Chapter 2137 I Need a Generator

On the sixth day, the sky was clear, the temperature began to rise, and the snow gradually melted.

On the muddy road, Yang Xiaotao drove to the machinery factory.

After the New Year, the factory gradually became busy.

The honors from the previous year have become a thing of the past, and the honors of the future are still unknown. People who are stimulated by the rewards from the performances are holding their breath to do a great job before the end of the first month of the year.

"Commander, you promised us this."

"The Second Ministry of Machine Building should return it to us after it is used. Why did it go to the Chinese Academy of Sciences?"

"Chief, don't do this anymore. Let us study it. If we study it thoroughly, we might be able to come up with something better."

"Chief."

As soon as he entered the office, he heard the phone on the desk ringing. Yang Xiaotao hurried forward to pick it up, and then heard the voice of Mr. Chen.

Sure enough, the machine tool belonging to them had just been taken away by the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and their worries became a reality.

"There's no need to promise so much. I'm telling you this just to let you know that things are dead, but solutions are alive."

"We need to use the best steel on the blade, do you understand?"

"that's it."

After Mr. Chen finished speaking, he hung up the phone. Yang Xiaotao held the phone in his hand for a long time.

Well, this is pure cheating.

patter
After hanging up the phone, Yang Xiaotao sat on the chair helplessly.

Now the gas turbine production in a workshop has entered the final stage. I believe it won’t be long before the first gas turbine can be assembled.

Production of the second unit has already begun.

Although there were many problems in the production process, as Mr. Chen said, there is always a way to save the living.

For now we can only rely on the workers.

After calming down, Yang Xiaotao took out the design drawing and continued to modify it.

Unexpectedly, the phone rang again. After Yang Xiaotao picked it up, before he could say anything, a lame voice came from the other end.

"Brother Tao, Happy New Year!"

Well, you know who it is right away, Albert.

But this guy must have a misunderstanding about the Chinese New Year. New Year's greetings must also be given on the first day of the new year.

It's already the sixth day of the New Year.

Yang Xiaotao thought about it, then quickly said in Persian, "Thank you, Albert."

"I didn't expect to receive your blessing. It was such a surprise."

“Haha, Brother Tao, I also heard from my father that you guys are celebrating this New Year.”

Albert explained with a smile, and then talked about recent developments.

During the interview, he asked Yang Xiaotao whether he had understood the structure of the machine tool, as he was still waiting to send someone to learn.

Yang Xiaotao did not tell the truth. After all, family disgrace should not be made public. He just said that it was still under study.

Alfat was not surprised. According to the experts sent by France, this was the essence of French machinery. It was difficult for ordinary engineers to start it, let alone study it.

"By the way, Brother Tao. I have something to trouble you with."

Alfate suddenly spoke, and Yang Xiaotao sat up straight. The trouble that could make Alfate speak must be no small matter.

After all, they have money.

Nowadays, money can solve most problems, especially in a foreign environment.

It’s not like in China, if you have money but no tickets, you can only drink the soup and can’t even get noodles.

"You said, the thing I'm least afraid of here is trouble."

Alfat was very happy to hear this, "We bought a lot of your armored vehicles, and our people responded very well."

"But I still feel that the firepower is a little lacking. I want to ask if there is any way to increase the firepower intensity."

"It would be best if the 76mm tank gun could be replaced with a 100mm smoothbore gun, and of course it would be even better if it could be replaced with a 125mm howitzer."

"It will be a deterrent if we drive it out like this."

Alfat expressed his request seriously, and Yang Xiaotao almost rolled his eyes when he heard it.

Brother, this is an armored vehicle, not a tank, okay?

Why do you need a tank gun on an armored vehicle that relies on speed?

Besides, aren’t 107 rockets useful?
This thing can hit tanks with every hit.

“I really can’t put this on.”

Yang Xiaotao said realistically that the technology of the Kuiniu armored vehicle has already been finalized, and any further changes would only backfire.

Alfat was a little disappointed when he heard Yang Xiaotao say this.

"However, armored vehicles cannot be loaded, but tanks can be loaded."

"Tanks? Your tanks?"

Alfate searched his memory, but couldn't seem to think of a suitable one.

"Yes, but not what we are using now. We are going to shoot a simple, fast and more powerful tank."

Yang Xiaotao spoke up at the right time and said that this was not a hoax, but there really was a "main battle tank" project.

"Really?"

"Of course, when we make it, we'll give you one to try."

"Okay, then you have to hurry up. If you need any help, just tell me."

"Well, I need your help with something."

Now that things have come to this, Yang Xiaotao will not be polite to him.

And he actually thought of a tricky thing.

The last time he asked each branch to report its purchasing plan, he took a look at it.

Although most factories are aiming to "stock up", some factories do have problems.

As one branch factory mentioned, the factory’s electricity consumption is insufficient.

Because they are located in the suburbs, the electricity supply is far less than that of factories in the city.

The thermal power station responsible for power supply is not very large, and the generator set it uses has a capacity of only 8,000 kilowatts, so the amount of electricity generated is really not much.

Of course, machinery factories do consume a lot of electricity.

Apart from anything else, when the machines in the main factory are turned on, the daily electricity consumption is a huge number.

We have just asked for their machine tools and medical equipment. If we ask for more, we will easily be criticized.

But having two generators shouldn't be a problem.

Thinking of this, Yang Xiaotao also became shameless. "Brother Tao, you say."

Alfat did not feel impatient at all. On the contrary, he felt that he was the one who troubled Yang Xiaotao first, and he would feel better if he could help.

"Generator, I need a high-power generator!"

