The first episode of the 512th chapter stupid bird
However, the Yulin Army conducted a carpet-style search near the location where the test was conducted, so that several spies from the Dongping Intelligence Bureau could hide. Professionally provide e-book downloads. However, the Yulin Army's search was not too serious. The airship test was used to make the area of [31 Novel Network] use too large, and it was originally a semi-public test to boost people's livelihood and morale. There were quite a lot of people, officials, scholars and their families coming to watch the airship. In Yunzhou, such public tests often set aside an area for these people to gather together to watch, which was convenient for discussion. However, Bei Liao had relatively little management experience in this area, and no one proposed it.
Such suggestions. Many people took the lead in laying the floor mats and putting food and wine in several places with good vision, as if they were on an outing. In this case, the two spies from the Dongping Intelligence Bureau who were dressed in bright clothes and carrying telescopes were not conspicuous at all. The telescopes in their hands attracted a wave of curiosity from the Yulin Army officers who came to investigate. In Beiliao, telescopes are rare. Except for the army, only a few powerful families or wealthy families who do smuggling trades have this thing. However, since these two young people have a binocular high-precision telescope, the less the Yulin Army officers dare not offend them.
The test was originally scheduled to start after the imperial court, and the king came to the test site, but because something happened during the imperial court today, the disharmonious discussions broke out between the Western Route Army and Gaosen Banner, one hour later than usual. When the king arrived at the test site, it was already noon. After a little preparation, the test began.
In the busy situation of ground crew members, a total of four airships assembled by the airship mechanism in Chunnan were slowly launched, occupying four corners of the test area. The appearance of these airships is slightly different from the prototypes in Chunnan. The airship pods in Chunnan were made of iron frames, and the Beiliao didn't know what the considerations were. They used rattan frames and were covered with skins on the outside. It was said to be skins, but at a glance, they should be something like leather armor. The leather making process of Beiliao is indeed relatively mature, but in this way, the airship pods will have insufficient weight and poor stability. The use of iron frames and wooden shells in Chunnan is not because they don't want to reduce the weight, but because they really can't solve the problem of stability. In the Beiliao, they are probably still immature in design and have never encountered such problems at all.
Then, looking at the test site of the Ministry of Works in the valley from the hillside, you can see a large number of soldiers and craftsmen pushing out a huge airship from the warehouse on one side. Then heat and inflate it. As the airship's airbags swelled up, the two spies couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise.
The airship developed by Beiliao is quite interesting. The airship's airbags are not the oval mushroom type that was conservative when Yunzhou first developed the airship, nor the cigar type that pursued speed or the water droplet shape used by the already mature snow owl. It is a complex geometric body that is not easy to describe, with the ridges of the ridges very clear. The front is wider, and the tail has four tail wings. What is even more surprising is the pod below, which is also geometric, blending with the appearance of the entire airship, and looks very harmonious. The airship is very large from beginning to end, and in comparison, the pod is a little smaller, but this airship is still much larger than the airship in Chunnan. It looks quite considerable in load capacity.
"Xiaoyu, it seems they are doing a good job." The older spy muttered.
"Look there... the power part of the airship, I really don't know what they thought..." Xiaoyu's observation seemed to be more detailed. The power system of the Beiliao airship was so huge that it occupied a quarter of the space of the entire pod. It naturally also included the fuel tank, but there was no classic design like the jet port. "It seems that this thing can fly far. Lao Xu, they are doing a good job."
"What's the use of flying far away... Can such a pod be staying in a pod?" Old Xu murmured. They are all people who are very experienced in airships, otherwise they would not be their turn to do such investigations. The power and control devices of the airship are the most critical part of the entire airship. Not only do you want to fly far and high, but you also have to consider the comfort of the passengers. Ye Tao's airship has always done a very good job in this regard from the first model to now. Airships have always been easy to control and easy to maintain.
The crew can always work in a relatively comfortable situation. But looking at the airships in Beiliao, it seems different. The power plant that occupies such a large pod is enough to drive the crew crazy, and it is not convenient to carry things like sulphurs, which is too unsafe. To talk about the advantages, it is very obvious that this airship is obviously very convenient to produce. The geometric airbags are much more convenient than creating water droplet-shaped airbags in Yunzhou. As long as the joints are qualified, it is enough.
