Chapter 395 Siberia, we are going back!

The wind brushed his face. Although he was wearing goggles and ear helmets, he could still feel the whistling sound in the auricle and drilled straight into his brain.

Although the grassland under my feet has begun to wither yellow, looking down from the sky, it is like a blue and yellow blanket covering the whole world. The mountains were going backwards, and the birds flapped their wings hard beside them, trying to catch up with this big partner they had never seen before.

Li Mo gently pulled the longitudinal rod, and the fuselage seemed to be held up by something. After the flap behind the wing was quickly opened under the drive of the transmission rod, the nose was suddenly pulled up and gradually straightened under the sudden increase in lift.

Beside him, two of the same double-winged war eagles also looked up at the same time, like three sharp arrows inserted into the sky!

In this scene, Du Dazhuang, who was standing on the ground holding a telescope, sweat on his backs and everyone's backs. The eagle's head on both sides of the nose and the circle under the wing also seemed to become ferocious. Everyone sweated and counted the emperor in his heart. If you are energetic, go to the draft girl! Didn't those old scholars make eight suggestions? Why do you want to learn to fly a plane? Isn't this a toss!

Although this new biplane has been finalized, the flight is not as comfortable as everyone thinks. At least in the cemetery of the Air Force's Secret Flight Club on the Chifeng Grassland, there are more than 20 Chinese warriors who have sacrificed their lives for the experiment.

In the sky, Emperor Li, who had just learned to fly a plane, had a lot of fun. Everyone was anxious and filled their foreheads. Finally, they gathered all their eyes on Adel, the president of Xinhua Aviation Research Institute and chief designer. The sharp edge seemed to poke the Frenchman out hundreds of holes to enjoy it.

Because if the old man hadn't come to report the good news, he said that the first plane was fixed, and the flight was stable, suitable for learning and reconnaissance, he would not have made Emperor Li suddenly come here to learn to learn to fly!

Finally, the red-painted biplane seemed to have played enough. Under the accompanying protection of the other two planes, it made a quick turn in the distance and aimed at the specially smooth grassland and slowly began to descend.

In the cockpit, Li Mo carefully jerked the plane. Taking off and landing were always the most dangerous stages of the flight. It was not until the wheel hit the grass, the fuselage suddenly sank and then lifted under the action of hydraulic pressure that he breathed a sigh of relief and turned off the engine switch.

With the help of the usual surname, the plane slowly glided through rows of open hangars, sliding in front of dozens of planes of the same model, and arrived at the cement apron that was already crowded with technical experts, pilots and officials.

"Mr. Adel, Zhuo Ru, how am I flying?" As Li Mo jumped off the plane, the cheers suddenly sounded. Even he couldn't help but be complacent and asked Adel and Liang Qichao, who was in front of him, with a smile.

"Great, Your Majesty, you are the most perfect and outstanding pilot I have ever seen. God, I can't believe it. This is your first solo flight!" Adel was not stingy. To be honest, he could not find anything wrong with the big boss and emperor who changed the flight laboratory into an aviation design institute, invested in the construction of a brand-new research institute, and also built two wind tunnels, and never refused his application for funding.

If he and other researchers only provide the brain, then Li Mo is the never-ending heart, infor the strong Ministry of Science and Technology to input fresh blood. It can be said that if you do experiments and scientific and technological research in Xinhua, then you just need to do research all the time. All the chores, including your family, will be arranged for you. This is the treatment that science and technology workers around the world can't get at present.

Emperor Li scratched his stomach. This Frenchman was quite good at talking. He smiled and handed his helmet and eyes to Da Zhuang and said with a smile, "Mr. Adel, thank you for your praise!"

"Congratulations, Mr. Adel, you and the aeronautical research institute you lead have designed a perfect machine." Li Mo blinked: "And I have another piece of good news for you. Do you remember our first flight a few years ago? Although I have to hide it for various reasons, now..."

Li Mo took a picture of the Xinhua's first-generation war eagle beside him, and suddenly shouted, "I'm going to announce the film of our first flight to the world in Shanghai, and I'm also going to show that plane for a flight. I want to tell the world that its designer is you, Adel and the designers you lead!"

