Chapter 637: The launch of the large aircraft project

This kind of thing can't be decided in a day or two, and it can't be done in a hurry, but if it is launched one day earlier, it will be successful one day earlier, so Xu Ziling asked Nie Yunjie and Liu Long to tell the news to a few old men as soon as possible, so that they can prepare early.

Similarly, after going back that night, he told Yang Haisheng and Zhao Xueqin the news, and then made another phone call to Mr. Yang.

Yang Haisheng also has no right to decide this matter, Xu Ziling told him the news, he just nodded, told him to tell the old man about it, and did not express any more opinions.

And the old man's answer was also simple, "Okay, I know the truth, wait for the news." With that, he hung up the phone, without saying the time, or whether there was any cooperation from the military factory.

It's just such a simple sentence that made Xu Ziling feel that the stone in his heart had landed.

Early the next morning, Smith called again and said only three words: "That's it!" ”

"If there is nothing important, you can assist over there for a while and build the factory as soon as possible." Smith and these guys have a certain advantage in doing some things, and the arms business will be temporarily stagnant for a while, so it is better to let them help do something, "If possible, I hope you can form a large mercenary team." ”

"No problem. How many people do you need in the team? "Being a mercenary and forming a mercenary are completely different things, Smith they are no longer mercenaries, they just don't want to live that kind of unchanged life every day, forming a large mercenary team can be said to be every mercenary's dream, and so are they. It's just that when they were mercenaries themselves, although they were famous, every time they bought equipment, intelligence and other necessities, plus they were used to spending money lavishly, they didn't have much money left, and they couldn't support the expenses of a large mercenary team at all.

Later, he became rich, but his identity was different, so when he reached the end, he could only put such a dream in his heart, and at this time, he suddenly heard the news from Xu Ziling's mouth that he was going to form a large mercenary team, Smith didn't think about it, and immediately agreed.

It's their dream! It doesn't matter who he belongs to, but at least they formed it, and that's an honor.

"Three hundred elites, more than a thousand ordinary soldiers." Xu Ziling thought about it and gave such a number.

Before that, he asked Yang Kaiming and Li Cheng to start gathering veterans from the front-line troops in China, these people are all elites, and no matter what the military factory will face in the future, it is impossible to need these elite personnel to dispatch everything, so ordinary soldiers also need it, such as escorting supplies, being responsible for peripheral security or something.

Smith also has his thoughts on this number: Macoola was originally established as a civilian port, but later after "military assistance", it became a military base, and then limited to a hundred private armies, which began to slowly increase, after this year's expansion, the country let the South China Sea Fleet and the East China Sea Fleet draw nearly a thousand troops to station in the port, officially established the first overseas military base, and the military factory side, also increased the number of people, although much less than the regular army, but also reached two hundred people, And all of them are retired from the actual combat unit or special forces.

Now if you form another 300 elites and 1,000 ordinary soldiers, it will be no problem for any country on the African continent to start a small war. I felt that Xu Ziling had other thoughts for forming such an armed team, but Smith was a smart person and didn't ask much.

"Okay, I'll leave this matter to us."

After that, the two discussed some more things on the phone before hanging up the phone.

In the past year, the military factory has not developed much in Makula, except for Gu Hongyuan, who has set up an independent camp in the port, that is, set up an office in the port, and the actual regulation and development of the port are basically the responsibility of the state.

Right now, they need to shift their focus to that side, and then at this speed of development, it will definitely not work, so Xu Ziling immediately asked the lion to make a planning map, and then called Gu Hongyuan: "I have a design plan here, you ask Haijian to transfer some manpower, get it for me within half a year, and I will let people call your account." ”

Gu Hongyuan and Lu Feng are not outsiders, and the plan for the transfer of the military factory to Makula has already been told to them, after receiving a call from Xu Ziling, Gu Hongyuan knew that Smith must have had the result, Makula Port is nominally a military base, but in fact it has general authority to be a military factory, this year, he just watched the country develop here, and they didn't have much movement, he couldn't help it for a long time, Zhilu Dao was going to develop vigorously now, and he immediately became excited.

"No problem, the port infrastructure project is almost underway now, and the people of Haijian are preparing to let some people return to China, just to find something to do for them." He said excitedly.

