"This is the schedule for this visit, and there is a list of follow-up personnel." Captain Horst Young handed a document to Colonel Eugene von Davidson. "Have you confirmed everything?" The colonel took out his monocle from his pocket and clamped it on his right eye.
"Yes, there is a reply from the head of state at the end. I still need you to sign here." Captain Yang took out another document from his briefcase.
"What is this again?" Colonel Davidson took the file.
"Marshal's visitor records this week, for archiving purposes." Captain Yang replied lightly.
"I understand, administrative procedures." Davidson took a pen from his chest pocket and signed his name on the signature file of the document.
The colonel knows exactly where this thing ends up, but doesn’t think there is anything wrong with it. It has nothing to do with trust. The colonel believes that certain procedures are necessary for national security considerations. Including himself, all mission personnel visiting Asia are under the surveillance of the imperial counterintelligence department, and every meeting and meeting that is not on the schedule will be recorded in detail.
"Thank you, sir." Captain Yang put the file back in the briefcase.
Horst Young didn't seem to want to leave in a hurry, he stood respectfully beside the colonel with a briefcase.
"Are there any questions? Captain." Davidson took off his glasses and looked at the officer suspiciously.
"What does the Marshal think of that report?" Horst Young asked in a low voice.
"Which report are you referring to?" Davidson raised his eyebrows.
"The report of Captain von Stuffenberg." Captain Yang looked to the side of the corridor, turned his face and replied.
"Very shocked, yes, very shocked." Colonel Davidson replied.
"Is it just shock?" Captain Yang looked at the colonel's eyes.
"Still very angry, the Marshal is going to negotiate with the Chinese government himself." Davidson replied.
"So..." Captain Yang wanted to continue.
"Enough, Captain, you are now inquiring about the affairs of a senior officer. I remember this is not within your authority. I think I have told you enough." Davidson interrupted coldly Question from Captain Yang.
"I'm sorry, Colonel, I'm just a little curious, I will never do this in the future." Captain Yang apologized respectfully.
"I hope so, now you can go, Captain."
"Then, goodbye, sir. Hi! Reinhardt!" Captain Yang raised his hand in salute.
"Hi! Reinhardt!" The colonel was polite.
"Kitten, this is a cat litter. The signal is very good." A clear call from the base command post came over the radio.
"This is a kitten. Everything is flying smoothly at the moment. No abnormalities are found. It's over." Speru turned his face and looked at the wingman behind.
It was a bf109 with the entire fuselage painted in scarlet red. Speru knew that it was on the other side of the landline at the moment, and another 109 was followed in almost the same position, but the aircraft was painted in sky blue. .
"Kitten, this is a cat litter. You should be able to receive the signal from the dt7 navigation station. Adjust the frequency to the third preset level, and it's over." The command post sent an instruction.
"The adjustment is complete and the signal is very strong. Please inform Lieutenant Colonel Dewar and we will arrive on time. Let him prepare the bottle of Bordeaux, which has been treasured for five years, and I will be happy to taste it with him."
"Okay, I will tell Lieutenant Colonel Dewar, I believe he will be happy to meet you, over."
"Thank you, I think that's the case too, cat litter." Speru adjusted the radio frequency to the position for inter-machine communication.
"White Number Three, how is the situation on your side." Sporu turned his head and looked at the red wingman.
"Very good, sir." Lieutenant Nemo's excited voice came from the headset.
"White number four, where is your side?"
"Everything is normal, White One." Lieutenant Sara replied coolly.
Marshal Brumberg did not break his promise. After returning to French Indochina from Chongqing, the Sporu Flying Brigade quickly got a new car.
It’s just that when they rushed to the airport enthusiastically, what they saw beside the runway was not the imaginary Fokker Wolf, but a group of brand-new Messerschmitts with shiny paint and reflections. Special 109.
"Your Fokker fighter jets, the Air Force is still trying to deploy. It may take another month, so let’s fly this kind of aircraft for now. Don’t tell me that only a few months have passed. I forgot how to fly her.” At the scene of the delivery of the plane, the Major General of the Gluck Air Force who had just been transferred from China joked.
Speaking of this, Speru and her men can only accept this fact, and out of respect for their superiors, they have to look very satisfied. Of course, these pilots did not forget how to fly the 109. In fact, the first effective result of many people was achieved on this fighter.
But this is not the Bruno or Emily they drove back then, but the latest improved model of the Air Force. So the pilot can only learn from scratch how to control this new aircraft.
The result was beyond everyone’s expectations. This new 109 has very good performance. Although many technical parameters are still not as fast as the 190, if the correct tactics are used, Speru believes that it can shoot down anything she has seen. A fighter, even including the new Japanese model encountered over Chongqing.
This batch of aircraft was originally intended to be used by the French colonial air force. Petain spent a lot of money on this, and only withdrew fifty from the Luftwaffe’s order to replace the batch of antiques from the colonial flight team. .
The original French Indochina flight team had some combat effectiveness in addition to nine Moran Sanière m.s406 fighters, and what was left was a pile of garbage that was only World War I level.
Because of the lack of advanced tactical trainers, the technical level of the colonial pilots is also lackluster. French colonial pilots do not lack the courage to fight, but if they are allowed to fly a kite-like thing to fight in the sky, I believe that anyone with a brain will not have the confidence to win.
The most direct enemy of the French Indochina Air Force now is the Siam Air Force across the western border.
The Royal Siam Air Force seems to be a very young unit. It was not separated from the army until 1937 and became an independent army. But in terms of qualifications, they were one of the first troops in Southeast Asia to enter the sky.
Many of the senior leaders of the Siamese military have received Western education, so they have a strong ability to accept new things. When the world entered the aviation era~IndoMTL.com~ they quickly accepted Western air combat ideas.
Throughout the 1920s, because Siam joined the Allied Powers in World War I, the relations between France and Siam began to ease. Perhaps in order to restore the relationship between the two countries, the French generously provided Siam with their latest aircraft and were also responsible for training including fighter pilots.
But in the 1930s, because of the famous coup d'etat, the political situation in Siam changed, and the nationalist trend in Siam began to rise, and the relationship between France and Siam also deteriorated sharply.
Siam no longer purchases aircraft from the French, but instead focuses on the Americans. The main equipment of the Siam Air Force is basically purchased from the United States during that period.
The Royal Siam Air Force has now been renamed the Royal Thai Air Force, and according to the current situation, it is very likely that it will be changed back.
This airpower is second to none in Southeast Asian countries. It currently has more than 150 aircraft of various types, but most of them are biplanes whose performance has completely fallen behind. For example, the Walter Company’s o2u pirate reconnaissance bomber in the United States, the Royal Siam Air Force has seventy V93s variants of this aircraft, and the last s in the number is for Siam.
They also own twelve Hawker III biplane fighters and 24 Hawker 75n fighters. These two aircraft are currently the main force of the Siamese Air Force fighter force. Most of the pilots in the Siam Air Force have been trained in the United Kingdom and Japan. Because of the close cooperation between the Siamese Navy and the Japanese Navy, the Japanese side has trained 200 pilots for Siam, and the Royal Siamese Navy has also sent Japan to Japan. They bought the water reconnaissance aircraft, submarines and surface warships they needed urgently.
