Siheyuan: Taking over the steel mill

Chapter 97: Almost an irresistible target

"Yes, there was such a time. Let's work harder!"

Colonel Kada's men also began to imitate them and assemble other crawler tractors. In just a few minutes, one-third of them were assembled.

Although these novices were military personnel, they quickly mastered the skills of assembling crawler tractors because the workload was not heavy.

Several technicians walked towards a partially assembled tractor, determined to convert it into Colonel Ka's vehicle.

A man nimbly climbed up onto the newly installed metal shell, holding a bottle of gold spray paint and wearing a protective mask.

Soon, the efforts of several people made the whole tractor covered with gold. The gold-plated surface shone brightly in the sunlight.

When Colonel Ka saw that his tractor was so special, his eyes lit up and he walked forward quickly.

“This TV is really nice, I am very satisfied.”

Without Su Chen's reminder, he blurted out "**".

As a wealthy man in Heilongjiang, he obviously has a special liking for gold. When he saw his new car had been spray-painted with shiny gold, he immediately decided to make it his new mobile throne.

"I want to test drive it."

Then, he gestured to the rest of the staff to stand aside. Everyone gathered around and watched Colonel Ka's every move.

Colonel Ka sat in the cockpit and the engine started with a rumbling sound.

Colonel Ka cheered, grasped the joystick to start the tractor, and moved forward with the roar of the machinery.

He drove the car skillfully inside, and the simple golden car ran wildly across the vast plains of Libya.

At the same time he roared with excitement.

He thinks this test drive experience is better than the last one.

Soon, this golden ** became his new love.

Rushing back and forth in the camp.

Colonel Ka's voice penetrated the camp, causing the soldiers to stop and stare at the golden monster.

Most of the ordinary soldiers were unaware that these tractors were arriving today, so they were a little surprised to see the sudden appearance of the big guys.

If it weren't for Colonel Ka's voice coming from inside, the Libyan soldiers would have almost shot at this strange thing.

Colonel Ka didn't care about the vigilant eyes around him. He stopped shooting, sat in the gunner's seat, and controlled the artillery system to fire a bomb.

As clouds of black smoke rose, the shells shot straight out and landed outside the military camp.

The ground shook. It was obvious that the cannon was very powerful, and Colonel Ka's specially made golden decoration was not damaged by the shock.

After the experiment was successful, Colonel Ka's excitement was beyond words.

Previously, he had thought that this crawler tractor might not be able to be equipped with a too powerful artillery system, but this test proved that the quality of the tractors produced by Suchen far exceeded his expectations.

Nodding with satisfaction, Colonel Ka stopped dressing in gold.

The technical team worked non-stop, and even while Colonel Kada was test driving the tractor around, they were guiding their subordinates in assembling the remaining tractors.

The brand new tractors were taken out of the containers one by one.

They were fixed so tightly that Colonel Ka's men could hardly dismantle them without the guidance of technicians.

A total of 299 such tractors appeared in the military camp. This was the first time that many Libyan soldiers had seen such a large-scale steel monster.

Because of the backward industrial environment, they had rarely seen tractors or even ordinary motorcycles, so they gathered around this huge machine with curiosity to look at it.

The technicians did not urge them, but instead allowed the soldiers to adapt to the unfamiliar mechanical equipment.

Almost every soldier in the barracks was attracted by this crawler tractor.

After everyone got used to the scene, the technicians began to guide the soldiers to complete the assembly of the tractor.

Although the 299 tractors had a simple structure and few parts, the soldiers still found it difficult to complete the task in the absence of technical guidance.

Each technician led a dozen soldiers to quickly carry out the assembly work. When a technician taught a group of people, this group of people who had learned the assembly technology would teach others.

Through the method of spreading the word from ten to a hundred, soon most of the soldiers learned how to operate the tractor.

Originally, the technical team was worried that it would be difficult to complete the work of these 300 tractors without sufficient manpower assistance.

Fortunately, Colonel Ka had many subordinates and successfully completed the assembly under the guidance of key members.

Today, these 300 ** tractors are lined up in a spectacular row in the open space of the military camp, in an orderly manner.

The technical backbones are very good at teaching skills, which is also the result of special screening by the assistants of the tractor factory before sending them out. Because in the tractor factory, these technicians are often responsible for guiding others' work and have rich experience in teaching how to assemble crawler tractors.

Combining these experienced technicians with diligent learners made assembling the tractors much easier. When Colonel Ka ordered to stop and observe, the scene in front of him was 300 tractors that had been lined up and waiting for him.

Colonel Ka, who originally wanted to get off the car to rest for a while, was extremely excited when he saw such a neat array.

He immediately gave up the idea of ​​getting off the train, remained on his gilded train, and shouted directly through the loudspeaker on the train: "Listen to my command, soldiers! Get on board!"

