My German Empire

"Oh, so many high-rise buildings!" Today's Chicago is clear over a clear sky, the bombing of the German bomber of the million meters, can't help but sigh the city below the city. Although the German bomber is generally equipped with radar sight, it has not been completely eliminated.

The foregoing said that Chicago was given one of the big fires for 70 years. After the tragedy end, currency, food, clothing and other items flow from the world into Chicago. With the help of all parties, Chicago people began to rebuild their homes with a very fast speed in the reflection of the fire. How to avoid the fire again, it will become the question of the primary consideration. After several disputes, I finally decided to use the reinforced cement to replace the original wooden structural house, thereby reducing the chances of fire. The design idea of ​​steel is the foundation for the emergence of the skyscrapers.

In 1885, the world's first skyscraper - family insurance building was built in Chicago, 42 meters high, a total of ten floors, and human buildings officially entered the skyscraper era. And this building also marks the rise of the "Chicago Architecture School".

At first, many scholars violently slammed this type of building lack of historical tradition, cultural heritage, difficult to board the elegant. However, it is undeniable that these high-rise buildings are also in line with economic high-speed development to buildings. With the development of the economy, the tide of modern architecture is unstoppable. The architecture of the Chicago School also drives the rapid development of the construction industry.

From the layout, the skyscrapers established by the future generations are almost all the Turn on Chicago, and Chicago is known as "the hometown of the skyscraper."

"That should be the futures exchange building."

This skyscraper was completed in 1930. Its height (approximately 184 meters) has made it the highest in Chicago after more than 30 years, until the 1968 Lake Heart Building built (about 196 meters). And it is not only a normal tall building, and this building is considered a masterpiece of an art deco design. The building itself is artistic decoration, sculpture and large stone carving, especially the goddess statue of the three-story building high, is quite well-known. For a long time, this building has always been a popular tourist attraction in the urban area of ​​Chicago, and many films with Chicago will also join this building.

"Prepare to bomb!"

The bomber's bombing door is slowly opened, exposing a neatly arranged bomb. Dulun Vice President did not fully guess, this German bomber carried more than just solidified gasoline bombs, but also more terrible aluminum hot bombs.

The cross-quasi-the-counter lock is locked below, and the bomb is full of the entire sky with the bomb of the bomb, whispering the entire sky, whizes to the ground below.

Of course, in this highly investment bomb, there is no need to say, it is true that it is true, it is a lucky luck.

boom! boom! boom!

With the two explosions of the two joints, a small mushroom cloud was made on the ground.

Only 50 ME-264D and 10 B-36 throwing a bomb in the urban area, and 200 ME-264D fly over the suburban industrial zone. Although workers in the industrial zone have all evacuated, those mechanical equipment will be inseparable.

As the dense bomb falls, the intensive explosion sounds, and a building is destroyed in the explosion. The 200 ME-264D bombers cast a thousand tons of solidified gasoline bullets and aluminum thermal bombs, and the large industrial area was almost destroyed.

The Chicago Industrial Zone is mainly Douglas aircraft (production military transport) and Pratt-Whitney (production aircraft engine). Many companies like to name the founder's family surname, the founders of Douglas aircraft company are Donald. Douglas, although not a pilot, Douglas is a heavyweight aviation star.

As for Pratt - Whitney, there are two "Prat-Whitney", "Francis Pratt and Amos Whitney and 1860 "Pleo" founded by the year, they are the earliest advocates and practitioners of mechanical equipment components. For many years, industrial production has contributed valuable technical foundations, measurement methods, and standard systems.

The other "Pu Hui" is Fredrick, Lenge, founded in 1925. The Lenge Renler is very high in the US aviation industry, is known as "people who make the US military flying."

In 1925, due to the design concept and the old people's family, Lunqler resigned from the original company, found the Puhui Machine Tool Company, explained the idea of ​​manufacturing air-cooled airplane engines. Puli Machine Tools immediately decided to authorize the use of the "Pu Hui" trademark to Lunqler, carry out engine research and development, and also gave a large initial fund of Lunqler.

On December 24, 1925, the first wind and cold engine R1340 "Wasp" in Pu Hui Company came out. This is an engine called "changing the US aviation industry". In 1929, the US Navy arranged two aircraft carriers "Saratoaga" and "Lexington", equipped with 200 equipped "Hornets" and "Humblebee" carrier machine for large-scale exercises. A total of 2,100 flying within three months, flying 6000 hours, the Popular engine did not have any malfunction, so as to write a thank you letter on the "Saratoa", thank you letter: I would like to thank these "trusted engines."

During the second-day World War II, the Popular and Authorized Cooperative Factory produced 36,3619 engine, with a total power of 6038 million horsepower (50% required for the US military), providing power for more than 70 aircraft, becoming the largest piston engine manufacturing in the United States. Business.

"God!" I heard the news that the Chicago industrial area was bombed, and Lunqler almost fainted. Although other cities are also branch, the industrial area of ​​Chicago is the largest production base of "Pu Hui" company. The loss caused by this bombing is simply uncomfortable! The factory can rebuild, and the destroyed components can also be re-produced, but that takes time. And even if it is rebuilt, who dares to guarantee that the German will visit again? ! If the Germans continue to bomb industrial areas in other cities, his "Pharma" company will be completely destroyed!

"These useless guys!" Lunqler cuished and curse. As for who, whoever, I am afraid that he knows himself.

At this time, his son Xiaonchler hurried in. "Father, I just got a message. The Congress decided to cut 40% of the production funds of Luhang aircraft, and Arnold commander leaving only P-51 fighters and B-17 bomber production!"
