There were tanks in the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 382

Li Chu was not in the mood to care about what turmoil Cai Jing's death would cause in the capital.

Half of the Qilin Army stationed around had been secretly dispatched by him and returned. Many of the Qilin Army in this half were composed of local people, and there were also many soldiers of the Water Margin Army.

Because the plowing has begun.

The seeds sown in the field in February have grown into seedlings. In order to compete with God for time, taking advantage of the good weather during this period, half of the soldiers were temporarily transformed into farmers to help plant and transplant rice seedlings together.

In the season from March to April, no prince or force would mess around at this time.

Half of the soldiers went to help transplant rice seedlings. The military camp control area of ​​Rufen Town and Heshui Camp has been expanded again. This time, a large flat area has been opened up, and an airport has been built on it.

The airport is under the jurisdiction of the Fushui military camp, which is subject to military control and blockade.

The basic task of the empire rewarded an agricultural aircraft for agricultural spraying and irrigation the day before. The appearance of this aircraft reduced the custom coins of all aircraft in the customization system by half.

This plane was the first plane that Li Chu obtained from the Song Dynasty.

This plane is of great significance.

Although it is just an agricultural aircraft, it is an airplane, an airplane!
What is an airplane that can fly in the sky.

Different from the airship, the airship is too large and consumes different fuel. The current fuel can only be used for the airship to go to Yanchang County for a round trip, but the airship is not only large, but also very strict about the landing site. A large open space will do.

But airplanes are different.

Especially this agricultural aircraft.

If Li Chu's family was given the kind of aviation aircraft for later generations, maybe he would not be happy.

Why?

Because this thing can only be watched at that time.

Before the emergence of various other supporting facilities and equipment, it was useless to have such a large plane empty. The first is the runway. Although the runway can be solved by Li Chu, what is the use?
In addition to the departure runway, what about landing?

It’s okay to land in Rufen Town, but what about other places? Should an airport be built in every place?
This is a big project, and the only function of this is to let the passenger plane transport a little stuff. Compared with building a few super large airports, the gain outweighs the loss, but it is not as convenient as the current agricultural aircraft?

The reason why it is convenient is that it lowers the prices of other aircraft.

The second is portability.

The agricultural aircraft is not very big, and the wing spread is the length of a bus in the future, so that the requirements for the runway are very low. Secondly, the agricultural aircraft should be light in size, so that the length of the run-up to take off is short. It can even take off directly without a [-]-meter run-up.

It is also because of its lightness that this kind of aircraft can fly at a very low altitude, and its flexibility is also very high, and when it lands, it can even land on a flat runway in a mountainous area when necessary.

Because the reminder is light, the pressure on the landing wheel is also reduced when falling, so it can be forced to land on many terrain mountains.

The most important thing is that this kind of aircraft has low requirements for pilots, and it is easy to learn. It can help Li Chu train a large number of pilots in advance to prepare for the future.

The only fly in the ointment is that there are only two members.

Looking at the agricultural aircraft in front of me, the introduction above is an improved Republican Agricultural 13 aircraft with a single wing and two engines.

As for the normal agricultural aircraft with one crew seat and space, this one has two positions.

At the same time as obtaining this aircraft, the system also gave Li Chu a supporting guide for using agricultural aircraft. This guide was directly injected into Li Chu's mind just like when he obtained the Leopard 1 tank, making Li Chu an instant leader. A pilot with extensive experience flying agricultural aircraft.

Today is the day of the first flight test.

Due to its special circumstances, the Ge Shui Army did not participate in the rice planting incident.

Five hundred soldiers of the Yuan Shui Army were distributed on both sides of the runway, staring at the agricultural spraying machine on the runway that was painted with the distinctive decoration of the Qilin Army.

Yes, the agricultural sprayers have changed colors.

It was changed to the paint color of the unicorn robe. Although it was an agricultural spraying machine, Li Chu did not use it as an agricultural machine.

Didn’t you see, after receiving the mission reward this time, the suffix did not indicate that the item cannot be used for military purposes!
And agricultural aircraft
Behind Li Chu, Shi Tianyi, Li Han, Yang Zhi, and the leadership team of Rufen Town came, and they all stood behind Li Chu and looked at the toy called an 'airplane'.

Can this thing really fly?
Although there is some disbelief in my heart, they all have the same answer, and they will fly.

why?
Things as big as airships can fly, but this plane is so small, how can it not fly?
There were two parts to the first trial flight. In the first part, Li Chu boarded the agricultural aircraft he named Qilin No. [-] as everyone was calling for it, and then started the plane while everyone was watching.

When the speed increases to the speed that can take off, pull the lever, swish the front end of the aircraft and take off.

Different from the take-off of the airship, the airship takes off slowly in place, while the plane escapes gravity at high speed, which brings another kind of visual enjoyment to the onlookers.

Before everyone enjoyed it for a few seconds, the plane flew farther and farther, and then turned into a sesame seed.

Everyone: "..."

After a while, the plane came back and circled Rufen Town at a low speed. The huge hum of the plane immediately attracted all the people in the town. , Many people were frightened, and some even crawled directly on the ground.

However, there are also smart people who are not frightened and look curiously at the planes circling in the sky.

Because of the painting of the plane, this is the military uniform of the Qilin Army, which means that this thing belongs to the Qilin Army, so they are not afraid.

After circling Rufen Town, the plane slowly landed on the runway of Shuishui Airport.

The plane stopped, and everyone cheered.

After the first part of the test flight, it entered the second part.

Everyone looked at Yang Cheng enviously.

Because Yang Cheng is the lucky one in this second link.

In the second link, a person will be invited to board the plane with Li Chu.

Not to go sightseeing, but to perform a mission.

In the eyes of everyone, this mission is completely no different from sightseeing and experience flying.

A stack of printed leaflets was moved to the airport by the soldiers, and then these leaflets were delivered to the co-pilot seat of the Kirin-[-] aircraft.

As the co-pilot, Yang Cheng was responsible for these leaflets, which took up all the space in the passenger seat.

Not only that, there were also a large number of leaflets piled next to Li Chu's driver's seat.

These leaflets are part of what is being printed these days.
