LNMTL needs user funding to survive Read More

The international arms sales order always filled various pits, if not reserve several to increase the payment project, that certainly is not a qualified arms merchant. 国际军购订单从来都充满了各种坑,要是不预留几个增项付费项目,那一定不是一名合格的军火商。 Relatively speaking, Vienna government seller the conscience, has not done the matter on the airship very much, even the spare parts bestowed a big pile. 相对而言,维也纳政府这个卖家已经很良心了,没有在飞艇上搞事情,连零配件都赠送了一大堆。 However again how conscience, must open unavoidably attached increases a business, this time is no exception. 不过再怎么良心,也免不了要开辟附属增项业务,这次也不例外。 Facts showed, transporting the airship was also delivers the strength to be greatly good not only, but also needed the security. 事实证明,运输飞艇也不光是运载力大就行了,还需要安全保障。 Facing the airplane of enemy, transported the survival capability of airship is too low, must have the fighter escort. 面对敌人的飞机,运输飞艇的生存能力太低了,必须要有战斗机护航。 Very regrettable, poorly compared with the Russia government, cannot play the air force big on new product. Only has outside a support facade air formation merely, cannot undertake the escort heavy responsibility. 很遗憾,穷比的俄国政府,玩儿不起空军这种高大上的新产物。仅仅只有一支撑门面的飞行编队外,根本就承担不起护航重任。 If not for opposite Japanese forces similarly are the poor ratio, the aircraft equipment number is also scarce, the Russian force has suffered a loss. 若不是对面的日军同样是穷比,飞机装备数量同样稀少,俄军早就吃大亏了。 Now owes greatly has not eaten, however the frontline transportation airship had been shot down two, the airship transport team is halted to do business. 现在大亏是没怎么吃,但是前线的运输飞艇已经被击落两艘,以至于飞艇运输队都被迫暂停营业。 Is by enters from the ancient capital thriftily extravagantly easy, is entered extravagantly thriftily difficult. The Russian force is also no exception. 自古都是“由俭入奢易,由奢入俭难”。俄军也不能例外。 Without the airship transport team time, everyone also has no feeling, now had, has more than enough suddenly, the frontline military officers naturally could not sit still. 没有飞艇运输队的时候,大家还没有什么感觉,现在有了,又突然用不了,前线的军官们自然坐不住了。 Must know since the Russo-Japanese War has broken out, the Russian force was being pressed hitting by the Japanese, to the vigorous development of smuggling trade, as well as after the airship transport team joins, changed the dispirited potential. 要知道自从日俄战争爆发以来,俄军就被日本人压着打,一直到走私贸易的蓬勃发展,以及飞艇运输队加入后,才扭转了颓废之势。 The auspicious day less than several days, is given to shut off now, the Russian force high level naturally cannot endure. 好日子没过几天,现在又被人给切断了,俄军高层自然是不能忍。 By the influence of butterfly effect, dozens years of Russia that was the war was unceasing recently, military officer level pull-up a scale. 受蝴蝶效应的影响,最近几十年俄国那是大战不断,连带着军官水平都拉升了一个档次。 The expertise level, is the operational experience, compared with many that the original space and time must enrich. 无论是专业知识水平,还是作战经验,都比原时空要丰富的多。 For getting it over and done solves the problem, Far East Area Russian force Headquarters decide the denial of the air, and made the perfect combat plan, now on bad air force. 为了一劳永逸的解决问题,远东地区俄军司令部决定夺取制空权,并且制定了完善的作战计划,现在就差空军了。 Theoretically, Russian Empire can also make the fighter aircraft, and many high performances independent research and development product. 理论上来说,俄罗斯帝国也是能够建造战机的,并且还有多款性能优越的“自主研发”产品。 