Chapter 1736 There is a solution

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Qin Baoshan was also frowning, of course he knew that doing so would be detrimental to Chu Yunfei.  But what can they do?  The matter has reached this level, then Chu Yunfei can only ask for blessings, and there is nothing he can do.

    At this moment, suddenly, another telegram was sent.

    "Report, the Americans have contacted us, and a new batch of bomber units will arrive in an hour. I hope we are ready to meet them."

    After the last bombing, the US bomber force was very excited.  So after a few days of rest this time, the second batch of bomber units came again.  Although Chu Yunfei's base had not yet been established, and even Chu Yunfei was surrounded by little devils, this did not disturb the attack plan of the American bomber troops.  When he heard the news, Qin Baoshan immediately thought of something. He said to Zhao Gang: "There is a solution. Now that Chu Yunfei is in a desperate situation, it is essentially because of doing things for the United States. Since it is an American matter, then  This rescue also allowed the Americans to help."

    Chu Yunfei was regarded as a key target by the little devil because the little devil discovered that there was an aviation base in Chu Yunfei's defense zone.  The little devil thought that the American bomber took off from Chu Yunfei's station, so of course he was going to die.  Just do it now.  Then Yu Yunfei can be saved.

    Although Zhao Gang didn't know what Qin Baoshan was going to do at this time, as long as Qin Baoshan said there was a way, then there must be a way.  Zhao Gang nodded: "No matter who makes the move, as long as it can help Chu Yunfei, that's fine."

    When Qin Baoshan arrived at the airport, it was already dark, and bombers were preparing to land here.  Since Chu Yunfei was separated by hundreds of miles, the little devil didn't realize that another bombing operation by the United States was about to start.

    When the b-25 bomber landed and slid skilfully to the side apron, Qin Baoshan was already waiting there.  He looked at the old acquaintance who got off the plane.  This bombing was again led by Major Cromlin.  He seems to have a bombing addiction.  When he got down, Major Kromlin was very happy to see Qin Baoshan here.

    "My old friend, it's a pleasure to see you. Please refuel our plane immediately and attach bombs. We will fly to the Japanese territory to bomb before dawn tomorrow."

    "Of course there is no problem, we will do a good job in all support work." Qin Baoshan said: "My old friend, how is your research on aerial refueling tactics?"

    At the beginning, Qin Baoshan proposed two methods.  One of the ways is to use the bomber base in Shanxi as a springboard to let American bombers fly to Japan's mainland.  Another way is to refuel in the air.

    In fact, there are many problems with the way of aerial refueling. For example, the current American B-25 bomber does not have a lot of bombs. If it is necessary to refuel in the air, it is estimated that two bombers will carry fuel to refuel the third bomber.  Only in this way can the third bomber fly to the Japanese mainland.  Of course, if they converted their b-17 bombers into tankers, they could provide fuel to several b-25 bombers at the same time.  How to modify the aerial refueling aircraft is one problem, and another question is whether this kind of aerial refueling technology has matured.  After all, for a long time, no one has studied this technology at all.  Qin Baoshan put forward an idea, and the Americans solved it through practice.  I just don't know how long it will take to find out.

    Hearing Qin Baoshan's question at this time, Major Cromlin was very happy, and said to Qin Baoshan: "Major Doolittle has carried out many test flight missions. At the beginning, it was a bit difficult, but later he mastered the trick.  The success rate of the aircraft has been greatly improved. Now the research on night air refueling technology is underway, and a group of pilots are being trained at the same time. In another one or two months, this bombing method should be able to be put into actual combat. We transformed the b17 bomber into a special  aerial tanker."

    Speaking of American strategic bombers, of course the first thing that comes to mind is the b-29 bomber.  This four-engine bomber is the main strategic bombing force of the United States, and it was also used to drop atomic bombs later.  But at present, this kind of aircraft is still in the final test flight stage, and it cannot be put into use at all.  In addition to the b-29, the United States also has a special strategic bomber, the b-1717.  This bomber is also a large aircraft with four engines.  But it is very strange that the range of this bomber is not very far.  In a lot of technical information.  It is a bit strange to write that this kind of bomber has a maximum range of only two to three thousand kilometers.  Although the maximum range is not very far, this bomber can carry a large number of bombs.  The load capacity is very large, which can be regarded as making up for the shortcomings of the range, so it should be the most suitable to use this kind of bomber to transform into an aerial refueling aircraft.  (Ordinarily, the voyage is not enough to carry more fuel, and the largeIf you can't reduce the amount of ammunition loaded, just load more fuel. I don't know what the technical reason is for the b-17's short legs.  )

    Qin Baoshan touched his nose, looked around, and said: "It seems that our airport here will have to be widened in the future. If we want to let that kind of plane land, we should need a bigger runway."

    If this bomber-modified tanker takes off with the bomber group, flies to Shanxi, and waits until the fuel of the b-25 bomber is exhausted before refueling in the air, then the fuel consumption of the b-17 bomber will be almost the same  .  So the most suitable way is to arrange the tanker converted from the b-17 bomber to yourself.  When the bombers from Chongqing came over, the b-17 tanker took off to provide fuel for those bombers.  It is definitely the most convenient to wait until the supply is finished before falling down.

    In the future, the base here of the Eighth Route Army will be easier, as long as the operation of the air tanker is satisfied.  The refueling is carried out in the sky, which saves more time. Only a few who fail to refuel will land on the base here.  If the scheduling is appropriate, it is estimated that there can be a large fleet of hundreds of aircraft to bomb the Japanese mainland.  Although I can't personally follow the bombing, but thinking about contributing to the bombing of the Japanese mainland, it is also an achievement.

    Of course, Qin Baoshan's main purpose is not for this matter.  He said to Major Cromlin: "There have been some unexpected situations here. I wonder if you can keep two bombers. Of course, it won't be wasted. You can bomb the Japanese devils here." (Remember the website URL:  www.hlnovel.com
