Chapter 725 Original 107
In fact, he wanted to do it himself, but after thinking about it, he knew that it was probably impossible, so he had to ask his comrades to do it for him.
The comrades working on 107 were dumbfounded when they heard what he said. Is this even possible?
Seeing his expression, Gao Zhendong smiled and said, "Try it, try it."
Others saw them whispering but didn't take it seriously. It was normal for everyone to have issues to communicate during the performance report.
But what happened next seemed a little unusual to everyone.
After hearing what Gao Zhendong said, the comrade working on Unit 107 ran to the side, found a rocket, and started tinkering with it.
Could it be that Chief Engineer Gao discovered something wrong with the rocket?
But the next operation surprised everyone.
The 107 fire is electrically fired. The firing mechanism once used batteries, and later a hand-cranked generator was used to reduce weight. In short, its main feature is its strong adaptability.
The comrade who was invited over by Gao Zhendong, after the last round, called all the comrades to suspend the next round.
Stop fighting, just watch me pretend... No, watch me perform.
Amidst the puzzled looks of the crowd, he found a mound of dirt and placed the rocket on it. As one of the developers of the 107 rocket, he naturally knew how to aim easily, and everyone saw him gesticulating there.
"What is this going to do?"
"I don't know. Did President Gao find out there was something wrong with the bullet?"
"I don't think so. Looking at his movements, it seems like he is aiming."
"Aim? Are you kidding? There's no directional tube. You can't shoot accurately even if you aim."
"Don't make a fuss, you'll know when you see..."
While everyone was talking, I saw that comrade lead out the firing circuit, and then took out a dry battery from somewhere.
To be honest, it took some effort to find this thing on the scene, but fortunately there is always a shortage of flashlights at the shooting range.
"Do you really want to fight directly?"
"What kind of operation is this? This is not included in the original technical indicators?"
"Can this be accurate?"
"It seems that this is Chief Engineer Gao's request. If he thinks so, there must be some reason for it. Let's take a look."
At this time, the comrades next to the earthen platform were already prepared.
"Prepare...release!"
Following an order, he pressed the wire onto the positive terminal of the dry cell battery.
With a loud bang, the rocket rushed out rapidly with thick smoke and flames. Within a few seconds, a cloud of smoke rose from the white circle in the target area in the distance.
"Hit it! Hit it!!!" No matter how this operation came about, it seems that there is really no problem now. Why bother about it? Let's be happy first.
Some comrades were dumbfounded, while others were cheering with joy.
Especially the comrades from the Land Equipment Bureau, this thing can actually be used like this?
Although this method can only be used for direct shooting, you can tell whether it can hit the target.
The comrades of the garrison who cooperated with the pre-inspection looked at the 107 fire with a look of having found a treasure, this thing really works!
We have strict discipline, but when we fight, we use all kinds of tactics, such as the 75 Supreme Tree, which emerge in an endless stream.
For comrades in the army, this thing is essentially a large-sized rocket launcher. Although its anti-armor capability may be a little lacking, it is better than a rocket launcher in hitting soft targets. After all, this thing is much thicker than a rocket launcher.
"That's amazing! How did you think of doing this?" The comrade from the Land Equipment Bureau ran over and patted the comrade operating 107 on the shoulder. They had worked together for a long time and were very familiar with each other.
The comrade who had just satisfied his desire of "astonishing everyone" put away the dry battery and said with a smile: "It wasn't me, it was Chief Engineer Gao who suggested that I try this. I didn't believe that I could hit the target, but I didn't expect it to be true. Chief Engineer Gao's brain is really amazing!"
Upon hearing this, the comrades around all looked at Gao Zhendong, who felt a little embarrassed by their looks: "Well, when I was on the battlefield before, I thought of every possible way to destroy the enemy. There were no good things back then, but now there are good things, so I can think of more ways."
This style of play was said to have been forced out when the 107 firearm was further lightweight. Although the lightweight 107 firearm was not finally put into service, some of its techniques and skills were retained.
But he can't say that this is the way of playing that you came up with later, so when something goes wrong you can just attribute it to your previous experience.
Although he said it lightly, the comrades around him heard it and remembered it in their hearts, and they immediately stood in awe.
What kind of life did Chief Engineer Gao and his men have on the battlefield? He came up with this slightly crazy style of attack. You know, unlike the 130mm and 180mm rockets, Chief Engineer Gao had never seen the design and real object of the 107mm rocket before. "The reason why it can guarantee basic accuracy by direct shooting is actually very simple. This is a rocket with a turbine engine. The directional tube is only responsible for orientation, but not for accuracy. The accuracy is guaranteed by the turbine engine's spin, so as long as the direction is correct when aiming, it can still achieve a good direct shooting accuracy."
