"The chamber pressure of this kind of artillery is more than double that of our own artillery. They must have new materials...otherwise it will definitely explode." Looking at the 305mm caliber naval gun on the drawing, a man said
Cyric's engineer took off his glasses and said to his colleagues around him.
"If you hadn't seen this complete set of drawings, who would have thought that the armor thickness of the main gun turret of Datang Group's battleship is more than 300 mm? So thick...how do they make the battleship float?" Another expert on the side exclaimed.
They all came directly from the Mirage Kingdom, so they arrived in the Tang Kingdom first and saw the design drawings of the Dongwan-class battleships of the Datang Group that were on sale.
In order to be able to see these drawings, they paid a deposit of 30,000 gold coins, and they had the right to leave Tang State only after the procurement project was completed.
Now they are gathered in this small room, sighing at the exquisite designs of the drawings in front of them. They really did not expect that it turned out to be the same type of battleship, and the battleship designed by Cyric would be worse than the battleship designed by Datang Group.
So much.
"The person who came up with such a plan must be a genius." The expert who was looking at the cabin design patted his thigh and was almost moved to tears by the rigorous design.
The technician sitting next to him disagreed. He felt that if he could be provided with a sophisticated power system like the Datang Group, he could be bolder and install more armor on his warships.
You know, at that time he also came up with a heavy armor plan, and now it seems that the protection level is not much different from that of Datang Group's Dongwan-class battleships.
Unfortunately, that plan was eventually rejected, because due to the constraints of the power system, Cyric's battleships simply could not use that much and heavy armor.
If so many steel plates were installed, Cyric's battleship would be unable to move at all: its speed would probably be only a few kilometers, let alone catch up with the enemy, and it might fall into the water and have no choice but to drift with the current.
Only by using the power system of the Datang Group can the new battleship be fast enough and qualified to be used as a battleship.
Cyric himself has designed some strange and bizarre battleships in recent years, and some of them really have the legacy of the battleships of the Beiyang era.
Unfortunately, most of these warships are restricted by their power systems and cannot be mass-produced. They can only be used as experimental products and left on the beach to be corroded and destroyed by nature.
Now, the problem seems to have been solved. After paying a lot of gold coins, Cyric seems to have obtained a more powerful engine that can support those unrealistic fantasies before.
"In fact, there is another variant design that emphasizes high speed, installs one less turret, and puts more emphasis on high-speed performance... It is more suitable for ocean warfare, allowing warships to arrive at the incident location faster, allowing the navy to use the fastest
Speed and invest the most troops where they are most needed." The designer from the Datang Group walked in with some other warship design drawings and introduced them very thoughtfully: "You can take a look and open up some ideas."
Cyric has confirmed with Datang Group the purchase of Dongwan-class battleships, as well as the corresponding drawings of several improved and extended battleships.
Datang Group even promised to conduct technical exchanges with Cyric engineers to discuss the development and design of battleships, and bring along those idiots who know nothing else.
Of course, all this is for a fee!
Cyric has to pay a total of 170 million gold coins for this. If you want a Dongwan-class battleship, the cost will be calculated separately!
They are now qualified to see these things, just to help Cyric check the authenticity of these drawings and let Cyric decide whether to proceed with the next stage of cooperation.
After all, aircraft technology is the big deal and the real end that Cyric, or other countries, want.
Seeing the people from Datang Group who came to deliver the drawings leave and the door being closed again, these Cyric engineers lowered their heads again and looked at the new drawings.
There are actually many boxes in the room, and the boxes are covered with blueprints, which makes them look a bit messy. There is no way, there are at least tens of thousands of blueprints for a battleship, and it is really amazing to take them all out.
Of course, this does not include the technical drawings of material metallurgy. If added, there may be more.
Cyric's engineers, who were looking down at the drawings, started talking again: "They lengthened the battleship a bit, so that it can travel faster... and its buoyancy is relatively higher. It's amazing."
"You can also carry more Danshui. What did they think?" Someone immediately nodded, thinking this was a genius design.
The more everyone watched, the more excited they became, as if a door to a new world had opened. Datang Group's technology shocked them, and at the same time made them progress rapidly.
