Chapter 428: Coincidence

"Who is behind the accident at the Laslaqueira plant or the impact on the launch?"

"With the rise of KBISM, should major powers assume international responsibility?"

"The Arab League claims that it will deal a devastating blow to KB organizations in various countries."

"Afghan announced the issuance of a special permit for the Saudi-Pakistani Mobile Forces to carry out cross-border strikes against armed forces in the southern mountains following the report."

"It's all the moon's fault? In-depth interpretation of the conflict between the lunar exploration program and the beliefs of extremist organizations. ”

In a rural area of China, in front of an ordinary small farmhouse building, a man in a T-shirt and pants was lying on a rattan chair on all fours, leisurely scrolling on his mobile phone.

And beside him, a woman with a good face and a bulging belly sat honestly, afraid of the child who had been crushed in her belly.

The two chatted a word or two from time to time, or got together from time to time to share new things they saw on their phones, and their parents, who were already a little old, walked back and forth in the large living room behind them, not knowing what they were busy with.

This scene can only be considered ordinary in any place, but the sign hanging on the lintel makes this scene a little special.

"House of Glory".

"Home of the Second Class Meritorious".

You must know that in this era of peace, there has always been a saying about first, second, and third class merits.

That is, the third-class merit is taken standing up, the second-class merit is taken lying down, and the family members of the first-class merit are taken.

Even if it is a second-class merit, it must be obtained at great cost and sacrifice, which also adds a layer of endorsement to this seemingly ordinary man on the recliner that is enough to make people fascinated.

However, he is idle in the middle of family leave, in fact, he is no different from most husbands.

He was just scrolling through the shopping app on his phone, picking out what to buy for his wife's baby.

"Look at this, how about this?"

"Dinosaur suit! You can wear it in winter, Internet celebrity model, cute! ”

The wife next to him leaned over to take a look and couldn't help but shake her head.

"What is this, do you know how troublesome it is to put on and take off this kind of clothes? Internet celebrities can wear it when taking pictures, which serious child have you ever seen wearing this kind of clothes? ”

"You say this as if the people who wear this are not serious people. Then look at this one."

"Don't look at it! Men and women don't know, you can buy as many pieces as you want! ”

The woman snatched the man's phone, shut down the screen and stuffed it under her buttocks, and then continued:

"I'll pick the children's things myself, there's no need to buy so much, just enough."

"Moreover, many things are not to be bought now, and you have to wait until the child is born, depending on the specific situation."

"If you really want to buy it, apply to the leader, don't go out again when you return to the team this time, and you can take a paternity leave when the time comes."

"Otherwise, you won't be around when the child is born, what's the matter?"

The woman's tone was a little displeased, and the man smiled, leaned over and put his arm around her shoulders flatteringly, and said:

"It's not up to me to decide whether I can get out or not, now that the country is in need, can I not go?"

"I'm the most experienced veteran overseas, and when I go over there, I still want to lead the team, otherwise, what will happen to those recruits?"

"Foreign countries are not as good as domestic ones, and all aspects are different, and someone still has to press the formation, otherwise the task will not be carried out."

"Just show you!"

The wife scolded angrily, but she did not continue to argue with the man.

In fact, no matter how polite she says, she also knows in her heart that her husband really has his responsibility.

The plaque of the second-class merit was taken by him during his mission in South Sudan.

In the early stage of the evacuation of Port Sudan, the situation was extremely complicated, and it was he who led the team to open a road out of the port under the pressure of the local armed forces, established a base in the port, and created conditions for warships to dock.

Without their advance team, the countrymen evacuated from the capital would have to stay in the rebel camp outside the port for at least three more days, and no one can guarantee what will happen in the three days.

So, he's really useful, and those blue helmets stationed overseas really need him.

——

It's just that there is one thing that women can't figure out.

Isn't the expatriate cycle of the Blue Helmets only one period?

Why did you choose him again this time?

Probably as he said, someone needs to press the formation

She sighed secretly, and her tone became gentle.

