889. Deterring civil war
The strategic reconnaissance plane had an eyebrow, and Bai Shujie finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He now has to admit that the development of science and technology has its own unique laws.
After the Americans developed the Flying Fortress B-17, they still continued to tap the development potential of this bomber, and finally came up with the "Super Flying Fortress", which was later the B-29 of Megatron!
Bai Shujie's basic guiding ideology this time was originally to use the carrying capacity of the B-17 to transform two reconnaissance planes. Unexpectedly, Mengen and these scientists were unwilling to follow the old path of others, but effectively learned from the experience of others, and even put the B-29 out in advance.
According to Mun's briefing, the basic performance of this high-altitude, high-speed, and long-range reconnaissance plane made by their expert group is slightly better than that of the real American in the future.
Because of this, Bai Shujie has no reason to be unhappy. It's a pity that Meng En didn't let Bai Shujie feast his eyes in advance, and he must be finally verified before asking him, the commander-in-chief, to personally accept it.
However, Munn did not let Bai Shujie be too disappointed, and brought him into a large hangar dug up, so that Bai Shujie once again admired the creative spirit of the scientists.
A row of 6 "Chinooks" is placed on a huge long platform, and more than 30 skilled workers are busy in it.
Munn said excitedly: "Commander-in-chief, according to your instructions, this twin-engine, twin-rotor monster helicopter that surpasses the heavy transport aircraft has finally succeeded!" They are installing early warning radars, communication equipment, checking instrumentation. Delivery will be available in three days! ”
The fuselage is 16.29 meters long, 5.68 meters high, 3.61 meters wide, the rotor diameter is 16.83 meters, which can be folded, and the four-wheeled fixed reinforced landing gear is adopted, the two front landing gears are two-wheeled, and the two rear landing gear are single-wheeled. The empty weight is 9.75 tons, the internal effective load is 8.5 tons, the external normal load is 10.4 tons, and the maximum load is 15.5 tons. ”
"The maximum level flight speed is 318 km/h, the cruising speed is 248 km/h, the maximum sea level climb rate is 6.9 m/s, and the practical ceiling is 5800 m; The mission radius is 820 kilometers, and the transfer range is 2270 kilometers. It is possible to transport 70 soldiers, as well as 18 wounded stretchers and corresponding paramedics. ”
"According to your original request, there is a newly developed 30mm six-barreled phalanx on both sides of the belly, a 12.7mm aviation machine gun on the left and right sides of the cabin, and a 30mm aircraft gun in the tail."
"The cabin is divided into side doors and a rear hatch canopy, which side can be used depending on the content of the transport. In the middle of the cabin is a 1.2-meter-diameter movable cover, on which is a pylons with a carrying capacity of 13 tons to carry cargo, and a winch with a lifting capacity of 16 tons, which can airdrop materials and personnel, and can also carry out rescue. ”
Bai Shujie held back the excitement in his heart and said sincerely for the first time: "Mr. Munn, I want to express my highest respect to you, and to ask you to represent me, to your group!" For the development and production personnel of reconnaissance aircraft and helicopters, the General Headquarters will definitely give heavy awards in recognition of your great achievements! ”
Another winter is coming, and Bai Shujie feels that everything is better than ever. After the little devil was his own general, he drew two carts and a horse, but there was no movement for three months.
6 twin-rotor super helicopters have been accepted by Bai Shujie and named "Crazy Dragon Heavy Helicopter";
The two strategic reconnaissance planes finally completed the actual combat flight and brought back the camera data near Tokyo as a verification; Bai Shujie opened his mouth: "Named the Nulong strategic bomber, I hope to be able to produce 12 within a year." ”
In addition to being happy, Bai Shujie also fulfilled his promise and rewarded the crew with $3.6 million.
Nulong strategic bomber: wingspan 43.05 meters, total length 30.18 meters, total height 8.46 meters, wing area 161.27 square meters. 4 quadruple 28-cylinder air-cooled star engines with a take-off power of 3,600 horsepower and an instantaneous maximum power of 4,000 horsepower.
The maximum speed is 680 kilometers per hour (altitude 6400 meters, 9.5 tons of bombs), the economic cruising speed of 6400 meters is 450 kilometers per hour, and the practical ceiling is 9800 meters. Practical combat radius 3250 km. The climb to 6,400 meters took 34 minutes.
The empty weight is 3.4 tons, 8 closed fuel tanks in series, 32 tons of fuel loaded, the maximum take-off weight is 64 tons, and the maximum range is 6,500 kilometers (refueling in the bomb bay tank).
The load is divided into a full tank with a long-range load of 8 tons and a typical bomb load of 9 tons; High-explosive bombs and incendiary bombs were mixed, with a bomb load of 10 tons. Two-thirds of the fuel range is 4,200 kilometers, and the medium-range load is 16 tons.
There is one 30mm gun in the upper part of the nose, two 20mm guns in parallel in the tail, and two 12.7mm spare machine guns in the pressurized cabin of the middle fuselage. The nose and lower jaw are closed early warning radars (including friend or foe identification systems), irradiating fire control radars, and gyroscope bomb sights. The crew has a fixed number of 9 people.
A good mood is always used to break, Bai Shujie finally prepared to take the time to drive his "Crazy Dragon Helicopter" for a ride, but he didn't expect the unexpected to happen again.
On December 20, 1939, Chiang Kai-shek issued and implemented the "Measures for Handling the Problem of Different Parties", and officially began to clean up the "different parties" in China in accordance with the agreement with Prime Minister Fumiro Konoe of the Little Devil Cabinet.
