Chapter 57: The Arrival of Barton (Revision)
"Fortunately, the population of France is not large at this time, and there is a lot of open space that can be used, otherwise I don't know what to do!"
This is a newly built airport outside the city of Nancy, with a "fast front" instead of residential and fences, this airport has no civilian and no luxurious facilities, there is only a large open space suitable for airplanes and airships to take off and land. The standard field airfield, including the towers, is also made of wood.
The airship has now started on Mike. Prince. Mass production began in the factories of the Merlin Military Industrial Group, mainly for civilian passenger and cargo transportation, and the "Thunder International" also planned to equip several airships for the transportation of war materials, so that it would not be subject to the restrictions of unsafe land transportation in wartime.
At the same time, Nancy City is also vigorously building its own airport. Prince. The handiwork of the Merlin military-industrial complex, which indicates that they have begun to offer their services to more civilian products.
These developments have been hailed by the residents of Nancy City, who at this time are in fact shareholders of the company, large and small, due to the priority given to the sale of shares. Prince. The American company Merlin Military Industrial Group is slowly merging with Nancy.
Nancy, as a hot spot in the midst of the war, was still economically developing, attracting the attention of the whole of France and even Europe. Except for part of the army transportation, the rest of the land transportation was completely transported by Mack. Prince. The Merlin military-industrial complex needs a huge amount of complicated raw materials.
This is why Nancy had to consider the construction of an airport, and the cost of the construction part was paid for by Mike. Prince. The Merlin Military Industrial Group undertook it, and they were given the site to build a special airport for the "Thunder International".
Looking at the empty airport, Tang Yunyang sighed from the bottom of his heart, this will become one of the bases where "Thunder International" can be open to the outside world to a certain extent, and the "castle" is still the most core secret area, guarded by the best troops of "Thunder International".
The Patton family had been flying in the sky for three days on this spacecraft named "Hua," and although it was smooth sailing, the "H" type "Hua," which had a speed of only 120 kilometers per hour, drove for three days and nights on a road of more than 3,200 nautical miles, or about 6,500 kilometers.
The facilities on the airship are exactly like a fully equipped office, although Mike. Lang's office is not available for him, but the rest of the airship is pleasant. Since there was no bad weather, even the daughter who was sitting on the floor playing with toys did not know that they were already flying in the sky.
When Barton got aboard the airship, he had understood that there was nothing that could be made up of a company that could produce such an airship, and he was relieved to think that this company was made up of Americans who dared to think of any kind of reckless idea, and who could rationally and shrewdly carry out such an idea.
This is a concept that the "American Dream" has created for Americans. That is, nothing is impossible to achieve, nothing is unattainable, as long as we act firmly. Patton, who was educated at West Point, had more than the tenacity that the American dream brought him, and the idea of duty and glory at West Point.
"If you follow that Mike. Mr. Lang said that dear, I will lead a regimental combat team called 'Xiao Cai', our mission is to make a quick assault, or cooperate with another armored combat vehicle battalion named 'Tiger Ben' to carry out a powerful assault, oh my God, what kind of army is this? It's hard to believe that in the hands of the French they could create such an army"
Patton's contract with Nancy City to "Thunder International" was about to end when the American army entered the war, and Pershing in particular gave him the task of taking a leave of absence, actually for military inspection, and to work hard for the formation of a new army when the American army arrived.
Patton was slightly puzzled by the fact that even a general like Pershing had a very respectful look for these Chinese who had not been noticed before, which made him a little confused, but he still believed in Pershing's judgment.
If he had known, Pershing had stayed up all night, and after reading the papers written by Tang Yunyang with hunger, he had already completed a new training syllabus for his troops, so that they could quickly adapt to the trench warfare on the European battlefield and the weapons they were equipped with.
The same fast-moving army, which is dominated by shotguns, rapid-fire pistols and rifles, and is delivered by armored transporters, will immediately begin experiments. According to Pershing's speculation, the entry of American troops into the war should be in the near future.
When Barton looked through the porthole at the French land below, he let go of the idea that he had been guessing for three days and three nights, after all, the army called Xiao Cavalry was not far from the ground, and he couldn't help but get excited when he believed that he would soon see it.
Listening to the faint sound of the four engines of the "H" airship coming from the sky, Tang Yunyang's mood also became excited. What would it be like to know that he was about to meet the god of war among the above?
Of course, Patton will not fully integrate into the Thunder International in the end, which Tang Yunyang has long expected, and his arrival is only because of the war that attracts him.
Tang Yunyang asked him to come, because he was an officer from the West Point Military Academy, and he would bring teaching materials and training methods to Tang Yunyang. This is not the most important thing, how the West Point Military Academy's education method of taking responsibility and glory as the school motto is reflected through the regulations, which is where Tang Yunyang is concerned.
"In the future, China should also have such a military school, a military school that is better than the armies of other European countries and can train better officers!"

Although it was time off for vacation, Patton was still wearing the pale green uniform of the American army, which was much better and more practical than the French uniform. It's just that the blue uniforms of the soldiers of "Thunder International" who came to greet him and wore French military uniforms were a little abrupt.
"Sir!"
Patton, who has always attached great importance to the appearance and etiquette of soldiers, is saluting his future boss, and in front of him are Tang Yunyang and Zhu Binhou. For Patton's salute, Tang Yunyang was inevitably very excited, and his return gift was also very solemn. You must know that in the U.S. army back then, Patton's soldiers had to shave their faces every day, and the officers had to buckle up their steel helmets and keep their leather boots shiny, which was not something that few troops could do.
"Lieutenant Patton, we have arranged accommodation for you and your family in Nancy, you can report to Kee and take part in training after two days of rest!"
Patton was an impatient, and the three days in heaven had already made him unbearable, and if he had rested for two more days, it would be better to send him back to the United States.
"Sir, I'm not here to rest, if I can, I'd like to check out the team called Xiaoqi first, and as for my family, I think they'll find a place to stay!"
