Chapter 291: Depressed Father of the Air Force

"By the way, there are two friends. My father wants you to meet them." In addition to the girls on the way home, there were more and more Lawrence.
"Which way?" Li Zitao asked quietly.
"Skunk, you will be very happy to see them." Lawrence smiled mysteriously.
On Gulfstream One, Li Zitao, who loves to be named, rarely gets lazy this time, because the first one was delivered, so he named it "One".
The plane landed in Los Angeles. After sending the girls away, refuel, check, and take off again.
Fort Myers, Virginia.
When Li Zitao met William Mitchell, who was in the year of his destiny, he was deprived of all duties by his humble and ridiculous trial. His current status is Special Adviser.
If the aircraft carrier of the United States can appear, launch smoothly, and occupy an increasingly important position, the first merit will be remembered by the former Brigadier General.
If it weren’t for the inferior conspiracy from the captain of the navy battleship group, he should have been promoted to lieutenant general after an outrageous hearing and trial.
For centuries, the strength of the fleet has marked the strength and decline of a country.
It was after defeating the invincible fleet of Spain that the Great Y Empire emerged as a later empire, with colonies all over the world.
In modern times, battleships have become the absolute main force in the fleet, and the captain’s power is infinitely expanded, which also allows them to breed imaginative, unique personality.
As the strongest battleship group in the fleet, how could it be willing to surrender its power after learning of the plan to use the aircraft carrier as the core and reduce the battleship to a supporting role.
They must try their best to ensure their status in the navy for the next fifteen years. In order to achieve this, they will spare no effort to cooperate with the ‘old enemy’ army.
The first to be targeted by them, William Mitchell, who is promoting the importance of the Air Force in an all-round way, is regarded as an idol and hero by the Air Force.
Mitchell, who led the U.S.-European Union Air Force in World War I as the commander-in-chief in the air battle of the Battle of San Michel, is the belief of all aviation.
As long as this belief is destroyed, they can then retain their rights.
But at this time, the Washington DC Naval Treaty signed in 1922 stipulated that no new battleships could be built within the scope of the treaty within the next fifteen years.
First they criticized General Mitchell and his theory of victory in the air for nothing, and then they slandered him with vile personal attacks.
The following year, Brigadier General William Michelle was convicted of his words and was demoted to the colonel.
In 1925, Mitchell criticized the naval airship "Sheldon South" accident.
The consequence was that it was deemed "too fierce and corrupt the reputation of the army," and it was sent to the military court.
The trial that silenced Murray, opened its curtain.
A trial committee composed of senior navy and army generals began to bombard William Mitchell in turns.
Ignoring all the evidence and realization data that he put forward, each of them blamed Michelle for a few hours of debate.
When the other party was said to be speechless, the trial committee chose to "expose lightly" and continue to choose "indirect blindness." ’
In the end, William Mitchell was found to be in violation of military discipline and was suspended for five years from now.
Standing next to him at the time was only a senior naval general, General William S. Sims, and he therefore lost the opportunity to be officially promoted to the general.
It was the efforts of these two people that made Congress recognize the importance of aircraft carriers and aviation.
It is for this reason that the naval aviation weaving is preserved and the aircraft carrier transformation plan is carried out with the approval of Congress.
However, William Mitchell and General William Sims, who were resented and resisted by almost all battleship captains and senior army generals, left the army forever.
"When I came up with the Air Force idea, I expected some resistance, but it was more terrible than I thought, stubborn."
Speaking of the past, the disheartened General William Mitchell behaved calmly.
"The only thing that regrets me is that Sims was implicated and left his post of devotion and love."
Speaking of this 20-year-old turn of the year, Mitchell's tone was a bit sighing.
General Sims, who was high-spirited and energetic, is now in depression every day, and his physical condition is gradually deteriorating.
Losing the cause of a lifetime of struggle, leaving with regret and stains, for Sims, it is tantamount to sentence him to death in court.
"General Mitchell, I would like to invite you to join my R&D team, skunk, don't you know that you have heard of it?" After receiving Lawrence's gesture, Li Zitao offered an invitation.
This is what the two had negotiated on the road, and William Mitchell was invited to join the skunk to train a qualified pilot.
Then invite William Sims to join Lee C. Astor Shipyard, the general who fought with the navy in the navy, the experience is the most precious wealth.
"I know it, an aircraft research and development company, I'm not good at it, my duty is war." When William Mitchell said this, EbookFREE.me~ eyes bright, his fists clenched firmly , As if ready to arrive at war.
The enemy has 30 seconds to reach the battlefield-
"Cough, General Mitchell, we will not only develop aircraft, but Skunk’s parent company American Aerospace will be officially put into operation and form a flying team.
Obtain international and domestic routes in Europe, America, Australia and Asia, so from now on we need to train qualified pilots—"
When he lifted the pilot, Mitchell's eyes dimmed back to light again.
"By what standard?" William Mitchell's tone was a little agitated. Although he behaved calmly, the tone shook slightly, and Li Zitao heard it.
"Your request is the standard." After talking, Li Zitao and Lawrence smiled at each other.
William Mitchell was moved, maybe he should continue to play the heat, even if not on the battlefield.
"Cultivate a group of qualified elite pilots who can go to the battlefield and join the battle at any time for America's future. This is a good note!"
Seeing his nod, Li Zitao got up and shook his hand and said lightly: "Welcome to join American Aerospace."
"I am very happy to be able to join it." Mitchell finished, deliberately pretending to be a joke: "Li, you have to fulfill your promise."
"Of course." Li Zitao replied affirmatively, making Mitchell's last doubt subside.
After hearing that Li Zitao wanted to invite his friend William Sims to join his shipyard and said that there was enough to build an aircraft carrier, he immediately picked up the phone.
"Sims, old man, move quickly, your body is about to rust, haha—"
The hearty laughter of the two old men was conveyed in the microphone, and the old man's body burst into a full of vitality, full of vitality as if he was 10 years younger.
