The Red Era, the Opening University Speech

Chapter 449 All for the Country
I came here with great difficulty, not just to educate these three people.

One of them is to keep abreast of their physical condition.

The second is to check the research status of 3-ton die forging hydraulic press, 12500-ton horizontal extruder and steel metallurgical database.

After all, it is one of nine large-scale complete sets of equipment.

The difficulty of research and development is still quite large.

It is still unknown whether the research can be carried out smoothly based solely on the information he provided.

Facing Li Mu's question.

The first person to speak was Wang Zhengan, saying:

"So far, our development of the 12500-ton horizontal extruder has been relatively smooth."

"The frame, main working cylinder, motion system and guide system have entered the critical stage, and the overall structure can almost be manufactured."

"But we still need more time to process the perforation system..."

He slowly explained the situation.

Of course, in addition to the achievements, there are definitely many problems encountered.

However, all these were successfully resolved with just one sentence: "Thanks to everyone's efforts."

But others don't know.

How could Li Mu not be aware of the hardships involved?

After all, the deep dark circles under the other person's eyes and the heavy feeling of fatigue on his face were enough to explain everything.

He sighed deeply in his heart, but smiled and encouraged:
"Professor Wang, you did a great job."

Now, there is no need to continue to delve into this research without sleep or food.

Just tell Lin Zhen when he is about to leave.

But thinking that I did the same thing last time - maybe I should report this situation to Qin Yun.

While thinking about it, he let Lin Su'an and Yang Tianxing continue.

After a brief understanding of the situation.

He also provided targeted guidance for subsequent research.

For example, the design ideas of key components such as the 12500-ton perforating cylinder, perforating plunger and perforating tension rod, the hydraulic cylinder and control system of the 3w-ton die forging hydraulic press, etc.

……

An hour and a half later.

At Guan Jianmin's reminder.

Li Mu, who was immersed in answering questions for Wang Zhengan and the other two, realized that the time was up.

He stood up and said:

"That's all for today. I hope to see more of your research results next time I come."

"Of course, there is a premise."

"That means you have to be in high spirits, otherwise this will be the last time."

His tone was rarely serious.

"Don't worry, Consultant Li. We understand!" Wang Zhengan and the other two said in unison.

Seeing this, Li Mu nodded slightly, turned and walked out of the stationmaster's office.

Three people followed closely behind.

Lin Zhen hurriedly followed.

Li Mu whispered a few more instructions to him before boarding the departing train.

……

On the platform.

Watching Li Mu leaving on the train, Lin Zhen and the other three stood there for a long time, without coming to their senses.

Wang Zhengan, Lin Suan and Yang Tianxing were reluctant to leave.

As for Lin Zhen.

It was because of what Li Mu had just said, that if he couldn't control himself anymore, he would report it to Qin Yun.

Although the tone sounded like a joke.

But he also knew that if he continued to allow the three people to "do whatever they wanted", he would never be able to get closer to Li Mu in the future.

Think of this.

Lin Zhen looked at Wang Zhengan and the other two and said:
"Okay, Consultant Li has left."

"You are on holiday now, go home or go back to the dormitory to rest."

"I'll ask my driver to take you there faster."

After saying this, he waved to his secretary.

"Wait, leader, at least let us write down what Consultant Li just explained. What if we forget it?" Wang Zhengan said hurriedly.

Hearing this, Lin Zhen couldn't help but hesitate.

After all, what Li Mu said must be quite important.

But just then.

Yang Tianxing on the side suddenly said: "It's okay, professors, I have just written it down for you."

As he spoke, he pulled out a notebook from his pocket.

He is young after all.

Even though they had studied all night for many days, in terms of condition, they were still far inferior to him.

"Professors, do you have anything else to say?" Lin Zhen looked at his notebook and said with a smile.

Wang Zhengan, Lin Suan: "..."

……

At nightfall.

Kyoto, train station.

