Three signal flares suddenly rose, tens of thousands of people on the city wall immediately widened their eyes, one by one staring closely at the demonstration field not far away as a target, the dull thunder sounded in the distance, and then the piercing whistling sound pierced the sky, and in an instant the entire demonstration field was submerged in a firelight, the tsunami-like explosion made the ancient city wall tremble, and the huge power of the 152 mm heavy cannon leveled all the arrangements on the demonstration field almost at one time.

"This is our 152-mm self-propelled guns with a maximum range of more than twenty kilometers, of course, due to the limitations of the site, it is impossible for us to shoot here from twenty kilometers away, in fact they are now five kilometers away." Yang Feng's triumphant voice came from the loudspeaker on the top of the city tower.

The shelling lasted for a few minutes, and sixteen 2C3 fired hundreds of cannons at the fastest speed, and after the smoke cleared, I saw that the dirt slope had been basically wiped out, and the terrifying power made the city wall amazed, especially for the first time to see this kind of scene, a fat man beside Jiang Xiaoxian whispered with a little pale face: "This thing is so powerful?" ”

Jiang Xiaoxian said lightly: "Teacher, the ordinary shell is more expensive than an original Mauser, and it is a special extended-range shell that hits 20 kilometers, and the price Yang Feng sells to the British is a shell for a warhead and other heavy gold." ”

The fat man choked on a mouthful of water into his nose and coughed violently with a flushed face.

Yang Feng's voice sounded again in the loudspeaker: "What will be shown below is light artillery shooting, including American-made 75-mm howitzers and domestically produced 150-mm mortars." ”

The shock of these two types of artillery is much smaller, but the feeling for the audience is still very strong, because they are displayed in the line of sight, the two types of artillery are pulled directly to the root of the city wall, and the mortars are even inside the city wall, listening to the dense sound of cannon ejection in front and back. A lot of the timid ones are already starting to tremble.

Yang Feng is even more defeated in this regard, anyway, such shells are not worth much, this goods let the artillery fight for nearly ten minutes, and ravaged the ears of all the spectators before stopping.

As the artillery fire was about to end, the infantry charge was supposed to be, but the spectators did not wait for the soldiers with their bayonet rifles. Instead, there were hundreds of Wranglers with large-caliber machine guns, and among these Wranglers there were ten strange chariots, and there were actually four small-caliber guns on them.

This fully mechanized infantry team, roaring at a speed of more than 50 kilometers per hour, did not rush to the preset target, but changed formation at a distance of 500 meters from the target, and the ten chariots lined up, and then a short buzz was heard in the ears of the spectators, and the target in front was instantly covered by an exploding fire.

"Why isn't there a cannon shot?" The fat man asked Jiang Xiaoxian in surprise.

"That beep just now is. The rate of fire was so fast that all the guns were ejected in a row, and our ears could no longer distinguish them, and at that moment, these ten 23-mm self-propelled anti-aircraft guns fired at least more than a thousand shells, which is a kind of artillery that is faster than the rate of fire of machine guns. Jiang Xiaoxian said expressionlessly, Yang Feng's Shilka River came back and he went to visit. I even reported it to the bald guy, but I heard about the terrifying rate of fire. The bald guy directly dismissed the idea of buying.

"This is a self-propelled anti-aircraft gun, of course, it is also very good to attack ground targets when there is no aircraft to hit, the fastest rate of fire of a single tube can reach 1,000 rounds per minute, you can choose a single tube or a double tube, and four tubes can be used, and the theoretical rate of fire is 3,400 rounds per minute." Yang Feng explained to the audience with a smile.

The number shook my jaw. Artillery, which is faster than the rate of fire of machine guns, this goods has not let people live, and many envoys from various countries sitting on the visiting table have begun to think about their own brains, and the more Mijiro Umezu looks at it, the paler his face becomes. He knew very well that if he really fought, Yang Feng would not need to use these ten self-propelled guns alone to destroy his own people in Haiguang Temple.

Just as the Shilka River was firing, hundreds of Wranglers lined up horizontally in a sparse arc, and the vehicle-mounted machine gunners, under the cover of bulletproof shields, began to strafe the target with M2 machine guns, and the entire convoy took a short stop and burst fire, shooting while moving forward, and then turned around and walked again when it was out of range, self-propelled anti-aircraft guns and howitzers and mortars on the rear positions provided uninterrupted fire strikes.

