Bright Sword: I am the old squad leader of the Northwest Shanxi Iron Triangle

Chapter 374: The First Item of Today's Training

So what if this kind of gun can fire 40 nautical miles?

A distance of 40 nautical miles is 60 kilometers.

At 60 kilometers, without radar guidance, it is wishful thinking to expect to hit the target with an optical sight. Daydreaming is harder than climbing to the sky.

The chance of hitting a target 40 nautical miles away is about the same as winning the lottery.

Ling Yunzhi has never been obsessed with big cannons and big ships.

In his opinion, the best combination is aircraft plus cruisers or destroyers.

This combination can attack or defend, and the attack distance and defense target range are small.

Everyone entered the artillery factory workshop.

Along with these shipbuilding experts came weapons experts.

These weapons experts are all quite awesome.

When they saw the cannons that the Japanese saw, they all frowned.

In their view, the cannons produced by the Japanese were simply rubbish and not worth mentioning at all. How could they show off such stuff?

"Sir, please forgive me for being blunt, but if we want to have our own unique warships, we can't use this stuff."

"The shells of this cannon are quite powerful, but the weight of this cannon is too heavy and it is not suitable for ordinary people to operate."

"Also, the Japanese artillery is far behind that of Europe.

We can't go on like this.

If we want to build our own weapons, we can't use these little devils' guns, we have to start from scratch."

After hearing the sound quality, he nodded. He brought a lot of Russian experts with him when he came.

Although these Russian cannons are not the most powerful in Europe, the cannons produced by the Russians are much stronger than those produced by the Japanese.

The weapons produced by these Japanese devils look just as rubbish to the Russians.

These little devils, their weapons and equipment are simply useless in the eyes of the old hat.

"Give me some suggestions, and I'll find someone to study them right away. If we can avoid using the Japanese's artillery, then don't use it. I also know that the Japanese's artillery is a bunch of rubbish."

"Compared with our guns, these little devils' guns are just garbage."

After hearing this, everyone nodded.

Early the next morning.

Everyone took action.

Ling Yunzhi drew a proportional overhead view of an aircraft carrier near the airport.

He called all the pilots over, more than 700 pilots of various fighter planes and bomber planes.

Of course there were pilots from several other airports who did not come.

All the more than 700 pilots gathered together.

Ling Yunzhi led them onto the map.

Everyone scratched their heads; they had no idea what this was.

“Everyone, our aircraft carrier is in the shipyard.

It won't be long before the first steel plate of the aircraft carrier is cut.

The workers at the shipyard assured me that they would build an aircraft carrier for us within three to four months.

This means that we will be training on an aircraft carrier in 3 to 4 months.

I will select the first batch of carrier-based aircraft pilots from among you. Each aircraft carrier will need 200 carrier-based aircraft pilots.

I will select 400 pilots from among you.”

"Everyone, this is a groundbreaking event on our Chinese land.

No one can stop us from moving forward.

As long as we build an aircraft carrier, we will be able to have our own aircraft carrier battle group.

By then we can easily deal with everything?

The days when these little Japanese devils showed off their might in our territorial waters are gone forever.

We must not only destroy them, but also their ships."

After hearing this, everyone nodded. At this moment, for them, this was definitely something that everyone should be happy about.

"Listen carefully, I hope to select carrier-based aircraft pilots from among you, and you must train hard.

Will our aircraft carriers be sailing on the vast ocean by then?

We are going to take off and land from aircraft carriers in the ocean.

If the ability is not good enough, there is a high possibility that the plane will be driven into the sea.

I guess this is not what you want to see, right?"

After hearing this, everyone nodded repeatedly. At this moment, this was something they had never thought of before, and this was also something they had never expected before.

But when everyone heard Ling Yunzhi say this, they were all filled with passion.

"Sir, there's no need to say more. We'll obey you in everything."

"If I could be elected as an aircraft carrier pilot, I would definitely blow up all the Japanese ships."

"Sir, it's not like we haven't flown a plane before. We are all very skilled."

“Is there any difference between flying a plane over the sea and flying a plane over land?”

After hearing this, Ling Yunzhi pointed to the huge floor plan under his feet.

“Here is a bird’s-eye view of an aircraft carrier that I drew.

It's just drawn in 1:1 scale. Are you going to take off, land planes on such a large deck?

If the first step can be completed, will we still practice takeoff and landing on an aircraft carrier that is 70% operational?

I hope you all take this seriously.”

"Listen carefully, everyone. What we need to do now is nothing else but to practice seriously on this aircraft carrier.

We must not be careless, and we cannot be careless at all.

You all know that the aircraft carrier is on the sea. When our planes land from the air and see the aircraft carrier on the sea, it is actually like a slap in the face, right?

If you are not careful, the plane may crash into the sea."

"Taking off and landing on an aircraft carrier, especially landing on an aircraft carrier, tests our ability and our psychological quality."

After hearing this, the gods nodded repeatedly. At this moment, everyone knew it.

If they want to take off and land on such an aircraft carrier, it would be harder than climbing to the sky.

Everyone knows that selecting carrier-based aircraft pilots is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for them.

If you can be selected as a carrier-based aircraft pilot, you can get on an aircraft carrier. It is easier to attack the Japanese on an aircraft carrier than from a land aircraft.

By that time, they would be able to easily fly planes, take off from aircraft carriers, and use torpedoes to bomb the Japanese warships.

“If we want to have a strong navy, you must train hard, otherwise it will be too late to regret.

Ladies and gentlemen, the first training item today is to take off from this soil."
