Chapter 1999, happy little steps
In the political hall, Luo Ji had been waiting there for a long time. On this day, even Ye Qingxuan came over specially to see off their old minister.
After all, strictly speaking, Ye Qingxuan, who is responsible for managing the finance and commercial economy of Wanjie Civilization, is the old minister's immediate boss.
Taking happy little steps along the way, the old man came very quickly.
"So many years have passed in the blink of an eye, and the old minister is also retiring. I feel really sad to part with him."
After meeting the old minister, Luo Ji felt a bit sad and couldn't help but express a few words of emotion.
Unexpectedly, when facing this battle, the old minister took two steps back almost instinctively, with a hint of wariness flashing across his face, as if asking, 'Your Majesty, are you trying to trick me again?', which made Luo so upset.
The editor looked embarrassed.
Lu Yang, Ye Hua and Henry Boer on the side wanted to laugh but dared not.
Ye Qingxuan, who was standing next to him, had no scruples and burst into laughter.
Then after seeing off the old minister, Ye Qingxuan looked at Luo Ji who was full of melancholy with a playful look on his face...
"I have called you the old minister in Tiantiankeng for these years. Now it's better. The old minister has a psychological shadow on you. I am afraid that you will ask him to work for a few more years."
"..."
Talented people emerge from generation to generation, and a new generation replaces the old.
Luo Ji half agreed with this statement.
There are indeed many talents in each generation, but truly top talents are not found in every generation.
There are really not many talents who are at least five-star level.
Of course, it's also possible that Luo Ji didn't notice it.
But there is nothing he can do!
Now that he is a civilized person in all realms and has a great cause, with a population of hundreds of millions, how can he still look at the attribute panels of those people one by one? How can he have that kind of time and energy?
There must be talents that have been buried for so many years, but it is useless to dwell on this issue.
Now the retirement of the old Minister of Finance heralds another round of replacement of the old and new bloodlines of their world civilization.
Calculating the time, in two months, the old director of the Construction Engineering Department will also retire.
Suddenly, Luo Ji's mood became even more melancholy. After all, he had been a monarch and minister for so many years, so of course he had some feelings.
On the first day when the old minister was away, I missed him.
The day after the old minister was away, I missed him.
On the third day when the old minister was away, I thought, eh? A joint report from the Academy of Science and Technology and the Ordnance Research Department? The dwarves have successfully developed the geocentric engine?!
After receiving the news confirming the successful development of an important project at the Science and Technology Institute, Luo Ji walked happily towards the test site outside the city.
Among the several projects being developed, the dwarven geocentric engine is undoubtedly a project that Luo Ji attaches great importance to.
Because according to the next development, whether he is building an aircraft carrier, a tank, a combat vehicle, or even a fighter jet, a powerful engine is crucial.
For such an important component, it would be very reassuring if it could obtain the quality and performance guarantee of Dwarf.
However, black technology is black technology after all. Over the years, the R&D project team has conducted several internal experiments intermittently, but the results have always been somewhat unsatisfactory.
The last internal trial was conducted three months ago.
According to Luo Ji's original expectations, it seemed that he would have to wait another year or two before the dwarven geocentric engine could be successfully developed.
As a result, he never expected that only three months later, the R&D project team would send a report on the success of the R&D!
Of course, this time, the test of the dwarf geocentric engine was different from the conventional test.
Because that powerful steel heart has now been installed into the body of the steel monster named "Tank" in front of him.
That's right, this test is a joint test jointly requested by the Academy of Science and Technology and the Ordnance Research Department.
Whether an engine is powerful or not, you really can't tell if you let it idle there. You have to look at the vehicle it is installed on.
To give a simple example, in modern society, any car engine, if you step on the accelerator, can produce a hundred horsepower every minute. It sounds quite powerful, right?
But if you try to install that engine on a main battle tank, you will know how cold it is.
Therefore, if you want to verify the performance of the dwarf geocentric engine, the best way to verify it is to install it on a tank and combat vehicle and see how far it can make this steel monster on the land battlefield soar!
Regarding his latest improved work, Bart Wildhammer can be said to be full of confidence this time, vowing to wash away the shame of the last time.
During a formal performance test, the track actually fell off? For Bart Wildhammer, this was simply a stain on his life!
This directly led him to completely abandon other projects in the following years and concentrate on improving the dwarf tanks of their dwarf race.
But this time, the joint experiment with a project team from the Academy of Science and Technology can only be said to be a coincidence.
The R&D project team of the Academy of Science and Technology needs a tank and combat vehicle to prove the performance of their geocentric engine, and Bart Wildhammer also needs a geocentric engine to make his tank and combat vehicle more perfect!
When Luo Ji arrived at the testing site, Guo Jia was already there. After all, it was military equipment, so there was no way he wouldn't be there.
The test started quickly, starting with a series of basic performance tests such as some simple two-way stability tests and flexible pole winding.
After confirming everything, the main event will come soon.
In front of you is an artificially created test site. Basically, it includes all the terrain that may be encountered in the wild. At the same time, there are multiple artillery targets placed along the way.
The content of the test is very simple. Rush in with a tank, shoot at the target, knock out at least five, and complete a circle within ten minutes. This is considered basically qualified, and then you only need to wait for the actual combat test.
The testers obviously would not let this tank run too easily. New adjustments were made to the position of each firing handle, and even part of the terrain underwent small changes.
After the initial command was issued, the geocentric engine immediately started running at high speed, causing the steel monster to roar out powerfully and rush out with extremely ferocious momentum.
The speed displayed shocked both Luo Ji and Guo Jia.
"So fast!"
When this dwarf tank was tested last time, it didn't have this speed. There is no doubt that the geocentric engine started to exert force!
Even in complex off-road terrain, the speed is jaw-dropping.
For this dwarf tank combat vehicle, which has already reached the standard of black technology, the installation of the geocentric engine is simply even more powerful.
Maintaining its ferocious momentum, the galloping dwarf tanks quickly approached the first artillery target.
However, the tank had no intention of slowing down.
Maintaining a galloping speed, the fort rotated rapidly. The two-way stabilizer was extremely stable at this moment, and the ferocious muzzle was directly locked on the distant shelling target.
The sound of a cannon, even though it was a training round, still shattered the entire target into pieces!
"good!"
Seeing this scene, Bart Wildhammer shook his fist fiercely. The excellent operation of the four crew members undoubtedly gave this test a good start!
Chapter completed!
