January 1, 1941 Tianzhu Assam
But does the Eighth Route Army have aircraft to sell to them? Zhao Gang frowned slightly, then relaxed. Yes, the Eighth Route Army seized a large number of aircraft and accessories in Peiping. The Kangda factories in northern Shaanxi began to use the captured engines to trial-produce aircraft. The performance of those Japanese aircraft was average and belonged to the It would be nice to sell these tasteless chicken ribs to the people of Tianzhu.
But selling aircraft is very complicated. The Eighth Route Army itself is still figuring out the follow-up parts, maintenance, and preliminary pilot and ground crew training. How can it provide training for Tianzhu people? Moreover, his current identity is a major general of the Jinling puppet government. If he brings a group of Eighth Route Army soldiers to train others, wouldn't that be a gang? Are we still looking for Kuroshima Morita? Continue to bring the Japanese over?
So does this strategic plan belong to us or the Japanese? In the end, you couldn’t really help the Japanese make wedding dresses, right? Thinking of this, Zhao Gang suddenly felt frightened. Don't tell me that this is really possible. It's like the Laba Tuwang of Haihai secretly sold the refined oil products destined for Xiangjiang. Who was the product sold to in the end? It's hard to say.
"Price is not an issue. We need high-performance fighter jets, fighter jets that can crush the British!" King Yasha said eagerly. This swamp is not on the route, and there is no air force base nearby, but what he is most worried about is still Even if only one of the British planes flew over here, their secret would not be kept, and it happened that they didn't even have the slightest idea to deal with this situation.
The communication methods of aircraft in this era were not developed, and there were many restrictions. Even if planes were shot down sporadically, it was not easy to determine the location. Once a British plane mistakenly entered this area, they could directly shoot down the plane. As long as they are quick and decisive enough, the British may not be able to determine the location of the crash, at least not right away.
With an income of hundreds of thousands of dollars a day, naturally the sooner the British know about it, the better. On the other hand, their military preparations also require a lot of time. Time means the chance of winning, and time means opportunity. They must do their best. Make time when possible.
"Your Majesty, do you have a pilot?" Zhao Gang asked curiously. He only asked about the aircraft and not the pilot. It was indeed a bit of a waste of time.
"Yes, we have twenty-two fighter pilots who participated in the last war. They are all very reliable members of the royal family." The King of Hyderabad blurted out. Their preparations actually started very early. The royal family A large number of descendants of nobles and nobles entered the British army to serve in the British army in order to conduct systematic military training and increase their own background.
However, the British Royal Navy was very repulsive to colonial soldiers. Except for special circumstances, it was difficult for Tianzhu people to serve as officers and important positions, and the selection of colonial officers and soldiers was also very strict. They also preferred those so-called democrats.
The British Army is similar. A small number of royal and aristocratic officers are either placed in idle departments or mixed with democrats. They can't learn anything except intrigues. Occasionally, a few outstanding officers will die inexplicably. Over time, the local kings became less willing to continue their deployment in the army.
The Royal Air Force was an emerging force during World War I. The British Military Intelligence Office did not control and pay enough attention to it, so it gave these guys a chance. In addition, the British people who were also born into nobles were also willing to support these guys who were also nobles, so They have really produced some very skilled fighter pilots.
The oldest of these pilots is only over 50 years old. They have also trained on civilian aircraft in recent years and are in very good condition. This is also the reason for the confidence of the King of Hyderabad and the King of Asa.
"Two princes, I can sell you twenty-two fighter jets. They are not the most advanced, but they are definitely the active equipment of our allies." Zhao Gang also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. The twenty-two Japanese fighter jets are still Yes, exchange Japanese fighter jets for gold, and then use the gold to buy the latest Bald Eagle fighter jet from Wang Yue. This transaction is definitely not a loss.
It’s not that the Eighth Route Army can’t buy more planes, but the number of pilots they can use is limited. Even if they have more planes, it’s meaningless. But this is only temporary. As long as the Eighth Route Army’s pilots are well trained, the Eighth Route Army will definitely need them. There are a large number of new fighter jets. As for those Japanese fighter jets, they are nothing compared to the Bald Eagle's p=39.
Since it's of no use, it doesn't matter if we sell it. As for keeping it for confrontation training, don't be kidding. Just have one or two for a while. Besides, those fighter jets equipped by the Japanese army here are nothing at all. The latest fighter jets have little reference value. As the Eighth Route Army and the Yamashiro Government's air force continue to increase in strength, the Japanese military's fighter jets will also be updated. This is only a matter of time.
