Chapter 766: The Roar of the Truck Cannon
"Head, this is our preliminarily assembled 122-mm truck howitzer. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" Wang Hongyi pointed to the truck gun in front of him and introduced it to Jiang Chen.
"122 mm, how is it not 120. Jiang Chen looked at the truck and asked at Wang Hongyi.
Wang Hongyi smiled slightly: "At present, we are still in the development and exploration node, and the 120 caliber cannon howitzer is in the process of improvement, as long as we have this experimental result, once the improvement is completed, it can be installed directly, anyway, there is not much difference." ”
"Yes. Jiang Chen nodded when he heard this. This time, Jiang Chen returned to the B17 factory because Wang Hongyi reported that the truck bag had basically taken shape, and Jiang Chen came back to take a look. Moreover, Jiang Chen's focus of work has been on the company's side for a long time, which will inevitably have a negative impact on the B17 factory, so Jiang Chen still has to show up more. Of course, the leaders in the factory must have opinions about Jiang Chen. But no, as the scale of the company grows more and more, the factory here can't keep up, which makes the factory leaders feel somewhat complicated. They are happy that Jiang Chen has led these unsuccessful boys after just a few years of development, and now the scale of the company is so large, it is one of the best in China. Such a child, such a talented Jiang Chen, how could they not be happy. On the one hand, it is a little sad and sad that they have worked hard for so many years and have been surpassed by a few hairy boys in only a few years, how can they accept it, especially after seeing Jiang Chen and a few boys proud, their self-esteem naturally thinks that they have been hurt. On the other hand, they have high expectations for Jiang Chen, and they have always cultivated him as a successor. But now, this successor actually started a new stove, and he did a good job, even surpassing them, is Jiang Chen still willing to go back and take over the leadership position of the factory, they are beating drums in their hearts.
"What, you want to start a live-fire test today?" Jiang Chen asked with a smile as he looked at them.
Wang Hongyi and a few of them were caught in Jiang Chen's thoughts, and they were embarrassed one by one, Wang Hongyi was a little embarrassed and said: "Well, we have completed the relevant test work in the early stage, and now we will look at the live ammunition. ”
Jiang Chen looked at the truck gun, then looked at Wang Hongyi and said, "You have to check it clearly and be well prepared, once there is an accident, it will hurt people." ”
Wang Hongyi nodded and said seriously: "Head, don't worry, we decided to conduct a live-fire test after we went through strict persistence and demonstration work and determined that there was no problem, otherwise we wouldn't have the courage to do so." ”
"Okay, I approved, how are you going to test it?" Jiang Chen thought for a moment and replied.
Wang Hongyi and the others were very happy when they heard that Jiang Chen agreed, Wang Hongyi said to Jiang Chen: "Don't worry, I have already arranged it." On the opposite side of our weapons test site is arable land, and on the other side of the arable land are uninhabited river beaches and saline wasteland. The distance from the range to there is only about twenty kilometers, which is just enough for the maximum range of our artillery. In the three or four days before today, our people have already gone to this area to do repeated propaganda and investigations, and they are already squatting there, and there will definitely be no surprises. ”
"Okay, in this way, I'll report to the factory leaders first, they should know about such a live-fire test. After speaking, Jiang Chen made a phone call to Chen Guorong, the director of the factory, and explained the specific situation. I thought it would be okay, because it was like this in the past. But I didn't expect Chen Guorong to ask them to wait, he came over in person. This made Jiang Chen a little confused, and also made Wang Hongyi a little worried, is there something wrong.
Soon, Chen Guorong came, but he was followed by Secretary Xu and a group of leaders. Jiang Chen saw such a big formation, and then hurriedly greeted him and said, "Uncle Chen, what's going on, such a big movement?"
Chen Guorong waved his hand at Jiang Chen and said, "Nothing happened, we all came here if we wanted to see it." ”
"Ah, that's it!" Jiang Chen didn't expect it.
Looking at Jiang Chen's expression, Secretary Xu Shijie and Secretary Xu smiled at Jiang Chen and said, "Hehe, we also heard that you are going to experiment with new weapons, so we came over to take a look." This weapon is very important to our factory, so there can be no accidents, and a few of us can't sit still after hearing it, so we came. ”
didn't wait for Jiang Chen to speak, but saw Wang Hongyi reply to Xu Shijie: "Secretary Xu, don't worry, we are confident." ”
"Well, it's good to have confidence, we'll wait to see the results. Xu Shijie also laughed.
Chen Guorong looked at Jiang Chen for a moment, then nodded, "Let's start." ”
Jiang Chen understood and then said to Wang Hongyi: "Okay, let's start when you're ready, today you are the protagonist, I just don't interfere." ”
"Yes!" Wang Hongyi replied, then turned around and got ready.
Soon a team of five testers wearing camouflage uniforms and steel helmets ran up from the side, and then stood in front of Wang Hongyi, only to see one of them come out and shout: "Report, the 122mm truck howitzer live-fire test team is ready, please instruct!"
Wang Hongyi shouted at them: "Implement the plan according to the plan." ”
"Yes!" As the man answered, and then returned to the team, the whole team ran to the side of the truck gun, and then got into the car. The car started, and then quickly drove into the test site, and Jiang Chen was about eighty meters away from them and stopped. Then five people quickly got out of the cab, and two of them ran to the sides of the car, and quickly put down the two supports on both sides of the truck's turf, that is, the 'gun carriage' against the ground. The other three jumped into the car and quickly adjusted the angle of the gun's fire. After only a few commands, the second gunner took out a 122 mm grenade from several closed iron boxes in front of the truck compartment, which was actually the ammunition box, and under the order of the gun commander, the first gunner opened the gun latch, the second gunner sent the shell into the gun chamber, and then the first gunner closed the gun latch. Then the second gunner began to assist the first gunner to confirm the angle and bearing, and after the determination, with the order of the gunner, the first gunner pulled the gun rope.
The cannon then fired, and a fierce burst of fire and smoke erupted from the muzzle of the cannon to propel the shell quickly towards the intended area. The huge artillery recoil made the entire truck gun tremble violently, and it took a long time to calm down. After the smoke, I saw that a few pieces of car glass in the cab of the truck still couldn't withstand the violent vibration and burst open, and even the front windshield was shocked into small particles and broken patterns of spider webs.
However, Wang Hongyi and the factory leaders didn't seem to see these details, and they celebrated one after another. Jiang Chen smiled at this, and then let them go. Compared to these minor flaws and shortcomings, being able to successfully launch is a huge success, how can you not be happy. (To be continued.) )
