Chapter eight hundred and eighty sixth solid fuel

Later, from the information coming, it was learned that the German army conducted a strict review of the "missile" troops in the incident of the "missile" bombing of the warehouse...

But of course, I can't find out anything. There is no positioning and tracking system in this era, especially the uncontrollable missiles of the German army. No one knows whether the "missile" in the warehouse was launched by themselves, and they are not even sure when it was launched.

This incident did not have much impact on the Allies. On the one hand, the Allies were more concerned about the line of defense in front of them rather than an "accident" far away in Rome. On the other hand, Germany would not regard such a scandal as news, so almost no one in the Allies knew that there was still such a thing.

If anyone knows it, it is that when the "missile" was launched shortly after it passed over the defense line, several US soldiers noticed the "missile" flying at high speed, but they just thought it was an aircraft... As an aircraft, the "missile" is a little smaller in size, but because of its low altitude, it actually looks quite large, so it is really difficult to judge whether it is an aircraft or a missile.

So no one took it seriously.

This is what Zhang Chi wants... At least for now, Zhang Chi believes that the Expeditionary Force should keep a low profile. You should know that Britain, the United States, and even France are typical industrial powers. Their industrial strength has accumulated a large number of talent reserves after years of accumulation, which is not comparable to that of the newly emerging Expeditionary Force.

What Zhang Chi can do is to use his knowledge as much as possible to make the expeditionary army go faster and gain advantages in certain aspects as much as possible.

Of course, weapons and equipment will ultimately play a role in the battlefield and be placed in front of the world. It will always hide its sluggishness and cannot reflect its value. In order to know its shortcomings, some countries still sell the newly developed equipment to other countries...such as stinger missiles, etc., so that they can use others as guinea pigs to continuously improve this equipment, and then install their own troops.

However, even if you want to put it in front of the world, you have to wait until you push your equipment to the next generation before talking about it, so that you can always maintain a leading advantage in technology.

"So, what we have to do is to let Caesar combine the advantages of both missiles!" Basil said at the summary meeting: "This can greatly reduce the amount of work we can launch and track missiles!"

"This is not too difficult!" Liu Zhenguo said: "In fact, we just need to keep the 'Caesar' flight stable!"

"But, how can we know if it is deviating from the direction?"

“In fact, even if we operate it artificially, it is difficult to ensure that it does not deviate from the direction, because most of the terrain we see on the display is undeniable and identifiable terrain!”

“But it can at least reduce a lot of risk of deviating from the direction!”

...

Just like all academic discussions, the scientists in the conference room quickly started a heated discussion.

Zhang Chi looked at the group of experts who were fighting each other without saying a word. He was very pleased to see several Chinese intellectuals, such as Liu Zhenguo, also participated in it, which at least proved that they had become part of this team and integrated into it.

"General!" Seeing the struggle, Basil asked Zhang Chi: "What do you think? What else do you think there is to improve 'Caesar'?"

"What needs improvement?" Zhang Chi replied: "I'm worried that I can't finish talking about it all day!"

The scientists were stunned when they heard this, because as they said before, they were very satisfied with this "missile". Its guidance method can be said to be the first of its era, and the actual test was also very successful, but it seemed that it was not worth mentioning in Zhang Chi's eyes.

Basil was not surprised by this because he was already used to the "surprise" given to him by this Chinese general.

Sometimes Basil also finds it strange. Although Zhang Chi does not know the relevant professional knowledge, he seems to know everything... More importantly, Zhang Chi's opinions are very creative and practical.

Basil believes that this is the most important thing, because an excellent scientist does not depend on whether he has professional knowledge, but on whether he can propose things that others did not expect or did not expect. This is invention and creation.

"First of all, control!" Zhang Chi said: "You must know that we want this thing for combat. We cannot use two pilots to control this thing, even one pilot, because the battlefield is in urgent need of pilots... If one day I want to launch a hundred such missiles, would it be necessary to have a hundred pilots?"

Basil couldn't help but nodded. This is the criterion on the battlefield. The simpler the control of any weapon and equipment, the better. It has a lot to do with whether it can play its expected role on the battlefield.

"This is not difficult to solve!" said Basil. "We can train a group of operators in a targeted manner!"

"The second is the engine..."

"Engine?" said Basil. "General, I don't think there is anything wrong with the engine. Although it's rough, the 'missile' is a one-time weapon. It's enough that we only require that it won't go wrong for dozens of minutes of flight!"

Of course, what Basil said makes sense, because then it will explode into pieces with the "missile".

"But it needs nearly an hour of refueling before launch!" Zhang Chi said: "And the fuel is still very unstable. The 'missile' will explode due to an accident when flying to the target at any time! You must know that we are going to put it into the battlefield, a rapidly changing battlefield. In some cases, we do have a lot of preparation time, so there will be no problem with this 'missile', but sometimes we need to use it immediately, and we will be launched at any time in combat readiness for a long time, so we don't have an hour of refueling!"

"But... what should we do?" someone asked: "Will use other fuel?"

"Of course!" Zhang Chi replied: "You can even consider other forms of fuel, such as solid fuel!"

"Solid fuel?" Basil was shocked when he heard this. This was a day-to-day conversation for them.

"Why can't it work?" Zhang Chi replied: "The rocket that the Chinese invented more than a thousand years ago was to use burning gunpowder to fly. The same is true... What you have to do is find a solid powder to burn in the combustion chamber and then advance the 'missile' to fly!"
