Chapter 325: The killer weapon against airships

On the streets of Beijing, the sound of dingling and dinglingling bells overwhelmed the sound of human beings shouting.

If you take a airship and look down from the air, you will definitely find this huge bicycle trend. In Beijing, bicycles have become one of the main means of transportation and have become a fashion. This cheap and simple tool has surpassed horse-drawn carriages and rickshaws.

Doudou, suddenly, a slightly different sound rang behind the bicycle crowd. The crowd consciously divided the two sides into a lane, but they all looked behind excitedly.

A four-wheeled car drove past the middle, and behind the car was a team of guards following closely.

Ye Zhikui, sitting in the car, looked out the window in a daze. This was a Hongqi car produced by China, produced by an Asian car factory. The first batch was sold out as soon as it was released.

After Asian automobile factories produced civilian cars, they have been studying how they became military, and armored vehicles were about to emerge.

After more than half a year of clearance by the Three Kingdoms coalition forces, the Philippine army had long been defeated and lost a large area of ​​territory. Even the leader Akui was arrested alive. Most of the Philippine independent elements were driven to the mountainous areas. Although there were sporadic battles since then, it was no longer hindered from the overall situation.

After this round of expansion, the territory of the Republic of China government reached the highest level of Chinese history and reached its peak in recent times. The top priority of the Chinese government is to consolidate the newly occupied land and digest the fruits of victory.

The most important thing is to consolidate and digest the northwest, northeast, southwest regions, ***, *** and other places, which is obtained by themselves through military means, it cannot be ignored that the number of Han people in these places is very small, and bloody rule alone cannot maintain any order. Only by letting the people see the changes they bring can improve the people's living standards, so that they can truly be integrated.

The vast land, rich resources and large investments of the three northeastern provinces, the three provinces, which were originally sparsely populated, gave the soil for the rapid implementation of the new policy, and the ordinary people who had benefited from indifference to positive responses. The new policy was implemented very quickly.

That's because the three eastern provinces are just a blank piece of paper, and Ye Zhikui and Zhang Zhidong are allowed to outline it.

These things are not good enough to be used in the densely populated Central Plains. A large amount of land in these places is concentrated in the hands of these landlords and gentry. Reducing rent and interest rates cannot fundamentally solve the problem. Fortunately, in a short period of time, the expansion of territory weakened these contradictions. However, in the later stage, with the surge in population, such problems will be highlighted.

The Ministry of Agriculture, Industry and Commerce has already begun to study how to solve it, but the proposal is still repeated, forcibly purchasing land and distributing it to farmers.

In this way, it will inevitably cause disaster, which is something Ye Zhikui doesn't want to see.

Ye Zhikui wanted to learn from the Western style of later generations, so that the country could transform from an agricultural power to an industrial power, but obviously China does not have this condition yet.

Ye Zhikui took a deep breath, and it was not until this time that he and this country had just started to set out.

Fortunately, there is still enough time for him to prepare.

The contradictions in countries around the world have not yet been cleared, and frictions have not yet been enough to break out. All countries are still accumulating strength, conducting arms races, and actively preparing for war.

According to the information obtained by Ye Zhikui, all countries have developed airships with the same technology as China, but he is not worried because he has a big killer.

As for Alaski, the US government was unwilling to accept its own defeat. After defeating the Spanish Navy in the Caribbean, they were full of confidence and, with the momentum of victory, dispatched a team of 5,000 people from the country to encircle and suppress the Independence Army of Alaska in Alaska.

Yes, it is the Independence Army of Miners. Although both China and the United States know what is going on and they know that they are not miners, both sides pretend to be ignorant.

The United States pretends to be a serious Chinese team, always called the Alaska official, and China also pretends to have never sent troops there.

However, privately, the two teams have actually had countless confrontations.

To the frustration of the Americans, all of them ended in failure, defeating the Spanish army of Santiago and tasted failures again and again in Alaska.

The miners' army not only became more and more braver as the battles became, but even the towns and towns in Alaska were flooded by the Chinese people who followed. The Chinese who built railways for the Americans came to Alasky to make gold. Only then did the US government realize that the great contributions made by Chinese workers to the United States and the dominance of China and the United States inevitably favored China.

In this way, Ye Zhikui slowly released the news and intends to acquire Alaska from the Americans.

After several considerations, the US government believed that Alaska had no possibility of military recovery, so it had to accept this faita fact in frustration and sell the land at a good price while the Chinese were willing to bargain.

