Beiyang reactionaries

"Mr. Yang, please sit down."

Beijing is chaotic, and Duan Xun is also paying attention during this time.

In fact, Duan Xun despises Cao Kun in his heart, and he will definitely suffer from it.After Duan Qirui was defeated in the Zhiwan War, Cao Kun was afraid of Zhang Zuolin at first, so he supported Jin Yunpeng.Later, Jin Yunpeng was not very obedient, so he wanted to support someone who listened to his own words.

But Cao Kun did not want to bear the financial crisis of the Beijing government.

So I supported Zhou Ziqi, who is famous for his financial management, and hoped that Zhou Ziqi could solve the financial crisis of the Beijing government by himself.It's a pity that after Zhou Ziqi took office, he failed to help Cao Kun solve the financial crisis. Instead, he was pushed down by others.

Now it has become Liang Shiyi again.

Still lack of courage.

If it is Duan Xun, since they have already controlled Beijing, they will control Beijing generously.Push your own people to control Beijing, and then accept the debts of the Beijing government.Although it would be very difficult to live like this, but there is righteousness, and the Beijing government is in our hands.

With the Beijing government, there are many things that can be done.

Righteousness is in your hands.

It's a pity that Cao Kun hesitated and wasted more than half a year.Taking advantage of this time, Zhang Zuolin has expanded his army by tens of thousands of people, and Duan Xun has almost eliminated the unstable factors in his own territory, and he is still expanding his army.

Now that Cao Kun controls the Beijing government, he has lost his best chance.

However, Duan Xun only pays attention to the affairs of the Beijing government, looking at their intelligence every day.Duan Xun still has a lot of things to do, especially the establishment of the Air Force.

Qin Guoyong has taken more than 500 people, more than 100 people more than the original plan, and defected to Duan Xun.

Because of the Beijing-Han Railway, Qin Guoyong and the others could easily reach Wuchang by using the railway.Duan Xun appointed Qin Guoyong as the director of the Aviation Department of the Border Supervision Administration.At present, Qin Guoyong's main work is to establish Wuchang Aviation School and build an aircraft repair shop next to the school.Of course, Qin Guoyong still has a task to contact the French to see if he can buy a batch of training planes and some bombers from France.

Today Duan Xun wants to meet Yang Xianyi from Fujian.

very young.

28 is old.

"Mr. Yang, all my ideas are written in that letter. I don't know what you have to say."

Fight dad?

To put it bluntly, regardless of whether it is China or a foreign country, regardless of whether it is ancient or modern, any place and any time are actually fighting for fathers.With a good father, your starting point is high.So for those who don't have a good father, the best way is not to blame others, not to blame yourself every day.Work harder than those people to make yourself a good father to your son.

The same is true for Yang Xianyi.

His own ability is very good, he is a talent who understands technology, flying, and even some simple air force operations.In this day and age, he is indeed an Air Force talent.

But it's just about paying attention.

It would be nice to let him manage an aviation team, Duan Xun doesn't have time to talk alone with people of his level.Because Duan Xun has a lot to do.Those who want to meet Duan Xun, those who have signed up at Duan Xun's secretariat, have been queued for many days.Compared with those people, Yang Xianyi is not qualified to meet Duan Xun alone like this.

But who let him have a good father.

Duan Xun valued Yang Xianyi, and even more valued the contacts behind him, mainly his rich father.So meet Yang Xianyi in person today.

"General Duan, do you really think that the air force is an indispensable service in future wars?"

"of course."

Duan Xun nodded and said: "In the future war, whoever controls the air and the sky will be invincible. This includes not only land warfare, but also naval warfare. The aircraft carrier that is currently emerging, I think it is the future of the navy. The direction of development. In the future, the Navy will not be able to do without the support of the Air Force. Of course it is not just war. I wrote in the letter that with the development of aircraft technology, the future transportation methods will change, and the development of aircraft in the civilian field will also change with each passing day. Including There will be huge changes in the travel of human beings. The current speed of the plane is already very fast. With the development of technology, the speed of the plane will become faster and faster. When the time comes from our Wuchang to Beijing, it will only take a few hours for everyone to fly .”

