14 Let the plane fly over the White House
On this day, a group of Belarus suddenly left the New Roman military camp near the Carnival Hotel.
They drove to the Amy Grant Valley in Lincolnshire, more than a hundred kilometers away from Las Vegas.
The barren valley was covered with grass and trees. Marcheno, who came here to observe the terrain in person, found this was a very suitable treasure land for projects.
Because it is secret and has no owner here.
But outside the valley is the endless desert and the mountains that no one can cross. In short, it is impossible to do anything except a career like a plane.
"But how did Charlie know."
Marcheno couldn't even figure it out, but when he thought that the guy had even been to heaven, he didn't think about these things.
After obtaining Marcheno's specific description of the environment, Han Huaiyi directly made a request to Seld.
"I need Councilman James to take this area for New Rome as a real Tesla research base."
Selder was naturally not a mediocre person to be selected as an inspector in the Army aviation field.
After observing the situation there, he said, "Charlie, I must remind you that it will be extremely inconvenient to transport construction materials if you choose there. In addition, Mr. James may help you or not, this is not something I can control."
"The first problem is easy to solve. I have the Chinese engineering organization of the San Francisco Railroad Bureau that can help me. As for the second problem."
Han Huaiyi pulled open the chair and sat down and said, "He will agree, but you have to go there in person."
Then he took the paper and wrote a plan in front of Seld.
He wrote: On the necessity of establishing the US Army Air Force
In his article, Han Huaiyi explained the role of the new thing of the aircraft on the army in local wars, and then discussed the specific significance of the service to national defense, etc.
At the end, he emphasized that the army aviation force not only must be established, but is also destined to evolve into a new military air force independent of the land and sea.
After the unrestrained Xiongwen was finished in one go, Han Huaiyi put it in the envelope and handed it to the stunned Seld: "Some words must be told by you in person. Please tell Mr. James that the ptr of the new Rome will be the basis of everything. In addition, I promise that my allies and I will firmly support Mr. James' decisions, but I hope to get corresponding convenience."
"I understand." After watching Xiongwen, Selder knew that James would reject such a friend unless his mind was in the water.
He immediately set out for Washington.
Han Huaiyi continued to be busy with the Tesla and the Wright brothers in Curtis' factory for the second-generation twin-propeller fighter.
In addition, since he had fired his first shot, he approved Lexico and other Belarus to learn how to fly aircraft. The aircraft operation these days is not complicated. Lexico, who are bold, meticulous and excellent in physical fitness, can quickly soar in the sky.
By the end, Curtis learned to fly a plane.
Only Ford, who is cautious in nature, did not touch this thing.
In just about a week, Selder came back. He excitedly told Han Huaiyi that Mr. James admired his thoughts very much and agreed to his request.
"The Military Commission will obtain that land for free in Lincoln County, Nevada, in the name of the Aviation Division, and then transfer it to the New Rome Group and will fall on paper. Member James has sent a member there to deal with the matter when I set off, which means that you can start construction now."
"Does he have anything else to bring to me?"
"He is looking forward to meeting you soon. I can see that your plan really touched him. Speaking of which, I would like to thank you Charlie. If it weren't for your messenger, I wouldn't have seen him easily. He was satisfied with my work results. I guess you will call me Captain Selder in a short time."
"Let the ambitions be far apart, is it not good for Colonel Selder of the Land Aviation Department and even the future brigadier general of the US Air Force?" Han Huaiyi asked with a smile.
He had good intentions, but Seld sighed: "Charlie, the army is quite senior."
"But it's more important to achievement, let's wait and see."
As they spoke, the No. 1 plane whizzed past the sky above their heads, and its sharp wings instantly shattered Seld's melancholy.
Yes, behind me is New Rome!
"You will help me, right?" He asked Han Huaiyi, who said, "What nonsense is that, we will always help each other. OK, work, boy."
With the efforts of Congressman James, on July 7, 1905, the once peaceful and quiet valley in Nevada welcomed a huge Chinese team.
Leader Feng Caihou.
It was on this day that the twin-engine aircraft was manufactured.
After careful testing and inspection, Han Huaiyi invited relatives and friends such as Ford and Victor on July 10th.
When the TC002, which was painted with white paint, was driven out of the hangar by Lexico, everyone found that the body of the twin-engine aircraft was one-third larger than that of the No. 1 and 0.5 meters higher in height.
In addition, it is equipped with a machine gun model on the nose and a bomb suspension system under the wings.
Of course, guns and bombs are models.
However, the model bomb can be thrown away. The narrow glass bottle with a long tail wing is filled with blue liquid, and the sign will appear when it falls to the ground.
This test flight was still very successful.
And because of the addition of a radio call system, the pilot and the ground can communicate in a timely manner.
As the commander, Han Huaiyi made a command to dive, pull, hover, and drop bombs towards Lexico, Lexico could receive information and feedback in time.
Seeing this scene, Seld couldn't help but feel excited when he remembered the "call for Air Force support" model in the war mentioned by Han Huaiyi in that article.
Han Huaiyi said it very clearly.
The mode of war can then be changed to air force attack, artillery coverage, and infantry assault.
If anyone could master this model first and be able to use it skillfully, even if the French Army, which was known as the most powerful army in Europe at its peak, was reborn, would not be able to withstand this attack.
After Lexico came down, he excitedly told Han Huaiyi and Tesla that the speed and handling of the twin-engine aircraft were much stronger than that of a single-engine aircraft, and it was very stable when fighting the crosswind in the air.
In addition, the bomb suspension system is also very useful, and the bright blue color on the container that became the target is a good proof.
This day is 5 days away from the first stop of the national tour.
Han Huaiyi asked Tesla and Wright brothers: "Can we add one aircraft every tour while ensuring quality?"
"There should be no problem, as long as Mr. Henry's resources can keep up." Tras said truthfully. Now the materials for the plane are provided by Detroit. Ford asked Han Huaiyi what he wanted to do.
