"Mr. Lilienthal, I''m sorry, I''m only allowed to see you here." In the ward, after seeing Gustav Lilienthal, Qin Tian immediately apologized to him.


    "Your Highness, it is my fault to disturb your recovery." Gustav Lilienthal said.


    After some pleasantries, their conversation got to the point.


    "Mr. Lilienthal, I am very concerned about your research. At the same time, I also admire it very much. Your brother, Mr. Otto Lilienthal, I am an admirable person. He is dedicated to the flight career , sacrificed his life." Qin Tian looked reverent.


    "Your Highness, if my brother knows what His Highness said, he will be very pleased." Gustav Lilienthal felt a little sad when he thought of his elder brother.


    "Mr. Lilienthal, the Wright Brothers in the United States have developed the first aircraft a few years ago. What do you think of this?" Qin Tian asked.


    "Your Highness, the Wright Brothers have indeed aplished the feat of the first human being to go into space. Although, the time it took for them to take off for the first time was not long. However, with the follow-up research, the aircraft they developed took longer to go into space. It''s getting longer and longer. I believe that their research will be sessful." Gustav Lilienthal said.


    Qin Tian nodded. It is precisely because of the research of countless aviation pioneers that the aviation industry ofter generations will be brilliant. Even now, everything is still in the pioneering stage. However, Qin Tian knew that the final sess was actually not far away.


    "Mr. Lilienthal, I don''t know if you have thought about the application of aircraft in the military field." Qin Tian asked.


    "Military field?" Lilienthal frowned involuntarily. The current aircraft has only just solved the problem of flying. The time spent in the air is very short, the flying altitude is not high, and the speed is also very slow. Under such circumstances, it is undoubtedly too early to talk about the application in the military field.


    "Yes, sir. Although the aircraft has only just appeared. However, I think it will be a weapon that will change the world. Future wars will change drastically because of this. Therefore, Germany in this regard , we must notg behind other countries, and must even be at the leading level in the world. Only in this way can our national security and interests be guaranteed." Qin Tian said with a serious face.


    Gustav Lilienthal immediately stood in awe. Although he didn''t think so much at all, since Qin Tian attached so much importance to it. As a German, of course he has to work hard for the benefit of Germany.


    "Your Highness, although the Wright Brothers are ahead in this regard, our technical reserves are no worse than theirs. If necessary, it is absolutely no problem to catch up with them." Gustav? Lilienthal promised.


    Qin Tian nodded: "I believe in your abilities. However, the performance of the current aircraft is still too bad. If it is to be applied to the military field, further research is needed. Think about it, the future battlefield , Carrying arge number of bombs, hordes of nes attack the enemy from the air, drop the bombs on the enemy''s head, and tear the enemy into pieces. In order to protect the country''s airspace, countless fighter nes are fighting in the air, and machine guns are strafing , the machine gun roared, what an exciting scene!"


    Indeed, Gustav Lilienthal was already excited by the blueprint for the future that Qin Tian had drawn. Their research on aircraft is still in its infancy, and they never thought that it would have such a big application in the military field.


    "Mr. Lilienthal, if you have no objection, then let me support your research from now on. All the funds, all equipment and other aspects needed for your research will be provided by me. Regarding this , I only have one request, and that is that your research projects must be carried out ording to my requirements." Qin Tian said.


    Gustav Lilienthal hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded. He knew that if he agreed to Qin Tian''s request, then their research would probably change to the military field that Qin Tian requested. However, as a German, how could he refuse Qin Tian''s request? Besides, because ofck of funds, their research has indeed fallen into trouble. Without Qin Tian''s support, their life would be a problem, let alone carry out further research.


    "Your Highness, I ept your proposal. For the strength of the German Empire, we are willing to contribute our strength." Gustav Lilienthal said.


    "Mr. Lilienthal, then I hope we can cooperate happily." Qin Tian''s face was full of smiles. Gustav Lilienthal was able to ept his proposal, which was undoubtedly the best result. He had been worried that these people who were engaged in scientific research would have abnormal brains and were unwilling to be restricted. In that case, there is no guarantee that he can only take some drastic measures in order to seed in the n. It''s just that, in that case, the work efficiency will definitely be greatly affected, which is not what Qin Tian wants. It would be great if Gustav Lilienthal and the others could take the initiative to cooperate.


    "Happy cooperation!" Gustav Lilienthal also said.


    "Mr. Lilienthal, when developing an aircraft, the engine is the most important thing. It is the heart of the aircraft. Only with a good engine can the aircraft fly higher and faster, and at the same time, the load capacity of the aircraft can also be increased. Deutsche Engine Manufacturing Company is improving aero engines on the basis of automobile engines. Judging from the current situation, a major breakthrough has been made. I am nervous. In the next step, I will ask them to fully cooperate with you. In this case , can provide you with more support." Qin Tian said.


    "Okay, Your Royal Highness. If the engine problem can be solved, then our development will go more smoothly." Gustav Lilienthal nodded.


    "I hope that within three years, you can develop an aircraft with a flying speed of more than 100 kilometers per hour, a practical ceiling of more than 2,000 meters, a pilot, an aviation machine gun, and a range of more than 200 kilometers. If this is the case, it won''t be too far to go into actualbat." Qin Tian said.


    The key data listed by Qin Tian is undoubtedly a great challenge for Gustav Lilienthal. But he believes that as long as the support is in ce, it can definitely be achieved.
