One Hundred and Thirty-Five Trust

At the same time, in London, England, a group of RAF commanders in the Vickers Hupmarin aircraft design company, which the RAF has high hopes for, are also frowning over the news they have just received. [For more wonderful novels, please visit]

"Intelligence from France." An Air Force intelligence expert looked around his colleagues and said, "In the Spanish air battle, the "performance" of the most advanced fighter jet of the Soviet Red Army, the i-16, has completely surpassed that of our army. The Bulldogs that are in use, it's not good news for us."

"I think about developing future fighter jets now? It's too late!" An Air Force pilot sighed and complained, "Why did you go early? We developed a fighter jet (nicknamed Fighting Cock) a few years ago, but we didn't have the funds to equip it. Finally, a few were produced and sold to the Japanese.”

"Yeah! A few years ago, our chief designer, Michelle, returned to China on a military transport ship. It's not clear that he disappeared at sea. In every case, the damned Germans have been murdered!" ' said the mouth.

"Okay! Don't go any further! We are very sorry about the disappearance of Michel designer. But now we are discussing how to deal with the increasing number of aerial threats." An air force colonel tapped on the table. , his expression was obviously a little weird: "In addition, don't mention that shit cockfighting fighter again. The problem we will discuss next is not something that the old biplane fighter can solve."

"Obviously, the advanced Soviet fighter i-16 appeared over Spain. This very fast fighter made all our aircraft obsolete, but this is not the main content of today's meeting, the main content is the i- 16 fighter jets suffered heavy losses over Spain!" The Air Force intelligence personnel saw that everyone was quiet and continued to introduce the intelligence in their hands.

"God! You mean the Soviet i-16 fighter, which is said to be able to fly at 186 miles per hour, was defeated? The Italian plane?" an aircraft designer asked in disbelief.

The British intelligence officer pressed a photo on the table. There was a vague shadow on the photo, but obviously many features could be seen in the shadow, such as the slender fuselage, the closed cockpit, and the monoplane. Structure: "Franco's National Army used a super fighter that we had never heard of before, easily and thoroughly defeating the Soviet i-16."

The intelligence official said: "The information we have obtained from spies deployed in Germany is not much, but it mentions that several German companies have jointly developed a new type of fighter jet, named after Messerschmitt. , the official code name is the me-109 fighter."

He paused, pointed to various parts of the plane in the photo, and continued: "This plane should be an all-metal structure, with a fully enclosed cockpit, and the aerodynamic 'performance' is terrible. According to us in Spain The intelligence team, and our people in Francon said,

The German plane has flown faster than anyone could have imagined, with many saying it was over 250 mph. "

An Air Force fighter pilot looked at his colleague in horror, and his voice changed a little: "This is impossible! No plane can fly that fast! Even the new fighter pilot project led by Michelle does not have such a flying speed."

The intelligence officer hummed, then resumed his solemn tone to answer his question: "I'm sorry to tell you! This speed is probably true! Because we also have spies in the Air Force of the Republican Army, They have confirmed the existence of German fighter jets from another point of view! They say they are at least 250 mph! More and less!"

"My God! Are you saying that both the Soviet Union and Germany now have fighter jets that we can't match? And one of the fighter jets doesn't even have our technical reserves?"

“In fact, the development of the new superfighter has been seriously delayed by the disappearance of the designer Michel. We now have two fighter options, one is the dreadnought with an all-round rotating turret, one is The first is the Navy-type Dapeng fighter plan. The designs of the two types of aircraft are similar, and the 'performance' is comparable to the Soviet i-16 fighter." An Air Force technical officer frowned and said: "But we need time to experiment. , it will take time to deploy and produce these aircraft."

"Test these two aircraft immediately! Before the end of the year, I want all relevant data to reach a level that can be mass-produced." The RAF Major General, the highest rank present, finally set the tone for the discussion: "Next year, these two aircraft will be immediately Production! The RAF buys 500 of each model."

"Also! Even if the chief designer Michel is gone, you should continue to develop a new future fighter for the Royal Air Force!" He stood up, walked over to the blackboard on one wall of the conference room, and picked up a piece of chalk. : "The Royal Air Force requires future fighter jets that must have a speed of 300 mph!"

