485 Eagle over North Africa (Season 1)

"October 20, 1911, Sunny"

"It's a sunny day again"

"To be honest, I've never hated the damn sunny day so much, it's almost all sunny days of the year. 【 I want: super fast update ]"

"Although the conditions here are very good, and the above has tried their best to make us eat and dress well, I am still homesick, flying lonely in the sky every day, and I can't even see a bird, which makes me very sad, in fact, everyone is thinking, but we don't know when we can go back."

In the Basra oil field, in a spacious warehouse made of wooden planks, the young pilot Zhu Binhou stood on the edge of the plane, using his wings as a table, burying his head in a diary, a thick diary recording his life experience from departure to arrival here for more than a year.

When he was halfway through writing, biting the tip of the pen and racking his brains to think of words, a loud voice sounded from the door of the warehouse, only to see the captain Tian Yun walking into the large hangar with several pilots, and discussing flying skills with the second batch of rookies who had just arrived around him while walking.

"That's not right."

"You pull the joystick too much, so it will cause the speed of the fuselage to rotate, so you have to pull it gently, and the action should be as soft as possible"

"Fuck off, everything is up to the pussy, do you want to be soft?" Tian Yun kicked away the rookie who was rapping, pointed to the nearest aircrew and shouted: "Xiao He, you remember to wipe the engine of No. 7 with lubricating oil for a while, this sand is really harmful"

"And you, Ma Jun, you bastard, did you see a woman in the sky? Then the monkey is in a hurry, don't play low, the sand here is too fine, easy to damage the paddle and the engine, don't flatten your mouth, this time you will be ruined, you see, the engine has been changed five times"

"Guosheng, don't laugh, you Sitai, it's no better to do this there, I'll kick you all back"

Holding the thick flight plan, Tian Yun walked in front of every plane and crew, and his mouth kept nagging, which was even worse than a broken-mouthed mother-in-law, which made the hangar laugh more, and the atmosphere gradually became lively.

Tian Yun smiled slightly in his heart, he did it on purpose, if he wanted to maintain his morale in a foreign country, he had to constantly find various ways to relieve pressure, he knew that these heartless bastards under his command sometimes felt a lot more comfortable when they scolded them.

For a year, in order to maintain the operation of this so-called amateur flight base, the Air Force Command has tried its best to bring all kinds of hometown news and snacks by tankers, and also bring letters once a month.

But after all, this place is too far away, so it is necessary to stimulate everyone through such a small means. (Full text reading, all in. (.i. Want. Wen. Learning Network)

Since arriving at the Basra oil field late last year as a flying enthusiast, he and his friends have been hiding here to test the performance of the aircraft, and they are afraid of being too exposed, so they can only take off five planes at a time.

To be honest, he still doesn't understand why he and the good guys selected from the air force regiments were sent here, but this year was not in vain, at least under the destruction of sand and dust and scorching sun, the engine got a chance to test it, as the problem continues to be exposed, the power of the engine sent from China is greater than the previous one, and the current batch has broken through four hundred horsepower, which is a miracle

"It seems that we still have to consume more, so I don't know if the hundreds of scrapped goods sent back will make the logistics department cry." Tian Yun laughed dryly twice and walked to his beloved landline, but when he saw the smooth body, he sighed.

The dragon wings are gone

Dragon wings are the symbol of the Air Force, originally the Air Force chose a pair of eagle wings, but then everyone felt that it was easy to confuse with the army's double-headed eagle, the headquarters found several masters of calligraphy and painting, combined Western and Eastern styles, designed a pair of dragon wings with fire, and sent it to the emperor for review, and the emperor added a golden dragon ball in the middle of the wings.

When the logo of the two-winged pearl was painted on the plane for the first time, everyone applauded loudly, because it represented that the air force had officially become the wings of the dragon country, and the dragon wings and dragon claws were the treasures of the dragon, at least it also made the air force more confident, so that it would not be pressed by the navy and dare not raise its head.

Although after the Battle of Sibilu Island, various countries have also strengthened the study and use of aircraft, but according to the statistics of the Air Force Intelligence Department, as of last year, the five major military powers in Europe were only equipped with only 200 military aircraft, while the United States has only 15 aircraft, but China has already set up a special air force, and for the first time, a naval aviation system has appeared, and the total number of military aircraft in the whole country is as high as 600, and the number of specialized military pilots has exceeded the 3,000 mark.

But after all, this is not a domestic air base that can fly freely, so the Air Force Dragon Wing logo is forbidden to use, but fortunately, the command finally did not treat itself badly, at least let the F3 Condor in front of him be brought.

After the official numbering, the first generation of the Falcon he flew that year was numbered as the F2 fighter, and this F3 was born from the improved version of the Falcon, in addition to using a high-horsepower engine, but also slightly modified the shape of the wings, using a streamlined fuselage, but there was no qualitative change overall, so the original finalization was intended to use the name F2B, but the Air Force still decided to let it be sequenced separately.

