New Warlords 1909

While Hua Fei was answering Edsy's questions.Also thinking about the same question.The purpose of Hua Fei to manufacture aircraft from the very beginning is very straightforward and simple.That's for fighting.That is for military use.But Hua Fei was just an army mercenary in his previous life.For the Air Force.Especially this primitive aircraft does not have much concept and memory.

He just knows.Want to realize the armed combat function of aircraft.It must be loaded with machine guns and bombs.As early as when discussing the design with Feng Ru and the others.They did experiments with the trainer aircraft of the flight academy.Pilots can indeed shoot pistols from the cockpit.But to put the machine gun on the plane.Then it must be solved when the bullet passes through the propeller.Possibility of hitting the blade.

Hua Fei was somewhat impressed by this.That is by adding a propeller synchronous shooting device.Whenever the paddle rotates into the firing path of the bullet.The device is automatically locked.Turn off machine gun fire.But although I understand the principles and methods.But Hua Fei didn't know how to design.Just say it and hand it over to Feng Ru and other mechanical technology experts for research.So since the Mattson light machine gun was shipped to Shanghai.Hua Fei sent a few to the Wing Loong Aircraft Factory.for their research.

But fighter jets are for Hua Fei.Not that eager.Because in the country.He has no concerns about air supremacy.And the bomber.For Hua Fei.Its role is obviously very significant and urgent.

Feng Ru and others used grenade throwing.Although the bombing function can be realized.But the effect is not obvious.Since there is no production of aerial bombs.So there is no way to talk about the introduction of imports.If a bomb is researched.The original aviation bomb.For Hua Fei.Obviously very important.

bomb.bomb!Is it modified with artillery shells?Or develop a bomb?and both questions are very difficult.How can modding be improved?How can there be talents in research and development?Those foreign technicians in the ammunition factory.I'm afraid there is no such level of technology.

The whole of Hefei is discussing the news of the aircraft.But Hua Fei returned to the military headquarters.Look through all the existing weapons and equipment information of countries in the world.Try to find some inspiration from it.

"Huh?" Suddenly.Hua Fei's eyes suddenly stopped on a picture.This is... this is? "Thunderbolts? Mortars? My God. I actually forgot about this strongest individual fire support weapon."

Hua Fei had been exposed to mortars in his previous life.But then the war.Mortars are rarely used anymore.But in history.Mortar lethality.Absolutely not inferior to any kind of weapon.Forged the prestige of the artillery family god of war.

The embryonic form of the mortar is the mortar.Since its first use in the Russo-Japanese War in 1905.At present, it has been widely equipped in the armies of countries all over the world.But most countries.Obviously, not enough attention has been paid to this weapon.Later, because of the widespread use of trench warfare and barbed wire.This trajectory is curved.Portable individual support artillery.It quickly became an existence that cannot be ignored on the battlefield.According to incomplete statistics.Throughout World War II.Nearly 50.00% of the front force casualties.All caused by mortars!

What excites Hua Fei the most is not remembering the mortar.Instead, remember mortar shells.Hua Fei, who had a certain understanding of shells, knew.The most significant difference between mortar shells and ordinary artillery shells is that.Because the mortar has no rifling to control the direction of the shell.So a fin was added to the tail of the shell.

Tail!This mortar shell is simply the prototype of an aerial bomb!I believe it only needs a little modification.Mortar shells with tail fins can not only carry out more accurate bombing.Its power is more than several times higher than that of grenades.

Hua Fei immediately found Edsi.Negotiate in detail with him the purchase of a batch of mortars and shells.Edsey since visiting the air show.He quickly contacted Minister Marinke.After Malink listened to Edsy's detailed narration.Report this to the government immediately.

At this time, Edsey had just received a call back from Malink.Authorize him to negotiate with Hua Fei.Purchase a batch of this new type of aircraft.For use and research by the Luftwaffe.

Both have their needs.It hit it off.Huafei is not shy about exporting aircraft.Because of the aircraft of this era.There is no strong core technology.And many of his materials.Including some parts of the engine.All need to be imported from abroad.There is no need for much secrecy at all.Only after the aircraft has just been developed and finalized.He is already in America.U.K.Germany.France and other countries have applied for many patents.

Because Edsey is looking to buy a large number of aircraft.And it seems urgent.The starting price of Huafei.Not only the asking price is high.It is also required to supplement and perfect the artillery arsenal construction contract signed with Germany before.While providing various caliber wild cannon and mountain cannon production machinery and equipment to assist in the construction.Increase the production line for ordering mortars.in addition.Germany is also required to provide supporting ammunition factories and technical support including mortar shells and artillery shells.

Because of Germany's international strategic isolation.In addition, there is no substantial conflict of interest with China.Colonial consciousness is not very strong.So whether it is for China's arms exports.Or related factory technical assistance.The taboos of the Russians are significantly less than those of Britain, France, Russia and other countries.

