"Quick, quick, quick, pull out our horses." After getting off the plane, Qin Baoshan shouted. At this time, the bitter cold wind did not stop Qin Baoshan's footsteps. There is a fire burning.
Hurry up and salvage the plane while the river is melting. If it¡¯s after night, the river will freeze again tomorrow, and you have to wait until spring when the flowers bloom. By then, the plane in the river will be frozen again. Soaked for several months, can it still be used? Some parts are old and there is no way to replace them with new ones.
Qin Baoshan couldn't wait.
However, apart from him, other people are naturally the same. When the big guy saw Qin Baoshan's actions, why didn't he know that Qin Baoshan wanted to fish up the plane, repair it, and use it for his own use?
If you have a plane on your side, then when the little devil's plane arrives, you can still pester him for a while, so that the little devil's reconnaissance plane will not dare to fly arrogantly to investigate. In that case, this place will be safer.
Therefore, by the time Qin Baoshan shouted, the horses had already been pulled out, and even people by the river had already begun to take off their clothes.
The river was cold, but they didn't care. They drank a few sips of Shaodao wine, and a few people with good water skills jumped into the water, took the rope, dived to the bottom, and then tied the rope firmly to the plane.
When they came up, they were all shivering with cold, drinking wine to warm up their bodies, and bragging: "I, I'm not bragging, I'm the only one who dares to go down, if someone else"
"Okay, hurry up, drink a few more sips, and then go home and go to the kang to warm up on the kang. It's freezing cold, if you get a cold, it will be fatal." The braggart stopped bragging, wrapped Putting on a sheepskin coat, he hurried to the nearest village to find a kang to keep him warm.
The rope is already there, next, just pull it up.
The horse was brought over, pulled the rope, and exerted a little bit of strength. The plane in the river just came out little by little, and finally, it was dragged out of the water!
Just, why is half of the wing missing?
"Fortunately, half of the wing is missing. If the nose is missing, it will be difficult to fix." Qin Baoshan sighed, the wing is easy to handle, as long as there is a carpenter, the nose is the engine. If the head is gone, the engine is gone, so what a fart.
Major Cromlin has been watching from the sidelines, watching the plane being towed up, and asked enthusiastically, "Are you really planning to repair this plane?"
"It would be great if you could support us with a few planes." Qin Baoshan said, "Your domestic planes can be of any type, and we don't dislike poor performance."
Qin Baoshan's words left Major Kromlin speechless. Do you still want to support the aircraft? How is that possible! The most that can support you are light weapons. This is just to fight devils. Otherwise, how could the United States support you and want airplanes? Absolutely no way!
"We, the Eighth Route Army, have no other skills. We still have the ability to pick up junk." Qin Baoshan said: "We promote this style. As long as possible, we must do our best to do it well. If this plane If it can be repaired, then when you return, we can take off one in advance, search the sky, and if there is no problem, then you take off again, wouldn't it be safer?"
Hearing this, Major Kromlin nodded in satisfaction. That's right, he very much agrees with Qin Baoshan's last kindness. Fortunately, there were not so many officers on the plane because of an accident during the takeoff. If it is, the loss will be huge, which is difficult for Americans to accept.
"You want to restore this plane, I can help." Major Cromlin said.
Originally, as a pilot, Major Cromlin didn't think he could gain anything by visiting here. He just became a pilot, but he didn't expect to meet a skilled Eighth Route Army officer here. The technicians also led a group of craftsmen. With the help of the other party, the c-47 transport plane was repaired. Moreover, they were able to get on the horse and repair a crashed and damaged reconnaissance plane. It is really rare , This is simply a novel experience.
So, amidst such emotions, Major Cromlin started his experience of maintaining aircraft here. In a few days, he saw the level of the technicians of the Eighth Route Army. Perhaps, the tools they used were very Primitive, but they were able to use ingenious methods to solve many problems.
The wooden skeleton of the wing was made without any glue. The carpenters used weird mortise and tenon structures to intersperse them directly to form the skeleton of the wing, and it was quite firm.The outside of the skeleton is covered with a layer Sheepskin is used as a skin, and the effect is even better than canvas skin. Of course, it must not be comparable to aluminum alloy skin, but the Eighth Route Army does not have the ability to manufacture aluminum alloy. The glass of the cockpit was directly removed and turned into an open top, and the damaged propeller was replaced with a wooden propeller. This reconnaissance plane was repaired in this way!
Major Cromlin also did a lot of work, gave a lot of theoretical guidance, and accelerated the progress.
"I really didn't expect that you could do this." Major Kromlin looked at the repaired fighter and said, "You showed me a miracle."
"After this repair, we have also mastered the basic structure of the aircraft. As long as we have a qualified engine, we may be able to build an aircraft by ourselves." Qin Baoshan said.
This sentence is half-truth and half-false. In later generations, a farmer can buy materials on Taobao and build an airplane by himself, which shows that the difficulty of manufacturing an airplane is not great. However, it is not easy to manufacture an airplane that can be used in combat. .
In this era, the cost of aircraft is not high, and the manufacturing cost of an aircraft is similar to that of a tank. Therefore, the scale of aircraft during World War II is also tens of thousands. However, the technology required to manufacture aircraft is much higher than that of tanks. It is not easy to manufacture advanced fighter jets, and the Eighth Route Army has no such ability. An advanced fighter jet first needs an advanced engine. In this era, aircraft engine technology is rapidly improving. Before World War II, the engine was only a few hundred horsepower. By the end of World War II, the power of the engine had soared to a thousand More, even two thousand horsepower. However, even if there is an engine, it cannot be manufactured. Other avionics equipment, the entire airframe, etc., all require advanced technology to be built.
Qin Baoshan also knows that the Americans will not provide aircraft engines to their side, so it doesn't matter if they brag here. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
