Comrade, Your Ingredients Are Too Complicated

Since the outbreak of the all-out Anti-Japanese War, people in war zones and occupied areas have always had conflicting feelings about various festivals.

Everyone wants to reunite with their families and visit relatives and friends, but the enemy will not let everyone celebrate the festival honestly. The Japanese often used this special time to launch raids and raids on many base areas.

Even a commander at the level of a brigade commander almost capsized due to the Spring Festival in the original timeline.

However, the situation has improved a lot now. At least the people living in Shanxi and Suiyuan can welcome the arrival of 1942 happily.

The folks know one thing very well. Judging from the current momentum of the Eighth Route Army, the enemies entrenched in North China will be pushed into the sea sooner or later.

  ·······

 Taiyuan, headquarters of the Eighth Route Army.

 In a joyous atmosphere, the time has come to January 8th.

 Today is a very special day for Huang He. Because it involves the decision-making option of establishing the Air Force Three Division, it was finally successfully unlocked in the Awakening of the Brave Tiger system.

“Domestic bomber manufacturing: After mastering the manufacturing technology of single-engine aircraft, we can then begin to try to develop multi-engine heavy bombers and use them in ground support missions.

 Effect: After 180 days, you will be able to unlock all bombers of the Royal Air Force.

 Hint: Bombers include naval bombers, tactical bombers, and strategic bombers, but do not include de Havilland Venom, Canberra tactical bombers, and Warrior strategic bombers.

If you want to develop and produce jet bombers, you need to unlock other front-end scientific research projects and decisions. "

Although the unlocking cycle of this project is a full six months, which is three times longer than other decisions, the content and rewards are definitely worth the money.

 After all, it contains Miss Qiu’s sedan chair: a strategic bomber. In a sense, these weapons of mass murder symbolize the coverage of truth in a country in the current era.

  After closing the doors and windows and instructing his guards to guard the door, Huang He couldn't wait to concentrate on opening the system in his mind.

“You can fool people for fun in your spare time, but you can attack in wartime! From today on, I officially declare that the term Siberian One-Way Express will never appear in the history of the Chinese people again!”

 “Hey, let me see what big treasure is unlocked this time.”

 The first aircraft type that catches the eye must be the strategic bomber with four engines. They are the biggest gain this time.

Different from the previous fighter jets and close support aircraft, this technology tree does not use a mess of outdated equipment to fill up the number. Even the initial model is full of gold.

At the top, it is the nighttime master of the European battlefield that only entered service in October 1940: the Halifax strategic bomber!

Halifax is obviously different in appearance from its good brother Lancaster. Its body is slightly thicker, and the overall design details are relatively wild.

Different from the early models currently used by the British Royal Air Force, the Halifax that will be equipped by the Eighth Route Army Air Force can be said to be far ahead.

 It did not use the underpowered Merlin X, nor did it make do with the underpowered Hercules.

As a high-end product provided by the system, its engine is the Hercules 100 type that was only developed in 1943, and it is an upgraded black technology that increases the range.

 When fully loaded with aerial bombs and self-defense weapons, the Eighth Route Army's Halifax has an unparalleled maximum range of 3,014 kilometers.

 This means that if we do not consider the situation of being intercepted by enemy aircraft midway. The Air Force 3rd Division formed in the future can start from the eastern coastal cities of the Republic of China and directly attack the Japanese homeland.

As for airborne weapons, the Halifax strategic bomber has a 7-meter-long main bomb bay in the belly position and six additional small bomb rooms on the wings.

 It is designed in this way so that it can carry a total of more than six tons of various types of aerial bombs.

 It is worth mentioning that the huge magazine can also carry giant bombs such as Goblet. Seeing this, Huang He had already imagined the miserable situation of the Zhudao fleet.

 Big bang! Cool!

Yamaguchi Duowen bombed the battleship of the Pacific Fleet. As an absolutely impartial referee, I, Mr. Huang, bombed the battleship of your United Fleet. It is very reasonable.

If there is any problem with Halifax, it is that its self-defense firepower is slightly insufficient.

Compared with the Chinese aerial hedgehog, this strategic bomber is only equipped with nine ancestral 7.7mm Brownings, located at the nose, back and tail.

And due to the large size of the magazine in the belly, there is no space in the belly to accommodate a spherical turret.

Once the enemy's interception formation attacks from below, Halifax will have no ability to fight back. This is why the British try to use it to perform night missions.

