Chapter 15 The Challenge of New Elites (2/2)

Buzz! Buzz!

Two rapid buzzing sounds were made over the Qinglong Air Force Base in Yanjing, and two fighter jets passed through the sky one after another.

One of the two fighters is the Morana DP3 fighter jet of the Northeast Army Air Force painted with the blue sky and white sun flag, and the other is the F11C fighter jet from the Royal Air Force of the Tang Empire.

The two fighters chased each other and made various tactical fighting moves in the air, fighting hard to part.

Tens of thousands of base officers and soldiers gathered at the entire Qinglong Air Force Base, all of whom were watching the wonderful fighting in the air attentively.

During the training of the Yanjing Aviation Team, the officers and soldiers on the base also came to watch it when they were idle, but they had never been as large as today.

It turned out that since the Northeast Army Air Force pilots and teachers and students of Northeast Army Aviation School were taken to the Tang Dynasty, Zhang Meng personally met with the instructors and students of the aviation school such as Chen Haihua, as well as elite personnel of the Northeast Army Air Force such as Zhao Wenyi and Gao Zhihang.

Zhang Meng attaches great importance to these people, especially the elite pilots in the Northeast Air Force, including Zhao Wenyi and Gao Zhihang. Zhang Meng knows the great value of these pilots. Most of them are excellent pilots who graduated from the Paris Aviation Academy in France, and are also pilots who have rich practical experience in the Soviet air combat. Zhang Meng spent so much energy and money on them, so he naturally held them in his hands and was afraid of falling and melting them. He was extremely favorable.

Zhang Meng immediately issued an order to incorporate Northeast Army pilots such as Zhao Wenyi, Gao Zhihang, Wan Xianzhang into the Royal Air Force of the Tang Dynasty, and to incorporate instructors and students from the aviation school such as Chen Haihua into the vocational education and continued their studies in the Tang Dynasty Imperial Air Force Academy.

However, newcomers are always troubled by the elderly, which is undoubtedly an inevitable thing from ancient times to the present.

Especially Zhao Wenyi, Gao Zhihang and Wan Xianzhang, the elite pilots who had graduated from the Paris Aviation Academy in France and experienced real air combat, are very skilled and brave, and naturally have a great temper. Faced with the difficulties of the "old" pilots of the Tang army, they should not surrender easily.

As a result, the two sides suddenly became more and more interested in aircraft piloting skills and air combat skills. The "old people" led by the captain of the Yanjing Aviation Team Xue Zhigang competed publicly with the "new people" mainly composed of Zhao Wenyi, Gao Zhihang and Wan Xianzhang.

In the central terminal, Zhang Meng looked up at the sky through the glass window and carefully observed the two fighter jets fighting in the air.

From Zhang Meng's personal point of view, although the performance of the Molana DP3 fighter is much better than that of the F11C fighter, in terms of technology alone, the skills and experience of the Northeast Army Air Force pilots are much higher than that of the Yanjing Aviation Team. After all, the Air Force pilots of the Northeast Army either graduated from the Paris Aviation Academy in France for five years, or graduated from the Fengtian Aviation Academy, and had combat experience with the Soviet Air Force. On the other hand, the Yanjing Aviation Team was established for only two or three years and did not have real air combat experience, so when the two sides competed, the Yanjing Aviation Team pilots suddenly showed various shortcomings.

"Your Highness, the Yanjing Air Force has been shot down 19 times, and only 6 people have been shot down from the Northeast Army!"

Air Force Commander Liu Xiang stood beside Zhang Meng and shook his head and sighed, reminding Zhang Meng from time to time about the scores of both sides.

Zhang Meng knew Liu Xiang’s intention, so he smiled and said, “If you have itchy hands, go and try it! These Northeast Army have some skills, but their arrogance is too fierce, so you have to kill them!”

Liu Xiang was waiting for Zhang Meng's words, so he hurried down to prepare.

Not long after, Liu Xiang drove a P6E fighter jet into the air, which immediately attracted the shouts of all the base personnel.

Liu Xiang, commander of the Tang Dynasty Royal Air Force, flew himself, and the atmosphere suddenly became warm.

Zhang Meng knew Liu Xiang’s ability because he was trained by Zhang Meng himself.

Although the constitution stipulates that the emperor is the supreme commander of the three armed forces in the army, navy and air force, the Tang Dynasty's army, navy and air force always called Zhang Meng the commander of the three armed forces.

