With someone to chat with about interesting topics, Zhu Bin simply abandoned the boring drawing work and thought of finding an opportunity to continue letting the robot do the work for him, while the two young pilots bragged and talked about everything.

Robert Short is 27 years old this year. After retiring from the Army Air Corps, he joined Boeing the year before last. He came to China this time to promote the 218 destroyer. He had just arrived in Shanghai just in time for the war between China and Japan. As a heroic pilot, he was worried that he would not have a chance.

Let’s show off, whether it’s your own abilities or the performance of the aircraft. After being hastily assembled, the two fighter planes took off from Hongkou Airport shortly after they ran into a Japanese plane that took off from the Grand Textile Factory to Suzhou for reconnaissance and bombing, and they had a fight.

Afterwards, five Japanese planes were seriously injured and fled in a hurry, while the two of them landed safely with minor damage.

Gonglang is an interesting kid. He is of mixed Chinese and American descent. He liked to play with machinery since he was a child. At the age of fourteen, when his father who was spraying medicine on the farm wasn't paying attention, he climbed onto a biplane and stumbled into the sky. Then he started tossing around in the sky.

long time,

It has been five years now. He originally wanted to join the army, but he was severely discriminated against because of his mixed-race status. The farm owner of his father was bankrupted by the sudden Great Depression, so he sold iron and took out a loan to raise money to buy this farm.

He flew a plane with the intention of taking advantage of the Sino-Japanese conflict to join the army. On the one hand, he could fulfill Kyōro's wish, and on the other hand, he could earn a high salary to support his family, and by the way, he could get promoted and make a fortune.

After hearing this, Zhu Bin couldn't help but give a thumbs up in admiration. This old man is so talented! His ideas for co-writing are almost the same as his own!

With nothing to do, Zhu Bin began to teach the two men various air combat skills. He, a space junk guy, has rich experience in outer space combat, and his activities in the atmosphere are limited to theory. However, he has countless simulated driving combat experience, so what?

It sounded like a set of actions, coordination, tactics, etc. The two of them were stunned for a while, but they also gained a lot! But there are some things that they don’t understand, such as radar, radio, and air.

I haven’t heard of early warning command or anything like that!

When faced with these questions, Zhu Bin hurriedly hesitated, saying that this was a secret research and development project of the Naval Technology Research Institute, and it would take some time for the product to be released. For the time being, it was just talk on paper. The two of them rolled their eyes again. This man is so good at bragging.

?

Anyway, we got along very happily. By noon on February 20, the war in Shanghai broke out again with fierce fighting. The two sides once again increased their troops and the total strength exceeded 100,000. The battlefield stretched from Zhabei to Wusong, and the navy, land and air forces mobilized together.

, the fight was so dark! On the Chinese side, the Fifth Army, the Nineteenth Route Army, and the Tax Police Corps risked their lives to resist, and all of Ueda Kenkichi's great plans were stillborn, and they could not succeed!

And Liu Banxia also escorted the truck to Jiading and delivered all the supplies that Zhu Bin asked for - by the way, this guy has been numbed by the ghosts and ghosts in the container, so he can just follow the orders no matter what.

.

After everything was ready, Zhu Bin rolled up his sleeves and went into battle in person. He dismantled Gong Lang's plane to pieces. The two people's faces twitched and their bodies hurt! If you can't pretend, Gong Lang

Lang could only stay and rely on Zhu Bin to make ends meet.

Zhu Bin couldn't let these aborigines underestimate him. As a senior garbage man, refurbishing old goods is a basic skill. I didn't see that the garbage cargo ship of the factory with more than 200 meters was designed by him personally and traded out of the garbage mountain.

Are they assembled from parts? With such great ability, it’s easy to modify an airplane!

He didn't care about the movement of the landing gear and the like. The engine cover needed to be extended and the main shaft was temporarily difficult to do. He only installed a set of turbochargers to increase the power from the original 450 horsepower to a peak of 600 horsepower. The flight speed was

From the standard 253 kilometers per hour to 310 kilometers per hour, the payload is increased by 20%. The problem is that the original organism mechanism will tremble when flying at full speed, and it may disintegrate after a long time!

