The latest generation of mechas developed by Nutshell Motor Co., Ltd. has not been named. It is temporarily called MX internally. This generation of mechas has been developed for more than ten years. In terms of power, A has made a decisive breakthrough.
The MX-type mecha is still powered by the Jingnong high-energy battery, but equipped with two latest jet engines behind the waist of the mecha, it can instantly increase the energy output of the mecha to that of the M52 mecha. Four times more!
This design is undoubtedly a bold and ingenious idea. After a decade of research, the multi-engine technology on the battleship has finally been successfully transplanted after overcoming a series of materials and microelectronics difficulties. When it came to the mecha, the realization of this idea not only cheered the engineers of the entire Nutshell Engineering Department, but also the federal military felt unprecedented excitement.
Twice the power in the steady state, four times the power in the instantaneous state, this is an indicator of leapfrog development. If placed on the battlefield, the MX-type mecha with four times the power can completely rely on its powerful maneuverability to treat the old mecha as a clumsy child. The most exciting thing for the military is that if In the future, the multi-engine technology will be mature, and the mobility of military mecha will be improved again. In the case of the increasingly depleted energy consumption of warships, long-range weapons on the general battlefield, such as self-propelled guns, such as fiber-optic guided rockets, will be difficult to hit. A mecha that evades at an extremely high rate...
If there is such a day, then the war between the Federation and the Empire, in addition to the warships suspended in space as a deterrent, these military mechas with great mobility will no longer be used only for special operations. , and can be placed on the frontal battlefield as the main force to advance. There is no doubt that this will be a fundamental change in the mode of warfare!
The MX-type mecha developed by the Engineering Department of Nutshell Motor Corporation and the federal military has only produced fourteen prototypes so far, but the speed shown in the laboratory has satisfied all parties. It will take at least two years for this batch of new mechas to be mass-produced and become real combat power, and the federal military does not know if the empire has any breakthroughs in the multi-engine technology of mechas, so the federal military The military imposed an extraordinarily strict time limit on Nutshell.
The Federation and the Empire, no matter which side is the first to own this high-performance mecha and put it into the battlefield, will definitely win the initiative in the war.
There is an old saying in the Commonwealth: if a nail is lost, a shoe is broken; if a shoe is broken, a warhorse is broken; if a warhorse is broken, a knight is broken; a fight.
This kind of mythical battle that can only be seen in movies and novels has never appeared in the history of the Federation. However, this shows the importance of details, logistics to the war. What's more, the new generation of MX-type mechas can change certain forms of war, and use the power of technology to bring about changes in strength in war.
Therefore, when the Ministry of Defense issued a strict time limit to the Nutshell Mobile Company, the director of the engineering department and the engineering staff were not at all surprised. They also understand how important the mecha they developed is. If you want to leave your name in history in the name of an engineer, then the development of the MX-type mecha this time is definitely the best opportunity.
Time is urgent, ten years of research and development time is over, after standard laboratory parameter acquisition and simulation exercises, the engineering department of Nutshell Motor Company sent four MX prototype mechas to Whitewater Company, and let the subordinate Whitewater Company in Bermuda. Used in regional conflicts in the delta star field to obtain first-hand data on the battlefield.
The regional conflicts in the Bermuda triangle star field have been incessant, and the experimental weapon planet chosen by the Whitewater Company is also far away from the part that can be penetrated by imperial spies, all of which are for the sake of secrecy. Even so, the federal military still sent one of the most powerful warships in the Third Military Region to follow the Whitewater Company's combat team from a distance and entered the edge of the Bermuda Triangle.
On the one hand, it is to cooperate with the engineering department of Nutshell Mobile Company to collect data, and on the other hand, it is naturally for confidentiality. On the barren mine star, all the refugees and thugs who have access to the new MX prototype mechas must eventually die.
For the birth of a generation of mechas, a fleet is needed to escort, which fully shows the importance the Federation attaches to this matter.
The small mob force on the edge of the barren mine star was eliminated by the White Water Company's combat team for seven days. Under the blockade of the fleet of the Third Military Region, this news did not miss the slightest, and did not attract the attention of any forces. However, when the engineers of the engineering department of Nutshell Mobile Company carefully calculated the data of the new mecha on the battlefield, they discovered a very fatal problem.
