Chapter 395: High-strength materials
Zhao Zhongyao originally wanted to participate in the development of grenades this time, but thinking about it, Zhang Lianying and Chen Dongshan are both experts in the development of grenades and firearms. Since you want someone else to develop it, you don't have to participate in it. It also gives them some face, and it's not bad to see how these two old guys have been doing well lately. Zhao Zhongyao really thinks that the two of them have already learned!
But how did Zhao Zhongyao know that these two old guys were trying to embarrass him!
In this way, after a few more days, Chen Dongshan and Zhang Lianying designed a new type of grenade.
The two of them brought the drawings to Zhao Zhongyao.
"Director Zhao, come, take a look, we have designed the drawings of the grenade, and in a few days, we can start production. ”
Zhang Lianying and Chen Dongshan came to Zhao Zhongyao's office together and put a grenade design drawing in front of Zhao Zhongyao.
Zhao Zhongyao took the drawings and looked at them for a while, and felt that the grenades designed by these two people were already very backward delayed fuse grenades in his impression. A long wooden handle, and a cylindrical iron sheet, wrapped around the head of the wooden handle. Such a grenade, in Zhao Zhongyao's mind, has only been seen in some movies of the Anti-Japanese War genre.
"Damn, what kind of grenade is designed, it's just scrap metal. After Zhao Zhongyao looked at the design drawings of Chen Dongshan and Zhang Lianying, he scolded them in his heart.
But he just scolded them in his heart, and he didn't want to make them ugly on face. So he still smiled and said to Chen Dongshan and Zhang Lianying: "Well, the design is good, is it very advanced! Then in two days, when the machine tool is in place, we can produce this kind of grenade." ”
Zhang Lianying looked at Zhao Zhongyao and said: "We have already designed the grenade, but it is still a little difficult to develop it. ”
"Why, isn't it just an ordinary grenade!" Zhao Zhongyao pretended not to know what was so special about this grenade they designed.
"No, Director Zhao, don't look at the fact that our grenade is not much different from ordinary grenades in appearance, but in terms of development materials. There is still a big difference. Zhang Lianying pointed to the drawings as he spoke, showing them to Zhao Zhongyao.
"What's the difference, I think it's all the same!" Zhao Zhongyao pretended to be puzzled.
"Look here, haven't we already marked it! The elastic skin of the grenade that Lao Chen and I designed this time. It is not an ordinary iron sheet to use. Rather, it is a special alloy steel, which is much harder than the general iron sheet. This increases the explosive power of the grenade. ”
Zhang Lianying said as he pointed to the design of the grenade material in the drawings they designed. and explained it to Zhao Zhongyao again.
After Zhao Zhongyao looked at it, he felt that the grenade designed by these two guys had no explosive effect at all. It's just that it's louder when it explodes.
"Chen Gong, Zhang Gong. I feel that the grenade you designed is different from the normal grenade, that is, the sound of the explosion. Your grenades made of special alloy steel will be louder than ordinary grenades when they explode. To talk about its effect, it may have some deterrent effect on the enemy psychologically. I don't see any other effects. ”
Zhao Zhongyao is a scientist who has been reborn from the 21st century to this backward world in the military industry. For the backward grenade in front of him, he could see many problems at a glance, but Zhang Lianying and Chen Dongshan still felt how advanced the grenade they designed!
"Yes! So, Director Zhao is also very familiar with the design of grenades. Can you tell us about how we can design a grenade with a more explosive power? When Zhang Lianying heard Zhao Zhongyao's words, he was a little unconvinced. I think, you, Zhao Zhongyao, may be better than us in the development of missiles, but you may not be better than us in the development of grenades. You say so. I'd like to see what you can say.
"I didn't specialize in grenades, though. But I still know a little bit about materials science. I feel that to increase the explosive power of a grenade, it is not a question of what high-strength alloy steel is used, but how to increase the number of fragments produced when the grenade explodes.
