Chapter 7: Universal 3D Printing

The yacht walked out until he couldn't see the lights of the Huyang and Shiyang behind him, Hu Zhen took out a thin small box communicator, pressed it a few times, the communicator immediately flashed a few green light signals, Hu Zhen said to the communicator: "Come out!" ”

A very mechanical voice immediately sounded in the box communicator: "Yes, master! ”

With this promise, a swarthy behemoth appeared on the sea in front of the boat. It turned out that this was the nuclear submarine that took Hu Zhen through time and space.

Hu Zhen entered the inside of the nuclear submarine and asked, "Have you made all the weapons and communication equipment I want?" ”

The very mechanical voice inside the submarine sounded: "No problem, as long as it is any industrial product that the owner has set the parameters to manufacture, my 3D printing manufacturing system, whether it is paper money or mechanical weapons, can be manufactured." Now the things that the owner wants are only things that are twenty or thirty years ahead of this era, and it is not difficult to manufacture, and now this batch of metal machinery products has been manufactured and packaged! ”

Hu Zhen checked the packing list and found that the 3D printing manufacturing system on the nuclear submarine had produced 3,000 imitation Mauser K98 rifles of 7.92 mm caliber, 300 imitation Czech light machine guns, 30 Makqin heavy machine guns, 3,000 9 mm caliber pistols, 200 12.7 mm sniper rifles, 30 60 mm caliber mortars, 30 75 mm caliber recoilless guns, 50 sets of radio stations, 50 sets of wired telephones, 150 telescopes, and 300 flashlights. 100 sets of Kevlar body armor and a batch of antibiotics.

Hu Zhen found that there were a few things missing from the package: "What about the 75mm mortar model, AK47 submachine gun model, and 75mm hydraulic garrison mountain gun model I want?" ”

"Didn't the master say that these weapons are not in a hurry to use, but just print out the sample first, which has been printed, but it is not packaged in it!"

Hu Zhen found those spare samples in the 3D printing manufacturing workshop, so he nodded: "Okay, immediately use the mechanical arm to move these weapons to the yacht I piloted!" ”

Hu Zhen got into the cockpit of the nuclear submarine, activated the navigation system, and set the course of the nuclear submarine in the next step.

"Master, are we going back to Asia?"

"Yes, I crossed the Indian Ocean from the Suez Canal through the Mediterranean Sea with the Tiger Ocean and the Shiyang, but the nuclear submarine cannot be exposed to others in the Suez Canal, and must go south from the Atlantic Ocean and detour through the Cape of Good Hope to enter the Indian Ocean and meet me in the Indian Ocean."

"The maximum speed of those two antique steam engine cargo ships is only twelve or thirteen knots, and with the average speed of forty knots for nuclear submarines, they will definitely be able to rush to your front and wait for you!"

"Okay, we'll meet in the Indian Ocean. Along the way, the 3D fabrication system will produce 5,000 rifles, 5,000 pistols, 300 light machine guns, 100 heavy machine guns, 50 mortars, and 50 recoilless guns before reaching Borneo! ”

"The owner can rest assured that the 3D manufacturing system on the nuclear submarine is almost omnipotent, as long as the materials are sufficient and the space location permits, it can manufacture anything that has been manufactured by human society, even if there is nothing that human society has, the supercomputer system can also be designed, and then manufactured through the 3D manufacturing system, and now the materials on the boat are quite sufficient, and there is no problem in manufacturing this number of weapons!"

The next day, at dawn. The people on board the Tiger Ocean and the Lion Ocean found that a large number of weapons had been found on board, and the performance of these weapons was more advanced than that of any European power, and the radio station was even more advanced equipment than anyone had ever heard of.

People were in a state of flux.

Hu Zhen ordered that each of the 209 people who graduated from the German School should be equipped with a rifle and a pistol, and from now on, they should familiarize themselves with the performance of the weapon and practice mastering their use. In addition, appropriate personnel are selected to learn the skills of maintenance and the use of wired telephones and radios.

But there were also people who were unhappy, so Zheng Dingbang found Hu Zhen sullenly and asked: "Why don't you give our crew weapons to use?" ”

"Why do you crew members need to be armed on a merchant ship?"

