Siheyuan: Building a strong dragon country on the eve of the anti-eagle war

"It's related, but it may not work. Brother Li, we have to give it a try. What do you think?"

Zheng Guo is not the kind of person who likes to talk too much. He learned this after suffering countless social beatings.

"Haha, okay. Since Brother Zheng has spoken, I think it will work.

Gunpowder laboratory? Brother Zheng, I'll help you contact them right away."

Li Yunlong happily went to make a phone call and called the old leader's home directly to report.

The old leader frowned. He received a call about researching to improve the gunpowder, so naturally he didn't believe it.

"I say, Li Yunlong, you are always doing evil things. Your first priority right now is to train Tianlong for me."

"Old Commander, this is natural.

But old chief, my brother Zheng said that the new type of gunpowder is the key to improving Tianlong and even our New Dragon Army.

Old Chief, you know what my brother Zheng is capable of, right? "

The chief on the other end of the phone laughed and said, "It was Xiao Zheng's idea, good, this is more reliable.

In this case, you let Xiao Zheng answer the phone."

The old leader wanted to meet Zheng Guo several times, but due to his busy official duties, there was not much opportunity.

"Brother Xiao Zheng, come and answer the call from my old leader."

Zheng Guo was stunned for some reason. Of course he knew Li Yunlong's old leader.

He is the best among the generals. It is no exaggeration to say that his qualifications and achievements are so high that it is reasonable for him to be promoted one level to the same rank as that general.

But unfortunately, there are only ten spots.

Zheng Guo excitedly took the phone, "Hello, is this the old leader?"

"Hahaha! Comrade Xiao Zheng is me."

There was a hearty laugh from the other end of the phone.

There is no other reason. It is obvious that the name Zheng State is wrong.

But the old leader loved Zheng Guo and felt particularly close to him when he heard Zheng Guo call him that.

"Hello, old chief."

"Hello too, Comrade Xiao Zheng. I have been wanting to see you for a long time. I am very happy to hear your voice today.

By the way, Comrade Xiao Zheng, I heard from Li Yunlong that you are planning to research a new type of gunpowder, right?"

"Old Chief, don't listen to what my elder brother Li says. This is not a new type of gunpowder."

Li Yunlong immediately became angry when he heard this.

"Hey, Brother Zheng, you..."

Zheng Guo blew his fingers at Li Yunlong, signaling for silence, and Li Yunlong pouted angrily.

Zheng Guo continued, "Old Chief, when I was studying in Maoxiong, I borrowed a book about gunpowder, which mentioned the current mainstream gunpowder RDX. Although the book did not have a complete formula, it did mention related content.

So, I was thinking of finding a laboratory to see if I could make RDX.”

Yes, this was the excuse Zheng Guo had thought of early on.

On the other end of the phone, the old leader's expression became serious. He naturally knew the quantity of RDX gunpowder, especially over the years, he had spent a lot of money buying RDX gunpowder from the Russian bear.

And there is indeed no such technology in China at present.

"Comrade Xiao Zheng, do you have the confidence to find out the RDX?"

"Reporting to the old leader, I can only say that I will give it a try. Even if it fails, it will pave the way for future research on RDX."

Hey!

The old leader on the other end of the phone shook his head in disappointment, but then a smile appeared on his face.

Yes, that's right, this is in line with scientific common sense.

"Okay, I agree to your request. I'll help you contact the laboratory and ask Li Yunlong to take you there later."

"Thank you, old chief."

After hanging up the phone, the old leader immediately called the commander-in-chief and the general respectively. When the two heard Zheng Guo's name, they immediately became interested and readily agreed to Zheng Guo's proposal.

Then the old chief called the military logistics chief named Zhou and settled the matter.

Soon Li Yunlong received a notice and took Zheng Guo to a laboratory in the military logistics department outside Beijing.

As soon as the two got off the car, they saw a silver-haired old man in military uniform coming to greet them with several middle-aged men wearing military uniforms under white coats.

"Yunlong, I haven't seen you for many years, you are still so strong.

Yunlong, this must be our young patriot Comrade Zheng Guo."

"Hello, Chief."

Li Yunlong saluted the old man first, and then said, "Report to the commander, this is Comrade Zheng Guo."

Zheng Guo listened to the conversation between the two, especially the way the old man addressed him, it was too scary.

How did he suddenly become a state scholar out of nowhere?

"Hello, little lord, I'm very glad to see you.

The future of the new Dragon Country depends on you, the younger generation."

Zheng Guo frowned and said softly, "Commander, can you please stop calling me a little patriot? It's scary. I don't have that ability now."

"Hahaha!"

The old man immediately laughed and said, “Just because you don’t have it now doesn’t mean you won’t have it in the future.

Xiao Zheng, you have done well enough now. "

"Then, Chief, can you please call me later?"

"Hahaha! Xiao Zheng, let me introduce you. This is Comrade Zhang Feng, the gunpowder expert, and this is Comrade Chen Ran..."

"Hello, Comrade Zhang Feng, Hello, Comrade Chen Ran..."

Zheng Guo greeted and shook hands with several experts.

"Come on, I'll take you to the laboratory.

If you need anything, I will do my best to provide it.”

Soon the group arrived at the gunpowder laboratory.

Among them, flasks, beakers, various glass instruments, microscopes and a variety of electronic instruments are all available.

"Little Guoshi, are you satisfied with the laboratory?"

"Satisfied, very satisfied."

"Well, Comrade Xiao Zheng, from now on, Comrade Zhang Feng and others will assist you in researching new types of gunpowder."

Zheng Guo frowned immediately. He had guessed this result when he greeted the experts just now.

"Commander, can I make a request?"

"Little state scholar, please speak."

"Commander, can I do the experiment alone? I won't bother the experts. If there are conflicts of opinion, it will affect the progress of the experiment."

Chief Zhou stopped smiling and looked at Zhang Feng.

“Sir, I don’t think this is appropriate.

Working with gunpowder was extremely dangerous, and even we professionals feared accidents.

I think we must be present during Comrade Zheng Guo's research to prevent him from causing serious damage to the laboratory."

"Yes, Commander, these experimental equipment are our treasures.

We usually cherish it very much.”

Another gunpowder expert echoed this.

"Stop!"

Chief Zhou's face was clearly filled with displeasure; these two people had completely misunderstood his meaning.

“You guys are only worried about the experimental equipment.

I tell you, the little state scholar is the priceless treasure of our New Dragon Kingdom.

So, you guys stay outside the laboratory and follow the arrangements made by the young scholar.

Xiao Zheng, do you think this is okay?

"Ok, Ok!"

This was something Zheng Guo had not expected, but seeing the experts looking dissatisfied, he thought, well, let them do as they please. This was not his concern.