"Ma, who can resist this, they don't need to charge with this firepower, if I have a brigade defending on the opposite side, there are few people now, these cars will go one more round and turn around and drive up." The fat man muttered to himself there with a pale face.

"Teacher, how many people do you say it takes to eat such a teacher?" Jiang Xiaoxian asked quietly.

"If they have a safe rear, and then fight with such strength and a short assault, then no one will be able to eat them, if they simply use the siege method when they have no rear supplies, then prepare a hundred thousand lives in exchange!" The fat man said with emotion.

He exaggerated a little, in fact, he still didn't add a sentence, and if they ran out of gas, if they had enough fuel, then no one could stop them, and since they couldn't stop it, let alone any siege.

Yang Feng's firepower demonstration is not over, the next thing is the air defense demonstration, now he has hundreds of double 37 mm anti-aircraft guns in his hands, these anti-aircraft guns are not only in the name of the security division, there are only 40 under the name of the security division, and the remaining 60 are in the hands of the two civil defense teams in Tianjin and Beiping, these civil defense teams do not belong to Yang Feng, but are formed in the name of the governments of the two places, and are supported by the businessmen of the two places.

Of course, given Yang Feng's status as a leader in the business community and the fact that the ammunition was supplied by his arsenal, the two civil defense forces were no different from his own.

Forty twin 37-mm anti-aircraft guns were arranged on all sides outside the city of Beiping in groups of ten, while the 30 anti-aircraft guns of the civil defense team were divided into three groups and arranged at three points on the city wall, forming a set of firepower networks that could complement each other.

Soon more than a dozen Hawk fighters in the northern sky appeared like flying kites and dragging targets, and when they flew close to Beiping City, they quickly dispersed and attacked from all sides at the same time, followed by the sound of anti-aircraft guns everywhere, and it was not long before they were in a cloud of exploding smoke. One target after another was torn apart by artillery shells, but a fighter plane that had been deliberately spared still flew over Beiping, but then the self-propelled anti-aircraft guns that were maneuverably arranged opened fire, and the targets behind the plane were instantly torn apart.

At this point, Yang Feng's firepower demonstration was over, and all the audience on the city wall received an extremely profound education. This can be seen from the ugly face of Commander Umezu, not only is his face more ugly, but many people in the Zhongyang military system have ugly faces, as for those ordinary citizens of Beiping, they are all proud, after all, this is the first armed force of their own in Beiping, and they can have such a strong combat effectiveness, of course, they are very proud.

"Brother Xiao Jian, who is this?" Yang Feng looked at the fat man beside Jiang Xiaoxian a little puzzled and asked.

"This is also my teacher. Chairman Liu of Henan Province. Jiang Xiaoxian said with a smile.

"Oh, I'm glad to be lucky, I heard Chairman Liu's name early, and he has been invincible all the way from Guangdong, and he has conquered everything, which is really admirable." Yang Feng hurriedly took Liu Zhi's hand with a warm face and said, while complimenting this guy, he sighed that people will change, from the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains. and then to the long-legged general of the Anti-Japanese War, and then to the long-defeated general. This product is also a legend.

Liu Zhi only greeted him slightly, he didn't have any good intentions when he came, the bald guy asked him to come to Beiping to see if the Zhongyang army raided Beiping, and then forcibly disarmed the security division, then it would be possible to do it. However, Liu Zhi understands that as long as Yang Feng dares to resist, it will be to put together the entire Zhongyang army in North China, and it is estimated that there is no drama, to be honest, he thinks that Yang Feng has already lost face if he does not disarm Guan Linzheng and Zheng Dongguo.

However, it can be seen from this firepower demonstration. Yang Feng doesn't have too complicated thoughts, because with the money-burning method of his army, I'm afraid it is impossible to afford it, that is to say, he just wants to protect himself, which is a completely understandable approach, whoever has such a big business will not not get some arms to protect himself.