On December 25, 1939, Zhu Zhu. De, Peng De. Huai, Lin. Biao, He. Long, Liu Bo. Cheng and other senior generals jointly sent a telegram to the whole country, opposing the guns and calling for unanimous resistance against Japan.
Bai Shujie received a comprehensive report on the situation sent by Xiao Lamei, and found that history was still moving forward according to his own inherent pace, and he suddenly felt a little powerless.
However, seeing that the smell of gunpowder from the civil war was getting stronger and stronger, Bai Shujie felt that he should do something, so he grabbed the phone and shouted: "Order: The Air Force Command will form two capable crews, and two strategic reconnaissance planes will be ready for the first large-depth reconnaissance!" ”
Air Force Commander Zhang Nianzu asked on the phone: "May I ask the commander-in-chief, what flight path do we need to set and what content do we use in the chart?" ”
"Didn't you see the briefing forwarded by the headquarters?" Bai Shujie's tone was cold: "Jiang and the little devil are eyebrows, and they want to provoke a civil war. This kind of scum can't be justified if he doesn't teach him a lesson. ”
"I've had a box of antibiotics and another 100,000 leaflets. Your charts follow the Yangtze River basin and fly all the way to Chongqing. First of all, drop leaflets, and then airdrop medicines, which is called Enwei and used together. ”
"On this way, it will pass more than 1,200 kilometers through the enemy-occupied area, and the whole journey will be more than 2,300 kilometers, and it will also be intercepted by artillery fire over Chongqing. So tell the crew that you must not be careless. ”
Zhang Nianzu was silent for a moment before he said: "The little devil's fighter jets are not good at night fighting, since they have to cross the enemy-occupied area, our two crews simply set off in the middle of the night, so that they can fly to Chongqing tomorrow morning." ”
"How to make the battle plan is a matter for you Air Force experts, and I will not interfere." Bai Shujie said in a deep voice: "I just have one request, at about nine o'clock tomorrow morning, the plane will arrive over Chongqing and drop leaflets." By the way, I brought two 2-ton high-explosive bombs and threw them on the presidential palace building in Nanjing City when I came back! ”
At half past nine o'clock in the morning of December 26, 1939, Bai Shujie received that the bomber crew had completed its mission and was on the way back, and immediately issued a telegram: "I hereby warn the Chongqing government: If you insist on going your own way, Lao Tzu will not hesitate to burn Chongqing to the ground and turn you all into ashes!" ”
"Today's drop is a warning letter and medicine, which is to give you one last chance to choose. If you are bent on resisting Japan, Lao Tzu will provide 100,000 sticks of penicillin worth $1.5 million to the anti-Japanese soldiers every month. ”
"If you dare to start a civil war, the next time Lao Tzu will not come over with two planes, but ten, hundred! Lao Tzu is the first to kill you strange parties who have forgotten their ancestors! You must already know what happened to the fire in Tokyo, the capital of the little devils! Lao Tzu casually stretched out a little finger and burned more than 200,000 people to death! ”
"Yan Lao Xi'er from Shanxi, you fucking danced on three eggs, and you forgot about Lao Tzu. Don't you know all the bullshit pickled things you did in Jinxi? Lao Tzu is very unhappy now, you know? You're going to fucking break the connection with the little devil again, and destroy your things that don't take more than a minute. ”
"Lao Tzu is here to warn Wang Jingwei again: I heard that you are preparing to betray the government, you should be careful with Lao Tzu, taking your dog's life is no more troublesome for Lao Tzu than pinching a bed bug to death. I'll give you a little warning today, I hope you pull back from the precipice! If it weren't for the fear of harming innocent people, the city of Nanjing would have been a piece of rubble! ”
Lao Tzu also warned all the officers of the little devil: Hebian Zhengsan shelled Wanping, deliberately provoked an incident, and was killed by Lao Tzu's artillery. Terauchi Shouichi, Tani Toshio, Tokugawa Yoshitoshi, Nagumo Tadaichi, Minamijiro, Nakamura Kotaro, Ushijima Minoru , Otaka Kamezo, these lieutenant generals, were all slaughtered by Lao Tzu. ”
"Since you call Lao Tzu the devil, then you should know it in your hearts. If you surrender to the Chinese people now, Lao Tzu will be merciful and spare you from death. If you continue to do evil in Lao Tzu's homeland, Lao Tzu swears to turn your ancestral graves into sea sand! Bai Shujie. ”
After scolding all the guys who were upset when he thought about it, Bai Shujie felt that he was in a much better mood and decided to continue his grand plan - to fly his own helicopter to the sky to see.
In his previous life, he drove a Z-9, but the American "Chinook" saw it once, and it was a photo! What belongs to me now, if you don't toss it yourself, it seems a little too much.
As a result, in front of the door of the office - Xiao Lamei had already received the report, so she brought a platoon of soldiers and surrounded Bai Shujie's office!
"You want to fly a plane, but there are no doors! I've asked everyone, and not a single one agrees! Xiao Lamei stood in front of the door with her hands on her hips: "It's just lawless!" Wang Xinlan is not here, will you let the ducks go? It's against you, do you really think you're the king of the mountain? If you have the ability, you can call me out and try it! ”
When Bai Shujie saw this formation, he knew that he had committed public anger on his whims, and now he could only smile: "What do you look like, ah?" I just felt bored and panicked, and went out for a walk. Really, I definitely don't go to the airport. I'll go to the command of the Navy, then it's all right, right? ”
"No, you can't!" Xiao Lamei didn't give an inch: "There are already 16 helicopters on the navy's side, do you want to open the back door over there?" If you have anything, just say it, I called Zhang Bingyang and asked them to come over and say, what are you doing running around as a commander-in-chief? ”
After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
