of grain production in the nearby areas.

Zeppelin also stepped down from the airship at this time, but the insurance team did not embarrass them, but all of them were disarmed. Although the Northeast Autonomous Region had good relations with Germany, and to be honest, the Zeppelin did fly in the public airspace of later generations. Even if it is considered a violation of airspace, or entering the aviation self-defense identification circle, it is Japan's airspace, and it has nothing to do with Tohoku.

However, today's matter, Wang Yi still has to do this, it is nothing more than a warning to Germany. Friendship is friendship, but if the German airship is really allowed to be so unscrupulous in East Asia, it will be difficult to do it in the future if it is not done in a public way today. Wilhelm I of Germany had always wanted a good port in East Asia. Because of the refusal of the Northeast, it has been delayed until now. The Navy's military exchanges are okay, but if you want to stay in the Northeast, there is no door.

Zeppelin was standing on the airfield at this time, but he was not disappointed, at least he could observe the Northeast Air Force from a distance, as well as the pit vipers and mammoths. His lieutenant then requested that the German Embassy in Beijing be contacted by telegram in order to resolve the problem at hand.

The northeastern side was not embarrassed, so the adjutant followed one of the officers of the insurance team to the telegraph room.

Wang Yi was not interested in receiving Zeppelin, and at this time it was the commander of the Navy and Air Force of Tanegashima who appeared in front of him, Shangguan Yang.
