Siheyuan: The Era of Struggle

Chapter 255: Wind Tunnel Experiment of J- Model (Subscription Request)

"Yang Ning, male, 25 years old."

"I graduated from PBC Polytechnic in 54, and I have been working as a lecturer at PBC Polytechnic since graduation."

Inside a private house in the DC area of ​​City of California, from the outside, this house looks no different from other houses.

But inside, under the lights, five people in various professional attire gathered around a table. One of them, wearing a blue work suit, pointed at Yang Ning's photo on the table and spoke to the others.

"On the surface?"

A middle-aged man in a gray Zhongshan suit said thoughtfully.

"Yes, openly." The man in blue overalls nodded and sneered.

"We didn't pay attention to this person at first, but recently there was news in Nanluoguxiang that he was the leader of the unit where Liu Haizhong's eldest son worked, didn't he?"

"So I followed them for a while, and found that the protection measures at the workplace of the Liu family's eldest son were very strict, and the guards and patrols were all armed with real guns, so I didn't dare to stay for long."

"But I can be sure that if the rumors are true, this person's identity is definitely not simple." The man in work clothes said with certainty.

"Any other news?"

The middle-aged man in the Zhongshan suit continued to ask.

"Yes, Yang Ning is a lecturer at Wudaokou Institute of Technology on the surface, but according to the information I have gathered, he has taught no more than five classes per year in the six years since graduation."

"The fact that he was given such a prominent identity here further proves that Yang Ning's true identity is not simple."

"What's more, dozens of people were dealt with just for a small rumor about him. Doesn't this show how important he is? Are you thinking of defecting to the enemy by dithering like this?" the man in work clothes asked unhappily.

"Huang Yonglong, watch your attitude when you speak. How do you talk to Team Leader Chen?" Upon hearing the words of the man in work clothes, a middle-aged burly man in a tattered black short coat slammed the table and glared at the man in work clothes with wide eyes.

The other two also glared at the man in overalls.

"What? Am I right?"

The man in the blue overalls glanced at the other four with disdain and said, "Ever since the giant missile mushroom appeared here three years ago, everyone has been pessimistic about the future."

"In the past few years, it seems like all of us have died. There has been no movement at all."

"If we continue like this, we will really have no future in making money." The man in overalls roared angrily, looking cynical and wanting to destroy the world.

"We finally have a target this time. If you continue to be timid, don't blame me for being rude. Think about what will happen to your family members at home?" The man in work clothes said ferociously, his words full of threats. His desperate posture frightened the other four people.

After saying this, the man in work clothes laughed contemptuously, then slammed the door and left.

"This is a lunatic. Why are we so unlucky to have such a lunatic in our group?"

After the man in overalls left, a big man with a face full of flesh and who looked like a butcher said angrily.

"That's right. With the development here, the equipment of the Security Bureau is becoming more and more advanced. Even if we want to send a telegram home, we have to be very careful, for fear that we will be caught if we are not careful."

As soon as the butcher finished speaking, a man wearing glasses and looking like an intellectual echoed him.

“How many people have been arrested for this reason in recent years?”

"Besides, we already have a super killer weapon here. People like us don't have any money to look forward to. It would be good enough if we can spend the rest of our lives in peace."

After hearing the complaints from his team members, Team Leader Chen continued to sit there calmly. Even the threats from the man in work clothes did not move him at all.

The others seemed to have noticed this as well, and the room slowly became quiet. The rest of the people all looked at Team Leader Chen, hoping that he could give them some advice.

"Are you done?" Seeing that the room had become quiet, Team Leader Chen looked around and asked meaningfully.

"Please show me a way out, Team Leader Chen!" the man with glasses said with a flattering smile.

They all knew that if they really carried out sabotage and assassination as the man in work clothes planned, they would definitely be caught, and there would be no way to survive if caught.

Could it be that they really don't know anything about those important scientists? That's ridiculous. After all, they have stirred up the situation for more than ten years, right?
But with the rapid development here, everyone can no longer see any hope, and most people just want to live in peace.

If their family members hadn't been there, they would have surrendered long ago.

Now there is a madman who wants to drag everyone to hell, and no one will be happy about it.

"Since he wants to die, we will help him!" Team leader Chen said viciously, seeming to have made up his mind.

