Lei Hua didn't know how many people laughed at the title of the golden gun at the beginning, and seeing Yang Xing's bad eyes, Yan Xiong hurriedly waved his hand and begged for mercy: "Don't, I never had that kind of thought, you better spare me." The crowd laughed.

Two rounds of salvos, twenty aerial targets were hit by twelve, and eight fluttered down, Lin Mengsheng in the airship said depressedly: "It's a shame to lose people now, Your Majesty is just watching from the side." ”

The old faces of the craftsmen were slightly red, and Wang Jinbao coughed lightly and said: "Lin Dashao, it's just to show air combat ability, and we are not professional soldiers, so it's good to be able to shoot more than half of them." ”

At this point, the weapons carried in the airship were exhausted, and his own weight was sharply reduced, Lin Mengsheng drove the airship to return to the base after another basic test, announcing that the test flight was a complete success.

In order to reduce the weight of the airship itself, there are no pretend wheels or anything like that at the bottom, but a thick layer of solid rubber is added under the slightly wider bottom to absorb the shock, and if you want to move such a large thing, you have to find another way, which is to land on a large flatbed trailer with enough load capacity.

Lin Mengsheng's driving level is good, he landed on the trailer accurately, and the ground staff adjusted it slightly, and after stabilization, the airship was sent to the assembly workshop for maintenance.

There was no stove, but the sealed space of the airship cabin isolated most of the cold, Lin Mengsheng and the others did not feel unbearable after flying for so long, accompanied by the cheers of the staff who witnessed the whole process of the test flight, everyone straightened their waists and stood on the side of the landing field waiting for Yang Xing's review.

In the busyness of the ground staff, twelve fog balloons landed one after another, and the review and praise that Lin Mengsheng expected were not obtained, because Yang Xing was almost frozen, and as soon as he landed, he was sent to the lounge to restore his body temperature.

The experience of many test flights, the logistics have been quite perfect, ginger soup, hot water, have long been prepared, doctors are always on standby, and there is also a large stock of ointments for the treatment of frostbite.

Yang Xing trembled into the lounge, took the steaming ginger soup and handed it to Xiaomei and Damei behind him, took another bowl and poured a big mouthful, a warm current flowed in his body, and he suddenly felt a lot warmer.

After a while, Yuan Fang and Yu Jingqiu were responsible for Yuqing coming in, and as soon as they entered the door, Yuan Fang shouted: "Hurry up, bring Yuqing a bowl of warm water." ”

Yang Xing pointed to the ginger soup on the table and said, "There is ginger soup here." ”

Yuan Fang took the warm water and handed it to Yuqing and said, "She is already frozen, and she can't drink hot water for the time being." ”

Xiaomei trembled and walked to the pale Yuqing, and complained while rubbing her hands: "Sister Yuqing, why don't you wear more." ”

Da Mei put the warm blanket on Yuqing's body, glanced at Yuan Fang, who was wearing a thick leather jacket, and said, "Brother, you too, you wear so much, can't you give Yuqing one?" ”

Yuqing took a sip of warm water and explained: "It's me who doesn't want it, don't blame my brother-in-law, it's okay if I'm cold, if my brother-in-law freezes the fog balloon, no one will drive it." ”

Hearing Yuqing say this, Xiaomei and Damei let go of the innocent Yuan Fang and helped Yuqing rub her hands and face together to warm up. Yuan Fang sneezed, rubbed his nose and said, "This double-layer leather jacket is good, much warmer than when I first flew it." ”

Yang Xing beckoned and said, "Boss, come and sit here, I have something to discuss with you." ”

Yan Xiong and Ren Chang, who also flew for the first time, and other generals hugged their arms and shivered, although it was too cold, but they couldn't suppress the heat in their hearts, gathered together to evaluate the strength of the future air force, and their eyes glanced at Yang Xing and Yuan Fang, who were whispering from time to time, and they were all thinking in their hearts, they must strive to become the first batch of air forces to transform, it is really not good, and it is okay to get a few airships, just imagine, what a pride it will be to be in the sky to look at the entire battlefield, strategize, and win a thousand miles.

Yuan Fang sat next to Yang Xing, drank a bowl of ginger soup, and asked with a smile, "How is it?" Isn't it enjoyable? ”

Yang Xing nodded, and said with a bitter face: "It's just too cold, I said boss, can't the hanging basket of the fog balloon be changed to a closed type like an airship?" ”

Yuan Fang shrugged: "This has to be studied slowly, if the current hanging basket is closed, the wind resistance is too large, and many things have to be readjusted." ”

Yang Xing didn't know anything about this, so he shifted the main focus and said: "Boss, what kind of establishment do you expect the Air Force to need?" ”

Yuan Fang had an expected expression: "It's decided?" Yang Xing nodded vigorously.

Yuan Fang thought about it and said: "In addition to the weapons, water and food it carries, a fog balloon needs a driver, a maintenance, at least two soldiers to drop bombs and conduct basic air combat. ”

Yang Xing interrupted: "Air battle? Could it be that other countries also have air forces? ”

Yuan Fang waved his hand: "I'll talk about the air battle later, you listen to me." Yang Xing nodded and closed his mouth.

Yuan Fang continued: "As for the airship, it needs two pilots and two emergency repair personnel, in addition to the necessary food and water, as well as incendiary bombs and crossbow arrows, it also needs at least twenty combatants to exert its maximum combat effectiveness, and my prediction is that at least one hundred to two hundred airships and one hundred fog balloons are needed to form an independent air corps." ”

Yang Xing calculated: "If you calculate it like this, there are not many people, less than six thousand." ”

Yuan Fang shook his head and said: "It's not that counted, these can only be regarded as combatants, in addition to them, a large number of ground crews are also needed for scheduling and maintenance, and a ground force is also needed to protect the safety of the flight base, in addition, I plan to add some larger supply airships in the future, which can be used for air replenishment, so that the cruising range of the air force can be greatly improved." ”

Yang Xing said anxiously: "Boss, just say it, these are all done, how many people are needed, how much silver, and how long is there." Yuan Fang only had a general idea, and he didn't have a specific plan, so he didn't know how to answer for a while.

Yuqing, who had warmed up a little, knew that Yuan Fang was a two-hundred-and-five, and he didn't know anything about the formation of the legion, so he opened his mouth to relieve the siege and said: "In terms of personnel, my brother-in-law told me just now that it will take about fifteen to twenty thousand people. ”

Yuan Fang added: "It is best to have female soldiers, they are light in weight and can reduce consumption, and the air force does not need hand-to-hand combat, the physical requirements are not very high, and female soldiers are fully competent." ”

Yang Xing nodded and said, "There is no problem with this, boss, have you already thought of a candidate?" ”

Yuan Fang nodded: "Well, I want to select some veterans from the female soldiers of the Royal Guards as grassroots officers of the Air Force, and then transfer a 10,000-person army from the front line is almost enough." ”

Yang Xing nodded with a deep sigh and said, "Okay, you discuss this matter with Yuqing, and tell me if you have a decision, which legion you want, and I will transfer people back immediately." ”