So in Edsey's view.Not only did he successfully sign an aircraft purchase contract with Hua Fei.Also unexpectedly got another deal.What a joy!Artillery can be built.Mortars, of course, will not have difficulties.Although the central government of this country has protested to their national government more than once.Although French.Russian.Even the Japanese have expressed some dissatisfaction and concern.But neither the US government.Or the German government.Obviously they are unwilling to give up this transaction.

Close cooperation with Huafei.Not only has the economic substantive return been taken.Also because of cooperation.Deepened the influence of Americans and Germans in the Yangtze River Basin.At least for now.Americans and Germans set up factories and businesses in the Yangtze River Basin.There will be great convenience and freedom.

Not to mention how Edsey reported the cooperation transaction in detail with Minister Malink.It only said that after Hua Fei finished the matter.Much easier.Immediately sent a secret telegram to Feng Ru and others.Tell them about the proposal to modify the bomber.so that they can prepare as early as possible.

early March.The contradiction between Yuan Shikai's government and the Democratic Party became more and more intense.The whole country was full of noise.Yuan Shikai hopes to remove the hat of interim president as soon as possible.Revolutionaries such as the Democratic Party strongly hope to limit the power of the president through the parliament.

It was bustling outside.Hua Fei had been very active before.Seems to have disappeared from public view.It seems that all these disputes.It has nothing to do with him.

Sanhehua family.Hua Fei holds Hua Zhong's telegram in his hand.The second division has been fully formed.Full recruit training is over.Just including weapon configurations such as guns, ammunition and artillery.Not enough yet.Many of the recruits carried primitive broadswords and spears.It doesn't look like a regular army!

in addition.Many disbanded former revolutionary soldiers continued to gather in Wuhu.Some people even fled from the original army with guns.Request to join Hua Fei's revolutionary army.For nothing else.It's just because their army often can't make a military noon for several months.And Hua Fei's army not only didn't wait for a while.And Junshang is much more generous than them.

These stragglers kept gathering.I heard that the recruitment of new troops has stopped and they will not disperse.Not only aggravated the severity of Fang's law and order.There will also be many spies and spies from other parties.BGI asked for instructions.what to do.

Hua Fei also had a headache about this.The disbanded revolutionary army is fine.If Hua Fei accepts those deserters.Wouldn't it destroy the relationship with the revolutionary party army!And this undisciplined soldier.Hua Fei is also extremely annoying.What should the disbanded revolutionary army do?The new third division?But at present, even the second division's weapons and equipment are not complete.What's the use of building a third division.Waste of military funds.

But these are trained.High-quality soldier resources.It's a pity to give up.Think about it.Hua Fei sent a telegram to Hua Da.Order him to send out the army.Catch all deserters.Collect their weapons.Even the man and the gun were sent back to the troops.For those demobilized new army soldiers.Those who are willing can be incorporated into the Construction Corps.as a reserve.Those who don't want to, as long as they don't disturb and cause trouble.Come and go as they please.In order to strengthen the law and order of Wuhu and other cities along the Yangtze River.Decided to impose military control indefinitely.Strengthen your guard.

98 Fake Spy

With the addition of these new aircraft, the students of Longteng Flight Academy finally have enough aircraft for flight training. .Three telegrams came, requesting Hua Fei to name this model.

Hua Fei is also very happy. Although the addition of this kind of aircraft can't form too much combat power in a short period of time, his military potential has obviously attracted many people's attention.The central government in Beijing specially dispatched a commissioner to negotiate with Hua Fei about purchasing an aircraft, and made a request to appoint a commissioner to apply for admission to the Longteng Flying Academy.Of course, Hua Fei was perfunctory and procrastinating. Seeing that there was no hope, Yuan Shikai had turned to foreigners to buy planes and started preparing for a flight academy.

The code name of the aircraft has already been determined, which is X1, which means Pioneer One.As for the name Hua Fei, he chose again and again among several alternate names, and finally chose Shenlong as the official name of the pioneer.

On this day, Hua Fei finally received the news that Song Jiaoren had gone to Shanghai and was about to go to Beijing to become the Prime Minister of the cabinet.After struggling in his heart for a long time, Hua Fei finally decided not to leave him alone!If he did that, Hua Fei felt that there was no difference between him and Yuan Shikai?

"Fang Rong, this task is absolutely confidential. Not only must you complete it with all your strength, but you must also make no mistakes. Can you do it?"

Fang Rong has become very silent since the battle in Tianbao City in Nanjing.However, Hua Fei is more and more satisfied with his training performance and achievements in Du Ren.Since Hua San is too conspicuous, if he disappears suddenly, it may attract the attention of interested people.So Hua Fei considered again and again, and decided to send Fang Rong to carry out this mission.

"Don't worry, Commander, if there is any mistake, Fang Rong will apologize with death!"

Hua Fei glanced at Fang Rong, this child still couldn't completely dispel the shadow of last mistake from his heart.He said angrily at the moment, "How many times have I said it. Death is the choice of the cowardly. Because living means that we will endure more pain. No matter what. You can't say death lightly. Because, I Hua Fei still needs you!"

