Red Alert 1895

Chapter 816: Three-dimensional War (Part 1)

Seeing the plane soaring in the sky, Wang Guorui also smiled. ←, but those who faced this lift-off for the first time, many people also showed a dumbfounded look. Perhaps for a later generation, airplanes are not a big deal, and even many remote places have heard of airplanes to some extent. But people in this era saw an airplane for the first time, and it was simply unbelievable. After all, from primitive humans to the present, and from ancient times to the present, many people have made efforts to fly into the sky. From some guy getting himself a wing and jumping off a cliff, the results speak for themselves. There are also some people who use various means, even tie themselves to the kite, and the results of such people are not very good. More extreme, that is, tie yourself to a stool and then ignite the rocket, and naturally become a pioneer for aerospace on the spot.

And after so many failures, everyone didn't dare to have extravagant hopes for Feitian. Of course, since Wang Guorui let that rocket loli fly into the sky, the situation that human beings cannot go into the sky has also been broken. Everyone knows that Wang Guorui has a kind of rocket flight equipment, which is very powerful like an angel's equipment. However, people all over the world know that the flying equipment of this rocket loli is surprisingly expensive. People all over the world can also speculate that the flying equipment of Wang Guorui's rocket loli is extremely expensive, even if Wang Guorui is backed by a so-called high-tech local tyrant organization, it can't afford much. If Wang Guorui could equip a large number of flying equipment such as rocket loli, then those foreign devils would immediately surrender without saying a word.

So Wang Guorui's rocket loli is just a strategic deterrent weapon, similar to the nuclear warheads of later generations. This deterrent weapon does not have much use value, it is only used to deter the enemy. So everyone knows that not everyone can fly into the sky.

But now. An airplane has been developed, and the cost of this airplane is very low! Of course, it's just a lot lower than that flying equipment.

"Of course, you may know that the rocket loli next to me can also fly. But I don't deny that the flying equipment is extremely expensive. It is almost impossible for me to make it again. It will cost a lot to make one Yes. However, this aircraft is different. The cost of this aircraft is less than one ten-millionth of that of the flying equipment, and it can be equipped in large quantities. So in the future, you can research and develop it carefully, and then think about how to use it in the military.” Kingdom Ray said.

"Can it be used in the military?" Hu Wei became more sensitive.

Of course, Wang Guorui said: "Of course, our first choice must be used in the military!"

Wang Guorui knows very well that most of the scientific research results. They are all intended to be used in the military first. Aircraft were first used on a large scale in the military, and so were various tanks. Even the famous satellite navigation system of later generations is even more so. Therefore, this aircraft must also be used for military purposes, and it will definitely be developed in the future.

"First of all, I can use the aircraft to conduct reconnaissance, and then help my side's artillery to calibrate!" Wang Guorui said.

Minister of War Chen Liyan's eyes lit up, because he was also an artilleryman, so he naturally knew how great it was to have a plane in the air to help him calibrate. The other generals also nodded. Because this aircraft can also conduct reconnaissance in addition to calibration. This is of course very good. This detection function alone made everyone feel quite satisfied. However, Wang Guorui went on to say a good function.

"In addition to reconnaissance, this aircraft can also conduct combat. After all, when you are reconnaissing the enemy, the enemy can also reconnaissance you. At that time, you must conduct corresponding combat. Then use machine guns to conduct combat, right? ? You can put a machine gun on it, so that the machine guns can also be used for combat, to attack the enemy's aircraft."

"Of course, combat between planes is just a means, not an end. Fighting between fighter jets is to gain air supremacy. Once you have gained air supremacy, then you can consider bombing with planes. If you use artillery, then artillery is very important. It is easy to be restricted by the terrain, and some terrains are not suitable for the use of artillery. Also, once the artillery is calculated by the enemy, it is easy to be attacked by the enemy's artillery in turn. You officers from artillery should also know that once the artillery is When the enemy's artillery hits, it is difficult for anyone to survive. But this plane is different. The plane directly drops bombs in the air, and then immediately turns back after falling to the ground, without entanglement with you at all. And the bombs are dropped in the air, It will not be affected by the terrain. And it can take off from the airport and fight at a long distance. The current range of ordinary artillery will never exceed ten kilometers. Once our aircraft is developed in the future, the combat radius will definitely exceed ten kilometers. The distance of ten kilometers is fleeting, and when they come over and drop the bombs, they will return immediately, and the enemy can only look at the ocean and sigh."