Properly speaking, should first consider the enterprise. It is a pity that these superior product, has all kinds of insufficiency. 按理来说,应该优先照顾自家企业的。遗憾的是这些“优越产品”,都有各种各样的不足。 Not is only the spare parts must import, produces the assembly, must seek the overseas big plant OEM. 不光是零配件要进口,就连生产组装,都要寻求国外大厂代工。 Does not have the means that business everyone of money-making to snatch, business no one of the losing money asked. 没有办法,赚钱的买卖人人抢,赔钱的生意无人问。 In Tsar government pocket poor, being incapable massive capital air force, civil has not popularized, naturally no one invests the airplane plant, even if the assembly plant. 沙皇政府兜里穷,无力大规模建设空军,民用又没有普及,自然没人投资飞机生产厂,哪怕是组装厂。 So-called domestic product, produced a designer of powerful and unconstrained style, even the design is own is indefinite. 所谓的国产,也就产了一个天马行空的设计师,甚至连设计是不是自己的都不确定。 Nothing accident/surprise, as one of the quasi industrialized countries, Russian Empire similarly is also a knockoff great nation. 没有任何意外,作为准工业化国家之一,俄罗斯帝国同样也是一个山寨大国。 But others optimize the product performance, or is the reducing production cost, either, re-equips according to the local cultural convention aesthetically. 只不过别人都是优化产品性能,或者是降低生产成本,又或者是按照本土文化习惯、审美进行改装。 The Russia business circles were different. First, the performance is not the first pursue ; The life of convenient people, similarly is not the main objective ; Optimizes the product performance, that did not need to count on. 俄国工商界就不同了。首先,性能不是第一位追求的;方便人们的生活,同样也不是主要目标;优化产品性能,那就更不用指望了。 Making to might as well buy the concept has struck root in the hearts of the people, for if not for deceives the subsidy from the Tsar government hand, or strives for the preferential policy, some people will not do the industry. “造不如买”的观念早就深入人心,若不是为了从沙皇政府手中骗补贴、或者是争取优惠政策,根本就不会有人去搞工业。 Under this situation, everyone's pursue is only restricted to be able the product manufacturing, as for other is unimportant. 在这种背景下,大家的追求仅限于能够将产品生产出来,至于其它的都不重要。 It is not everyone has not pursued, is mainly the industrial supporting system cannot follow, the artificial quality is also holding back similarly. 不是大家没有追求,主要是工业配套体系跟不上,人工素质同样也在拖后腿。 don't said that is the high-tech spare parts, the accuracy requirement slightly high screw, needs to import. Cannot produce, is the rate of finished products is too mainly touching. 莫说是高科技零配件,就连精度要求略高的螺丝,都需要进口。不是生产不出来,主要是成品率太感人。 This is also the Russia manufacture crude origin. It is not everyone wants to play, really cannot make the fine product. 这也是俄国制造“傻大黑粗”的由来。不是大家想这么玩儿,实在是做不出来精细化产品。 In order to guarantees the normal use, can only make the sacrifice in other aspects, therefore in the performance did not need to count on, only the praiseworthy merit was the robust anti- exercise. 为了能够保证正常使用,只能在其它方面做出牺牲,所以性能上是不用指望了,唯一值得称赞的优点是皮实耐操。 However this merit has very big limitation, limited to the ordinary daily industrial product, is not only applicable to any high accuracy product. 不过这个优点有很大局限性,仅限于普通日常工业制品,不适用于任何高精度产品。 Airplane high tech product, that not to mention, what Russia can produce is only beginning generation of wooden airplanes. 飞机这种高科技产物,那就更不用说了,俄国能够生产的只是初代木制飞机。 Now internationally the most popular airplane, has transited the metal alloy, core technologies one has not been Russia can handle. 现在国际上最流行的飞机,已经过渡到了金属合金,核心技术没有一项是俄国能够搞定的。 