    (Thanks to the book friend who has a bit of a bad eye for his monthly ticket!)

    "Feiyu, how many J-1 fighter jets can you produce every month now?" Wang Yuze asked.  Although the Air Force has just started, it will not be a main force in future wars.  Therefore, Wang Yuze attaches great importance to it.

    "Your Majesty, the aircraft manufacturing plant has just been built. Currently it can only produce six J-1 fighter jets per month! After the production capacity is expanded, it should be able to reach thirty aircraft per month!" Air Force Commander Major General Long Feiyu replied.

    "The output is a bit low, but it can still be used! In addition, the aircraft manufacturing plant is not only considered to be built in Beijing, but also in cities such as Chengdu and Wuhan. Believe me, the future Air Force will definitely be a decisive service on the battlefield.  , the Imperial Air Force will enter an era of rapid development from now on!" Wang Yuze said solemnly.

    "Yes, Your Majesty! I have always believed that there will be such a day!" Long Feiyu said.  Compared with the army and navy, the air force is undoubtedly the weakest service.  However, he received the greatest attention from Wang Yuze, which moved Long Feiyu very much.

    "Otto? Lilienthal, thank you for designing the J-1 fighter. You can apply for a patent. In the future, every time we produce a J-1 fighter, we will pay you a certain patent fee. When we start large-scale equipment  When you are in the Air Force, you will become a rich man!" Wang Yuze said with a smile.  For Otto?  Of course he would try every means to retain a talent like Lilienthal.

    "Your Majesty, thank you for your generosity. However, I am willing to dedicate this patent to you and your army. My lifelong dream is to design an aircraft that can fly freely into the sky. It is with your support that I can  Today. I have now become a Chinese national and am still a count of the Empire. My salary and the stipend of the title can already make me live very well. It is useless to ask for more money. I know that the Empire is now  We are facing a huge threat and this is when we need money!" Otto?  Lilienthal said.

    "Otto? Lilienthal, thank you very much!" Wang Yuze could only say this.

    "Feiyu, although the J-1 fighter has been developed. But what I want to say is that there are still big flaws in its performance. The range is too short, the speed is too low, and the ceiling is not high enough. This makes the J-1 fighter's performance on the battlefield  The effect will not be too obvious. The Imperial Air Force needs fighter jets with longer range and faster speed. I hope you can continue your efforts and develop more powerful fighter jets for the Empire!" Wang Yuze said.

    "Yes, Your Majesty!" Long Feiyu and Otto?  Lilienthal replied.

    "In addition, in addition to fighter jets, we also need other aircraft, such as trainer aircraft, to train more pilots for us. The trainer aircraft can be designed in a two-seat mode, which is conducive to the training of students. In addition, we also need specialized  A bomber used for ground attack. The bomber needs to have a longer range and a larger bomb load, which requires higher power. Of course, if one engine cannot meet the requirements, dual engines can be considered. Transport aircraft are also needed, with  It can transport troops and various strategic materials over long distances at high speed. These are the tasks that the Air Force and the Aircraft Research Institute need to pay attention to in the next stage!" Wang Yuze said.

    "Yes, Your Majesty!" Long Feiyu replied.

    "Your Majesty the Emperor, you are really a genius. Your ideas are really great and have given me a lot of inspiration. I can't wait to go into battle right now to study the aircraft you need now!" Otto?  Lilienthal said excitedly.

    "Haha, don't worry, we have plenty of time!" Wang Yuze said with a smile.  Otto?  Lilienthal, a German who originally died while experimenting with gliders, has now exerted tremendous power for China's aviation industry.

    "Your Majesty, how many J-1 fighter jets do we have?" Long Feiyu asked.  He knew that Wang Yuze was still somewhat dissatisfied with the performance of the J-1 fighter jet.  This kind of fighter jet will definitely not be equipped on a large scale.  At most, only part of it will be purchased to train troops.

    "Produce forty J-1 fighter jets and equip a fighter brigade!" Wang Yuze said.  Regarding the organization of the Air Force, Wang Yuze planned to adopt the organization of the German Air Force in the early World War II, which was divided into two-aircraft formations, four-aircraft formations (squads), squadrons, groups and wings.

    A two-plane formation is the smallest combat unit, consisting of a lead aircraft and a wingman.  During combat cruise, the two aircraft are separated by about 200 yards, with the wingman behind, so that the lead aircraft can concentrate on searching without worrying about the visual blind spot behind it.  In combat, the wingman is responsible for covering behind the lead aircraft when it attacks.

    A four-plane formation (squad) consists of two two-plane formations. The two two-plane formations are arranged one behind the other in the air, somewhat similar to the arrangement of four human fingers (index finger, middle finger, ring finger, and tail finger).  Two-plane formation and four-plane formation are both the most basic.Technical formation requires its commanders to have superb skills and rich experience.

