Chapter 508 Storm! (Second Update!)
Seeing the 11 lines appearing in the west, except for Lin Yu, the rest of the people's hearts tightened at this moment.
These 11 lines were not arranged in a straight line, nor in order, but they all hit the close-in defense gun.
The speed was very fast.
The moment the telescope saw this line, it had actually rushed in front of the close-in defense gun.
In the sight of a group of people, the close-in defense gun standing on the top of the mountain began to shake its head like a madman, shaking its head desperately.
Shaking its head up and down,
The only thing that remained unchanged was the flame ejected from the barrel.
It was about three or four meters long and had never been broken.
Or it was broken, but because the second firing was faster, it was connected, giving people a feeling that it had never been broken.
The golden flames burst out, followed by the explosion of 11 lines.
These 11 lines that came from afar seemed to hit a transparent glass wall. The glass wall was extremely hard, causing these 11 lines to crash into the glass wall one by one.
Finally, the close-in defense gun that was shaking its head wildly in the telescope stopped shaking its head, and the explosion stopped with the close-in defense gun.
At this time, the sound of the rocket exploding in the distance and the sound of the close-in defense gun spitting bullets wildly came to everyone, allowing everyone to enjoy a belated auditory feast.
The sound of the close-in defense gun spitting bullets was as smooth as a tailor tearing a strip of cloth.
And the sound of the rocket being exploded in the air was like the sound of the scissors sliding off the counter again and again when the tailor tore the strip of cloth.
Listening to these sounds in his ears, Fang Jianguo slowly put down the telescope, turned around, looked at the person behind him who was monitoring the speed of the rocket, and asked:
"What is the speed of the rocket at the end?"
The engineer responsible for monitoring the speed of the rocket raised his head and responded calmly: "1.8 Mach, it is a reduced charge version. The next batch will be faster and there will be more."
After the engineer finished speaking, he turned around and tapped on the keyboard in front of him, preparing to save the data just now.
The other engineers who were responsible for monitoring the close-in weapon system were much more irritable. They grabbed the laptops beside them, rushed out of the fortifications, drove their cars, and rushed towards the close-in weapon system in the distance.
After these people left, Fang Jianguo came to Lin Yu, smiling and asking gently:
"Why do I feel that you are not very excited?"
At this moment, Lin Yu seemed to be unconcerned about the results of this test. He just quietly nestled in the fortifications and silently served his pot of hot water.
After hearing Fang Jianguo's question, he did not speak immediately, but waited until the pot of hot water in front of him boiled, took out a small bag of tea from his pocket, and poured half of it into the kettle.
When the tea fragrance gushed out of the kettle, he explained while pouring water from the kettle:
"There is no need to be so excited about things that can already guess the results."
"If people are excited every day, it will hurt the liver and easily cause high blood pressure."
Looking at his calm appearance, Fang Jianguo took the teacup with a strange look on his face, held the cup with both hands, and slowly began to drink tea.
If he hadn't read Lin Yu's information, he would even doubt whether this was an antique based on Lin Yu's current actions.
And it was the kind of old antique who was very knowledgeable and very old.
Even if he saw it himself, he would have to call it a conservative antique.
After drinking half a cup of tea, he relieved the dryness brought by the northern grasslands, and whispered again:
"Are you still testing today?"
Putting down the teapot, Lin Yu glanced at the time, 11 o'clock in the morning.
According to the process established at the beginning, the entire inspection work will last about 1 hour, and then it will be loading bullets.
Just now, the close-in defense gun was very powerful. Excluding the rest time, the total spraying time was about 20 seconds, and the result was that about 2,000 shells were consumed.
The next round of testing is more rigorous, and more shells need to be installed. Because they are not on the ship, these shells can only be transported manually and loaded into the ammunition belt.
The time to load the shells...
Fortunately, I didn't load the shells myself.
After complaining in his heart, Lin Yu said gloatingly:
"There is another round of testing, but we have to record the data of this round first, then disassemble it and check the inside of the close-in defense gun."
"And we need to load the shells for the next round of tests."
"Confirm that there are no problems before we can proceed to the next round."
