118: Beat the whole colonel to tears? I'm looking forward to it!
Chapter 118: Make Colonel Man cry? I'm looking forward to it!
"Colonel Man is a tiger in the military, and Chen Guang is a tactical master of the Western Theater Command. The Navy leadership specifically asked me to come and learn. Technical personnel must not forget their combat instincts."
"Why don't I see Old Zhong?"
"Old Zhong is busy with a new project; he doesn't have the leisure time for this."
The sea trials of the guangyu silent were very successful, and the takeoff and landing of the Flying Shark fighters had no issues. The only regret was that the power reactor's output was insufficient.
A heavy oil-burning turbine is ultimately inferior to a nuclear power reactor that can be maintenance-free for long periods, but Old Zhong is currently leading a team to overcome the technical difficulties.
If the progress is fast, it can be completed in three to five years. By then, the Dragon Xia Navy's combat capability will surely take another qualitative leap.
Moving from coastal waters to the deep blue will no longer be a dream!
"Is it a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier?" Lu Shenwei asked.
Gu Ming was noncommittal: "You kid just need to take care of your own plot of land. I heard you've developed another weapon of war for the Army."
"It's just a small project. You'll be able to see it before long." Lu Shenwei did not take credit.
Gu Ming asked in surprise: "Has it been test-equipped by the Army?"
"Not that fast, but Chen Guang and his team have a batch."
If the drone swarm can achieve real results in this Zhuri exercise, the orders will inevitably explode, and we will be one step closer to the goal of the Artificial Sun.
"You kid always have unique ideas. I look forward to the performance of the new equipment," Gu Ming said with a chuckle.
He liked Lu Shenwei from the bottom of his heart. Previously, he was always obsessed with the Navy doing its own R&D.
Ever since he started "relying" on Julong Steel, he finally understood what it meant to be truly satisfied!
At first, he even thought about poaching a few engineers from Julong Steel for the Navy's procurement and R&D department, but after seeing the design proposal for the Julong aircraft carrier arresting gear, he completely abandoned this idea.
The engineers and designers at Julong Steel were definitely a group of idealist geniuses; an overly restrictive environment might stifle their talent.
"You've only been asking me questions. How is our Navy doing lately? Is there anything we can help with?" Lu Shenwei asked.
Gu Ming's expression suddenly darkened upon hearing this: "There actually is something we need you to develop, but the technical difficulty is not small."
"Just say the word, we will go all out."
Seeing Lu Shenwei so confident, Gu Ming sighed: "You heard about the ship collision incident a while ago, right?"
"Ship collision? It seems like Japan did it. I heard Brother Qi mention it a couple of times."
Mazu fishermen were fishing in traditional fishing grounds within the Nine-Dash Line, when they encountered brutal law enforcement by a Japanese enforcement ship.
The Mazu fishermen argued their case, saying they were fishing in Dragon Xia waters, but the Japanese enforcement ship insisted on forcibly boarding the ship for inspection.
The two sides were at a stalemate, and the Japanese enforcement ship suddenly rammed and capsized the Mazu fishing boat.
Even after the boat capsized, they used water cannons to fire at them.
Fortunately, the four crew members who fell into the water were rescued by other passing crew members, but their fishing boat was forcibly detained by Japan.
If the Dragon Xia Coast Guard could cover all fishing areas, the Japanese enforcement ships wouldn't dare to be so rampant.
"We want to develop a patrol Coast Guard ship to let fishermen fish more safely in the fishing grounds."
Gu Ming stated his idea, and Lu Shenwei said half-jokingly: "Why don't you just paint the guangyu silent white? Fisheries Administration 16, I've even thought of the name."
"An 80,000-ton Fisheries Administration ship? You really dare to think, aren't you afraid of Director Zhang poking your spine?" Gu Ming retorted.
Lu Shenwei thought for a moment: "80,000 tons isn't big; both the Fisheries Administration and the Coast Guard can use it."
"If you really gave the guangyu silent to them, the leaders of both sides would probably start fighting."
"Jokes aside, what exactly is your idea?"
"Don't make it too big, seven or eight meters long and two or three meters wide is enough. Simple to operate, with a high-pressure water cannon," Gu Ming thought.
It's mainly for defense. Japan, relying on its godfather, doesn't put its former foster father in its eyes at all.
If the kid is disobedient, they must be spanked!
"What about the range of the high-pressure water cannon?" Lu Shenwei asked.
"What range do you need for a high-pressure water cannon? Thirty or fifty meters is enough; it's just for scaring people," Gu Ming said casually.
Scaring people?
Damn, Japan almost killed our fishermen, how can just scaring them be enough? We must hit them!
That water cannon bluffing toy only belongs at the kids' table. For real, we must use large-caliber autocannons.
But I don't have any real weapons on hand. Wait, that's it!
Use the Laser Cannon!
It can burn and cut branches; if we increase the power, it can definitely burn Japanese enforcement ships. It would be best to make it like a drone model, remote-controlled. Fighting Japan would be like bullying a novice, right?
"Okay, when I go back, I'll dig a big pool. I can definitely finish it within half a year," Lu Shenwei said confidently.
If you talk about looking at beautiful women, Lu Shenwei might not even lift an eyelid, but if you talk about dealing with Japan, Lu Shenwei wouldn't even sleep.
The evil of Japan is known to the whole world.
As long as the Japanese island doesn't sink for a day, Lu Shenwei will not be able to sleep or eat in peace.
Of course, Lu Shenwei is not cold-hearted. Before Japan sinks, he could bring over all the professional teachers from there.
People like Ishihara Misato, Ueto Aya, Tenshi Meng, and so on.
There are too many good teachers, and Lu Shenwei can't remember them all clearly.
But he only allows those who are beautiful with sweet voices, good at their jobs, and not clingy to come.
Gu Ming asked in surprise: "I was just talking nonsense, you're not taking it seriously, are you?"
"Don't say that. The equipment plan is already formed in my mind. You don't need to worry about the budget; we'll give you the finished product when the time comes."
Lu Shenwei patted his chest to guarantee; he could lose money on R&D just to fix Japan.
After bidding farewell to Gu Ming, Lu Shenwei immediately dialed Ma Quanlin.
"Uncle Ma, have the design institute plan an artificial lake in our factory area, with a depth of at least 100 meters and an area of at least 200 mu."
"What's it for? Anyway, it's definitely not for raising fish."
Ma Quanlin looked confused, but Lu Shenwei never did anything superficial. If he said he wanted to dig a 100-meter artificial lake, Ma Quanlin would definitely not just dig 99 meters.
Before Lu Shenwei finished speaking, a young soldier reminded him that the exercise preparatory meeting was about to be held.
"Uncle Ma, that's the task. I'm going to the meeting first."
"You go ahead and get busy, I'll discuss it with the others first."
Ma Quanlin muttered to himself, wondering where Lu Shenwei had gone, being so mysterious.
In the evening, at the Zhuri Base Command Center.
The famous Colonel Man and Chen Guang shook hands heavily. The exercise command center leadership introduced both sides and asked everyone to play with style and skill.
Colonel Man's expression was calm, while Chen Guang was full of confidence.
"Is that Colonel Man?"
"Doesn't he look unremarkable?"
"Yeah, the kind you wouldn't be able to find in a crowd."
"Don't be fooled by his appearance; he is very powerful. His combat level is one of the best in the whole of Dragon Xia."
"I hope Chen Guang can make him cry."
Gu Ming laughed: "Make Colonel Man cry? That kind of person probably hasn't been born yet."
"Director Gu, just wait and see, Chen Guang will definitely win," Lu Shenwei said confidently.
