New Warlords 1909

"Si...Commander!" Just as Hua Fei was about to pin a brand new first-class honorary citizen medal on the female classmate's chest, the female classmate suddenly raised her head and said, "Commander, you...you still Didn't read... read my leave application form, you... wait a minute!"

"No need!" Hua Fei said after pinning the medal, "I believe you won't deceive me. If you really deceived me, then I can only blame myself for being stupid! You are a good person, believe me, keep it Your strengths, you are the best!"

Not only the female classmate waited to return to school, but did not believe that the medal on her chest was real.All the students present were so regretful that their thighs were swollen.The first-class civil honor medal can be obtained just because of a simple leave note.Why, why didn't I ask for leave!

Afterwards, countless newspapers and media reported on this scene.Some newspapers lamented that in front of Commander Hua, such a massive demonstration was invisible just because of a few simple words, and the prestige and charm of Commander Hua had reached an unprecedented level.

Some newspapers also commented that the demonstrations and protests in the autonomous region under the command of Commander Hua are superfluous.Hua Fei slapped sideways, and borrowed the leave note to warn all the students from the side.A medal of honor is not just a simple leave form.He represents order, rules, law and good behavior.

The comments also highly praised Hua Fei's behavior of ignoring the leave form at the end, because the original meaning of this medal is not the leave form, because his Hua Commander's trust is better than a leave form.In fact, how could such a female classmate dare to lie to Commander Hua.

Not to mention that female classmate has become a role model focus of the media, and because of this incident, the order of the major schools has been significantly improved. The means and methods of education, even university presidents like them, are ashamed of themselves.

At that time, no one knew that this was the only first-class honorary citizen medal awarded by Hua Fei himself.

196 Big Blue Bird - 197 Decisive Attack

Ruo came to report the good news, as if guessing that Hua Fei was about to leave Shanghai. Just after the successful test flight of the new H-2 bomber, Feng Ru immediately rushed to the headquarters to find Hua Fei.It's just that Feng Ru, who was buried in the production and flight test of the aircraft, didn't know that Hua Fei was lying in the Oriental Holiday Hotel by the Lujiazui River in Pudong when the new aircraft took the test flight in the morning.

Since the establishment of the Institute of Science and Industry, Hua Fei has given great enthusiasm and attention to the support of the Institute.Not only are the treatment of those foreigners unimaginable, but the various research environments and equipment are also extremely satisfying.Of course, with such favorable conditions and environment, as more and more well-known engineers come to apply, the selection and conditions of the institute are becoming more and more strict.Even if you are one of the first to join the academy, if you have no real talent or just want to get by, you have no chance.

The research progress brought about by the launch of the Industrial Research Institute, coupled with the help given by the Chinese Academy of Sciences in some aspects, has made the work of the Aircraft Design and Research Institute progress by leaps and bounds, extremely fast.In particular, the rapid progress of various industrial processes has enabled the rapid completion of the research and production of new piston engines in the Diamond Engine Factory.

Although the eccentric great scientist Nikola Tesla was not interested in their research design of this piston engine, he turned to his own research design of a bladeless turbine engine.However, some sketches and ideas that Tesla left in the engine research room before gave great inspiration to the researchers.With Huafei's approval and funding, while studying the existing power engine, they also formed another research team to start pre-researching the turboprop engine.

A month ago, the diamond engine finally completed the production experiment of the first 280-power piston engine, and after half a month of reliability tests and improvements, it was installed on the new aircraft that had been designed long ago. The design sketches I showed him a long time ago.In just over a year, many designs and concepts have been improved with the experience and lessons brought by various aircraft combat and the joining of excellent aircraft designers such as Anthony Fokker.Lacking high-horsepower engines, Feng Ru and the others used multiple engines to install experiments. It can be said that the H-1C bomber is to some extent an experimental transitional model.

As soon as the Diamond II engine came out, it was quickly loaded onto the aircraft that had already been prepared.Not only did the flight test go smoothly, but the data obtained far exceeded the budget of Feng Ru and other designers.So after completing some work after the test flight, Feng Ru immediately rushed to the headquarters to report the good news to Hua Fei.In Feng Ru's view, Feng Ru has accompanied the National Defense Forces to this day since he was entrusted with important tasks by Hua Fei four or five years ago.Although he has never been to the front line, the aircraft he designed and manufactured have repeatedly achieved remarkable success in several battles.The aircraft not only received great respect and attention within the National Defense Forces, but also promoted the development of the world's military aircraft and the renewal of concepts.