Wants itself to produce, the spare parts basically must import completely. How the performance cannot guarantee, the cost definitely came up in any case. 想要自己进行生产,零配件基本上全部都要进口。性能怎么样不敢保证,反正成本肯定是上去了。 The present is in time of war, obviously is not injuring oneself in putting on a vain show time. Starts forcefully any indefinite domestic-made fighter aircraft with it, might as well direct outsourcing end product fighter aircraft. 现在是战争时期,显然不是打肿脸充胖子的时候。与其强行上马啥也不确定的国产战机,还不如直接外购成品战机。 At least the mainstream fighter aircraft of Holy Roman air force armament, that is several hundred and over a thousand production, and also has experienced the test of time. 起码神罗空军装备的主流战机,那都是几百、上千架的生产,并且还经历过时间的考验。 The right hand rapped several seats gently, Nicholas II was frowning to ask: How many fighter aircraft does plan purchase? How many needs to budget? How do the aircraft crew solve?” 右手轻轻的敲击了几下座椅,尼古拉二世皱着眉头问道:“计划采购多少战机?需要多少预算?机组人员怎么解决?” The time is the best teacher, more than ten years of emperor professions later, Nicholas II was not formerly that fresh-faced youngster. 时间是最好的老师,十几年的帝王生涯下来,尼古拉二世也不是从前那个粉嫩少年了。 Perhaps is away from to become an outstanding monarchy still to have a distance, but the basic common thing, was unable to deceive now. 或许距离成为一名优秀的君主还存在一段距离,但是基本常识性的东西,现在已经无法糊弄过去了。 In fact, purchases the issue of fighter aircraft, the Tsar government was not the first discussion. 事实上,采购战机的问题,沙皇政府也不是第一讨论了。 The importance of air supremacy is self-evident, if can grasp in the hand, no one will give up. But lets it go finally for various reasons. 制空权的重要性不言而喻,要是能够掌握在手中,没有人会放弃。只不过最后都因为各种原因不了了之。 clear(ly) knew to have the difficulty, now still brings up an old matter again, the military naturally must draw up the plan to deal. 明知道有困难,现在仍然旧事重提,军方自然要拿出方案应对来了。 Secretary of war Yevgeniy: „ According to the information that the frontline transmits, wants the denial of the air, we at least need over a hundred fighter aircraft. 陆军大臣叶夫根尼:“根据前线传来的情报,想要夺取制空权,我们至少需要上百架战机。 Considering the present international situation is anxious, British Austria war may break out anytime, after this purchase, future a long time is unable to supplement, we prepare to imitate the Holy Roman air force organization system, forms an air division. 考虑到现在国际局势紧张,英战争随时都有可能爆发,这次采购后未来很长一段时间都无法补充,我们准备仿神罗空军建制,组建一个空军师。 In the computation prepares the battle loss, we total need to purchase 400 fighter aircraft, approximate procurement budget in 30 million ~ 50 million aegises. 计算上预备战损,我们共计需要采购400架战机,大致采购预算在3000万~5000万神盾之间。 Specific digit, but also wants the formal negotiation to determine from now on. In the aerospace, Holy Roman has the absolute advantage, even the English still falls behind a time. 具体数字,还要正式谈判过后才能够确定。在航空领域,神罗拥有绝对的优势,就算是英国人也落后一个时代。 By the industrial strength of Japan, can producing the airplane delivers to ascend the sky is not very easy, is far from the performance. 以日本的工业实力,能够将生产出来的飞机送上天都很不容易了,根本就谈不上性能。 Must cope with them, we purchased Holy Roman to be enough close to the second-hand fighter aircraft of retirement. Not can only save the cost, but can also attain on -hand merchandise in the shortest time. 要对付他们,我们购买神罗临近退役的二手战机就足够了。不仅可以节省成本,还能够在最短的时间内拿到现货。 