Chapter 204: Divine Gong Hall Flying Brigade
Go out of Huangshakou in the west and never look back.
Starting from the west gate of Huangshakou, it is an endless desert, a little green grass, sand and gravel everywhere, and you can see three tall pomegranate trees in the distance, which are called the fortune tree by the pack gang.
When you return from Dingjun City, you see the Fortune Tree, which means that you are going to get rich.
Although Huangshakou is not big, it is like a knife, splitting the east and west sides into different worlds.
On the fifth day of entering the desert, Renault suddenly ordered to speed up, and the speed of the convoy doubled, and just after noon, it was a normal day's journey.
The sun was still high in the sky, and the convoy began to camp by the spring. The camping sites on the Golden Road are fixed, about one hundred miles away, and most of these camping sites are places with water sources, no matter where they are, people and livestock are inseparable from water.
"Huya, unload the No. 10 car, and Zhang Tan will lead people to assemble the planes No. 01 to No. 03. Renault stepped out of the RV and gave the order.
Under Cui Qing's command, the camp was quickly established, the pot was buried, water was fetched for cooking, and with a firewood stove, it was much easier to cook. There is not much firewood and grass in the desert, and most of the pack gangs use livestock manure and a small amount of dead grass.
Zhang Tan took his disciples, with the help of slaves, to unload the three planes on the eighteenth pack car, divided them into three groups, and assembled them in half an hour.
Song Zhe's eyes were full of curiosity, Tian Ye was much more knowledgeable than him, some time ago, the plane's fame in Los Angeles was terrifying, as a grandmaster, he naturally had the opportunity to see it.
"Tianye, what is this?" asked Song Zhe.
"Airplane, a secret technique developed by Mr., can fly manned. Tian Ye said with a smile on his eyebrows.
"Sir, can I try it?" Tian Ye took a few steps forward, walked up to Renault's side and asked, the dream of human beings to fly to the sky can be realized in front of their eyes, even the grandmaster cannot resist this temptation.
"Yes. Renault nodded in agreement, and Zhang Tan immediately sent a few little apprentices to instruct Tian Ye on how to use the plane, the power of the grandmaster was too strong. The manufacturing process of the parts on the plane has been improved several times, and the quality is still very average, if you use too much force, the pedals, chains, and even gears may be broken by the grandmaster's great force.
"Field, I think there's still a seat, let's go together?"
"Good. ”
Li Si and Huya drove No. 02, Tian Ye and Song Zhe drove No. 03, and Renault took Gong Churui and drove No. 01.
The three planes were lined up, six pilots boarded the plane, inspected the parts of the plane, and Zhang Tan took his apprentice to inspect the airplane body below.
Flying is a very dangerous thing, these planes have been checked repeatedly before loading, and before takeoff, they have to be checked in more detail.
This is the rule set by Renault, and at present, it seems that what is the use of these rules, after all, the pilots of the plane are all grandmasters, and the speed and altitude of the flight are very average, even if they really fall, there will not be much danger.
But the rules must be set, and the habit is formed in the flight after flight. Renault's imaginary air force is a huge fleet of aircraft, with at least nine aircraft in one squadron, three squadrons in one group, and three groups in one wing.
And the air force that Renault wants must be based on at least one wing, and the number is too small to play a role on the battlefield.
As for the reconnaissance plane, in Renault's plan, it is dispensable, there is the God of Wealth, what kind of reconnaissance plane do you want?
Gong Churui slowly stepped on the pedal, felt energetic, and began to accelerate, Renault just needs to drive with peace of mind, don't look at Gong Churui is a little young woman, the grandmaster is the grandmaster, regardless of men and women, the strength is much stronger than ordinary people.
Feeling that the speed of the spiral rotation was almost over, I let go of the brakes, the fuselage trembled violently, and slid forward rapidly, and the oncoming wind hit my face, stinging slightly.
Pulling the control stick, feeling light, Renault flew the plane for the first time, and successfully made it fly. As the tires lifted off the ground, Gong Churui stepped harder.
"Don't push too hard, just keep up the current pace. Renault controlled the rudder and let the plane turn slowly at an altitude of more than 50 meters.
The 02 was controlled by Li Si and Huya, Li Si was the earliest test pilot and the longest-flying person in Da Chu, and the takeoff was smoother than Renault's 01.
Tian Ye and Song Zhe obviously encountered some trouble, Song Zhe was always in a hurry to fly, and when the speed was not enough, he pulled the joystick, and as a result, Zero 3 was like a rabbit, constantly jumping on the ground, but he couldn't fly.
The two grandmasters were busy for a quarter of an hour, after all, they were grandmasters, their brains were not stupid, they recalled the explanations of the disciples of the Zhangtan Altar, and slowly mastered the essentials of controlling the plane, and the nose of No. 03 raised slightly, and jumped into the air.
After waiting for another quarter of an hour for the Zero Three to familiarize the two grandmasters with the performance of the plane, he told Gong Churui to let them follow.
The radio is still immature, although it can communicate over short distances, it uses codes, Huya understands it, Tian Ye and Song Zhe have not learned it, and it is very inconvenient to use, it is a necessary equipment on the plane in the future, and it has not been installed on the plane for the time being.