"It's you who have a pair of wings for human beings!"

"In addition, I will recommend you to the newly established Royal Chinese Science Foundation (despising Nobel, Li Dashahao himself), because I think it's you! Open the sky for human beings and let their dreams fly freely!"

Adel was short of breath, and the designers were flushed. After a moment of depression, it seemed that the whole grassland was thundering. Hundreds of aviation experts and their student technicians cheered. Even those who gathered around and were willing to pay for their lives for the aviation industry, and flew again and again with courage and wisdom. After groping again and again, hundreds of seed pilots who became more and more brave were also cheered!

Liang Qichao was also scalded by the hot wind, but Li Mo, who seemed to be always optimistic and always sighed with demagogic words. He showed a wooden shelf four years ago and told the world the ability of Xinhua, but he also bought the hearts of tens of thousands of scientific and technological personnel at the same time!

This transaction is worth it!

"Zhuo Ru, I see you curl your lips." Emperor Li threatened.

"How can it be, Your Majesty, are you dazzled?" Lord Liang, who has been promoted to the Minister of Education, quickly said seriously, "Your Majesty, you just flew great!"

"Get out of here, don't flatter me!" Li Mo laughed, ended the little joke between the emperors and ministers, and asked, "Zhuo Ru, how are the things about the University of Technology, the University of Medicine, the University of Agriculture and the School of Technology?"

"It's already under preparation. The university is expected to be slower, but the first technical school can be opened by the end of the year at the latest."

"Ye-en, we need to do it quickly, and we have to do it well!" Li Mo nodded and pointed to the plane in the distance and said, "Our technical ability is still too poor, especially the gap of senior technical workers. I just said it was perfect. In fact, it is not only imperfect, but also far away from my dream. I began to think that it can seat at least two people, but now it seems unrealistic."

Liang Qichao also knew the current industrial defects and asked curiously, "What kind of plane is the emperor's dream?"

Li Mo narrowed his eyes and did not answer directly. He only said quietly, "Zhuo Ru, if I tell you that the future plane should be able to carry three or four hundred people at a time, and can fly from Yanjing to New York in the United States, do you believe it?"

"This..., how is this possible!" Looking at the neat rows of wooden shelves in the distance, Liang Qichao's eyes widened, and even if he had exhausted his imagination, he could not outline the picture in his mind.

"Nothing is impossible!" Li Mo laughed and said, "In fact, Adel and others have come up with a better design, but because of the delay of a new engine, it can't be realized, and the reason for the delay is not the design, but because the processing requirements of that kind of engine are very high, and the ability of our workers can't be achieved!"

Li Mo took a deep breath: "So, you, the Minister of Education, can't just focus on how to do things. Technology is the wings of the nation, excellent skilled workers are the cornerstone of the country, agriculture is the foundation of the country, and officials are just ordinary people who sort these things neatly!"

"And education is to cultivate scientists, writers, artists, technicians, agricultural technicians and other talents, but it's not just these! Because what you have to do is very hard, because you have to dare to smash the single-plank bridge that has lasted for thousands of years, lead more talents to other industries, teach and educate people. In addition to cultivating top talents for the country, you should also popularize the concept that "the profession is not noble and cheap!" Because only when 365 lines go hand in hand will the country have a new look!"

"You have a long way to go. Maybe you can't change it in your life, but your Ministry of Education must continue and implant this kind of thinking from generation to generation!"

Youyou's words seemed to penetrate the vast grassland in front of him. It was the first time for Liang Qichao to hear Li Mo explain the educational dream in his heart in such detail. The sentence "career is not noble and cheap" seemed to open a window in front of him, a window that could see a different sky.

Looking at Liang Qichao, he seemed to be a little distracted. Li Mo knew that he had planted a seed and could not do anything about it, because he could not change this kind of thing alone.

The squeaky brakes broke Liang Qichao's meditation. Seeing Chen Ping's footsteps coming in a hurry, he hurriedly avoided it for the time being, because at this moment, there was another more important thing.