As the supreme commander of the three armies, Zhang Meng is naturally an all-rounder who can do everything from heaven to earth to sea. Only in this way can he better understand the training of the three armies in all aspects and improve the combat effectiveness of the three armies. Even for Zhang Meng, the absolute shock to the soldiers of the three armies he demanded.

At that time, Zhang Meng and the army's thorny Yang Yi competed alone, shocking all the army troops in one fell swoop, making them unite around Zhang Meng with a feeling of admiration.

After the establishment of the Air Force, Zhang Meng also participated in special training, and his purpose also played a leading role in the Air Force.

As a special forces soldier, Zhang Meng naturally demands omnipotence. Although he is now the crown prince and commander of the three armies, he still has strong fighting spirit. With his superb personal combat qualities and training of special test pilots from several Raptor Airlines, he became the most powerful air force pilot of the Royal Air Force of the Tang Dynasty in less than a month. Although Zhang Meng has no experience in practical air combat in the air, he is still quite familiar with the air combat theory of a generation of aircraft, especially the superb tactical movements of some first-generation aircraft, no one knows better than him.

It is precisely because of Zhang Meng's leading role that the Royal Air Force of the Tang Dynasty was able to form combat effectiveness in a short period of time, and his personal skills won unanimous admiration and admiration from all the officers and soldiers of the Air Force.

It was impossible for Zhang Meng to lead the team to fight in the air during the war, but he still had to maintain absolute command over the air force. Chiang Kai-shek relied on the principal of the Whampoa Military Academy to win over the Whampoa officers' regiment and control the army. Zhang Meng was no exception to adopt Chiang Kai-shek's trick. He was also the principal of the Tang Empire Military Academy. The cadets of the Army, Navy and Air Force were all his students. However, Zhang Meng had a more powerful method than Chiang Kai-shek, that is, he was an all-rounder himself. Many officers and soldiers of the Army, Navy and Air Force were attracted by his superb personal combat skills, just like Li Mai of the Blue Fox Special Forces before, and many officers and soldiers also wanted to worship Zhang Meng as their division.

Whether they are pursuing personal skills or getting promoted and making money, Zhang Meng also needs to form an interest group with them to control the army. After all, one person's strength is not enough to control the entire Tang army, and one person's interests are also not as stable and long-term as the rule of an interest group.

Zhang Meng then accepted many disciples, including all branches of the army, navy and air force. On the one hand, Zhang Meng taught them his personal skills to improve their influence in the army. On the other hand, he regarded them as his confidants and direct troops, so that they could become their own tentacles to control the entire army and even the entire empire.

Liu Xiang is one of Zhang Meng's disciples.

As the commander of the Royal Air Force of the Tang Dynasty, in addition to Zhang Meng, Liu Xiang is the highest commander of the Air Force. According to Zhang Meng's rules, as a commander, you must understand everything about his military branch. Especially not long after the three armies of the Tang Empire were established, the leading role and elite deterrence were very important. Every officer relied on his ability to make a living, and whoever had the ability would be promoted.

Liu Xiang is the most powerful Air Force disciple trained by Zhang Meng himself, so he can serve as the commander of the Air Force.

Just now, Colonel Xue Zhigang, the captain of the Yanjing Air Force, had lost to Gao Zhihang of the Northeast Army. Many other elites of the Yanjing Air Force also lost more and less in the competition with Northeast Army pilots. Although Zhang Meng was very happy with the combat qualities of these Northeast Army pilots, he was also worried that these people would not be controlled in the future. He dared to challenge the elderly to break the rules of the game on the first day of joining the Tang Dynasty Royal Air Force, which is not allowed.

Zhang Meng has seen the air combat stunts of the Northeast Air Force pilots. Although they look very powerful in this era, they are actually old techniques for air combat during World War I. Except for the newer techniques of Zhao Wenyi, Gao Zhihang, Wan Xianzhang and others, the skills of others are not much different from those of the Yanjing Aviation Team pilots, and they are both half a pound to eight taels.

Zhang Meng knew Liu Xiang's ability well. As his best disciple, Liu Xiang must have been confident after observing the other party's flight skills and tactical movements. Otherwise, he would not dare to take action easily. After all, he was the commander of the Tang Air Force, and if he lost face, he would lose his fortune.

Sure enough, Liu Xiang did not disappoint. Within half an hour of launching, he had shot down twelve consecutive rounds of opponents, and he immediately scored back the score.

"Our Air Force Commander is actually a master! I'll meet him!"