As he spoke, Lu Huaxi next to him, holding a teacup in his left hand and a telescope in his right hand, walked to the earth wall and looked into the distance.
On the grassland, more than a dozen all-terrain transport vehicles and cranes from Rheinsteel were gathering towards the close-in defense gun from all directions.
The all-terrain transport vehicle stopped, and the crane raised its boom, moving the shells transported by the transport vehicle to the dedicated close-in defense artillery ammunition slots one by one.
The only good thing is that these shells have been loaded into the ammunition belt when they were in the box. Now they only need to connect the ammunition belt to complete the assembly.
Through the telescope, Lu Huaxi took in all of this, turned his head quietly, and asked Lin Yu:
"Do we need to be so troublesome when we are on the ship?"
"No need!" Lin Yu shook his head, came to Lu Huaxi with the telescope, stood beside him, pointed the telescope at the distance, looked for a while, and said:
"The Yue Province we built uses electric propulsion and lacks the big crankshaft in the middle, so the space inside the ship is very generous."
"In our concept, both the close-in defense gun and the main gun will have a unique fully automatic loading system."
"This fully automatic loading system can lift the shells out of the ammunition magazine on their own, then advance along the system and finally be inserted into the barrel."
“The entire process can be operated unmanned.”
"It can minimize the loss of firepower."
The words "fully automatic loading system" made Lu Huaxi fall into silence.
Because most of today's ships have semi-automatic loading systems, which require people to take out the ammunition from the magazine and stuff it into a dedicated loading area before loading.
Such speed is naturally inferior to fully automatic reloading.
If the new ship can be equipped with such a system and can operate normally, then Huaxia's subsequent ships can also be equipped with such a system.
Then...
Even the naval gun on the bow of the ship will fire faster than others. At that time, there may be a scenario where others fire two guns and this side fires 10 or even 20 guns.
At this moment, Lu Huaxi closed his eyes. He did not dare to imagine such happiness.
Did you fire?
Is it open?
Then come and meet the storm of shells!
After a moment of satisfied imagination, a smile broke out on his face, and then he cast the telescope into the distance again.
Looking over this time, I saw that the crane in the distance had retracted its boom and was preparing to move out.
The engineers also got off the close-in defense guns, drove their cars, and drove towards their location.
About 10 minutes later, these engineers returned to the fortifications and returned to their loyal computer monitors.
Put down the laptop in your hand, connect to the server with a data cable, copy and archive all the data.
Then there is the analysis.
During their analysis, the cooking class delivered meals. After a hearty meal, a group of people did not rest, but hurriedly threw themselves into work.
By the time the analysis was completed, the time hand had pointed to 15 o'clock.
At 15:07, the engineer in charge of leading the team finally raised his head, took a deep breath, leaned back on his chair, and said to Lin Yu: "Director, we can start the second test."
Hearing that the second round of testing could begin, Lin Yu picked up the earphone next to the console and hung it on his head, adjusted the microphone, and started calling:
"This is the command center. Please answer when you receive it at the launch site. Please answer when you receive it."
"This is the launch site, please speak to the command center."
"Now for round 2, repeat, now for round 2."
"Received at the launch site!"
At the launch site 10 kilometers to the west, after receiving news from Lin Yu, three rocket launchers that had been ready for launch slowly raised their launchers.
They are also improved rockets, but these three launch vehicles have 24-round rocket launchers.
After a brief countdown, the three launch vehicles launched simultaneously, with a total of 72 rockets piercing the sky and speeding towards the distant sky.
The distance of 10 kilometers only took more than 20 seconds under the full push of the rocket engine.
In the fortification, even Lu Huaxi couldn't help but take a breath when he saw the rockets in the distant sky that were like heavy rain.
He quickly turned back and asked Lin Yu, "Can you handle this?"
Faced with the old man's question, Lin Yu did not respond immediately, but looked at the monitor in front of him with burning eyes.
This is the radar monitoring display.
The engineer in front of the monitoring monitor was sweating all over, his eyes widened, staring at the data in front of him:
"The rocket's terminal speed reaches Mach 2.7!"
