By the time several SY-1 transport planes loaded with Lafitte pilots flew over Nancy, night had already enveloped the area. The reaction on the ground was both novel and surprising to the pilots on the plane, and the clever guy had already thought of it.

"Looks like it's going to be interesting here."

Two long rows of lights suddenly lit up on the ground, not only marking the location of the approach and exit, but also illuminating the runway, although the lights were not strong, but at night they were enough for the pilot's keen eyes to perceive.

At the same time, large and small searchlights were lit up near the airfield, and the columns of searchlights circled around the sky, presumably providing close-range fire support for their safe landing.

This is a searchlight on an anti-aircraft vehicle near the airport, which is synchronized with a 35-mm cannon or a 12.7-mm machine gun, mounted on the chassis of an armored vehicle. Not only was it easy to maneuver, but the searchlight also allowed them to fight at night.

This airport is actually the airport of Nancy's future airway, which was invested and built by Nancy, and of course, for the safety of Nancy, it is temporarily stationed and used by the air force of Thunder International. And the inhabitants of Nancy were glad to have such an aerial umbrella during the war.

Accompanying Lafitte's squad to Nancy was Emile. Major General De Leon and his adjutant, his purpose is to take over the defense of the city as soon as possible, and to prepare for the deployment of the Thunder International for the future combat operations in advance.

The atmosphere of the welcome meeting held in the newly built airport waiting hall in Nancy City was extremely warm, which not only included the company's senior management headed by Tang Yunyang and the officers of Thunder International, but also some courtesans from Nancy City to participate.

Due to the large number of young soldiers, a buffet-style dance was held at this time. The wine and the beauties not only make the Yankees of Lafitte's squad pretend to be more like their commander Jojes. Captain Synot's decent gentlemanly demeanor also made the hearts of these guys who had just come off the battlefield beat faster and their blood boiled.

When the music started, a pair of young people slid onto the dance floor, and it was clear that the pilots of Lafitte's squad were satisfied with Tang Yunyang's arrangement, and at least they had a good time that night.

As for the emir who is on a mission. Maj. Gen. De Leon, and Jorges. Soon after the atmosphere became warm, Captain Cynott and Tang Yunyang quietly left the place and drove to the castle. No one knows how they talked, but the next day was a surprise to everyone.

"Look, these are our new planes, oh my god, these babes are so fucking fascinating!"

As always, Kony, who is used to playing treasures. Campbell was the first to exclaim. Indeed, these were taken by Mike. Prince. The Newburgh 11-F fighter modified by Merlin is indeed more fascinating.

The transparent, side-opening transparent canopy indicates that pilots are no longer exposed to wind and rain. In addition, the wings seem to be much thicker, and even the drag-generating cables of the two wings are missing, and the honeycomb laminated fuselage is not only lighter than the albatross, but also stronger.

The engine was naturally replaced with a thrust-to-weight ratio of 13.5, water-cooled V-shaped eight-cylinder "Espano. Siza" type engine, while the landing gear is designed with a simple folding device, so that when the aircraft is in the air, the landing gear with huge drag is folded backwards, and the two wheels are close to the sides of the belly.

Seeing such a beautiful plane, for their squadron leader Rheu . Louberry was hit harder. It is likely that he will not be able to take to the skies again in the future.

Follow the emir. Orders of Major General De Leon, Joe Jays. The Lafitte team, led by Captain Senot, will form a joint air force with the flying team of Thunder International. As always, he will be responsible for all work on the ground airfield. The flying team is led by the ace pilots of Lafitte's team. Luberry's order was the most peculiar.

"Ah, this bastard, arranged me with the life I least wanted, and see, when the battle is over, I will definitely make him look good!"

Ruiwu. Lieutenant Louberry looked at his young men jealously as he watched his young men talk about the new planes that had not yet been painted with insignia, and thought about his own annoying fate.

According to his appointment, he remains the squadron commander of the Joint Air Force. But he will spend most of his daytime life in heaven in the future. Because he will board the "H-1" airship produced by Thunder International's new airship using the helium production equipment that Tang Yunyang brought back from the United States, and carry out air early warning and air combat command work in the air.

It is said that the airship not only had complete observation equipment, but also complete radio communication equipment, whether it was wireless telegraphy or radio communication equipment. In addition to the radio reception (radio), these new Newburgh 11-F aircraft also have improved radio generators, which will indicate the location of each parachute pilot so that they can be rescued without incident.

Of course, at this time, there can be no "radar" and other toys on the early warning airship, but the excellent long-range equipment makes their observation distance in a clear sky reach 60 kilometers. That's 20 kilometers more than the 40 kilometers or so of the lookouts on the sea. One is due to the height, and the other is due to the precise telescopic equipment.

This makes it difficult for such early warning airships to not only provide early warning from the air, but also to make it difficult for ground forces to escape their attention. The main thing is that its altitude is almost 1,000 meters higher than that of the highest aircraft flying today, which means that it basically does not need escort when carrying out missions.

Therefore, not only did the airship have air commanders such as Luberry, but also artillery and infantry scouts on top of it, and of course they had to accept the reubles while on duty on the airship. Louberry's command.

Only one of these airships has been completed for the time being, and the other nine ships that have started construction at the same time are still under construction. In addition, long-range airships that are modeled after large German airships and built into such "H" airships are under construction, and construction of as many as 30 ships has begun at the same time.

(The first release of this book) does not laugh at group A: 35761481; Email: [email protected].

Their daily mission is to fly at the edge of the fighter range, in every good weather period, to provide full warning for the city of Nancy. A squad of Newburgh 11-F is to patrol their vicinity to protect them.

These changes were not known to the command of Prince William on the Verdun front in Germany. All they knew was that Nancy had transferred three French infantry divisions to the Verdun area, and that the defenses had already reached his "weakened" requirements.