Of course, Yang Feng didn't know what Liu Zhi was thinking, and after the firepower demonstration, he quietly gathered with the princes who came to visit, and this time several army commanders from Pingjin all arrived.

"Brother Wei Jiu must have told everyone what his brother thought, and to be honest, Wu Tiecheng has made a special trip to me to ask me to sell the plane to Nanjing, but I haven't agreed yet.

None of our brothers are outsiders, so I'll make it clear! I Yang Feng has only one goal, that is, to block the Japanese on the Great Wall line, whether I build a security division or build an airline, they are all preparing for this purpose, but after Nanjing gets these planes, they will definitely not leave them in Beiping, so I can't hand over these planes under any circumstances.

What I mean is that you will set up a separate air force in your respective armies, and then lease these planes, so that you can justifiably leave the planes in Beiping, as for your needs in the future, I will naturally not sit idly by, and I must explain that what I really care about is not these planes, but that I will continue to add new planes in the future, and I will at least prepare more than 200 combat planes for the defense of Pingjin, including fighters, bombers, and even torpedo attack planes, and when you fight again in the future, I can guarantee that there will not be another Japanese plane that will harass you. Yang Feng said.

This passage made several warlords gasp at the same time, since their joint statement, the bald guy did send someone to appease them, promising that after the air force bought the fighter in Yang Feng's hands, he would continue to stay in Beiping to provide them with protection, although they didn't believe it, but they also wavered a little, but now when they heard Yang Feng's words, they couldn't be shaken no matter what.

In fact, they are very aware of the current situation in Pingjin, which is gradually moving towards semi-establishment, but this is also what they are looking forward to, Song Zheyuan and Sun Dianying have made a good example, the two of them rely on Yang Feng's help in the barren Chahar, and their lives can be said to be prosperous.

They can get started, why can't we?

This problem has been tormented in the hearts of Yu Xuezhong, He Zhuguo, Shang Zhen, and Pang Bingxun, it can be said that they are scratching their hearts with a hundred claws, and the territory of the great Lu is in their own hands, and now Pingjin is so rich, not to mention raising their four armies, it is more than enough to raise four more armies, but what do they have to honestly wait for the bald guy to send the little military salary left?

Yu Xuezhong is better, anyway, he is the chairman of Hebei Province, although he is not a prince like Han Fuyu, but there is always a way to get money, not only to support himself but also to help He Zhuguo. But Shang Zhen and Pang Bingxun can't.

Although Shang Zhen broke away from the Jin army and switched to the bald guy, he was also a miscellaneous card after all, and he used to be good at winning him over, but in the past two years, his situation has deteriorated, and he has basically returned to the treatment that a miscellaneous card deserves, but fortunately, Fu Zuoyi can always help him with his old feelings. But Pang Bingxun is completely finished.

Although he is now an army, but in fact there is only one division that is not satisfied, it would be good if the bald guy could get half of the military salary he gave, plus he offended the old department of the Northwest Army and no one helped him, and he can support the current people and horses all depends on his deep relationship with his subordinates, and the brothers can't bear to leave him, otherwise it would be better to go to Song Zheyuan or Han Fuyu to eat and drink spicy food.

So he can't wait to hug Yang Feng's thighs now.

"Brother Yang, this is a trivial matter, let's do whatever you say!" He immediately patted his chest and said.

"Brother Chen. The little brother thanked me first, and when I turned around, I asked people to prepare 200,000 yuan, which was considered to be the wine I bought for the brothers of the 40th Army, and if there are any difficulties in the future, just ask, and I have a new batch of Mauser guns here, and you will bring 5,000 guns when you leave, but it is not for nothing that you can just give me the old guns that have been replaced, and send you another 500,000 rounds of ammunition. 150 mortars will also send you twenty, and the shells will be returned with two thousand first. Yang Feng immediately said generously.

Pang Bingxun was so happy that he almost fainted. This headband is worth it, and the money, guns, and cannons are all there.

The other three couldn't sit still.

"Brother Yang, your business is my business, everything is according to what you said, whoever wants to get your planes again, you let him ask our 20,000 brothers of the 32nd Army." Shang Zhen followed and said.

Next He Zhuguo. Yu Xuezhong expressed his position one after another.

"All of them, all of them, according to the standards of the 40th Army, one for each family." Yang Feng said with a smile.