In Duan Xun's letter to Yang Xianyi, he had already written a lot of his thoughts on the development of aircraft.It was precisely because of this that Yang Xianyi was moved to come to Duan Xun to have a look.Because many of Duan Xun's writings are well-founded, Yang Xianyi's predictions about the future direction of aircraft development are refreshing.

Amazing, yet reasonable.

Duan Xun asked what role aircraft should play in future wars, and even Duan Xun himself guessed the tactics of many aircraft on the battlefield, which Yang Xianyi had never thought about before.But if you think about it carefully, it is very possible.

Compared with the "aviation power" that Sun Yat-sen told them before, it is much more specific and more operable.

So here it is.

Now hearing Duan Xun's words, Yang Xianyi agreed with Duan Xun even more.

"How about it, Mr. Yang. I would like to invite you to serve as the captain of the air team I want to establish, and help me build the best air team in China, and even the best air team in Asia. This is not only to build an air force for me , but also to build an air force for our country."

"If General Duan does not dislike him, I am willing to take over this position."

In fact, Yang Xianyi's coming to Wuchang today has already shown his attitude.Now it's just officially said.Duan Xun was overjoyed, because he not only got a talent, but also got the connections of his father behind him.

"Okay, then I won't be polite. Captain Yang, I need your help with something."

274 Air Force 4

"Captain Yang, I need your help with something."

"General, please speak."

"Aeroplanes are definitely the direction of future development, and we must not ignore them. In particular, a big country like China should have its own aircraft factory and learn how to manufacture aircraft by itself. Bullying. It’s a pity that our country lacks talents in this area, and there is no technical reserve in this area, so we will not be able to manufacture aircraft in a short time. Even if we manufacture one or two aircraft, it is only a sample. Mass production is a must. impossible."

"Yes."

Although Yang Xianyi grew up abroad, he still did some research to develop China's aviation industry after returning to China.

What is the aviation industry?

It doesn't mean that if a certain aircraft factory of yours manufactures an aircraft, then your country is a country with an aviation industry, and your country is a country that can manufacture aircraft. It is so easy.Even if the aircraft is completely independently manufactured by China, you are not considered a country with an aviation industry.

Because of the combination of some excellent designers, excellent engineers, and excellent workers, plus the support of some other factories, it is possible to build an aircraft purely by hand.Just like Wang Zhu and Bayuzao’s naval aircraft factory in Mawei Shipyard, a seaplane has been basically successfully developed.Although the engine inside is imported, they have done everything else from design to subsequent manufacturing.It's just that I haven't been able to complete all of them due to lack of funds for more than a year.In fact, as long as there is funding, this aircraft can already be tested.

But even though it can manufacture aircraft, the Naval Aircraft Factory of Mawei Shipyard is still a handicraft workshop, not a real aircraft factory.

It is the same even if Wang Zhu and Bayuzao built airplanes.Because it is impossible to mass-produce this aircraft, the naval aircraft factory in Fujian does not have such industrial strength at all.The ability to manufacture one or two aircraft a year is the strength of this factory.

In fact, any industry is like this.

Don't look at the history of the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, which factory built China's first car, first airplane, and so on.In fact, they are all imaginary, completely handmade, or bought and assembled from abroad.A thing that cannot be mass-produced is basically useless.

China's current industrial base is like this.

Many industrial products can be made, but they cannot be mass-produced, which means that they are not the same.

On the contrary, in many industrial powers, after they get involved in a certain industry, they only need to make a sample.Then with their industrial strength, mass production will be realized soon, which is the sign of industrialization.

In this regard, China is still far behind.

"However, if I want to establish an aviation school and an aviation team, I must have airplanes. I can't wait until we can build airplanes. I don't know when it will be. So I have already sent people to contact France. I want to buy some training planes and bombers from France. But there are some problems with my relationship with France. The relationship between the two sides is not very good, and the important thing is that it is the time of the 'arms embargo'. I am afraid that France will use this as a reason. It is an excuse to prohibit me from buying bombers. So I want to find a way from the United States."

"The general wants to pass my father?"

Yang Xianyi is not a fool.
