Just as Bellman feared, just as he was piloting because there was a "Fish in the Air. Thunder became even more unbalanced (the torque of the propellers would have caused the plane to roll to the left), and by the time he had taken control of the plane, and when he finally turned his head, he saw that five of the eight airships had already fallen to the ground on the Blazing Ones.

Bellman stared at the nearest airship, closing in, trying to grab its head before it was shot down. However, just as he aimed at the airship and was about to attack, from the corner of his eye, he suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a "fish in the air. Ray is shooting at himself!

"Damn it!" Bellman can't care about the German airship in front of him now, and no matter how much money he makes, he has to spend it. So he hurriedly pulled the lever violently, and a "Fish in the Air. Thunder "dragged a long flame and swept under his wings. Apparently, there was a stupid guy who fired a salvo at the German airship, and one of them missed the target and flew towards it.

The swift lever allowed Bellman to evade the yawed "Aerial Fish. However, this maneuver, combined with the imbalance of the aircraft's load, put Bellman in another danger, which was spiral flight.

Spiral flight is an extremely dangerous flight state, after entering such a flight state, the aircraft will constantly turn and fall down on its own axis. Because the plane is only spinning in place, the speed in the horizontal direction is relatively small, which makes the various operating surfaces of the aircraft become inefficient, so that the aircraft can hardly rely on its own strength to get out of this state, and finally can only fall headlong.

Of course, through reasonable aerodynamic design and reasonable handling actions, the aircraft is not without the possibility of getting rid of the spiral. Any kind of fighter in the future generation basically has to study the spiral state and conduct relevant test flights to determine under what circumstances the aircraft will enter the spiral and what kind of operation can get the aircraft out of the spiral trap. Some aircraft with special requirements for this even have the characteristic that as long as the pilot gives up all operations, they can automatically get rid of the spiral. For example, the first five of the Red Rabbit Country has such characteristics, so it is especially loved by rookie pilots with limited skills, and has become the aircraft with the largest number of exports from the Red Rabbit Country to the White Eagle Country.

However, these technologies are based on advanced hydrodynamic means, a large number of crashes and wind tunnel tests, and in this era, there are no such things, although in the development of the Sea Breeze fighter, there have been many spiral accidents, but the accumulation of technology in this era is not enough to solve such problems. So, once the Sea Breeze fighter enters the spiral, it is basically impossible not to crash.

"Hell yes!" Bellman scolded. At the same time, he began to work hard to unfasten his seat belt. The MacDonald consortium is still very conscientious, and in the process of developing the fighter, the parachute bag was also developed, and the flight altitude of Bellman's plane is still very high, so he still has a chance to escape.

Bellman unbuckled his seatbelt, climbed out of the cabin, and jumped out in one fell swoop. He didn't pull the parachute bag right away, but let himself free fall for a while to get away from the falling plane, and then pulled the parachute belt, so Bellman immediately arrived and seemed to be pulled violently, and the parachute was opened smoothly.

"God forbid." Bellman said with great sincerity, and assured God in his heart that he would pray honestly every week. Because the parachute in this era is not very reliable, the probability of not opening is definitely not low. For example, if you fold irregularly in your umbrella bag, you will definitely have problems. Therefore, Bellman never asked the ground crew to help him stack his parachute, he couldn't trust these guys, this kind of thing, he had to do it himself to rest assured. But even so, even if there is no problem with the folding of the parachute, there are cases where the parachute cannot be opened, and as for the reason, it is not very clear at the moment, so it can only depend on luck.

In this way, Bellman left a strong mark in the history of aviation, he was the first pilot in the world to achieve air combat results, the first pilot in the world to drop a plane in an air battle, and the first pilot in the world to successfully parachute in an air battle.

Eight Zeppelins were shot down at one time and one aircraft was lost, and the British were very happy with such a result. So they opened a new order.

It has been said that "an arms dealer who does not buy weapons to attack his own country is not a real international arms dealer". The MacDonald consortium has always despised and opposed such undisciplined and bottomless bizarre theories. At least, verbally. However, refusing to sell weapons to both sides of the conflict at the same time is also clearly contrary to the principle of "free trade". Moreover, the simultaneous sale of weapons to both sides of the conflict can also serve to maintain the balance of power, so that both sides of the conflict realize that they cannot solve the problem by force, which will inevitably contribute to the eventual achievement of peace. So in the spirit of pacifism, Donald was dealing with the Germans in addition to the British and the French during this time.