"Team Leader Chen, you don't want to surrender, right?" the man in the short coat asked hesitantly.

"Our family is still at home. If the news leaks out, our family will definitely be sent to jail!" Others also dissuaded them.

"Don't worry, the news will never be leaked." Team leader Chen said calmly.

"We just need to do this and that..."

"Director Yang, we noticed that there are strangers hanging around you recently. Please be careful. We will also strengthen the protection work on our side."

That day, Yang Ning was processing documents in the office when Director Zhao came over in a hurry and spoke solemnly.

He had anticipated this situation after his news was widely publicized by Yan Jiecheng, but he did not expect the enemy to make a move so soon.

Yang Ning was not worried about his own safety. Not to mention the protection measures arranged by his superiors, even with his own skills, he could still handle a few rats in the dark.

What he was worried about was that some people would become desperate and attack his family.

"Is there anything unusual with my family?" Yang Ning asked worriedly.

"That's what we find strange." Director Zhao said doubtfully, "It seems that the enemy didn't intend to attack your family this time, and their tracking method was also very clumsy, as if they deliberately let us find them."

"It is precisely because of this that we are afraid that this is a deliberate trick set up by the enemy, so we dare not act rashly."

"Is that so?" Yang Ning was completely confused by this situation. He couldn't figure out what the enemy was up to.

Because of this situation recently, the security personnel around Yang Ning have been strengthened a lot.

At this moment, a soldier from the Security Department hurried to Yang Ning's office.

"Director Zhao, we received a note and a photo saying that a worker named Huang Yonglong from a certain unit was a hidden spy who wanted to harm Director Yang. The photo was of Huang Yonglong himself."

"Hi~" After hearing the report from the security soldiers, Director Zhao couldn't help but chuckled: "Is the enemy fighting among themselves, or are they deliberately releasing smoke bombs to let us relax our vigilance?" "It should be an internal fight. Now I'm afraid that only Huang Yonglong wants to attack me in their line. No one else wants to die with him, so they passed the news to us."

Yang Ning had watched a lot of dramas in his previous life, and with his quick thinking, he knew what was going on after just a little thought.

"If I'm not mistaken, Huang Yonglong should be nearby now." Yang Ning said confidently.

"Then what should we do now?" Director Zhao had never encountered such a situation before. After all, he was only responsible for the security work of the Aerospace Research Institute and didn't know much about the things on the secret front.

"Let's catch him. If what I think is correct, if we catch Huang Yonglong here, it won't be long before the people on this line will come to us on their own initiative." Yang Ning said with a smile.

As Yang Ning expected, after careful investigation, the Security Department discovered that Huang Yonglong was indeed secretly observing the Aerospace Research Institute nearby.

Director Zhao was also very decisive. After discovering the target, he ordered the arrest without hesitation.

Huang Yonglong was so confused that he was arrested by the security soldiers before he could figure out what was happening.

But this guy was also stubborn and refused to reveal anything no matter how he was interrogated.

However, what happened next directly broke Huang Yonglong's chest, because after he was arrested, the other members of their group were all arrested one after another.

It turned out that Team Leader Chen’s idea was that since no one wanted to die with Huang Yonglong, they should just kill him directly.

Of course, it would not be a good idea to point fingers at Huang Yonglong, because if you do, the higher-ups will know that something happened to their group and they will suspect everyone who knows Huang Yonglong's identity.

Things like this don't require evidence, just suspicion is enough, and their families will definitely not have an easy time.

Since Huang Yonglong has gone crazy, let him take the blame. His whereabouts were exposed during the operation, and he defected after being caught, so their team is gone.

In this way, the higher-ups cannot easily deal with his family members. After all, suspicion of treason and suspicion of being implicated are different. Moreover, after this operation, Huang Yonglong is more likely to betray.

After Huang Yonglong was arrested, Team Leader Chen took the initiative to cooperate and acted like he was arrested, and secretly surrendered himself.

Fortunately, Yang Ning reminded them in time, otherwise if Huang Yonglong was arrested again after returning, Team Leader Chen and his team would become the ones suspected of initiating the attack.

Because of the secret cooperation of Team Leader Chen and his colleagues, the city of Sijiu was hit by another major purge.