As for the aircraft crew, after the war breaks out, we once entrusted Holy Roman to help train one batch. Underwent the training of more than half a year, now may also endure reluctantly uses. ” 至于机组人员,战争爆发后我们曾委托神罗帮忙培训了一批。经过了大半年的训练,现在也勉强可堪一用。” ( Note: The Holy Roman Empire air division manages 3 groups, each group supposes 3 flight squadron and a machine matters brigade, each brigade comprised of 3 aircraft squadrons, each aircraft squadron 8 fighter aircraft. Entire masters total 288 fighter aircraft, flying industrious personnel in addition ground crew total more than 5000 people.) (备注:神圣罗马帝国空军师下辖三个团,每个团设三个飞行大队和一个机务大队,每个大队由三个飞行中队组成,每个飞行中队八架战机。全师共计288架战机,飞勤人员加地勤人员共计五千余人。) The meaning of tone thick disdaining, is not difficult to see Yevgeniy's despising to Japan. Although Russian Empire does not have many, but the superiority feeling in bone cannot hide. 语气浓浓的不屑之意,不难看出叶夫根尼对日本的鄙视。尽管俄罗斯帝国也没有好多少,但骨子里的优越感还是隐藏不住的。 Regarding all these, the people have not found it strange. Looking down upon the Japanese is normal, if places in the equal standing to treat Japan, that really has the issue. 对于这一切,众人都没有觉得奇怪。看不起日本人正常,要是将日本放在平等地位上对待,那才是真的有问题。 Can look from the plan, the Russian force really progressed. If puts dozens years ago, that taking care is take only palliative measures, takes only palliative measures, the section however is impossible to prepare ahead of time. 从方案上就可以看出来,俄军真的进步了。若是搁在几十年前,那保管是“头疼医头,脚痛医脚”,段然不可能提前准备。 The war just broke out, delivers training on the organization personnel, before having gazes , the approach, obvious and bandit past rough different. 战争刚爆发,就组织人员送出去培训,这么有瞻前性的做法,明显和毛子以往的粗犷不一样。 Nicholas II has not felt joyful, instead emerged a despair in the heart deep place. 只是尼古拉二世并没有感到欣喜,反而在内心深处涌现出了一种绝望。 Analyzes to Yevgeniy's words slightly knows, Russian force's dependence to the Holy Roman was too high. If which day of both countries get angry, perhaps the battle efficiency of Russian force will reduce immediately greatly. 对叶夫根尼的话稍加剖析就知道,俄军对神罗的依赖度太高了。要是哪一天两国翻了脸,俄军的战斗力恐怕立即就会大减。 Knows to turn over to know, but the Russo-Japanese War has broken out now, Nicholas II not possible to get rid the dependency on Holy Roman, the rejection equipment does not use. 知道归知道,可现在日俄战争已经爆发了,尼古拉二世不可能为了摆脱对神罗的依赖,就舍弃先进装备不用。 Purchases the fighter aircraft, counts the recent dozens years of external wars, each war must have from the next door imports the munitions. 采购战机也就罢了,细数最近几十年的对外战争,每一次战争都少不了从隔壁进口军火。 The issue is secondhand goods that the present purchases, lost the face of Russian Empire, never expected that the military can also say unexpectedly that confidently, this made Nicholas II not be feeling well. 问题是现在购买的还是二手货,本来就丢了俄罗斯帝国的脸,没想到军方居然还能够说得那么坦然,这就令尼古拉二世不爽了。 Turns over to uncomfortable uncomfortable, but Russian Empire needs to rush to time now. Not to mention the frontline war potential is urgent, light/only looked that the international situation knew. 不爽归不爽,可是现在俄罗斯帝国需要赶时间。且不说前线的战势紧急,光看国际局势就知道了。 With the deterioration of Holy Roman with British relations, international situation all of a sudden anxious, the entire world can smell the smell of gunpowder. 伴随着神罗同不列颠关系的恶化,国际局势一下子就紧张了起来,全世界都能够闻得到火药味。 If not reach the arms sales agreement as soon as possible, completes the arms deal, after both countries erupt into the war officially, even in pocket rich, may be unable to buy. 