When I returned to the gate of Guangming Factory, I saw Pei Lei standing there anxiously turning back and forth, and as soon as he saw Li Lu coming back, he ran up without waiting for the car to stop, and Zhang Weiwei hurriedly stepped on the brakes in advance.

"Pei Gong, what's going on?" Li Lu has become accustomed to Pei Lei's infrequent madness.

At this time, Tang Jiu and Li Yaohua had already gone back, and Li Lu and Zhang Weiwei went back to work in the factory. As for Mitsui Nohara and Jack, they have also regained their freedom, so why should they go. Li Lu didn't worry about them going back on their backs, as long as they still wanted to do business in the Lugang area.

Pei Lei almost dragged Li Lu's arm inside, and said excitedly as he walked, "The lightweight armored steel plate has come out, take a walk, and witness this moment of history!" ”

"Pei Gong blah blah blah." Li Lu hurriedly grabbed him, pointed to the open-top 212 jeep, and said, "Is it faster for us to take the car?" ”

"yes, look, I'm confused when you wait." Pei Lei greeted Zhang Weiwei, "Xiaowei! Hurry up, hurry up! Drive by car! ”

Zhang Weiwei just got out of the car, and at this moment he hurriedly jumped in the car and stepped on the accelerator, Pei Lei dragged Li Lu with a wry smile on his face to get into the car, and the 212 jeep smoked and went to the steel mill. The chimney over there was smoking, billowing up into the sky.

There are no environmental considerations here, and smoking chimneys are an important factor in judging the level of industry in a place.

Pei Lei pointed to the innermost area of the factory and said, "Open inside!" Go to the shooting range! ”

"What are you doing at the range?" Li Lu asked in surprise.

Pei Lei smiled mysteriously, "You'll know later." ”

There were already a lot of people gathered at the shooting range, most of them were wearing blue overalls, they were the employees of the factory, eighty percent of them were from the steel factory, and many of them were wearing green military uniforms without red collar badges, which were people from the security department.

A tank was parked in a firing position, its muzzle raised, and the men of the security section were guarding it with guns, and there were many workers busy in the opposite target area.

"Cannon?" Li Lu was a little surprised, and saw the tank clearly, "Isn't that the T-62M of the tank regiment?" It's fixed? ”

Pei Lei laughed and said, "That's for sure, it's a big deal." Let's go, it's about to begin. ”

Dragging Li Lu, Pei Lei strode over and asked loudly, "Are you ready?" ”

"Pei Gong, everything is ready, waiting for your order." The on-site organizer answered.

Sun Jiangtao walked over with his back hand and looked at Li Lu, and Li Lu began to wonder if his face was stained with engine oil and not washed clean.

Li Lu couldn't stand it and asked with a smile, "Master Sun, don't stare at me like this, what's wrong?" ”

Pointing to the target area in the distance, Sun Jiangtao stared at Li Lu and asked, "Lao Pei said that the formula for the steel plate was provided by you?" ”

Li Lu's heart skipped a beat, he looked at Pei Lei, and his reaction was very fast, "Master Sun, did you misunderstand, didn't Pei Gong say that?" ”

Pei Lei, who came back to his senses, hurriedly remedied it and said, "Master Sun, you misunderstood, Xiao Li is a soldier who knows what technology, doesn't he know Russian, he seized a book, and that book helped me a lot." ”

"What's going on?" Sun Jiangtao still looked at Li Lu suspiciously, and nodded slightly, "Also, you kid doesn't know anything except shooting and killing." ”

Li Lu was embarrassed, if someone else spoke like this, he would have kicked a few ribs with a whip leg, but there was no way, this Master Sun in front of him was the secretary of the factory director, and he had to say hello politely when he saw it.

"Ready to go!" Pei Lei raised the megaphone and shouted, "All the personnel in the target area are evacuated!" ”

The workers who had set up the targets in the target area hurriedly evacuated to the safety zone.

Li Lu still hasn't figured out the difference between this cannon and watched with curiosity.

"Report! All personnel have been evacuated to safety! Someone immediately reported to Pei Lei.

