Chapter 254: I Was Wrong
"Impossible, absolutely impossible, how can Chinese be a bibase propellant......"
Shen Cheng, in the hotel where Soviet experts stayed, Rogozin was sitting on the sofa, on the coffee table in front of him, there were several empty wine bottles, and one of his big heads shook like a rattle, and his trembling lips kept squirming, repeating the same sentence as if chanting.
And since yesterday in the military chemical workshop of the Baiyun Plant, Rogozin has been talking non-stop as if he had hysteria, and there is no way, Rogozin, who thought he had a killer weapon, really couldn't accept this cruel fact.
You know, in Rogozin's thinking, China is a weak country with no technical capabilities, able to produce some basic bullets and grenades, even if it is an extremely rare achievement, as for more advanced ammunition do not need to think at all, the Chinese will definitely not be able to make it.
The ammunition attached to the No. 2 recoilless gun, which is now being developed, is a typical example, because the foundation of the military chemical industry is thin, and the attached rockets have quite serious defects in even the most basic initiating charge, not to mention the more technically difficult propellant.
Because of this, when Rogozin received Kutuzov's report, he immediately concluded that the Baiyun Plant must have received the information on the chemical ratio of ammunition transmitted by Bai Yi, otherwise it would be impossible for China to make a technological breakthrough in rockets in such a short period of time.
It turned out that instead of causing any harm to the Chinese, his killing move almost cost him half his life, and only later did he find out that what he threw out was not a flying knife at all, but TM's boomerang, he was very unwilling, but there was no way at all, so he could only hide in the house and scold his mother, scolding his mother for three whole days.
"Bang dang!"
Just when Rogozin poured two mouthfuls of vodka and was about to scold again, the door suddenly opened from the outside, and Rogozin, who was already angry, was about to take out his anger on the unlucky ghost who broke in, but he didn't expect that when he saw the person standing at the door, the words that had just come to his mouth made him swallow it back.
As for the face of panic and hope, as if a drowning person, grabbing the trunk of a life-saving tree, he rushed to the visitor in one step, grabbed the latter's arm, and shouted eagerly: "Professor Yaktoev, you have finally returned, my prediction should be correct, Chinese must have made a fake in the chemical workshop of the Baiyun Plant, just like a series of performances, in order to drive us back to the Soviet Union......"
"It's not us, it's you!"
Before Rogozin finished roaring frantically, he was choked by Yaktoev's words and couldn't make any more sound, stood in place for a long time, and then shook his head with a gloomy expression and retreated, until he tripped on the sofa, then he collapsed on the sofa and muttered with a desolate face: "How can this be? How can the Chinese get a double-base propellant, they don't have this level, there is definitely a problem in it, Professor Yaktoev, you should know best, there is definitely a problem inside! ”
In the last sentence, Rogozin almost roared, he knew very well that if he grasped the handle of this matter, it would be a great achievement, and once he failed, it would be a tragic end waiting for him, China, as a red country in terms of territory second only to the Soviet Union, was a strong pillar of the Asian national liberation movement.
Even if Stalin was suspicious out of the inertial thinking of great power chauvinism, it was still necessary to maintain a long-term alliance with China for the sake of long-term national interests, which meant that Stalin had to seek a good balance between control and cooperation, so that China could not only charge for the Soviet Union like the Korean War, but not be too strong, and at the same time be grateful to the Soviet Union.
And what Rogozin has done has gone beyond Stalin's bottom line, and he knows very well that once the Chinese side reports his remarks at Baiyunchang that undermined relations between the two countries to Moscow, not to mention Kutuzov, even Beria, who has great energy, will not be able to save him.
What's more, there are a lot of selfish interests that are not enough for outsiders, and it makes him guilty, thinking of this, every pore on his body exudes a bone-chilling cold, with his mind is not unaware of these consequences before, but his self-confidence overcomes reason, which makes him stupid today, no way, who makes the Chinese much smarter than he imagined.
So the throbbing of fear finally drowned out the poor self-esteem, and he knelt in front of Yaktoev with a puff, hugged the latter's thigh, and said in pain: "Professor, for the sake of me being your student, help me, I don't want to die, I really don't want to die, please...... What do you do? You can't arrest me, I don't want to go back...... Professor Yaktoev, help me...... Help me......"
Just as Rogozin was holding Yaktoev's thighs and weeping bitterly, several tall men in black, like demons rushing out of hell, pulled Rogozin out with three strikes and five divisions.
But his shouting, like a weak girl among the wolves, can only provoke more fierce ferocity, and if the only effect is perhaps only Yaktoev's torn pants......
"I'm sorry to make you laugh!"
After Rogozin was escorted away, Yaktoev glanced indifferently at the nervous Rogozin, there was no sympathy on his face, but there was a touch of imperceptible schadenfreude in his eyes, but as soon as he turned his head, indifference turned into flattery, nodded vigorously at the visitor, and immediately took out a document from the briefcase and handed it to the visitor: "This is what the director wants, all of them have been drafted, please review them!" ”
The person who came took the document, glanced at the title of the "Report on China's Military Strength", flipped a few more pages and looked at it, and then nodded with satisfaction: "I think Comrade Kutuzov will definitely be satisfied, otherwise he would not have killed Rogozin for you, well, to put it mildly, this guy knows too much...... Oh, by the way, do you think China has come up with a dual-base propellant? ”
"Haha, please put the leaders of Moscow in their stomachs, even what we haven't come up with, China...... Hehe, it's just a big talk! ”
"Then I'll be relieved!" After speaking, the person who came nodded politely at Yaktoev, and then turned around and left in style......
At the same time, in distant Siberia, Stuttenberg looked at Bai Yi who left in a dashing manner, couldn't say a word for a long time, looked at several sets of chemical equations in the snow with a face purpurer than an eggplant, shook his head violently, and then chased after him frantically, and shouted while running: "Chief Bai, wait, I was wrong, I was really wrong......