They were fascinated by what they saw, and in a blink of an eye it was time for the dinner. After being reminded twice, everyone put down the drawings in their hands and left under the guidance of the waiter, but one person did not leave.
When he came in with the waiter to check the room for the third time, he immediately greeted him and said, "I want to see your boss."
"Sir, I don't know what you are talking about." The waiter replied politely.
"I want to see your boss! I am Cyric's senior engineer, and have been since I was 21 years old! I want to see your boss, please... take me there." The middle-aged man almost said
The child started to cry.
After a few seconds, the waiter he was staring at sighed helplessly, then opened the door and led him in the opposite direction.
Soon, the door of another room was pushed open, and the waiter took the middle-aged man to a luxurious room where a man was sitting.
"Is someone here so soon?" The man sitting in the room glanced at Cyric's engineer who followed the waiter into the room and asked.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Yes, sir! He insists on seeing you." After the waiter answered, he left the room.
"So... you are planning to betray Cyric?" The officer from the Tang State Security Department smiled and asked a very heart-wrenching question.
"I never felt that this was a betrayal. If I insist on saying it is a betrayal, it was Cyric who betrayed technology and betrayed me." The middle-aged man in front of him replied: "They can't give me what I want.
I have been at the forefront of the world all my life, but Cyric's lagging behind made me stop moving forward."
"You are a very interesting person, would you like something to drink?" The security department officer sitting there waved his hand, and Cyric's engineer noticed that behind him was a wine cabinet full of famous wines.
"No, no need, thank you." The engineer waved his hand and said, "Leave me here, I am willing to serve you!"
"Then you need to show off your talent." The officer from the security department stood up with a smile, poured himself a glass of wine, and poured another glass for the other party: "As long as your skills are excellent, we can take you in.
"
"Give me a few assistants and I will prove my ability." Cyric's engineer said firmly.
"No, you don't need an assistant just yet. You have to go back and continue working for Cyric for one year. After one year, you will be eligible to come back with honors and achievements." The man handed over the wine glass and motioned for the other person to continue.
: "Now, the thing is very simple. You send back the information we need, and we will arrange a position for you where you want."
"I understand." Cyric's engineer's hands were shaking a little. He had never thought that one day he would become a spy.
"You don't need to be afraid at all. We actually don't need much! You just need to work normally and wait for our people to activate you." The officer from the security department shook the wine glass in his hand: "We just need
I will use you once and I will arrange a way out for you. Believe me, there is no better deal than this."
"I, I will cooperate." The engineer swallowed, then picked up the wine glass and drank all the wine in it, as if he had made a major decision.
"Go, the dinner is still very good, eat more good food, I guess you won't be able to eat so much delicious food after you go back." The officer from the security department gave the order to see off the guests.
The next second he seemed to remember something, and then added: "By the way, remember this sentence 'Li Bai, Du Fu'."
"Huh?" Cyric's engineer was stunned, stopped, and looked back at the officer opposite.
The officer smiled and said: "The password when someone comes to find you, you ask him if he is Li Bai, and he answers you that he is Du Fu... If the other person admits that he is Li Bai, then he is not one of our people, do you understand?"
A book-chasing app recommended to me by an old book friend I’ve known for ten years! It’s so easy to use. I rely on it to pass the time while driving and before going to bed by reading and listening to books. You can download it here..]
"I understand, I understand..." Cyric's engineer nodded and left the room. As the door to the room was closed, the officer from the security department also drank the wine in the glass.
"He won't be the last." The door on the other side was pushed open, and the bartender from the intelligence department walked in. He was tall and strong.
"Yes, he won't be the last one. Based on our speculation, we estimate that there are still about three nails left in this group of people." The officer nodded and said, "However, someone like this comes to us on his own initiative.
There probably won’t be too many people.”
"It doesn't matter! As long as there is one such person this time." The bartender smiled and looked at the door: "It would be bad to have more people."
"Yes, if they all come to seek refuge, I have to worry about whether someone will add sand to our team." The officer helped the bartender pour a glass of wine and said with a smile.
"You know, there will be people who will keep checking them. As long as they don't die, there will always be people checking them..." The bartender looked down at the drink in the glass and said, "There will be no flaws among our own people, right?"
"You're right." The officer smiled and agreed with the bartender.