"Also, this plane is also a good choice to deal with the enemy's artillery. The enemy's artillery is too threatening to us, so I can send a plane to attack, so that we don't have to risk our artillery to engage in artillery battles with the enemy. We can Use the plane to destroy the enemy's artillery, at that time the enemy has no artillery, can't our artillery just deal with them casually?"

"Also, there are many. The use of the aircraft is definitely not limited to these. You can think about what other ways to use it. These are also things that allow you to think about it. You can seriously think about what else this aircraft has. way of using it."

Soon, the pilot also found a chance to land. After the plane stopped, the pilot immediately came to Wang Guorui.

"I have seen the emperor, the flight is over!"

Wang Guorui immediately asked, "How long can this plane stay in the air?"

"Reporting to the emperor, this plane can stay in the air for about fifteen minutes." The pilot replied.

"Very good, I'm very satisfied! Next, we will continue to study and try to make him stay in the air for a longer time, and be able to achieve a larger combat radius, and even add more heavy objects. A machine gun, a bomb, etc. can be considered in the design Go in." Wang Guorui said.

Wang Guorui is actually very satisfied with this plane, because he knows what the Wright Brothers' first plane was like. Even the Wright Brothers' first plane could fly at a height of only three and a few meters, and its duration was only fifty-nine seconds, not even a minute. And the plane that I have studied for two years can stay in the air for 15 minutes, and can also fly at a height of no less than 20 meters, which is already very remarkable.

Of course, this is the biggest difference between state support and private research. The Wright Brothers invested in research and development entirely out of hobbies, and then all of them relied on their own economic capabilities and resources for research and development. The resources of the two of them are definitely not as good as the investment of the entire country. If the whole country is willing to invest, then there must be sufficient funds for research and development. Coupled with the "foresight" of Wang Guorui, a traveler, he knew that future aircraft must have a future, and he made up his mind to invest a lot of money in research.

In fact, before they were able to fly, how many people could believe that human beings can control the valve to fly and the engine to fly by themselves? Many people even subconsciously believe that human beings will never be able to fly due to the inertia of history, so they can't study it at all. Even many government officials and wealthy businessmen are like this, so they are unwilling to invest in research aircraft. Without huge capital investment, the Wright Brothers operated their own bicycles while developing airplanes on the other hand. The human, material, energy, and financial resources consumed in this way were extremely huge.

But Wang Guorui is really willing to invest here, because Wang Guorui knows that the aircraft will have a future in the future, and has mobilized scientists from various fields to conduct professional analysis. Some studied mechanics, some studied fluid dynamics, and even experts in various fields came to tackle key problems, so that no matter what they did, they would be better than the Wright Brothers. And they study one aspect of things alone, and in the end it is much faster than the Wright Brothers who rely on their own experience to develop.

And with enough money investment~lightnovelpub.net~resource investment, even talent investment is countless times more than Wright Brothers, and there are various policy support, then if they research out to deal with aircraft, it is not as good as Wright Brothers Wang Guorui will definitely fire them all.

But fortunately, high investment represents often high returns. My first plane is infinitely better than that of the Wright Brothers. The airborne time is more than fifteen times that of theirs, the wind altitude is almost ten times that of theirs, and even the load capacity is not comparable to their plane. As long as you continue to invest in research, then this can be regarded as a good result.

"Fu Tiandi, I'm afraid you have a place in the engineering award of the Ascension Award this time!" Wang Guorui said.

And that Fu Tiandi was immediately dumbfounded, how could there be such benefits? He had also heard about the Ascension Award, but he actually had cakes falling from the sky. In fact, Fu Tiandi also knew that Wang Guorui supported them a lot this time. If he didn't have enough financial support, how could he have such a result?

"Your Majesty, won't our war from now on be three-dimensional?" Qiu Baoren asked. (to be continued.) u