Now, communication can rely on roaring, Renault and Huya can't, and the voice of the Nine Rank Martial Artist can't travel too far in flight, but the Grandmaster can do it.
On the three planes, there were four grandmasters, and as long as the distance was not too far, they could have a simple exchange.
The plane was flying in the sky, the purple shadow was running on the ground, it saw Renault get on the plane and fly away, it was not happy at that time, where are you going, take me with you, you are all gone, who will give me something to eat?
The speed of the pedal plane is really not very good, the speed of the Great Grandmaster Purple Shadow is nearly twice as fast as its kind, chasing a plane or something, it's too easy.
In half an hour, the plane flew out for more than a hundred miles, and the purple shadow was running at full speed, and its tail was quickly in a line, following closely.
"Hatsurui, tell them, get ready to land. "A little farther away, a herd of antelopes is nibbling on moss, this thing tastes quite good, this flight, in addition to the test flight, you can also take some game by the way.
Two hours later, the squadron returned to camp without incident, and this test flight made Renault discover a lot of problems. Having him navigate is not a problem.
However, it is impossible for him to lead all the air forces that will be formed in the future, and it will be quite difficult to find the target accurately.
It seems that I have to prepare a compass, I don't know if the magnetic field of the Great Chu World follows the same physical rules. Perhaps ask someone who is good at seamanship, navigating the sea is more troublesome than low-altitude.
Of course, there are also advantages, pedal planes, it does not need oil, as long as you still have the strength, you can keep flying. Every once in a while, it is necessary to stop and pour oil on the metal parts of the aircraft, and this also needs to be improved, and it is necessary to increase the fuel pouring port to refuel in the air.
Eating the mutton, Renault sorted out his thoughts.
In addition to the improvement of the aircraft, there is also the problem of pilots, you can't expect the grandmaster to pilot, it's best to be a nine-rank martial artist, it's really not good, lower the point requirements, and the seven-rank can also be.
In the convoy, there are not many Jiupin martial artists, only Huya, Feng Moyu, Ruan Ling, and Mo Li. Mo Li is also a relic of the rainforest, and joined the Shengong Hall with Ruan Ling, an old man in his forties, who is a distant relative of Ruan Ling.
The number of nine-rank martial artists is definitely not enough, so add the seven-rank ones. The number of seven-rank martial artists is more, Tiger King, Tiger Mei'er, Zhong Ping, Zhong Ling, plus the people brought by Ruan Ling, there are eighteen seven-rank warriors.
It's still not enough, on this trip, there are 30 planes brought out by Renault, and at least 60 pilots are needed.
It seems that the requirements can only be lowered, and the five-rank martial artist is not unable to drive, the cultivation is low, the strength and endurance are much worse, it is not a problem to fly, if you want to fly far, it will be difficult to fly fast.
The Nine Princesses led people to teach the children to read, and Renault gathered all the martial artists above the fifth rank together.
Even if you add the fifth-grade martial artists, the number is still not enough, and even if Huya and these people are counted, they only make up more than forty people.
"Everyone has seen the plane, I want to form an air force, you need a large number of aircraft pilots, the minimum requirement for pilots is five, seven or nine is better, after all, you need enough physical strength to fly the plane. We were short on manpower, and we were only able to make up twenty groups of pilots. For the rest of the journey, the march will be accelerated every day, and a small half day will be used for flight training. ”
As soon as Renault finished speaking, the warriors were excited, even if they were grandmasters, they couldn't fly in the sky, they were only five grades, and they could fly, this temptation was too great.
Today, when the four Grandmasters flew into the sky, they could only salivate with their necks up, and the remnants of the Rainforest Legion were almost frightened to their stomachs. Fortunately, I watched it unloaded from the pack cart with my own eyes, otherwise I thought it was a youkai.
I heard from Mr. that they all have the opportunity to fly airplanes, so what else is there to say, this benefit is also too good.
Originally, Renault thought that there would be some unwillingness, after all, flying is a very dangerous thing, but no one objected at all, even Tian Ye and Song Zhe strongly demanded that they be shared.
From the fifth day of entering the desert, the Divine Gong Temple Flying Brigade was formed.
After Renault tested a few times, he also fell in love with the feeling of flying, don't look at him as a martial artist from the medicine pile, after all, it is Jiupin, try to step on it yourself, and it really flies.
After trying, Renault came to the conclusion that the Jiupin Martial Arts can step on it for an hour in a row and fly at a cruising speed, about two hundred miles in an hour, which is really not fast, and it is about the same as when a war horse gallops at full speed.
If the liver is violent, Renault can more than double the flight speed, and at the fastest time, it can reach five hundred miles in an hour, which is not slow, and even the purple shadow can't catch up.
Of course, flying with this kind of explosive force cannot last, Renault can hold on for ten minutes at most, and Gong Churui is powerful, he can increase the speed by another hundred miles or so, and it lasts longer, and he doesn't ask if he flies for half an hour in a row.
Is this very fast? In Da Chu's eyes, it is already very fast, and Renault is converted into hours and kilometers, which is quite desperate.
Even if the Grandmaster flies at full strength, he can only fly at a speed of one hundred and fifty kilometers per hour, can this be called an airplane?
