Chapter 863 "Thunder" rocket artillery

The military production meeting held in Dingbian Municipal Fǔ was about to end, and the heads of various ministries of the Special Administrative Region who attended the meeting thought that the meeting was about to end. ”

Wang Xu was stunned, mō was confused, everyone at the meeting was stunned, what is the chairman asking?

Tang Qiuli smiled incomprehensibly and said, "It's the ten BM13 rocket launchers," Wang Xu suddenly realized, it turned out that the division commander was thinking about this treasure, he smiled and said: "It turns out that I was going to give the division commander a surprise, since the division commander proposed it, let's go to the scene to have a look?" ”

Tang Qiuli immediately jumped up and said, "Disperse, disperse," several cars drove out of the bustling urban area of Dingbian at a gallop, and after passing the orderly suburbs of the village, they went directly north along a flat road, and there were basically no people along the way, and after more than an hour, they drove into a sandy area, which had entered the edge of the Máo Usu Desert in the ancient west of Inner Méng.

The strong wind of the ancient plateau of Méng blows up the grains of sand, hitting people's cheeks, and the eyes are full of yellow sand, stretching into the distance, boundless, revealing the eternal desolation and eternity.

Turning around and sitting on a tall sand dune, a large barracks appeared in front of him, several barbed wires, horizontal in front of him, heavily armed sentinels, strictly checking the documents of several people, Tang Qiuli and Mei Xue had no documents, although the sentry knew Wang Xu, he also knew that this was his boss's top boss.

But he didn't let him go, until Wang Xu called and called a major officer, looking at this posture, it was the commander of the guard unit here, and the sentry let him go, and when Tang Qiuli walked inside, he heard the major reprimanding a few sentries fiercely, "I really don't have long eyes, do you know who it is?" ”

The sentry shook his head blankly, "Sue you, this is the founder of our Dingbian Special Economic Zone, the chairman of the Military and Political Committee of the Special Economic Zone, and our division commander, General Tang Qiuli, let's get into trouble, see how I clean up a few of you boys in a while." The major officer said in a low voice.

The sentry was taken aback, and said in a somewhat dazed voice: "Captain, what I stopped just now was our division commander?" God, so young, only a year or two older than me, miserable, miserable" But in the words, there was a sense of pride in it, as if he had done something great.

Tang Qiuli stopped and beckoned the major to come over, and the major hurriedly ran and saluted: "Report to the division commander, Bai Guangbin, the captain of the base guard, report to you, please give instructions to the commander."

Tang Qiuli returned the salute and said gently: "Major, your subordinates are performing their duties, they are all qualified soldiers, don't let them be punished in any way because of my identity, everyone is equal in front of the regulations, and Tang Qiuli is no exception." ”

The major's face turned red, Wang Xu hurriedly took it, and said, "I was negligent, I didn't say hello in advance, let's go, division commander, go inside, Guangbin, busy with your go," Bai Guangbin wiped the sweat from his forehead, saluted and left.

Wang Xu and several heads of the Ordnance Bureau accompanied Tang Qiuli to walk inside, while introducing: "Division commander, this is the weapons test center of our Ordnance Bureau, and the various types of weapons and ammunition equipped by the troops are all tested and formed here.

Tang Qiuli was very surprised, this Wang Xu was silent, boring for the first few years, he made so many famous halls, I really didn't see it, entered a dòng mouth made of reinforced concrete, along the steps, down to a wide and long dòng, Wang Xu turned on the electric light, and there was a light in the dòng.

Tang Qiuli looked over, good guy, it was full of all kinds of equipment, inside, he saw the treasure he cared about, BM13 rocket launcher, the ten samples, still there, surrounded by dozens of rocket artillery, but it was not quite the same as what the Soviets provided.

What is the difference, Tang Qiuli can't say for sure, it's just a feeling, he stroked the cold body of the rocket artillery, and felt the power contained in this big guy, historically, this kind of rocket artillery, commonly known as "Katyusha", showed its skills on the Soviet-German battlefield, and made the invincible German infantry and armored units suffer a lot.

Often, a few "Katyusha" rocket artillery battalions can cover the entire offensive area of the German army, and hundreds of thousands of outstanding descendants of the Germanic nation are turned into ashes in the overwhelming rocket rain, and at the end of World War II, on the Korean battlefield, the "Katyusha" rocket artillery is even more majestic, and the United ** fearfully called it "Kim Il-sung's loud voice," and the American GIs heard the "chirping" sound of the "Katyusha" rocket tearing through the air, and they trembled with fright, and they could only pray to God.

Wang Xu saw that Tang Qiuli was deep in thought, and reminded: "Division commander, let's go to the shooting range and see if the live ammunition hits anything?" Tang Qiuli couldn't hold back his mood for a long time, if his troops were equipped with such a big guy, in the future war against Japan, it would definitely be a blow to the Japanese army who advocated white-edged charge.

