Chapter 331: Preparation Before the End
ps: There were a lot of things yesterday, and I didn't have time to update, so I'll make up for it now. By the way, ask for tickets, ask for subscriptions, and ask for various ...... Thank you all o(n_n)o

October 11, 2758 (1917), Hanjing.
"Mr. Wen, several new models of my country's air force have all been accepted and accepted, and now they are organizing production and redressing. Gu Xiaoyuan sent a military report.
Wen Desi took the report and said with concern: "Okay, Xiaoyuan, you have to pay attention to rest, now my secretariat is in charge of you and Xiaofei......"
"Hmph, it's good to know......" Gu Xiaoyuan glanced at him, and was about to say something, but suddenly felt a wave of nausea for no reason, and a stream of sour water suddenly gushed up.
"Wow......" Gu Xiaoyuan hurriedly ran to the trash can next to her and spit out a mouthful of sour water.
Wen Desi hurriedly walked over to support her, and asked repeatedly, "Xiaoyuan, what's wrong with you?"
"Hmph, it's not all your fault!" Gu Xiaoyuan glanced at her, pushed him away, and ran out with a red face.
"Hehe, it looks like there's one less one again......" Wen Deji smiled knowingly. Then he immediately called the medical office of the presidential palace and asked them to send a doctor to diagnose Gu Xiaoyuan.
Now several heads of the secretariat are no longer in normal working condition. Secretary-General Gu Xiaolu takes care of the children at home, and only works half a day every day, basically without any important work. According to China's current preferential treatment of mothers and babies, she will not officially resume her previous workload until at least the end of this year. Gu Xiaolan and Gu Xiaoqing, the two deputy secretaries-general, were also 6 months pregnant, and left their posts to go home to raise their babies in accordance with the regulations.
Now it seems that there is another Gu Xiaoyuan to leave the post to recuperate. As for who did this? Ahem, why don't you need to ask? Wen is always a normal man. However, Wen Desi's desire in this regard is not very strong, and after so many years, he has only eaten more than a dozen sisters such as the "Seven Sisters of the Gu Family" in the secretariat. It's all internal digestion, yes, it's internal digestion!
After sending Gu Xiaoyuan away, Wen Desi picked up the report and looked at it.
"J-4, J-5, and J-6 have all started mass production, not bad, it seems that they can catch up. In this way, we will have overwhelming air superiority when we enter the war......" Wen Deji couldn't help but bow his head slightly when he saw the number above.
Of course, China's new planes are not only bombers and transport planes, but also fighters, attack planes, reconnaissance planes, seaplanes, and other aircraft, all of which are monoplanes, and their performance is basically equivalent to that of the planes of the 30s in the original time and space.
Beginning in the second half of this year, the General Armament Department of the Chinese People's Liberation Army revised the naming rules for weapons; in the new regulations, only the aircraft officially equipped by the ** unit can have official numbers with prefixes such as "Jian", "Boom", and "Qiang", and all export-oriented aircraft are not allowed to occupy such numbers. Therefore, the original J-3 "Swift" (prototype Fury 2) and J-4 "Huangli" (prototype HE51) two export aircraft were cancelled and renamed FC-1 and FC-2, "FC" is the English initials of "fighter" and the Chinese pinyin initials of "export".
The main fighter in service, the J-5 "Shrike" fighter, has its number changed to J-3. At present, the J-4, J-5 and J-6 aircraft that have begun mass production are all new aircraft after the implementation of the new naming rules, of which J-4 and J-6 are both Air Force fighters, the former is similar to the original P-40, is an air superiority fighter. The latter is similar in appearance to the P-38 and is a long-range heavy fighter. The J-5 is a carrier-based fighter of the Navy, similar in appearance to the F4F of the original space-time.
As we all know, the most important subsystem on the aircraft is the engine, which is the heart of the aircraft, the focus of the focus. As for the fuselage, wings, communications, weapons, and other subsystems, all of them are secondary issues. As long as you have a good engine, you can play however you want. China now has a 1,000 kilowatt (1,341 hp) engine, so it's natural to play whatever it wants.
In addition, this is also a helpless thing, the development speed of aviation technology in this plane is much faster than that of the original plane, and now several major belligerents except for Mao Zi, who is making a revolution, the rest of the countries have changed their guns and replaced them with monoplanes.