The power of a grenade is not about how loud it is capable of producing when it explodes. Rather, it is said that when a grenade explodes, the number of fragments produced can kill and wound how much living force can be killed at an effective distance. Not that the sound of the explosion can intimidate many living forces.
I feel that when you both designed this grenade, you made a mistake in the design concept in the first place. I don't think your grenades are very powerful. Zhao Zhongyao looked at the drawings designed by Zhang Lianying and Chen Dongshan, and pointed out to their faces that the grenades they designed were not very good.
This time. Chen Dongshan was a little unconvinced. If you want to say that before, the two of them were people with their tails between their legs, it was because Zhao Zhongyao was instructing them to do some work done by workers, and the two of them were naturally a little reluctant. But I had to do it.
And this time let them design the grenade, they are all experts, but they 'worked hard' to design it, but they were denied by Zhao Zhongyao, and the two of them were naturally a little unconvinced.
"Well, it seems that Director Zhao is not only an expert in missile development. Well, if you don't practice the fake style, can you also design a grenade, and let's develop them together, and then have an explosion competition to see who develops the most powerful grenade!"
When Chen Dongshan heard Zhao Zhongyao's words, he was a little angry in his heart. So he began to call Zhao Zhongyao!
Now for Chen Dongshan and Zhang Lianying, there is no need to pretend to be afraid of Zhao Zhongyao. Because on other matters, the two of them quarreled with Zhao Zhongyao, and if they didn't listen to Zhao Zhongyao's arrangement, Zhao Zhongyao could also deal with them with some regulations of the base.
But in some technical disputes, and some weapons design matters, no matter how Zhang Lianying and Chen Dongshan argued with Zhao Zhongyao, he had no right to punish others. He can't say that you two have quarreled with me, and you two have also violated the rules of the base, and I will punish you. This is unreasonable.
"Do you really want to compete with me!" Zhao Zhongyao knew that any kind of grenade he designed might be much more advanced than their design. But he really didn't want to embarrass the two old guys. Because, after all, the two of them are experts in the development of grenades and firearms, so they have to save some face.
"Of course, we know that you can develop a large weapon like missiles, but I don't know if you can develop a small weapon like a grenade, and from our conversation just now, you are also very confident in the development of grenades.
Let's have a contest then! To be honest, the two of us have developed bombs and firearms all our lives, and we really haven't met any opponents. Since Director Zhao wants to compete with us. We were both very happy to be with us. ”
Zhang Lianying saw that this was really an opportunity, if he defeated Zhao Zhongyao this time, then the position of the two of them in Zhao Zhongyao's heart would naturally be higher.
"Okay. Let's make a grenade, too! Let's see who is more advanced in our grenade. ”
Zhao Zhongyao knew that Chen Dongshan and Zhang Lianying had designed this kind of grenade. If it is developed, it will not be good at all, and this grenade will be exported abroad. At the same time, it also made Zhao Zhongyao very faceless, after all, this kind of grenade was developed by their base. How can such an ordinary and backward grenade open up the arms market?
Therefore, Zhao Zhongyao decided to design an advanced grenade by himself, so that if the grenade designed by himself defeated the grenade designed by Zhang Lianying and Chen Dongshan, then the two of them naturally would not agree to put the grenade they developed on the arms market.
"Alright, that's it, we're over, you design your new grenade! We also hope that Director Zhao can help us get the special materials needed for this kind of grenade, otherwise, we will not be able to produce this advanced grenade. ”
When the two of them left, they didn't forget to tell Zhao Zhongyao, asking him to help them get the alloy steel of the new grenade they wanted to develop!
If we can find the kind of high-strength alloy steel you said in our country, I will help you get some. But if our country doesn't have the kind of high-strength alloy steel you said, I can't do it, and I can't develop this alloy for you myself. This qiē depends on the meaning of the superior leader. ”
Zhao Zhongyao knew that he had never encountered the alloy steel needed for this kind of grenade designed by Zhang Lianying and Chen Dongshan before. Now he is going to make this steel for the two old guys, and he himself is not sure.