As the special train slowly stopped.

Guo Mo, who had been waiting there, immediately stepped forward.

Seeing him, Li Mu thought he had figured out something, and was startled. He quickly said:
"President Guo, why are you here?"

"Don't worry, all aspects of the research are going smoothly. It's the superiors who want to meet you." Guo Mo said.

Hear the news.

Li Mu was slightly surprised and said:

"See me, do you know why?"

"If you don't know, then it's even less likely that I would know. But the news was told to me by leader Qin Yun." Guo Mo thought for a moment and said.

He was actually puzzled too.

However, he quickly followed the order and came over to bring the person over.

Li Mu nodded slightly, already having some guesses in his mind, and said:

"Okay, let's go."

He originally planned to go to the Xuanwu-1 main battle heavy tank to check the situation, and then rush to the Aviation Academy overnight.

Now it seems that the plan is going to fail.

……

Immediately afterwards, Li Mu followed Guo Mo into the car and headed for the courtyard.

On the way, the latter inevitably mentioned his trip to the Baltic Shipyard.

Li Mu did not hide this and told everyone about the sound-absorbing tiles and paint.

By the way, he also mentioned the anti-submarine radar and asked the other party to inform the Radar Research Institute. He would send some information over the day after tomorrow.

Hearing this, Guo Mo couldn't help but interrupt:

"You just came back, can you go back to work without taking a two-day break?"

He knew Li Mu's personality very well and he could not sit still at all.

So it was not surprising that a trip to the Baltic Shipyard resulted in more research projects.

Of course, this is based on the premise that we don’t know about the “submarine for aircraft carrier” plan.

"It's okay. After I'm done with these busy days, I'll have a good rest." Li Mu waved his hand.

Went to Binh Thanh for a week.

No matter what, he has to check the progress of each research project first.

Hearing this, Guo Mo said:
"I have no objection to you coming back to check on the progress and status of each research project."

"But don't be careless about how many days it will take."

"If it takes too long, you must rest first, otherwise don't blame me for complaining to the leaders later."

After he finished speaking, he looked at the vermilion buildings that were getting closer and closer.

Seeing this, Li Mu was quite helpless.

I had just taught Wang Zhengan and the other two a lesson at noon, but I didn't expect that the situation has changed and it's my turn now.

And it was as if he was strangling the lives of several of them.

Guo Mo also accurately found his weakness.

——Would he bother his superiors for such a small matter?
"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you. But I can't say for sure how many days it will take, but it will definitely not exceed 5 days." Li Mu said quickly.

Guo Mo nodded with satisfaction and said, "That's right!"

……

Just as the two of them were talking.

The car finally approached the courtyard.

Before it even stopped.

Li Mu saw three people walking out of the yard.

The one leading the group was the amiable superior leader who was always wearing the same grey Zhongshan suit.

On his left is Qin Yun.

On the right is Xiao Ruilin, the South China Sea naval commander.

"Haha, our hero is here!" The superior leader walked forward and personally opened the car door for Li Mu, with a visible smile on his face.

If this scene were seen by outsiders.

I'm afraid everyone will be shocked.

It’s such a great honor to have the superior leader open the door personally!

Li Mu was a little flattered for a moment, and got out of the car quickly, saying:
"Leader, you are too kind. This is what I should do!"

"Come on, let's go inside and talk. You haven't eaten yet. I've prepared some braised pork for you." The superior patted Li Mu's shoulder and said.

While talking.

He took Li Mu's hand affectionately and walked into the yard.

Qin Yun and Guo Mo, who were standing by, were not surprised by this.

However, Xiao Ruilin was very shocked.

He thought he had already elevated his perception of Li Mu's status sufficiently in his mind.

But now it seems that it is still too underestimated!

……

In front of the stone table in the yard.

After the 5 people took their seats one by one.

Soon the logistics staff brought the food up.

That big pot of shiny, greasy braised pork was obviously prepared for Li Mu.