He took the chalk and wrote a number "300" on the blackboard, and then continued: "Having a fully enclosed cockpit allows the plane to fly to higher altitudes! Also, the monoplane must be used! Got it? "

"Yes! Sir!" Everyone stood up and stood at attention.

"Designers and manufacturers, I know that you usually develop aircraft and provide us with options, but now is an extraordinary period, so I have to change some of the traditions that we continued before! I hope you can understand! "

"No problem! We support the decision made by the Royal Air Force!" Several designers and merchants nodded.

The German Wehrmacht General Headquarters, General Brauchitch, is looking through this month's army expansion report. In the top-secret cover, it records the important achievements of Germany's expansion of the Wehrmacht army in the past two months.

In the past few days, the German Army has received 70 heavy artillery pieces produced by Krupp, all of which have a caliber of 150 mm. These cannons are the weapons with the largest caliber in Germany at this stage. With the new type of artillery shells, they can hit 20 kilometers away. The goal is definitely a world-class artillery weapon.

If you add 28 trucks, 41 tanks provided by Mercedes-Benz, and more than 5,000 G43 semi-automatic rifles produced by various factories, as well as 12,000 recruits - then the process of Germany's military expansion in the past two months is completely Perfect can be described in two words.

In fact, his current strength is enough to frighten the British and the French. The total number of the Wehrmacht is close to 1 million. He has the most cars and motorcycles in the world, and is equipped with a full 2,700 tanks of various types and armored car.

In addition to the 30 me-109a fighters shipped to Spain to support Franco, the Air Force has deployed 110 such aircraft in the country. The staff has improved the later produced me fighters based on the experience in Spain. In addition to the fuel tanks in the aircraft, two universal pylons were added under the wings - which can hang auxiliary fuel tanks or small bombs.

And Air Force Commander-in-Chief Catherine has another ace in his hand. This month he received 17 ju-87 dive bombers named Stuka by Arcardo. This kind of aircraft is specially designed for attacking the ground. The huge Luftwaffe has one more function: attacking enemy ground targets.

Of course, if the German army has basically recovered, and the German air force is constantly growing, then when it comes to the German navy, the changes this month are enough to describe it as earth-shaking.

In Kiel's shipyard, Germany has strengthened its vigilance. In several large docks farthest from the civilian area of ​​Kiel, shipbuilders began to weld huge hulls in sections. This code-named "q-1a(h)" Shipbuilding plan, the construction of the first aircraft carrier in German history, and one build is two.

These two ships have high hopes by the admirals and will become the only strike force in the German naval surface ship formation that can challenge the enemy warships in the future. Became the nucleus of two separate German naval formations.

All this has been carried out in an orderly manner in the Führer's plan, and the huge war machine of Germany has been running efficiently and is ready to fight to wash away its own shame. Thinking of this, there was a wry smile on the corner of Brausch's mouth: These equipments were conceived by the Führer and the military together. They have not been tested in actual combat. They seem powerful, but they are really confusing.

In fact, some of the army's equipment has been tested in actual combat and the effect is not bad. The air force is so happy that it will wake up from a dream. However, because the navy has no actual combat test, many generals doubt the development direction set by the head of state, but they are still cautiously developing. Weapons and equipment designated by the head of state.

Major General Gascol of the intelligence department knocked on the door he had not closed: "Lieutenant General, we have just destroyed a spy organization affiliated to France and captured four key personnel who tried to steal our fighter drawings, Got caught by the Gestapo. What do you think about it?"

"Have you asked about the embassy?" Brausch asked, putting down the document in his hand.

Gascol nodded and replied: "Yes, our diplomats contacted their embassies, the French are still the same, they do not admit any espionage activities, these people are 'non-existent' in France. . . So they let us deal with it."

"Then deal with it as before! Send it to a concentration camp and make socks!" said Brauchitch.

"Yes! General!" Gascoll turned and walked out.

"Gascol..." Brausitch asked suddenly, "Do you believe everything about the Führer?"

"Of course!" Gaskell replied without thinking. "He is a gift from God to the German people! I will follow him to the death."

"Me too!..." Brausch exhaled, as if talking to himself and as if to persuade himself.