Feng Ru, who originally learned flying from abroad and returned to China, now personally leads the young people in his own country to create aviation miracles one after another, so that China's airplanes are not only no longer lagging behind other countries in the world, but in some aspects , even far surpassing it.Especially the emergence of this new type of aircraft, at least a few years behind the aircraft of other advanced countries.

All of this is certainly due to the hard work of Feng Ru and his team, but Feng Ru knows very well that without the full support of Commander Hua, China's aircraft would not be in the situation it is today.The so-called Maxima and Bole are indispensable, and Feng Ru has a similar strange feeling.Now that the design and production of this new type of aircraft has been successfully completed, Feng Ru feels psychologically that he has finally lived up to Hua Fei's expectations.

Since a series of incidents occurred in the concession, and the public concession belongs to the prosperous center of Shanghai, it is indeed inappropriate to set up the airport here.Therefore, without affecting aircraft production, both the Wing Loong Aircraft Factory and the Diamond Engine Factory have begun to relocate gradually.

Both the aircraft factory and the engine factory have been moved to the vicinity of the Tianma Mountain military base, and a new aircraft factory and engine factory have started to be built slowly in Luzhou Prefecture, the headquarters of Huafei.

Hua Fei, Feng Ru and others drove to the factory area of ​​the Wing Loong aircraft factory together.At this time, the factory area is completely transparent.Five brand new planes were parked on the lawn in front of the aircraft factory hangar.The main production technicians and designers of the factory lined up in front of the plane.It seemed as if he knew that Hua Fei would definitely come here.

"H-2 bomber. According to our multiple design improvements. Coupled with the success of the new engine. It has completely exceeded our expected estimated value.

机长2226米。高79米。翼展达39米。实用升限达2900米。最大速度达到１50公里/~小时。装备四台280马力地金刚石二型发动机。空重3700千克。最大起飞重量6600千克。最大载弹量达１900多千克。续航力最长可达8-10个小时。”

"Machine guns can also be installed on the plane. The standard crew is 3-6. However, according to our actual enemy situation, it is rare to encounter enemy fighter jets. This is very different from the European battlefield. So we only equip 2 on the plane. Louis aviation light machine gun. Not even prepared. It can also be based on actual bombing needs. Make a light bomber equipped with only 2 engines. To reduce the range and ammunition load. In exchange for speed and maneuverability."

"Similarly. In order to increase the amount of ammunition and actual combat needs. We minimized and thinned the protective armor at key positions in the original H-1CC. Although we built a large aluminum factory with the German Dura company. But because of the war The Dura company has shrunk funds. Many investments have been withdrawn. As a result, we have no suitable aluminum alloys to use. It also prevents some achievements of the aluminum alloy research group from being put into practice."

"The fuselage frame of the H-2 bomber is made of more mature alloy reinforced steel. It not only makes the fuselage stronger, but also reduces the overall weight by [-]. The fuselage and wings still use a lot of wood. And also abandon the previous metal Skin. Use tarpaulin skin. And still use a more mature and practical steel wire tension design. Strengthen the firmness of the wing."

As Feng Ru walked and introduced, Hua Fei had an intuitive understanding of this new type of bomber.It can be said that in terms of technology, the H-2 bomber does not have much innovative breakthroughs, and it is completely based on practicality and actual combat.The biggest technological breakthrough is the horsepower of the new engine

The development of the aviation industry brought about will be inestimable.

The success of the new engine is not as simple as designing a powerful engine for Huafei and even the development of the entire military industry.The reason why the Diamond II engine is so difficult to produce is not because of the design level of the designers, but because of the industrial technology level of the autonomous region.

After years of development, a complete set of engine supporting industries with the Diamond Engine Factory as the core has been initially established, laying a good foundation for the entire country's land power industry in the future.What pleased Hua Fei the most was that the domestic production rate of this 280-horsepower diamond engine had reached over 90%.

The bomb load of the H-2 bomber reached more than 900 kilograms, that is, nearly two tons of bomb load.Its endurance time of 8-10 hours and cruising speed of more than [-] kilometers per hour mean that this type of bomber will have a combat bombing radius of more than half a thousand kilometers. If it takes off with a light load, it may even fly to Beijing and form a powerful Its strategic deterrence is simply indescribable.

