Chapter VI Live-fire Testing
The iron table was too heavy for the soldiers to carry it to battle! The first question raised at the war zone meeting appeared, and all the R&D personnel present looked at each other dumbfounded. Fortunately, Hu Fei had been prepared for this, and as soon as he saw that there was a problem that the soldiers couldn't lift the table, he immediately launched an improvement plan: install wheels!
The devil's tank sinks, right? Put on the tracks and it runs fast! The board car can pull heavy objects with wheels, and if the iron table is equipped with wheels, it is estimated that it should be no problem to lift itself, right? Just do it, Hu Fei, the chief engineer, gave the order, and the experts of the Theater Armor Research and Development Department immediately took action.
Thanks to the work of these experts, soon the iron table was equipped with rubber wheels on each of its four legs, and the heavy iron table could be moved freely on the spot. Hu Fei was very happy when he saw it, and he didn't think that it would be difficult to develop a weapon! Someone invited Chief Wei to come over for a visit, but was stopped by Hu Fei. This is a research battlefield armor and not a toy, you don't even know if you can use it or not, what do you ask the chief to see? Try it first! When the test is successful, I will invite the chief to come and visit.
Director Bai found a two-horse cart, and found 20 people to carry the iron table onto the carriage and pull it to the shooting range in the suburbs of Luoyang. The gunners and sharpshooters from the R&D department arrived, as well as rifles, machine guns, mortars and other weapons, as well as corresponding bullets and shells. Hu Fei wanted to use live ammunition to test the specific protection ability of the iron table.
In order to test the effect and prevent accidental injuries, Hu Fei had the soldiers trap a goat under the iron table. If the sheep are okay after the test shot, the person will almost be able to withstand the shock.
Hit with a rifle first. The sharpshooter held the formal rifle and fired five shots in a row, and when he finished the shot, he came to see that there was no other damage on the iron table except for two shallow marks on the table. Switched to a Czech light machine gun. After a shuttle of bullets, there were many more marks on the table than on the rifle, but there was still no actual damage. If you want to use a gun to penetrate the tabletop, don't even think about thousands of rounds, this thing is really bulletproof!
This was followed by test-firing shells. The mortar "tom tom" fired three shots in a row, and the gunner was really on the right head, and all three shots hit the table!
After the cannon was shot, Hu Fei took the experts over to check, and saw that there were three recessed craters on the iron table, which were several times larger than the area hit by the bullet just now, and the depth reached a finger deep! The four-finger-thick table is estimated to be no problem resisting ten or eight mortar shells, and even the Type 92 infantry gun should be able to carry two or three rounds.
Although this kind of protection is not perfect, it is basically in line with the requirements. You know, the protection ability of the devil bean chariot was not so strong at that time.
The tabletop's resistance to blows should be considered satisfactory, but other aspects are not so perfect. The poor goat who was tied under the table unfortunately sacrificed his life for national defense technology, and the goat was shocked to death by the explosion of the shell! The four wheels on the table leg also cracked the two. It seems that except for the iron table itself, all the other additional conditions are weak links!
Hu Fei circled around the iron table three times, touching his chin with his hand to make a contemplative gesture, in fact, he didn't have a score in his heart about how to get this thing!
"Why is the devil's chariot okay when it gets shelled?" The sharpshooter came down from a combat unit, and his topic was always inseparable from the battlefield.
"Who said that the devil chariot is not afraid of shells? Lao Tzu used the 37 battle anti-artillery to load steel core bullets, one hit and one accurate, and one shot was never ambiguous! "The gunner is not convinced, you say that the devil chariot is powerful, but if you say that he is not afraid of shells, isn't he scolding the gunner behind his back?
"Of course, it's okay for the war defense artillery to hit the devil chariot, but aren't we talking about mortars now? Our iron table can't stand the mortar, and the devil's chariot will be fine with a few mortar shells. I've seen it before! ”
Devil chariot, devil chariot? Hu Fei had a picture of the devil's chariot being hit by a mortar in his mind. That's right, that guy is generally fine after being hit by a mortar shot, and what to do after the shell, the devil driver and devil gunner in it are fine. What is the reason for this?
The first test was declared a failure. When Hu Fei returned, his mind was full of the sheep that was shaken to death under the iron table. So much so that after going back, Zhang Yayi and Feng Yi didn't have any special reaction when they came back. Feng Yi didn't do it now, he came over and took Hu Fei's hand and asked him to have a dinner!
What food can't be made in the kitchen of the theater command? What do you want to eat? But women are sometimes so unreasonable, Feng Yi said that she would take Hu Fei out to go shopping and eat, and Zhang Yayi also stood aside with Feng Yi. Hu Fei had no choice but to put down his iron table and cannonballs, and accompany the two beauties to taste the food of Luoyang.
Speaking of Luoyang's food, the most famous is the Luoyang water seat. Legend has it that the Luoyang water seat is handed down in the Tang Dynasty to this day, up to the emperor's relatives, down to the small people of Shengdou, all the weddings, funerals, weddings, trading and other major events that need to be celebrated are all to the water seat as the best seat.
There is a town table dish called green onion grilled tiger head carp in the water banquet, which is a dish made of Yellow River carp, and the fish head should be facing the most distinguished guests at the table when the dish is served. Hu Fei is undoubtedly the leader among the three, and when the waiter puts the fish on the table, he naturally puts the head of the fish towards Hu Fei.
Whoever the head of the fish points to, who has to move the chopsticks first. Although Hu Fei didn't quite understand this rule, he saw that the big carp with golden color and excellent appearance was still appetizing, and he stretched out his chopsticks and poked it on the fish's head. Poof, the chopsticks slipped, but they didn't even hit the fish's head.
Hu Fei was stunned for a moment.
"Yayi, eat quickly, Fei Ge has already moved his chopsticks!" Feng Yi knew the rules, and when he saw Hu Fei poking the fish head, he immediately picked up his chopsticks and grabbed a piece of fish steak meat. Just wanted to put it in his bowl, but when he saw Hu Fei in a daze, he raised his hand and put the fish in front of Hu Fei, "Brother Fei, what do you want?" You don't even eat such a good tiger carp? ”
"Huh? Eat, eat, of course I ate. Hu Fei smiled, stretched out his chopsticks to pick up the fish and put it in his mouth. Sure enough, it is fragrant and delicious. The three people who ate a Luoyang water banquet were in a good mood. After eating, they walked around the street scene of Luoyang again, and it was not until it was getting late that the three of them returned to the dormitory of the chief's department.
Feng Yi was obviously a little excited today, and after returning to the dormitory, she was still chattering. Fortunately, no outsiders came to the dormitory of Hu Fei, the chief engineer, otherwise it would be inevitable that the two women living here would have had trouble again.
At half past nine in the evening, it was time to go back to the bedroom to rest, Feng Yi suddenly smiled sweetly at Hu Fei and squeezed his left eye, Hu Fei was stunned at that time.
