Rebirth of the Spanish Empire

Chapter 523: Purchasing a Fighter Plane

"Tsarist Russia hopes that we can open up the weapons network as soon as possible so that Tsarist Russia can conduct more arms transactions with us, especially now that Spain has introduced Center B bombers into the air force on a large scale. We hope that we can give priority to Tsarist Russia, and they Said that they hope that Spain can complete the supply of Center B bombers to four squadrons of Tsarist Russia within half a year."

Alfonso couldn't help but frowned, but then he felt relieved. This approach of Tsarist Russia was expected. After all, after the reconciliation with Tsarist Russia, Spain had signed an agreement with Tsarist Russia to allow Tsarist Russia to conduct arms transactions. At that time, it signed four squadrons of center A-type bombers. However, in the end, due to position reasons , only less than half of it, that is, two squadrons, Spain has nothing to do. And Tsarist Russia obviously knew what was going on. Although he wanted to, he couldn't speak.

How could even a squadron of aircraft be able to maintain the huge territory of Tsarist Russia? On the vast border, Tsarist Russia could only continue to use soldier formations to maintain border stability.

One squadron is six bombers, two squadrons are twelve bombers, and four squadrons are twenty-four.

With these twenty-four Center B, plus the old-fashioned Center A, and the existence of thirty-six bombers, even the German Empire will have to stop thinking about Tsarist Russia.

German Empire? Alfonso looked thoughtful and said to Secretary of Defense Creston sitting on his right: "Now we have a total number of aircraft in Spain and types. To what extent has it developed? And what is the deployment situation? distributed"

"Now with the entry into service of the Center 2 bomber, Spain currently has more than 190 bombers in service.

Among them, there are currently 60 Center A and 130 Center B. In the aircraft manufacturing plants in Madrid and Northam, there are currently more than 30 aircraft under construction. It is estimated that these aircraft will be completed in less than two months. Aircraft will now be able to join combat teams. "

Creston said with great satisfaction that the power of this aircraft has allowed him to see huge prospects. If it were not for the bomber bombing in the Middle East, the whole world would be around now. He was even ignorant of this mysterious weapon in Spain. It can even be said that even Britain, France, the German Empire, etc. have a very high chance of being killed instantly when they suddenly face these big guys. It's a pity that it was a small trial at the beginning. He was actually helping the Rashid Kingdom. Other countries have been alerted. Even now, other countries are beginning to target the land and sea. I also began to forget to look towards the sky from time to time. Aircrafts from various countries were developed one after another. Although the functions were still relatively weak, they already felt threatened. Therefore, he still couldn't let go of his original decision.

"On the mainland, the Barajas Air Base in Madrid occupies five squadrons of 30 center B-type aircraft. Each squadron takes turns taking off every two hours to monitor ground target operations in Madrid. It also has the task of flying to satellite cities in various places. In the event of a war, they are always ready to support the battle ahead, mainly for tactical use.

There are three squadrons of 18 aircraft at the Barcelona Air Force Base, in order to carry out strategic threats to the southeast of France, especially the southern basins of the Longa River and the Rhone River.

There are also three squadrons of 18 aircraft in Zaragoza. This air base is mainly to supplement Barcelona and prepare to support Barcelona. At the same time, it is also a way of mutual assistance with Barcelona Air Base to carry out preparations. The opponent is covering. This is the Northeast deployment.

In the northwest, three squadrons of 18 aircraft are also deployed in Ponferrada. The purpose here is to shock the northern coast and prevent the army from arriving at the scene of the incident so quickly when other countries attack inward. When it comes, you can bomb the opponent first, and you can also threaten the warships that have entered the Bay of Biscay and the Atlantic Coast to make the bastards on these warships more disciplined and avoid misjudgment and direct bombardment. Fall into the water and swim”

Creston's stature is very tall, more than two meters tall. After years of military training, his stature has become even bigger, and his voice has the unique boldness of a soldier, so when he said these loudly At the meeting, Alfonso XIII, Prime Minister Chávez, Foreign Minister Trini, Finance Minister Omer and Interior Minister Jose all present could not help but laugh.