A total of twelve H-2 bombers were produced for the first batch of test flights, which is the size of a whole squadron. Feng Ru probably expected that the war would end soon. If the aircraft were not produced as soon as possible, this type of bomber might not be able to participate in the war against Japan in Shandong. up.

Hua Fei held the hands of the on-site technicians and test pilots one by one, expressing his gratitude to the excited crowd.Three pilots have died and seven pilots have been injured in test flights since aviation began.Without their efforts, the aviation industry in the autonomous region would never have developed like it is today.So in the queue, Hua Fei chatted the longest with several injured test pilots, including a test pilot in a wheelchair.And pushing the wheelchair of one of the test pilots, he walked slowly in front of a row of planes.

"Huh!" Hua Fei let out a long breath. How much money and painstaking efforts Hua Fei had spent on aviation, and now it is finally bearing fruit, making China's aviation industry not only not lagging behind the world, but because of its advanced foresight, making China The various types of data of this type of H-2 bomber are completely comparable to the British 'Handley Page O/400' and the legendary German 'Giant' heavy bomber at the end of World War I.The technology has been ahead for three years.

"Okay, okay!" Hua Fei was so happy that he seemed to only know how to say yes, and then sighed, "I really want to thank you, not only me, not only the National Defense Forces, but the people of the entire autonomous region, and the entire country of China. Thank you! With such a sharp weapon, our military deterrence will reach a whole new level."

"If we had this kind of aircraft one day earlier, when the little Japanese warships surrounded us in Shanghai, we would dispatch our bluebirds, load a few tons of bombs, and sink the ****."

Because this row of planes were all painted in blue and white camouflage colors, Hua Fei affectionately called them Blue Birds for a while. The nickname of the H-2 bomber was born since then. Because the English translation of blue bird is blubird, so in Western countries, this bomber is called the BB bomber, which is a later story.

After hearing Hua Fei's words, Feng Ru and other engineers and technicians who followed Hua Fei fell silent.

It has to be said that the blockade of Shanghai by the Japanese naval fleet did give them great stimulation. The H-1CC can no longer fully meet the needs of Huafei, so as soon as the diamond engine comes out, twelve aircrafts are processed and produced at the same time day and night, and assembled by a group of the most skilled workers, it only takes about ten days. time, it's all done.

"The air force has accumulated a lot of experience in combat, and some of the experience is very helpful for you to improve. I just want to remind you when you win. Although you cancel the armor design entirely for actual combat, you We must take into account the air situation in the European War, and produce aircraft suitable for the level of fierce air combat in the European War as soon as possible. Because our opponents, the Japanese, have also begun to impose the construction of the air force. It is foreseeable that in the near future, our air supremacy, It will be a huge challenge.”

"Bombers have played a great role in several battles. It is normal for you to focus on the design and development of bombers. But I want everyone to understand that without air supremacy, the survival rate of bombers is very high." Very low."

"I know that your all-metal aircraft development has not fallen behind. You have to understand that that is the mainstream trend in the future! I hope you can continue to create new brilliance and don't be satisfied with the immediate achievements. Because we are not much ahead , once we stop, our advantages will disappear. Faster, higher, farther, our goal is just the first step. Our speed is supersonic, and our altitude is [-] meters At high altitude, our distance is the global reach. I believe that one day, we will be able to do it, and we will be able to manufacture such a heavy and large aircraft that is unbelievable today."

Unlike the students and young people who were facing the parade, although Hua Fei was extremely excited in his heart at this time, his words were very calm.And the designers who followed behind also relieved from the excitement and showed contemplative expressions.In particular, Hua Fei first proposed the concept of supersonic speed, [-]-meter altitude, and global reach in front of them, which made many designers look obsessed.This is not only Hua Feidi's dream, but also their ideal, but they are not sure, can such an airplane appear in their lifetime?

Although Hua Fei doesn't know how to design airplanes, he doesn't even know anything about mechanical design.But no one can replace Feng Ru's respect for Hua Fei.Hua Fei not only saw the value of aircraft in that era, but also strategically brought him from Guangdong to Shanghai, and started a comprehensive aircraft design and research work.I dare not say anything else, but Hua Fei's strategic foresight and imagination alone often amaze Feng Ru.Before Feng Ru tried to use a large amount of metal and aluminum to make the aircraft, it was influenced by some concepts and sketches of Hua Fei.It's just that the engine horsepower was too small at that time, coupled with some insurmountable technical obstacles in the design, so not only was the cost extremely high, but the performance was not as good as imagined.

