While the three were communicating, a tank was dragged by a tank tractor at the factory gate and stopped at the gate with difficulty.
There was a man on the truck who was wearing a shabby military uniform, with oil stains on his body, and he was very embarrassed.
"Open the door, hurry up."
The visitor spoke in a rude manner. The security officer responsible for guarding the door looked at the visitor and did not come forward to argue.
The main thing is that this person has been here many times and they all know him.
"Section Chief Feng, why are you here again?"
The officer from the Security Section came forward to ask. Section Chief Feng patted the Type 59's rolled steel shell in annoyance. The banging sound represented his inner anger.
"Something goes wrong all day long. It's easy to deal with minor ailments, but what's going on with the engine?"
“I stopped running within an hour after I went out and turned off the engine.”
"If I didn't come here to find you, where would I go to find you?"
Section Chief Feng said with a sideways glance. The security officer also knew the general situation and understood that there must be something wrong with the factory equipment.
I can't help it, this kind of thing has happened a lot in the past two years.
One time I went out for a drill, and half of the 59s were parked on the side of the road. Pedestrians passing by thought they were resting, but in fact they were all broken down and left on the roadside.
Since then, there has never been an exercise of this scale here.
The factory personnel who received the news quickly ran out and sent the faulty tank to the repair room.
"Where is your director?"
Section Chief Feng looked at several people in the workshop busy dismantling the tank and asked Lao He next to him.
Lao He looked around and found that the director hadn't come back yet, so he explained, "I was just called to a meeting by the factory director!"
"There's so much going on!"
Section Chief Feng said something, then looked at the tank, "Old He, what's going on with your engine?"
"The Type 59 used to have many minor problems, let alone malfunctions. But now you see, they are inspected and repaired every three days."
"This time the engine stopped even more. What's going on?"
Lao He listened to Section Chief Feng's complaints and couldn't help it. He would have to check now to find out.
"We have no choice. As you know, the engines we use now are all made by ourselves. We haven't fully digested the technology yet. It would be good if we can put the materials to use. What can we do?"
After hearing Lao He's explanation, Section Chief Feng didn't say much.
This is a national condition and there is nothing he can do about it.
"When will it be repaired? I'm still waiting to go to work."
"Tear it down later and take a look!"
Section Chief Feng had no choice but to wait aside.
When the director returned to the workshop, he saw the Type 59 being disassembled and his heart sank.
"Lao Yu, you are back."
A familiar voice came from the side, and Director Yu immediately saw Section Chief Feng running over, with a forced smile on his face.
But I was on alert. Last time this guy came here, he bought a new one from them in the name of repairing the tank, saying it was for emergency use.
But the tank he finally repaired was driven back again, and again and again, the factory lost a tank in vain.
"Lao Feng, I didn't expect you to come over."
"Haha, Lao Yu, I was just thinking of looking for you. Come on, help me quickly to see what's going on and can it be fixed?"
"If it can't be repaired, you have to get me a new one. Your factory director had an agreement with our leaders back then."
Old Yu rolled his eyes, "Why don't you go talk to the factory director?"
"Forget it, it's our business, don't bother the leader."
Section Chief Feng smiled, then looked at the disassembled parts, revealing the engine inside, and asked curiously, "I'm not telling you, Lao Yu, this engine has been around for so many years, don't you want to replace it?"
"Everything goes wrong these days. Isn't there anything better in our country?"
Director Yu looked at the scene, turned around and said seriously, "Don't tell me, a machine factory in Sijiucheng made an eight-cylinder diesel engine two days ago. I heard it's pretty good and can reach 800 horsepower. How about you?"
Contact me?"
Section Chief Feng was stunned when he heard this.
But he quickly reacted, "Lao Yu, you are dishonest."
"I can still tell the difference between the eight-cylinder one and the twelve-cylinder one."
"Speaking of which, the performance of our production is quite good..."
...
Southern Fujian.
Continuous stretches of mountainous land are undulating here, and the winding mountain roads cannot be seen disappearing after inserting into the mountains.
And among these mountains, a tent suddenly appeared.
In the large tent in the middle, the situation of the exercise was constantly gathered, and then specialized personnel explained the current battle situation.
"I didn't expect that when you put a heavy truck on a rocket launcher, it would be so sharp."
"As expected of the Cyclone Troops."
The old man who spoke showed his short hair like a steamed bun and a steel needle, and he was very cheerful.
But the person he praised looked calm and felt very unhappy inside.
"Old Han, where did you get all these heavy cards? Why don't we have so many?"
Lao Han, who was sitting opposite, glanced at me and said, "Lao Zhu, just take advantage of this and behave yourself."
Lao Han did not answer Lao Zhu's question, but replied unconvinced.
Lao Zhu didn't care, "Haha, I can't help it, that's how this tractor is used. Our bison have gone into the mountains, so they naturally become wilder."
The busy staff in the headquarters heard the conversation between the two men holding guns and sticks, and they all moved away to make room.
"Hmph, don't be proud."
"This tractor is indeed suitable for fighting in this situation, and it also caught us off guard, but, haha..."
Lao Han didn't explain clearly, which made Lao Zhu frown on the side, his intuition told him that Lao Han was up to something.
Sure enough, after a while, a group of tanks were announced by the command to appear on the battlefield.
The direction of march seemed to be the mountainous area where the tractor was located.
'This is bad.'
Old Han glanced at it and continued to sneer.
"Bing, not squad leader."
The soldiers behind me ran over, very nervous.
At this moment, I was sitting on the wild boar forklift and was sleeping with my eyes closed.