"When you get there, you have to pay attention to your safety, this time I went to the Middle East, I heard that the environment is completely different from Africa."

"If you look at the news, the bad guys over there blew up our pipelines, and I've never heard you say anything like that when you were in Africa."

"And those people look different from what you've dealt with before, the rebels in Sudan are at least normal modern people, and the Middle East is doing this kind of thing because we want to go to the moon? I can't even imagine it. ”

"Be careful, be sure to wear body armor!"

"Got it, got it."

The man smiled and nodded, then comforted:

"It's not as serious as you think, and the media just like to exaggerate it now."

"Actually, what happened in Qatar was just an accident at all – it's a serious tourist country, and it's very safe."

"This time, we went over, and it was just a normal garrison arrangement."

"Maybe it's easier than in Africa? Mix for 6 months, and come back to catch up with the birth of the child. ”

His tone was relaxed, and there was a happy expression of "I picked up a big bargain" on his face, and the woman didn't see anything unusual, and the topic just slid away.

However, the man knew very well in his heart that this time the assignment would never be as simple as his previous mission to Africa for peacekeeping.

Because, he already knows that the real place he wants to go is not Qatar, but Pakistan.

Or to be precise, the northwestern border of Pakistan.

And the purpose of their visit is not only to carry out ordinary tasks such as transporting supplies, distributing supplies, rescue and explosive disposal, engineering construction, and so on.

Rather, for the first time in history, it will be necessary to assist the local military in the "disposal" of KB organizations active in mountainous and rural areas.

What is the method of disposal? Do you need to get directly involved in the conflict? Is it possible that it will turn into some kind of "war"?

Men don't know this.

However, he believes that since the official decision has been made, there must be a reason for it.

And himself, as a soldier, a warrior, as long as he carries out the order, it is enough.

Thinking of this, he silently took a breath.

When he looked at his wife on the side, his eyes became extremely gentle.

In his opinion, this is also a special kind of "guardianship".

Yes, in this era, there are actually very few direct threats to China.

But if you want to live a better life, you always have to do more

Chang'an, in the office.

Chen Nian has just completed the review of the implementation rules of the LTV engine, which involves the specific parameters of the temperature control module in the solid-liquid conversion process.

According to the submitted plan, the sensitivity of the temperature control module has fully reached the design standard, but to Chen Nian's surprise, there have been several minor mistakes in the control algorithm that should be his best position.

First of all, the designed cooling rate is too large and the cooling curve is too steep, which poses the risk of overreaction and excessive efficiency.

Secondly, the heating process is designed to be too conservative, according to the results of the calculation and simulation, although the conversion threshold of metallic hydrogen fuel can be barely reached, but when put into the system as a whole, it may cause insufficient fuel supply and affect the working thrust.

Because of this plan, Chen Nian can be said to have unceremoniously scolded Li Bingzhong and Luo Wen, after all, this is the field for which they are fully responsible.

And after Li Bingzhong honestly listened to Chen Nian's lesson, he finally couldn't help but feel aggrieved, and expressed his concerns on the spot.

Different from Chen Nian's pursuit of the balance between efficiency and safety, his starting point is "safety is greater than efficiency".

After all, in his opinion, the Long March-9 itself has sufficient design margin, and according to the performance parameters of the LTV engine, its capacity is not only sufficient, but even "exceeded".

In this case, instead of pursuing the "highest level" tuning, it is better to be conservative and prioritize engine stability.

Does that make sense?

Logically, especially for a new technology, it makes sense.

But Chen Nian is different, he knows better than anyone how the LTV engine should be designed, and he also knows under what parameters it can definitely achieve a level that is both safe and reliable, and has ultra-high efficiency.

Therefore, in Li Bingzhong's view, Chen Nian's overall appeal is too radical

In short, it's purely a matter of poor information, and it's not so easy for each other to convince each other.

But fortunately, Chen Nian still has Xinghuo as an endorsement, and in the face of absolute technical authority, Li Bingzhong finally accepted Chen Nian's opinion and agreed to readjust the algorithm of the temperature control module.

