"If this is the case, we have to dispatch at least 100 K-6 bombers every day to perform this mission, because the front line has a limited capacity of the airport within 200 kilometers." Kariput thought for a while and said that the load capacity of the k-6 bomb is not low. If you draw a circle at 200 kilometers, then it is fine to squeeze and load 2 tons of bombs with a combat radius of 200 kilometers. But the problem is that your load is enough, but it does not mean that the space is enough. After all, the density of the bomb is much larger than that of the compressed biscuits... The bullet cabin suitable for bombing is not suitable for placing other things. If you airdrop, you have to use a parachute. This will occupy some volume and weight.

"Then send a telegram to Seckt and ask him if he could build a suggested runway in the encirclement." The prince thought for a while and said.

In fact, the aircraft took off and landing in World War I was very difficult. Even in World War II, the aircraft took off and landing and maintenance requirements were not high. For example, at the end of World War II, in order to obtain peripheral supplies, the Germans dismantled a temporary airport in the center of the city that was 2,000 meters long and 200 to 400 meters in length... The aircraft in World War I could take off and land directly on the flat and compacted land.

"Okay, I know what you are thinking. Farkinhan is indeed not against us, but after all, he has stepped down and will not hinder us anymore. Sometimes, we need to make some gestures to tell the Prussian officers' regiment and some Junker nobles our kindness." The prince said to the Earl of Kariput, who was reluctant to speak.

In fact, dispatching more than 100 k-6 bombers to carry out transportation missions every day is a bit stressful for the current Bavarian Air Force. Because many bomber troops are still supporting the ongoing two-line battles, and in the Balkans, the prince even arranged more than four-digit aviation regiments to suppress Britain and France. Considering the upcoming landing operations by the French and the increasing combat distance of the air force, the pressure of the Bavarian Air Force has always increased.

From the perspective of material losses, every day, these bombers consume about 90 to 120 tons of fuel alone. There are more than 70 tons of materials, which does not count the consumption of the personnel and equipment. After all, 00 bombers have at least 4 bomber squadrons, and there are more than 2,000 personnel! But as the prince said, sometimes, these things are not an economic account but a political account. Although Frankinghan has many enemies, he can be the Chief of Staff of the German General Staff in history, which means that he still has his own confidants in the army, and he is also a prince. When he can no longer have a negative impact on the prince, there is no need for the prince to expose his anger on a younger generation.

Moreover, after all, there are more than 60,000 German soldiers in the encirclement. Whether as friendly forces or compatriots, they should receive support from the Bavarian Legion. First use air transport to hang their lives. Then look at the direction of the Russians' movement. If the Russians realize that they cannot trap their opponents, they are likely to evacuate themselves. After all, they are gone, so they have no leisure to continue to chew bones in front.

However, at this time, General Von Seckert, who was in the encirclement, was not as comfortable as the prince and the count. Although when he was shrinking his troops, Seckert had already chosen the best place, with convenient internal transportation, sufficient water source, and relatively large space. He could build defense lines based on towns and rivers. Taking advantage of the time when the Russians began to hunt down the Hungarians, Seckert's troops built a complete defense system in this area, and this defense system allowed them to successfully block several large-scale attacks by the Russians.

But at the same time, as time goes by, his troops are unlikely to come out of the defense line alone! Because the number of Russian troops is increasing, and friendly forces are getting farther and farther away from themselves.

"At least, I will let my subordinates live longer." Feng Seckert couldn't help but sigh after seeing today's ammunition consumption. From the current perspective, food and water for personnel are not a problem. Tens of thousands of horses and various livestock in the encirclement provided the German army with enough food for this period of time, and the water for drinking was inexhaustible. What really worried him was the consumption of ammunition and the loss of weapons. From the current perspective, in another week, he would have to strictly control the consumption of ammunition.

Although we are trying our best to boost morale, it has to be said that as the siege is getting longer and longer, negative emotions within the German army are also accumulating. Think about it, there are more than 100,000 Russian troops outside, and the nearest friendly troops are still more than 100 kilometers away... In this case, no one will be in a good mood!

"General, telegram from the Eastern Front Command!" A correspondent sent a telegram to General Secker with some trembling. The content was very short, but for Secker, it was tantamount to heaven! "The Bavarian Air Force decided to provide air transportation for you and your troops. Before this, I hope you can build a vacant land in your controlled area with a length of 2500 meters and a width of 250 meters to 500 meters! The soil must be compacted and there should not be too high buildings around."

"Air transportation?! Really or false?" Secker looked at the telegram in his hand and was skeptical. He knew what the performance of the plane is now. Now he actually uses the plane to transport supplies to them. This is a bit luxurious... To be honest, he didn't believe it. After all, how expensive are the aviation resources now? On the Western Front, all armies could fight for the help of a bomber brigade.

"What should we do, General?" asked an officer.

"Please choose a place where the Russian artillery fire cannot reach, and according to their requirements, start building a temporary airport that can take off and land planes." In less than 30 seconds, Seckert made a decision. After all, Seckert and his German army would not give up any hope of survival at this time. Now as long as a bullet can be transported from outside, a grain of rice will magnify the hope in their hearts exponentially!

So, thousands of officers and soldiers were summoned. They chose to start construction on a farm. They first dispose of the crops in the fields, then cleaned up some shrubs and woods next to them. Finally, they used livestock and vehicles to flatten the airport over and over again with mills. At the same time, they also used several rooms inside the farm as the airport offices, and built some observation posts and towers with wood around them. By the way, special radio personnel and radio stations should be equipped as guides.