"Okay. Then it will trouble Director Zhao, whether it is the kind of steel we want or not, as long as it is high-strength. We just wanted a high-strength steel. ”
Zhang Lianying also knows that the steel they want may not be able to be found in the steel market in China. There is really no way, and it can only be replaced by other steel. Because they both want steel. In fact, even the two of them themselves didn't know very well, but they just casually imagined such a kind of steel, the purpose was to embarrass Zhao Zhongyao.
After the two finished speaking, they went back to their office.
Zhao Zhongyao looked at the backs of the two of them, and scolded in his heart: "Hmph, two old guys, this is deliberately giving me a problem! Okay, I'll give you some high-strength steel to see what bird grenades you two can develop." ”
Thinking of this, Zhao Zhongyao picked up the phone on the desk.
"Jingle bell! Jingle bell!" Zhao Zhongyao dialed Director Liu's phone.
"Director Liu, I'm Zhao Zhongyao. ”
"What's the matter, it can't be the business of those two old guys again!"
As soon as Director Liu heard that it was Zhao Zhongyao's voice, he guessed whether it would be Chen Dongshan and Zhang Lianying's matter again, because Zhao Zhongyao had also told Director Liu about the two of them, and he really didn't want these two old guys to stay at the base, so he wanted to transfer the two of them back online!
But Director Liu said that although these two old guys are not popular, they were arranged by the leaders of the General Armament Department to the 308 base. It's not for him to have the final say. If these two old guys want to be transferred back, it must be agreed by the general assembly leader, and it is not so simple.
"I really let Director Liu guess it, it's really a matter of these two old guys. ”
"What's wrong with them, they're disobedient again. ”
"No, since the last time I scared them, they have been much more 'obedient' and don't dare to disobey my orders anymore. ”
"What's the matter then, isn't it good!" Liu Linfeng heard Zhao Zhongyao's words, he was a little incomprehensible, since the two old guys are quite obedient, then what are you Zhao Zhongyao calling me!
"They're giving me a problem!"
"What a problem!"
"They designed a new type of grenade. Need a high-strength alloy steel, our base has just been established, there is no basic materials, let alone high-strength alloy steel, so, the two of them, old guys, want me to get them some high-strength alloy steel, I have no choice, this can only call you, I don't know if you have it in the equipment department, can you transport some first. ”
Zhao Zhongyao told Director Liu about the problems he encountered.
When Liu Linfeng heard this, he smiled and said to Zhao Zhongyao: "Haha, it turns out that this is the case, then what do you think of the grenades designed by these two old guys, is it very advanced, if they think it is advanced, of course we have to support them and get them some high-strength alloy steel, but if it is not good, then just shoot their design drawings into the cradle." Save them some of the raw materials from wasting it. ”
As the main leader of the Jianghai Armament Department and a leader of the General Armament Department. Liu Linfeng knew very well why the higher-ups transferred Chen Dongshan and Zhang Lianying to the newly established 308 base. It is also very clear why Zhao Zhongyao should be the leader of the 308 base, which is to let the new generation of military talents replace the older generation of military talents.
This is a test for the two old guys, if they can't endure hardships and can't develop any advanced weapons, then let them retire a little earlier, and then replace them with some young military talents.
Now that he heard what Zhao Zhongyao said, of course he asked Zhao Zhongyao first whether the grenades designed by these two old guys were advanced. If it doesn't feel good, it's just a 'click'. Save the waste of manpower and material resources.
"Director Liu, what do you tell me to say? I feel that the grenades designed by the two old guys are quite okay! At least they can deter the enemy in terms of sound. ”
Zhao Zhongyao knew that if he directly said that the grenades designed by Zhang Lianying and Chen Dongshan were not very good, then Director Liu would not let the grenade drawings designed by the two of them go through Guò, and the two of them would not want to develop any advanced grenades.