This time I finally got on the last bus for this exercise. I thought I could follow behind to pick up some soup and talk to my comrades when I got home.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived, he became a peripheral employee, and the forklift he drove was even more useless.
When he heard someone calling him, Liu Jun quickly opened his eyes, and then asked slowly, "What happened?"
"Tanks, there are many tanks outside the mountainous area."
"Hmm? Did you see clearly?"
"Squad leader, I'm lying on the tree and can see clearly with a telescope. There should be thirty or forty cars at best."
When Liu Jun heard this, he immediately understood that the other party was here to pay off the goods.
At the moment, the bison are scattered and hiding in various places in the mountainous area, preparing to wait for the next round of orders. They cannot be organized at all, and they cannot complete the order in a short time even if they run.
"Old Liu, what should we do?"
The deputy monitor came over to ask about the situation.
"Old Shi, you take two people to inform the people behind you. Let's block here."
"good!"
After all, this was a drill and not a desperate effort, so the class deputy immediately led the people into the forest behind.
Liu Jun was relieved when he saw this.
Then everyone was called together and asked for their opinions.
"Squad leader, let's fight them. We would rather die than become prisoners."
If you are captured, you will lose someone if you go back after this exercise.
It would be better to die in battle.
Liu Jun saw this, his military spirit was ready, and then he looked around and suddenly looked around the corner with a smile on his face.
"What is the climbing angle of this Type 59?"
"58!"
Someone answered quickly and Liu Jun nodded.
"Then, dig a trench and earth wall for me as quickly as possible."
"Xiao Wang drives the forklift, and the others are digging holes behind. Dig hard for me."
"yes!"
Soon, with the push of the shovel, shovel after shovel was being dug and pushed.
Soon, when rumbling could be heard, bursts of roaring came from the foot of the mountain ahead. With the blessing of the valley, the echo was very loud.
"Get the wild boar out of the way and continue digging."
"The others are ready, hide it."
After a while, a 59 with the lead rushed over. Because the mountain blocked the turning point and it was not clear, it hit the mound in front of it.
The strong weight directly knocked a piece of fresh dirt forward, and the car walked a certain distance against the pile of dirt before stopping the car.
The tanks behind them stopped one after another.
The accompanying infantrymen jumped out of the vehicle to check the situation.
"what happened?"
"Report, there are mounds of soil blocking the front, and there is a deep trench behind."
"Our tanks can't get through it."
The commander frowned after hearing this, then walked to the mound in front of him in three or two steps, looked at the newly dug soil, and looked around.
At this moment, a clear voice sounded, and everyone was shocked.
And immediately, a cloud of blue smoke came out from the commander's back.
At the same time, the overwhelming sound of shooting came from the ridges on both sides.
Although there were less than ten people, the momentum was astonishing.
In the headquarters, Mr. Zhu walked anxiously, looking uneasy.
In comparison, Lao Han was very confident. What he sent out was a powerful mobile force. The tractor on the other side that couldn't run very fast was definitely no match for him.
Just as the two were waiting for the final result, the director's department sent the latest information, and they hurried forward to check it out.
For a moment, the two people's reactions changed.
Hahaha
Lao Zhu smiled so much that he almost burst into tears.
But Lao Han's face was filled with frost.
The above is the latest notice, saying that the blue team's rapid force was blocked at the foot of the mountain by an earth wall and a reinforced squad. It took half an hour to annihilate the "enemy" personnel guarding it.
Then it was time to demolish the earth walls and fill the holes.
By the time they finish all this work, their target will have already arrived.
Not only did they come, they also targeted this army.
Immediately, the director team sentenced all these people and equipment to be 'killed' and 'destroyed'!
"Trash, a wall of earth blocked the entire rapid detachment? Trash!"
Old Han sat aside and sulked.
When Lao Zhu saw it, he came over to comfort him, "Lao Han, don't take it seriously, it's just an exercise."
"I just took this opportunity to make a mistake during the drill, so I just need to correct it."
"snort!"
Lao Han said disdainfully, "You can just play the zither. My little whirlwind hasn't moved yet, and we don't know whether we will win or lose."
Zhu Lao shrugged and went out to use the toilet.
Lao Han looked at Lao Zhu leaving, sat back on his chair, and said to himself, "If this tank really comes to the battlefield, wouldn't it be a living target?"
"It still needs to be improved."
...
Machinery factory, workshop.
After confirming that the eight-cylinder diesel engine was successfully produced, the workshop did not continue production.
First of all, if there are not enough materials, at least until the third machine department and the first machine department send them, the machine factory will not have reserves.
Of course, after the subsequent design is completed, the demand for these resources will be greater.
If you want to start production at that time, it won’t be possible without support from the First Machinery Department and the Third Machinery Department.
"Gong Liu, try this material and see if it works."
Yang Xiaotao held a yellow, bumpy steel plate in his hand and handed it to Liu Daming in front of him.
After Liu Daming took it, his first feeling was that it was not light and heavy. Compared with the material used to make the cylinder piston last time, it was heavier.
Without further ado, Liu Daming began to operate the machine tool and start processing.
But not long after, Liu Daming came over carrying a semi-finished piston, "Mr. Yang, where did you find this board?"
"What's wrong? Isn't it possible?"
"Well, look at the gaps in the processing, the fusion is obviously uneven, and the material itself has problems, and the piston made may not be suitable for use."
Yang Xiaotao nodded, "This is the result of the alloy research team a while ago. I didn't expect that it still wouldn't work."
"It seems that there is still room for improvement."
