Daming: The system rejected my request for salted fish

Chapter 1099

"Actually, the height it climbs isn't a big deal. What's really impressive is its speed. It can cover enormous distances in a short period of time."

"For example, this time when I received the news that you were in danger, I was in Suzhou City and it took me less than a day to rush over."

"Helicopters can cross mountains and rivers, travel in a straight line, and can cover distances of more than a thousand kilometers in one go."

Zhu Biao was familiar with the units that Wei Wu habitually used, which was why he was stunned after hearing it.

However, Zhu Gang didn't understand what Wei Wu meant, so he asked directly.

"Duke Zhenguo, you said that we can cross a thousand kilometers in one go. What does this kilometer mean? Is it the same as a mile?"

Hearing Zhu Gang's question, Wei Wu remembered that Zhu Gang and Zhu Biao were different, so he began to explain.

"Kilometers are the unit of measurement I'm used to. The units used in the Ming Dynasty are chi, bu, zhang, and li, which are difficult to calculate."

"And I use decimal millimeters, centimeters, decimeters and meters, and then kilometers. The kilometers here are the same as kilometers."

"To convert it, one zhang in the Ming Dynasty is equal to a little over 3.3 meters, and one li, 180 zhang, is roughly equal to 558 meters."

Zhu Gang still understood simple arithmetic problems, so he calculated it in his mind before speaking:

"That means one kilometer is roughly a multiple of one mile. So, this helicopter can fly nearly 1,800 miles in a day?"

"The ancient saying of traveling a thousand miles a day is just a metaphor, but this helicopter can actually do that, and even travel far beyond a thousand miles!!"

"And it possesses such terrifyingly powerful firearms. If it were to be used in a surprise attack on the battlefield..."

"Isn't it like taking an enemy general's life in the midst of a huge army as easy as taking something out of a bag?!"

Wei Wu also thought about using helicopters on the battlefield. Even if it does not rely on firepower, it has its own deterrent effect.

After all, the mainstream military force of this era was cavalry, and facing an enemy that could fly in the sky would be terrifying.

But Wei Wu just thought about this casually without any in-depth research, but Zhu Gang's words gave him a reminder.

Yup!

Rather than using armed helicopters to waste ammunition on the battlefield, it is better to carry out decapitation missions by surprise.

The general of an army is the soul of the army. An army without a general to command it will be a loose sand and unable to win a battle.

As long as you find the enemy general's tent and fly there in the middle of the night, you don't have to worry about being discovered.

It was pitch black in the wild, and no one could see what was in the sky. Even if they could hear the sound of the propeller, it would be useless.

The enemy had never seen a helicopter and had no idea what made the sound. At most, they would just be on high alert.

Once the helicopter approaches, a few rockets fired from a distance can easily blow up the entire military tent.

Thinking of this, Wei Wu immediately made a decision in his heart that if he had the chance, he must try out the effect.

However, if Wei Wu could think of this, then Crown Prince Zhu Biao could naturally think of it as well, and his idea was even more extreme.

However, his knowledge of helicopters was limited, so he simply looked at Wei Wu and asked.

"Xiao Wu! What the Third Brother said is true. Using this helicopter for a surprise attack can indeed be very effective. So I want to ask you something."

Hearing this, Wei Wu laughed, then waved his hand and said:

"Brother, if you have anything to say, just ask directly. There's no need for us two brothers to be so polite."

"Haha, then I'll ask."

Zhu Biao responded casually, then pondered for a moment before speaking his thoughts.

"Since helicopters can be used on the battlefield, then even if there is no fighting, can they also surprise attack the enemy?"

"For example, fly directly from here to the Northern Yuan Royal City, and then use that weapon to fire at the bedroom of the Northern Yuan pseudo-emperor!"

After hearing what Zhu Biao said, Wei Wu opened his mouth wide and it took him a while to come back to his senses.

Damn, brother is indeed a veteran Tangyuan maker in the Ming Dynasty. His thinking and vision are much better than mine!

I was just thinking of using a helicopter to behead the local generals, but he was planning to directly raid their lair and confiscate their property!

However, to be honest, with the Mi-171's endurance and weapon system, it seems that this can really be done.

So after a brief moment of surprise, Wei Wu nodded and responded to Zhu Biao's question.

"It can indeed be done, but are you sure you want to do this, brother?"

As Wei Wu finished speaking, he saw a cold light flashing in Zhu Biao's eyes, and said in a cold voice:

"Of course we have to do this, Xiao Wu. You don't know how hard it has been for your brother to be chased by these Beiyuan soldiers."

"If it weren't for your Impermanence Squad protecting me, I'm afraid I would have become the same as the God of War you mentioned before."

"He was captured by the Northern Yuan soldiers and made into some kind of foreign student. After all, I, your elder brother, am the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty!"

"If I had no chance to seek revenge, I would have endured this matter, but with you helping me, how can I swallow this anger?"

Having said that, Zhu Biao reached out and patted Wei Wu on the shoulder, then continued:

"Of course, it's not entirely for personal revenge. More importantly, I know that the Northern Yuan Dynasty is not stable, and many people have ulterior motives."

"The current pseudo-emperor, Toghon Temur, has only been on the throne for a few years and does not yet hold all the power in his hands."

"If we kill him, the struggle for power within the Northern Yuan will inevitably lead to chaos, and they won't have time to disrupt the Ming Dynasty."

When Zhu Biao said this, a sneer suddenly appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"That evil monk named Yao Guangxiao has defected to the Northern Yuan Dynasty and has been plotting and trying every possible way to disrupt the Ming Dynasty!"

"Once the Northern Yuan is in chaos, no matter how sophisticated his plans are, they can only be implemented after the Northern Yuan is completely stabilized."

"Not only will this move allow me to vent my anger, but it will also disrupt them, giving the Institute of Science and Technology time to build more weapons, right?"

The taste is right, now the taste is finally right!

Wei Wu had thought it was a little strange before. It was not Zhu Biao's style to be so obsessed with personal grudges.

Now, after listening to Zhu Biao's explanation, he instantly understood. This was not a personal vendetta, but a strategy that killed three birds with one stone.

The key point is that Wei Wu also agreed very much, so after Zhu Biao finished speaking, he immediately gave an answer.

"Then let's do it! But, big brother, do you know where the capital of the Northern Yuan Dynasty is now? How far away is it?"