After all, there was no one else present besides him.

I'm afraid no one can make so many things in one meal.

However, Li Mu said:
"Boss, how much did these cost? I'll make up for it. I can't let you spend the money."

He knows it.

The meals of the superior leaders are all paid for out of their own pockets.

Although as a leader, his salary is not low, it is 404.8 yuan.

However, in reality, their expenses often exceed their income, and their monthly salary is barely enough to fill their stomachs.

"What are you talking about? It's not right to invite guests to dinner and ask them to pay." The superior said unhappily.

Hearing this, Li Mu hurriedly said:
"That's not what I meant. I'm just afraid of you, afraid of you..."

He didn't know how to say it for a moment.

After all, the superior leader can't even afford braised pork, which sounds very strange.

But this is the reality.

"Are you worried that I won't have food to eat? Don't worry, thanks to you, our grain production has increased a lot, and no one will go hungry anymore." The superior leader said with a smile.

If it were in the past, inviting Li Mu to dinner might mean that you would have to tighten your belt.

But now, grain production has increased and the supply is not so tight.

It may not be possible to eat meat every meal, but it is not difficult to get full.

Qin Yun, who was standing by, couldn't help but sigh and said:
"Yes, the leader is right. Do you know how much our grain production has increased this year?"

"More than 6000 tons!"

"Compared to the production in 62, it has increased by about 40%, almost half!"

Although he is in charge of technology.

But I still understand the people's livelihood situation.

In the 60s.

The average per capita grain consumption in urban and rural areas across the country was 329 kilograms, including 368 kilograms for urban residents and 322 kilograms for the agricultural population.

Of course, this standard can only ensure that people do not starve to death.

It is indeed extremely difficult to eat enough.

Based on the historical population of 6.73 million.

About 11000 million tons of grain are needed to meet this standard.

The production increased by more than 6000w tons.

Although it still can't feed everyone.

But it is more than enough to add an extra bowl of rice to every Xia citizen's table.

……

Facing the praise from superiors and Qin Yun.

Li Mu felt a little ashamed.

Recently he has been busy with various military research and has somewhat neglected agriculture.

He thought for a while and said:

"In fact, this only slightly alleviates the problem of food shortage." "We want to solve it fundamentally."

"We still have to start with seeds, cultivate high-quality seeds and increase per-acre yield."

Hear this.

The superior leader asked curiously:
"Do you have an idea now?"

Qin Yun, Guo Mo and Xiao Ruilin on the side also looked at Li Mu.

"There are some, but crop cultivation takes a lot of time, so I have only been communicating with a professor from Southwest Agricultural College..." said Li Mu.

He told Lin Tunan about the letter writing he had with her.

to be frank.

For so long there has been no result.

He still has some "opinions".

"So that's how it is. You should have told me earlier. Such an important matter can be developed as a national key project!" said the superior leader.

Food is the foundation of a country.

If it can increase again, it will undoubtedly be a great thing for Xia State, a country with a large population, and it can solve many problems.

Qin Yun and Guo Mo on the side also said:
"That's right. It doesn't matter if you don't have time. Just go and give me some guidance whenever you have time."

Agricultural projects are actually very unstable.

It also takes a long time and is costly, so generally everyone does their own research.

Without significant results, the country will not invest too many resources.

But if it is Li Mu’s idea, then it is a different matter.

……

Everyone talked a little.

It was decided to make pearl dwarf rice a national key agricultural research project.

Subsequently.

While eating.

The superiors also talked about the "submarine for aircraft carrier plan" and the "deep sea plan".

These two plans.

It can be said that they all originated from Li Mu.

And take his ideas as the basis.

If the final experiment is not successful, then it is all nonsense.

However, there was only Xiao Ruilin present who didn't quite understand the situation.

No one had any doubt as to whether Li Mu could succeed.

On the contrary, I think, if it doesn’t work.

