Wang Maoru was very surprised, the performance of this aircraft was much more than he expected, and asked: "Does this aircraft have a name?" What is his role? ”

Luo Haiquan said: "It has not yet been named, but he has two roles, reconnaissance and bombing, but he does not have the ability to attack from the air." There is a compartment between the aft compartment and the front compartment, during which 30 51mm caliber mortar shells can be stored, or 20 75mm mortar shells can be placed after modification. ”

Wang Maoru asked eagerly: "Have you produced it?" ”

Luo Haiquan said: "There is one, which is placed in the warehouse of Beijing Huaxing Airport, and has been tested ten times, but there is still a gap between the theoretical flight and the actual flight, for example, the maximum range is 800 kilometers, and the farthest distance we have actually flown is only 50 kilometers. ”

"Huaxing Airport Relocation." Wang Maoru said, "This aircraft is theoretically very good, and it is also the crystallization of your contributions, so it is called the Kirin 1st generation bomber." ”

Today, Luo Haiquan's purpose is to hope that Huaxing Aircraft Company will relocate, and naturally he can get the greatest support on Wang Maoru's territory, and he was very happy to hear his decision, and said: "Okay, I have been looking forward to this day for a long time." This is the second aircraft, this aircraft has one of the biggest features, its structure has a big change from the first Kirin 1 you named, that is, the rear cabin is 50 centimeters higher than the front cabin, and an air-cooled heavy machine gun can be placed above the rear cabin, which can attack the front. The aircraft has a top speed of only 110 kilometers per hour and a maximum range of only 400 kilometers. This aircraft, we believe that he can perform combat missions between aircraft in the air. Wang Maoru nodded, and Luo Haiquan continued: "Please take a look at the third aircraft." This is a monoplane, and we think that the monoplane also has the performance of a biplane after referring to the pigeon plane. And its small area makes it not easy to be attacked. This monoplane weighs 420 kg, has a maximum take-off weight of 880 kg, is 8.6 meters long, has a wing length engine horsepower of 75 horsepower, and has a maximum flight speed of 1 km. He's only a one-man plane, but the Overseers, please see if there are tubes on the sides of the wings? The distance between the two tubes, just beyond the propeller, is extended if we can. Two machine guns were fixed in these two positions. Using wire pulleys, the switch is placed in the cockpit, which is left vacant by the pilot, and with a slight pull, the pilot can attack with the left and right machine guns. ”

Wang Maoru saw this design. Jumped up happily, this is simply ahead of the times, beyond the level of the First World War, it is only 1916, not 1920, how wise the people are, how wise, and hurriedly said: "Okay, good." Okay, this design is very ingenious, very ingenious, this aircraft is named Suzaku 1 attack aircraft, the previous one is named Qinglong 1 attack aircraft, is there a fourth model? Take it out. Take it out. He excitedly grabbed the drawings and sighed.

Luo Haiquan hurriedly took out the last aircraft design and said, "This aircraft ...... Lord Overseer, this aircraft was designed primarily for the purpose of carrying loads, and if we study all three of the above at the same time, this one will definitely not work, and we will not have the energy to invest. This aircraft is a twin-engine, referring to the Handley Page transport aircraft produced by the British Rolls-Royce company, with two wings and twin engines, only two 250 horsepower engines, which can carry 18 people, weigh 3.5 tons, load 6.5 tons, length of 19 meters, wing length of 28 meters, maximum flight altitude of 4000 meters, maximum flight range of 800 kilometers. But this is the theory at the time of design, and we don't have any of this kind of aircraft, and everything is on this drawing. ”

"Who made this drawing?"

"A Fujian classmate named Wang Deyue, his design." Luo Haiquan said.

"Big plane, big plane!" Wang Maoru praised: "In this way, you should immediately return to Beijing and start to relocate the aircraft company immediately, including all the workers, flight technicians, and pilots, by the way, how are the pilots now?" ”

"The current pilots are all teenagers from your flight class" Speaking of this, Luo Haiquan's expression was gloomy, and he said: "In the long time of right and wrong, two teenagers have already fallen to their deaths. ”

"How...... Alas. Thinking that even talents like Feng Ru died during the test flight of the aircraft, Wang Maoru sighed with emotion, the development of the aircraft does need talents, and it also needs to be sacrificed, and said: "Manager Luo, in this way, you immediately arrange for the aircraft factory to be relocated to Qiqihar...... No, move to Anda County, the town of Saltu in Anda County, where in the future will be our new aircraft R&D center. ”

"Yes."

"Also, bring all the children who are trying to fly, you ask Master Li if he is willing to come to Heilongjiang and open the swallow gate to Heilongjiang, if he is unwilling, then bring the orphans who have been adopted over the years, and also in Saltu, establish a junior military academy, which will be called Saltu Junior Military Academy."

"Yes, Marshal." Luo Haiquan said.

"Our aircraft development plan and four types of aircraft, now we will definitely not be able to develop all of them into production, maybe only one of them, if there are enough funds, we may develop two, but in addition to other aircraft, I will also invest in research and development, which represents a research direction. I'll give you money, conditions, people, and you don't think about anything else, you just need to study it carefully. Wang Maoru said.

