Scholars in the courtyard

"Then let's talk about the second thing."

After finishing talking about the thunder, Mr. Chen spoke again.

This time, Yang Xiaotao's expression also became serious.

Because this second thing is related to airplanes.

"The alliance said that there were two latest bombers developed by the United States in this attack, and they want the wreckage of these two aircraft."

Having said this, Mr. Chen took out a photo from the drawer and said, "This was taken in Shanghai at that time. It is a little blurry, but the outline can still be seen clearly."

Mr. Qin took it and looked at it, then passed it to several people.

Finally, Yang Xiaotao took the photo and took a look at it. At first glance, it looked familiar. But when he looked more closely, he looked a bit like Lao Shi in later generations.

Everyone looked at Yang Xiaotao and found that this guy was deep in thought.

After a while, Yang Xiaotao came to his senses and put the photo on the table. Only then did he realize that several people were looking at him.

Ahem

"Well, my opinion is, don't give any of them."

After the words fell, several people were a little surprised.

Don't give any of them. What do you mean, these broken things are so valuable?

"I, I think the other party wants a pile of wreckage, which means the wreckage is very useful."

"It's just that we don't know."

Yang Xiaotao didn't explain too much, just gave a perfunctory sentence, and Mr. Chen and others didn't ask any further questions.

They didn't know the secret here, but they didn't expect that Yang Xiaotao would refuse.

"Okay, that's all for now."

"Let you come and produce Thunder as soon as possible. Before the transaction starts, the more the better."

"As for the machinery factory, if you have any difficulties, just ask."

Yang Xiaotao nodded. Their biggest hardship now was to hand over the engine work.

Mr. Chen looked at a few people, and finally his eyes fell on Mr. Wang, "Old Wang, you go back and think about it carefully."

"Reply this matter as soon as possible."

Mr. Wang immediately nodded. If the machinery factory does not care about this matter, then their Seventh Machinery Department must take over the task as soon as possible and cannot delay production.

Everyone stood up and prepared to leave.

"Xiao Tao, wait a moment."

Yang Xiaotao was about to get up and sat down again.

After a few people left, Mr. Chen asked, "How is the research on titanium-rhenium alloys at your Alloy Research Institute?"

"Titanium-rhenium alloy? It is still under research, because the raw materials are too expensive and the process progress is a bit slow."

"But it should be no problem to produce it."

"What's wrong? Chief."

Yang Xiaotao was a little curious, why did he suddenly talk about this?

Mr. Chen said cautiously, "Do you know if the alliance has titanium-rhenium alloy?"

Yang Xiaotao was startled, and then asked suspiciously, "Don't they have one?"

Mr. Chen nodded seriously.

At this time, Yang Xiaotao was scratching his head.

I thought that something couldn't be made in a general grid like the Alliance. How could it not be possible?

But Mr. Chen's expression was very serious, "Our comrades discovered that when the other party learned that we were seeking to purchase rhenium metal, they were inquiring about the news, and we also found out that they were also inquiring about the titanium-rhenium alloy production process in the United States."

Now Yang Xiaotao couldn't sit still.

"You mean, they haven't mastered the production technology of titanium-rhenium alloy yet?"

Mr. Chen nodded silently, "There is only one person who can master this technology right now, and that is the United States."

"But now, there is one more of us."

"Although it's still very raw, I can still get a glimpse of the door."

Having said this, Mr. Chen showed a proud expression.

"Really? How do you feel? I can't believe it."

Yang Xiaotao scratched his head, suddenly feeling that he had done something extraordinary and feeling a little at a loss.

"Of course it's true."

"There is also tungsten-copper alloy. They are also asking for information. It seems that there are also problems with their production process."

This time, Yang Xiaotao was not too surprised.

I have heard in my previous life that the Alliance uses titanium alloy to build submarines. That's a lot of money.

But now it seems that there may not be technical reasons for this.

If you have the right materials, who cares about the money?

Just like this, the United Star Research Institute of the steel plant is very important.

"Don't worry, our people have set up defenses around the institute, and key personnel have also been protected."

Mr. Chen saw Yang Xiaotao's worry and spoke quickly. Yang Xiaotao nodded and then said, "In fact, most of this craft is just a part of it. There are no more than five people who have actually seen it and mastered it."

Mr. Chen waved his hand after hearing this, "I am telling you this not to doubt the loyalty of comrades, but to remind you to do safety precautions."

"Our comrades have sacrificed a lot and we cannot allow them to bear additional pressure."

"You understand."

Yang Xiaotao nodded seriously.

Then he asked, "Leader, in this case, how about we hand over the craftsmanship to our superiors."

Mr. Chen snorted coldly, "Superiors? Aren't we superiors?"

"Don't always think about throwing troubles to your superiors, learn to deal with problems yourself."

"Also, regarding the thunder engine, can your machine shop do it?"

Yang Xiaotao hesitated a little, "It's not that this can't be done, it just delays things."

"What's so important?"

Yang Xiaotao lowered his head and said quietly, "We want to build a plane."

Mr. Chen was speechless after hearing this. Well, this matter is indeed important.

"Until the engine matter is finalized, you should work on it first, and then we'll talk about it later."

Yang Xiaotao could only nod, then picked up the materials and left quickly.