"How long do you expect Russia to complete the preparations?" Sitting in the car, Li Mo looked through the documents brought by Chen Ping and asked.

"It depends on the time of completion of the Siberian railway." Chen Ping said, "According to the intelligence and the on-site observation of the night eagle sent, the railway has been paved to Hailan bubble, and it can be extended to Vladivostok and Twin Cities in half a year at most."

"From the perspective of European intelligence, Russia is stepping up the recruitment of soldiers, coupled with the time it takes to deliver these troops to the Far East. We expect Russia to declare war by August next year at the latest!"

"That's eleven months left?" Li Mo raised his head and his eyes flashed: "How's the Russian navy?"

"The warships purchased and built are basically in place, but the most important five Borodino-class battleships are estimated to be completed in another year. According to intelligence, the Borodino class was redesigned with reference to the Crown Prince at the beginning, which was aimed at our Arctic star. However, due to the service of the Duke-class, the Tsar believed that there was not enough firepower, so To help the French, two parallel 210mm guns were added between the chimneys in the middle of the hull, so that the displacement was also magnified by 1,000 tons. When firing on one side, they could have six main guns of more than 200mm.

In addition, Duan Fei's news, the fast-class second-class battleships you discussed with McKinson last time are very likely to fall into the hands of the Russians. In this way, Nicholas I basically has 28 capital ships, plus auxiliary cruisers, destroyers and other warships. He is the most It is possible to send us a fleet with a total of 60 or even 70 ships!"

"Hmm, it's a big handwriting!" Li Mo sneered and asked, "What about us?"

"The navy can basically catch up with the speed. The first two battleships can be launched for testing next month. Although the last two ships start half a year late, Tang Xiao's guarantee can be delivered in March next year. With the test time, it can completely catch up.

"The four heavy patrols can also be launched one after another next month. We are going to put all the sea test sites of battleships and heavy patrols in the Ogasawara Islands. We also plan to try to blockade the sea area, prohibit any ships from entering, and try to take them out in May. At that time, half of the six British battleships were built and could not be stopped. "."

"In the army, 15 infantry divisions and five cavalry divisions have all been formed and withdrawn to the country. Luzon, Borneo and Guam will be garrisoned by three marine divisions in cooperation with two National Guard divisions. Honolulu and Daxia will be in charge of the four divisions, the first and second divisions will be stationed in Hokkaido, and Shikoku Island will continue to be stationed by the Korean army and We are stationed together."

"The only problem with the army now is that the first division and the fourth division are changing their clothes and adapting. It is enough according to the time schedule, but it is hard to say whether it can form combat effectiveness."

Li Mo raised his head. He knew the change of the first division and the fourth divisions, and this was promoted by him. According to the plan, the two infantry divisions will first be adapted into semi-mechanized infantry divisions. Why is it semi-mechanized? Because he only has armored vehicles and trucks at present, although tracked combat vehicles have been proposed for a long time, problems such as engine and transmission are still being solved, and it is hard to say whether he can catch up.

So he made up his mind more than a year ago to use the current equipment to transform the two divisions to do experiments for full mechanization in the future. However, although trucks and cars are mature and can be mass-produced, the price is not cheap. In addition, the funds of the Prime Minister's Office were not completely relieved at that time, so the royal fund was also used. It was not until recently that the Prime Minister's Office took over and continued to provide the required funds.

This is a brand-new reform, but it is still unknown whether the two divisions can form combat effectiveness as soon as possible and whether they can bring out the new equipment. Moreover, the north is a cold zone, and winter will have a great impact on vehicles, so it remains to be seen whether they can play the expected effect.

The Air Force has jumped out of the stage little by little with the war eagles taking off behind them. Li Mo is not sure how much role they can play in this battle, so the army and navy are still the main force of this war!

"Do you think the Russian Congress will return Dili?" Li Mo closed the document and asked quietly.

"No, never!"

Chen Ping replied firmly, which made him take a deep breath. In fact, many people misunderstood the Russian [***] team because of the poor performance of the Russian fleet in history, believing that Russia was scum and vulnerable.

