Chapter 415 Fighter-Bombers

"The easiest way is to close Liaodong Bay directly, but then the coastal residents will be affected, and the port will be better, at most let the merchant ships entering and leaving Yingkou and Qinhuangdao port go to Tianjin port, and then the government will provide them with subsidies, but what about the fishermen? This is an important fishing ground, and they must not be forbidden to go to the sea to fish, if they are allowed to go to the sea, then it is easy to get into the spies. Yuan Shikai said that this issue must be considered, and the European powers are very close to China's new technology.

"Don't be so troublesome, just wait until the coastal freeze in this area in winter to train, and then let the Beiyang Fleet clear the field at sea, and the shore will be blocked by sea ice, so you don't have to worry about ships going into the water." Zheng Qinglian said.

This method is indeed feasible, and when the time comes, it is only necessary to issue a no-sail order, and say that the Beiyang Fleet military exercise prohibits ships from the connection from Lushunkou to Qinhuangdao, and then puts a small warship blockade such as destroyers, torpedo boats, and gunboats on the sea, and these battleships and aircraft carriers can train in it, and the sea ice range is at most the near shore area, and as for those ice floes, you can completely ignore it.

This will not have any impact on the coastal residents at all, their ports have been closed, both merchant ships and fishing boats can not go to sea, the only thing that needs to be guarded against is those foreign spies, but this only needs to strengthen patrols on the periphery, the Beiyang Fleet has a large number of small warships, this work is easy for them.

And this sea area is also enough, usually the sea ice range in this area accounts for up to half of the sea area, and from Lushunkou to Qinhuangdao or further south, this sea area accounts for almost half of the Bohai Sea, 3 to 40,000 square kilometers of the remaining half of the nearly 20,000 square kilometers, and all of them are deep water areas, enough for these warships to train.

With this out of the way, there's nothing left to worry about, just wait for them to finish. After three years at most, Yang Feng can see his fleet galloping across the sea as a sea hegemon.

Of course, before that, he still needs to solve the problem of the plane, which is very simple.

When returning to Beijing from Dalian, the Austrian Empress who was accompanied by Lin Luoke to appreciate China's great rivers and mountains had arrived in Beijing, although she could not appreciate the demeanor of her youth, but Emperor Yang still greeted the old empress with great enthusiasm, and in a row for half a month, not only arranged a large number of visits for her, but also personally accompanied her to visit the Great Wall. It is now autumn, look at the autumn colors of the mountains, fully demonstrate the hospitality of the Chinese people.

After all, when it comes to the beauty of natural scenery, there are indeed few places that can compare with China, especially compared to Europe at this time, China's industrialization has just begun, and there are still places that have not been poisoned by industrial pollution. Especially in the relatively backward inland areas, it is a real beautiful mountain and water, shocking beauty, plus Chinese food and all kinds of strange folk customs. Rare birds and beasts directly made the queen a little happy.

"Elizabeth, if you like, can stay in China for a few more years. There are enough views here for you to enjoy. Standing on the Great Wall, Yang Feng said to her with a smile.

"Your Majesty, although I would love to continue to feel her beauty in this beautiful country, as Empress of Austria and Queen of Hungary. I have to go back, the clouds of war are looming in Europe, I have to go back and work for peace there, I have been to the battlefield myself, that bloody scene will never be forgotten, I don't want the whole of Europe to struggle in blood, especially my country. The Empress of Austria said.

"Well, that's a pity, in fact I've been working for peace in Europe, and you know that the last time there was tension between Britain and Germany, I didn't even hesitate to impose a diesel embargo on them, but now I can't do anything about it, they have already got everything they need, and they don't care about this kind of means." Yang Feng said shamelessly, but so far, on the surface, he is indeed trying to prevent the war, at least in Europe, the vast majority of people think so.

After all, if it weren't for the visit of the Great White Fleet, Europe at this time would most likely have already started fighting, of course, the longer the arms race between the two sides drags on, the larger the scale will be once the fight starts, which is difficult for ordinary people to understand, including a queen like Princess Sissi, who lacks political experience, also did not see the evil intentions he harbored.

The empress stayed in Beijing for a month, then continued by train to North Korea, accompanied by Lin Luoke, when she would board a cruise ship arranged for her by Yang Feng in Busan and return to Europe, accompanied by a pair of giant pandas and a pair of red pandas representing the friendship of the Chinese people, which have now become Yang Feng's most important means of expressing friendship with European royalty.

