Chapter 70: Test flight

The next day, dawn was early. Zhang Shusheng woke up after the roar, and after two hours of working in the back room, the knock on the outside door rang. When I opened the door, I saw Lu Yunyan wearing a skirt and standing there.

"Let's go, after breakfast, we'll take your cousin and cousin to see one of the gifts I prepared for them." Although Lu Yunyan is too shy, she hasn't shared the room with herself, but she has a habit. In the morning, she must be neatly dressed, and the most beautifully dressed will knock on the door and wake herself up. In her words, every morning, Zhang Shusheng will see her most beautiful herself.

Unfortunately, Zhang Shusheng has the habit of getting up early, otherwise he can still lie on the bed and let her lift the quilt.

After having breakfast, Zhang Shusheng took the landing family into the special car No. 2 in Dongchuan District. Unlike the special car No.1, which represents Zhang Shusheng's highest status, it is used for formal occasions. The special car with the red letter number plate is for Zhang Shusheng's daily use.

The convoy came out of Lishuping quickly and headed down the mountain along a very well-maintained highway. After half an hour, the convoy finally stopped in front of a huge military base.

There are many shallow hills and hills around Lishuping, but this military base is extremely flat. Along with the surrounding area is a maping river. At the time when the site was selected for construction of this large-scale base, the experts in the engineering team also took a lot of thought and ran around a dozen miles in a bicycle to find such a very large open space.

The fence and barbed wire isolated the entire military base from the outside world. Over the fence, you can see some tall buildings standing inside. The gate of the base is very large, allowing four or five trucks to drive side by side.

"salute!!"

Many people have been standing at the base of the base, including the base's chief executive, waiting for a long time there. After receiving a notice from the Mindanao headquarters, everyone said that after the teacher came to inspect the base, everyone screamed and ran out without waiting for breakfast.

"Leader, Lieutenant Colonel Fan Siran, base commander, and all base commanders to report to you."

"Check the documents first." Zhang Shusheng pointed to himself and said that although he, as the spiritual leader of the militia and the highest commander, has the only immunity in the militia system, he still insists on starting from himself, everyone When entering or leaving an important military base, regardless of the level of duty, the documents will prevail, and the security level of the base in front requires the authorization of the headquarters of the Civilian League. Otherwise, even if Wu Tiejun, deputy head of the militias, came, he would not be able to enter the gate.

Fan Siran personally checked the credentials of Zhang Shusheng and Lu Yunyan, as well as the two brothers and sisters of Lu Bingwen from the headquarters of the Youth League.

"Chairman, the inspection is complete." Fan Siran, with both legs, saluted the report.

"Let's go. It's a fine day today. How's the preparation going?"

"Everything is ready, you are waiting for the teacher to come. Experts and pilots are waiting on the runway." Although Fan Siran often saw Zhang Shusheng, every time he saw this seemingly not serious chief, He has a fear and admiration. This teacher can not only criticize everyone with an iron face, but also can objectively praise progress. They can also lay down to participate in scientific research and work hard with everyone.

It turned out that Zhang Shusheng came to inspect the test flight of the aircraft today.

However, because Zhang Shusheng brought a special guest today, the base commander Fan Siran did not repeat the detailed parameters of this aircraft, and he also knew that the division's estimates of these data were clearer than himself. Speak for yourself, there are suspicions of leaks, the teacher did not say that they can not manage it.

The history of the development of airplanes by the People's League can be traced back to 1918. In the first five-year plan, solving the problem of the presence of airplanes was listed as a priority development project at the same time as internal combustion engines, preliminary electronics industries, and precision factories.

Because there are returning scholars and foreign experts who have been called back with high salaries, and several aviation experts who Zhang Shusheng has recruited from Germany, it can be said that the start of the flight mission of the civilian group has gone smoothly. The biplane canvas wooden plane got into the sky.

but. Easy to develop at the beginning.

