Chapter 139: Improvements

"Are you kidding?" Henry laughed, "Produce equipment that can deal with machine monsters? ”

This is indeed a bit unbelievable, because Qin Tian is a mercenary, he may have excellent military qualities, or a little clever, or maybe some means can get some drawings or something from somewhere, but to say that a certain equipment is developed in a targeted manner...... Henry thought it was just a fantasy.

However, when Henry saw Qin Tian's serious face, the smile on his face slowly changed to cautious.

"You can't tell the truth, can you?" Henry asked.

Qin Tian didn't answer and asked: "Otherwise, what do you think my machine tool laboratory is used for?" ”

Soon, Henry and Qin Tian appeared in the machine tool laboratory.

A hint of surprise flashed in White's eyes when he saw Henry, because this machine tool laboratory is absolutely secret, and no outsiders, including Henry, are allowed to enter, which is why the guards of the machine tool laboratory are from "ghosts".

"Hello, Chairman!" After a moment of hesitation, White shook Henry's hand: "Nice to meet you!" ”

Henry didn't answer, a little embarrassed smile appeared on his face, and then glanced at Qin Tian.

Henry suddenly realized that it had only been more than a month before and after, and these engineers who had been his subordinates seemed to have completely sided with Qin Tian.

This made Henry a little incredulous, and he couldn't figure out what method Qin Tian used to do this.

Qin Tian just raised his eyebrows and didn't explain this.

What Henry doesn't understand is that sometimes it's not just about money, like these engineers...... On top of the money, they can also prove their worth in their careers, which will give them a spiritual enjoyment.

To put it more specifically, watching the equipment they produce and develop work on the battlefield to defeat the enemy to the ground can give them a great sense of accomplishment, and this sense of accomplishment is often more important than money, at least for these engineers who are obsessed with technology.

This can be seen in many scientists, such as Nobel, who had a fortune that could not be used up in several lifetimes, but still indulged in the research of explosives, which even nearly killed him several times.

If you look at it from the point of view of money and profit, Nobel's actions can obviously be described by the word "crazy", but if you look at it from the point of view of spiritual pursuit and exploration of mysteries, this is quite normal.

At this time, White and a group of engineers had this kind of spiritual pursuit, and Qin Tian had countless mysteries on him...... To be exact, it was in Qin Tian's mind.

"Any progress?" Qin Tian asked.

"Uh, yes!" White replied, "I was about to report back to you......"

As he spoke, he glanced at Henry warily.

Qin Tian nodded and said that there was no problem, and being able to bring Henry here meant that he didn't plan to keep it a secret.

White took the two to the shooting range...... The range was newly opened for the production of new Barrett and conversion devices.

THERE ARE A FEW PEOPLE IN THE SHOOTING RANGE TRYING OUT THE GUN, THE 25MM CALIBER SNIPER RIFLE IS NOMINALLY A GUN, BUT IN FACT IT IS MORE SUITABLE TO BE CALLED A "GUN...... THOSE WITH A CALIBER GREATER THAN 20MM CAN BE CALLED "CANNONS".

As the gunmen pulled the trigger again and again, the gunshots sounded like grenade explosions again and again, and even a puff of dust was kicked up around them, and then the steel plates hundreds of meters away had more bullet holes in the Mars.

“XM109?” Henry raised an eyebrow.

The "hunting" mercenaries use all kinds of American equipment, including various types of Barrett sniper rifles, so Henry is no stranger to this.

"You think it can handle a machine monster?" Henry laughed, "I'm not sure, but I know it's not going to be that simple!" ”

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency, Chairman!" White replied, "We don't think it's that simple, it's that you think it's that simple!" ”

"What do you mean?" There was some unhappiness on Henry's face, no one could talk to him like this in "Hunting", but that was before.

"You're right!" "That's the Barrett XM109, but it's not!" Take a closer look at ......"

Henry came a little closer, looked at it for a long time, and then said, "Uh-huh, there is an extra shoulder pad...... But that's just to protect the shoulders and reduce recoil! ”

"'Just'?" White laughed, "It's not 'just,' chairman. We call it a converter, and it converts half of the recoil to the ground, so the shooter can withstand recoil beyond the limits of the human body if the conditions are right, so we can modify the ammunition to make it more penetrating! ”

"You're saying we're only improving ammunition?" Qin Tian interjected.

"Yes!" White replied: "We don't really need to do anything, we don't need to expand the caliber of the gun, we don't need to make any improvements, we just need to purify the bullet's propellant...... The bullets made in this way will have stronger armor-piercing power! ”

"Good way!" Qin Tian nodded and praised: "It's simple and applicable!" ”

"If it's that simple, why don't they do it?" Henry asked.

"One of the reasons why they didn't do it was because of economic problems!" "Using a highly purified propellant per bullet triples the cost, which makes it impossible to equip the army in bulk," White explained. On the other hand, the human body cannot withstand the recoil caused by this propellant, and we have solved these two problems very well! ”

It is indeed well solved, the former is the problem of "money", the problem of "money" is a small problem, and the latter is handed over to the converter.

"So......" Henry asked, "how much of an improvement in its performance?" ”

"See the steel plate they shot at?" White asked, "800 meters away!" ”

"Of course!" Henry replied that it was a humanoid steel plate, in fact, larger than a human, and because it was made to the size of a robotic monster, it was still easy to see even though it was 800 meters away.

White handed Henry a telescope.

Henry replied impatiently, "I said, I can see it!" ”

As he spoke, he took the telescope and looked at the steel plate in the distance.

"IT'S A 70MM THICK STEEL PLATE!" White said.

"What?" Henry put down his binoculars and looked at White in astonishment.

HENRY, WHO WAS INVOLVED IN SHIPBUILDING, KNEW WHAT A 70MM THICK STEEL PLATE MEANT.

“70MM?” Henry looked at White in disbelief.

"Yes!" WHITE NODDED: "70MM, THAT UIS UUTHAT UUWORDS...... IT CAN EASILY PENETRATE MACHINE MONSTERS AT A DISTANCE OF 800 METERS, IF THE ARMOR OF THE ROBOT MONSTER IS ONLY 50MM! Even at 1000 meters, it is still possible to do this! ”