As for the mission on the shoulders of this empress, Emperor Yang is directly disdainful, as far as her little energy, the impact on the situation in Europe is not even a drop in the bucket, at most it is a small drop, not to mention that although she herself is the Empress of Austria, she is not very popular in Vienna, and the Austrian nobles have always been very dissatisfied with her special feelings for Hungary.

Sending off the Empress of Austria, Yang Feng immediately went to Xi'an, at this time his imitation Hawker III fighter has been completed, although the original version is used as a land-based fighter in China, but in the US military it is actually used as a carrier-based aircraft, including the design of the target is also a carrier-based fighter-bomber, so although it is not a folding wing, but Emperor Yang does not care about the problem of its use on aircraft carriers, his aircraft carrier lifts are equipped for Panda-class fighters, such a small aircraft is more than enough whether it is a hangar or a lift.

As for the performance of this aircraft, there is not much to say, in the original history it was just a very inconspicuous low-end goods, but in this era, it is equivalent to the F22 breaking into the Vietnam War.

Looking at the small biplane flying in the sky, Emperor Yang also had a feeling of reminiscence, the reason why he built such an aircraft in addition to the simple structure and easy to manufacture, a lot of time was to find a feeling, after all, he used this thing for a long time in the time and space of the Republic of China.

"Your Majesty, would you like to perform a ground attack?" Wang Chaozong, manager of the Kunpeng Aircraft Manufacturing Company next to him, said that these planes do not belong to the military at present, but are still owned by the aircraft factory, because there is no need for a separate air force at present, so Yang Feng only set up an aviation team under the War Department and the Navy Department, and both the Army and Navy will use this kind of aircraft in the future.

In fact, whether in the army or the navy, those generals' expectations for this aircraft are not its air combat capability at all, think about it to know that in the current aircraft speed is still stuck at more than 100 kilometers, what does an aircraft with a speed of more than 360 kilometers per hour mean in air combat, that is completely unilateral crushing, there is no need to care about it at all.

For them, what they are most looking forward to is its ability to attack the ground or sea, although a two-hundred-kilogram bomb is less, but if it can really be thrown from the sky onto the battleship, then the aircraft carrier victory theory that Emperor Yang has been playing up is really possible.

In terms of army use, the power of four 50-kilogram bombs is also worth looking forward to.

"Let's put on a show, then!" Yang Feng said very casually, he had even played with scud washing, so he naturally didn't have much interest in this kind of primitive air strike, but it was okay to satisfy the generals of the navy and army around him.

Of course, you can't perform in Yanliang, with the economic development of Xi'an, the number of foreigners at this time is also a lot, and there are even Kunpeng aircraft manufacturing companies that come to stare at Yan Liang, after the test flight of this fighter named Flying Eagle, the number of foreigners who come here to stare at is even more, and the news that Yang Feng has built a new plane has already been in European newspapers.

However, at this time, the aircraft is still just a toy in the minds of the generals of various countries, and the aircraft was originally invented by Yang Feng, and it is not strange that he is walking in front of the world, and there are also a large number of aviation enthusiasts in various countries who are competing to make aircraft, so it only caused a small range of attention, and did not make too many waves.

But if this kind of small toy can drop bombs at the level of battleship main gun shells from the sky, it will definitely frighten many people, and Yang Feng doesn't want this effect for the time being.

The bombing was selected in a barren ravine far away from the base, before the bombing, people were specially sent to build a fortress on the ground, made of reinforced concrete, according to the standard that it can withstand the heavy artillery bombardment of the army, and after the completion of the project, Emperor Yang personally led a group of generals to go over, and cleared the field with a regiment of troops around, and then the first batch of ten Flying Eagle fighter-bombers made by the Yanliang base half with 50 kg bombs, and the other half with 200 kg bombs flew to the test site.

Before this, all the pilots had already studied the dive bombing textbook provided by Emperor Yang, and had also carried out bombing simulations at the test flight base, but this was the first time that they actually dropped bombs on the ground.

But even for the first time, the bombing effect stunned the generals, the first bomb-throwing eagle did not hit the target directly, but the two-hundred-kilogram bomb fell less than thirty meters away from the fortress, and the terrifying power instantly toppled the hastily built fortress, and then the second bombing eagle threw four fifty-kilogram bombs all around the wreckage of the fortress, one of which was almost a direct hit, after this round of bombing, the fortress was no longer found on the ground.
