Rebirth of the Spanish Empire

"But, I know, my best guess is that the future must belong to the era of air."

Shocking! Although Alfonso mentioned air power just now, he just thought it was Alfonso's general idea, but now it is like that. This is clearly the kind that has been finally confirmed. No matter how others say it, it is just a kind of thing. Opinion, but as the highest military commander in Spain, the King of Spain, and one of the overlords of Europe, although he is at the tail end, his opinion itself represents not only his own opinion, but the opinions of tens of millions of people. Every decision he makes will affect the lives of tens of millions of people, even the whole of Europe and even the world. Why, if it is true that air power is the most important thing in the future as he said, then the struggle for hegemony will inevitably begin in the air, and As the king of Spain and the earliest theorist of air power, how could Spain under the leadership of Alfonso lack the feast of manufacturing air weapons? And if the Spanish Empire can really achieve air hegemony in the future, what will happen to the world and European countries? It will be a very big threat. To put it simply, Spain's every move will affect the world's nerves.

Although Nikolai doesn't really think that such a situation will occur, after all, just look at the current aircraft with a range of only 400 kilometers. Don't forget, even if the range of aircraft from other countries is not that long, it is not too short. Maybe it's also this distance, especially in countries such as the United States and the United Kingdom where aircraft were produced earlier. Is it possible to gain air superiority just by having a flight range of 400 kilometers? Even if it is, it is only a short distance of 200 kilometers, and a round trip is 400 kilometers. However, the ocean is so big that airplanes cannot fly across it, and even the English Channel cannot cross it, so this kind of air rights does not seem very big. Has advantages. On the contrary, the navy can travel around the world. This contrast shows that sea power is more advantageous.

How could Alfonso not know that if you look at it from the current perspective, you will know that the navy has the advantage. Why does Alfonso need such laborious explanation and analysis? Of course, he won't be looking for something to do. The purpose is obvious, that is, he wants to use Nikola Tesla's mind to provide him with advice on updating the engine faster. The piston engine has its limit, and the history of his previous life tells him , the application of piston propeller engines in aircraft was not replaced by gas turbine engines with greater power and good high-speed performance until the end of World War II. And if he feels that aviation can really become a new territory for hegemony in the future, then I believe he will understand his urgency better. By then, nuclear research will accelerate. Of course, before that, uranium must first be Let’s talk about the ore transportation, but there is a world-class uranium mine in the Northern Territory of Australia, which was not long after independence, and it is 10,000 tons in size. .

He had arranged for people there to buy it, and the reason was that the nearby coal mine was a cover.

"Nicholas, what you need to know is that many people thought this way a long time ago, and they still think so until now. But if you think about it, why is the level of human science and technology changing with each passing day? It is not caused by human imagination. What happened next, we can take a longer view. The four engines I mentioned last time can at least reach a range of 2,600-7,000 kilometers, which means that it can reach a distance of more than 1,300 kilometers in a straight line. In addition, if the carrying capacity is What will happen to the attack power of the aircraft when it reaches 8 or 9 tons, and what will happen if the number increases?"

Nikolai was a little moved. A plane with 8 or 9 tons of explosives could cause chaos in the Portuguese capital Lisbon near Spain. If it had ten planes and four engines, it could make Paris wait for a complete commotion. If it were composed of one hundred four engines, it would no longer be imaginable for people in Paris to flee in all directions. And if the number reaches more than 500, then the Parisians will be very lucky, because by then they will find that their government has raised the white flag and surrendered, and they, ordinary citizens, will no longer suffer casualties. ….

"What if you experts change the engine again, for example to another type of engine? The maximum horsepower of the current piston engine is about 80 horsepower, and four units are 320 horsepower. But if we change it How about increasing the horsepower to more than 10,000 horsepower? To tell you the truth, although it is not yet in production, the engine research and production department of the imperial Audi company has come up with such a complete production theory, that is, it can be developed using a turboprop. The new generation engine is even more powerful, with a minimum of more than 10,000 horsepower. This has been confirmed by all evaluation experts. Think about it, a new engine with 10,000 horsepower and a piston engine with 80 horsepower. By then, the speed can be increased to at least 900 kilometers per hour, and four times the speed will increase the carrying capacity. By then, let alone Lisbon, at least the flight will be able to take off directly from Madrid, and we can directly bomb the skies over Europe. All are possible. With 320 horsepower, the maximum range can reach 7,000 kilometers. That is to say, if you halve it back and forth, you can have a safe bombing range of 3,500 kilometers. If multiplied by more than 30 times, it is enough to circle the earth and come back. .You can also bring nearly 20 tons of explosives."

Nikolai Terrass was frightened. This was comparable to the height of the nuclear weapons that His Majesty the King mentioned last time they discussed. Wait, 10,000 horsepower. Nikolai Terrass stood up and looked at His Majesty, he was shocked.

"You know, that's what I want to say. I hope our nuclear weapons can come out soon, so that as long as we can have them in hand, we will not be afraid of any country in the world threatening us, Nicholas, you know , I am not a cruel person, believe me, I will bring more peace and fairness to the world, so that people all over the world will live better, at least the people around us will not encounter fatal disasters when we How powerless we appear, this is all based on the premise that our own interests have not been harmed."

An aircraft with 10,000 horsepower is already a long-range bomber. Even the B2 stealth bomber of the United States during the Cold War was about this horsepower. It will be a node of Alfonso's global strike plan. As long as this engine is developed and Nikola Terras's nuclear weapons are used, no country in the world will dare to touch the Spanish Empire. No There will be.

Nicola Terras was truly convinced. He was surprised to find that since he saw Alfonso, every mental rhythm of his mind would be diverted away from him. His resonance, just like this time, seemed impossible, but in the end it made him believe what the other party said. Is this where his charm lies? It is said that many great kings and rulers always have a convincing charm that can make their subordinates willingly sacrifice everything, including their lives, to them. Nicholas Terrass, who used to be a scientific worker, was very fond of it. He didn't believe it, because he believed that the created data was more convincing, but now he believed that if a person's charm reached a certain level, every word he said would be extremely convincing, and he didn't even have to The data is even worse when the reality is before your eyes.

Alfonso saw Nicholas Terras's relaxed expression, and he knew that he had succeeded. A person's psychology is the most difficult thing to conquer, even more difficult than conquering a city, especially these scientific workers, who use science and technology to The cultivated mind itself is tenacious and difficult to shake. Especially when they have set their sights on the right direction, Nicholas Terrass is the leader among them. Such a person has a stronger heart. Fortunately, he has already prepared things including data, and now he finally got it. Return. ….

"I was convinced by you. I have to say that His Majesty is a real orator. Okay, I understand what the King means. When the base and laboratory are completed, I will call my former friends here. Don't worry. , they are all very loyal people, and they are also the most loyal people to science. If we work hard, as long as we tinker with it, then we will find some people who will be remembered in history forever, right?" Yue said In the end, Nikolatras felt his body trembling more and more. Only now did he realize that the emergence of this research was not just a simple science, but would also be of great military and economic significance to the world. In this way existence, will his inventor still not be remembered by the world?

Alfonso certainly knew what a great invention this was. Its success would bring historic changes to the world, including the military. Nuclear weapons would ensure personal safety, and nuclear power plants would ensure energy security. The impact that its emergence has had on mankind is immeasurable. At least because of the emergence of nuclear weapons, wars between big countries have stopped. Instead, agent countries and small countries have intervened, so that the world's man-made war disasters are minimized. , and at the same time, this is also true in the decades since nuclear weapons began, and the world has truly entered a period of peace.