At present, there are a total of 48 F3 Condors here, and in order to take advantage of this opportunity to test the various systems of the aircraft as much as possible, not only more than a dozen technical experts were brought to observe the field, but also the star engine of Changchun Engine Factory and the inline V-6 engine of Hanyang Engine Factory were used.

In addition to the engine, the wing has also been modified twice, the wing flap action barrel has also been modified once, and the transmission connecting rod has been modified five times.

But this did not make everyone too happy, for the sake of secrecy, the separate voice radio was dismantled, the wireless navigator was dismantled, and the hateful thing is that the bastards also dismantled the synchronous shooter invented by the emperor and known as the big secret weapon of the Air Force, and the only weapon at present is a light machine gun that is mounted in front of the cockpit beyond the height of the propeller.

The synchronous shooter is a big treasure, it uses concave and convex gears and connecting rods, and the propeller rotates to form a synchronization, which solves the problem of often breaking the propeller after the machine gun fires, so this thing must not appear in Europe that has not yet installed weapons at this moment.

Tian Yun climbed into his plane, sat on the chair and looked at the cockpit that was too simplified, it was really helpless, the headquarters sent his own people here, did he test the equipment, or did he see that his people were not pleasing to the eye, and simply exiled and pulled them?

With the captain's shout, the day began in the hangar, with an engine being lifted out for inspection, oiling and maintaining the mechanical linkage, checking the tire inflation, and so on.

But just when everyone was immersed in their work, there was a sudden shout outside: "Two planes, four o'clock"

The sound instantly made the hangar noisy like a frying pan, and everyone rushed to the door of the hangar, and Tian Yun quickly took over the telescope from the air crew.

Whose plane will come here?

Soon after Tian Yun raised the telescope, he found two small dots that were approaching, and as the small black dots slowly enlarged, two familiar naval ospreys appeared in the field of vision.

Looking at the hideous dragon claws in the white circle on the navy's fuselage, Tian Yun shouted excitedly: "It's the navy, naval aviation"

Being able to see an osprey from his hometown soaring in front of him thousands of miles away is unimaginable to ordinary people, so when the identity of the other party was confirmed, Zhu Bin and the other five pilots immediately piloted the vulture and took off to welcome their comrades from afar.

Seven fighters that are almost similar except for the landing gear soar together in the sky, circling up and down like butterflies and entangled together, like lovers who have not seen each other for many years, wanting to release all the lovesickness.

If it weren't for the strict restrictions on lift-off, Tian Yun would not be able to release all the planes in his hand and let everyone spread the wild.

Ten minutes later, when the two ospreys radioed their condolences and began to return home, everyone was still standing in the long yellow sand, reluctant to watch their comrades leave.

Looking at the condolences from the navy, Tian Yun was excited and at the same time, he couldn't help but have a thought in his heart, does the arrival of the navy indicate something?

In the flight command cabin set up on the rear bridge of the Brahmaputra River, two air crew observers were relieved to see two ospreys slowly returning from the telescope.

As the Osprey slowly landed beside the Yangtze River-class No. 5 ship, the formation of another sister ship, the Nujiang, and three improved Duke-class battleships showed its hideous face in the Indian Ocean.

"Staff Officer Wu, the plane is back." On the deck, the busy scene of the lifting operation behind him, the captain Tang Kun took the greeting message he had just received from the Basra oil field like a love letter, and said with a smile: "These small ones seem to be suffocated." ”

Wu Yingke nodded, and also smiled: "The hungry tiger is a real tiger, and they will understand." These words made the two look at each other and smile, and as the two planes were retracted separately, the formation quickly began to turn around and head out of the Persian Gulf.

As the first batch of former Beiyang elders to go to Honolulu that year, Wu Yingke witnessed the crazy growth of this navy, and he himself has risen from the captain of the destroyer, the staff officer of the battleship, to the chief of staff of the political department of the navy.

He does not envy those front-line commanders, there are too many people in this fleet who can fight, and it is precisely because there are too many arrogant soldiers and fierce generals, so his task as a staff officer of the Political Department has become extremely important.

This mission was above board, and not only Britain was notified, but also France, Germany, Italy, and other countries were informed that according to the plan, the formation was preparing to carry out a round-the-world voyage training, but in fact, the Admiralty suddenly sent him, a political staff officer, and the mystery was self-evident.

Looking at the three Duke-class ships that had been improved and replaced the original four twin 203mm naval guns on both sides with four single-barreled L45/305mm naval guns, his brow furrowed again.

The Ministry of Intelligence has heard from Italy the top-secret news that they are going to fight North Africa, but no one knows when the war will start, so no one knows, when the Ottomans see this kind of big guy that has been specially improved for them, similar to the low-level version of the Chinese type battleship, will the third sale be successful?

Wu Yingke took out his cigarette and watched the bow split the waves, the white waves tumbling from both sides of the hull, and his thoughts began to drift.

At this moment, on a tall steel column behind the tall front bridge, something like a large square trumpet suddenly turned slowly.
