This was a good time. As long as you had money, you could buy anything.
At the end of October, the production equipment for the new aerospace factory that Zhang Hongping had purchased from the international market entered the port of Longguang City. Hao Dawei and the other four brought all the production lines of the Liupan Aerospace Factory to Jiangcheng. Luo Zhanghong was waiting for them at the Sino-Ming border. This project would be under the General Equipment Bureau of the Ministry of National Defense.
The research and development didn't take much time. The mature research results of the Jinling University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, the motors of the Longshan Motor Factory, the batteries of the Longshan Battery Plant in Guyi City, and the rotor vertical takeoff and landing aircraft assembled by the Jiangcheng Aerospace Industry Co., Ltd. were unveiled to the world before the Old Year. Its core technology was the 360v8000ah battery pack. It could allow a two-ton, 3.5-ton rotor vertical takeoff and landing aircraft to have a cruising radius of 3,000 kilometers and a maximum speed of 780 kilometers. Zhang Hongping still remembered the name Chen Weizheng said when he first met him: "Sky Jeep." He named the rotor vertical takeoff and landing aircraft this way.
On the day of the test flight, Chen Weizheng, Maud Bundle, Tang Wei, and the Xinming government came to the Jiangcheng Aerospace Factory. The factory was located on the banks of the Loy River. It had beautiful scenery and a wide field of vision. The test pilot drove a small, strange-looking aircraft out of the hangar. Four large circular fans blew wind to the back. The aircraft was pushed by the wind to slowly drive in front of Chen Weizheng and the others.
This aircraft was equipped with an anti-aircraft machine gun. At the same time, it could carry 200 Qinglong 17 baseball bat missiles. The missile launcher automatically loaded the missiles and launched them. The fully armed Sky Jeep had two people on board, the pilot and the backup pilot. The backup pilot would only work when the pilot was in an abnormal situation. Otherwise, he could only be a backup or take turns with the pilot.
The former commander of the Air Force of the Wa Kingdom and the current commander of the Air Force of the Shin Myung Province, General Wu Ke, was very interested in this aircraft. He believed that this was a real armed helicopter. If there were a thousand or thousands of aircraft attacking a certain area at the same time, just the hundreds of thousands of high-explosive missiles would be enough to form a destructive attack.
The "Sky Jeep" pilots of the aviation school were being trained batch by batch. They were training 10,000 pilots to fly 5,000 planes at the same time in the skies of Siam. This was the plan General Wu had been mulling over for a long time, and it was also Chen Weizheng's goal.
After the test pilot contacted the tower, he was ready to take off. The four large fans changed from a vertical angle to a parallel angle. The sound of the motors increased, and the speed of the fans increased. Under the concerted efforts of the four fans, the not-so-heavy fuselage was quickly pulled up. In an instant, it rose to a height of a hundred meters. In the air, the four fans changed from parallel to backward, and the fuselage began to fly forward, faster and faster. The plane rolled, spun, accelerated, and stopped abruptly in the air. It performed many movements that other planes could not do. Its sensitivity and acceleration made everyone on the ground look at it.
Zhang Hongping told Chen Weizheng that the production cost of this aircraft was very low, and the cost of using it was even lower. However, it was very reliable and safe. It was an epoch-making aerial weapon.
It quickly reached mass production and achieved stable production. Then, the Air Jeep combat unit was quickly formed and thrown into the war. After the production of 10,000 planes, the Air Jeep would be the newest and most creative combat weapon in the war of unification of Southeast Asia and the Indo-China Peninsula. After the war began, this type of aircraft would appear in the international arms market. The civilian version would also appear soon. The production of 300,000 planes per year would meet the needs of all industries. Jiangcheng Aerospace Corporation would obtain its first bucket of gold through this aircraft.
Maud Bundle said to Chen Weizheng, "I admire you more and more. You are getting more and more creative. You can even think of such a strange thing."
"I am just integrating our resources. There are batteries, motors, missiles, anti-aircraft guns, and the research and development of the Jinling University of Aeronautics and Astronautics as well as the foundation of the aerospace industry." Chen Weizheng said, "I am just putting these things together to create a new toy. It is not considered creative."
"Weizheng, you must not belittle yourself. As a central figure, you might not necessarily be better than others. However, there is one thing that he is definitely better than others. That is the control of resources, the integration of the forces at hand, and the full use of the available forces." Luo Zhanghong said, "From this point of view, Weizheng is already qualified to be a leader."
Tang Wei said, "I agree with Old Luo's opinion. Weizheng, because you insist on not showing up, our group still lacks a sense of unity. We don't know who to revolve around. We can't revolve around Uncle Zheng, right? Personally, I think that if you don't show up, it will affect the development of our business. It is time for you to show up. "
Wu, on the other hand, had a different opinion. He already knew that this group of people would definitely take over the Indo-China Peninsula. However, he still didn't know what they would do after that. It was possible that they would attack the Malay Archipelago or the Ganges River Valley in Tibet. However, the earlier Chen Weizheng showed up, the more disadvantageous it would be for their work. This was because whether it was attacking the Indo-China Peninsula or the Ganges River Valley, they would always be criticized by the international community. If the current cabinet could not withstand the pressure of the international community, it would have to be adjusted. The new cabinet prime minister could be Chen Weizheng. In fact, he was wrong. Chen Weizheng would definitely not become the prime minister of the cabinet. With Chen Weizheng's lazy personality, he was definitely not a talent for internal management.
