Executive summary: The open space in the middle of the factory, which was originally one, is now slowly cracking open from the gap in the middle to both sides. The gap widened with a rumbling sound, until it was large enough to fit into the aerodynamic ship before it suddenly stopped. Then, the crane that hung the aerodynamic boat was also activated, and the powered boat was slowly lowered into the open opening. Everyone's eyes were fixed on everything in front of them, until the aerodynamic ship was completely submerged in the dark opening, and then they began to talk about each other................

Chapter 81: Preliminary Preparations (2)

After everyone arrived, John said to Xu Jiandong: "Mr. Xu, our ship has been built so far, and now I am going to put it where it should go, you tell everyone to stand in the back, see the yellow cordon, please all retreat to the back of the line, don't stand inside, it's dangerous, because I'm going to activate the mechanism............." ”

Hearing this, Xu Jiandong nodded and commanded loudly to the people behind him.

Xu Jiandong and the others, who were standing outside the yellow cordon, all stared at the open space in the middle of the factory and the aerodynamic ship still hanging.

No one knows what kind of fame these two American scientists are doing.

Among these people, of course, Xu Jiandong was the most serious, because he was thinking about how Paul and John could put this behemoth into the water.

John and Paul walked into the institute together, leaving only Nick and the three assistants.

After a while, the four corners of the cave flashed green swirling lights, and at the same time, a buzzing alarm bell sounded.

The open space in the middle of the factory, which was originally one, is now slowly cracking open from the gap in the middle to both sides.

The gap widened with a rumbling sound, until it was large enough to fit into the aerodynamic ship before it suddenly stopped.

Then, the crane that hung the aerodynamic boat was also activated, and the powered boat was slowly lowered into the open opening.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on everything in front of them, until the aerodynamic ship was completely submerged in the dark opening, and then the conversation began to start one after another.

When Xu Jiandong saw this, he secretly admired the person who designed this kind of device, and he was able to cleverly set up a mechanism that could be directly launched into the water here, and he thought that this might also be designed by Paul, an expert in mechanical power, no wonder he was confident, so it was.

Xu Jiandong and the big man Lao Hu and the others glanced down.

The big man said, "Fuck! These two American grandmothers, put the boat so deep underneath, how can we go down, is it possible that we have to jump down one by one like bungee jumping to get on the boat.........? ”

Looking at the dark depths below, you can clearly feel a very cold sea breeze coming, presumably leading to the sea outside.

Just as everyone was wondering how to board the aerodynamic ship, John and Paul walked out of the institute.

Paul, an expert in mechanical power, said to Xu Jiandong and others: "Mr. Xu, the person who brought you should hurry back and pack the items that need to be brought, we are going to pedal the boat, you tell them that everyone can not carry too many things, only the necessary items are allowed, and the rest that are not necessary to be brought will be thrown away, and the weight should not exceed 30 kilograms............!" ”

When Xu Jiandong conveyed this, everyone first cheered, and then they all split up and prepared to go.

Xu Jiandong promised Paul and John, but he was thinking in his heart, I don't want to care about how many others bring, but I must bring those things, besides, the buoyancy of this ship weighs a few tons, which is just a drop in the bucket for it.

Xu Jiandong, the big man Lao Hu and the thin man Xinyu Xiaoting and other five people took the elevator back to the castle, found their backpack, and packed up the items inside, but they didn't bring the big tent, because Xu Dong knew that he was going home now, and he couldn't use this kind of item, although he spent more than 1,000 yuan to buy it.

John and Paul, along with the four assistants, also brought their luggage and were standing at the door of the research institute waiting for Xu Jiandong and the big man Lao Hu and the five of them.

Xu Jiandong asked, "Mr. Paul, how do we get on the boat............?" ”

John smiled and said to him, "Mr. Xu, please come with me............!" With that, he turned around and went into the research room.

It turns out that on the other side of the research room, there is an automatic door, and this door is different from the other doors, and after you walk in, it is an elevator room.

There were so many people in the elevator at once, naturally it was impossible to close the door and run, so Mr. John shouted loudly to everyone: "There are too many people, divided into two groups, one trip is definitely not possible, it is very dangerous!" ”

At that moment, those who could understand English voluntarily exited the elevator hall.

The elevator started and slowly drove down.

The inside of this elevator is very clean, the iron plates around it are sprayed with pale green paint, and there is a fluorescent lamp on the top of the elevator room, which looks very bright, but not dazzling.

The elevator seemed to be very crowded, although nearly half of the people went down, but the luggage and items carried were almost filled with space, making people feel a little breathless, but fortunately this situation did not last long.

"Clank!" As soon as the bell rang, the elevator finally stopped, and when the door opened, Paul, a mechanical design expert, walked down first.

Everyone's eyes lit up, and he turned on the light.

This is a large space, looking up, you can see the lights in the factory dozens of meters high, because those lights are not directly shining in, so they do not seem to be very bright, not much stronger than the skylight.

The white catamaran aerokinetic boat was quietly lying more than ten meters away from the elevator entrance.

You can clearly feel the coldness of the sea and the subtle sea breeze from time to time, and it is clearly connected to the sea outside.

Everyone consciously lined up in a long line and boarded this special catamaran.

Since the overall design was developed in the direction of lightness and time-saving, only a few aluminum panels were adhered to the two sides of the cabin, and the middle was separated by a plywood plank, which was divided into a lounge, a galley, a toilet, a storage room, and an ammunition room.

There are only six lounges in the entire aerodynamic boat, and in each lounge, there are double iron beds on each side of the siding that can accommodate four people at the same time.

