Tang Mo is indeed manufacturing and producing airships, because before airplanes are fully mature, airships can indeed do many things that airplanes cannot.
For example...bombing!
The huge airship now completely crushes the aircraft in terms of load capacity. Today's aircraft can carry the weight of bombs, which is shocking to say!
The Camel fighter can carry 45 kilograms of aerial bombs - that's the total weight! In other words, it can probably carry two bombs of about 20 kilograms to carry out bombing missions. Even a large three-engine biplane has a load capacity that is incomparable to today's airships.
In addition to the load, the range problem is also fatal. Aircraft are now basically real airport defenders. With a combat radius of several hundred kilometers, they cannot be used as offensive weapons at all.
What's more, Datang Group has accumulated some experience in the production of inert gases, which has improved the safety of airships.
In addition, there are no threats such as anti-aircraft guns nowadays, and airships can safely and efficiently carry bombs to bomb targets.
As the head of the Datang Group and a time traveler, Tang Mo still has a bit of a vulgar taste.
He wanted to know what the expressions of the enemies of Datang Group would be like when they woke up early one morning, opened their eyes, and saw dozens of airships appearing overwhelmingly in the sky.
If these airships were painted with scary shark mouths, it would be so graphic, wouldn't it?
Of course, Tang Mo wouldn't go crazy and draw a sickle and hammer on the side of the airship, but he could draw his own dragon emblem, and the momentum would definitely be the same.
It's just missing a little bit of flavor, the feeling of the Iron Curtain slowly falling, the unique BGM sounding, and the double-barreled artillery tanks knocking over road signs...
Even the names Tang Mo gave these airships were Kirov, which was confusing. The senior officials of Datang Group still don't know how worthy and powerful the name Kirov is, so that Tang Mo could use it to name a secret weapon.
Tang Mo is not afraid that these airships will become completely obsolete due to the emergence of airplanes. He can sell them back after using them.
This is the advantage of first-mover technology. As long as you don't sell airplanes, the airship is an absolutely advanced aviation weapon and can be sold at a good price.
As for the enemy developing airships for bombing, Tang Mo is not afraid, because he has already deployed fighter jets on Long Island, which means he already has a strong shield to defend against airships!
…
Putting aside Tang Mo's vague fantasy of launching a red alert in a different world, in the luxuriously decorated conference room of the distant Cyric headquarters, a group of middle-level cadres in charge of intelligence were conducting an intelligence summary. s meeting.
The Cyric Consortium has never stopped collecting intelligence on the Datang Group, and has even been expanding its power against the Datang Group.
However, in the competition between the two sides, the newly-emerged Datang Group's intelligence department always overpowered Cyric's intelligence agency.
The Silver Fox has now basically become a nightmare for Cyric intelligence officers, who tend to have emotional breakdowns at the mere mention of the name.
Fear and hatred are intertwined, respect and fear, fear and anger, anger and helplessness... In short, the name Silver Fox is already a taboo.
Seeing that his subordinates were listless, one of the directors presiding over the meeting glanced at the red-haired woman sitting there repairing her nails, sighed and said: "Let's start summarizing..."
Recently, Sophia's status within the Cyric Consortium has risen a bit, and many directors have turned to this red-haired beauty.
After all, this woman has brought tangible benefits to Cyric, and her secret agents have achieved unprecedented success in stealing Datang Group technology.
While other spies were almost helpless after being attacked by Silver Fox, Sofia's people even obtained a complete set of production drawings for Datang Group's Model T car, and instigated seven or eight engineers to rebel...
This is heading towards the development of a fantasy story - Sophia's company can now produce T-type cars, and has even made some improvements, allowing the Cyric Consortium to have its own car model.
What's even more exaggerated is that Sophia actually obtained the ship design drawings of Datang Group, which cracked the secret of the propeller.
At the same time, the shipyard under Sofia has begun to build the Cyric Consortium's new ship. However, the new ship technology has become Sofia's own exclusive technology. Although the other directors of the Cyric Consortium are coveting it, they have no other choice.
After all, each company has this kind of independent technology, and this is also a cooperation model for Cyric. Whoever has the strengths will produce the products. When the time comes, everyone will just get dividends based on their equity, and they will not easily interfere with each other's business operations.
It was as if Director Fatty had mastered the production of new rifles and pistols, and Sophia had no involvement.
Because Sophia has recently brought a lot of benefits to the consortium, and her management skills have been recognized by everyone. With the support of most directors, she has now become Cyric's decision-maker and has gained most of the power of the consortium. of control.
