Chapter 354: Build a Better Country Than Japan
354
Lu Zhanheng carried Tang Yue all the way to Lab 9, entered the room, and closed the door. His movements were smooth and effortless, without any hesitation. The researchers who followed him almost bumped their noses into the door.
"Hey, Lao Lu, you are such a dishonest person. How could you lock Xiao Yueyue in the room? Let the child out quickly."
"Yes, Mr. Lu, get out here right now! What are you doing? You're kidnapping me. Do you understand what kidnapping means?"
"Lu, come out and compete fairly. Don't act recklessly just because you're better than us."
The door of Laboratory No. 9 was banging loudly as everyone knocked on it. The noise outside seemed to have nothing to do with Lu Zhanheng. He carefully placed Tang Yue on his somewhat messy table.
Tang Yue sat on the table, unconsciously swinging her legs. She looked at the excited researchers around her and smiled helplessly. Just now, when Lu Zhanheng left, he told the people in the room not to move while he went out to get the person back.
It turns out that the director is really amazing. He was able to get this amazing little guy into their Laboratory No. 9 so easily despite being surrounded and blocked by so many people. It’s really exciting, isn’t it?
This is a genius! She was able to secretly bring back the Japanese warship. What is that? It's a Japanese warship. And not only that, she also brought back a lot of cutting-edge technology.
Not only in the military, but also in many other fields. Through this, China's technology will be advanced by ten years, no, more than ten years.
Lu Zhanheng couldn't wait to point at the various old and new drawings spread out on the table. Suddenly, a tense atmosphere of scientific research filled the air. Lu Zhanheng brought another pile of drawings from the corner and said anxiously, "Xiao Yueyue, you're finally back!
I went to see the warships you brought back from Japan, and they are truly treasures! We have been researching them for a while, but many technical problems have stumped us.
Tang Yue glanced at the pile of drawings in Lu Zhanheng's hand and nodded slightly, indicating that he should continue. Lu Zhanheng picked up a drawing with a rough sketch of the warship's power system.
He frowned and said, "Take the power system for example. The gap between our country's current warship power and Japan's latest technology is too big.
The gas turbines originally planned for our frigates could not be developed, so we have been using civilian diesel engines instead, which has affected the performance and reliability of the ships to a certain extent.
However, Japan's power system technology is much more mature and advanced than ours. You see, they use a gas turbine power unit that is more suitable for ship use. The stability and performance of the power system are better than ours, which can provide more reliable power support for the ships.
Not only that, their warships have small power plants but surprisingly high output power, but we still haven't fully understood many aspects of these technical principles."
Tang Yue looked at the blueprint carefully, recalling the structure of the power plant on the Japanese warship. After thinking for a moment, she said, "Uncle Lu, Japan is indeed far ahead of us in this regard.
"Gas turbine power plants are indeed much better than ours. Furthermore, their engine materials have been specially treated to withstand high temperatures and high pressures, allowing the engines to operate efficiently and maintain stability."
Lu Zhanheng's eyes lit up, and he quickly took notes in the notebook beside him, muttering to himself, "Yes, yes, and there are also materials. Materials are also a problem. Alas, we still lack technology and resources. There are many things we can't compare with them at all."
Lu Zhanheng didn't care whether Tang Yue could give any feasible suggestions. He wanted to finish discussing the problems he had summarized with Tang Yue first.
He pointed to another drawing, which showed the fire control system of the warship. "Yueyue, look, there is also this fire control. Our best "Chuandu" class frigate was originally a gun and torpedo frigate. Later, anti-ship missiles were installed, but there are only two of them, so their combat effectiveness is limited.
The "Jiangnan" class frigates use dismantled 100mm single-barreled coastal guns to replace the ship's main guns, and the air defense weapons are mainly small-caliber anti-aircraft guns 12.
Look at this Japanese ship "Chikuho". It is not equipped with anti-ship missiles, but only one MK33 76mm twin-barreled naval gun, but this naval gun is controlled by GFCS-1 naval gun director and 1B type gun aiming radar, with a firing rate of 50 rounds per minute.
Not only that, in terms of air defense, there are two Bofors 40mm single-barrel automatic cannons, controlled by the MK51 secondary gun director, and the degree of automation is slightly higher than our Chinese Type 61 37mm anti-aircraft gun of the same period."
Finally, Lu Zhanheng sighed, "Yueyue, if this really breaks out at sea, the pressure on our Chinese warships will be enormous."
As Tang Yue listened to Lu Zhanheng's story, she constructed the differences between the two countries' warships in her mind, and many strange ideas popped up in her mind. In fact, it was not difficult to solve these problems.
"Uncle Lu, are you trying to catch up with the technology of Japanese warships?"
Lu Zhanheng's eyes lit up when he heard Tang Yue's words. It seemed like there was a way. He nodded hurriedly, "Yueyue, if we can catch up with Japan's technology, then there's nothing else to say. We'll definitely be happy."
Yueyue, with our current strength, can we do it?"
Tang Yue thought about it and shook her head. "Ah? No way?"
Lu Zhanheng's good mood was gone, and even the other people in the lab looked at Tang Yue with disappointment. Her sad eyes seemed to say, "Even you can't do it?"
Tang Yue couldn't bear to see these people's disappointed expressions. She sighed. "Uncle Lu, the Japanese ship 'Zhu Hou' is just so-so. If we were to build one, we'd definitely have to build something better than theirs, several times better."
"What?"
Lu Zhanheng stared at Tang Yue in disbelief. Doesn't this girl know what she's talking about? How much better? With Japan's current technology and materials, it's hard for them to even catch up.
Tang Yue didn't say much. She jumped down from the table and said, "Uncle Lu, let's leave it at that for today. Once I think about it and draw the blueprint, we can talk about the follow-up."
Lu Zhanheng and the other people in the lab didn't expect that what Tang Yue said was true, and she seemed so confident. How could Lu Zhanheng let her go like this?
He grabbed the little girl. Yes, who is this? This is the little girl who, in his eyes, can do anything. The little girl who dared to engage in a gun battle with dozens of Japanese spies at the age of five.
Has he been in the lab for too long? How could he have forgotten the little girl's abilities?
His big face was full of smiles, and he held Tang Yue's arm tightly, "Hey, Yueyue, are you serious? Can we really build warships that are stronger than Japan's? Not only must they be fast, but their firepower must also be more powerful than theirs.
Oh, and air defense capabilities, too, with radar, sonar, communications, and other electronic equipment?"
Tang Yue smiled, "Yes, it's definitely better than theirs. Uncle Lu, don't worry, give me a few days. If we want to do it, we have to make it something that Japan can't even catch up with."
Lu Zhanheng rubbed his hands together excitedly. "Okay, well, Yueyue, don't worry. Just take your time and draw it. You'll definitely be able to defeat Japan."
Tang Yue nodded seriously, and Lu Zhanheng reluctantly escorted her to the entrance of Lab 9. The people outside sensed that someone was already discussing something inside, and since they knew what was most important, they all fell silent.
Although people wanted to grab it, since they hadn't grabbed it before, they couldn't make trouble outside, right? The more they did that, the slower it would be, right? So everyone automatically quieted down.
But no one left, they were all still waiting. Warships are important, and so are supercomputers.
As soon as the door of Laboratory No. 9 opened, everyone rushed over.
Lu Zhanheng waved his hand and said, "Back off, everyone! What are you doing? You're going to step on the little girl like that! Back off, quick! Back off!"