After a bargaining, the US government finally agreed to sell it to China at twenty times the original price. This result was not unacceptable for the Americans. Although gold mines were found in Alaska, they didn’t know whether they had a lot of or little. After all, they could make such huge profits by buying and selling. Why not do it?

"Principal, do you think the plane can really fly?" Qiu Jin, who was sitting next to him, asked curiously, interrupting Ye Zhikui's reverie.

"This, Feng Ru and the others said that taking off means taking off. After all, the words of engineers are always much more honest than those of politicians." Ye Zhikui said with emotion.

"Then I must sit on it and try it!" Qiu Jin said excitedly with a flushed face.

Ye Zhikui objected rarely: "If you want to go to heaven, you can take a flight. The technology of airplane is not yet mature, so I dare not let you, a little girl, take this thing."

Qiu Jin curled his mouth and said dissatisfiedly: "Those pilots are not afraid. What's the point of being afraid of by the female hero Jianhu?"

Ye Zhikui wanted to say it again, but the car had already been sent out of the capital and reached the suburbs. Although a considerable road was built between the capital and the Yanshan base, it was bumpy and obviously not suitable for cars to drive.

After a bumpy shaking, Qiu Jin accidentally fell sideways in Ye Zhikui's arms.

The warm and soft jade in my arms emits a faint fragrance of daughters, refreshing and stimulating Ye Zhikui's senses.

What made Ye Zhikui even more embarrassed was that he felt that his right hand was covering a lush, smooth, elastic and softness with a long experience. Ye Zhikui, who was experienced in this life, naturally knew what it was.

He dared to swear that he did not do it on purpose, but the car swayed repeatedly, causing the softness to keep jumping out of his hands, bounced up, and then slumped, especially when the object was wearing a military uniform and looking for excellence, which made people feel strange.

Qiu Jin seemed to feel something was wrong, and popped away from Ye Zhikui's arms in panic. He almost screamed and hurriedly sorted out his clothes.

Seeing Ye Zhikui who was more embarrassed than her, she couldn't help but cover her mouth without making a sound, but her eyes still showed shock and shyness, and the slow love continued to sprout in her heart.

"President, are you okay?" When the two of them were embarrassed and speechless, the driver in front turned around and asked softly.

Ye Zhikui pretended to be indifferent and replied, "If I were a few years older, my body would be dismantled by you."

The driver knew that Ye Zhikui was joking, and laughed foolishly, and stared at the road ahead cautiously.

Qiu Jin felt that her heart seemed to jump out of her chest, especially when the driver turned his head, although she looked straight ahead with an expressionless face, from the fact that she clutched the corner of her clothes with both hands, it was obvious that she was in panic.

Her body has been for more than 20 years, and even when she was taking a bath, she rarely touched that place. Unexpectedly, Ye Zhikui touched and held it today.

However, when Qiu Jin secretly glanced at the handsome face that often appeared in her dreams, she couldn't feel hatred in her heart. Instead, she felt a little excited and shy in her heart. What made her feel even more panicked was that she felt a little fond of Ye Zhikui's casual touch in her heart, instead she felt a little fond of Ye Zhikui's inadvertent touch.

What's wrong with me? No, my ideal is to be Qin Liangyu of the Ming Dynasty. Leaving the principal's side, I should do what I should do.

Qiu Jin felt very ashamed of the thought buried in his heart, and couldn't help but say to himself secretly.

"Principal, I want to discuss something with you." Qiu Jin stammered and was about to put forward his own ideas.

Ye Zhikui looked out the window and suddenly smiled and said, "It's here, let's go out. By the way, what do you want to say."

Qiu Jin was like a deflated balloon, and he plucked up all his courage for a moment, and said, "It's nothing, I want to say I won't take the plane."

"Of course, if something happens to you, I don't know how to explain it to your family." Ye Zhikui thought she was still thinking about that matter and replied domineeringly.

Qiu Jin felt a hint of sweetness in his heart.

On the wide cement open space in front of the Yanshan Flight Testing Field, there were crowds of people. Everyone was excitedly looking at the large wooden shelf with simple structure parked on the flight field.

This is the killer weapon against airships.

Almost everyone in the entire base stopped the work and squeezed here. They couldn't help but feel unhappy. After many tests, the base was fully confident of sending the plane to the sky.

Feng Ru and Hua Hengfang stood in front, and his wife Katherine stood beside Feng Ru. Yanshan Base attaches great importance to confidentiality work, and the families of the main researchers were taken here. Katherine graduated from an American university and has great ability. After marrying Feng Ru, she also actively devoted herself to her husband's career.