"Well, you see the specific details, I asked Smith to come over to help you, if you can't be busy, let Smith and them help you watch, site selection, overall design drawings, and construction requirements for each part, you just need to let the people of Haijian follow the construction above, after the main construction is completed, I will go over to get the security system."

In order to make Makula a security fortress like an iron barrel, it is not only air defense that is enough, ground security even if there is a lion's warning, but the appropriate weapon system must also be there, because there can always be ground personnel dispatched for everything, and the necessary automatic defense system must be built.

And these things are the guarantee of the safety of the military factory in the future, and Xu Ziling must handle it himself to rest assured.

After explaining clearly, he immediately sent the design drawings to Gu Hongyuan, and in the next time, while waiting for the old man's news, he got a laser weapon.

Engine, in the name of experiments, let the factory try to produce a few, nuclear reactors, handed over to the people of the Jiangnan plant to get, the laser body, give the parameters of each component, let the people in the laboratory below get it out by hand, and some do it themselves, and then the hydraulic suspension and car body are directly handed over to the people of the northern military industry for OEM.

In order to keep it as confidential as possible, he personally called directly to the place, Wu Zhonghui, who contacted Wu Zhonghui from the Northern Military Industry, Wu Zhonghui looked at the drawings sent by Xu Ziling, he was very curious about what Xu Ziling was going to get, to say that infantry vehicles are not like infantry vehicles, and tanks are not like tanks, but looking at the drawings, it will definitely not be a joke, so he couldn't help but be curious, and asked: "Xu Gong, what are you doing here?" Like a tank? But without a turret, I'm really confused. ”

"It's not new equipment, it's just something I'm playing around, mainly testing the maximum speed of tracked vehicles." Xu Ziling flickered.

There are only some things such as the car body and suspension in the drawings, and there is no engine turret or the like, Wu Zhonghui has a preconceived concept, so he will think that Xu Ziling is making a new land combat weapon, and now listening to his explanation, and then looking at the drawings, he did find that there is this possibility, and he did not doubt it much, because the people who make military products have too many experimental things, and not necessarily every thing that comes out may be transformed into a product that can be mass-produced, so he didn't ask any more, saying that he would help him get it in a month as soon as possible.

For parts such as engines, it takes a little more time to get them out, and the orders for all the parts are sent, and the rest is waiting, so that he has time to pay attention to the large aircraft project.

He had been working on this project for a long time, and the progress was almost at the end, and it took him about a week to pick it up again, and he got everything right.

After dealing with it, he sent this plan to Zheng Wenzhong as soon as possible, "Mr. Zheng, this is a simple heavy transport aircraft plan, do we have time to get together?" ”

Zheng Wenzhong paid attention to the big plane project in Xu Ziling's hands for not a day, two days, and heard that the project plan had come out, he immediately expressed great excitement, knowing that Xu Ziling still had a passenger plane plan in his hand, and immediately said that he would take a faster flight to Star City.

"Okay." Seeing that he would come over, Xu Ziling was just eager to go out for a while, "You can ask your department to verify the feasibility of the transport plane first, I also have the passenger plane plan here, and when you come over, we will discuss it together." ”

"It's good."

Zheng Wenzhong was quite urgent about this matter, and immediately sent the drawings sent by Xu Ziling to the research department, and then asked the assistant to book a ticket to Star City that day, and arrived in Star City in the evening without waiting for the people from the research department to answer.

Xu Ziling is also in a hurry to do things by himself, and he agrees with Zheng Wenzhong's attitude of doing things, and he knows that he came over at night, so he went to the airport with Nie Yunjie and a few people to receive him.

On the way back to the city, Zheng Wenzhong couldn't wait to talk about the aircraft project, of course, it was nothing more than some data on the passenger plane program.

Now Xu Ziling's mature solution is optimized from Boeing's 787, a dual-aisle wide-body, twin-engine medium and long-range passenger aircraft, which is divided into three models, with a maximum of 350 seats and a minimum of 210, with a full load range of 5,000 kilometers to 17,000 kilometers.

Zheng Wenzhong asked, he also replied to him cheerfully: "I now have the program, and Boeing's 787 performance is equivalent, the same is a twin-engine medium and long-range dual-channel wide-body aircraft, the program has been simulated and calculated many times, it can be said that it is completely mature, considering the problem of spare parts, I hope to be able to be 100% localized, so in terms of related production technology and technology, it takes a certain amount of time to process, according to the current progress, it should not be long before the prototype can be produced." ”