But in fact, Russia is not easy to fight. With the tenacity of the army in history, it still paid a huge price. The later generation was known as the god of the army. At this moment, Mr. Dashanyan, who was waiting to die in a prison in Xinhua, also hit his head and shed blood and left the bodies of nearly ten thousand of the most elite soldiers, if not Akashi Genjiro's genius handwriting, maybe it's really hard to say who will win or lose.

And this nation has a kind of natural rudeness or even barbarism. Maybe they are honest farmers before they become soldiers. Maybe they dare not look up in the face of roaring bullets, but if they notice that you are threatening their lives, they will immediately turn into one The head is a terrible brown bear, desperate to rush over and fight with you!

This is Russia's surname. In later generations, during the Cold War, there were no less than a hundred dangerous games in the United States. In the face of more advanced American [***] ships, didn't they just crash? In the face of the reconnaissance aircraft, directly use the tail of the fighter to play the game of disemboweling! In the face of the dangerous underwater environment, he rolled up his sleeves to chase the collision.

They never consider the consequences, even if the nuclear pointer is about to return to zero, they still crack their teeth!

Don't think that this is something that the Red Soviet Union can do. Historically, the Russian nation has done a lot of things. Otherwise, with Russia's national strength, why do Britain, France, Germany and other countries have a headache when they see it?

Because this is a barbaric nation that prefers to speak with fists, Nicholas II is cruel and an idiot, but after he ordered the war, there were millions of soldiers with cold weapons rushing to the border without rifles! They may be forced or forcibly pulled by the strong men, but they did not collapse with one touch. Instead, many people spontaneously charged into the bullet pile with blood and body!

This is Russia!

A country that is extremely stubborn, savage and rude, which gives the whole Europe a headache and is not willing to provoke!

To deal with such a person, you can only be more barbaric and tougher. You can beat him face to face, make them lose their ability to fight back, and brand the strength and invincibility deeply into the depths of their souls.

This is the first real national war in Xinhua's history. To put it bluntly, Master Li was a warlord. If he lost, he could come back. It was not until the unification of the South that he fought with the British navy, but it was just a fight.

But this time it is different. This is a confrontation between the two countries and an inevitable consequence of geopolitical conflicts. This country with a ten thousand miles of border with Xinhua, whether the Tsar is in power or not, will bring people a great sense of oppression. At this time, he can understand why Taizu was so nervous after breaking off diplomatic relations with the Soviet Union, and even did not hesitate to The handshake of American imperialism in his mouth was to resist the cold current from the north.

This border is so long that no army can do everything. Even in the era of satellite radar flying all over the world, it is also troublesome. If the north hadn't contained too many forces of the Republic, why couldn't it break through a small first island chain?

Now, what I have to face is this long border that has plagued the Chinese nation for hundreds of years!

This is a good era. The two super empires of later generations have not taken shape. Whether it is the United States, which is rich in resources and has super manufacturing capabilities, or Russia, which has a large land and abundant resources, has many rough and barbaric soldiers, is still second-class citizens of the world!

But this is also a bad era, because Xinhua's power is still too weak, so there is no doubt that this is a war that can be increased to gamble with the national fortune.

Thinking of this, Li Mo took a deep breath, quickly closed the document and asked, "What are you going to do?"

"Since he likes Dili, stay well." Chen Ping seemed to know that Li Mo would ask this question. He raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said with a smile, "I won't let him in, but I won't disturb him, because he will witness a naval battle of the century there!"

"It's up to you."

Li Mo instantly understood Chen Ping's thoughts and said with a smile, "I'll give you an extra task. Help me choose 3,000 people from the army and university for Xue Muhua as soon as possible. It's time for his air force to train some people!"

"Yes."

As soon as Chen Ping answered, Li Mo stuffed the document back to him, curled up, and looked at the war eagle passing through the window from time to time, as if he saw the dragon taking off. After a long time, he seemed to have made up his mind. He turned his head and flashed in the clear black pupils.

"Tell Mr. Li to hold a press conference immediately and issue a letter to the national statement."

"Siberia, we're going back!" ......