Fang Rong raised his head, his eyes moved imperceptibly, and said solemnly, "Commander, I understand!"

"Okay!" Hua Fei thought about it again, and continued, "Don't tell anyone about this operation. You can choose any team member and any weapon to go with you. After the mission is completed, you quickly hide and arrange Song Mr. Cut off contact with anyone except me. Of course, you can give all the news and newspapers of the day to Mr. Song."

"Commander, my only worry is that the substitute will not be able to escape safely from the car!" Fang Rong expressed his only worry about the plan, "And we can't be sure whether there will be an assassin... or not When will the assassin show up!"

"You don't need to worry about this!" Hua Fei tapped on the table with five fingers.Slowly said. "When you arrive in Shanghai. Someone will send you accurate information!"

"Yes!" "Complete the preparations as quickly as possible. Let's go tonight!"

"Yes!"

After Fang Rong left.Hua Fei considered the details again.have to say.Another bold gamble this time.Just this gamble.The details are more complicated.Also more difficult to control.As for the consequences of losing this bet.Hua Fei couldn't guess.It's just that he couldn't help but torture his heart.Let Song Jiaoren be assassinated regardless.

Not long after Fang Rong left.Qin Man came to report work!

"Commander. The formation of the Wuhu Second Division has been completed. The Construction Corps has also recruited soldiers for the two divisions. Commander Hua Zhong decided to stop the recruitment. Otherwise, it will continue like this. The military expenses will be unbearable! The gentry and local tyrants in the south of the Yangtze River may see each other You did not implement the Land Reform Act in southern Anhui. The resistance to us has been greatly reduced. It is only the Anqing government. Conflicts with us often occur. There have also been several small-scale battles. It is only since our relationship with Yuan Shikai broke completely. They Recently, they have also begun to avoid conflicts with us!"

"Most of the Huaishang army was abolished. Due to Bo Wenwei's insistence, most of them stayed in Huaishang and turned into reclamation troops. Ni Sichong's department in Fuyang formed a new army. At present, there are [-] battalions of nearly [-] new troops! Anqing's Army No. The first army has also abolished part of its troops, and there are only ten thousand new troops left!"

"In addition, according to information from intelligence personnel, many revolutionaries have entered the Jagged Military Academy and the army, lobbying to attract students and young soldiers to join the Revolutionary Party! In addition, many strangers with suspicious identities have appeared in Luzhou Prefecture recently. They are spies from various forces, and I have dispatched additional manpower to track and monitor all suspicious persons!"

"You did a good job!" Hua Fei is very satisfied with Qin Man's work. The situation between the north and the south is already tense. It is not surprising that spies from all sides have infiltrated at this sensitive moment. The only thing that makes Hua Fei difficult is revolutionaries.Their motive is already very clear, that is their unique trick, to win over soldiers and officers who divide the army, and let them join the revolutionary party, so as to achieve the purpose of instigating rebellion.

No wonder the Anqing government has recently tolerated Hua Fei's behavior. I'm afraid this is also an important factor!The difficulty is that at this moment, Hua Fei must not have a deadlock with the revolutionaries, but should form a formal alliance with them.Otherwise, after the second revolution broke out, he would fight against Yuan Shikai in the north alone, and beware of the revolutionary army in the south taking advantage of the fire to loot him, which would be dangerous.

While Hua Fei and Qin Man were discussing in detail the next step of the secret security reconnaissance team's work plan, the guard came to report, "Report, a sneaky spy was caught outside the house, please deal with the army commander!"

Hua Fei and Qin Man looked at each other, and they both saw the doubt in each other's eyes.The spies even recklessly wandered around Sanhehua's house, and even captured the guards in charge of security.Such a spy is too unskilled!

"Bring him in, let me see where the master is from!" Hua Fei smiled jokingly. "Go, go in! Quick!"

With the guards yelling and shoving, a 24-year-old youth shouted angrily, "I...I...I am not a spy. I...I am Chinese, I am not...not a bad person !"

Looking at the young man's eyes full of anger and fear, he kept looking at Hua Fei and Qin Man, and finally looked at Qin Mandao, "Hua...Hua Commander, I...I am not a spy, I...I am Just passing by. Just passing by!"

Qin Man was about to speak.Being robbed by Hua Fei, he asked first, "Huh? Have you met Commander Hua before?"

"No...no!"

"Then how can you be sure that he is Commander Hua?"

"Because... because he is wearing a military uniform! Could it be... Could it be that you..." The young man turned his head quite quickly, and immediately understood what Hua Fei meant.

Hua Fei looked down, because he was at home, he was indeed dressed in casual clothes.Immediately stood up laughing, stepped forward to loosen the rope for the young man with his own hands, and then stretched out his hands and said, "I'm sorry, it was a misunderstanding. I surprised my brother. I, Hua Fei, are exactly the Commander Hua you just mentioned!"

The young man never expected that the legendary Hua Shashen, who is brutal and bloodthirsty, would be so approachable.Looking at Hua Fei's outstretched palm, the skin is delicate and white, where it is full of blood like the rumors from the outside world.
