When he returned to Guangming Factory, it was already late at night, Li Lu didn't expect that it was so late, after Pei Lei learned that he was back, he ran to his dormitory to find him.

"You're back." Pei Lei's face was very haggard, and his expression was very complicated and strange.

Li Lu hadn't had time to find Yang Pengwu to understand the situation, and planned to do this thing when he went to work at dawn. As a result, Yang Pengwu didn't come, but Pei Lei arrived.

"Pei Gong, what's wrong? Sit down first and speak slowly. Li Lu poured him water and sat down on the sofa.

Pei Lei waved his hand and said, "There are a few things, if you don't come back, you, the head of the security section, will be something else." ”

"What's going on?" Li Lu asked, "Pei Gong, don't worry, speak slowly." ”

"I'm not in a hurry, but you, you should be in a hurry." Pei Lei said with a sneer.

Li Lu said, "When the sky falls, there are factory leaders on top, Pei Gong, tell you something." ”

Pei Lei said, "The first thing, the third warehouse was stolen, and among the things that were lost, there was an enemy identifier in the fire-control-system of the Asian Tiger tank. This matter is under the control of your defense section, and if you can't find it back before the Americans know about it, you, the section chief, will be dragged out as a scapegoat. ”

Li Lu's eyes widened, "Friend or foe identifier? ”

"Hmm." Pei Lei said.

No wonder Pei Lei can't wait for tomorrow at all, no wonder his face is so ugly.

"You don't need me to remind you of the importance of friend or foe identifiers, do you?" Pei Lei said.

Li Lu nodded slowly, "No, I understand." ”

The most core and important component of the fire-control system is the friend or foe identifier. There is no such thing in the equipment of the Wehrmacht, and the Asian Tiger tank is equipped with a friend-or-foe identifier, which should be said to be the first relatively advanced friend-or-foe identifier that the Wehrmacht has come into contact with. Although the U.S. side is providing a simplified product, in the eyes of the Huaxia military workers, it still has great research value.

The biggest highlight of the Asian Tiger tank is that it is equipped with a second-generation fire-control system, which can be networked with the GPS satellite system to achieve accurate positioning, communication and other functions. And friend or foe identifiers are undoubtedly the top priority. In short, the first thing you need to do to destroy an enemy is to search and then identify yourself. Friend or foe identifiers play a fundamental and critical role in the system.

It was obviously impossible for Li Lu not to know how important this thing was.

"Zhao Xu has been quarantined and examined, and I don't think you are very good." Pei Lei said.

Li Lu was taken aback and said, "Quarantine review? The factory suspects Zhao Xu? ”

"Before we found out, the factory suspected anyone. You are not at home, Zhao Xu is the person in charge of the security department, so the responsibility for the loss of important parts is on him. A secret investigation team headed by the factory director has been set up to investigate the case. I'm telling you, if you're at home, you're the one who's locked up and censored. Pei Lei didn't scare Li Lu at all.

Li Lu lit a cigarette and took a heavy puff, and said, "Pei Gong, what is the specific situation, you can explain it in detail from beginning to end." The third warehouse is a key protection object, which is full of important parts and raw materials for the Asian Tiger tank project. ”

"So you have to know the seriousness of this matter." Pei Lei said, "Early yesterday morning, Zhao Xu went to the factory to report that the third warehouse was stolen. I led someone to check it right away, and there was a friend or foe identifier in the missing thing, and I knew it was serious. Then the news was blocked, and so far, only a few factory leaders and members of the secret investigation team knew about the theft. ”

"The public security department doesn't know either?" Li Lu frowned and asked.

Pei Lei was angry and said, "When will it be the turn of the local government to take care of the affairs of the army?" ”

At this time, there was no Ministry of State Security, and counter-espionage and political defense were in charge of several departments, namely the Central Investigation Department, the Public Security and Political Security Bureau, the relevant units of the United Front Work Department, and the relevant departments of the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense. Guangming Factory is a military factory, and the security work is responsible for the relevant departments of the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense, specifically by the General Administration of Security (fabricated) directly under the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense. From the point of view of the subordinate relationship of the establishment, the security section of the Guangming Factory can be regarded as a branch of the dispatched agency of the General Security Bureau. This is somewhat similar to that of local public security departments, which are vertically organized, but at the same time accept the leadership and management of local governments.

Li Lu suddenly remembered and said, "Isn't our factory being handed over, the security department is going to be changed to the public security department, and it is normal for the local government to take care of this matter." ”

"Not to mention the local political security department, the head factory and the Americans don't know about this yet. Director Wang has made up his mind, relying on the strength of the factory, within a time limit of five days to find the friend or foe identifier, and everyone is happy to find it, and if it can't be found, it will be reported to the main factory, and it will not be our family's business at that time. Pei Lei said in a deep voice, "The preliminary conclusion of the secret investigation team is that this is a theft case of internal and external collusion, and after analyzing the lost items, the possibility of the enemy's special actions can basically be ruled out." ”

Li Lu obviously knew the seriousness of the matter. It is such a critical period when the Guangming Factory is handed over to the local government, and the occurrence of such a thing will undoubtedly seriously affect the process. Wang Jiaqing is undoubtedly the most headache. He was sent by the province to take over the Guangming Factory, and what he wanted was to ensure that the Guangming Factory was smoothly transferred from the military industrial system to the provincial industrial system. When something like this happens at the time of the transfer, the entire transfer process must be stopped.

It is not difficult to understand why Wang Jiaqing did not report under pressure, thinking of using the power of the factory to find out the matter and find the friend or foe identifier.

"Pei Gong, I have to learn more about the case." Li Lu said in a deep voice, "Zhao Xu is the person who knows the situation best, and it is inappropriate to quarantine and review him at this time, so I ask that the restrictions on him be lifted and join the secret investigation team with me." ”

"You can't tell me about this." Pei Lei said, "Xiao Li, you have to be clear. The friend or foe identifier can't be recovered, and the head factory knows about it, and we people will be punished one by one at most. But if the Americans knew, do you know what the consequences would be? ”

Li Lu nodded slowly, "They will suspend the Asian Tiger tank project, and the subsequent research and development process of improved models will be seriously affected." In fact, if Chrysler Defense were the main partner, if they cut off the supply of key components, the Asian Tiger tank project would be finished. ”

"Seems you know very well, I won't say much about the rest. I remember when we first met, you made a suggestion to me to export to earn foreign exchange, and the factory has been following this path. The key product is the Asian Tiger tank. If this project is affected, it will affect the development of the entire plant in the next ten years. The survival of tens of thousands of people is at stake, and it depends on whether you can solve this case within five days. Pei Lei said in a deep voice.

Li Lu took a deep breath, "Pei Gong, I will definitely do my best." ”

Pei Lei said, "Another thing, the factory already knows about your private use of the special train." It's just that in the face of the theft, no one cares about you for the time being. You should not underestimate this matter, if the leader acquiesces, you will at most be given a verbal warning. If the leader is more serious, you will go to jail! ”

"So, cracking this theft case within the time specified by Director Wang is the best way for you to solve all the problems in front of you at once. Do you understand what I mean? ”

Li Lu nodded slowly and said gratefully, "Pei Gong, I understand." ”
