Chapter 1143: Gentlemen, listen to the dragon’s roar

Gobi Desert.

Outside the gate of Project 596 base.

After several years, with the joint efforts of officers and soldiers, this huge research base has been built on the desolate Gobi Desert.

No one could have imagined that in the face of lack of water and construction materials, and the fact that the workers had to face high temperatures during the day and low temperatures at night and many other problems, what kind of spirit allowed the workers here to overcome difficulties and build this place from scratch.

Anyone who sees this scene will inevitably sigh with emotion. In such conditions, such harsh conditions, these brave warriors who work silently here, no amount of words can express the respect for them.

Feng Shi was standing by the gate at this time, looking at the completed Project 596 base, pursing his lips tightly and gritting his teeth. He had been rooted here for years and years, and in return he had achieved what he has today.

As the person in charge, he knew clearly how much material and financial resources had been spent to create today's situation.

The scene of holding the wooden stakes and ropes and tamping the foundation with the officers and soldiers seems to be vivid in my mind. I drank saline water and ate tree leaves to survive the most difficult three years.

Finally, like weeds in the Gobi Desert, the seeds that have been sown can finally be harvested.

In the distance, a locomotive emitting blue smoke mixed with black smoke was approaching, but it did not approach Camp 596. Instead, it stopped at the freight station on the other side.

"Telescope~!"

Taking the binoculars handed over by the orderly, Feng Shi looked into the distance and saw chickens, ducks, pigs, sheep, and boxes of fruits, vegetables, and eggs being driven out of the carriage. His eyes were filled with tears.

This was specially approved after he reported to his superiors, and it was transported thousands of miles to the desert.

The preparations for the 596 related experiments are nearing completion, and both scientists and soldiers in the army really need encouragement.

The workload has increased significantly recently, and they need to replenish their nutrition and try their best to make up for what they lost in the past three years through their own abilities.

"The food has finally arrived. Inform the quartermasters of each kitchen team to slaughter all the pigs and sheep sent today to provide nutrition for everyone~!"

After returning the telescope to the orderly, Feng Shi wiped the corners of his eyes. He vaguely remembered that the last time he had such a good meal was the day when Lu Guangda led intellectuals and other experts to the base.

But on that day, there were only canned luncheon meat and other "good stuff" treasured by the troops. Today, it is completely different. There are freshly slaughtered pigs and sheep, as well as living chickens and ducks. It can really be considered a rich feast~!

"Don't wait until the celebration party to eat it~!"

Lu Guangda was wearing a Zhongshan suit, his body was covered in dust and his hair was messy, but no matter how you looked at him, he looked much more handsome than when he wore a suit.

After taking down the telescope, Lu Guangda smiled. He looked much thinner and his face looked a little tired, but he was in good spirits. His eyes were unusually bright, and in his eyes - there was light~!

"As long as the experiment is successful, I will personally ask my superiors to take credit for it and give everyone a good meal. I will ask Beijing to send us Beijing roast duck by plane. One for each class. Damn it, we spent so much money and we still don't have a roast duck~!"

At this time, Feng Shi put his hands on his waist and spoke with great enthusiasm. He had not eaten much good food. The one that impressed him the most was the roast duck he had in Beijing, which was so delicious that it lingered on his lips and teeth.

Maybe in his eyes, roast duck is the best, the best food.

"Then the roast duck restaurant in Beijing will have to close for a few days~!"

Lu Guangda smiled. His thin face looked a little sagging due to malnutrition. When he smiled, wrinkles appeared, making him look much more mature.

"It's too hard, Guangda. They are really suffering. You and I both know how hard it is. Let alone closing the door for a day, what's the harm in closing it for a year as long as atomic weapons can be invented?"

They deserve it! How many years of youth can a person have? No one can tell for sure.

If these scientists had stayed in the city, they could at least have enough to eat, let alone roast duck. However, they resolutely came here to endure the hardships. Not one of them quit, and they all gritted their teeth and persevered.

This perseverance alone deserves Feng Shi's respect and praise.

"We can't favor one over the other. Scientists are human beings too, soldiers are human beings too, they all have to eat the same food~!"

Lu Guangda was not worried that the scientific researchers would not have enough to eat, but he was worried that Feng Shi would leave the meat for the intellectuals as he had done before, and they would have to eat bad food, which was something he did not want to see.

Speaking of hard work, the soldiers have it hard too. They are doing the abacus in the base while the soldiers are on guard duty. They even ate elm leaves before. It is unbearable. Lu Guangda cannot bear to see this scene again~!

"Don't worry, we'll give them enough this time. A train car full of chicken, duck, meat and eggs. Let them eat as much as they want, hehe~!"

The national economy began to pick up, and the supply of materials also changed. The hard times were over, and the food supply returned to normal, and even increased. It was because of this that Feng Shi made this small request, and the higher authorities prepared everything so quickly and sent it over~!

"Let's go, it's time to prepare those things. Miss Qiu's dowry can't be shabby~!"

Buckets of clean water were unloaded from the carriage of the sealed truck. The local water was saline, bitter and astringent. Just the clean water could make the officers and soldiers in the base happy for a while, not to mention that they were slaughtering sheep and pigs today!

As Feng Shi's order was passed down, the soldiers in the kitchen squad were sharpening their knives. The live pigs and sheep sent from the freight station died here before they even opened their eyes to see where they were.

The pig's dying howls echoed throughout the camp, alarming even the scientists who were working on the abacus.

"Hold on the hoof, hold on the hoof~!"

While pigs were being slaughtered here, buckets of clean water were being sent over there. Everyone, who had already had enough of the saline water, ran over with their big teapots in their hands.

"Wait, the water needs to be boiled, drink it~!"

The scene looks a little ridiculous, but it also makes people feel sad. In a place where people have to look forward to even a sip of water, these people have used the abacus in their hands to determine the future destiny of this land.

It was too hard, they were suffering so much. No wonder Feng Shi had to be thick-skinned and ask his superiors for supplies that were of different significance this time.

Having a good meal after a successful experiment is called a celebration. Having a good meal before the experiment begins is called compensation. The two have different meanings.

Even though the people present didn't have so many thoughts in their minds, Feng Shi couldn't do this. It felt like using people forward and not using them backward.

Kill them when they come, and eat them when they are killed. Have a good meal first, and then do the next work. Success or failure will be decided when the time comes. This is the mindset of him as the person in charge.

Test site.

The equipment unloaded from the flatbed train is now towed by vehicles or tanks to the designated location.

These are arranged in the place closest to the explosion center. Based on the principle of waste utilization, the equipment here will record first-hand data.

The quality of the equipment is no longer important. What is important is to monitor the destructive power of the explosion center. Even if the equipment is left here, it will eventually be destroyed.

"Electromagnetic interference may occur at that time. Our radio communications may be temporarily cut off. We can only rely on wired communications~!"

Observing the on-site arrangements, Lu Guangda dusted himself off and gave instructions to Feng Shi beside him.

"Okay, I get it. If that doesn't work, then there will be one person standing under each telephone pole. New soldiers have just been recruited and the old soldiers haven't been released yet, so the number should be enough~!"