Feng Ru carefully kept Hua Fei's concept of supersonic speed and global reach in his heart, and he knew Hua Fei quite well.Among other things, although the aircraft manufactured by the Wing Loong Aircraft Factory were far inferior to the current Bluebird bomber, they were considered advanced models in the Far East, and even in the world.However, Hua Fei still often asks questions about the design and research of new aircraft, which shows that he is by no means satisfied with the status quo.And just now, he mentioned this again

Hua Commander has his own considerations.

"Commander?" Feng Ru asked, "it's not difficult to add armor to the key parts, just sacrifice a little ammunition capacity and maneuverability. The commander proposed to have excellent fighters and bombers suitable for the European war. Do you want to export this aircraft to Europe?" ?”

Hua Fei took a look at Feng Ru, but in the end he didn't lie to him. He nodded and said, "That's right. After this aircraft is finalized, we will sell it to European countries immediately. I believe they will be very interested!"

"Commander, I don't know something!" Feng Ru expressed the confusion in her heart, "Whether it is our J-1C, H-1BB, or even H-1CC, they are already considered very advanced fighters. As the old saying goes, the country's sharp weapon It can be shown to others. We can continue to sell our other aircraft to other countries, why should we sell them the H-2 Bluebird!"

Hua Fei smiled, thought for a while, and said, "Do you think H-2 is advanced enough, and you want to hide him at home and cherish it? Don't we sell Bluebird bombers, so other countries can't develop this kind of aircraft?" ?The Shandong battlefield is bound to not last long, and the domestic war will have a period of rest. Although the H-2 is advanced, it cannot maintain this advancement for long. If it is not brought out, the Bluebird will be in our stingy and unreasonable hands. Under self-confidence, he loses his advantages and brilliant light.

You have designed such a precious aircraft, do you only want to hide it in your family and not show it to others?Remember, his sky, in Europe, can only bloom with brilliance and charm under the smoke of war. "

Everyone was silent, but judging from their eyes, why didn't they want the big guy that they spent so much effort to make to show off their might?It's just that Feng Ru's worries are extremely reasonable, and everyone has to bear the pain.Just after hearing what Hua Fei said, the knots in their hearts were relieved, and many people laughed even more happily.

What Hua Fei said was of course a reason, but there was something else he didn't say.For the previous aircraft, the export market has become saturated, which can be seen from the decline in the production output of the Wing Loong aircraft factory.Moreover, major countries that use fighter jets, such as Germany, the United Kingdom, and France, have purchased those aircraft blueprints and production rights, and have obtained a large number of domestic rights to improve production.Although Huafei is making a lot of money, but losing a large number of orders, it will not be able to drive related domestic industries, nor will it be able to train a large number of skilled production workers.

Another important point is, if these best killing weapons are not provided to them, how will the European war become more intense.The harder the European war is fought, the greater the damage will be to several old powers, and relatively, it will have a more profound impact on the rise of China. +When clams fight, fisherman wins.

Hua Fei not only wants to sell a large number of giant blue birds, but also to exchange for the relevant technical support and industrial development assistance he needs.God-given opportunity, if you miss it, you will be punished by God!

After chatting with the design engineers for a while, I told the management personnel of the Wing Loong Aircraft Factory to start production for me immediately after all the relevant data are finalized.As for this batch of aircraft of each squadron, they have to be given a performance stage to make a perfect advertisement.And this stage is Shandong!

I was going to visit Nikola Tesla, but it was getting late, and according to the adjutant, Tesla was very busy tinkering with his radio station.

It was night and early morning, Hua Fei set foot on the secret train to Shandong.Go with the train

Hua Fei smiled and thought for a while, "Do you think H-2 is advanced enough and you want to hide him at home and cherish yourself? Don't we sell the Bluebird bomber, so other countries can't develop it?" The Shandong battlefield is bound to not last long, and the domestic war will have a period of rest. Although the H-2 is advanced, it cannot maintain this advancement for long. If it is not produced, the Bluebird will be in our stingy Without self-confidence, he lost his advantages and brilliance. You designed such a precious aircraft, do you only want to hide him in your family and not show it to others? Remember, his sky is in Europe, in the smoke of war Only then can the brilliance and charm bloom.”
