Chapter 439 Chapter 439 Kirov Airship

"It's spectacular! It's shocking!" Looking up at the moment when the hard-shell airship was parked in the open space, the special envoy of the Dorne Kingdom didn't know what to say.

They never thought that one day, human war machines could develop to such a huge extent, nor did they imagine that the sky is also a part of war.

It is not new to use hot air balloons to observe enemy positions, but because of power and safety issues, hot air balloons are only auxiliary military equipment from beginning to end.

But now, a brand new powerful weapon that seems to be able to change the mode of war appeared in front of everyone present.

This is the first time in the whole world that there is a weapon that can attack the enemy from the sky and really pose a threat to the enemy!This is a weapon that subverts people's cognition!It is also the "ultimate weapon" that everyone desires!
Every time the Datang Group launches a new weapon, it is enough to change the rules of war. This makes everyone love and hate. What they love is that more powerful weapons can make it easier for them to win the war. These advanced weapons come out of pocket.

"The preparation process of filling gas is still immature, so the price of this equipment is still very expensive." Tang Mo stood in front of the airship and complained to everyone who came to this exhibition: "All weapons are It's flawed, isn't it?"

After finishing speaking, he spread his hands again, and continued: "However, it is worthwhile to obtain a powerful bombing machine that can directly attack the opponent's hinterland and destroy the enemy's industrial system."

He is right. Representatives of various countries are thinking about whether it is worthwhile to equip this weapon.

Expensive is definitely expensive, because the weapons and equipment of the Datang Group are not cheap.

There is a reason why it is precious!As long as you buy the advanced weapons of Datang Group, you can win!This is simply certain, and there is no need to question it.

Just like this time, the airship, as a decisive weapon that can carry a large number of bombs and go directly to the enemy's strategic location to attack, can definitely play a decisive role.

Today, all countries in the world are striving to complete their own industrialization, which itself is also the result of Datang Group's efforts.

All countries are building their own steel plants and building their own heavy industry bases, and these important strategic locations are often also transportation hubs for railway and sea transportation.

Even in some aspects, these densely populated cities, most of which are valuable technical talents, are much more important than the royal city.

Once such strategic locations, heavy industrial bases, and core factories producing weapons and ammunition are destroyed, a country's strategic potential will also be exhausted.

Therefore, the airship provides an option to end the war early at the lowest cost and the fastest speed!

Those who start wars are all gamblers. Since there is a lottery with small gains, how can they not be tempted?

Imagine that dozens of airships fly over the enemy's heavy industrial area, and then drop bombs, and then the enemy's factories will stop working for several weeks, and the supply of ammunition, the production of weapons, and the replenishment of materials will all stop.

Once such a hysteresis tactic is successful, it can determine the outcome of the front line!And defeating an industrial country will bring much more profit than defeating a backward traditional agricultural kingdom!
Now everyone has understood the addition of industrial zones to the country's strength. Once you can occupy the enemy's industrial zones, you can not only weaken the enemy immediately, but also strengthen yourself!
Therefore, once the decisive battle between the two industrial countries is decided, the winning side will double its strength and even get the chance to win the world!
No one wanted to lose such an opportunity. Compared with such an attractive opportunity, tens of millions of gold coins seemed worthless.

"So, Mr. Tang, how much does your Kirov airship sell for?" the special envoy of the Kingdom of Susas asked stammeringly.

He also didn't know why Tang Mo would name this airship Kirov Airship, a name that is very awkward and not very loud.

In his opinion, this kind of bombing airship can be called a flying shark, which makes people feel domineering!Look at that gaping bloody mouth and those menacing eyes!This is simply the perfect air weapon!

Of course, it would be more perfect if the huge dragon head emblem in the middle of the airship was replaced with the flag of the Kingdom of Sussus.

"Building such an airship is very troublesome. Its structure is very complicated. It requires sophisticated equipment and consumes expensive new materials at the same time..." Tang Mo said without shame. He knew that soon all countries would produce their own airships. It's not that complicated.

But Tang Mo can provide part of the stock, and Tang Mo's airship is indeed more advanced in terms of structural design and power system, which other countries have nothing to say.

So Tang Mo can offer a painful price, but he doesn't have to worry that no one will pay for his airship: "Therefore, an airship is 30 gold coins."

