The Harrier's first battle was enough to surprise the pilots and commanders of the British Royal Navy. Excluding the results of the American carrier-based aircraft Banshee and the more ferocious Sea Javelin, the Sea Harrier scored 6 to 13 in an air battle with the Italian Air Force D-4 Phantom.

The goblin, once called a terrifying demon by the British Royal Navy, has lost its once invincible mana and has once again transformed into a mountain patrol monster that everyone is afraid of.

This made Cunningham's pre-war suspicion of the "bright" plan much less, and his reverence for Prime Minister Churchill much more.

In the air battle in the western Mediterranean, the better carrier-based aircraft were the Sea Javelins that took off from the two Essex-class aircraft carriers.

The naval carrier-based aircraft version of the F-102 Triangular Javelin was given the designation F-7. The F-7 has been designed since its inception to help aircraft carriers compete for air supremacy, and it cannot even carry ordinary bombs. Four 23mm cannons and eight AIM-9C Sidewinder air-to-air missiles ensure its formidable attack capability at high speeds.

The Sea Javelin's mechanical scanning Doppler radar can search for air targets up to 60 kilometers away, which allows the Sea Javelin formation to be ready for battle long in advance. Because of the improvement of radar performance, the guidance method of the C-type Sidewinder air-to-air missile is not the infrared guidance of the previous model, but the semi-active radar guidance.

Since the initial model of the Sidewinder missile can only be attacked by locking on to the rear of the target, the restrictions on its use are relatively large, and after switching to semi-active radar guidance, it is possible to use a head-to-head attack, that is, the enemy aircraft can launch an attack in advance before approaching head-on.

It was precisely because of a series of upgrades in fighters and missiles that the Italian Air Force, which still carried out old-fashioned tactics, was completely blown up. In the air battle in the Western Mediterranean, twenty-four Sea Javelins shot down thirty-one D-4s with zero casualties, completely classifying the Phantom fighters into the ranks of obsolete fighters.

Although the air battles that took place over the Spanish island of Mallorca with less than a hundred warplanes are not worth mentioning compared to the scale of the air battles in Sardinia and Sicily. However, the fiasco of the Italian Air Force also reminded Jiang Yunzhi in time that the performance of the advanced fighters of Britain and the United States had begun to catch up with the empire in an all-round way, and even surpassed them in some aspects.

The Mediterranean Sea has become a graveyard for fighter aircraft, but it has also become a breeding ground for new fighter aircraft.

A year ago, you could show off your D-4 ghost in the Mediterranean, but now it is old, and it is difficult to get on the elegant hall.

"The era of fighter planes winning by numbers has passed!" Lieutenant General Long Zhou, commander of the Allied Air Force in the Mediterranean Theater, summed up the battle and made His Majesty nod frequently.

However, after reading the summaries of the battles after several major air battles by many front-line generals, His Majesty's face was not full of sadness, but a smile.

I came but saw the new people laughing, how could I hear the old people crying. Sima Xiangru is worthy of being a great talent, and a slightly ruthless sentence can cover the ancient and modern. It is also very appropriate to put it in World War II, when weapons and equipment are changing with each passing day.

However, if the weapons of great merit cannot meet the needs of war and cannot gain an advantage in the battle with the enemy, then it is natural that they will be eliminated.

The elimination of the D-4 goblin was also expected by His Majesty. This world has completely exceeded Zhong Yi's cognition, you must know that in the previous life, the main fighters of World War II were still based on propeller fighters, such as B-29, and they were still powerful for many years after the war.

But now, even the main fighters in the Korean War have gradually been eliminated, the F-86 Sabre and MiG-15 are already backward models, and the F-102, Vulcan, and B-47 are already flying all over the sky, "Nima, and that F-7, don't you have the impression that F-7 is a seaplane?" And it's the kind that was abandoned with only a few prototypes, how did it suddenly become a tough carrier-based aircraft? ”

But think about it again, when the Douglas Aircraft Company was brought to South China and the F-4, which had occupied the main fighter of the US Navy for many years, was cut off, of course people would use other types of fighters.

Without Douglas's competition, there are many more opportunities for North America and companies such as MacDonald and Kruger in this life, but Boeing, because most of the share of passenger aircraft is occupied by Hanfei, has not received much development. Fortunately, the huge demand for military transport aircraft and large bombers in the United States has allowed Boeing to hold out.

"Hehe, the world is a bit chaotic, but ...... I like it! His Majesty thought of the J-42 Raptors and D-15 Hawk carrier-based aircraft that had begun to be transported to the Mediterranean to participate in the war, and he couldn't help but show a wicked smile. ”

"Yo! Dear Your Majesty, has the front been won again? makes you so happy, even the day Tianlin will call his father, I haven't seen you so happy. ”

After becoming a mother, Concubine Lan, who had a devilish body, came over charmingly with a jade pot as white as mutton fat.

When Zhong Yi heard this, he smiled again, but he didn't say anything! Women, what are you talking about radar guidance and over-the-horizon attacks? Seeing that Hai Ni replaced the herbal tea, she hurriedly took a sip of it, and after reading the documents for a long time, she was really a little thirsty.