    A squadron is generally composed of three four-aircraft formations with 12 aircraft. It is the lowest level of tactical organization. The captain is usually a captain and is mainly responsible for secondary tasks such as technology and communication.  Squadron: It has 3 "four-plane formations" or 6 "two-plane formations", usually equipped with 12 aircraft, with 20-25 pilots and 160 and 160 ground crew members.

    The group is the basic tactical organization of the Air Force. It was initially composed of 3 squadrons and 1 group headquarters. Including the 4 aircraft directly under the group headquarters, there are a total of 40 aircraft.  Normally, each group has its own airport.  Occasionally individual squadrons would be temporarily separated from the group due to assignments or refits.  The group leader is usually served by a major, under whom are an adjutant, a technician and a medical officer.  The group is the most important tactical organization of the Air Force. Generally, the group is the basic unit for troop mobilization. It has a group headquarters and 3-4 squadrons, about 40 aircraft and 500 personnel.

    The wing is the largest tactical organization of the Air Force. It originally consisted of 3 groups and 1 headquarters, with 124 aircraft.

    "Yes, Your Majesty! The Air Force will definitely complete the design of newer fighter aircraft as soon as possible!" Long Feiyu assured.  He knew that if the Air Force wanted to develop into a powerful service like the Army and Navy, it would have to install more powerful fighters.  For example, the new fighter jets, bombers, transport aircraft, etc. mentioned by Wang Yuze before.

    "Fighters are just one part, and pilots are the most important. The Air Force can establish its own aviation school to train pilots and other talents for the Air Force. In addition, it can also open aviation clubs in various provinces to develop more aviation hobbies.  In this way, during wartime, these aviation enthusiasts can fly fighter aircraft to participate in battles after a short training. For the Air Force, it can also save a lot of money." Wang Yuze said.  He remembered that during the Second World War, the United States lost a large number of aircraft and pilots. However, with the strong industrial strength of the United States, aircraft could be quickly replenished, and pilots could also be replenished through aviation clubs. In contrast, Japan's lost aircraft and pilots  There were more and more pilots, and they were finally dragged to death.

    Long Feiyu¡¯s eyes couldn¡¯t help but light up.  Obviously, Wang Yuze's proposal made him feel enlightened.

    Afterwards, Wang Yuze and several important military officials visited the J-1 fighter jet¡¯s flight performance.  The combat performance of the J-1 has won rounds of applause from everyone.

    "Your Majesty, when I came to see the Air Force's test aircraft last year, I didn't expect that the aircraft would develop so quickly! With a speed of 120 kilometers per hour and a range of 180 kilometers, it is surprising that it can attack targets 70 or 80 kilometers away.  Ah! Heavy machine guns and aerial bombs can undoubtedly cause great damage to enemy troops without fortifications in the wild!" Xiong Wu said excitedly.  He knew that as the Air Force became more powerful, perhaps a new Air Force Department would be established.

    "Yes! With the advancement of science and technology, the changes in warfare are also changing with each passing day. Only by always being at the leading level in the world can we maintain the strength and longevity of the empire!" Wang Yuze said.  There is no doubt that the Chinese Air Force is already far ahead of other countries in the world in terms of air force development.  It is almost impossible for them to catch up with China.  China, which has gained air supremacy, is almost in an invincible position.

    "Your Majesty, we can send people to build a large number of airports on the front line. In this case, when we go to war with the Russians, these fighter jets will be able to come in handy!" Cai Yun said.

    Wang Yuze nodded, and then said: "However, because the performance of current fighter planes is still relatively poor, and there are no specialized ground attack bombers, their role in the land battlefield is very limited, and they can only be used as a new type of weapon.  That's it. Unless more advanced fighters and bombers are developed in the future, the current battlefield shape will be completely changed. Think about it! Before the infantry attack, overwhelming bombers dropped bombs on the enemy's heads, and the fighter jets continued to dive.  Scanning, this will not only cause huge casualties to the enemy, but also have an unstoppable impact on morale. When the time comes, it will be even easier for the infantry to launch an attack!"

    "Your Majesty, in this case, we must speed up the development of the air force!" Minister of National Defense Jiang Xingguo also said enthusiastically.  These important military ministers all want to see the empire's military strength grow stronger.  Now the empire is facing tremendous pressure. Any weapon that can enhance the power of the empire is what they hope to equip their troops.

    "This cannot be rushed! I believe that the Air Force Commander is more anxious than you. Without the introduction of newer fighter aircraft, the Air Force cannot develop and grow. I believe that it will not be long before the Air Force will bring us bigger surprises."  Yes!" Wang Yuze said with a smile.
