Chapter 860 Air Raid Preparations
Zuo Boyang knew about Paris and London, and he smiled after hearing it: "Captain, you can't stop the car after robbing the Bank of Japan in Harbin, and the concession is close behind, so you have to go out of the country, and you also said that Xing Yuan is a bandit leader, and you are much more powerful than Xing Yuan." ”
"Don't grab anything to feed these troops......"
Dong Ku helplessly stalled his hands.
He pretended to be poor, but Zuo Boyang knew that it was true that the Bank of Japan that robbed Haierbin was short of money at that time, all industries were in their infancy, and the expenses of the troops had not yet been sourced, but there was no shortage of money in the gun concession, and Shao Pang began to have a surplus, and the expenses of the troops could not be used at all. He could already see from Dong Ku's collection of antique gifts in the concession, Dong Ku didn't play with it after receiving it, he didn't like it at all, but just to collect it. It's the same for this robbery of Paris, the target is actually the museum there, and the bank is secondary, presumably to rob the cultural relics there.
He didn't know why Dong Ku had this complex, but he understood that these treasures were plundered by the powers, and what Dong Ku did at this time was just to take them back.
"Captain, there is the national reserve, and the water girl's bank is about to open, is it okay to ......?"
"Reserves?"
Dong Ku's eyes lit up. He understood what Zuo Boyang meant, robbed the bank reserves of France and Britain, it would be a disaster, no one would ask for their paper money, there was no need to fight this battle, and France and Britain would not be able to continue.
"Five, generate electricity for Shui Linglong!"
Understand, where will Dong Ku let the war end so quickly? However, it is not possible to give up the robbery plan, and the only way to follow up is to follow up on it, supplement and improve the plan, and use the opening of the Eurasian Development Bank to plug the financial holes of Britain and France.
He also sent electricity to Shao Pang, so that the extractors who had already infiltrated South Africa and North Africa to open mines intercepted the gold plundered by the British in South Africa. Take them all and cut off his source of gold.
After sending the message, Dong Ku glanced at Zuo Boyang and shook his head and said, "Where do you look like a master?" The idea he came up with was simply vicious, haha! ”
Regarding Dong Ku's evaluation, Zuo Boyang shrugged and was noncommittal. In his opinion. Dong Ku is drawing salary from the bottom of the kettle, and it is even more vicious.
However, he thinks that the means of war are used to the extreme, what is vicious or not, as long as it does not provoke the anger of the heavens, everything is a trivial matter.
As Dong Ku expected, the next day, Norway announced its surrender and was occupied by Germany. And the Germans. Quickly march westward, go straight to the Netherlands, and send a large army to contain the main French army on the Maginot Line, and the big battle will break out in two days at most.
Shui Linglong originally planned to open in a week, but after receiving a telegram from Dong Ku, he announced the opening of the bank the next day, opening the door that had been closed. Started the banking business, and made the idea of filling the hole for Dong Kuji.
At this time. Germany's attack on the Netherlands had not yet been discovered by the Anglo-French forces, and the French elite army had not moved to Belgium on the Maginot Line.
Paricino received a call from Iron Arhat in the early hours of the morning. Departure to the island of Plaue. Before noon, they arrived at the already heavily guarded island of Pulaue.
His eyes lit up when he saw two huge aircraft bodies and the wings piled up next to them in the small valley on the island, which was only about two kilometers in diameter.
As for the two armored vehicles and the two tanks that were exactly the same as the Tiger they produced, he simply ignored them.
Although the weight of the tank is also 56 tons. But compared to the main body of the aircraft that is nearly 30 meters long, the weight is no longer a problem.
How did they ship such a huge thing?
But he didn't see any signs of take-off and landing around, and although the ground had been cleared of weeds and compacted with fine stones, it was absolutely impossible to take off and land large transport planes. Besides, what transport aircraft is capable of transporting such a huge airframe?
Tie Luohan did not give him time to think, and said directly: "Mr. Paricino, this is the reason for our cooperation to continue, for this reason, we did not come by plane, but brought here, just to let your country see that our promise will be fulfilled and ensure the smooth flow of this supply line." ”
"It's unbelievable that you have such a strong transportation capacity!"
Paricino did not hide his surprise at all.
"Mr. Paricino, for the convenience of transportation and the trouble of lifting, we have laid the bottom of the floor, as long as the truck gets in, it can be transported out of the island, and besides, you only have one day to assemble, the Marshaw airfield, I have seen, can barely take off, and the landing must be the big airport in Berlin or Hamburg. Tomorrow night, I would like to see an air raid, and this modified plane will follow your Stuka and carry out the bombing, bring your technicians, you can bring three, and I will send the pilots of the advance force to assist, they are already here. You know, we don't have fighters. ”
"Mr. Tie, you are so merciful, even the pilot has prepared it for us!"
Any other ideas in Parisino? He hurriedly ordered his lieutenant to contact Marshaw's convoy to bring away the tanks, armored vehicles, some bombs, and, of course, most importantly, the huge plane.
