Chapter 254 General Lin is shocked
Li Yang was a little nervous, but more excited and proud.
He took a deep breath and said loudly: "Uncle Lin, you're here just in time! I have a surprise for you."
General Lin became interested immediately after hearing this.
He smiled and patted Li Yang's shoulder, his tone doting: "Haha, Xiao Li, you love to keep things in suspense! Come on, take me to see what treasure it is that makes you so excited?"
Li Yang smiled mysteriously and led General Lin to the depths of the workshop.
Pushing open a heavy iron door, the view in front of you suddenly opens up - rows of brand-new machine tools are neatly arranged, shining with a cold metallic luster under the fluorescent lights.
General Lin's attention was immediately attracted.
He looked around in astonishment and was speechless for a long time.
You know, the army used to use imported Russian machine tools. Although they were strong and durable, they were old after all.
But these devices, no matter in shape or workmanship, are so exquisite and advanced that they are simply eye-catching!
"Xiao Li, this...this is all made by yourselves?" General Lin asked stutteringly, his voice trembling a little.
He walked forward and reverently stroked the smooth outer shell of a CNC milling machine, as if he was touching a rare treasure.
Li Yang nodded proudly, his eyes sparkling with excitement: "That's right, Uncle Lin! This is all the original design of our steel mill, from beginning to end, without any external help! Look at this milling machine, the coaxiality of the spindle alone is controlled within 0.005mm, which is three times more accurate than imported ones! And..."
Li Yang talked endlessly about the unique features of each machine tool, and he was like a child showing off his new toy.
General Lin nodded repeatedly, and the expression on his face gradually changed from initial shock to sincere admiration.
"Amazing! Really amazing!" General Lin exclaimed sincerely, "Xiao Li, you guys are really amazing! Just based on these few 'treasures', they are also top-notch in the national machine tool industry! If the military industry can use these advanced equipment, what problems will there be in manufacturing weapons and equipment?"
When he heard the word "military industry", Li Yang's eyes brightened.
He leaned close to General Lin's ear mysteriously and whispered: "Uncle Lin, I'm not just making a few machine tools. Look at me here..."
As he spoke, Li Yang took out a few metal parts from his pocket and placed them in front of General Lin.
They were several sections of finely crafted gun barrels, with hardened and frosted surfaces, shiny black, and exuding a murderous aura.
General Lin's breathing suddenly became rapid.
He took the gun barrel tremblingly, examining every inch of the texture carefully, his eyes filled with heat and shock.
As a veteran soldier, he knew exactly what this meant - this was cutting-edge manufacturing technology that could rival that of Western powers!
"Come, Uncle Lin, let me demonstrate it to you." Li Yang took over the conversation excitedly, skillfully clamped the gun barrel on the machine tool, and pressed the start button.
With a "buzz" sound, the tool began to spin at high speed, and sparks flew out and scattered all over the ground.
After a while, a brand new gun barrel was produced.
Li Yang carefully took it off, wiped it clean, and handed it to General Lin.
General Lin took a look at it and immediately gasped - the barrel was as smooth as a mirror, without a single scratch; on the inner chamber, the rifling spiraled neatly, and each groove was of the same depth, which was simply perfect!
"Oh my God... Xiao Li, you, how did you do it?" General Lin was so excited that he could not speak clearly. He held the gun barrel tightly, as if he was afraid that it would suddenly disappear.
Li Yang smiled proudly and pointed at the unique machine tool: "Uncle Lin, look, this is the EDM machine tool I just developed! It can 'print' any complex rifling inside the barrel, and the accuracy is as high as 0.01mm, which is not inferior to the level of the old military factories!"
Hearing this, General Lin felt his head buzzing and he felt a little dazed.
He stared blankly at the completely black machine tool, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses. He excitedly grabbed Li Yang's hand and said, "Xiao Li! You have made a great contribution this time! With these 'killer weapons', how can we worry about not being able to improve the quality of our guns and cannons?"
As he spoke, General Lin could no longer contain his joy and began to walk around the workshop.
He carefully examined each device, asking endlessly about their performance parameters and technical principles, looking like he was humbly seeking advice.
Li Yang, who was standing aside, couldn't stop smiling.
Just as the two were immersed in the joy of communication, Li Yang seemed to remember something, and he leaned close to General Lin's ear mysteriously and whispered: "Uncle Lin, in addition to these machine tools, I have another 'treasure' that I want to show you."
When General Lin heard this, he immediately became interested.
He raised his eyebrows and asked with interest: "Oh? Xiao Li, what are you keeping secret? Take it out and show it to uncle!"
Li Yang smiled knowingly and carefully took out a black box from the cabinet under the workbench.
He solemnly opened the lock and slowly lifted the lid of the box. Inside, he saw a uniquely shaped rifle lying quietly, with a cold metallic luster under the incandescent light.
"Bang!" General Lin's eyes widened instantly.
He stared at the gun, his lips trembling slightly, and he couldn't utter a complete sentence for a long time.
After a long while, he managed to squeeze out a sentence with difficulty: "What...what is this?"
Li Yang was delighted when he saw General Lin's shocked expression.
He slowly took out the gun, held it in front of General Lin with both hands, and said with a smile: "Uncle Lin, look, does this thing look familiar?"
General Lin took the rifle with trembling hands and looked at it intently.
The black muzzle, the streamlined gun body, and the perfectly assembled parts… Although the appearance is similar to the Type 56, it has a more modern feel, just like the crystallization of future technology!
"Isn't this our Type 56? But why does it feel a little different..." General Lin muttered to himself, stroking the barrel of the gun with his fingers, and he felt a little dazed.
Li Yang smiled proudly and began to explain: "Uncle Lin, you have a good eye! This gun is indeed based on the Type 56 and has been fully upgraded.
I referred to some advanced foreign designs and optimized the firing pin, hammer and other bolt structures to make shooting more reliable; at the same time, I also used new materials to replace the handguard, grip and other parts, which greatly reduced the weight..."
Listening to Li Yang's detailed introduction, General Lin felt his scalp tingling and his whole body felt dizzy.
His strong military instinct told him that this unremarkable rifle in front of him was definitely a future artifact!
But how did a young mechanical engineer do it?