At this time, people had already discovered that most of these undercover spies had an expression of finally breathing a sigh of relief when they were caught.

This shows that they have all realized that after we have the ultimate weapon, their financial prospects and ambitions have become a pipe dream, and there is no point in continuing to resist.

After being arrested, they cooperated very well. In order to gain an opportunity to gain meritorious service, they took the initiative to confess the names of people they knew. After that, the number of enemies lurking within our ranks has become very small.

This is really DG affection all the time, and the name of "comrade-in-arms" is all on his lips.

These things had nothing to do with Yang Ning anymore. After ensuring safety, Yang Ning returned to the manufacture of the J-8 prototype and model.

Finally, after more than a month of hard work, the full-size model of the J-8 was finally completed.

Now that we have the model, the next step is to blow it up.

After the relationship with the Russian Bear broke down, a large-scale JP10 wind tunnel of the same model as the one in Southwest China was built in Sijiu City for wind tunnel experiments in the northern aerospace field.

Therefore, Yang Ning did not need to take the model all the way to the southwest to conduct wind tunnel experiments.

The wind tunnel test of the J-27 model was also very smooth. After all, Yang Ning borrowed the entire amount of the aerodynamic layout of this aircraft from the Soviet Union's Su- fighter.

Although there are still some shortcomings, due to the limitations of the current industrial technology level, this is already the most ideal state of this fighter.

During the wind tunnel test, when this fighter model performed a maneuver and roll under double-two conditions, all the people participating in the experiment were stunned.

"This fighter jet is simply..." The Air Force leader who came to visit didn't know what words to use to express his shock at this moment.

The successful launch of Shufei's J-7 light dual-engine fighter had made the Air Force as excited as New Year's Day for several days.

Although they already knew that the Aerospace Research Institute was researching a dual-engine heavy fighter, they did not hold high expectations when they saw the design data of the J-8.

After all, no country's heavy fighter jets can achieve both double-two flight and flexible maneuvering flight at the same time.

At that time, they thought that the reason why the higher-ups agreed to the project was to accumulate technology for the subsequent development of fighter jets.

But as the J-8 project progressed smoothly, the Air Force leaders suddenly realized: "Is this for real?!"

Until now, when seeing the J-8 model actually perform maneuverable tumbling movements under the double-two condition, at this moment, the Air Force leaders truly felt that the great era of their Air Force was about to come.

"I heard that the Russians had started developing a double-three fighter a few years ago. I wonder how our fighter compares to that one?"

The Air Force leader came up to Yang Ning and asked.

"Eight for one!" Yang Ning replied in a Versailles tone.

It’s really not Yang Ning’s fault for being Versailles. He knows too well what this J-8 fighter jet means to us.

As long as we make some modifications based on the J-8, even if our air force is no longer equipped with new fighter jets in the future, our air force will not lag far behind other countries in the next forty years.

"Eight for one, that's not bad, that means before other countries' new double-three fighters come out, our fighter is the most advanced!"

No, what does your disappointed expression mean?
Yang Ning did not expect that his words of Versailles would be misunderstood by the Air Force leaders.

I thought that only eight of our J-8s could defeat one of the Russian bear's double-III fighters.

"No, I mean that with the cooperation of anti-aircraft missiles, the Russian bear has to sacrifice eight of their double-three fighters in order to have a chance to attack us."

"Is it really that powerful?" asked the Air Force leader in surprise.

"Of course, our latest air defense missiles can shoot up to 3.5 meters high and travel at Mach 4. Combined with advanced radar and computers, the double-triple fighter jets that the Russian bear is developing will become sitting ducks if they enter the range."

“Even if a few are missed, as long as the air defense missiles can force them into the attack range of the J-8, no matter how many come, they will not be enough to defeat us.” Yang Ning said confidently.

As for why we know that Russia is developing the double-three fighter jets, it has to do with the level of confidentiality that countries currently maintain regarding their new equipment.

Throughout history, no matter whether it is the Russians or the Americans, as long as they launch a new equipment research and development project, it won’t take long for the other side to know about it. Once the other side knows about it, the whole world will know about it.

In order to show the outside world the strength of their industrial technology, these two would deliberately reveal the performance of some of the equipment they were developing.
