Chapter 235 Transport Aircraft Squadron 1
Lu Tianlong was even more confused now and looked at Wang Meng blankly.
"Chief of Staff, what on earth do you mean? I'm a little confused now."
"We are going to form a transport plane brigade, with the latest model of transport planes!"
Lu Tianlong is feeling a little dizzy now. Over the past few months, the aviation division's planes have been flying like kites, one after another.
If we add transport aircraft, the aircraft models will basically be complete.
It can fully meet the transportation tasks.
"Chief of Staff, how many?"
"Thirty planes! Each plane can carry 50 fighters. Thirty planes can transport 1500 fighters at a time, which is basically enough for a small-scale battle!"
Lu Tianlong was even more confused now. He didn't expect that the chief of staff would make such a big move.
In the past, the soldiers of the independent column all walked on their own two legs.
Later, with the advent of armored divisions, we could ride in armored vehicles and trucks and fight battles easily.
Next, you can unlock a new delivery method: air transport!
"Captain Lu, what are you standing there for? Let me ask you, can the pilots flying the trainer aircraft now start the modification training immediately?"
Lu Tianlong immediately put his legs together and saluted.
"Chief of Staff, don't worry, we will ensure that we can form combat effectiveness in three months!"
"Commander Lu, if safety can be guaranteed, I hope to be able to form combat effectiveness within two months! The combat missions ahead are very heavy! Fuel can be made at will, and if there is anything you need me to solve, please let me know!"
"Yes!"
"In one hour, go to the field airport and drive the plane back!"
Wang Meng immediately drove to the field airport alone, and like magic, he spent 3000 points to redeem 30 C-54 Skymaster transport aircraft.
Wang Meng left the field airport and met Lin Shubing again.
Currently, each major of the Aviation College of Pingshun University only enrolls 200 students. Due to the long training period, the number cannot meet the needs of the growing fleet.
Therefore, Wang Meng discussed with Lin Shubing that they must increase the number of students admitted, start classes every half a year, and enroll at least 300 people in each batch.
Students who are eliminated from the flight technology major will be transferred to navigation, pilotage and other majors.
In this way, in one year at the fastest and two years at the slowest, a new group of pilots will be trained to join each fleet.
Wang Meng was sitting in the military fortress command center when a telegram that had been passed around many times was handed to him.
"Wang, we need 1000 bottles, and we'll send them to Mao Hang at Kunming Airport!"
When Wang Meng saw that this was Nicholas's telegram, he immediately reported it to Li Yunlong, then wrote a letter and handed it to the guard.
The guards were asked to carry 1000 bottles of penicillin from the penicillin factory and deliver them to Pingshun Airport.
"Hello, is this Lu Tianlong? I just sent 1000 bottles of penicillin to your Pingshun Airport. You should immediately have the bomber squadron conduct a long-range bombing drill and deliver the penicillin to a man named Mao Hang at Kunming Airport! Don't worry about anything else!"
"Yes!"
In less than half an hour, four B-17 bombers, escorted by twelve F6F Hellcat fighters, flew towards Kunming.
Wang Meng still felt a little regretful as he listened to the roar of the plane.
"If the transport planes have formed combat capability now, then not to mention 1000 bottles of penicillin, even bottles can be easily delivered to Kunming!"
At this time, Huang Zhiqian, the 28-year-old director of the Aircraft Research Institute, followed Lin Shubing and walked in with high spirits.
"Lao Wang, we have successfully copied a training aircraft!"
After receiving training at the Aviation Machinery School in 1937, Huang Zhiqian worked in aircraft manufacturing plants in Kunming, Myanmar, Sichuan and other places, where he was responsible for the repair of Hawk models as well as I-15 and I-16 models, and accumulated rich maintenance experience.
Not long after the Pingshun Academy of Sciences Aircraft Research Institute was established, he moved from Sichuan to Pingshun to serve his country through aviation.
On the first day of the establishment of the Aircraft Research Institute, Huang Zhiqian received a task, which was to realize the self-production of the current aviation division's aircraft!
Finally, on this day, the first trainer aircraft successfully completed its maiden flight.
"Congratulations to you and to us! Next, you must continue to overcome difficulties and strive to achieve mass production of fighter jets in March next year and mass production of bomber fighters in June!"
Huang Zhiqian, who had just been full of energy and vigor, now looked embarrassed and stammered.
"What's wrong? If you have any difficulties, please raise them!"
"Chief of Staff, the machine tools at the Mechanical Engineering Institute are now running almost non-stop, so our Aircraft Research Institute doesn't have much time left. Moreover, some equipment needs to be imported!"
"How can this be called a problem? As far as I know, the engineering troops have already built a lot of empty factories as backup. You have experience, so go pick a few. I will prepare 100 machine tools of various types for you tomorrow morning!"
Huang Zhiqian showed an incredible expression. A machine tool is such a precious thing, it is not easy to get it.
"Chief of Staff, the precision of the machine tools used in the aircraft must be very high. They must be consistent with the precision of the Mechanical Research Institute. They cannot be replaced by some old machine tools!"
"Oh, don't worry, it's exactly the same as the machine tools at the Mechanical Research Institute! Also, please give me a list of the imported equipment you want. I'll get it to you in two months at the latest!"
Huang Zhijun was skeptical, but he still chose to believe it.
Early the next morning, Wang Meng spent 100 points to exchange for machine tools in the factory selected by Huang Zhiqian.
Huang Zhiqian opened the door and saw various machine tools placed together in different categories, filling the entire factory.
"Chief of Staff, is this the machine tool we got?"
Huang Zhiqian excitedly touched the machine tool that was shining with metallic light, and couldn't help but put his face close to it to feel the coolness of the metal.
“This feeling is so comfortable!”
Wang Meng looked at Huang Zhiqian who was like a "pervert" and stopped disturbing him. Instead, he went to the Mechanical Engineering Institute, Automobile Research Institute, and Gun Factory and added 100, 50, and 40 machine tools respectively.
Wang Meng looked at the remaining [ ] points in the handheld terminal and felt a little emotional.
These points are hard to earn, but they are really easy to spend.
Fortunately, now that the international communication lines have been opened, we have a "comprador" Mr. Nicholas in Country M, so some equipment that can be purchased can be purchased from the other side of the ocean!
Through secret channels, Wang Meng sent the list of equipment needed for the aircraft research institute to Nicholas, and asked him to speed up.
"Old nun, if you can order more than 5,000 bottles, I will give you a discount! 20% off!"
Nicholas, who was far away on the other side of the ocean, became furious when he saw the news about Wang Meng.
"God! Everyone only has one chance to get rich in their lifetime. Please bless me with everything going well!"
He developed his own downlines in Europe, America and even Southeast Asia, and worked at full capacity, distributing all the targets that were about to be achieved, and then he went about arranging the list of goods given by Wang Meng himself.
After all, compared to the distant God, Wang Meng is his God of Wealth.
"Oh, what does he want this thing for? Forget it, never mind!"
