"Ding Cheng, you are a soldier first. A soldier's duty is to protect, not bully. Some things should be done in moderation. Don't go too far." Xia Wenqiang's expression suddenly became serious, and he earnestly emphasized the discipline in the army to Ding Cheng.
He felt that Ding Cheng's thinking was greatly deviated. It was normal for him to have competitive emotions with He Beichen, but he should not involve such emotions in other people.
"I'm not..."
"I hope you can reflect on your actions. Of course, I still want to commend you for keeping your promise." While criticizing, Xia Wenqiang did not forget to give encouragement so as not to aggravate Ding Cheng's emotions.
He has already reminded Ding Cheng what he should have, and whether Ding Cheng listens or not depends on how he behaves next.
Xia Wenqiang patted him on the shoulder and then left the training ground.
He still recognizes Ding Cheng's abilities. If he can change his character, he will achieve greater success in the future.
But if it continues like this, it will be a bit risky.
“…”
Looking at Xia Wenqiang's leaving back, Ding Cheng fell into deep thought.
…
Li Xin didn't know about these things, and had no idea that the army was spreading the news of her competition with Ding Cheng.
After finishing the breakfast made by Sanmao in the morning, she staggered to the research institute.
"Old Du, are you sleeping in the research institute again?" Li Xin couldn't help but speak in surprise when he saw Du Peng.
Du Peng walked out of the laboratory early in the morning with an unshaven beard. The dark circles under his eyes were comparable to those of a panda. He said he slept in the research institute, but he must have done research all night, right?
"No, I just got back to the research institute this morning." Du Peng yawned. Although he didn't look well rested, his eyes were bright.
As soon as he saw Li Xin coming, he hurried over and pulled Li Xin into the laboratory.
"I stayed in the machinery factory for a whole day and night yesterday, and finally made something useful." Du Peng was very excited.
He hasn't been in the institute much these days. First, he went to help her get the drawings approved, and then he went to the institute to supervise, and he was very busy.
"No, you don't have to work so hard. You still have to take care of your health." Li Xin sighed lightly.
Fortunately, Xiao Du is now asked to go to the cafeteria to get breakfast in the morning. After Xiao Du brings back the breakfast, Du Peng can still have a bite of hot food.
Du Peng excitedly pulled Li Xin into the laboratory and showed Li Xin the freshly made and still warm spare parts he had brought back from the machinery factory.
The drawing that Li Xin had drawn before was copied again and placed at the machinery factory, while the original was always in Du Peng's hands.
"This, this and these three, five spare parts have already been made." Du Peng took the blueprint and put all the finished spare parts on it so that Li Xin could compare and see them more clearly.
This Type 95 rifle has a lot of spare parts. Only five of them have been made so far, and there are still many left.
However, if it can be done, the subsequent speed will be faster, because the most difficult thing is the precision.
Li Xin picked up the finished parts and examined them carefully.
Both the edges and the cut surfaces are very smooth, and it does not look like inferior quality. There is still a slight difference in the precision and data, but this result is better than Li Xin had expected.
Originally, Li Xin thought that it might not be possible with the current technology, but he didn't expect that as a major industrial country, with further improvements, it is entirely possible to produce spare parts with accurate data.
"What do you think? I feel there is still a little error, but this is already the best batch made recently." Du Peng explained to her and asked.
"I think it's pretty good, but there's still room for improvement. We shouldn't need to improve the blueprints. It would be a great thing if we could make it according to the data on the blueprints." Li Xin nodded, looking a little excited.
Although she was prepared to improve the blueprints, the lack of precision in the spare parts would further affect the performance of the gun.
It is very likely that there is no need to improve the blueprints now, which is a major leap in the history of weapons.
Maybe, after this gun, she can also put HK416 on the agenda.
"Really? I wanted to show it to you. If possible, these spare parts can be made first. A new gun cannot be made in one go. It takes a few more attempts. It will be more convenient to make more spare parts. If it succeeds, it will be convenient to assemble it directly later, without having to wait for time for production." Du Peng also smiled and told her his thoughts.
The machinery factory is not like their research institute, which only produces a few spare parts at a time for research.
When they started producing there, they did it in large quantities, and that little bit was not enough for the machines to handle.
"Okay, but I want to go to the machinery factory with you. This batch of parts should be able to be made more perfect. Let's test it twice more. If it works, we'll do it according to your idea." Li Xin suggested.
Li Xin fully supports Du Peng's idea, but she doesn't want to make inferior products because he wants to produce them in large quantities.
Li Xin wanted to communicate on his own to see if there was any better way to improve the quality of this batch of spare parts.
"Will you come with me?" Du Peng looked her over.
He was wondering whether it was safe to take Li Xin to the machinery factory. If something went wrong, not only the old commander, but He Beichen would not forgive him after he came back.
"I don't have much to do in the institute. The batch of old guns we received yesterday have been collected and distributed to everyone to start repairing. For those that cannot be repaired, we will report and apply for replacement." Li Xin thought he was worried about delaying the institute's work, so he quickly explained the situation to him.
Speaking of replacement, Li Xin remembered what Du Peng said, that a batch of new submachine guns would be sent over, but no one knew when they would arrive, as it had been said for quite some time.
"Okay, then wait for me. I need to report this matter to my superiors." Du Peng agreed without much hesitation.
When the two came out of the laboratory, Xiao Du just took out breakfast. She asked Du Peng to have breakfast at the institute before reporting.
The higher-ups did not stop it and were even very supportive. They sent a car to pick Li Xin up.
"The gap between people is too big. I have been running to the machinery factory for several days, and I have always gone there by myself. No car has ever been sent to pick me up." Du Peng looked at the military vehicle that came to pick him up and couldn't help wiping away sad tears.
The last time he was picked up by a military vehicle was when he was returning from an exchange in the capital. It was also on that trip that he met He Beichen and Li Xin on the train. It was quite a wonderful fate.
"Let's go." Li Xin pulled him into the car.
It is quite convenient to have a car, but the road is difficult to drive on. It took an hour to finally reach the machinery factory.