After leaving the office building and just about to get in the car, Yang Xiaotao saw Mr. Wang standing aside after talking to Mr. Qin and preparing to leave.

Thinking about the plane, he immediately came to Mr. Wang and said, "Chief, please wait a moment."

"Mr. Chen just talked about the wreckage. Don't forget to promise us."

Mr. Wang had a smile on his face, but he was embarrassed in his heart, "I know, don't worry, I've asked people from Shanghai to transport it here."

"Don't worry, I won't forget it."

"That's good. We are preparing to study the aircraft here. It's already April. If we don't do it, the progress will be delayed."

Yang Xiaotao said something before getting in the car and leaving.

Mr. Wang watched Yang Xiaotao leave and immediately got in the car and rushed to the Seventh Machinery Department.

"Old Zhang, don't cheat on your brother."

At the same time, Shanghai.

On board Li Guang, Zhang Wu was holding a cup of hot tea, blowing it gently, taking a sip before looking at the busy people below.

"Lao Zhang, didn't we agree to go out for a walk?"

Huang Bo walked in from outside and asked angrily when he saw Zhang Wu's complacent look.

Now the Li Guang has regained its combat effectiveness after repairs. In addition to being equipped with six upstream missiles responsible for attacking the ship, the ship is also equipped with 12 Thunder missiles.

Now, if I go out, whoever I bump into will be in trouble.

Zhang Wu put down his cup and said, "Temporary order, let us be responsible for salvaging the plane."

As he spoke, he looked towards the deck below, which was already covered with many plane wreckage.

There are two cranes erected on the deck beside it.

"What's this for? It's been blown into pieces. Why do you want it?"

Huang Bo asked incomprehensively, Zhang Wu shook his head, "Who knows, this is the chief's order."

"no way."

Hearing what Zhang Wu said, Huang Bo was also discouraged, "It seems that I won't be able to get out in the near future."

Hearing what his old friend said, Zhang Wu laughed, then leaned forward and said, "I'll tell you good news."

"What?"

"I heard that the higher-ups are preparing to build another Li Guang ship."

"real?"

"Well, this battle fully proves that this kind of guided missile destroyer is very useful."

"That's true, we have proven it in actual combat."

Huang Bo smiled confidently, but Zhang Wu patted the old brother on the shoulder, "I think, Old Huang, you are qualified for the position of captain."

"ah?"

Huang Bo couldn't react, but Zhang Wu smiled and looked out the window.

There, a crane is lifting the wreckage of a plane out of the water.

Three days later.

Sijiucheng Railway Station.

Yang Xiaotao stood aside and looked at the train with a somewhat incredible look.

Mr. Wang on the side was a little confused when he saw what was on the train.

"Old Wang, is this the wreckage you are talking about?"

Yang Xiaotao looked at Mr. Wang.

Mr. Wang scolded this unreliable guy like Lao Zhang in his heart.

Can't you sort it out?

What does it mean to send a pile of scrap metal?

I really think they are collecting rags.

"Here, I asked about this, and they said our thunder was so powerful that it would break if touched."

"I have no choice but to do this."

Mr. Wang said, and then pointed to the carriage behind him, "I told them that as long as they can be salvaged and found, they will be brought to you."

"Although there are not a hundred of them, there are definitely thirty or forty. This should be enough."

Yang Xiaotao didn't look at him, but glanced around, and finally came to the person in charge of escorting and asked, "Do you have a list?"

The person in charge shook his head after hearing this, "We don't know what it is. Anyway, except for the wings and belly, they all look the same."

Yang Xiaotao nodded and did not blame them.

Wu Zhe, Wang Xushan, Li Haonan and others who followed were running around the train, checking one by one.

Even from a distance, Yang Xiaotao could hear their cheers.

I want to think that these things are just a pile of junk to others, but to them, they are treasures to peep into secrets.

"Lao Liang, ask the machinery factory to send more vehicles and people, and then free up a few warehouses."

"Don't let go of anything on this train, not even a screw. Take them all back."

Liang Zuoxin nodded and turned around to find someone to make arrangements.

Yang Xiaotao looked at the train again and asked the person in charge, "I heard that you also shot down two special large planes. Are there any on board?"

Yang Xiaotao also tried to ask, but the person in charge nodded immediately, "I know, we went through a lot of trouble to salvage this aircraft."

"Has it been delivered? Where is it?"

Yang Xiaotao was a little excited and hurriedly asked.

The person in charge pointed to the two carriages at the back, "This thing is too big, and it fell into the water from the air and was smashed into pieces, so the parts are scattered."

Yang Xiaotao walked quickly this way while listening, and everyone around him followed.

After leaving the last car, Yang Xiaotao immediately saw a broken airplane wing.

Looking carefully, he saw the double vertical tail fins at the rear, which was similar to the design in his impression.

"Someone's coming."

Hearing the sound, the security department of the machinery factory ran over immediately.

"Be careful with the contents of these two carriages. Don't damage or omit them. Pack them all back for me."

Everyone immediately obeyed the order, and Yang Xiaotao even walked into the carriage to help carry the things.

Old Wang was watching from the side, and seeing Yang Xiaotao's expression, the hurdle in his heart seemed to be smoothed out, 'This hurdle is finally over.'