After the plane arrived at Marshaw, the personnel of Tie Luohan's entourage quickly assembled the plane after martial law at the airport, and assembled the modified Stukka, a strategic bomber imitating the B29 part overnight, so that it could be lifted into the air for testing at dawn, and after adapting to several takeoffs and landings, they would participate in the bombing tomorrow night, so that Germany could see what a strategic bomber was.
Germany's air power in the previous time and space was weak, although the technology was ahead and the concept was even more advanced, but because of the fuel relationship, most of the airfields were destroyed, resulting in the loss of air supremacy, and the air force was annihilated in the air power of the Allies.
They only had a modified version of the Stuka much after the start of the war, but it was only an increase in the load and could carry a bomb weighing 1,800 kilograms, where could it be compared with this large bomber with a range of more than 4,500 kilometers and a weight of nearly nine tons?
In fact, this is a bomber that Dong Ku has continuously modified and developed, but it has never had the opportunity to use it in the war against Japan, and the Japanese army cannot stop it on the ground, so there is no need to waste fuel and bombs, which has also led to the continuous improvement of the aircraft's endurance from more than 3,000 kilometers to the current level of more than 4,500 kilometers, but not a single live ammunition has been dropped on the battlefield.
Originally, Dong Ku was going to give the German improved Stuka. A test aircraft with a load of 2,400 kilograms and a range of 1,200 kilometers was later decided to sell this model that it would not use, in the name of a Stuka modification, to Germany. Of course, forty-six test planes were produced. Germany will pay for it all, and then order 500 of them, and will get the technology of this aircraft.
Dong Ku knew very well that Germany was weak in air and weak in sea. He does not support Germany in the sea and cannot control it after avoiding the most difficult situation, but he will spare no effort in the air power, and he is absolutely sure that he will give a thunderous blow when the opponent is about to lose control. Guarantee that Germany will not slaughter the world.
This strategic bomber has not yet been finalized, it combines the respective advantages of the B17 and B29, fast speed, long range, and a load of nine tons, which is the most lacking strategic horizontal bomber in Germany. Germany's preference for Tuska left this strategic bomber with no room for development, but Dong Kuzhi said. Germany lacked such long-range strategic bombers, especially with the Flamingo, which had a range of three thousand kilometers. That is, the escort of the Zero type, and Germany needs strategic bombers with long-range strike capabilities even more.
He let this large bomber, which is currently leading all countries in the world, appear in Germany, which is to let Germany maintain air superiority after the war, overwhelm Britain and France, make them attack more urgently, and let the surrounding countries quickly throw themselves into the arms of Germany. Change the situation of World War II with more fighting less.
As for the radar and communication systems on the planes, he asked the technical department to install the kind of walkie-talkies that are already in use in various countries, and the call system is clearly coded.
The guns on the aircraft were of 25 caliber, with their own German heavy machine guns on the roof and tail, with only minor improvements. The heat resistance and heat dissipation of the barrel are more reasonable, and it is able to shoot for a long time.
Lao Xi was also surprised when he learned that the weapons company had actually transported a giant plane with a body of more than 30 meters. Doesn't this mean that if the other party wants to bomb himself, he still doesn't know what to do?
Several confidants and generals who knew about this matter were also secretly frightened. Not to mention that the other party has such a large delivery capacity, it is still quiet. This ability is not available in the empire. The most important thing is that they still don't know where the production base and R&D base of the Ludao Weapons Company are, which is the most terrifying.
But they also understood that the arms companies were clearly fully supporting them, and aimed at fighting Britain and France. This is also the reason why Lao Xi did not sign an offensive and defensive alliance agreement with Japan after the war. Lao Xi didn't want to offend the arms company because of the advance army. This would, let alone not.
The tanks built by the other side are no better in quality than the Imperial Cha, and even better in details, with stealth towing hooks and steel cables, smoke droppers, air filtration systems and the addition of skirts. None of this is something that the Imperial tanks do not have.
Those two armored vehicles are also stronger than the existing stupid ironclad vehicles, especially the anti-aircraft machine guns on them, which increases the coefficient of air defense.
All this shows that the other party has shown enough sincerity to do business with the empire in a real way, and it is also helping the empire.
As for the price, the Tiger only charged the empire 230,000 marks, which was 20,000 marks lower than its own cost. This shows even more that the other party is not making money from the empire, and even has the potential to protect the capital and lose money.
In fact, the cost of the Tiger production in Mongolia is 190,000 marks, and the reason for the cheapness is that the cost of smelting is reduced, and the cost of some materials is lower than that of Germany. sold to Lao Xi for 230,000 marks, and Dong Ku still has a surplus of more than 30,000 yuan.
Dong Ku's strategy is obviously to monopolize all the tiger production in Lao Xi's hands, let Lao Xi order all of his own, so that his production line can be fully mobilized, and a few factories will be dedicated to producing tiger production.
Based on this, Lao Xi received a report from Paricino that the arms company was going to bomb Paris tomorrow night, and Lao Xi agreed without hesitation, and began to mobilize planes to rush to the nearest airport. At this time, he did not realize the embarrassment of the line distance, although the Stuka was empty of 3,900 kilograms, but unfortunately the cruising radius was only more than 400 kilometers, for which he had to abandon the bomb and carry the auxiliary fuel tank to increase the range.