From the first biplane to the sky, to the single-wing, metal skin, and new high-horsepower aircraft developed in mid-1923. During this period, I experienced too many difficulties. Nearly every scholar of the first institute of aviation research and the technicians of the aircraft factory manufacturing factory could say the difficulties that they had encountered like several zhens. Apart from that, the plane fell several times. Fortunately, no one was injured.

the reason is simple! For the civilian groups, the manufacture of aircraft was completely from scratch.

From the beginning of the aircraft research team consisting of only a dozen experts and technical school students, to the next few years, the aerodynamics, aircraft power engineering, materials science, and structural science of Southwest University and Xiaoqingshan Advanced Technical School, Outstanding graduates of physics, mathematics, and other majors have entered batches of key research institutes, as well as returning students and patriotic overseas Chinese recruited overseas. Although they are not necessarily the best, many people are completely incompetent at first For R & D work, the only thing they will know is the books.

But after five years of bumps and turns, these immature young people gradually matured under the leadership of their predecessors.

What I have to say here is a young man named Feng Ruhai.

This young scholar, who is only one word more than his predecessor Feng Ru, is an orphan and possesses amazing aircraft design talents. It took him only two years to graduate from Southwest University and returned to China after studying abroad for 1 year. Although he did not Bring back a degree from any foreign university, but with his unique talent in aircraft design, he has overwhelmed domestic and foreign scholars in the Institute, and has directly served as the director of the Institute of Aeronautics and the chief aircraft designer.

With the small-scale production of the precision manufacturing plant, the first new piston engine was successfully manufactured by the engine manufacturing plant that invested heavily in construction (because in the small-scale trial production precision machinery plant, some are related to the machining accuracy of engine manufacturing The problem has not been completely solved yet, Zhang Shusheng temporarily provided some key components). The mission of the militia finally reached a great level.

Zhang Shusheng, who was personally involved in engine manufacturing and aircraft design during the period, had almost an unforgettable feeling about the test flight of this aircraft. It ’s not easy, it ’s really difficult. If you want to find the three most difficult experiences in the practical process of the current scientific research of the civilian group, then it must be: aircraft manufacturing, electronics manufacturing, precision manufacturing.

Others laughed that he had no force but did not expand on a large scale, but did not know what he had been doing these years. In addition to government and military affairs, in scientific research, he often wore workers' clothes to go to the front line of scientific research and worked overtime overnight. Solving a key problem, mentioning technical staff, teaching potential students who have just graduated, and groaning with researchers, eating and drinking together are just commonplace. All this took most of his time in five years.

Sometimes he even thought that if he were God, he would recruit all the outstanding talents and snap his fingers. Giving some drawings solved everything.

However, the actual situation is that he needs to wait for the students of the technical school and Southwest University to graduate slowly under the guidance of high-paid Chinese and foreign teachers, and he needs to wait for the return of the international students sent by his own expense.

He needed to recruit those patriotic overseas Chinese who were technical and scholars one by one. He needed to coax back the Chinese children who had finally gone abroad and studied in major universities in the West and coaxed into this mountain stream.

He needs to go abroad as a thief to get foreign experts piecemeal. He needs to go into the workshop shirtless. He needs to lie on the table for four or five hours to draw drawings without lifting his butt.

And because he personally took the lead, his unique scientific courage infected everyone. Not only are the Chinese employees crazy, but foreign scholars are crazy overtime. Almost every foreign scholar has this experience: staying up all night, not returning all night, hungry for cold food, and thirsty to drink boiled water, in order to overcome one technical problem. Then he was drunk with him while counting the prizes he received.

Finally, in 1920, the militia had its first verification tank. In 1921, with its own electronics factory, in 1922 with its own precision factory and engine factory, in 1923, with the test flight of this new aircraft,

Although these scientific and technological plans are not listed in the first five-year plan, they have produced tangible and far-reaching results.

This fighter jet, named the J-1, represents that the civilian group has temporarily caught up with Westerners in the pace of aircraft modernization. The design idea of ​​this fighter aircraft refers to the German Messerschmitt BF-109 fighter that appeared only ten years later. Although the data of the J-1 is still quite different from this famous World War II aircraft, its performance is still good. . In terms of design philosophy, it has surpassed the West.