"We need more. Twenty-two pilots can join the battle immediately. In addition, we have one hundred and fifty student pilots, each of whom has been trained for more than a year." King Yasha was a little anxious.
"Fighters, bombers, transport aircraft, training aircraft, reconnaissance aircraft, we all need them, especially bombers. We need fists, fists that can be punched at any time. The deterrent effect of a bomber formation on the British is even more than that of an infantry division." The king of Hyderabad said from the side.
"Bomber? Deterrence?" Zhao Gang suddenly thought of the special bombs captured by the troops in Peking. Many of them were aerial bombs, matching Japanese bombers. To be honest, the combat effectiveness was only average, but it was estimated that it would not be able to deal with the British. enough.
"Whether it's against the British, the democrats or other princes." King Yasha added that there are many forces in Tianzhu, and no one, including the seemingly popular democrats, has an absolute advantage. To put it bluntly, who can win in the end? Whoever integrates these forces will win the final victory. Just like the British people now, their forces in Tianzhu are constantly weakening, but they can still rely on the integrated forces to maintain their rule.
"This, I need to go back and apply for it. The Jinling government's air force is very weak, and these planes still can't bypass our allies." Zhao Gang did not agree immediately. He would help the Tianzhu people build a large air force, and he might also have to sell special bombs in stock. This must be Ask Northern Shaanxi for instructions.
"Mr. David, please help, and please tell Baron Black Island that we will unswervingly support you!" The King of Hyderabad said firmly. This is about taking sides. They actually want to find someone. They looked for others, but neither Hans nor anyone else could give them actual support. If they wanted to resist the British, they could only seek skin from the tiger.
As for, will they have to face the Japanese threat again after defeating the British? The two earth kings naturally have their own plans. This is Tianzhu, and no one knows the people of Tianzhu better than them.
"Your Majesty, it's us. If it weren't for us, our allies wouldn't use large transport planes to transport supplies. You know, it's not easy to transport things to northern Assam." Zhao Gang said with a smile, airlifting a large amount of supplies Over here? The Japanese do not have this ability. If they really had such transportation capabilities, the Japanese would have won this war long ago.
"We, yes, it's us, Mr. David is right." The two local kings also smiled. Regardless of what should be said, the Japanese still did a good job on the surface. The small court in Xinjing, the Seoul regime, Jinling The establishment of a series of pseudo-regimes such as the Chinese regime is an example. With propaganda, the phrase "Asia for Asians" is still very popular.
"I have a list here. The two princes can take a look." As he spoke, Zhao Gang handed a list to the two earth kings in front of him. This was a list provided by Wang Yue. There were hundreds of people on it. , all of them are giants in Tianzhu's scientific community in later generations, and now, the biggest of these people has just graduated from college. If -, it is tantamount to giving Tianzhu a heavy blow, and may even affect Tianzhu in the next few decades. develop.
"Mr. David, who are these?" The Hyderabad king was a little confused. There were names, brief information, and approximate addresses on the list, but he had no influence on these people at all. They were not important people at all. But since he is not an important person, why does the intelligence officer of this big Eastern country pay such attention to him?
"Someone wants to buy the lives of these people, one person, ten heavy machine guns." Zhao Gang said pretending to be mysterious. The Eighth Route Army did not understand it at first, but after research, intelligence analysts from the Ministry of Social Affairs found that many people here have scientific knowledge. The background of the aristocratic family, combined with Wang Yue's actions all the time, probably revealed this guy's purpose, which is to dig the foundation of neighboring countries. Although Tianzhu is not an independent country yet, whether it is to weaken Tianzhu or weaken Tianzhu, Britain seems to be good for the country.
The price Wang Yue gave was ten anti-aircraft machine guns or a tank for one person. If they were all completed, there would be a special reward. Zhao Gang's quotation had obviously shrunk, and the logistics side had already made up its mind that it would provide money from the entire army. Use the Type 92 heavy machine gun and the Type 38 heavy machine gun, and make them together no matter what. If that doesn't work, you can just make the Type 38.
"Mr. David, to be honest, the price is not low, but our status is really inaccessible to some things." The king of Hyderabad was in a dilemma, engaging in assassination? He has done this a lot, but he is still a little reluctant to assassinate unimportant people. Ten heavy machine guns, only ten thousand dollars? One hundred people would only get over one million US dollars. With his financial resources, he really couldn't afford this amount of money.