要是不尽快达成军购协议,完成军火交易,等两国正式爆发战争后,就算是兜里有钱,都不一定能够买得到。 Can conduct the delivery in the shortest time, second-hand equips. If really the order to the ordnance machine shop, few months, does not handle directly. 能够在最短时间进行交割的,也只有二手装备。真要是直接向军工厂下订单,没有几个月时间,根本就搞不定。 Nicholas II does not know the real situation luckily, if discovered that in Russian force nearly uniform second-hand equipment, was supposing really wanted the volcanic eruption. 幸好尼古拉二世不知道真实情况,若是发现俄军中近乎清一色的二手装备,估摸着就真的要火山爆发了。 In some sense, the second-hand equipment does not have nothing well. Not is only low-cost, what is more important is the performance is credible. 某种意义上来说,二手装备也没什么不好。不光价格便宜,更重要的还是性能靠谱。 The matter that this year international arm business cheats must. If not keep several traps, said embarrassed oneself are an arms merchant. 这年头国际军火商坑人的事情多得去了。要是不留几个陷阱,都不好意思说自己是一名军火商。 Since the English made the bad start, everyone reduces on the straight line on the moral integrity, for example: Before exporting the most advanced weapons, first deletes some performance. 自从英国人开了坏头之后,大家就节操就直线降低,比如说:在出口最先进武器之前,先删减部分性能。 And is the more advanced weaponry, weakened is fiercer, most can only be tall Fang. 并且还是越先进的武器装备,被削弱的就越厉害,最多只能算是高仿。 But again how tall Fang, what is false was really not. If in the battlefield, the replica met the quality goods, that is divides minute to want the tragedy. 可是再怎么高仿,假的还是真不了。要是在战场上,仿制品遇到了正品,那就是分分钟要悲剧。 The Russian force large-scale use second-hand equipment, naturally is not because likes, what are more was the officers is feared by the domestic bureaucrat pit. 俄军大规模使用二手装备,自然不是因为喜欢,更多的还是官兵们被国内的官僚坑怕了。 Without the means that the bureaucratic businessmen collude with originally low-quality the domestic-made weapon, that did not need to count on. 没有办法,官商一勾结本就质量不好的国产武器,那就更不用指望了。 In comparison, directly was much more credible from the second-hand equipment of Holy Roman purchase. Not only in the performance has not deleted, the quality also underwent the time test. 相比之下,直接从神罗采购的二手装备就要靠谱得多了。不光性能上没有删减,就连质量也是经过了时间考验的。 That manages!” “那就这么办吧!” Nicholas II light replied. Everyone can look, now Tsar your majesty interest is not high. 尼古拉二世平淡的回答道。所有人看得出来,现在沙皇陛下的兴致不高。 However does not have the interest in turn over to not to have the interest, the government affairs always to process. Especially at present this critical moment, cannot allow to be slack in work. 不过没兴致归没兴致,政务总还是要处理的。尤其是在现在这种关键时刻,更容不得消极怠工。 Foreign minister Mikhailovich says: „ With intensifying of British Austria two countries conflict, the European situation even more was recently anxious for several days. 外交大臣米哈伊罗维奇开口说道:“伴随着英两国冲突的加剧,最近这些天欧洲局势越发紧张了。 In order to avoid standing in line again, various European countries stand the appeal peace, most positive that and other coastal states displays by Holland, Portugal. 为了避免再一次站队,欧洲各国纷纷站出来呼吁和平,其中又以荷兰、葡萄牙等沿海国家表现的最为积极。 So far, we had received the notes of 11 countries, hopes that we can lead remain neutral, to avoid being involved in the hegemony war. 截止到目前为止,我们已经收到了十一个国家的照会,希望我们能够带头保持中立,以避免卷入霸权战争之中。 