The airship slowly took off, and its posture was very well controlled. It was a very classic posture of lifting its tail first and then slowly taking off in a straight line. The ground crew members who pulled the ropes on the ground didn't seem to have to control it. Lao Xu and Xiaoyu could see that there were five people in the pole of the airship. Look,

The other party contacts the ground) T-language. On the one hand, it is daytime now, and the communication light box technology is one of the secrets of Dongping. The highly concentrated but extremely light metal cover inside is currently only a small workshop in the Yunzhou branch of Ye's Workshop can produce, without any semicolons. Only electric lights can produce lights of sufficient intensity for daytime contact. Although Bei Liao wants to learn the entire technical system related to electricity, he is probably powerless.
The airship reached a height of about 150 meters, and after some horizontal movements, it climbed again, and then made different movements at a height of 250 meters, 400 meters and 500 meters in turn. Looking at these air maneuvers carefully, Xiao Yu couldn't help but curl his lips with contempt. "Old Xu, why can't they do a sharp lifting and lowering action?"
Old Xu smiled and leaned in front of the telescope without moving his eyes away. He didn't care. The rapid lifting movement was quite difficult even in Yunzhou. This was because the heating air was determined by the mechanism of heating the air. At the beginning, the ground flame nozzle was single-ported and the flame was relatively high. Once the rapid lifting and lowering were carried out, the flame was very likely to burn to the edge of the airbag and cause a fire. Ye Tao also changed the single-ported spout to a porous spout until after the third batch of airships. The flame height was very low. There were special protective devices outside. Moreover, the porous spray can also determine which spouts can be ignited according to the specific situation, so that the airship is more flexible. However, this technology was only used in the Dongping military airships. Even the Communication Bureau and the two major logistics companies did not use such high-end technology. Of course, those airships used for airships do not need to be slashed and lowered. As long as they can fly at a safer angle, it is enough.
“Let’s go. It’s enough to see this.
"Old Xu said to Xiaoyu. They hurriedly left. Experts looked at the tricks. They didn't continue to keep their reasons. They would report their observation results in truth. For other information, they didn't have to take risks to understand the specific data. That was not their work. After all, Kong Xinhua was still there.
Unlike those spies from the intelligence bureau, Kong Xinhua could not know how the performance of the airship might be. Although he had also taken airships and even snow owls, he was not a professional engineering and technology expert. He rarely thought about this. However, when he saw the officials of the Ministry of Works and Situ Lian describing the performance and manufacturing of the entire airship to the king and other important officials in the court, he was still a little puzzled. This kind of airship is stronger than the Chunnan airship. Whether it is the flight altitude, speed or load capacity. However, compared with the Chunnan airship, this airship is more airworthy and has a higher cost.
"Mr. Kong. Can you think of a solution to this list?" Situ Lian handed over to Kong Xinhua a very exaggerated list, covering a series of land, from metal materials, processing tools, precision blade tools, craftsmen and training tutorials, etc. Beiliao is too different from several other countries in terms of technology. Airships are really difficult for them.
Kong Xinhua just asked Ye Tao for his request. All these things could be obtained. However, he hesitated. He asked: "Mr. Situ. Do you mean that except for the process of making leather, do you have to rely on external forces to find people in the entire manufacturing process? This cost..."
Situ Lian sighed and said, "Your Majesty has made a resolution to build at least thirty airships in a year. However, with the current strength of the Ministry of Works, it is already the limit to be able to build more than one in a month. You can definitely not complete such a task, and you cannot afford such a cost. Although the performance is stronger than Chunnan's airships, the cost is almost three times higher. Moreover, this thing cannot be used by someone. How to use it and how to cooperate with combat is really a long way to go. However, these things are not something I can control."
Kong Xinhua was a little hesitant, but he still asked his followers to take a package. He said, "Mr. Situ, I was going to congratulate you on the successful test flight of the airship. You see, maybe it can be started. I took this list, but it is really impossible to guarantee what it can be. Materials and tools, maybe I can still think of ways. As for the craftsman... the villain really has no way to go. But I will think of another way. If this airship is so expensive and I don't know how to use it, it's better not to... One year, Lord. Situ, the villain is brave. Can Ye Tao really give me a year in Beiliao?"
Situ Lian sighed and opened the package. There was a thick "Snow Owl Airship Operation Guide", which was the kind of thing that was placed in the cabin for pilots to check how to operate under various circumstances. It was full of pictures and texts, and there were detailed illustrations of many parts, with the accuracy comparable to the drawings. Situ Lian's eyes shone, but soon became dimmed and said, "Snow Owl... It's really a thing that is too strong to compare..."
