Chapter 370 Gunshots in the Headquarters ([-]rd update, please subscribe)
"Well, when does the train arrive at Nanyuan?"

Luanda asked in a low voice.

Now the sky is only just getting bright, and many passengers in the carriage are sitting on the seats and dozing off.

"It's still early."

The conductor said, and walked into the crew room again.

"This car is really slow!"

For the first time, Luanda felt that the train was too slow, so he walked to his seat.He looked at his watch anxiously.

At this time, it was [-]:[-] in the morning, and the sky was slightly visible outside the car window.The train galloped in the gray light, passing by patches of tree shadows and patches of fields, and the motionless sky receded rapidly.

"It should be possible to rush back today."

Thinking in his heart, he leaned his head on the back of the chair and looked out the window, the morning light shone on him.In the following time, the conductor went back and forth twice, the second time he walked over, he glanced at Luanda, and walked past without saying anything.

"How did the train get so slow today?"

Luanda turned around and stared at the scenery outside the car window as before.

In fact, the train is not slow. A train with a speed of 30 kilometers per hour is normal in the world, but for those who have something to worry about, the train seems to be much slower.

An hour later, the train pulled into Nanyuan Railway Station. As soon as the train entered the station, Lu Anda rushed out with a handbag, as if there was something urgent.

As soon as the man left the train station, he stopped a rickshaw.

"Go to Steel Three Village."

Iron and Steel Three Village is located near Nanyuan Iron and Steel Company, most of the people living there are employees of the company, and Luanda's friends when he was studying in the UK lived there.

"Master, hurry up, I will pay double the price."

Along the way, Lu Anda was very pressing. After about twenty minutes, Lu An arrived at the place. After throwing down a one-dollar silver coupon, he rushed directly to the door, knocked on the door, and yelled.

"Li Lin, Li Lin..."

Li Lin, who was awakened from his dream, yawned and asked.

"Who, who... Huh? An Xue, why are you..."

Ignoring Li Lin's surprise, Luanda asked directly.

"Li Lin, what you said last time!"

"whats the matter?"

"It's the steel plate you mentioned, can you make it?"

"what?"

Li Lin, who hadn't fully woken up, said in surprise.

"It's the new type of steel you mentioned. Didn't you say that the steel plates currently used by the navy are too brittle and have low toughness?"

"Well, hasn't the Navy already used steel-wrought iron to weld armor together, and use wrought iron to improve the overall strength?"

Li Lin adjusted his glasses, yawned and said.

His so-called "steel-wrought iron welded armor" is a kind of naval steel unique to Nanhua, that is, outer steel, inner iron and mixed armor. It is a kind of double-layer composite armor. , using its high temperature to roll it into one.

"I remember that the No. [-] Design Office who invented this armor also won the Nautical Award. They said that they got inspiration from the traditional steel-clad kitchen knife. If the kitchen knife is completely made of steel, the steel is too brittle, and the kitchen knife can't even touch garlic. It will be broken when you shoot it. You can use a steel kitchen knife with outer iron and inner steel. The hardness and toughness have reached a stable level. Hard and tough inside, it can prevent bombardment more effectively. Don’t say that there are many things that can be used for reference in traditional metallurgy. I recently..."

Before Li Lin finished speaking, Luanda, who was a little anxious, said.

"I'm not talking about that, I'm talking about another thing you said a few months ago, what kind of steel you said, yes, alloy steel, you said that the composite steel armor is very general, you should learn from high-speed steel method, to study an alloy steel with high hardness and toughness, this is what I’m talking about!”

Staring at his friend, Luanda asked.

"Has your research been successful? If so, I have a very good idea!"

When studying in the UK, Li Lin studied metallurgy. After returning to China, he joined a steel company as an engineer. While surprised at the advanced technology of Nanhua Steel, he also conducted some research in private, such as alloy steel. Alloy steel can only be used as knife steel—that is, the high-speed steel developed by Zhu Xianhai.

Unlike those people, Li Lin got inspiration from high-speed steel to improve its performance by adding various non-ferrous metals.He has been engaged in research in this area since then.

"I was just researching, and the specific product has not yet been manufactured, but I believe that by adding non-ferrous metals, the performance of steel will definitely be improved, so that it can meet the needs of the army."

"Then get it out!"

Luanda looked at his friend and said.

"Now I have an opportunity, and I need to use your steel plate as a stepping stone."

……

That afternoon, when he was about to get off work, Luanda came to the South China Coast Guard Headquarters. He stood in front of the Coast Guard Commander's office and asked.

"Excuse me, I want to see Chief Li"

"Mr. Li is very busy..."

The officer outside the office said without raising his head.

"He sure doesn't have time to see you!"

"Then he's going to get off work, and I'll wait for him here."

Ruanda said.

"Hey, Mr. Lu, although you are an engineer in the shipyard, you can't do this!"

The officer frowned.

"What? I have something to do with Chief Li. If he's busy, I'll wait for him here!"

Luanda sat directly on the soft chair by the corridor, holding the briefcase and said.

"You can do whatever you want."

the officer muttered.

The wait lasted almost an hour, and the commander's office was not opened until night fell and the lights in the corridor were turned on. Li Xuelin, who was full of smiles, said while talking to the chief of staff.

"This time we can..."

Before he finished speaking, Luanda by the corridor rushed over and said.

"Hello, Mr. Li, I'm Luanda, an engineer from the shipyard, and I have something important to report to you,"

"Shipyard engineer?"

Li Xuelin looked at the young man in surprise,
"Mr. Lu, I still have something to do over there. I don't necessarily have time. We can make another appointment!"

"I'm an engineer in a shipyard, and my business is also very important."

Luanda said directly,

"It's also very important?"

Looking at the engineer in front of him, Li Xuelin looked at his watch again, and said,

"Well, you have five minutes."

Only five minutes is definitely not enough, looking at Chief Li, Luanda hesitated.Just five minutes is not enough for him to explain.Not enough for him to show his ideas and designs.

But what can be done now?

After thinking for a moment, Luanda suddenly made up his mind.

"Okay, I only need a minute!"

As Luanda said, he took out two steel plates the size of a book from his bag, and put them directly on the chair he was sitting on before.

"Mr. Li, look at these two steel plates. What's the difference between them?"

Steel plate?

Isn't it just an ordinary steel plate?
What is the difference between them?

They don't look any different at all.It's just a very ordinary thin steel plate.

When Li Xuelin and others focused their attention on the steel plate, Luanda directly pulled out the pistol from the bag.

"Be careful……"

Almost the moment he drew his pistol, the officer beside Li Anlin pushed him to the back.Another officer turned directly to Ruanda.

The next moment, gunshots rang out, and two successive gunshots echoed in the corridor. When the gunshots echoed in the corridor, a group of officers rushed out of the offices on both sides of the corridor. Some of them held short swords, some Holding a pistol.

"There are assassins!"

The officer who had just thrown Luanda to the ground shouted loudly.

"I'm not an assassin, look at the steel plate, look at the steel plate!"

Luanda, who was overwhelmed to the ground, heard it and shouted loudly

"Look at the steel plate, look at those two steel plates!"

As he shouted, Li Xuelin and others turned their attention to the two steel plates, one of which was pierced, while the other was intact.

Staring at the intact steel plate, Li Xuelin frowned.

"Let him go!"
