Chapter 212, Episode 0220: It's still a gun!
The first sniper rifle was developed by Country E in 71, and then sold to Country M, which used it to supposedly support countries that were at odds with us.

Although the first sniper rifle had limited range and wasn't very accurate, its excellence was still undeniable. In less than two years, we suffered quite a few losses with sniper rifles.

Last year's battle with Y was very dramatic, but nearly thirty of our soldiers were killed by sniper rifles.

Xu Shan and the others couldn't participate in the war, but they could get some news. Once, when they talked about it in private, their eyes turned red, and they were all very helpless. They were all stained with sorrow, which made Lin Yuexi feel heavy-hearted.

Unable to resist, the idea of ​​"we also need sniper rifles" and "we must never again let our soldiers sacrifice themselves because of inadequate equipment" came to mind.

Hearing from the soldiers that they were satisfied with the equipment she had researched, Lin Yuexi was naturally happy. However, she had never thought of getting involved in how to distribute it after mass production.

Those who do research should focus solely on research; otherwise, their role changes.

But this person is her father's partner!

Lin Yuexi wasn't good at handling these kinds of things, but luckily her father was right there, so she turned to look at him with a troubled expression.

Leng Zhi kicked Zheng Weiguo in the butt, "Why are you asking my daughter about this? Go write your own report and apply, don't make things difficult for my daughter."

Zheng Weiguo seemed to have eyes in the back of his head, nimbly dodging his foot. "Hey, hey, hey, here you go again. You just start kicking without warning? I'm almost fifty years old, can't you give me some face?"

"You have no shame! Tear off the left side and stick it on the right side, get out! There are so many people inside, what kind of scene would it be if we all ran out?"

Zheng Weiguo laughed heartily and turned to run away. For the sake of the lives of his whole bunch of young soldiers, he was willing to be shameless.

Leng Zhi turned his head to look at his daughter with embarrassment, "Sweetie, don't pay attention to your Uncle Zheng. He has no redeeming qualities, especially his skin, which is thicker than a city wall."

Lin Yuexi smiled and shook her head, "Dad, it's okay, Uncle Zheng is quite cute."

"Tch, cute? Only you would call him cute. I'm fed up with him." Her tone was full of disdain.

Look at other people's partners; aren't all those intellectuals incredibly serious? Aren't they all refined and cultured? Aren't they all eloquent and articulate?
Then look at his partner, who is foul-mouthed, yet speaks in a refined manner, even more rough than a boor. The only thing that matches his status is that he is just as cunning as he is.

Others engage in ideological and political work by persuading, but he tries to convince them with words. If words don't work, he resorts to fists. This truly demonstrates what it means to have some martial arts skills!

"Let's not talk about him anymore. Can you stay longer this time? Your mom misses you so much. Last time I went back, she almost scratched me to a pulp."

Blood ties are important, but getting along with someone is equally important. Zhang Hongying gave birth to three sons, but the one she truly cared for from childhood to adulthood was not her three biological sons, but her daughter Lin Yuexi, with whom she had no blood relation.

Zhang Hongying practically drew blood and gave it directly to Lin Yuexi to drink. That shows that unless Lin Yuexi did something utterly heinous against the Leng family, Lin Yuexi would always be Zhang Hongying's most precious child.

So when Zhang Hongying found out that Leng Zhi knew his daughter was coming to the Northwest and had personally gone to pick her up without telling her, she really used the Nine Yin White Bone Claw to scratch Leng Zhi so badly that he was too ashamed to go to work the next day.

Zhang Hongying was like this, and so was Leng Zhi.

Lin Yuexi was unaware that Leng Zhi was actually present when she was born.

At that time, Leng Zhi happened to be away on a business trip. When he heard that Lin Erzhu's wife had given birth prematurely, he immediately rushed to the hospital. After Lin Yuexi was born, Leng Zhi was the first person to hold her, besides the doctors and nurses. She was just a tiny little bundle, and her cries were so weak that they were almost inaudible. Leng Zhi's feelings for this little girl were already different at that time.

After learning that the poor child had also lost his mother, he, who had been keeping a close eye on the situation, was the first to arrive with his wife. Before anyone could react, they quickly completed the adoption procedures.

He watched the little girl constantly teetering on the brink of life and death, and watched her grow little by little, bravely overcoming each obstacle. He felt both heartbroken and proud of her.

Looking at his daughter, who is now no different from a healthy person, Leng Zhi felt much less guilty, and he couldn't help but smile.

Lin Yuexi's face also showed a look of longing. "I miss my mom too. If the experiment is successful this time, I shouldn't be in a hurry to go back."

She didn't want to appear too much of a genius, as it wouldn't do her any good in the current environment.

She wasn't afraid of people focusing their attention on her; rather, she was afraid that people would focus their attention on the people around her.

My parents are doing well, and my eldest brother is safe now, but my second and third brothers are easy targets.

Aside from their lineage, if she were too dazzling, her eldest uncle, second uncle, and fourth uncle's family would also easily become targets of certain people or forces.

Leng Zhi patted her head happily, "The experiment will definitely be fine, unless there is a problem in the manufacturing process. However, there are people watching your project, so no one dares to do it. Don't worry."

Speaking of sniper rifles, Leng Zhi, also a soldier, couldn't hide his excitement, "You have no idea, it startled everyone."

Although Lin Yuexi mentioned the range and power in the data, it was hard for everyone to believe that Lin Yuexi said it would be at least 800 meters, considering that the latest foreign sniper rifles only have a range of 500 meters. Everyone was already very happy if it could reach the same range of 500 meters. If it could exceed that, it would mean that the technology had surpassed that of foreign countries, which would be worthy of national celebration.

As for the power, what Lin Yuexi said made everyone feel like she was bragging. She even said it would explode. If a bullet can explode, is it still a bullet?

Therefore, when the first wooden gun was tested, the initial fixed distance was only 500 meters, and the fixed material was just ordinary wooden planks.

Who would have thought!
After a loud bang, there was an even louder thud, a real tremor; soldiers who were nearby felt the ground shake.

It turned out that the bullet passed directly through the fixed handle and hit the wall behind it. Just as Lin Yuexi said, the bullet exploded after hitting the wall, and nearly four meters of the two-meter-high wall were destroyed.

Everyone was stunned into silence. The entire testing ground, with nearly fifty people, was filled with the sound of breathing.

The soldier who tested the gun, in particular, dislocated his jaw because his mouth was opened so wide.

"That's no longer a gun, each bullet is as powerful as a hand grenade."

Leng Zhi gave her a look, "Now you understand why your Uncle Zheng is so shameless, right? The last test of the gun was conducted in secret. Only those of us who were there at the time knew about it. All the soldiers were from our unit, and the only others were a few people who didn't believe you could successfully develop the gun."

"But this time is different. Not only did other research institutes get the news, but other military units also got the news. Even Lao Ning from the Northeast came today. How can Lao Zheng not be anxious?"

Last time, no outsiders knew, so Lao Zheng shamelessly confiscated the sniper rifle. This time, after testing the rifle, it became common knowledge. The Northwest Corps' advantage was gone, so Lao Zheng set his sights on their boss's daughter, Lin Yuexi, the researcher.