Even so, Wu still expressed his disagreement with Chen Weizheng showing up too early.
Air Force General Wu Ke was different. He said that if Chen Weizheng did not show up in the political world, then he should show up in the air force. This was because Chen Weizheng had the right to speak more than anyone else in the room about how to use the "Sky Jeep" to design a series of new tactical ideas and strategies.
Chen Weizheng told Wu Ke that he would often go to the air force to play, but he would not take up a position in the air force. Strategy and tactics mainly depended on the air force staff headquarters. Don't count on him. He had never even piloted a plane before, let alone any air combat experience. If he only knew how to talk on paper, he would not be able to make mistakes.
After watching the flying performance, it was time for the aerial attack performance. Two "Sky Jeeps" rose into the air and aimed at the predetermined target with their anti-aircraft guns. Then, they each fired five missiles. After ten missiles, the small hill that was used as a target was almost completely flattened. Everyone once again felt the power of the high-explosive bomb and the Qinglong 17's fast and violent attack ability. This was the first time that Wu Da Hua Chai, Wu Ke, and the others had seen the live ammunition performance of the Qinglong 17. They felt a strong sense of powerlessness towards the Qinglong 17's size and speed. They felt that they had no way to stop it and could only watch it get blown up.
Luo Zhanghong said, "This Qinglong 17 is slightly bigger than the Qinglong 15. Its shooting range and firing speed are increased. However, the explosive power is completely different. Relatively speaking, the Qinglong 15 is more suitable for handheld use, while the Qinglong 17 is more suitable for airplanes."
The head of the munitions factory and Chen Weizheng's classmate, Huang Geyuan, said, "The Qinglong 17 is an explosive bomb. Qingshan Town's Munitions Factory does not produce it. They will directly use the Qinglong 18. It has the same length as the Qinglong 17, but its diameter is double. Its shooting range and firing speed are not much different. Its explosive power is three times that of the Qinglong 17. It's just that the cost is higher. "
"The bigger the weapon, the lower the practical value, and the higher the threat. What we want to start is some local wars. It's neither big nor small. The big countries don't want to interfere, but the small countries can't. Therefore, we have to consider the weapons we use. Weapons that are too big will cause too much stimulation. If a big country can't accept it and directly find trouble with us, then it will be a life and death situation. It's not worth it. " Chen Weizheng said, "But you don't have to worry about the big countries interfering. If there is a big country interfering, we will organize guerrillas to go to their country and plunder. I won't let go until I make a mess of their country."
"I'm good at plundering." Wu Guangxian said.
"When necessary, I will release this idea. It will also be effective against the big countries who have the idea." Wu said.
"I agree." Zheng Jianer said, "Rich countries are most afraid of having their pots and jars broken."
"We should try not to use this method. If we use it too much, it will become a story of the boy who cried wolf. Third Fatty Jin from the Northeast used this method all the time. After using it too much, it doesn't have much effect anymore." Chen Weizheng said, "Release part of today's live-fire drill on the news to make our neighbors more nervous. I want to see how long this tight rubber band can last."
Maud Bundle smiled and said that Chen Weizheng had a bad conscience and a lot of schemes. If the rubber band was stretched too long, there would only be one result, and that was to break. There would only be two results if the rubber band broke. One was the collapse of the whole country, and the other was an irrational large-scale attack. No matter which one it was, it would be beneficial to Shin Myung Province. If the whole country collapsed, Shin Myung Province would take advantage of the situation and rush in at lightning speed before the international community could react. An irrational large-scale attack was also a good thing. Shin Myung Province, which was under attack, would defend themselves and take the side of morality.
Wu said that this was easy to handle. If one provocation didn't work, they would repeatedly provoke the other party. There would always be one time when the other party would be provoked. Zheng Jian 'er said that they shouldn't provoke the other party too much. If the other party was provoked too much and became weak, it would be troublesome.
Chen Weizheng said that the best time to attack was when the other party was weak.
Luo Zhanghong said that it was terrible to be Chen Weizheng's opponent. Any abnormal state could lead to Chen Weizheng's attack. Chen Weizheng said that when masters fought, it might be just a breath. A breath could lead to defeat or victory. It was the same between countries. It was just a matter of who could defeat who.
The plane landed and stopped in front of Chen Weizheng and the others. Chen Weizheng and the others walked to the front of the plane and looked at the strange thing in front of them. They knew that with this killing machine, there was no more suspense in the Zhongnan Peninsula.
The pilot reported the flying situation to the leaders and praised the aircraft, saying that it was the most stable, safest, and quietest aircraft in history. Flying this kind of aircraft was a real pleasure.