Nowadays, Germany's route to the United States has been completely cut off, so it is almost impossible to sell weapons and materials on a large scale, but since the United States is still "neutral", then all kinds of buying and selling can still be done. For example, there is no problem with technical cooperation or anything.

After the victory over the airship with the imported "Sea Breeze" fighters, the British placed a new order and at the same time put some of these aircraft on the French front line to carry out the mission of ground attack. The appearance of these aircraft posed a great threat to the Germans, especially the German artillery. In just one week, the British put in more than 20 "Sea Breeze" fighters on the front line, destroyed five or six German artillery positions, and also attacked a German military column, causing it to capsize.

Although constrained by the number of aircraft, and more importantly, the shortage of pilots, which had not yet brought decisive changes to the front, the Germans learned through their intelligence system that the British were opening more pilot schools in order to train more pilots, and that they had also introduced relevant production lines and were preparing to start producing their own aircraft. And his allies, the French, are doing the same.

The Germans had to equip each artillery position with anti-aircraft machine-gun units, but they realized that even this would not necessarily solve the problem, because the range of the machine guns was too close, and the British could quite have used that kind of "air fish. "Ray" attacks from outside the range of the machine gun, although the accuracy of this thing is very problematic, and it is not uncommon for it to fly around, even after firing it. But if a large group of British planes flew over and scattered this thing, the damage would still be considerable.

Therefore, the Germans also came to the door, hoping to buy these key military technologies from the United States.

"As you know, Mr. Hagen, we have a long history of friendly cooperation with your country. So, business matters are completely negotiable. But we want to know, what are you going to pay us for? Donald asked.

Donald's meaning is actually very clear, that is, he will never accept the Reichsmark of the Germans. You can buy and sell, but use hard currency, which is gold. But Donald also doubted how much gold the Germans still had in their hands. Because the war has been going on for so long, the hard currency of the Germans should have been consumed quite a bit. And the volume and price of that recent rubber sale are quite substantial. Recently, however, I heard that the Germans had bought a batch of weapons for the Turks, and perhaps with this deal, the Germans would be able to get some more gold.

"We can pay for it in gold. In addition, it is possible to pay with gems and artwork. The German guy sitting opposite Donald replied quite calmly, and this answer confirmed Donald's guess to a certain extent.

"The value of gemstones is hard to estimate, and the same is true of art." Donald said, "How to convert it still needs to be discussed by both of us." Of course, this is just a small matter, and it is completely up to the people below to discuss. In addition, the amount of these things should not exceed 15% of the total amount, what do you think of this limit? ”

"Can you increase that limit to 25 percent?" Hagen asked.

"That's too high." "You know, gems and works of art look valuable, but their value fluctuates so much that when you need to monetize them in large quantities, they can fall into a mess all of a sudden," Donald said. Of course, I made up our friendship, and in order to show our sincerity, if there was something really valuable, after the evaluation of our experts, I agreed to break through the limit of fifteen percent. But the breakthrough part of the thing must be able to be recognized by our experts. ”

The meaning of Donald's statement is clear, that is, MacDonald can accept this kind of deal, but the assessment of the value of these things must be entirely up to MacDonald's people.

"Well, in principle, so be it." Hagen also knew that it was a seller's market and that the Germans had to make a little concession on this issue. Anyway, gems and works of art are not worth much at this time, and it is cost-effective to be able to use these things to top up some more gold, and as for the future, if this battle is won, this loss is nothing, and if the battle is lost, then this loss is even more nothing.

"I think we can trade in Switzerland or some other neutral country." Donald said.

Speaking of which, Switzerland is indeed a very interesting country, whether it is the First World War or the Second World War, they have managed to maintain neutrality, and they have been a neutral country without being affected by the war. One of the big reasons for this is that the warring countries need to do something like this in Switzerland.

"Actually, we also have technology that is more suitable for air combat, air combat technology specifically for aircraft, maybe you will also be interested." Donald smiled, revealing eight snow-white teeth.