"Rebirth of the Great Era of Fighting Waves"
This is also the reason why she can attend such intelligence meetings.
I only heard an intelligence leader report: "As of June, that is, two months ago... the steel shipped from Nanshui Port to Longdao exceeded 3,000 tons. This is almost the limit of shipments from Refeng Port."
Nanshui Port is still under the management of Yangmu Kingdom, so Cyric's spies can easily get the information here.
However, after talking about several small peripheral ports, when it came to the ports controlled by Datang Group, the person who reported it was obviously unnatural: "We can't investigate the specific figures of Osa Port, so we can only estimate a rough estimate. The quantity is at least 19,000 tons, and under normal circumstances, it is no less than 25,000 tons."
There was no way, because of Silver Fox's interference, they could only estimate a rough result from marginal intelligence data.
The person in charge of Refeng Port could only bite the bullet and came up with an extremely inaccurate figure: "We can't investigate the number of Refeng Port. Those Silver Fox bastards are very experienced. There’s no way to start. The data here are also extrapolated, probably between 20,000 tons and 40,000 tons.”
Sure enough, this aroused the dissatisfaction of the head of the intelligence department: "Are you kidding me? 20,000 tons? Between 40,000 tons? Is this called a calculation? I can come up with such an immeasurable figure sitting at home."
The person in charge of Refeng Port argued helplessly: "What can I do? Nowadays, there are more and more ships transporting, and our judgment on shipping capacity is becoming less and less accurate."
Recently, whenever it involves Datang Group's intelligence compilation work, there will always be such quarrels and excuses.
On the one hand, frontline intelligence work is becoming more and more difficult, and there is a shortage of front-line intelligence personnel who cannot be supplemented. On the other hand, senior officials want to obtain more information about the Datang Group.
In contrast, the work in this area is becoming more and more difficult.
Thinking of the espionage war between the two sides, some people gritted their teeth: "We have never encountered such a situation before! We have not encountered similar opponents... Those damn bastards of Silver Fox..."
Another person followed and complained: "It is almost impossible to bribe officials. Their income accounts are transparent and Silver Fox people will investigate. There is no way to hide large bribes."
"Given a small amount of money and they don't like it, who would betray the prosperous Datang Group for a few dozen gold coins?" A consistent voice immediately came from the other side.
The more the complaining leader spoke, the more he lamented: "Even if there are people who are greedy for money and have the courage to accept the money, the data provided is incomplete and can only be speculated. Maybe they are fishermen. Our people will get the data." , and was caught on the spot.”
"We have lost more manpower in the past two years than in the past ten years combined...especially in the operation against Datang Group..." The people next to him also echoed.
The instigator sitting in the first place, the red-haired Sophia, was still boringly trimming her beautiful nails with a file without saying a word, as if all this had nothing to do with her.
Anyway, her people did not suffer any losses. The people sent to Bunas enjoyed good food and drink. They went to the casino and watched the horse racing every day. Their main job was to buy the most popular clothes and jewelry bags in Bunas and send them back. To the Castle of Fire.
According to the cooperation between the two parties, Datang Group will take the initiative to give her some technology and information from time to time, so that she can sit firmly at the head of the Cyric Consortium. This is enough.
"We can only try our luck with newbies. Old people who know the situation don't dare to go in that direction. They don't do anything when they go. Some even disappear directly." The people on the side couldn't help but sigh.
Someone on the other side complained: "It's better to disappear...some of them rebelled directly. Do you remember Black Falcon?"
"Black Falcon? What's wrong?" Sofia stopped filing her nails. Black Falcon was a double agent controlled by Datang Group. Sophia knew about this, so she was somewhat sensitive to it.
The man immediately explained: "We were sent dozens of telegrams, all nonsense. It was all false news. If other secret agents hadn't sent the news, we would still have been kept in the dark..."
"An old man like him has rebelled?" Sophia pretended to be in disbelief, but she was thinking in her heart that she would send a telegram to remind Tang Mo when she got back, so that Tang Mo would pay attention to this double agent...
"Isn't that right..." Several intelligence managers had no intention of doubting Sophia, and they didn't have the guts either.
"Let's get down to business!" The head of the intelligence department, who looked a bit confused after his subordinates were instigated to become double agents, coughed and reminded everyone to be humane.
"Sorry." The person below immediately ended the topic angrily: "I'm sorry."