With a wingspan of 8.62 meters, a length of 8.27 meters, a height of 2.3 meters, an empty weight of 2,330 kg, a maximum speed of 390 kilometers, a ceiling of 8,000 meters, and a range of 500 kilometers. Weapons are equipped with a 22-year 30mm machine gun and two 1922-type 12.7mm large-caliber aviation machine guns specially developed for it.

After arriving at the airport runway, the brothers and sisters of the Lu family were completely embarrassed. They had not seen any planes in Guangxi, nor had their fathers. They only saw in the newspaper that there were planes over Guangdong, and they were all small and ugly. I also heard that Sun Yat-sen in Guangdong seemed to be making aircraft.

The aircraft in front of them made them feel a chilling feeling, the majestic shape, the large-caliber barrel protruding under the wing, it also represents that it belongs to a killing weapon.

"Let the plane be ready to take off!" Zhang Shusheng turned to Feng Ruhai, the chief designer of the Aviation Research Institute,

Zhang Shusheng looked at the brothers and sisters in the Lu family who were a little dreadful next to him. The reason why I brought them to see the test flight of the aircraft was not simply to win over my relatives, but to completely go to Lu Rongting's heart disease. Although this type of aircraft is very advanced in China, it is at the same level as the level of aircraft in the same period abroad, and he is not afraid of any leaks.

Marrying Lu Yunyan is one aspect, and it is another aspect that he can successfully win Guangxi. He would rather let two children of the Lu family see the power of this type of aircraft, and then know their true strengths, so as to stabilize the cooperation between the two parties.

I showed them a J-1 aircraft, and they were shocked at most, not to mention the leak.

After receiving the order from the tower, the pilot started to start the aircraft. After less than 400 meters of rolling, the entire aircraft gradually left the ground, the nose slightly lifted, and finally took off. Ten minutes later, the plane returned to the base, landed again, and finally stopped on the runway. The pilot also came over to salute and reported the test flight.

"Rapporteur, everything went well during the flight."

"Tough work!" Zhang Shu returned a military salute.

"Papapapap ..." Although not the first successful test flight, all scholars, including Zhang Shusheng, who participated in the research of J-1, applauded.

The brothers and sisters of the Lu family also recovered from the previous trance. They looked at each other and saw each other's surprise.

"Brother polypropylene, why don't we arrange another live-fire shooting?" Normally, the base conducts live-fire shooting training alone.

"No need, with the speed, height and configuration of heavy machine guns of this type of aircraft, once they fly over the enemy, it will be a naked slaughter." Of course, Lu Penglun, who graduated from the Military Academy of Guangxi Army, is not an idiot. With this kind of aircraft, everyone will be shocked. "Brother Shu, it looks like you will be in Guangxi in the future, and my father will be assured."

There is no need to look at anything anymore. Lu polypropylene already knows that Zhang Shusheng has countless factories and advanced weapons that are only available to Western talents. Is there more to say about ordinary weapons and equipment?

Qian Duo has good weapons. Is it difficult to fight a warlord like Tang Jiyao? I'm afraid that other people should pray, don't meet him.

Maybe he will still do things under his hands. Lu Binglun couldn't help but sigh, his father is indeed old. His father's eyes were still on buying a few more rifles and buying a few more machine guns. Zhang Shusheng had already built an airplane.

Zhang Shusheng smiled, walked over and talked to the researchers on the spot and walked back, leaving them to record various data. Although this is the first test flight, the researchers still have to record every test flight diligently data. He smiled and said to Lu Yunyan, who was looking at the plane in a daze, "What do you want?"

"If only I could fly to the sky!" Lu Yunyan said blinking.

"Oh, I'll take you to fly with me in the future." Zhang Shusheng said holding her little hand, "Let's go, let's accompany your cousin to see this gift for your uncle."

This time the convoy came to a military barracks in the suburb of Lishuping. As soon as the convoy entered the barracks after inspection, a company of heavily armed soldiers arrived to guard it.

"Hold on, stand up, salute !!"

