Chapter 255 Wooden Plane
The next day.

This was a fulfilling night for most people, and the joke of "plowing eighty acres of land overnight" came true.

The next morning, when Chen Jian walked out of the gate of fortification 011, he was almost stunned by the scene before him.

All the wasteland within sight has been thoroughly cleaned up; rocks, tree roots, buried steel bars that had not yet completely rusted and decomposed, and debris have all been dug out and piled up into a small hill.

The eyes of the newly appointed excavator operators were bloodshot, but their mental states were excited and thrilled.

If Jiang Yu hadn't forced them to stop, they would probably still be staying on the excavator and unwilling to get off.

Chen Jian looked at the residents yawning while queuing for food with amusement, and shook his head and said:
"This is really interesting. The excavator has become a toy."

Hearing his words, Huang Yu, who happened to be standing behind him, suddenly stepped forward and said:
"Captain, in fact, when we first learned to drive, most of us also treated it as a toy."

"I think this mentality is good. It keeps people motivated."

"I didn't say anything bad. How was the training yesterday? Did you visit all the injured players?"

"I've seen it all, and the funeral has been arranged."

Huang Yu immediately straightened his expression and replied:
"Training went relatively smoothly. Yesterday's training was very intense, but no one was eliminated."

"In my experience, if they can make it through three days, basically no one will quit."

"However, these newcomers are a little different from us after all. I'm worried that if I give them too strong a medicine all at once, they won't be able to handle it. I plan to take a day off today."

"It just so happens that Captain Lei Jie has arranged an official mission, so let's all go and help."

"can."

Chen Jian knew what tolerance Huang Yu was talking about.

Prior to this, after completing the production of the gun production line in the intelligent workshop, Fuxi quickly turned to the synthetic ammonia direction that had been planned long ago, and the first thing to be affected was the most important high-pressure cylinder in the production of synthetic ammonia.

At this time, the design foresight of this smart workshop is fully demonstrated.

If it adopts a more "opportunistic" composition scheme and uses metal 3D printing technology on a large scale, then such large-volume, high-material-requirement key components are not impossible to produce, but they will be much worse in terms of efficiency and reliability.

Now, after just over 4 days, a 13.5-meter-high high-pressure cylinder has been produced.

Next, as long as the cylinder is installed in place first, there will not be any major problems with other subsequent equipment, whether in manufacturing or installation.

Of course, installing a high-pressure cylinder is not that simple.

Theoretically, it is almost impossible to install this high-pressure cylinder without a large crane.

Lei Jie adopted a method that could be described as opportunistic. He simply found a depression and planned to install the cylinder from high to low.

In this way, the problem of the crane was solved.

However, the relatively complicated transportation process can only rely on a large amount of manpower.

This is no easy job.

Thinking of this, Chen Jian said:
"You trained too hard yesterday. Those recruits probably haven't recovered yet."

"When we work later, try not to let them do heavy physical labor."

"Safety is still the most important thing. If there is a work-related injury, it will be a bit funny."

"Understood. Don't worry, Captain."

Huang Yu agreed repeatedly, and the two of them walked to the kitchen one after the other to get breakfast. After a quick bite, Lei Jie also began to lead everyone into the 011 fortification to prepare to start the transportation.

Most areas within the fortifications are paved with high-load-bearing tracks, and there are dedicated logistics elevators for the upper and lower passages. They did not encounter any problems until the cylinder was transported out of the main passage.

But after the cylinder left the fortification, the real challenge began.

The term "people pulling and shoulder carrying" may not be appropriate for the Chinese army which has a large number of large machines, but it is true that almost everyone in the entire base has been mobilized and each has his own duties.

Like ants, they worked desperately to carry this giant object that carried the future. Commands, shouts and calls were heard everywhere.

The sweaty men took the water bottles from the children and women, drank them in one gulp, and then turned around and went back to their posts.

As the temperature gradually warmed up, some people began to take off their clothes.

Under the midday sun, the muscular body contrasts with the huge steel structure that looks like a mountain, creating a tense picture full of postmodern industrial aesthetics. Chen Jian also joined the team and did his part.

As the sun set and the high-pressure cylinder finally landed at the designated location, the crowd erupted in huge cheers.

They achieved great things.

Even if it's just the beginning.

This was no less than a great victory, so Chen Jian generously issued the order to "add extra food tonight."

When everyone sat together and drank a "drink" that did not contain alcohol but contained a lot of sugar, all barriers disappeared.

Chen Jian looked at the people sitting around feasting with satisfaction, and said to Lei Jie beside him:

"We were worried about the problem of cohesion before, but now it seems that this problem does not exist."

“Large-scale industrial production is inherently a work of ‘spectacle’. As long as everyone participates, they will inevitably be bound together imperceptibly.”

"The sense of recognition will soon emerge, and all we have to do is to provide more guidance in this direction."

"So it looks like the situation isn't as bad as we thought?"

"really."

Lei Jie nodded in agreement, and then said:

"The world's 'ideological soil' is actually better than we expected."

“It’s very polarized in many aspects.”

"Religion is rampant and brainwashing is serious, but at the same time, what they believe in happens to conflict with what we can offer."

"The path of mass production is correct. We don't even need to correct their 'religious beliefs' because as long as we continue to do this, their beliefs will soon be wiped out."

"Of course, the prerequisite is that they must see it and participate."

"Yes."

Chen Jian put down the chopsticks in his hand and continued:

"That's why we need to gather as many people from the wasteland as possible around us."

"Let's not talk about this yet."

"Back to the matter at hand, how is the DF-26 repair progressing?"

"We're just short of fuel. There's no movement from the Circle Chamber of Commerce. We can only wait."

"But I have an idea about the plane you told me about the day before yesterday."

"explain."

Chen Jian looked at Lei Jie expectantly, and the latter smiled and replied:
"I've thought of a shortcut."

"We don't really have the ability to make aircraft engines, but we have enough high-power electric motors."

"These motors are enough to make a bomber fly - provided it is light enough."

"In this case, wood is good."

"what?"

Chen Jian was stunned.

"You're not trying to recreate a World War I biplane, are you?"

"of course not."

Lei Jie shook his head and said:

"It's the mosquito type."

"Mosquito bomber!"
