"I'm sorry, Mr. Lilinthal, but my current situation only allows me to see you here. www.biquge.info"In the ward, Qin Tian met Gustav? Lilinthal immediately apologized to him.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, it's not right for me to disturb your injuries." Gustav? Lilinthal said.

After some pleasantries, their conversation got to the point.

"Mr. Lilinthal, I am very concerned about your research. At the same time, I also admire it very much. Your brother, Otto? Mr. Lilinthal, I am an admirable person. He gave his life for the cause of flying. Qin Tian's face was in reverence.

"Your Royal Highness, if my brother knew what His Royal Highness said about the Prince, he would be very pleased." Gustav? When Lilinthal thought of his brother, he was also a little sentimental.

"Mr. Lirinthal, the Wright brothers of the United States developed the first aircraft a few years ago. What do you think about this? Qin Tian asked.

"Your Royal Highness, the Wright brothers have indeed accomplished the feat of the first human ascension. Although, their first liftoff did not last long. However, with subsequent research, the aircraft they developed took longer and longer to take to the air. I am confident that their research will be successful. "Gustav? Lilinthal said.

Qin Tian nodded, it is precisely because of the countless aviation pioneers who have gone forward and followed up the research that there will be the glory of the aviation industry in later generations. Although now, everything is still in the pioneering stage. However, Qin Tian knew that this was actually not far from the final success.

"Mr. Lilinthal, I don't know if you have thought about it, the application of aircraft in the military field." Qin Tian asked.

"The military field?" Lilinthal couldn't help but frown. The current airplane has only just solved the problem of flight, the time in the air is very short, the flight altitude is not high, and the speed is also very slow. Under such circumstances, it is undoubtedly a little premature to talk about applications in the military field.

"Yes, sir. Although, the machine of the aircraft has only just appeared. However, I think it will be a weapon that will change the world. Future wars will undergo earth-shaking changes as a result. Therefore, Germany must not lag behind other countries in this respect, and must even be at the leading level in the world. Only in this way can our national security and interests be guaranteed. Qin Tian said with a serious face.

Gustav? Lilintar was in awe. Although he hadn't thought of it that much at all, since Qin Tian attached so much importance to it. As a German, of course he had to work for the good of Germany.

"Your Highness, although the Wright brothers are ahead of the curve in this regard, our technical reserves are no worse than theirs. If there is a need, it is perfectly fine to catch up with them. "Gustav? Lirinthal assured.

Qin Tian nodded: "I believe in your ability. However, the performance of the current aircraft is still too poor, and further research is needed if it is to be applied to the military field. Think about it, on the battlefield of the future, swarms of planes carrying a large number of bombs will attack the enemy from the air, drop bombs on the enemy's head, and tear the enemy to pieces. In order to protect the country's airspace, countless warplanes fought in the air, machine gun fire, machine gun roaring, what a bloody scene! ”

Indeed, Gustav? Li Linthal had already been stimulated by the blueprint for the future that Qin Tian had depicted. Their research on aircraft is still in its infancy, and they never thought that there would be such a big application in the military field.

"If you don't object, Mr. Lilinthal, then from now on, let me support your research. I will provide all the funds, all the equipment, and all the other aspects of your research. I have only one request for this, and that is that your research project must be carried out according to my requirements. Qin Tian said.

Gustav? Lilinthal hesitated, but eventually nodded. He knew that if they agreed to Qin Tian's request, then their research would probably change to the military field that Qin Tian requested. However, as a German, how could he refuse Qin Tian's request? Besides, because of the lack of funding, their research is indeed in trouble. Without Qin Tian's support, they would even have a problem with their lives, let alone carry out further research.

"Your Royal Highness, I accept your offer. For the sake of the strength of the German Empire, we are willing to contribute our strength. "Gustav? Lilinthal said.

"Mr. Lilinthal, then I hope we can work together happily." Qin Tian's face was full of smiles. Gustav? Lirinthal was able to accept his offer, and that was undoubtedly the best outcome. He had been worried that these people who were engaged in scientific research would have some abnormal brains and were unwilling to be restricted. In that case, he would have no choice but to take drastic measures in order for the plan to succeed. It's just that in that case, the work efficiency will definitely be greatly affected, and that is not what Qin Tian wants. Gustav? It would be great if they could take the initiative to cooperate.

"Happy working together!" Gustav? Lilinthal also said.

"Mr. Lilienthal, when developing an airplane, the engine is the most important thing, that is the heart of the aircraft. Only with a good engine can the aircraft be able to fly higher and faster, and at the same time, the load capacity of the aircraft can also be increased. Deutsche Enginefabrik is improving aero engines based on those used in automobiles. Judging by the current situation, a major breakthrough has been made. Next, I will ask them to cooperate with you. In this way, we can provide you with more support. Qin Tian said.

"Yes, Your Highness the Prince. If the problem of the engine can be solved, then our development will be smoother. "Gustav? Lilinthal nodded.

"I hope that within three years, you will be able to develop an aircraft with a flight speed of more than 100 kilometers per hour, a practical ceiling of more than 2,000 meters, a flight range of more than 200 kilometers with one pilot and one aviation machine gun. In this case, there is not much to go to real combat. Qin Tian said.

Qin Tian listed several key data, for Gustav? For Lirinthal, this is undoubtedly a great challenge. But he believes that with the support in place, it can definitely be achieved.