"Beware of pirates! After crossing the Suez Canal, it is possible to run into pirates, although these pirates are not very well armed, but they have too many wooden sailing ships, if they are targeted, it is still not a small trouble, and our crew sailors must also be equipped with weapons to defend themselves! ”

Hu Zhen nodded when he heard this, but said to Zheng Dingbang: "So that's the case, okay, I will equip the other crew members with weapons for self-defense, but I can't equip you with weapons!" ”

Zheng Dingbang was stunned: "Ah! Why? ”

"The news that has just been sent from London is that under the operation of Fat Frodo using a huge amount of money in pounds, the British authorities and the navy have agreed to accept the quota of three hundred people we send to study navy at the British naval school! You are responsible for leading the team to study the navy! ”

As a person of the future, traveling to an era in which controlling the sea controls the world, building a navy is of course Hu Zhen's primary consideration.

However, the navy has always been called a "century-old navy", which means that it can only build a strong navy after years of accumulation and precipitation. Hu Zhen wanted to build a navy quickly, relying on the foresight brought by later generations, and after making a lot of money through various means in the major European powers, Hu Zhen did not hesitate to use a series of money operations, using tens of millions of pounds of funds, so that the naval authorities of Chile, Argentina, Brazil, and other countries in South America agreed to train 3,000 Chinese naval personnel.

These South American countries agreed to help purchase two 8,000-ton battleships, 12 3,000-5,000-ton cruisers, 16 500-ton destroyers, and 16 torpedo boats in Britain, Germany, and France after receiving 15 percent of Hu Zhen's "transfer fee," with a total tonnage of 75,000 tons.

However, Hu Zhen, as an individual, did not have the support of the national level, and it was extremely difficult to send personnel to learn the navy from the most advanced European naval powers.

Hu Zhen arranged for many parties to operate for a long time, and at the cost of huge sums of money, the British naval authorities only yesterday agreed to accept 300 people into their naval schools and navy to study navy. Zheng Dingbang is one of the best captains in the Pacific Shipping Company, and of course it is on the list of Hu Zhen sent to study in the British Navy.

"Ah, I see!" Cruising the ocean with the powerful Chinese fleet has always been Zheng Dingbang's ideal, and now that he heard that Hu Zhen was going to send him to study the navy, he immediately turned from astonishment to overjoyed, and nodded frequently like a chicken pecking rice: "Okay, I will go immediately!" ”

"Go, after you elect the new captain of the Tiger Ocean, immediately take someone to the British Naval School to report!"

At this time, according to Hu Zhen's instructions, several groups of Chinese technicians and workers from other European countries also arrived, and now there are more than 600 people on the two ships, officially embarking on the journey back to Far East Asia.

Under the command of Hu Zhen, the two merchant ships set off from British waters to the south, turned around in the Strait of Gibraltar and headed east, crossed the Mediterranean Sea, passed through the Suez Canal, and entered the Red Sea.

Along the way, Hu Zhen got up at 6 o'clock every morning, carried out strict physical training, queue training, and weapon training with the cadets and crews, ate and drank salar together, and personally taught them cultural classes, analyzed the world situation, and encouraged everyone to strive for the rise of China.

Everyone on the boat admired the ambition and mind of this life-saving benefactor even more, and strengthened their determination to follow Hu Zhen to create a career.

After the ship entered the Red Sea, due to Zheng Dingbang's warning, Hu Zhen became cautious, divided more than 200 military cadets into two ships, equipped everyone with weapons, and ordered to strengthen the vigilance day and night.

In the morning of that day, the fleet spotted pirates.

At this moment, the fog was thick, the visibility on the sea surface was very poor, and it was difficult to see the situation from a distance of several tens of meters, and in order to prevent a collision, the speed of the ship was reduced to a minimum. The sailors who were looking out from the side of the ship suddenly noticed a large area of wooden sailing ships surrounded by black pressure on the sea.

Only a whooshing sound was heard, and countless grappling hooks flew over and landed on the side of the ship, and faintly some figures climbed along the ropes behind the grappling hooks.