Looking at Catherine's happy look, Ye Zhikui knew that she did not regret her choice. At that time, their wedding caused a great sensation in this small place, and Ye Zhikui also attended as a special guest.

However, at the wedding, Feng Ru expressed that she only loved Catherine in her life, and Ye Zhikui had only blessings and admiration.

Hua Hengfang smiled and looked at the young Feng Ru next to her. The plane could have been able to fly briefly before Feng Ru returned to China. After Feng Ru returned to China, the two teamed up to innovate and renovated this technology several times. Now, the plane can not only take off, but also perform in the air for more than an hour.

Ye Zhikui and Qiu Jin also squeezed into the front of the crowd, looking at this new thing with interest.

Compared with the Flyer One, the Wright brothers on the other side of the ocean, the unnamed plane in front of them is much more perfect. The Wright brothers have complained about Feng Ru's abducting his sister. In addition, they studied the chemical effects of Feng Ru and the other three for more than a year. Their Flyer One appeared a few years earlier, but the flight time was not enough to be flattered, only a short minute.

It is even worse than the aircraft developed by Hua Hengfang alone. It is just that of course the Chinese government deliberately concealed it, which has led to the Wright brothers' reputation in the world.

The entire plane is made of wooden, and even the skeleton of the wings is not other than a thin iron sheet on it. In order to prevent the plane from disintegrating when flying, each connection is reinforced with wire bolts, which can accommodate two people's closed cockpits and allow the flight to travel higher.

Of course, judging by Ye Zhikui's forward-looking eyes, this plane is not only simple and strange, but also not guaranteed safety. Fortunately, he had already given up Qiu Jin's idea, otherwise he would not be worried.

Feng Ru stepped forward with excitement and did the final inspection with several engineers. As if he was stroking Catherine's smooth skin, Feng Ru was obsessed with touching the iron sheet. He knew that his dream was about to be completed.

"President, I want to test the flight myself." The engineer finished the inspection soon after, Feng Ru walked to Ye Zhikui and said seriously.

Which show did you perform? There were regulations before that the main designers are not allowed to test flights in person, in order to prevent the tragedy in history from happening again.

"No!" Ye Zhikui vetoed firmly without thinking.

Feng Ru insisted on his own opinion: "President, I know you are afraid that something happened to me, but looking at various countries, which aircraft designer did not test flights by himself. Researching aircraft is both a job and a dream for me, blue sky and white clouds, not to mention, I am most familiar with this aircraft. Only when I personally test it can I better find out the shortcomings, redesign the parameters, and take our flying career to a higher level."

Although Ye Zhikui knew that he was right, he still said stubbornly: "If it doesn't work, it doesn't work."

Feng Ru looked at the foolish president in front of her with a funny look, and was amused and laughed and cried, so she had to pull Hua Hengfang over to plead with her.

"President, I think you'd better promise him. If I hadn't been this age, I would have wanted to go down and try it myself." Hua Hengfang also looked at the plane with her eyes wide open.

Feng Ru solemnly said: "President, I promise you that the altitude and speed of this test flight are definitely within the normal range."

Ye Zhikui finally understood the stubborn spirit of the scientist. He believed that if he didn't agree, Feng Ru might go to the test flight secretly.

I had to say reluctantly: "Remember your words, if you violate this time, it will not be easy next time."

"Thank you, President, please name this plane." Feng Ruru said in spring.

"Just call her Chang'e!" Ye Zhikui was not humble and said a name that everyone could agree with.

Two rails fixed to wood were placed on the ground in front of Chang'e, and the inclination was set to make the aircraft easy to glide. Feng Ru directed the engineers to carefully place Chang'e on the rails.

"Feng Ru, it depends on you." Ye Zhikui's heart started beating involuntarily, and the crowd around him also held his breath and watched Feng Ru slowly enter the cockpit.

"Report to the President, I can take off at any time." Feng Ru made an OK gesture to the crowd around her, and then looked at her Catherine and said, "Catherine, I love you. From the moment you came to China, I have been determined to spend my whole life with you."

After all, Feng Ru has lived in the United States for so long, and her style is still much more bold and open compared to that of the Chinese in the same era.

Catherine replied in tears: "Dear Feng, I'm waiting for you to come back."

In this era, the probability of an aircraft crash is relatively high, but due to flight speed and altitude, even if the crash occurs, the chance of surviving is still very high.

"In the history of flight, write our Chinese names." Ye Zhikui waved his hand and responded excitedly.

"yes!"

Feng Ru wore a simple windscreen.