The sensational effect of the Beiping firepower demonstration was not over, and this cargo dropped another bombshell. Jinyuan Airlines, which has a thriving business, decided to close down in response to the call of the Chinese government to nationalize aviation. Although their plane is directly one notch behind Jinyuan, and they have to fly to several airports in Shanghai.

This news caused an uproar in Pingjin and Tianjin, especially those wealthy businessmen who need to travel frequently between the north and the south because of business, which means that if they go to Shanghai in the future, they can only take the train.

"This brother really can't help it, the Zhongyang government doesn't let private airlines run airlines, so what else can I do." Yang Feng said to the wealthy businessmen who came to consult with a helpless expression.

"Then they don't care about the one opened by the Japanese in Tianjin." One by one, these wealthy businessmen said indignantly that North China Airlines, which was jointly run by the Japanese and traitors in Tianjin, should also be regarded as a private company, but the Japanese would not take care of the bald guys.

"Alas, isn't this what our country is like!" Yang Feng said with a sigh.

Yang Feng immediately posted an advertisement that a public auction would be held at Jinyuan Company to auction ten Junkers JU52s owned by Jinyuan Airlines, and interested buyers were welcome to come and participate.

Nanjing made him a little confused, if he didn't let private airlines open, then who else would buy them except AVIC and Eurasia? Could it be that this guy wants to sell to Chen Jitang or Li Zongren?

On the day of the auction, Zhu Jiahua, Minister of Communications, rushed to Beiping in person, but he was stunned when he went to the auction venue, and he expected that the auction would be full of people, and he was sitting there waiting to buy, and none of them had an aviation business, and when he saw Yang Feng's father-in-law also sitting there with a smile, he immediately understood that he was pitted by Yang Feng.

"Liu Gong, what are you buying a plane for?" He asked Liu Haining cautiously.

"Use it yourself! Wouldn't it be convenient to go out or something if you go far away! The Nationalist Government doesn't seem to say that private individuals are not allowed to buy airplanes, right? Liu Haining said with a smile.

"You're all here to buy planes for your own use!" Zhu Jiahua asked the old guys around him in disbelief.

"That's right, you see that a plane is only one million fiat currency when it reaches the sky, how convenient it is for us to buy it for our own use!" A bunch of old fellows replied with a smile.

Zhu Jiahua's eyes were dark, he was still playing with a fart, this was all Yang Feng's group, saying that he would buy it and definitely Yang Feng would not ask them for a penny, and no matter how much money he paid, they would be higher than him, he now finally understood what Yang Feng was so good at talking, tossing around in the end he was just changing his skin, how the plane should fly and how to fly!

Zhu Jiahua didn't bother to watch these guys perform, so he brushed his sleeves away, and Zhou Zhirou, a member of the Aviation Committee, also brushed his sleeves away, he came to Yang Feng to negotiate the purchase of those fighters.

However, Yang Feng told him with a pure face that his fighters already had masters.

"Who bought it?" Zhou Zhirou became nervous all of a sudden, don't be bought by Chen Jitang.

"No, I didn't sell it to anyone, I rented it out!" Yang Feng said with a smile.

"Rent?!" Zhou Zhirou was stunned.

"Yes, rental!" Yang Feng repeated.

"Rent it to?" Zhou Zhirou asked suspiciously.

"Many people, General Yu Xuezhong rented four, General He Zhuguo rented four, Shang Zhen and General Pang Bingxun rented four, General Fu Zuoyi rented six, and the remaining eleven were six for General Song Zheyuan and five for General Sun Dianying.

You also know that they are all on the front line, and they have to face direct pressure from the Japanese, and the air force has no planes in North China, so they have to rent them from me, and it will be convenient to reconnoiter the enemy situation in the future, and if necessary, they will expel the Japanese planes or something. Yang Feng said with a smile.

"Where do they get pilots, where do they park their planes, and who will maintain them?" Zhou Zhirou gritted her teeth and asked.

"Just stop at Nanyuan Airport! Anyway, it's useless for me to stay in such a big place, so I even have pilots at the airport and ground staff to lease them all. Yang Feng said with a pure face. (To be continued......)