It’s definitely not Li Mu’s fault, but the failure to execute the plan properly.

Listen, listen.

Li Mu couldn't help but said:

"Leader, I think exchanging a submarine for an aircraft carrier is still too extreme. We still need to exercise utmost restraint."

He really didn't want any soldiers to sacrifice because of him.

"I know what you're thinking. Don't worry, a war won't break out easily. What the country needs more now is development." The superior leader said with a smile.

This kind of military thing.

That is Li Mu.

If any other scientist were to speak, I'm afraid he wouldn't be qualified to speak.

"That's good, and please rest assured that I will complete all the necessary research as soon as possible!" Li Mu promised.

Facing the threat from Emperor M and Big Brother.

Although Xia State can remain restrained.

But he also didn't want to see them just keep saying "warning..." and "condemning..."

The superior leader nodded with a smile and said:

"I believe you, but you must always pay attention to your physical condition. If you have any problems, rest immediately."

"Tanks, airplanes, and submarines. You're working on all three, and you're also researching other areas."

"You have done so much, which is difficult for an ordinary person to do. It must have consumed a lot of your energy, so you must take good care of yourself no matter what."

After he finished speaking, he patted Li Mu's shoulder heavily, his eyes full of expectation.

His hope is for the country to be strong.

But he didn't want to see Li Mu sacrifice himself for this.

Given his age and ability, there are still many, many things he can do in the future.

"Thank you for your concern, leader. I'll remember it!" Li Mu nodded heavily.

But that's what I said.

He is aware of his own physical condition.

Although the appetite does not continue to grow rapidly after reaching a certain level.

But I can still feel that my physical and mental strength are slowly improving.

Him now.

Even if he didn't reach the level of Master Qian Wu.

At least it can be called a genius statement.

In later times, it would be easy to get 740 points in the college entrance examination.

at this time.

Qin Yun on the side interrupted:
"By the way, Li Mu, do you want to be a consultant to the Equipment Committee in the future? That would also make your position more legitimate."

After he finished speaking.

Guo Mo was slightly startled.

Qin Yun's words were definitely not a spur-of-the-moment decision, but were made after comprehensive consideration of the above factors.

But when he thought that he was just a consultant, he felt relieved.

At least I'm still in the Chinese Academy of Sciences, so it doesn't matter.

"Of course no problem." Li Mu nodded slightly and said.

It's just one more title, it makes no difference to him.

While Guo Mo was here, he said:
"By the way, I had a new idea on my way back, and I need your cooperation, President Guo."

Hear this.

Everyone present couldn't help but brighten their eyes.

Without waiting for Guo Mo to answer.

The superior leader said:

"What's your idea? Don't worry, no matter what you need, we will fully cooperate!"

With Li Mu’s current status.

Even if we have to devote all the country's resources to research something, they will probably just nod their heads.

Li Mu said:
"It's a new type of weapon. I call it a pulse weapon."

"Didn't I propose the model of information warfare? It is the most effective means of attack and the most effective means of counterattack."

"And in theory, it can also be combined with the big mushroom to exert unexpected power..."

He briefly introduced the effects of pulse weapons.

After listening to his story.

There were four people present, all of them fell into a long state of shock and silence.

Even though they had long been accustomed to Li Mu coming up with new ideas from time to time.

I could not have expected it to be such a powerful thing.

Atomic EMP bomb, paralyzing electronic equipment on a large scale?
If this happens to Emperor M and Big Brother, I'm afraid the whole world will fall into silence.

Qin Feng swallowed and asked:

"Li Mu, how long will it take to make this pulse weapon you mentioned?"

"At present, we can only develop miniaturized pulse weapons. It will take at least 10 years to develop an atomic EMP bomb," said Li Mu.

This time is his most conservative estimate.

After all, Xiaguo’s technology in this area cannot be said to be completely clean; it can only be said to be non-existent.