Under the leadership of the company commander, the soldiers quickly lined up, and then the lieutenant ran to Zhang Shusheng and shouted, "Please instruct me!"

"Stop it!" Zhang Shusheng said, changing his military salute.

"I did not expect that these ordinary troops under Shu Sheng were well equipped."

In fact, the security forces ’equipment is much better, but Lu polypropylene has some luck. He thinks that Zhang Shusheng is specially equipped to decorate the facade. As a result, the company ’s guards on both sides are actually equipped with neat Mauser rifles and bayonet swords. It bounced out, the military posture was majestic, and the colorful military uniform was dazzling at first glance, but when I looked at it, I felt that there was no deterrent.

However, as a soldier, Lu Penglun cares most about the eyes of every soldier, and it seems that there are demonstrating spirits in his eyes. It is a look of admiration, enthusiasm, and loyalty. When he was in Guangxi, he only saw it in the eyes of his father's most loyal subordinates, but these soldiers were just ordinary army under his future cousin.

Moreover, there is a place where his brother-in-law's army makes him feel very bloody. Every soldier can not find the lazy atmosphere of Guangxi Gui Army. Not to mention, just this repeated military salute, every meticulous action made him marvel, secretly saying that the requirements of these troops are very strict, and indeed the military majesty is actually trained.

There seemed to be a lot of things in the small bag of the soldier. Several of the officers even held a strange short-handed gun different from that of the security forces. Equipment, unexpectedly Zhang Shusheng was used to equip ordinary troops.

This whole company, from the soldier's point of view, Lu Penglun felt very sharp.

Zhang Shusheng: "Open the door to the warehouse!"

"Yes!" One of the orders that got the order quickly came forward, and slowly pushed the gate of the warehouse manager to open the double mechanical lock. "Oh ..." A loud warehouse appeared slowly in the sound of the gate. In front of everyone.

Inside the warehouse, a large wooden box like a hill was emblazoned with an eye-catching military logo. Lu Penglun just begun to look at it, and his heart beating, "This is ..."

A soldier came forward, picked up the crowbar, and cracked lightly, opened a large wooden box, and appeared in front of Lu polypropylene, a box full of brand new rifles, the smell of gun oil coming from the face, and even rushed He was slightly cyanotic.

"This is a little bit of my heart for the old man." Zhang Shusheng picked up a brand new Chinese rifle. Today's Chinese rifle is much stronger than the old Mauser. "This is a 3,000-Mauser improved Huaxia. The type of rifle is my expression of heartfelt promise. It can be loaded and transported away immediately, and my prospective niece also supports the old man to rectify the army. "

Lu Yunyan stood there dullly, two lines of tears dripped, and this guy suddenly gave such a big gift, which really touched her. My uncle will definitely agree with him.

The two brothers and sisters of Lu Binglun stayed in Lishuping for a whole week, until they contacted Guangxi and sent troops to meet at the Yunnan-Guangzhou junction. Back to Guangxi.

During this week, the two also suffered from major bleeding. They bought a lot of products from Lishuping and went back to www.ltnovel.com ~ especially things like the new gramophone that were still fashionable at the time, and they brought a lot. Lu Bingwen even bought several high-end fashions for his two sisters compared to his figure.

And Zhang Shusheng, although he gave 3,000 rifles to Father Lu Rongting, for him today, the military factory is already preparing to sell and export a large number of arms. The 3,000 rifles are only a small amount of money. Moreover, for Lu Rongting, he is not afraid of investing, so-called loss is much, and he will earn more in the future.

He also asked Lu Yunyan, Zhang Luo, to bring some special gifts to the two old men, but the girl paid for two boxes of penicillin, which is currently very scarce in China, and brought it back with her cousin. However, she did not allow Zhang Shusheng to spend money directly, but insisted on borrowing from him, saying that it was slowly returned after marriage, and she could not let Zhang Shusheng spend more ...

When Lu Binglun was leaving, he half-jokingly said a sentence: "Brother Shu Sheng, rest assured, you cousin, I'm sure. I'll wait for the day you sit in the southwest of the town !!"