There is no special decoration and arrangement inside, one is not so much time, and the other is not necessary, if these are complete, then its weight will increase a lot.

Although the facilities in the cabin are simple, there are doors, windows and lights, because these are daily necessities that must be installed, and it is not known how long it will take to sail to reach the destination at sea, and it will be very disadvantageous to ignore these things.

The twenty or so people went into their respective lounges and settled in.

Paul called his assistant Nick and another assistant and asked the two of them to fill up the fuel tanks of the power boat and prepare to set sail.

Xu Jiandong, the thin man, the big man Lao Hu and others stepped on the aerodynamic boat and walked into a lounge near the door, Xinyu and Xiaoting and the rest of the women lived in one of the same rooms, and Jones and several others lived in the other lounges.

As soon as he put the backpack on his body on the bed, the big man sat down on the iron shelf bed without any luggage.

After the thin man made the bed, he lay down on it and said, "Hey! Grandma's, this time it's finally hopeful to go home, I don't know how my parents are doing now............? ”

The big man Lao Hu took out the bullets in his backpack and counted them, and said to Xu Jiandong: "Old Xu, we have less than a hundred rounds of ammunition left.................. After speaking, he put the SVD sniper rifle next to the bed, and then asked Xu Jiandong: "Old Xu, do you think these bullets can be used?" Why don't I get some of it from the ammunition depot again, I'm afraid there won't be enough of them? ”

Xu Jiandong turned his head to look at the bullets on the big man's bed, and said to him: "I think these bullets should be almost enough, in addition, when we enter Chinese waters, your gun and all the weapons and ammunition on the ship must be thrown into the sea in advance, otherwise it will be found by others, and the light one will be confiscated and confiscated, and the heavy one will have to be caught and locked up by ............the customs at that time." ”

The big man looked at the American-made SVD sniper rifle next to the bed, sighed and said, "Hey! It's a shame that I can't bring it back, and my grandfather's old gun didn't come back, so it's a ..................shame to come out this time. ”

The thin man turned off the bolt safety of the tactical MP5 submachine gun, hung it on the hook of the bulkhead, turned to him and said, "Okay old Hu, don't be sad, where are you going to fight pirates and monsters in the city............ ”

When the big man heard what he said, he immediately retorted: "Who said that it is not needed, I can secretly take it to my uncle's forest farm, there is a place for it............." ”

The thin man was amused and said, "Come on, don't forget, if this gun doesn't have bullets, isn't it the same as the semi-automatic rifle left by your grandfather, it has become a burning stick and a collector's item, if you like these guns, you can consider buying a replica gun to hang in your cabin, and when your hands are itchy, pick it up and play with a few BB bullets............ ”

When the big man heard what he said, he waved his hand angrily and said: "it, are you still a teenager when you kid, I have never been interested ............in guns that can't shoot real bullets." ”

Xu Jiandong opened his mouth and said to him at this time: "Old Hu, listen to me, Qiangzi is right, no matter how good this gun is, you can't bring it back, it's better to cause less trouble, aren't we going through less things?" Don't make a difference, you know............? ”

Hearing this, the big man Lao Hu nodded helplessly, he felt that Xu Jiandong was reasonable, and what the thin man said was reasonable, now he is only here, if he insists on continuing to insist, once something really happens, it will be a little unspeakable, for this gun, he is just a little reluctant.

At this time, Jones suddenly walked in and said to Xu Jiandong: "Mr. Xu, Mr. John asked us to take a few people to the ammunition depot and factory in the castle to bring some ammunition, because the defensive weapons on the ship are still empty, and not a single bullet or rocket is loaded with ................" ”

Hearing Jones's words, Xu Jiandong beckoned, called the big man Lao Hu and the thin man to get off the boat with Jones and the others, and went straight to the arsenal.

John and two assistants were attaching rockets to a flip-up ship-to-ship rocket launcher at the front of the aerodynamic ship.

Paul stood on the shore with Nick and another assistant busy filling the ship's tank.

The big man Lao Hu glanced at the black rubber tube used for refueling, and asked Xu Jiandong: "Lao Xu, hasn't that old beauty already refueled, why is it still refueling...............?" ”

Xu Jiandong glanced at him and said: "Have you forgotten, there are three fuel tanks on this ship, one main fuel tank has the largest capacity, and two auxiliary fuel tanks......... You know? ”

The big man nodded when he heard this and said, "So that's the case......... You're right, you really should have a little more oil. ”

The ammunition was successively moved to the deck of the aerodynamic ship by Xu Jiandong and others.

Designed by weapons expert John, this flip-up device is a fast-reacting mechanical control system.

The flipped anti-aircraft machine gun was of the six-barrel rapid-fire version, with a caliber of 7.62 mm and two ammunition boxes with a reserve of 1,000 rounds on either side of the machine gun.

After all the rounds in the magazine are fired, it can be flipped over, and the mechanical ammunition feeding system inside will first unload the empty magazine and load it with a new one, and the reloading time will not take more than three minutes.

The armament on the aerodynamic ship was already equipped.

John said to Xu Jiandong: "Mr. Xu, we are about to sail, do you have anything to do?" Hurry up............! ”

Xu Jiandong thought about it when he heard the words and said to him: "Mr. John, there is another important thing that I almost forgot, this matter must be done, I will go with a few people immediately, you wait for ............." ”

John hurriedly asked Xu Jiandong, "Mr. Xu, what is the important .........?" ”

Xu Jiandong smiled and said to him: "Mr. John, I think we have to blow up this castle, don't forget, there are three nuclear warheads down here, if they fall into the hands of bad actors, I'm afraid it will create panic and disaster again, so ................" ”