Luo Haiquan was pleasantly surprised: "What does Da Shuai mean that we can study casually?" ”

Wang Maoru said: "Theoretically, it is possible, but if I find that I have wasted too much, I will kill you." Luo Haiquan hurriedly shrunk his neck, and Wang Maoru said: "Okay, after the aircraft factory is relocated to Saltu, it can no longer be called Huaxing Aircraft Factory, it is called Saltu Air Base." ”

"Air Force?" Luo Haiquan was surprised, this handsome man is really different, there is actually an air force? Could it be that a few of their planes can form an air force?

"Yes, Air Force!" Wang Maoru waved his arms and said, "Air Force, I want to build the world's first air force." (Note: At this time, the world's mainstream media believed that the Air Force was only a subsidiary department of the Army, and until World War II, there were countries that allocated the Air Force to the Army and Navy as auxiliary departments.) ）

After Luo Haiquan got the order, he immediately returned to Beijing to arrange the relocation of Huaxing Group Aircraft Factory, which was not a small move, which naturally alarmed the Beiyang government, Xu Shuzheng shouted that Huaxing Aircraft Company was not allowed to relocate, but Huaxing is private, how do you care? Besides, now Duan Qirui needs Wang Maoru's support, and it is not appropriate to offend Wang Maoru, the overseer. Why does he need Wang Maoru's support, because at this time, the dispute between the government and the court is intensifying.

The starting point of the dispute between the government and the court lies in the personal vindictiveness of Sun Hongyi, chief of internal affairs of the presidential office, and Xu Shuzheng, secretary general of the State Council. Sun Hongyi was born in the League, and Sun Wen and Huang Xing had a very good personal relationship, and when he was against Yuan, he said one of his "Crying Letters to the Fathers of the Northern Fellow Countrymen" vividly, quite like Chen Lin wrote for Yuan Shao to scold Cao Cao's "Asking Cao Yuanwen" style.

After the second republic, he was recommended by President Li Yuanhong and Vice President Feng Guozhang as Minister of Internal Affairs. But this person has sharp teeth, sharp mouth, no one in his eyes, no one is around, black and white, President Li is generous and not as knowledgeable as him, but others are different, this Xu Shuzheng is different. Xu Shuzheng was difficult for him for a long time because of Wang Maoru's title of a martial general, and Wang Maoru was a gift and a favor, which made Xu Da let go of the second minister. When these two people met, they really met Mai Mang. Xu Shuzheng belongs to the master of the State Council under one person and above ten thousand people, and the size of the State Council is all sent to the Secretary-General Xu Shuzheng first, and then to Duan Qirui for processing, it can be said that the nominal president at this time is Li Yuanhong, but in fact the country is governed by Duan Qirui, the general manager, and Duan Qirui put all his trust on Xu Shuzheng. It can be seen that at this time, Xu Shuzheng is basically in charge of all matters in the country, and how much power Xu Shuzheng should have.

Sun Hongyi is a person who even Li Yuanhong often feels a headache, and Xu Shuzheng is known as the second celebrity of the "General Manager", so whenever the State Council sends the official seal to the presidential palace (the official seal needs to be stamped with the presidential seal to be legally effective and issue a decree), Sun Hongyi either rejects it or tampers with it.

Again, there was a break between Xu Shuzheng and Sun Hongyi's meeting at the State Council. Horn, Sun Hongyi accused Xu Shuzheng of not even participating in politics because he was not qualified to participate in a meeting like ours for high-level political participation. Xu Shuzheng is Duan Qirui's secretary and confidant, a staff member, who was directly appointed by Duan Qirui as the secretary general of the State Council, and is not an elected legislator.

Xu Shuzheng was so angry that although he was the secretary general of the State Council, he had been in the army for a long time and had no influence among the parliamentarians, so he was not elected during the general election, so it was also a special case of the State Council, and the only person who had not received a single vote became the secretary general of the State Council. Xu Shuzheng's character of being angry can not stand this, so he revealed that Sun Hongyi privately disclosed state news to the newspaper, which is true, but this kind of person often likes to find faults, and he sells himself everywhere, and as a result, he reveals some news about the State Council and the Presidential Palace to the newspaper. So sometimes without waiting for the country to release any news, the newspaper office learns the news first. Sun Hongyi was also one of the leaders of the Progressive Party, and after a conflict with Liang Qichao, he led a group of people to quit the Progressive Party and join the Kuomintang, and gradually became the backbone of the northern faction of the Kuomintang (Note 1).

One of these two people is the second-in-command of the Beiyang Anhui faction who is in the limelight, and the other is the leader of the northern faction of the Kuomintang. (Note 2)

(Note 1, also known as the Xiaosun faction, headed by Sun Hongyi, is also known as the Taoyuan faction because it often holds meetings in Taoyuan, Beijing)

(Note 2 Li Dazhao was a student of Sun Hongyi, and later Li Dazhao defected to the Soviet Union and was arrested by Zhang Zuolin for organizing and planning a riot. The real Li Dazhao is not a great man in the history books, he is a hardcore Soviet fan, and believes that only the Soviet model can save China) (to be continued......)