In addition to Germany and Turkey, which have long since changed monoplanes, Britain and France on the side of the Entente, Austria and Italy on the side of the Allies, and other countries have also completed their monoplanes at the beginning of this year. Even Japan, with the technical support of Britain and France, has developed its own monoplane fighter. Since the second half of this year, there have been more and more monoplanes, especially fighter planes, and there are fewer and fewer biplane fighters in various countries, and now the skies in Europe are basically filled with all kinds of monoplane fighters.
Among them, the most powerful change of clothes is the United States, although they are the latest to change clothes. During the Battle of the Faroe Islands at the end of May, their F2C "Hawker-1" biplane fighter was knocked out by the German He-33 monoplane. In fact, at that time, the United States had also developed its own monoplane fighter, but it did not have time to change its equipment, and the Yankees, who had learned from the pain after the war, immediately stepped up production and quickly completed the refitting of the front. Now there are no biplanes left in the first-line fighters of the United States, and the original biplanes have been transferred to the second line and thrown to the National Guard to play. Moreover, they not only replaced fighters with monoplanes, but also bombers with monoplanes.
Well, since these aircraft are more or less influenced by the J-3 "Shrike" fighter, although the appearance is different, the main structure is almost the same. They are all fixed landing gear with fairings, a closed cockpit and a weapon system equipped with a firing coordinator.
On top of that, they all came up with 400 to 500 kilowatt engines, yes, 400 to 500 kilowatts, which is at least a decade ahead of the same period in the original space. This is normal, because before the power of aero engines reaches 1000 kilowatts, there is not much difference in the technical level, and many of them are problems of thinking. The R&D strength and industrial base of these old industrial countries are still very strong, especially with the full support of the national machinery, coupled with the physical objects introduced by China as a reference, the development speed is naturally much higher than that of the original time and space.
Now that the flight launches of the great powers have gone up, it is only a matter of time before there is a breakthrough in airframe design and so on, and if China wants to continue to maintain absolute air superiority, it must be more advanced. Since the aviation technology of the great powers has reached the level of the end of the 20s, China needs to reach the level of the late 30s in order to maintain the advantage of generation difference.
Besides, Wen is always a pragmatist. He didn't want to be like Sandezi, making a lot of inexplicable models, or because of the lack of potential for weapon transformation, he fell behind within a few years of coming out, so that the troops' equipment would have to be changed once every few years. In his opinion, this kind of waste of resources and manpower is too stupid, so his requirements for weapons are that there must be at least ten years of advance in technology, and there must be enough room for improvement.
So, all the new aircraft that were reequipped this time were in accordance with his requirements and could remain ahead for at least ten years. If you add the reserved renovation space, it will not be outdated for fifteen years. Of course, the export restrictions on these aircraft are much stricter, and they will not be bought when they have money as before. Well, although the monkey version was also sold before, but now if it is not a particularly close country, such as the younger brother of the Human Revolutionary Federation, other countries can't even buy the monkey version.
Of course, they don't have to worry, China has now also developed a variety of export models, all kinds of models are available.
This batch of aircraft is the most varied and time-intensive in the past with the largest number of types and models. There are not only three types of fighters, two types of large and medium-sized bombers, and two types of transport planes, but also three types of attack aircraft, such as the J-2, J-3, and J-4, three types of seaplanes, such as the Shui Reconnaissance-2, the Shui Reconnaissance-3, and the Shui H-2, as well as the H-6 torpedo bomber, the Trainer-2 trainer plane, and the Reconnaissance-1 professional reconnaissance plane.
Many of these aircraft are metal structures and require a lot of aluminum alloy. But don't worry about this, China's electrolytic aluminum output was 580,000 tons last year, and the second place in the United States has just reached 100,000 tons. As for the supply of bauxite, there is also a supply from Guinea, Australia, Brazil and Jamaica. Although the export of the first two was affected by the war, the supply of the latter two was also able to meet the requirements. Even if you don't count imports, the Borofen plateau bauxite reserves in Annam province reach 2 billion tons, and this super bauxite can still be mined in the open pit.
Of course, it is not only the Air Force that will be reequipped, but also the Navy and Army have a lot of equipment to be reequipped. At present, Chinese and military-related enterprises have expanded new factories and started production at full capacity.