Considering the complexity of situation, we are also very difficult to stroke for a short time clearly, Ministry of Foreign Affairs has not given the direct response. ” 考虑到局势的复杂性,一时半会儿我们也很难捋清楚,外交部并没有给予直接回应。” The leading big brother is not good to work as, various European countries do not want to be involved in the war, but does not have one to come out to work as the person who takes the lead, itself can explain many issues. 带头大哥不好当,欧洲各国都不想被卷入战争,可是却没有一家出来当出头鸟,本身就能够说明很多问题。 The present situation is obvious, clarifying is who first cropped up, who must undertake most firepower. 现在的局势非常明显,摆明了就是谁先冒头,谁就要承担大部分的火力。 If 30 years ago, met like this good opportunity, wants not to need to think, Mikhailovich should under. 如果是在三十年前,遇到了这样的好机会,想都不用想,米哈伊罗维奇就会一口应下。 However is now different, although the strength of Russian Empire constantly is enhanced, but the dependency on Holy Roman actually increases steadily. 但是现在不一样了,俄罗斯帝国的实力虽然在不断增强,可是对神罗的依赖却是有增无减。 Especially current Russo-Japanese War, but also needs the support of Vienna government. Cannot holds the knife to others, while seeks the support to others? 尤其是正在进行的日俄战争,还需要维也纳政府的支持。总不能一边对着人家捅刀子,一边又向人家寻求支持吧? Disagreement various countries are consistent, similarly is also one greatly troublesome. Without Russian Empire Lead Organization, so-called various countries together remain neutral, is a huge joke. 不和各国保持一致,同样也是一个大麻烦。没有俄罗斯帝国牵头组织,所谓的各国共同保持中立,就是一个天大的笑话。 Does not have other reason, the political pressure and military pressure that Holy Roman and Britain bring, can want some people to act to shoulder? 没别的原因,神罗和不列颠施加的政治压力、军事压力,总得要有人出面扛下吧? Besides Russian Empire, who can bear this pressure? 除了俄罗斯帝国外,谁能够承受这份压力? Even Spain, the reason that because oneself strength is insufficient, is unable to take on this heavy responsibility similarly. 即便是西班牙,因为自身实力不足的缘故,同样无法担此重任。 Other countries not to mention, without the sufficient strength, mixes the matter carelessly, that is needs to pay the price. 其它国家就更不用说了,要是没有足够的实力,胡乱掺合事儿,那是需要付出代价的。 No one dares to take the lead to cause trouble, then stands in line imperative. 没有人敢领头闹事,那么站队就势在必行。 Under this situation, the standpoint of Russian Empire was important, the choice to various European countries has almost the function of windvane. 在这种背景下,俄罗斯帝国的立场就至关重要了,对欧洲各国的选择差不多有风向标的作用。 If Tsar government support Holy Roman Empire , then means that in continental Europe does not have the war. Everyone follows to wave the flag and shout and that's the end, does not need to mix with the English. 如果沙皇政府支持神圣罗马帝国,那么就意味着欧洲大陆上无大战。大家跟着摇旗呐喊就是了,根本就不需要和英国人混。 Otherwise, Tsar government, if supports Britain, then this war is flood and field two jointly decided that is true uncertain future. 反之,沙皇政府要是支持不列颠,那么这场战争就是海陆两线共同决定的,算是真正的前途未卜。 After sighing, Nicholas II stood from the seat, lingered several after the indoor, helpless saying: „ Ministry of Foreign Affairs looks at the office! Don't we have other choices in any case now not? 叹了一口气后,尼古拉二世从座椅上站了起来,在室内徘徊了几步之后,无奈的说道:“外交部看着办吧!反正我们现在也没有其它选择不是么? Use this opportunity as far as possible, gains a bigger benefit for the empire, in the future will not perhaps have the opportunity. ” 尽可能的利用这次机会,为帝国争取更大的利益,往后恐怕就没机会了。” The reality is such brutal, by Russian Empire of Holy Roman depth binding, now does not have to choose, can only follow a Vienna say/way to arrive black. 现实就是这么残酷,被神罗深度绑定的俄罗斯帝国,现在同样没得选择,只能跟着维也纳一条道走到黑。