A rocket artillery car, driving to the hair field, Tang Qiuli climbed the high watchtower, with a high-powered telescope, staring at the rocket coverage area, and after a while, more than a dozen rockets swept overhead, and the familiar sound of tearing the air made Tang Qiuli's blood boil.

In the distance, in the target area, there was a sea of fire, but the dense range of the bullet impact point was more than he imagined, Tang Qiuli knew that this prototype was the Soviet BM13 rocket launcher, and the maximum range was only 8.5 kilometers, and the impact point was irregularly distributed, which was an excellent weapon for hitting surface targets, and if it was used to hit point targets, it was not very ideal.

The biggest disadvantage of this guy is that he can't determine the position, and after the rocket flies out, it will be out of control, and the early rocket artillery does not have the aiming system of conventional artillery, and at its maximum range, within two kilometers, it is a dangerous area, and it is not good to smash it on his own head, and he is often responsible for long-distance and in-depth operations, as well as all-round support and reinforcement tasks.

To put it bluntly, this guy just relied on Qi shè, the overwhelming dense firepower, to cover the target area in all directions, relying on a short period of time, a large number of rockets smashed on the enemy's head, flies and tigers hit together, no matter what the target is, just smash it down, at the same time, this guy is also a tiger swallowing shells, and the consumption of bullets is amazing.

No matter what happened, Tang Qiuli personally came to the scene of rocket artillery shè bombardment, felt the amazing power of this big guy, and liked it from the bottom of his heart, Wang Xu saw the suspicion in the division commander's heart, pointed to the rocket shè car and said: "Division commander, our special equipment research institute, according to the prototype of the Soviets, has carried out a wide range of improvements, what you see now is the improved rocket and shè car." ”

Tang Qiuli was very interested, "Oh, go on, what have you experts done in terms of things of the Soviets, no wonder I think it's different?" ”

Wang Xu pointed to an expert in his fifties and said: "Specifically, you have to ask our Chief Engineer Qin, he is a rocket technology expert who came back from studying in the Soviet Union, and these improvements are all from the hands of General Qin." ”

Qin was always a typical intellectual, speaking concisely and to the point, in front of Tang Qiuli, a four-star general, without the slightest sense of crampedness, he said: "That's the case, after studying the samples of the Soviets, we found many shortcomings, mainly in the accuracy of the impact point and the shè cheng, and immediately, the Ordnance Bureau set up a research team, and the contemptible person was the team leader. ”

"After many tests and improvements, now this rocket launcher can be controlled within a certain range, so to speak, the theoretical two-kilometer one's own dangerous area can be controlled within a range of one kilometer, and the improved rocket range has been increased from the original 8.5 kilometers to 15 kilometers."

Tang Qiuli was taken aback, the rocket hit a little bit of jīng accurate control zhì, it is also a difficult problem to solve in later generations, I didn't expect that in the hands of this chief engineer Qin, it was actually solved, what a great achievement, this is a rocket technology expert, and it is my Tang Qiuli's precious talent.

With him, maybe under the condition of providing a qiē convenience, it is very possible to develop a missile, an absolute treasure, he grabbed Qin Zong's hand and said: "General Qin, on behalf of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the independent division, I thank you, thank you for improving such a powerful armament, and it will definitely be famous on the battlefield of resistance against Japan." ”

Mr. Qin's enthusiasm for Tang Qiuli was somewhat surprising, in his opinion, it was just a matter of duty, when the Japanese invaded China, it was already very satisfying to have a quiet land that was not disturbed by artillery fire for him to concentrate on research, this is not the end, and the next words surprised him even more.

Tang Qiuli said to Wang Xu: "Director Wang, in this way, in my name, the award to the rocket artillery improvement research team will be set at 200,000 yuan in the ocean, and President Qin will get 50,000 yuan for himself, and the rest will be rewarded to other members. What do we have to offer, do you think that's okay? ”

Everyone was surprised, I don't know what this Dingbian boss thinks, how can he invest so much money in this, Mr. Qin is even more surprised, what he does is just what he does, besides, the treatment given by Dingbian has exceeded his imagination, a poor Confucian, getting such a high courtesy, has made this intellectual have the idea of desperate retribution.

They knew that Tang Qiuli, who came from later generations, was already planning to use it to make up for the lack of his naval and air force after developing the missile, and to get such a talent, of course, he would not let it go lightly, and no matter how big the capital was, he would have to be enveloped.

Seeing that Mr. Qin was about to resign, Tang Qiuli waved his big hand and said, "That's it, by the way, our rocket launcher doesn't have a name yet, right?" How about I contribute one, just call it Thunder? Everyone applauded, and in the future, the "Thunder" rocket launcher that terrified the Japanese army was freshly baked.
