Chapter 1734, Flying Dragon Riding Face(2/4)
The main reason is the lack of aviation gasoline. This thing is so expensive.
Especially for Kunming Airport, which is located inland, it is difficult to transport airline gasoline.
what to do?
Zhang Yong’s arrangement was to deliver goods from Dianchi Lake.
It is also the fastest water transportation. Any ship can deliver dozens of barrels of fuel.
The distance from Dianchi Lake to the airport is not far. Trucks can be transported. Of course, trucks need to find another way. The system does not provide it.
The problem is that the Dian Army does not have many trucks. In the whole Kunming, all the trucks may be less than 30.
It's so scarce.
After all, it is a local warlord and has limited resources.
Money is used to buy weapons and ammunition.
have no choice……
In the end, I have to pay for it myself.
Open the purchase mall in disappointment.
It was unexpectedly discovered that the prices of American-made trucks have fallen rapidly.
It used to be 3,000 US dollars per vehicle, but now it only costs 1,800 US dollars. It seems that the production capacity of the US imperial examination is gradually being released.
With the invasion of Poland, Poland quickly perished. Both Britain and France were preparing for war. The requirements for logistics transportation increased greatly. A large number of trucks were needed.
Their own production capacity cannot meet their needs, so they are imported from outside.
The world's largest truck empire is the United States. When production capacity increases, the scale effect will naturally reduce costs.
As the war further expands, truck prices will continue to fall.
Anyway, this is how the system is adjusted.
Next year, you may be able to buy more and cheaper trucks.
but……
That's all my little money!
Weapons and ammunition don’t cost money. But it’s just that the truck needs it. How can it be...
Finally, I decided to buy twenty American-made trucks. It cost $36,000.
I feel heartbroken.
But it's really not OK not to buy it.
Hopefully I can get my money back in the future.
"Here you come."
Looking up, I saw the formation of BA-65 fighter jets.
They appear above Wujiaba Airport. Then they land in order. Finally, they are arranged neatly.
They are all brand new and new. They are produced in the system, absolutely fine.
Moreover, they are all improved versions.
All machine guns were replaced with 7mm caliber.
In this way, the lethality will be greatly increased, and the sunken aircraft can be shot down more effectively, including bombers.
take over.
Keep busy with other things.
At the invitation of Zhangping, I chatted with the aviation school students for a long time.
In fact, there are not many aviation school students, only twenty-two.
Because there is a lot of knowledge and culture required and certain requirements for physical fitness, too few people can enter aviation schools.
In Yunnan Province, it is already very good to be able to read high school students.
What's more, it's going to middle school or even university.
Almost rare.
But mosquito meat is also meat.
Twenty-two is just twenty-two. It’s better than nothing.
After two years of training, you should be able to go solo. You can follow and move.
Two or three years later, it happened to be the period when the expeditionary force was dispatched. Basic air cover or basic airdrops could be carried out.
Anyway...
"Do it well!"
In the afternoon, the second batch of DC-3 transport planes arrived at Kunming Airport.
The remaining officers and soldiers of the Wan Battalion and more than 50 Flying Tigers were brought, including pilots, mechanics, handymen, etc.
After Chennard landed, he looked around and looked very happy.
"Sir."
"Captain Chen, I'll trouble you from now on."
"I have no choice."
Chennard has long wanted to make a transition.
At Changsha Airport, there was almost no chance of him playing.
Because Zhang Yong and the rookie pilots from the National Air Force can all take off to fight.
Now, when you arrive at Kunming Airport, you finally have your own independent world. Although there may not be many combat opportunities, it will be better than not.
"Zhang, I have carefully considered whether to try my luck in other countries."
"But Poland is dead."
"yes!"
"Mr. Chen, you will have a chance to fight soon."
"I hope!"
Of course Chennard was full of hope.
However, Kunming Airport is located in the southwest inland and does not seem to be an important target.
Japanese planes should not pay attention to this place.
Zhang Yong smiled but said nothing.
There are also Japanese spies in Kunming and radio stations.
Zhang Yong deliberately did not disturb these people.
Some recent events will definitely be reported by Japanese spies.
Then, the Japanese invaders will definitely dispatch planes to bomb the Yunnan-Vietnam Railway. This transportation line will be cut off.
However, the Japanese invaders did not dare to attack the railways in French Indochina. They could only bomb those in China. They had to circle around and fly over Guangxi Province.
In this way, Kunming Airport can take off fighter jets, ambush in advance, and then intercept them.
The Japanese invaders' fighter jets were insufficient to escort.
Therefore, the one who came must be a bomber. Moreover, the model should be the 96 Land Attack of the Navy Red Deer.
Chennard and others are very familiar with this kind of bomber.
If you have the chance, the results will be absolutely beautiful.
"Zhang Ping."
"arrive."
"Always keep the BA-65 fighter full of fuel and the machine gun bullets full."
"yes."
"But there is no need to mount the bomb."
"clear."
Zhang Yong's purpose was to intercept the Japanese fighter jets.
So, there is no need for bombs. That's the bomber business. Let's talk about it later in a while.
Now, we will give the Japanese aircraft a small blow first.
Sure enough, at 8 o'clock the next morning, the map of the Kazukio Finger prompted that there was movement at the Japanese invaders' Qiongya Airport.