"Can you get a generator?"

Yang Xiaotao said bluntly.

"A high-power generator set? This is a bit difficult. Let me give it a try."

Generators are neither difficult nor complicated to make. Everyone knows the principle, which is to generate electricity by cutting electromagnetic waves.

But it is not easy to get a large-scale generator set.

Moreover, this kind of large equipment is highly protected no matter which country it is in.

It would be best if Arafat agreed to help. You know, Persia now has very good relations with Western countries, and even the United States is close.

Just look at the planes they fly in the sky and you'll know what's going on.

The two talked in the room for a while before Alfat was ready to hang up the phone.

"By the way, Brother Tao, the little gourd you sent me is really magical. I sleep very well now, and I feel full of energy when I wake up the next day."

"Your Chinese things are really amazing."

"As long as you like it, I'll take you to see it next time you come to China."

"Okay, it's a deal."

The two of them hung up the phone. Yang Xiaotao rubbed his ears. They had been talking for so long and the sound on the phone was so loud that he had to strain to understand. His ears were almost deformed.

After hanging up the phone, Yang Xiaotao took out a stack of design drawings from the drawer. This was a twelve-cylinder diesel engine designed for a main battle tank.

There are also twelve-cylinder diesel engines in China, like the one used in the current Type 59 tank, which was learned from the Alliance and uses a twelve-cylinder water-cooled diesel engine.

However, the horsepower of this engine is less than 600, which is not as good as the eight-cylinder engine in the machinery factory.

Last time, Secretary Tan from Lucheng came to ask about the engine. They want to research a heavy tank, which is also the mainstream trend of tank development. However, Yang Xiaotao is not optimistic about this.

He still prefers faster and more powerful main battle tanks.

Therefore, if the design drawings of the twelve cylinders were taken out at that time, their precious gem would only be covered in dust.

It would be better to use it on your own tanks.

"We had agreed with the Lucheng Tank Factory that we would work together to develop tanks."

"It's the beginning of the new year. When Liu Xiangdong and his team come back, it's time to get back on track."

From the northwest, the cold wind blew away the dust raised by the wheels, covering the long convoy.

This is a convoy consisting of Kuiniu armored vehicles and Type 59 tanks.

The heavy car body rolled over the cold Gobi Desert, and the rumbling sound continued.

Farmers passing by along the way became alert when they saw the size of the convoy, but then relaxed when they saw the logo on the vehicles and continued to work.

In the lead car of the convoy.

This is a special Kuiniu armored vehicle.

There were no weapons on the roof, but instead long antennas and a row of pipes on the side.

In the car, Wang Huzi and Zhu Lao sat together, with Liu Xiangdong and Wu Bayi who came with them.

At this moment, Wang Huzi and Zhu Lao were talking and laughing, and they were very warm.

Mr. Zhu no longer looked as destitute as when he left the old city. He looked as bright and cheerful as if the sun had risen.

"Old Wang, I thought Han Xuanfeng was good enough, and I was secretly competing with him."

"As a result, you have quietly created an armored brigade here."

"Awesome! Awesome! I admire you!"

Mr. Zhu knocked on the armored vehicle, and it was obvious at a glance that it was no ordinary stuff.

Even the latest model, the Kuiniu II, is not as good as this one.

Wang Huzi smiled proudly, "This armored vehicle was specially modified to look like a command vehicle."

"We can contact other command vehicles at any time from here, and pass messages while on the move, which is convenient for pre-battle command."

After hearing this, Mr. Zhu smacked his lips and asked, "Was this car modified by the machinery factory?"

Wang Huzi smiled and nodded.

Zhu Lao sighed again, "Back then, I got a batch of excavators from them, which was a big help. I won a game against Han Xuanfeng."

"I never expected that my excavator was just a scrap. All the good stuff is in your hands!"

"It's not fair. It's not fair!"

Wang Huzi had heard these words a lot in the past two days, especially when he saw the modified tank. When it was driven out that night, this guy almost slept in it.

But it's true that as commanders and fighters, we all know what a one-thousand-meter night vision means.

In response to this change, they have developed several night combat plans.

This is what Yang Xiaotao said, technology drives tactical innovation.

Therefore, he attached great importance to the equipment brought by the machinery factory this time.

Maybe this is another thing that can improve combat power.

Thinking of this, Wang Huzi looked at Liu Xiangdong again.

While the two were talking, Liu Xiangdong was also in deep thought.

At this time, everyone had walked along the same path and were already familiar with each other.

Although Liu Xiangdong was not clear about Mr. Zhu's identity, it was clear from the performance of Wu Bayi and others that this old man was not a simple person.

Of course, it can also be seen from the old man’s daily words and deeds.

So Liu Xiangdong still maintained the proper respect.

He even had a vague feeling that the reason why he had to spend years on the train was related to the old man in front of him.

However, he didn't want to care about these things. As long as he could complete the task and realize his own value, nothing else mattered.

"Director Liu!"

At this time, Wang Huzi's voice came, and Liu Xiangdong looked up suddenly, "Chief!"

"Director Liu, you've worked hard this time in the Northwest! You didn't even have a good New Year. I'll ask Xiao Tao to remember your achievement later!"

"You're welcome, Chief!"

Liu Xiangdong quickly said modestly, "When I was working in the factory, I only went home to eat dinner at night."

“It’s just that this year is special, but it’s more meaningful.”

Mr. Zhu laughed and said, "That's right, it's my first time to spend New Year's Eve on a train too!"

"You know what, the sound of the train is much louder than firecrackers!"

Everyone laughed when they heard this.
