Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire

"What chicken?" Pan Chengzhang said subconsciously before he could react when he heard Lin Yi's words.

"Sir, it's a prototype." Hearing what Pan Chengzhang blurted out, Lin Yi almost fell down.

It turns out that people will really use the jokes on the Internet in later generations?

However, Lin Yi knew what time it was, so he could only patiently explain to Pan Chengzhang.

"The prototype is the No. [-] machine that has been designed and finalized. All subsequent improvements will be made according to the current model."

"Sir, just treat him as the master model. None of this is important."

"Oh, okay, then what is the prototype you are talking about used for?"

As a supporter of the "Continental Army" theory, Pan Chengzhang did not reject the development of the navy, but he still believed that if Daxia wanted to be strong, it must work hard to develop the army.

Therefore, he is not very interested in all equipment other than army equipment.

But this does not mean that Pan Chengzhang ignored the development of the navy. A powerful navy can solve many things for the army.

Which doctrine you support is just an attitude, and you do not have to develop one.

Although Pan Chengzhang was a little disdainful of this prototype, which was obviously not army equipment, he still watched it from the side.

Lin Yi looked at Pan Chengzhang's look and knew what the other person was thinking.

He sneered in his heart, despite Pan Chengzhang's lack of interest now, but once he introduced the use of this thing to Pan Chengzhang, he did not believe that Pan Chengzhang would not chase him for the plane.

"Uncle, sir, this is the empire's latest aircraft. This aircraft uses a double-decker wing design. It allows the aircraft to fly freely in the sky." Lin Yi looked at the two people and said.

Upon hearing Lin Yi's words, Pan Chengzhang and Zhao Xu became interested.

"Can you take people flying?" Zhao Xu said in surprise.

"Yes." Lin Yi nodded, then pointed to the cockpit of the plane, and continued: "The pilot sits here and flies the plane."

"Prince Rui, when I look at the plane, it seems that it can only seat one person?" Pan Chengzhang said, looking at the plane.

"The old man has sharp eyes. It is true that he can only sit for one person."

"This plane can only seat one person, but there are two heavy machine guns in front of the plane, which can attack the enemy in the sky."

Pan Chengzhang was stunned for a moment, seemed to have thought of something, and then said: "What a good thing!"

"Your Majesty, this is a good thing. This plane can fly into the sky to attack the enemy, and it can also conduct reconnaissance on the enemy's positions and marching routes."

"In this way, our army can keep track of the enemy's movements at any time on the battlefield."

"At that time, the enemy's firepower and position layout will no longer be a secret to us." Pan Chengzhang said with some excitement.

What Lin Yi admires most about Pan Chengzhang is this.

Although Pan Chengzhang is a firm supporter of the army doctrine, he still has some vision.

Just because he supports Army doctrine does not mean he denies everything.

"Not only that, sir, I forgot that there are two heavy machine guns on your plane."

"So, the aircraft can not only detect the enemy, but also attack some of the enemy's key defense areas. It can also block the enemy's march and position deployment, buying time for our army and reducing our army's casualties."

"Imagine that we are fighting the enemy. Whether we are attacking or defending, artillery is always the greatest threat to our army brothers."

"If we have an aircraft at this time, once we start a battle with the enemy, this aircraft will be the first to fly over the enemy for reconnaissance."

"Once the enemy's artillery position is discovered, the pilot can send the location of the artillery position to the army, allowing them to take the lead in attacking the artillery position and destroy the opponent."

"It can even be carried out directly by aircraft. In this way, the enemy's artillery positions are wiped out, and then they will only be bombarded by our artillery."

"For another example, we are chasing an enemy army, or the enemy army is chasing us."

"At this time, the plane suddenly flies over the enemy's head and attacks them, which will inevitably make the enemy stop."

"This will make it easier for us to catch up, or we can escape from the enemy's pursuit more safely."

"Of course, this is just that the aircraft is equipped with machine guns. If the aircraft is built big enough and there are enough, then can something, such as bombs, be placed inside the fuselage of the aircraft?"

"Then swarms of aircraft flew over the enemy's sky and dropped bombs directly on the enemy's positions, or the enemy's supply points."

"As long as this round of bombs is dropped, the enemy who lacks supplies will become a lamb to be slaughtered."

"In addition, in addition to carrying bombs, we can also transform the aircraft into a transport aircraft to deliver troops to the enemy's rear, cut off the enemy's supplies, or attack the enemy from the rear."

"My lord is an expert in army doctrine, so lord, you can think about it. If my lord is commanding such an army that is harassed by planes, will you have any chance of winning against our army of tigers and wolves in Great Xia?"

"No, there's no chance of winning!" Pan Chengzhang shook his head.

He finally understood why Lin Yi said that this weapon could change the pattern of future wars.

Whether you want to fight positional warfare or march, you still need to face the harassment of aircraft.

If you are not careful, a bomb will fall directly on your head.

Even if the plane doesn't come to blow up his own position, if he goes to blow up his own logistics, the arsenal will still be unbearable.

How can an army without logistical supplies and ammunition face an army armed to the teeth?

It is really impossible to fight again and again, and it is impossible to run away. The result of waiting for this army can only be destroyed.

Pan Chengzhang even thought that if the empire was not the first to develop this aircraft, but the enemy was the first to successfully develop it, then it would be a disaster for the empire.

Thinking of this, Pan Chengzhang said to Zhao Xu with a serious face: "Your Majesty, this aircraft will definitely become a weapon of the empire in the future. Please decree that in the future of the empire, whoever becomes the military chief must vigorously develop aircraft!"

Zhao Xu nodded heavily when he heard Pan Chengzhang's words. Then he looked at Lin Yi and said in a deep voice: "Yier, you have made a meritorious service again."

"Your Majesty, this is all the credit of the scientific researchers below. I dare not take credit." Lin Yi also said with a serious face. He even changed his name to Zhao Xu.

Zhao Xu nodded when he heard Lin Yi's words.

"I have my own arrangements for rewards for scientific researchers, but it is you. What reward do you want?"

"Your Majesty, I am already a prince and have no reward. Why don't you exchange this reward for a naming right?" Lin Yi asked.

"Naming rights? Interesting, Yi'er, tell me, what naming rights do you want?"

"Your Majesty, I would like to name this newly formed force the Silver Eagle Force, give it a royal title, and call it the Imperial Royal Air Force to the outside world! Let them form an independent army!" Lin Yi said in a deep voice.

"Huh? Imperial Silver Eagle? Imperial Royal Air Force?"
