For the past six months, Empress Catherine of Russia has felt like an eternity.
She was no longer interested in anything related to Tsarist Russia.
Ever since Jiang Tian flew away in his plane, this woman has been as if her soul had been taken away.
Every few hours, this woman would go to see Song Yingxing.
"Lord Song, when will my beloved Jiang Tian return?"
“I saw he had two women on the plane. Where was he going?”
"Half a year has passed in the blink of an eye, why hasn't he come back yet? What exactly is he trying to do?"
The saying "A day apart feels like three autumns" is very fitting for Catherine.
Catherine, this woman, also deeply understood what it meant to be consumed by unrequited love.
Ekaterina desperately wanted Song Yingxing to build her an airplane so she could fly it to find Jiang Tian.
Song Yingxing hadn't expected that Jiang Tian's departure would last for half a year without him returning.
He's been so bothered by Ekaterina these past few days that he has no idea how to deal with it.
"Your Majesty, I don't know when our lord will return, nor do I know where he has gone."
"Even if I build the airplane, I can't give it to you if we can't find our lord."
Jiang Tian had commissioned Song Yingxing to build 500 aircraft, which Song Yingxing had already completed long ago.
All of these planes were much larger than the one he had given to Jiang Tian, and each plane had four engines.
Each aircraft can carry a dozen or so soldiers, and can also be equipped with two cannons.
“Come on…” Song Yingxing waved to the pilots and soldiers who were preparing for the experiment.
"These 50 aircraft will be tested continuously for five days."
In addition to testing takeoff and landing, you also need to test firing in the air.
Song Yingxing had piloted an airplane and fired cannons in the air; firing cannons in the air was much better than firing cannons on the ground.
They fired the cannon in mid-air, with no cover whatsoever.
Firing cannons in the air means there are no blind spots at any angle.
With Song Yingxing's command.
The engines of the 50 aircraft parked on the lawn slowly started.
The pilots were the first to board the plane.
The cannons on both sides of the plane were aimed at the ground.
After all the pilots of these 50 aircraft were ready.
The 500 soldiers then quickly boarded the plane.
Soon, these huge planes were gliding rapidly forward across the grass.
These planes taxied for more than 200 meters on the grass before taking off.
Then, these planes flew higher and higher, ascending ever higher.
"Excellent, excellent. The overall quality of this second batch of aircraft is quite good. It really amazes me."
Song Yingxing held a telescope and looked into the distance. At this moment, he nodded in satisfaction.
Soon, the plane reached the target area.
Immediately afterwards, the booming sound of cannons rang out continuously.
The 50 aircraft continuously fired around the target.
Deafening explosions rang out one after another.
Because it fires from the air, it has a longer range and greater power.
The target was blown to pieces.
Jiang Tian commissioned Song Yingxing to build these 500 aircraft.
It can carry 1,000 cannons.
Each cannon was equipped with 50 shells.
Each sortie can carry 50,000 shells.
If they were to fly over the target and launch a fierce attack on the European army...
It's enough to terrify the opponent.
The court adjutant to Catherine the Great.
Those people didn't have binoculars, but they all shaded their eyes with their hands and looked into the distance.
They saw that the plane was flying so fast that ordinary warhorses could not keep up with it.
They saw fire coming from the planes again. The shells kept exploding.
"If Jiang Tian's forces were equipped with so many aircraft and launched an attack on our Tsarist Russian army, we would have no chance of stopping them."
"Your Majesty, we must guard against Jiang Tian's possible sneak attack. I think we should blow up all those things they call airplanes, just in case."
When Ekaterina heard this, she almost burst into a tirade.
"I am the one who is going to marry Jiang Tian. Are you saying these things here just to sow discord?"
“Listen up, all of you! If I marry Jiang Tian, he will definitely be able to guarantee the long-term peace and stability of our Tsarist Russia.”
"Don't have such bad ideas again, or I'll be rude to you. Do you all understand?"
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.
Jiang Tian's plane had already shocked everyone present.
They had also seen Jiang Tian's team.
Although Jiang Tian's main force was not large.
However, their team is basically invincible and has never been defeated. So far, they have never heard of Jiang Tian's team suffering any defeat.
A day and a half later, Jiang Tian's plane landed smoothly on the grassy area where Song Yingxing was.
Jiang Tian nodded in satisfaction when he saw the 500 planes neatly lined up on the grass.
When Song Yingxing saw Jiang Tian piloting the plane to land, he quickly went to greet him.
"We pay our respects to our lord." Song Yingxing quickly knelt down.
One by one, the soldiers knelt respectfully before Jiang Tian.
"We pay our respects to our lord."
Jiang Tian pointed to the 500 planes.
"Song Yingxing really didn't expect you to do this so well. Not only did you help me build 500 airplanes, but each one of them is much bigger than my one."
Song Yingxing stood up with a smile.
"My lord, there are 2,500 aircraft and another 500 aircraft near your castle."
“My lord, in the past six months, I have built a total of 1,000 airplanes for you.”
Each of these aircraft has four engines.
Each aircraft could carry ten soldiers, two cannons, and 100 rounds of ammunition.
With a smile, Song Yingxing took Jiang Tian's hand and headed straight for the large airplane.
"My lord, I have not failed your trust. I have even improved these cannons."
These cannons were all 75mm caliber, with lighter shells and greater power. Furthermore, these breech-loading cannons could fire at a higher rate.
75mm gun.
This is definitely an Italian cannon.
Jiang Tian was utterly shocked.
He and Song Yingxing boarded a plane together.
When he boarded the plane, Jiang Tian was immediately shocked by what he saw inside.
Song Yingxing, this guy is proactive and serious in everything he does, and the interior of this plane is decorated simply yet elegantly.
Jiang Tian had visited some old-fashioned airplanes, but those airplanes were not as good as Song Yingxing's.
"My lord, each of our planes is equipped with four engines."
When Song Yingxing finished speaking, his face remained completely expressionless, showing no sign of pride.