"Hey, it doesn't taste right, Heinie, what kind of tea is this? It's so unpleasant! ”

"Huh? Isn't it delicious? Damn Thayer, let him send someone to China to buy the best big red robe, it seems that he was still deceived by others! ”

"Plug ......" Hainie's words, almost choked His Majesty, and asked Thayer to buy tea? Does he divide black tea and green tea? And then ...... "What's the situation?" Why do you have to buy tea? Didn't Wu Hao bring a lot of them last time he came? ”

"It's been a long time gone! Your Majesty, you will reward a few taels for this, and the ...... for a pack of gifts! ”

"Oh!" The bigwigs of the Military Commission, as well as a group of people in the cabinet, all knew that His Majesty's big red robe was the best on the Tianxin Rock of Wuyi Mountain, and over time, everyone was worried about it, and Jiang Yunzhi took a box with him before going to the Mediterranean. For example, the Chinese elderly, such as Prime Minister Zhang Jiajiao, who take pleasure in washing tea and tasting tea, are even more obligatory when they enter the palace. Even Hebar, who only drinks coffee and no tea, took some away from Hainie, saying "Although this thing doesn't taste good, I heard that it's quite expensive!" ”

Wu Hao has come to Nanhua several times, although he has brought the best tea, but he can't resist the wolf with more meat and less meat, and his majesty himself has nothing to drink!

Speaking of the Chinese side, Lao/Chiang was defeated again and again, the Yangtze River did not hold, Sichuan and Shu did not hold, and the Qinling defense line was a joke. Even on Hainan Island, the national/military did not hold on for long, and was forcibly landed by a bunch of wooden-hulled fishing boats and stormed down.

"I can't let go of people who are embarrassed and thrown into the South China Sea."

Zhong Yi also wondered, changing the world but not changing China. Although it was said that it was intentional before, it was later ...... Everything is exactly the same as in the previous life, if it weren't for the fact that there was a Han coastal fleet in the Taiwan Strait separated by Penghu, it is not certain whether Lao/Chiang would be directly hit into the Pacific Ocean.

In Hong Kong and Macao, the People's Liberation Army (PLA) is quite restrained, demarcating the border with the Han army, and occasionally the patrol troops of both sides can get together to produce cigarettes from the Han army. If you want to talk about the welfare of the troops, then the People's Liberation Army and the Han Army are definitely two eras.

Although at the top level, because of the Taiwan incident, the two sides are not very harmonious, but for the soldiers of the two armies, the blood relationship between the same ancestors and the same ancestry, and the blood relationship between siblings is constantly separated, not to mention that the two sides were friendly comrades-in-arms who fought hand in hand before, and even the elder brother was in the Han Army, the younger brother was in the People's Liberation Army, and the bloody episodes of brothers recognizing each other on the battlefield did not rarely happen.

It was not uncommon for large migrations at the beginning of the Han Dynasty to cause this situation. The character of the Han people in their bones always likes to leave one or two children at home when they venture away from home, so that even if they fail to break their "roots" outside.

Although they are connected by blood, in the course of the founding of the republic, the Han army contributed no less. At the beginning, even Pingjin was defeated by the Han army and handed over to the Eighth Route Army, but after the founding of the country, Taizu's attitude towards national unification and internal affairs was much tougher.

"The liberation of Taiwan and the reunification of China are the trend of the times, and no matter how difficult it is, the Chinese people must also do it. If imperialism wants to split China, will the 6 million Chinese People's Liberation Army agree? ”

It is said that the tone of the opposition is different from that after being in power, and hearing such words, Zhong Yi also shook his head and smiled bitterly. Of course, this "imperialism" does not refer to the United States, and it is important to know that in the Taiwan Strait it is not the US Seventh Fleet, but the coastal fleet of the Han Empire.

Moreover, this "imperialism" can be regarded as worthy of its name. In this world, imperialism generally refers specifically to the Han Dynasty, and in Western countries, the word fascist will be added to the end.

Zhong Yi did not intend to explain the arrangements for Taiwan affairs in the future, and the Han Emperor did not have the habit of bowing to others now.

"It is not my will to come from all over the world to worship, and it is your wish to come to the world. But to make the Han Dynasty prosperous, Baiyi Chaohua...... Remembering the present. The wolf in His Majesty's hand hesitated for a moment, and Fang wrote the last three words in one breath.

Or for the sages, or for the heroes. What about Xuande, and what about Mengde? Since ancient times, the Han people have believed that the victor is the prince and the loser is Kou. History is always written by the victor, and Meng De has never been the king in his life, and he is also a traitor! Xuande pretended to be benevolent and righteous, and seized the land of Shu of the same clan to proclaim himself emperor. "The one who exterminates the Han is not someone else, and the surname Liu is also!"

Zhong Yi's face was gloomy, and he suddenly threw the wolf in his hand angrily, staining the vertical letter on the bookcase. It's just that where the ink stains, a few lines are still clearly visible: I hope Your Majesty will return Hong Kong and Macao as soon as possible to fulfill the covenant of the gentlemen of the tea island. Hao has prepared the best red robe of the year, and looks forward to the good news of His Majesty. After the National Day ceremony, His Majesty was invited to go to China again to talk about the prosperous world.

The capital of the Republic is located in Beiping, and the National Day Ceremony will be held on October 1, 1942.

Opinions within the government of the Republic were divided on whether to invite the Han Emperor to participate. For example, the commander-in-chief believed that the Han Emperor was a Chinese ancestor and had made great contributions to the People's Liberation Army and the War of Liberation, and should be invited by the most honored guests.

However, in the political/bureau meeting, Taizu made it clear that our generation has the responsibility of overthrowing the three mountains and the responsibility of the people to turn over and be the master.

Of course, this is purely official language. In private, Taizu clearly said to Wu Hao: "Come on, let him withdraw Penghu's fleet and talk about other things." Also, the supply of tea and other things to Nanhua has stopped, and we are not a small country in his country, so we must pay tribute to the Heavenly Empire! ”
