Chapter 256

After leaving the Privy Council, Bai Zhizhan discovered that he had a cold sweat, and his underwear was soaked in sweat.

Drink three cups of tea and answer three questions.

What is Xue Yuanzheng's plan?

When answering the last question, to be precise, Bai Zhizhan was just joking in his heart, thinking that Xue Yuanzheng was testing him.

Perhaps, Xue Yuanzheng also asked Liu Xiangzhen the same question.

Ask for advice?

What a shrewd and powerful figure Xue Yuanzheng is, and he needs to ask a newly promoted major general?

Even if Bai Zhizhan has some insights into this kind of strategic problem, it would seem very naive compared to Xue Yuanzheng.

It is definitely not about asking for advice, but about using this method to test the battle.

To become the commander of the Imperial Navy, you must have a keen strategic vision, or at most you are just a general.

But, what do you think so much?

Bai Zhizhan returned to the hotel and found Zhou Yongtao and Jiang Haiyang, then called Li Yunxiang over, and the four of them set up a table in the hotel.

After a few cups, Li Yunxiang started talking.

In the afternoon, he submitted an application for transfer to Liu Changxun and immediately received a reply. A few days later, after handing over the work, he went to the Army Air Force Command to report.

His next position is the acting commander of the Army Strategic Aviation Corps.

Unsurprisingly, he will be promoted to Lieutenant General of the Army Air Force in a few months.

In addition, the establishment of an independent air force has been concluded.

Because the establishment of the Air Force was supported by Xue Yuanzheng, the Commander-in-Chief of the Army did not express his opposition, but believed that it was not appropriate to carry out such large-scale military reforms during the war. It was recommended to divide them into two steps. First, let the Army Air Force become an independent branch and gain autonomy. After the independent operation of the Army Air Force is basically free of problems, then consider dividing it and forming a real Air Force.

Xue Yuanzheng has agreed in principle to adopt a two-step plan.

During the war, it is indeed not beneficial to make too much changes to the existing military system. In any case, the establishment of an air force will have an impact on millions of officers and soldiers.

The establishment of the Air Force is likely to be postponed until after the end of the war, at least until the late stage of the war.

The first thing that was divided from the army was the strategic aviation force that Li Yunxiang was about to lead.

Compared with tactical aviation, the strategic aviation corps is obviously more independent and has little to do with other army units, especially armored forces. Therefore, letting the strategic aviation corps become independent first will not have much impact on the army's combat operations, nor will it be boycotted by officers and soldiers.

Don’t forget that the Imperial Army has been focusing on building tactical aviation for the past twenty years, and the strategic aviation army has only emerged in recent years.

Here, Li Yunxiang told the truth about his return to Luhang.

When he asked him to go back and serve as the deputy commander of the strategic aviation force, he mainly focused on two points. One is his relationship with the current priest, that is, he can be considered half a national relative no matter what he said. By being able to speak in front of the priest, he can have an impact on the army. The other is his relationship with the navy, that is, he knows naval generals like Bai Zhizhan, and most of the navy generals will give him face.

This matter is related to the Navy?

After Bai Zhizhan's questioning, Li Yunxiang told the truth.

A group of naval aviation pilots would follow him back to the army, and they all agreed to wait for him to go back to the commander's position to issue the transfer order.

In addition, we will definitely compete with the Navy for resources in the future.

In Li Yunxiang's words, it is to compete for food with the Navy and Air Force.

Li Yunxiang was very sorry for this.

Bai Zhizhan did not take it seriously. After all, Li Yunxiang is the main promoter of the strategic air force. His ambition is to build a world-class strategic air force. When he came to the navy, he was indeed forced to do so. To put it bluntly, there was no place to go, not that he wanted to take root in the navy.

At the end of the conversation, Bai Zhizhan also found some valuable news from Li Yunxiang.

Shenpu and Zhu Huasheng did not brag, and the Army Air Force did use special incendiary bombs, which achieved very good results in the battle on the Icestorm Peninsula.

A few days ago, the Army organized hundreds of bombers to bomb the shrimp houses in the western part of Nayi.

The incendiary bomb used!

The bombing effect is nothing to say, but the losses are heavy. More than 40 bombers were shot down or damaged, and the combat loss rate was nearly 8%.

As Li Yunxiang said, it was mainly because no fighter jets were arranged to escort.

It is not that the Land Airlines negligence is, but that the conditions do not allow it.

Whether at the southern end of the Icestorm Peninsula or on Je Island, there are no airports with complete facilities and good conditions that can deploy and support aviation combat.

Due to traffic restrictions, there is nothing to count on on the Icestorm Peninsula.

To be honest, it is more appropriate to go to Jidao.

The airport on Je Island is by the sea, and there is a temporary dock built by the Marine Corps nearby. Just a few roads are needed to build to give full play to the advantages of sea transportation.

According to Li Yunxiang's intention, Land Airlines will take over Ji Island as soon as possible and expand the airport of Ji Island.

But the problem is that it will take several months no matter how fast it is.

In the next few months, the navy will definitely need to help the aircraft carrier-based fighter jets to provide cover for the bomber group.

However, this matter has not been decided yet.

The Navy can actually mobilize only four aircraft carriers. The "Hengjiang" must return to Hong Kong for maintenance. It is another matter whether it can be repaired.

It must be said that the navy is now all clay Buddhas crossing the river.

On the other side of the East Viagra, the Newland Navy has deployed five fleet aircraft carriers, and two small fleet aircraft carriers are ready to reinforce the East Viagra.

In order to shorten the voyage, the Newland Navy has transferred the Viagra Fleet Command to Zhenbao Port.

On Fanyanyang, the Royal Bran Navy will also send two fleet aircraft carriers to come in the near future.

As expected, the Royal Brand Navy will first strengthen the defensive deployment of Lion Spring City, dispatch more combat aircraft, and increase the intensity of activities in the direction of the Flame Sea.

Even if four large aircraft carriers are delivered and put into service, the Imperial Navy may not be able to draw aircraft carriers to support China Airlines.

Of course, there is good news.

Chengfeng's "volatile production line" has been tested and run, proving that its design is very successful and can increase the production efficiency of heavy bombers ten times.

More than 40 aircraft were produced in one month of trial production, almost four times the previous output.

After the Spring Festival holiday, the production line of Chengfeng Company will be officially launched.

After that, 100 four-engine heavy bombers will be delivered to China Airlines every month!

This is also one of the reasons why Luhang asked Li Yunxiang to take charge of the overall situation immediately.

With Li Yunxiang coming forward, it will save a lot of trouble just by purchasing bombers, and Li Yunxiang knows better how to use these heavy bombers.

The meal was eaten from evening until midnight.

If Zhou Yongtao hadn't stopped him, Bai Zhizhan and Li Yunxiang would have been drunk, and Jiang Haiyang would have been drunk in the first half.

There is no way, he is determined to be drunk, and no one can stop him.

He wanted to follow Li Yunxiang back to Lu Hang, but he expressed his loyalty to Bai Zhizhan. He couldn't just leave, so he kept burying his head and drinking.

Bai Zhizhan was also very emotional.

If possible, he hopes that Li Yunxiang can stay, after all, Li Yunxiang is also the backbone of the Imperial Navy Aviation Corps.

However, he also knew that Liu Yunxiang's ambition was the Air Force.

No matter what, I have to wish Li Yunxiang a blessing.
