Datang: My father is the head bodyguard

Chapter 692 Radicals vs. Conservatives

The logistics soldiers set up the stand of the binoculars. This high-magnification military telescope has a large aperture, which also makes the entire telescope too heavy. Only people like Yuchi Baoqi and Li Lizhi who have taken medicine can hold it for stable observation.

More than a dozen telescopes were set up, and the mortar targets more than ten kilometers away were clearly visible, as if they were right in front of us.

At Yuchi Baoqi's command, the mortar vehicle opened fire directly. The frequency of one shot per second was truly astonishing. What was even more terrifying was the accuracy of the mortar.

The target on the distant mountain was blown to ashes when the first shell landed, and the subsequent continuous bombardment created a large crater at the location of the target.

As the gunfire stopped, Li Jing was the first to sigh: "The enemy was annihilated invisibly. I'm afraid the enemy army will be instantly disintegrated and destroyed without even knowing what happened, leaving nothing behind."

Yuchi Jingde sighed: "If the old man knew about this, he would be angry for several days."

Yuchi Baoqi laughed: "Mortar vehicles are mainly used for rapid strikes. For complex mountain terrain, it is still necessary to have an artillery platoon led by an old artillery commander."

After seeing the army crew, all the generals felt a little old. If they were faced with such an army, how could they resist it?

Yuchi Baoqi ordered each crew to bring the vehicles back in order, and then got on an ordinary open-top military jeep, ready to go to the flight test site and hangar.

Yuchi Jingde sat in the passenger seat of Yuchi Baoqi's jeep and asked, "The engineering department's recent spending is even more exaggerated than when we were developing cars. The supplies are arriving in more than 20 trucks. What are you doing?"

"Also, these mountains have been hollowed out. I don't even have the authority to go in. What on earth are you hiding in there?"

"Let me tell you clearly, if you want to be the emperor, Dad won't allow it!"

Yuchi Baoqi was speechless: "Who the hell wants to be an emperor? He has nothing better to do than to be an emperor. What a crazy thing to do."

Yuchi Jingde relaxed for a moment: "You want Xiao Canglan to be the emperor! The Yuchi family cannot bear the reputation of usurping the country, remember this!"

Yuchi Baoqi shook his head helplessly: "What's in there is the next generation of aircraft. The craftsmen in charge of this project in the engineering department eat, drink, defecate and urinate in there. Except for me, no one is allowed to go in or out until it is completed."

After listening to Yuchi Baoqi's explanation, Yuchi Jingde finally stopped talking about usurping the throne and started to complain about Yuchi Baoqi spending money like water.

"You make so many advanced equipment every day. Who in the world can rival the Tang Dynasty and the Tianwei Army? It's useless for you to make these."

Yuchi Baoqi looked at Yuchi Jingde and said, "One day, the enemy comes with more advanced equipment and weapons than ours. You should think about what you said today and use the money you spent on developing weapons and equipment to pay war reparations."

This sentence suffocated Yuchi Jingde. Although the recent research and development funds of the Tianwei Army Engineering Department had reached a level that even Yuchi Jingde, a war radical, felt exaggerated, it was still too conservative compared to Yuchi Baoqi, a war conservative.

As they approached the airport runway and hangar, Yuchi Baoqi muttered something quietly. Although it was quiet, Yuchi Jingde still heard it clearly.

[The 120mm caliber is still too small. We need to ask Mo Qi to get some 188mm ones.]

Thanks to Mo Qi's advance notice, three types of military aircraft had been towed to the airport runway in advance and parked neatly on one side of the runway.

The generals who went to support the Charlemagne Empire had all seen airplanes, but they had only seen them from a distance and they were only parked.

This is the first time I have watched an airplane at such a close distance, and there is someone there to answer my questions at any time. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Many generals who had never seen an airplane had only heard that the Tianwei Army had a weapon that could fly and drop explosives from the air, causing massive and precise casualties to the enemy below.

"This is the Tianwei Army's three main fighters. It is the smallest and fastest. It is used as a reconnaissance aircraft, mainly to assist attack aircraft and bombers in finding enemy targets and delivering precise strikes. It is equipped with a .20 airborne machine gun, mainly for self-defense."

"This medium-sized model is an attack aircraft. Since air-to-air missiles and air-to-ground missiles are still under development, it is currently only equipped with a .50 caliber cannon, which can carry out ground attacks on enemy personnel on the ground."

"The largest one is the bomber, and it is also the weapon that has caused the most damage to the Tianwei Army besides the artillery platoon."

"The huge capacity inside the belly of the aircraft can carry multiple large aerial bombs to destroy enemy bunkers, fortresses, and fortifications. It can also carry more small and medium-sized aerial bombs and napalm bombs to kill enemy ground infantry units."

Mo Qi paused and asked, "Is there any general who wants to experience flying on an airplane?"

Cheng Yaojin raised his hand directly, and Li Jing also raised his right hand. As the commander of the entire Tang Dynasty's large army and large group operations, he must clearly know the details of the Tang Dynasty army's highest combat power.

Li Guangbi also raised his hand, which surprised many generals. Li Guangbi felt embarrassed when being stared at: "I have loved flying kites since I was a child. I even asked my father to tie me to a kite and fly me into the sky."

Qin Huaidao came over and said, "Uncle, has the master let him go?"

Li Guangbi scratched his head: "No, your uncle got a bad beating."

All the generals burst into laughter. Mo Qi also asked the pilots and ground staff to come over and explain some things to the three generals who wanted to experience it, and also helped them put on the equipment.

Li Jing sat very calmly in the back seat of the attack plane. He glanced outside at Yuchi Baoqi and Yuchi Jingde who were looking at him with ill intentions, and suddenly he felt like getting off the car.

"Tianwei Air Force number 057, Pengyao! Commander, general, please give instructions!"

Yuchi Baoqi helped Peng Yao tidy up his appearance and patted him on the shoulder: "You have a good name, you are born to do this job. Your back seat is the military god of the Tang Dynasty, General Li Jing. Do you feel any pressure?"

Peng Yao held his helmet in one hand, his eyes firm: "Tianwei Air Force will not feel pressure, and they don't know what pressure is! Peng Yao guarantees to complete the mission!"

Yuchi Jingde punched Peng Yao's chest and said, "Well done. General Li Jing's favorite thing is the special maneuver performance. He often discusses with me that the tactical significance of the aircraft performing this kind of maneuver is extremely great. Do you understand what I mean?"

Peng Yao saluted directly: "Understood! I promise to complete the task!"

The pilots of each aircraft were all on board preparing for flight, and the ground crew were also doing the final takeoff checks. When Li Jing saw the cockpit cover was closed, he gave up the idea of ​​escaping.