You can imagine how difficult it is to make it.

"Time is not a problem, let's do it!" said the superior leader with a wave of his hand.

Not to mention 10 years, even 20 or 30 years.

With this atomic energy EMP bomb, it is also a huge killing weapon for Xia State.

Its importance is not even inferior to that of the giant mushroom.

……

The night is getting darker.

After Li Mu finished his meal.

Didn't leave either.

Instead, he continued to go to the superior's study with everyone and talked about pulse weapons.

Guo Mo left first.

After all, in order to prepare for the research, he needs to gather experts and professors to participate in the research as soon as possible.

We may even set up a special research unit to handle this matter.

……

In the study.

Li Mu first briefly explained the strategic value of pulse weapons.

However, the topic changed and turned to the five-dimensional battlefield of sea, land, air, space and electricity.

As for the current situation.

In the areas of sea, land, air and electricity, the Xia Kingdom has some trump cards that it is currently studying.

However, there are still some shortcomings in heaven.

Of course, outer space combat has not been widely used even in later generations.

Emperor M did propose the space-based kinetic weapon called the Rod of God.

It is said that using multiple 100 kg tungsten rods and using gravity to make them fall freely can produce huge destructive power, even comparable to large mushrooms.

However, it was confirmed by Xia Guo that at most it could only create a three-meter-wide pit.

It sounds like a joke.

However, we have to admit that Xia State has shortcomings in this regard.

After all, until a long period of time in later generations, they were copying Emperor M's homework.

Emperor M said what he had.

They have to create something accordingly.

Although the result is good, it is inevitable that people will want to curse in the end.

Of course, in the end, Xia Kingdom also taught Emperor M a lesson. Not only did he not dare to throw smoke bombs again, he even didn't dare to shoot science fiction films.

I'm just afraid that they will really make it.

"In the outer space battlefield, we can focus on researching space-based laser weapons and anti-satellite weapons..." Li Mu explained his ideas.

Since we want to strengthen national defense.

Then just have a trump card in the five-dimensional battlefield of sea, land, air, space and electricity.

As long as this system is perfected.

Not saying anything can ensure peace forever.

For at least thirty years, Emperor M and Big Brother will have to scratch their heads and chase after them.

Of course, space-based weapons also include space-based kinetic weapons.

But never mind this.

Although in theory, metal rods made of metals such as tungsten, titanium and uranium.

The Rod of God is the best example of failure.

Something with a diameter of 30 centimeters, a length of 6.1 meters, and a weight of 9 tons hits the target at a speed of 3.9 kilometers per hour.

It definitely has power.

But in terms of pure physical attack, I'm afraid it's not as good as throwing a D bullet.

Listening to Li Mu’s introduction.

Everyone in the room was shocked again.

Qin Feng sighed again and again, saying:

"I think you shouldn't be the advisor of the Equipment Committee. You should be the leader directly!"

His words caused Xiao Ruilin beside him to nod repeatedly.

Electricity from land, sea, air and space.

This kind of forward-looking strategic vision would deserve a thumbs-up from not only him but also his superiors.

"Forget about being a leader. Just be a consultant. Otherwise, there will be too many chores to deal with." Li Mu said with a smile.

He is still young now.

It is already very good to be able to sit on the post of Director K of the National Science and Technology Commission.

If it goes up further.

Don't mention whether others have any opinions.

He himself was a little uncomfortable with it.

……

Just when Li Mu was discussing the research of pulse weapons and space-based weapons.

Big Brother here.

The National Academy of Sciences, after going through many difficulties.

Finally, we achieved a breakthrough in computers with a computing speed of 100 million times per second.

General Ilyaslav, at the invitation of Dean Djugashvili, came to the scene to observe the final test.

Although the general's attitude towards him was very rude before.

But after seeing the machines in the machine room and Dzhugashvili's tired face.

He still patted the other person on the shoulder and said, "Sorry, it's all for the country."
