Chapter 1220 Tracer Going South

"Even if it is purely for the consideration of the Ottoman Turk Empire as an ally, the Empire should send three air brigades to assist in combat." The count thought for a while and added a few more.

Daddy, these things written by the earl are completely fictitious, at least they have nothing to do with the prince directly. To be honest, after Turkey joined the war, the German high-level has provided Turkey with some aviation teams, although the aircraft is relatively old, but In the place that the giant forgot, it was OK to make do with it, but these air teams were not allocated to the earl.

And even if the air fleet is not enough now, does it have anything to do with the prince? Does it matter? There was no relationship at all. The Bavarian Air Force originally only needed to manage the Eastern Front. Even if the Kaiser needs to be mobilized, it can only be resolved through negotiation through the German General Staff. After all, the county magistrate is not as good as the current one. As long as the Eastern Front is unwilling to give it, the General Staff cannot force it. After all, the prince alone has the final say.

In fact, not only did this matter have nothing to do with the prince, but the formation of the aviation force of the High Seas Fleet had nothing to do with the prince. After all, the high seas fleet is the emperor’s fleet, and the emperor’s fleet needs the emperor’s own money to build... But the problem is that the prince is nosy and agrees to provide part of the air fleet. In this way, when Earl Spey asks the prince for the air fleet, the prince will not be able to refuse.

It's not that you can't refuse, but that you can't justify your face! The High Seas Fleet has given hundreds of planes. Isn’t Earl Spey’s side not justified? What's more, Su Xiong was so far away from Europe, and the prince provided supplies and some accessories for Su Xiong to contact the Americans. Earl Spey has to express it anyway. And, most importantly, in the future, the prince needs the help of the Spey fleet when he is going to attack Ukraine and the Caucasus!

"How much do you want?" The prince's telegram was simple. It is winter and the Bavarian Army is under preparation. The entire Russian frontline aircraft inventory is estimated to exceed 300, while the Bavarian and Bohemian Army first-line aircraft inventory exceeds 1,300. In this case, provide the latter with some Aviation assistance is also possible, on the one hand it is to give the earl a face. On the other hand, as an important squadron with more than 10 battleships, it is indeed impossible to justify the absence of an independent air fleet.

"I want Tracer, at least three squadrons! Two deployed in Constantinople and one in Port Erelli! One more seaplane squadron is needed to monitor the Black Sea Fleet." The so-called three The brigade is nothing more than asking prices. A brigade has three squadrons, and one squadron has 18 to 24 aircraft. If there are three brigade, that is nearly 200 aircraft, and nearly 5000 various ground crew and auxiliary personnel. This thing is not that the prince can't give it out, but the deployment is a hassle.

So when it was really needed, the earl just hoped that his hands would have a certain resistance to the sudden appearance of British bombers (reconnaissance aircraft). Single-engine fighters were not easy to deal with these big guys. At present, the best use is the Tracer modified with K-4 bombers. Of course, the current Tracer is not the first time an elite unit composed of elite crews has appeared. It refers to a specialized interceptor unit.

"To him." The prince's reply was also very simple, sending a telegram directly to Prince Leopold who was sitting in Romania. Let him allocate 4 Tracer squadrons to the earl first. As for the situation later, the plane and crew flew directly to Constantinople. The related equipment is maneuvered by railway and waterway. At this time, it was less than 10 days before the British officially launched the bombing!

What is unexpected to future generations is that this time and the unexpected transfer was not discovered by the British. You know, after all, this was the transfer of a whole 4 squadrons of Tracer, a total of 80 double-engine K-4J and L-type fighters flew to Turkey in batches from Bulgaria!

Even if these wings are expanded for nearly 20 meters, the big guy with a length of more than ten meters can only be regarded as a small thing in the air, but the airport that provides protection for these aircraft is a behemoth! Ordinary, hurriedly established field airports cannot provide enough support for these big guys. You must know that, according to the internal requirements of the Bavarian Air Force, an airport for 2 squadrons of tracers must have at least 4 tracks over 800 meters. There is a hangar that can hold 30 aircraft, and a bunker warehouse that can hold 100 tons of aviation fuel and more than 80 tons of ammunition. And a certain level of mechanical maintenance. These things are not piled together in a small place, and in order to clear the site, the surrounding vegetation has to be cut down, looking from the air, it is almost impossible to hide. But why did the British ignore this?

"It seems to be a bit far away from the port of Constantinople." Captain Halley of the Night Scythe Squadron who had arrived earlier is driving his plane on a patrol between the base and Constantinople. Looking at the distant harbor and the distant base behind him, the captain shook his head involuntarily.

It is naturally impossible for the earl to agree to let the Turkish side provide an airfield for the upcoming German aviation squadron. In fact, this is impossible, let alone Turkey now. You just let the United States of World War II, without sufficient preparation and sufficient manpower and machinery, it is impossible to build an airport in a few days~lightnovelpub.net~ so the method proposed by the earl is to occupy the magpie's nest.

Before the emergence of aircraft, when Zeppelin was still the well-deserved air supremacy, as Germany’s most important ally, considering some future connections between the two sides, in the periphery of Constantinople, the German government contributed funds and the Turkish government contributed People and places built a huge airship field for these huge airships. This airship field can accommodate up to 4 Zeppelin airships at the same time. You know, these airships are giants up to 170 meters in length! And since such a huge airship can be docked, the space of this airship site is naturally large enough, so the earl thought for a while, or use it first?

Then, the two squadrons of Night Scythe and Scimitar, the first to enter Turkey, used the airship base codenamed Wolf's Nest as their foothold. And this airship base is 80 kilometers away from Constantinople! Because of this distance, they avoided the British aviation investigation. At the very beginning, the British actually came here to stroll, and then discovered that this was an old airship base, they didn’t care about it anymore. What they did not expect was that the Germans deployed the first two squadrons of Tracer here before the airstrike began!
