Chapter 1709 Flying Across the Ocean

"Deng deng deng." The pedal sewing machine made a dull sound, and the sewing needle on the head of the machine swayed up and down, pinning the two thick cloths together.

Underneath the sewing machine, there was already a large amount of silk cloth, piled up in a pile, and the female worker's two legs kept stepping on the pedal below to sew the silk cloth.

"Okay, it's done," the female worker said.

This is just an ordinary private house. After the female workers are finished, they fold the silk cloth in half, and then put it at the door. Outside, a person riding a bicycle is going from house to house to stitch the finished products.

This is the local industrial model of the island nation.

Other countries are all in the form of factories, where a large number of workers carry out production operations, but island countries are still in the form of small handicraft workshops.

Even the manufacture of airplanes is a one-by-one manual workshop. They take tasks from the aircraft factory, take them back to their own homes, manufacture various parts, and then send them to the factory for final assembly.

So when the United States bombed the island countries in the late World War II, the effect was not good at first, and it was useless to blow up their factories, because the parts were all produced below, they just needed to find a suitable place for final assembly.

The female worker sent away the silk cloth and looked at the picture hanging next to the sewing machine. There, a young boy was smiling and wearing a military uniform, he looked very big.

When will the damn war end?

"We have already made a hundred balloons." On this day, on the beach in Tokyo, the sun was soft and the sea breeze was blowing gently on everyone's clothes. Arakawa Hidetoshi looked at the balloons laid out on the beach and said: " The order has been issued, and Operation Flying Elephant has officially started, and the first strike against the mainland of the United States will be carried out by us. In the history of the island country, there will be two of us."

This kind of attack operation using balloons, code-named Operation Flying Elephant, if the first batch is successful, everyone in the country, even middle school students, can rush to make balloons and release tens of thousands of balloons to the United States.

The height adjustment device, the test went very smoothly, it was successful in almost a day, and then, it was the first blow.

Following his order, the workers moved their hands. Next to each balloon, there was a steel gas cylinder. They docked the gas cylinder with the balloon. Soon, the deflated balloon began to bulge. .

The entire beach has become a sea of ​​balloons.

"Timer, set 69 hours." Arakawa Hidetoshi continued to shout.

In addition to the altitude maintenance device he designed, there is also timing. If there is no limit, the balloon will not know how many times it will fly around the earth. It must fly over the United States and then drop it to explode.

Timing is also a simple mechanical device, just adjust the knob on the top.

As the balloon gradually became drum, it flew upward slowly, and the hanging basket below was also propped up. If there was no pulling force from the rope of the wooden stake on the beach, it would just fly away.

"Balloon 1 is ready."

"Balloon 2 is ready."

…

"Let it go!" Arakawa Hidetoshi shouted loudly.

With his voice, the operators below loosened the rope, and suddenly, one after another, balloons rose up, and they were surrounded, you vying for me.

Looking at these flying balloons, everyone's eyes are full of expectations.

The balloon is slowly rising, rising, a kilometer, two kilometers...

"Bang" As the balloon rose, the air pressure decreased, and a bolt controlled by the sandbag fell off under the action of the air pressure. The sandbag fell from the air, and at the same time, the balloon jumped up again.

The sandbag dropped once, and the balloon continued to rise. After half an hour, it had climbed to 10,000 meters.

"Bang!" A balloon burst suddenly. At this height, its belly was bulging, like a fat man who was full, and now it burst.

"Chi, chi." Another balloon, the valve below it opened automatically, and with the sound, a stream of air came out of the balloon, and at the low temperature at high altitude, the gas appeared white.

There are balloons bursting and falling, and some balloons have not climbed up due to various reasons. Only more than 70 balloons have successfully stabilized at a height of about 10,000 meters. Under the blowing of high-altitude airflow, this time Journey around the world.

Suddenly, a balloon's sutures opened, and a stream of air came out of the opening, and then the balloon deflated quickly and fell down.

At an altitude of 10,000 meters, all kinds of things will happen. If other balloons have thoughts, they will definitely watch their companions fall down with regretful eyes, and at the same time, they are glad that they are still intact.

Time passed slowly, and the sky was 10,000 meters high, constantly experiencing the alternation of day and night. When the second alternation of day and night passed, it was a new day.

The timer was ticking, and suddenly, the timer went to the designated position, and then the mechanism inside was triggered.

"Bang." There was a soft sound again. With the light sound, the switch of the balloon was completely turned on, and all the hydrogen inside was discharged outward. With the leakage of hydrogen, the entire balloon bomb began to descend rapidly. sports.

Target, America, blow them up!

It took a long time to fly to an altitude of 10,000 meters at the beginning, but now the whereabouts are quite short. In just ten minutes, with a fierce whistling, a balloon bomb fell.

"Bang!" When the bomb touched the sea surface, there was a loud crash, followed by a bang, and the water splashed more than ten meters high.

A few waves turned over, and the entire sea returned to calm again.

This bomb just fell to the sea, and it was still dozens of kilometers away from the target, and its timer was triggered prematurely.

Some balloons began to deflate and fall, and some balloons continued. When they set off, the balloons that filled the sky were now independent of each other with the blowing of the airflow, and the distance between them was even as high as hundreds of kilometers.

"Chichichi." A balloon was slowly deflating, and while deflating, it fell down. When it landed for a few kilometers, suddenly, a strong wind blew, instantly deflating the balloon again. It blows, the bottom is stacked on top, and it becomes a parachute.

This balloon, which became a parachute, continued to sway down, and below it was the mountains, the earth, and the woods.

"Crash." The gondola smashed onto the branch, and before the fuse could be triggered, the balloon above was completely hooked to the tree, and the gondola swayed, like it was on a swing.