In addition to the change of clothes, China's military is also quietly expanding. In June this year, China's Central Military Commission issued a series of policies, including the expansion of the active force and the armed police force, and the intensification of training for the reserve force and the National Guard. At the same time, the "four clubs" have also begun to launch a series of preferential activities, adding and updating equipment to attract more citizens to carry out relevant training.
It is expected that by the end of this year, the regular army of the Chinese Army will be expanded to 25 divisions (67. 50,000), 40 B divisions (720,000), 40 mixed brigades (410,000), 10 heavy artillery brigades (70,000), 6 armored brigades (40,000), 6 cavalry brigades (40,000). Combined with the army aviation, various garrison units, and various independent units, the total number will reach about 2.3 million. At the same time, the Air Force will be expanded to 300,000, the Navy will reach 400,000, and the Armed Police Force will be expanded to about 450,000. Plus more than 400,000 reserves, and 1.25 million National Guard. The total armed forces will reach more than 5 million.
This number is certainly scary in the eyes of foreign countries, but it is as much as 5 in relation to China. With a population base of 400 million, it is not so remarkable. It's less than one percent. People Russia 1. 700 million people can burst out 6 million gray livestock, and the other participating countries are even more exaggerated, and their mobilization ratio has reached about one-tenth of the total population, which is the advantage of a large population.

As soon as Wen Deji finished reading this report, Rin Tosaka, the confidential secretary in charge of East Asia, came in and reported: "Mr. Wen, just now the Navy Headquarters reported that that Kolchak has been taken to Hanjing. ”
"Oh, so fast?" Wen Deji was slightly surprised.
"Yes, he was already in Yokohama when the Navy contacted him, so he came quickly......" Rin Tosaka said, "He asked to meet with you......"
"Okay, then let's arrange to meet him in the afternoon......" A smile appeared on the corner of Wen Desi's mouth.
The Russian Cloth Party did not wait until November to turn around like the original plane, because Kornilov, a novice, had a coup d'état in July, which made the Cloth Party master the armed forces of Petrograd earlier than the original plane, so their actions were advanced.
As soon as Kornilov's army collapsed, the Brux, which was closely connected to the Red Guards, immediately returned to the forefront, and the prestige of the Provisional Government fell to the bottom. In order to salvage the situation, Prime Minister Kerensky planned to use the remaining forces of the Provisional Government to arrest the Bolshevik leadership in Petrograd and negotiate with the grassroots. However, his plans were leaked. Knowing that the "good friend" Lao Ke was going to make a move, Comrade Ulyanov naturally would not wait stupidly, and he was immediately ready to turn his face.
By the way, Ulyanov and Kerensky, two good childhood friends, were classmates and neighbors in primary and secondary schools, and Kerensky's father was also the principal and teacher of Ulyanov's secondary school. The relationship between the two was not ordinarily good, and Ulyanov affectionately called him "Little Napoleon" and "Little Calfskin", but later became enemies because of political differences. Well, that's what kind of love and killing each other, who knows......
On September 7, the Ulyanov Party took the lead and began the second revolution. At seven o'clock that night, Trotsky, the backbone of the Party, led the Red Guards, soldiers and the people to surround the "Winter Palace", the seat of the Provisional Government. At this time, Kerensky was in a meeting with his ministers to discuss how to get rid of the party.
Kerensky knew that the Cloth Party had surrounded the Winter Palace, and he was immediately frightened. Seeing that the situation was not good, he fooled the poor ministers the next morning that he had decided to go and meet the reinforcements himself. In fact, this guy got into the car of the British Embassy and ran away on his own.
The bosses all ran away, and the remaining ministers still had the heart to resist, so the Cloth Party took control of Petrograd very easily and completely the next day, almost bloodlessly, and did not even fire a few shots.
After Kerensky escaped from Petrograd, he ran to the command of the Northern Front, where he immediately organized men and horses to prepare for a counteroffensive. But he only has the mouth cannon skill max, and his military ability is basically zero. His last resistance quickly fell into the streets, and on October 25, Kerensky, who felt powerless, once again fooled his subordinates to go to Petrograd to negotiate with the Brux. But he did not go to Petrograd at all, but disguised himself as a woman and ran away. He then absconded to Finland and finally to the Netherlands.
Therefore, the second revolution in Russia should be called the "September Revolution" (Gregorian calendar, Gregorian calendar) or the "August Revolution" (Russian calendar, Julian calendar).