Pei Lei immediately ordered: "The crew is in place!" ”

The four young workers jumped onto the T-62M and moved into their respective positions, and the movements were more standard than those of many tank crews. As a major military factory with decades of experience in tank production, the workers of Guangming Factory are definitely more familiar with tanks than tank veterans, let alone artillery. Before each tank is delivered to the troops, it has to go through a shooting test under various conditions, and isn't it all done by the workers of the Guangming Factory itself.

The worker carrying the radio came to Pei Lei's side, and Pei Lei took the microphone and headset.

The muzzle of the T-62M was lowered and aimed at the target, the turret turned left and right to adjust the aiming point, and soon the crew reported through the radio: "Report! The crew is ready! ”

Pei Lei was excited to launch the rocket, and gave the order to shoot: "Shoot!" ”

After a few seconds, the T-62M shuddered, paused backwards, and a ball of fire erupted from the muzzle of the gun aimed at the target, almost simultaneously with the sound of a dull cannon ejection, and then black smoke from the muzzle.

The clear sound of the cannonball piercing the air, and within two seconds of each other, it hit the target accurately, and the fire on the other side of the target area was followed by smoke, and soon the smoke and dust covered the place where the target was.

Pei Lei issued a new order: "The crew evacuates!" Guards isolate tanks! ”

Then he threw down his megaphone and strode towards the target, with the others following closely behind. Li Lu motioned to Zhang Weiwei to direct the personnel to isolate the tank. There must be warheads and propellants inside, and the tank must be kept out of anyone to avoid potential danger.

Li Lu also hurriedly ran to follow.

There are already workers in the target area sprinkling water to cool down the target, which is a tank target welded with steel plates holding rocks, and the steel plate at the front has attracted Li Lu's attention.

Pei Lei's face became serious, and he quickly stepped forward to carefully check the location of the steel plate that was hit - five hundred meters, and the shell did not penetrate the steel plate.

The other technicians were stunned when they saw this scene.

However, I saw that there was a large recess in the area where I was directly hit, but I did not wear it. There were many cracks around it, but they weren't completely cracked.

Li Lu couldn't help but walk up and ask Pei Lei, "Pei Gong, are you using armor-piercing bullets?" ”

Pei Lei, who was almost about to stick his eyeballs to the hit area to observe, slowly stood up straight, his expression was solemn, he took a deep breath, and slowly turned his head to look at Li Lu, "Armor-piercing bullets, armor-piercing bullets, armor-piercing bullets." ”

He emphasized three times.

Li Lu's expression also became stunned.

At a distance of five hundred meters, the angle of the hit was ninety degrees, that is, the vertical way of hitting, armor-piercing shells were used, and the T-62M used a 115-mm smoothbore gun.

In other words, this steel plate blocked the attack of 115-mm armor-piercing shells fired from 500 meters away!

Li Lu quietly approached Pei Gong, suppressed his voice to the extent that he could only hear it, and said, "Everyone on the scene must immediately receive confidentiality education, and the results of the test must be tightly sealed." ”

Pei Lei immediately came back to his senses and immediately said loudly: "All the personnel gather!" ”

Li Lu whispered to his subordinates, "Go and ask Captain Zhang to bring a squad over and block the target area, no one is allowed to enter without my order, let alone get close to the target!" ”

"Yes!" The lad slipped away.

Pei Lei gathered all the personnel of the technical department, the steel mill, and the workshop, there were more than a dozen people, and said coldly, "From now on, you must not leave my sight." Liu Xiangyang! ”

Liu Xiangyang came out: "Here!" ”

"You take people aside and wait for my orders." Pei Lei said.

"Yes!"

Liu Xiangyang took people away.

Li Lu looked at Liu Xiangyang's back and was a little worried. Not everyone can see the results, but Liu Xiangyang certainly knows what that means.

Everything was arranged, and Pei Lei and Li Lu walked aside to talk.

Pei Lei was very excited, "Xiao Li, do you know what such a technical indicator means?" ”

"Pei Gong, don't worry, what is the thickness of the test steel plate?" Li Lu asked.

Pei Lei said, "It is produced with full reference to the thickness of the 59 front armor." With the same thickness, the index of lightweight armor steel is almost three times that of existing armor! ”

Thrice!

"That is, the 59 tanks built with such armor steel, even the American M60 will not be able to penetrate the frontal armor." ”

"That's right!"

In the field of domestic tank armor research, such progress is almost equivalent to the moon landing!