Gao Zhendong's words made them admire him even more.
This admiration is different from the previous one. The previous one was because of Gao Zhendong's experience and quick wit, but now I admire Chief Engineer Gao's solid theoretical foundation. After having a general understanding of the structural design of the rocket, he was able to quickly start from the theory and find new uses and new tactics for the equipment.
Mr. Gao is indeed tall.
But what they never expected was that this style of play was the limit of their imagination for the time being, but it was not Gao Zhendong's limit.
“In fact, if you really can’t find even dry batteries or something, you can knock open the bottom cover and light a fire underneath. I guess it’s not impossible. It’s just that the exact time of launch is hard to grasp, and the accuracy will be further reduced. With this method of ignition, the combustion process and design of the rocket engine may be different. But considering the short distance, it’s actually okay.” Gao Zhendong said with a smile.
Hmm? There are still experts? Gao Zhendong's words made all the comrades dumbfounded.
Burning the buttocks directly? What kind of crazy way of playing is this? Even the most whimsical people would not have thought of such an operation.
But thinking back, it is true. Rocket propellant can be ignited directly, and rockets are not guided ammunition. There is no need to consider other things when igniting, as long as it can be ignited. Moreover, Mr. Gao's inference about combustion and accuracy is also very reasonable.
The comrades from the Land Equipment Bureau looked at the comrades from the Research Institute and said, "Comrades, please do some research on these special tactics after you go back and come up with a systematic way of using them. We can do without them, but we can't live without them. If we don't come up with a tactic when we clearly have the ability, it would be a great disappointment to Chief Engineer Gao."

For them, it doesn't matter if it's not advanced or crude, what matters is whether it works. With these supporting tactics, even a naked bomb can give the enemy a hard time.
Thinking of this, they couldn't help but admire Gao Zhendong. Our comrade Lao Lu is really considerate!
"Chief Engineer Gao, take a look, is there anything else that needs their attention?"
Gao Zhendong shook his head repeatedly: "No, no, I have no other opinions. But if you want to match this special tactic, I do have an additional suggestion. You can make a simple sight ruler, the kind that can be placed on the projectile body. Provide one for a certain amount of ammunition. This will be more convenient for the soldiers on the front line."
"Why not one gun for each bullet?" The comrades from the Land Equipment Bureau were a little confused.
"To save money. If you adopt this method of shooting, it will mostly be sporadic shooting. Just take the ruler back after aiming. In this way, there is no need to change the packaging design of the shells. No matter how small a sparrow is, it is still meat. The more you can save, the better." Gao Zhendong smiled. In fact, if you have a lot of money, one bullet and one ruler are not a bad idea.
When the comrades attending the meeting of the Defense Work Committee heard what he said, they couldn't help laughing in their hearts. Chief Engineer Gao was being stingy again.
Gao Zhendong's series of novel ideas opened the eyes of other comrades attending the meeting.
If those who worked on rockets and the Army Equipment Bureau were already familiar with Gao Zhendong's name and knew that he had profound attainments in rockets, then for many people it was the first time they saw Gao Zhendong take action in this area.
An expert can tell whether something is good or not with just one glance.
"Chief Engineer Gao's consideration is very thorough."
"I think this consideration is okay, but I am still shocked by his idea of using dry batteries to fire naked bombs."
"Honestly, what kind of wars did Chief Engineer Gao fight in the past? He even came up with such an operation as roasting the butt with fire and flicking it."
"Let's not talk about this. We were able to push them to that point because we didn't do our job well back then."
"Well, we didn't do our job well, so we forced them to do this themselves."
"I really hope so. If there were more comrades like him, everything would be much easier..."
"Come a few more, you are dreaming."
"..."
No matter what they thought, the Army Equipment Bureau and the comrades working on 107 were very interested in Gao Zhendong's suggestion. Simply adding a small part could greatly broaden the use scenarios of the rocket, and it would not change or affect the existing design.
In this way, it will not affect the research and finalization of the rocket launcher, and can also achieve the effect of studying new combat methods and meeting new requirements.
After putting forward this idea, Gao Zhendong basically did not make any more comments or suggestions until the end of the meeting.
In his opinion, it was enough that he had obtained the simple emergency design method in advance. There was nothing else to change. It was perfect!
No matter what others think about this matter, Gao Zhendong feels the same way. You can say I am using a fan filter or you can say I am being empiricist. I, Gao, will not say a single word more today.
Don’t make blind suggestions if you don’t need to. It’s best to let 107 be released in its original form.