Looking at the back of him leaving, Chen Nian couldn't help but feel a little funny.

He never imagined that he would one day become a similar existence to the "learning valve".

——

But it seems like I've always been?

Even at the very beginning, there were already such problems in the manufacturing process of the F119 engine.

In short, the results will tell.

He closed the report in his hand and rubbed his temples with his hands as he kept the latest developments in his head.

At this moment, the door of the office was suddenly pushed open, and then Chen Guo walked in.

"Resting?"

Chen Guo asked.

Chen Nian opened his eyes and replied:

"No, I just sent Li Bingzhong away."

"Really, these applications are a bit tough, I told him for a long time that he didn't accept it, and finally brought Xinghuo out to press him."

Hearing his words, Chen Guo laughed and said:

"That's because you're thinking too simply, and from a technical point of view, of course you have no problem with your thinking."

"But people have been working on administrative work, and they will subconsciously think about the so-called 'zz risk' problem."

"What if it fails? What if something goes wrong? Who is responsible? ”

"You have to understand them. After all, they all came from the poorest era, and the acceptance of 'trial and error' is unlikely to be comparable to that of the new generation. ”

"Let's take the simplest example, Guo Qi also told me that day, now the young people in the laboratory are not soft at all when they use materials, and the horse boiling furnace can't wait to burn all day long, whether he is useful or not, burn a furnace first."

"It's like when they used a little more electricity in the laboratory, and they had to feel distressed for a while"

"Then the train of thought must not change, forget it, don't talk about this."

Chen Nian waved his hand helplessly and continued:

"The preparations for Chang'e-3 have basically been completed, and the launch is a matter of one or two weeks."

"What the hell is going on above? Is it really necessary to delay the launch because of the matter of Lasrackeira? ”

"No, it won't."

Hearing Chen Nian's words, Chen Guo immediately replied:

"What happened to Laslaqueira was unexpected, but it was basically within the design margin of the project."

"We have three alternative supply chains, even if the Las Laqueira plant and the Hefei plant can't catch up, the original stock of fuel is enough to support the launch."

"If you take 10,000 steps back, at most you will return to the liquid hydrogen plan, and anyway, this time it is just a way out, and there is no plan to transport equipment on a large scale."

Chen Nian nodded slightly, hesitated for a moment, and finally asked:

"So, this incident really has nothing to do with us?"

His expression was curious and a little worried, because he was really afraid to hear an answer like "it was indeed us who did it" from Chen Guo's mouth.

It's not because he has a virgin or any kind of cleanliness fetish, but because in his opinion, if it was really his own people who designed this event, it would be too rough to do.

However, Chen Guo's answer was firm.

"I can assure you that this has absolutely nothing to do with us."

"In fact, we did design a set of plans for the Middle East, which is what Li wanted to tell you before, to get the Arab League moving."

"But before we could get started, what happened to Lasracquela."

"This can only be said to be a coincidence, no matter who the other party is, they did hand us the knife."

"Now, even if we don't take it, it's unlikely that we'll be able to."

"It's dangerous."

Chen Nian breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't completely put his mind at ease.

"That's right, so the upper echelons also attach importance to it."

"I am afraid that there are only a few organizations in this world that can accurately find this pain point and have such execution."

"We are stepping up the investigation, no matter what kind of intentions the other party has, we must find out them."

"Within a week, after the launch of Chang'e-3, there should be results."

"That's good."

Chen Nian nodded slightly, and then suddenly laughed again.

"Maybe Lao Maozi did it? Their PMK has always been active in the Middle East."

"It's possible, but there's no motive."

Chen Guo shook his head.

"You can't say that they are so kind and want to speed up our strategy in the Middle East, right?"

"Maybe it's to accelerate our global strategy?"

Chen Nian subconsciously answered.

And after saying this, the two of them suddenly froze in place at the same time.

Then, the two glanced at each other, and each read each other's thoughts.

If it's really Lao Maozi, then this matter. It's big.