Following Colonel Ka's words, the non-commissioned officers who had been waiting for a long time entered the cabs of the trucks one after another, and four drivers in training were placed in each of the 299 trucks. The arrangement of these four people was carried out completely according to the plan - after receiving the news from the capital, he immediately organized a new team of soldiers to train them how to operate the new trucks equipped to the troops.

Colonel Ka led his three entourage members into the cockpit of the 2011 convoy. These confidants were the most trusted people. Although it was their first time seeing the real thing and operating this 2011-style armored vehicle, these personnel still operated it with the relevant knowledge provided by Colonel Ka. The excitement of facing the actual equipment for the first time was hard to suppress, even though it was actually a tractor converted into a 2011 convoy.

Colonel Ka stood on the golden chariot, his white military uniform was very eye-catching, and all the soldiers could easily find the leader. He looked at the group constructed by the tractor and felt very satisfied.

He also had a golden armored tractor that was unique among the armored tractor fleet. Driving such a conspicuous armored tractor made Colonel Ka proud. He waved his hand and gave the order: "Start the engine!"

As the order fell, a large-scale military equipment with tractor sounds started up, and the sound was like thunder. Under Su Chen's guidance, the crawler tractors produced by the employees completely ignored environmental considerations; his first condition was strong power. Therefore, these crawler tractors naturally used traditional diesel engines, which would emit thick black smoke when they started. Moreover, because any measures to purify the black smoke would increase the difficulty of the process and assembly, no related equipment was used in these **.

Therefore, Su Chen designed all the exhaust systems to be extremely simple when he first designed them. This simplified solution made the installation work much easier, but the effect when they were started was quite scary.

When the workers at the tractor factory started the crawler tractor for the first time, they were shocked by the billowing black smoke. In comparison, traditional tractors are much more docile in terms of black smoke emissions. In the absence of external armor protection, the black smoke produced by the crawler tractor in the tractor factory poured directly into the cockpit, causing the workers who were testing the tractor to quickly give up and leave the driving seat.

However, the crawler tractors sent to Libya this time were equipped with special steel plates. These reinforced steel plates not only improved the overall protection capability, but also effectively blocked the external black smoke from entering the cockpit and prevented the staff from smelling the pungent smell of diesel.

Based on such settings and requirements, Su Chen selectively ignored the issue of black smoke handling.

A crawler tractor can spray out a black cloud that is eye-catching when it starts, and when as many as 300 of them start roaring at the same time, it seems to swallow up half of the military camp in an inky haze.

Like a group of monster machines from the dark world, although these crawler tractors were produced by ordinary agricultural machinery manufacturers, neither the manufacturer's technicians nor Colonel Ka's men had ever witnessed such a scene, and they squeezed every bit of power at all costs.

In the eyes of the technicians, the crawler tractor reached an unprecedented theoretical maximum speed, and after making a huge rumbling sound, it rushed towards the unknown distance. This scene frightened the surrounding birds and they flew away in panic.

The earth was shaking and trembling, the air was filled with the acrid smell of burning diesel, and the blue sky was now covered with dark haze. These grotesque, towed weapons in formation were rushing forward like the return of the devil.

As the machinery roared, the creatures around sensed danger and fled in all directions. The screams that came one after another added a mysterious and terrifying atmosphere.

After a brief pause, the technicians quickly recovered and began to work.

Even if the assembly is successful it does not mean that all the work is completed, they need to continue to collect experimental information on this batch of crawler tractor modifications**.

Not only will the data collected be used to make the first 300 crawler tractors in the Cadiz team perform better, but it will also be sent back to the factory to further optimize future crawler tractor models.

These technicians all came from the armored vehicle factory. After quickly adapting to this unusual crawler tractor model, they began to quickly measure and obtain a series of important data.

According to preliminary estimates, if these machines appear on the front line, they will be almost powerless targets for their own traditional mechanized army.

At first glance, the lineup of these crawler tractors surprised them a little, but after actual observation, they found that the speed of the Longhong II tractor was not fast, at most similar to that of a motorcycle. But this was after all compared with the army in their own country; if it was a small country in West Asia, it would be a crushing level.

Because the small countries in West Asia lack even equipment like tractors, not to mention better armored vehicles. Moreover, the cost of the Longhong II tractor designed by Su Chen is very low, which alone can be said to be unrivaled. From the chassis to the armor and fire control system, the overall unit price is only about 100,000 US dollars. On the surface, this cost seems not small, but in comparison, if similar equipment is imported from abroad, the price will often exceed 300,000 or 400,000 US dollars.

In addition, this type of equipment is not only expensive, but also very complicated to operate, and soldiers need special training to operate it. Therefore, once Su Chen manufactures tens of thousands of such simple equipment in batches, it will be enough to form a powerful offensive force and can easily sweep across neighboring countries.
