Four hundred and fortieth chapters bet

Von Braun is not only the inventor of the German V-series missile, but also the developer of the launch vehicle that mankind landed on the moon for the first time, and the inventor of the space shuttle.

Qin Chuan was not surprised to see Von Braun. After all, this is a V1 missile, so Braun is certainly indispensable in the R&D team. He was just surprised that Braun is still so young.

After thinking about it, I felt a little fussy. Qin Chuan was also very young when he was a professor in modern times.

"Captain!" Feng Braun and Qin Chuan said as they walked: "I couldn't believe the moment the colonel told me his thoughts... We have been bothered by this problem for so many years, but the solution is so simple. It's a perfect idea to have a pilot come up and try it, Captain!"

Colonel Conrad interrupted, "Professor, that's not what you said when you first heard this suggestion!"

As he said that, Colonel Conrad approached Qin Chuan and asked, "Do you want to know what the professor said at that moment?"

"What did you say?"

Von Braun began to beg for mercy: "Please, Colonel..."

But Conrad ignored Von Braun's begging eyes and continued, "The professor got angry, yes. He yelled 'Fuck, what have we been doing in the past few years!', and then he smashed the phone!"

Conrad laughed as he said that.

Von Braun spread his hands awkwardly: "Forgive me, Captain! You know, it is difficult to invent something that does not exist in this world. Sometimes, although it is very simple, it is important to be able to imagine it, just like the egg erected by Columbus!"

This is a story about creativity. Some people say that Columbus discovered the New World is nothing. As long as he goes to sea, anyone can find that land.

Columbus asked with an egg, "Can you erect this egg?"

Of course, no one can do this.

Columbus picked up the egg and smashed it on the table, and said to everyone, "Look, this is nothing great, you can do it, but the point is... I'm the first one!"

"Professor!" Conrad said: "I agree completely with this, but I feel that... it doesn't seem difficult for the captain to do this. He always has unexpected but practical ideas! The advice about the 'target machine' is just one of them!"

"I totally believe this!" Feng Braun shook Qin Chuan's hand again and said, "So, we believe that our future cooperation will be very pleasant!"

Qin Chuan couldn't help but smile awkwardly. The idea of ​​using pilots to correct data was actually Feng Braun's idea, and Qin Chuan just advanced it two years ago.

The researchers started working immediately as soon as they arrived at the destination.

They chose a place to build a steel frame... The steel frames were transported in sections by truck, and then spliced ​​and welded together.

Its length surprised Qin Chuan, which was 48 meters in total, and after getting it, it looked like a cannon that was diagonally upward.

Then the researchers installed a piston groove on the launch frame, and installed a piston similar to a dumbbell in the piston groove, and conducted sliding tests on it.

"This is the launcher!" Colonel Conrad said: "Because our equipment is positioned as a cheap equipment that can be produced in large quantities, you know, what you need most on the battlefield is this kind of thing that can be produced faster and more quickly. Therefore, we chose a pulse engine for the "target machine". It is cheap but also has the disadvantage of insufficient thrust, so we must eject the "target machine" out, just like a slingshot. When the "target machine" flies into the air, the thrust of the pulse engine is enough for it to fly!"

Qin Chuan nodded to express his understanding.

In fact, he had known this before, but when the real launcher was placed in front of him, he was still a little shocked... It is hard to imagine that modern missiles and steam catapults evolved in this way, simple, primitive, but useful.

The researchers worked until night. Qin Chuan originally thought they should have a rest until night, but that was not the case... After dark, they changed a group of people to continue working.

"We can't waste any time!" Braun, who was wearing a hard hat on his head and a little dark on his face, explained while eating bread and gnawing on his potatoes: "Because any time we have won may change the outcome of the war!"

Qin Chuan was stunned when he heard this. He couldn't believe that this was said from Feng Braun.

The reason why Von Braun was able to become a rocket expert after the war sent humans to the moon was because he found an opportunity to surrender to the United States at the end of the war.

However, this is understandable to the Europeans... Choosing to surrender is not a shameful thing for them when they are unable to change the outcome of the war. This is very different from the concept of "it is better to break the jade than to make a complete one" in the Asian Confucian cultural circle.

"Can we shorten the launch rack?" Qin Chuan opened a can of beef and handed it to Von Braun.

"Thank you, Captain!" Von Braun scooped a spoonful of beef minced with a spoonful of beef minced, filling his mouth with his head, nodding his head and raising a thumb to show that it tastes good, while answering vaguely: "Of course, as long as the catapult thrust is increased, the length of the launcher can be shortened in series. But this is meaningless, isn't it? The cheap equipment we are looking for, which can attack the enemy on a large scale!"

"Yes!" Qin Chuan said: "But you have to know, professor, we use it to fight. Such fixed launchers are easily reconnaissed by enemy reconnaissance planes, and we cannot hide when the enemy comes to bomb. Moreover, when our front line moves forward or backward... we must cut this launcher to take it away, and we must splice it to another place, which requires a lot of manpower and material resources!"

Braun couldn't help but stare at Qin Chuan and said, "What do you mean..."

"I mean, can we get a car launch rack!" Qin Chuan replied: "Short the launch rack to the length of an extended truck, or design a retractable launch rack so that we can maneuver with the launch rack!"

Braun's movements couldn't help but stop. He looked at Qin Chuan, and then at Conrad.

Conrad couldn't help but laugh proudly, and stretched out his hand to Braun: "10 Mark, thank you!"

"What 10 marks!" Qin Chuan asked in confusion.

"I made a bet with the professor!" Conrad explained: "Look at who you two are the ones who erected the next egg!"