Another change is the flight seat. After being removed from the fuselage, a mechanical explosive bolt and a gunpowder directional ejection device were added to the bottom, plus a bulletproof titanium alloy plate. Bulletproof plates were also added to several defense points around the cabin, which increased the weight.

It weighs tens of kilograms, but it does not affect the overall performance.

Zhu Bin secretly complained while changing: "The price of these titanium alloy plates alone is more expensive than an airplane!" However, he didn't care much.

Another major change is the two Browning M1919 heavy machine guns in front of the cockpit (the previous article is incorrect, they are not on the wings), and the ammunition load has been increased from the original 500 rounds to 1,000 rounds. Originally, Zhu Bin wanted to get them

It was made into two 12.7mm big ones. After much consideration, I felt that the changes were too big and detrimental to the overall stability, so I had to give up.

In addition, each of them was given a bulletproof vest, parachute bag, etc. Zhu Bin strongly recommended that the two of them reluctantly carry it. But to be honest, in high-speed actions, can Short, who has no ejection device, be able to jump out?

Still a problem.

On February 21st, the aircraft was finally refitted and debugged. Zhu Bin drove it up to the sky for an hour to make sure there was no problem. In the afternoon, the two of them obeyed orders from Nanjing, reluctantly said goodbye to Zhu Bin and flew back.

"Oh my! What a fulfilling and joyful day!"

Watching the two fighter planes swinging their wings and flying into the sky, Zhu Bin stretched out with satisfaction. He turned around and saw Yu Baoguo, who had been busy for the past few days without touching the ground.

Unlike Zhu Bin, who was a picky man, after Yu Baoguo and others arrived in Jiading, they still controlled the troops according to the strictest wartime discipline and arranged every task carefully and thoughtfully. The main combat force of more than 200 people plus dozens of

Although there is no logistics, this small town full of cultural atmosphere and heritage beauty is well organized, and various air defense, anti-artillery, and anti-attack fortifications are constructed properly and meticulously.

It is precisely because of this that Zhu Bin has the opportunity to be lazy and do what he likes to do. However, Zhu Bin's unobstructed words leaked some information, which caused quite a stir among the upper-level officers. After hearing this, Yu Baoguo

After careful consideration, I finally decided to ask for clarification.

"Are you really planning to join the navy? Are you abandoning the volunteers?" Yu Baoguo sat across from Zhu Bin seriously, staring into his eyes. After spending many days together, he was basically familiar with this guy's style and expression.

.

Zhu Bin scratched his head with short hair, and sighed softly as if he had a headache: "It's not that I don't care, it's that I can't control it. It is the best possibility to save most of the people and return them to the Navy Department. Don't even think about the Army. Nineteen

Lu Jun has offended too many people, and anyone associated with them cannot be saved."

Yu Baoguo lowered his eyes and was silent for a moment, then said gloomily: "It's not easy to do something in the country. It's not as simple as the German Wehrmacht. I'm worried that things will change out of control after you leave."

The Volunteer Army is what it is today because of the hard work of many of them. It was disbanded so quickly that no one felt comfortable.

Zhu Bin nodded, gently pounded the table and said: "So, you have to stay and help Captain Wang Pingnan keep an eye on it. Every shot and bullet in the volunteer army, and every piece of equipment must not be leaked out. If you want to take advantage of us, just dream! Wait.

When I come back from the United States, we’ll do something big!”

"Okay! I believe you!" Yu Baoguo didn't ask any more questions, agreed flatly, and turned around to go out.

"Damn it!" Zhu Bin's good mood for two days was ruined. He gritted his teeth and punched the tabletop, cracking it in half. He thought bitterly in his heart, "Just wait, I will never suffer this again."

It’s at the mercy of the bastard politicians!”

On February 22, the sky was gloomy and dark clouds were covering the area south of the Yangtze River. Eight fighter planes of the air force stationed in Nanjing and two new planes, Short and Gonglang, took off together and rushed to the Songhu battlefield to support the war. Unexpectedly, all the air force fighters on the way mysteriously

The "Trek" disappeared without a trace. When Short and Gonglang flew to the southeast of Suzhou, they bumped into six Japanese fighter planes!

The two helpless people behind them did not hesitate, and activated their fighter planes to pounce on Rijin, who was lower than themselves!
Chapter completed!