"Hiss..." Although they had made huge profits in the war, many special envoys were still frightened by the price.

Even for the wealthy Nanla Empire, it is not easy to spend millions of gold coins to buy an airship.

What's more, the Datang Group has launched too many weapons. They were still desperately purchasing the Bunas-class ironclad ships before. How can they have so much money to buy airships now?
But fortunately, isn't Mirage going to pay some war reparations?It's almost exactly the price of an airship, plus the money and goods deducted from the previous looting of the mirage fleet, adding some money to buy a few more ships, thinking about it will not be so painful.

After all, you just "won" a war, didn't you?They all got some benefits, didn't they?As a result... the money was taken out and sent to the Datang Group before it was settled.

Thinking about it, I really feel aggrieved. Every time a war is won, the profits go to the Datang Group, and I have been updating weapons here...

In the end, I didn't save much gold coins, but I replaced all my flintlock guns with Mauser 98K. I didn't even have the money to repair the palace on my side, but I was diligent in repairing the railway, and it was hundreds of kilometers away in a blink of an eye!
"It's cheaper to buy more, I'm in charge... 29!" Tang Mo gave up a huge profit with a wave of his hand: "Don't think that I made a lot, it's almost like giving it away for free."

"In order for buyers to use this advanced weapon independently, we will help build a gas-filling preparation factory, transfer the technology, and provide supporting bomb production technology, help build related factories, select sites to build airship bases, and train The driver and the commander... Counting the research and development costs, I may lose money..." He counted his own costs solemnly, and made many people understand why this new weapon is so expensive.

Indeed, compared with a battleship, it does not seem to have much real material.But in fact, compared with ten Apple phones and a van, isn’t there any real material?The fantasy is that mobile phones are more expensive, and it is easier to break them.

In addition to the airship that has already flown to Dongwan Island, there are dozens of such huge monsters on Long Island—as long as the other party pays, Tang Mo can deliver the goods immediately.

It is not difficult to produce such an airship that looks huge but does not have much dry goods, at least it is much easier than producing the Yucheng-class battleship that looks like a solid iron egg.

Hearing that Tang Mo was so "generous", these special envoys could only honestly pay the bill.

The most active person this time, unexpectedly, was the special envoy of the Kingdom of Susas.Because the Susas Kingdom contributed the least in the previous wars and saved money to buy naval warships, they were very generous.

Because they feel that this new weapon is their chance to catch up with other countries!The Kingdom of Susas has no sea frontiers, and the air force will be their "second navy" and their trump card to defeat the enemy!

"We, the Kingdom of Susas, hope to purchase 35 airships... the total price is 1015 million gold coins..." The Sussist envoy came and shocked everyone: "I hope Mr. Tang can give us a more favorable price... such as , round up an integer?"

"It should be, 1000 million gold coins!" Tang Mo generously gave up another 15 gold coins - a few years ago, his workshop was packaged and sold, and he couldn't sell this "fraction".

When a person possesses an offensive weapon that cannot be defended, other countries will obviously be unable to sit still.

"The Kingdom of Dorne hopes to purchase 20 of these Kirov airships...can we get them in stock?" Dorne's special envoy asked eagerly.

He didn't even negotiate the price, but focused on the delivery of the airship. As we all know, the delivery time of Datang Group's armored warships has to wait in line for a year or even two years. Many countries have given money. Now I haven't seen the Ironclad yet...

The special envoys chattered and began to compete for bids, and the atmosphere suddenly became active. Tang Mo casually handed over the work to Harry who stood aside.

He doesn't care so much about business matters now. What he cares more about now is a terrifying existence that may be called the Great Tang Empire in the future.

Soon, the Nanla Empire ordered 15 airships, the Dorne Kingdom ordered 20, Susas bought 35, the Poplar Kingdom bought 10, the Pine Kingdom bought 10, and the Dwarf Ice Kingdom bought 20 ships.

The Kingdom of Wright really couldn't afford that much money this time, so it could only honestly buy 5 symbolically, just to make up for it.

Because most of their naval operations this time overlapped with the Datang Group's navy near Bunas, they did not plunder many mirage transport ships. In addition, they had already owed too much credit for the previous development. Wright VII really took No money to follow up.