"The radar has locked all targets, 72 targets, and the computer is calculating the interception sequence."
"Start intercepting!"
With his shout, the people in the fortification stood up one after another, left their positions, came to the wall, and looked through the gaps in the fortification at the close-range defense cannon in the distance.
Just as they stood up, the rockets and the shells of the close-range anti-aircraft guns had collided.
Facing the rocket launchers that came like a torrential rain, the close-in defense gun once again transformed into a bobble head monster, raising its head and nodding its head crazily.
Every time it swings, a golden chain will be spit out, and there will definitely be a rocket at the far end of the golden chain.
The golden chain collided with the rocket, and the rocket exploded in the air, exploding into a black cloud in the daylight.
The 72 rockets did not arrive at the same time because of the order in which they were fired.
This short time gap gave the close-in defense artillery an opportunity to adjust its posture.
In the heavy rain caused by rockets, the close-in defense artillery exploded these 72 rockets one by one, without a single rocket falling.
All that fell was the exploded shrapnel.
The shrapnel shattered by the explosion flew down from high altitude. Some hit the close-in defense cannon and made a clanging sound, while some fell directly to the ground and penetrated deeply into the soil.
This attack and defense seemed like a century to Lin Yu and others, but when everyone turned around, they turned their attention to the engineer responsible for recording the attack and defense time.
The other party shrugged helplessly and said with a dry smile: "It took a total of 37 seconds from the first bullet to the last bullet."
After reporting the time, the engineer smiled at everyone, and then spit out another number:
"A total of 6,534 shells were used, and the price of one shell was 1,000 yuan."
The people present, the older ones were all experts, and the younger ones were all college students, so they could naturally calculate this math problem very clearly.
37 seconds, 6,534,000 yuan was gone.
No, there were a total of 72 rockets, and one rocket should cost at least 30,000 yuan!
After getting these data, except for Lin Yu, everyone present subconsciously pressed their chests.
Burning money, too much money!
But their sadness did not last too long, and even greater sadness came.
"Director, the computing chip seems to have burned, and the circuit board seems to have burned as well!"
"Director, a chip is indeed burned. We can call and start it, but we can't control the rotation."
"The radar seems to have burned too, but there is no problem. We brought spare parts this time, so there is no need to worry!"
"Director..."
The voices coming one after another made Fang Jianguo from the Equipment Department subconsciously bend down and want to leave stealthily.
He took only two steps when Lin Yu saw him and stopped him:
"Director Fang, how can you run away?"
"Whether this equipment is qualified, whether it can be used, and whether there is any progress, you still have to worry about it."
"As for whether there are enough shells, that is the concern of the General Logistics Department."
"You don't need to press the shells."
After hearing these two sentences, Fang Jianguo was also stunned.
Yes, he is from the Equipment Department, and he only needs to verify whether the equipment is qualified and whether it can meet the use requirements.
Logistics is not under his control!
He stood there for a while, hesitating, and then returned to his previous position, holding the telescope in his left hand and the teacup in his right hand, drinking tea calmly.
He had just taken two sips when Lu Huaxi came over, pouting and hesitantly saying:
"Lin Yu, I think you should keep this equipment on the boat for the time being, not on the shore."
"I'm not saying that this equipment is not good, but that this is a bit too logistical."
"I think if you put this thing on the car, the first person who will shout and kill you will definitely be your Grandpa Qian."
"He will definitely chase you all over the street with a hammer."
Faced with his persuasion, Lin Yu shook his head gently in response:
"Don't worry, old man, even if Grandpa Qian gets angry and wants to hit someone, he won't hit me, he will hit Qian Jianguo, his useless one."
"Or he will hit Qian Jianguo's sons, anyway, he won't hit me."
"Besides, I really don't have the idea of moving this thing to the shore or to the truck now."
"So you don't have to worry at all."
"Let's go, let's go under the close-in defense gun and see the power of this big killer."
Hearing Lin Yu's proposal, no one present refused.
After all, no one can refuse a gun, especially a close-in defense gun installed on a ship!