However, the above shortcomings will not be a big problem for the future Air Force 3rd Division.

If the headquarters wants to carry out a long-range strategic bombing mission, the First Air Division will definitely send elites to accompany them throughout the flight and perform **** missions. Judging from the current technology tree and strength of the mainland and Hainan, there should be no troops capable of intercepting a formation composed of a large number of mosquitoes and handsome warriors.

When they get close to the offshore, there are even more fire-fighting forces coming to respond.

 There is a Mars factory, it is so arrogant.

Not convinced?

Then if you, Yamamoto Qixianba, have the ability, use your wealth to see if the fortress is stronger or your combined fleet is stronger.

What’s more, the first batch of Lancasters will also roll off the production line in 70 days. In the worst case, we can just hand over the less difficult tasks to the Halifax formation and distribute them internally.

 For Huang He, the only thing he is worried about now is what to do with Mr. Liu.

 Judging from the current situation, unless the Yonghu system is awakened and a comprehensive upgrade is carried out, the future Air Force may really lose Liu Ye, a veteran.

 After a moment, Huang He shook his head and shook the messy thoughts out of his mind.

“I remember that the Halifax led by the British is still facing the problem of stalling of the landing gear and fins. It seems that the Eighth Route Army has several more technologies that can be sold to the fat man.”

“Hey, I’m such a good comrade that I can’t even find with a lantern. I wholeheartedly want to help my allies save money.”

  ·······

 After finishing his complaint, Huang turned his attention to the naval bomber technology tree aside. But just by looking at it, he felt like he had brain congestion.

“My dear mother, what is this?”

"How good is the carrier-based aircraft in the UK, so that your Swordfish can also fight as the main force? Can you fight? You can't fight! You don't have the strength at all!"

“If we go on, we will lose ninety-seven ship attacks and ninety-nine ship explosions. It’s really shameless!”

Who is a good person who still uses biplanes as the main force of aircraft carriers in the middle of World War II? What's even more outrageous is that this old aircraft actually remained in service until the final victory day when it was retired.

Even if Ba Ye’s first aircraft carrier is the Bane, he can’t fool people with biplanes.

Even in France in 1939, the navy used the high-end and elegant Breguet 810, which could reach speeds almost twice as fast as the Swordfish.

 It can only be said that the uniqueness of the Atlantic theater and the weak air defense systems of the three German navies have made this torpedo aircraft possible.

Whenever it operates in the Pacific theater, it will definitely be hoisted up and defeated by HNA's zero warfare.

Perhaps considering that this vintage machine that was put into service in 1934 is really unavailable, the Awakening Yonghu system actually directly opened up the production rights in a very user-friendly manner.

Of course, if you want to have a production line in reality, you need to unlock the scientific research slot.

 After the Swordfish, there is the Big Mackerel, which is also a bi-wing torpedo bomber. All I can say is that Daiying is really dedicated to the biplane and has a feeling of never giving up.

 Fortunately, the Eighth Route Army currently does not have a navy, so there is no need to consider the issue of carrier-based aircraft for the time being.

By the time Lao Dai fulfills the terms of the Lend-Lease Act and delivers the Bane to the newly formed army, Huanghe will most likely have already equipped the Sea Fang and Sea Hornet with carrier-based aircraft technology.

  ·······

 The last aircraft type is the tactical bomber. The top of the technology tree is a twin-engine bomber that entered service in 1936.

The existence of this thing is very versatile. It can be dispatched by the Royal Air Force to perform night bombing missions, and can also be used by the Coastal Command for maritime reconnaissance and anti-submarine and anti-ship warfare.

 In Operation Market Garden, part of Whitley took on the task of transporting paratroopers and was a member of the fire brigade who replenished the troops wherever they were lacking.

It seems that he learned about Huanghe's idea of ​​bombing Benzi's homeland before Doolittle.

 The model provided by the Awakening Yonghu system this time is MK.5, which is a version specially transformed into a long-range bomber.

Its maximum range is 3917 kilometers, which is further than the Halifax and the early model Lancaster. If there are no enemy planes on the scheduled route to intercept, the soldiers can even take off from Jinan and go straight to Tokyo.

As a tactical bomber, the Whitley's bomb load is indeed somewhat deficient. Its internal magazine can only carry 12 110kg aerial bombs, and there are two 227kg bombs on the wing pylons.

However, considering that napalm is more effective in Tokyo, the above disadvantages can be ignored. (End of chapter)