Creston continued: "Moreover, these 18 Center No. 2 bombers can defend Porto, an important city in the north of Portugal. This is a very important strategic location. Your Majesty, I think, in fact, we should be here It is enough to add two squadrons. After all, this is our frontier area in the Atlantic. If the threat here can be increased, the ships that mainly pass through this area will not dare to approach our coastal defense line."

"I agree, but"

Alfonso liked being looked at with such surprise. Said: "However, I plan to deploy more advanced ones."

"More advanced? Do you mean?" Creston looked at Alfonso nervously, while the others were also surprised and even more surprised.

"This second-generation center is already far ahead of them. If we bring out the third-generation, we will be even more powerful than them." Even Foreign Minister Trini had to sigh.

"Yes, if there are three generations of centers, then those countries such as Britain, Germany, France, Italy, and the United States that have begun to catch up with us in the first generation will soon be chasing us in the second generation. It turns out that everything will return to its original point. When the time comes, their expressions will really make people look forward to it.

Chavez likes to see other people dumbfounding the most, as it seems to excite him even more. Alfonso even once thought that he had sadistic tendencies, but found that he was just treating foreign dignitaries. At that moment, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"As the saying goes, if you take one step ahead, you will lead step by step. If you make a mistake, you will lose every step. So, when they thought they were about to catch up with our No. 2 center, they thought they could compete with us in terms of strategy and fighter aircraft. When we compete against each other and take risks, we will face a head-on blow and hit the opponent in the abdomen. In this case, the harvest at that time will also be huge. No matter what kind of interests, we Everyone has the upper hand."

Seeing these people speaking so eloquently made Alfonso very excited. These are his real team members. These people are all under 50 years old. At this age, for other industries, , even reaching the age of retirement, but politically speaking, it is the time of greatest maturity.

As you age, you get younger and younger. This is the truest portrayal of politics. Finally, many people only start to enter the ranks of heads of state or government in their sixties, including several of India's Asan. The leaders are all still in their 80s and are still serving as the Prime Minister of India.

Therefore, this group of people will be the team behind his expansion ambitions in the next ten years. This group of people will accompany him...

"Your Majesty, although center No. 3 has appeared, we still have to keep a low profile. After all, the implications here are extremely huge, and for us, the benefits gained from keeping this secret are, That’s what’s maximized.”

"Not bad" Jose Omer finally said this. Among them, he is the most junior, and the others have been His Majesty's right-hand men for many years. Therefore, on some issues, he is very cautious and generally does not The exit was just like before, but this time it involved his own field, and he had to express his thoughts.

"This time Tsarist Russia proposed to purchase Center 2. For us, apart from some political noise, we are actually the most welcoming. Of course, in terms of diplomatic attitude, we should continue to maintain a reserved attitude and let Tsarist Russia With other countries thinking that we are reluctant to give up, this will allow us to not only make Tsarist Russia pay a greater price for the purchase, but also eliminate the suspicion of other countries, and even stimulate the desire of our allies to purchase weapons, providing We strive for more weapons contracts and create more space."

"Yes, plus the three Nordic countries, Denmark, Sweden, and Norway, which are already interested in us in terms of weapons. Under the premise that Tsarist Russia suddenly increases a large number of air force bombers, these three countries may also be able to moderately withstand Britain and Germany. Under the pressure of the empire, they might buy from us to deal with the threat of Tsarist Russia. After all, the current fighter planes of Britain, the German Empire, France, Italy, and the United States are still very primitive, and even the latter countries are not as good as mine. Center Type 1. Taking the United States as an example, the current American bombers are still mainly based on the Wright brothers' original four-row aircraft, with a few more explosive packs added.

Chavez had seen Center 2's plane, and he even had a fight with Trini at first. The two of them ended up taking Center 2 into the sky. After seeing that the other party was not frightened to the point of peeing, they became unconvinced and changed the situation to Trini. Riding on the Center Type 1, the final result was that there was no winner or loser, but at the same time, they also received the title of Government Aircraft Duo to show their appreciation for their courage to challenge the unknown sky. This is naturally their King. Alfonso XIII praised it.

However, as word spread from person to person, even abroad, many people knew that Spain had two ministers who dared to sit on the co-pilot on an airplane. (To be continued...)