If this problem is not solved, the Federation's new-generation mecha MX can only stand quietly in the laboratory forever, and will never become a powerful weapon in the battle between the Federation and the Empire.
This intractable problem has alarmed all the senior executives from the board of directors of the Nutshell Mobile Company to the engineering department, and angered the federal military who had been excitedly waiting for the results of the experiment. Everyone was waiting for the birth of a mecha beyond the current era. Such bad news!
The Federation's new generation of MX-type mechas are top secrets among top secrets. Therefore, the research and development work in the past ten years has basically been undertaken by the engineering department of Nutshell Mobile Company. The Bell Company, at least experts from the Nutshell Research Institute or the Federal Academy of Sciences joined in, because the ancient Bell Company's multi-engine design of warships is undoubtedly the world's most advanced, but still based on confidentiality reasons, these ideas are ultimately did not come to fruition.
Last fall, Whitewater's combat experiment on the edge of the Bermuda triangle star field revealed a fatal problem with the new generation of MX-type mechas, and the Nutshell Engineering Department has never been able to solve this problem. That's why Jose, the personnel director, personally poached people in the spring recruitment, just to find some inspiration from those young, outstanding engineers without any inherent experience.
It’s a pity that these outstanding young people have been in the engineering department for too short a time, and they cannot help the inherent problems of the new generation of mechas, and the pressure of the federal military is too great, so the engineering department has to start to the outside world. Ask for help.
When Xu Le saw that email for the first time, he was already shocked by the genius twin-engine design inside. Those seemingly complicated but simple lines had turned into a very streamlined appearance in his eyes. The existence that gives people infinite beauty and enjoyment, in front of his eyes, there is a faint alloy light.
This is the crystallization of the collective wisdom of the federal engineers. Every design has undergone endless inferences and calculations, and it cannot be changed at all. In other words, a mature engineer seems to have no idea of destroying this wonderful design. .
The research institute officially joined the development of the new mecha, mainly to solve the problems exposed by the new mecha in battle. However, after all, it is the most top-secret cutting-edge technology in the Federation, so researchers like Xu Le, I just got the relevant data drawings through email, but I can't fully understand the power mode of the MX prototype mecha.
Xu Le's interest in life is in this aspect, not to mention that he still has some potential reasons to enter the engineering department and have an independent space to study mechas, so these days, he is very concerned about this matter.
He is just a junior researcher who has just received a systematic education. How could he solve the problems that the top engineers in the Federation could not solve just by relying on these leopard-like structural diagrams? If it were someone else, maybe looking at the drawings attached to the email and the question, there would be a sigh of relief and the thought of giving up.
But Xu Le no, he knows his talent in this area, and he understands that the drawings in his mind are a near-magical miracle.
If the problem of the new MX-type mecha can be solved, it is an irresistible temptation for an engineer, so these days, Xu Le's spirit is completely invested in the laboratory, using an unimaginable way speed, conducting design simulations and computational inferences.
The new type of mecha is a breakthrough dual-engine design. The dual engine is a main engine and an auxiliary engine. The main engine is like the power output system of the previous mecha, which promotes the movement rate of the mecha, and the auxiliary engine is the key to this system. , If the jet flow design is combined with the small flying wings that assist in the balance, the mecha can be accelerated in an instant during the battle, and the performance of the entire mecha will be improved to a terrifying level.
In the laboratory of the Engineering Department, the dual-engine design transplanted from the multi-engine technology of the warship perfectly realized the original intention of the designers, and the maneuverability of the new mecha was fully demonstrated. However, in the experimental use of the Whitewater Company, the dual-engine system will completely fail after one and a half minutes of continuous fighting for the four new mechas tested!
There was even a new mech that exploded irreversibly during an experimental battle.
The investigation report after the incident pointed out that the data collection carried out by the Nutshell Engineering Department in the experiment was the biggest difference from the actual battle, which caused the accident. The dual-engine design of the new mecha finally enters the full-scale power stage. When the dual engines output maximum power at the same time, the internal suction-type electronic jet, the running trajectory will be seriously unstable, resulting in cracks in the high-strength material of the engine casing. Even this crack will spread to the entire fuselage...
In the laboratory, the full-scale power stage of the dual-engine is basically in a static state, but in the battle, the full-scale power stage must appear at the most intense moment of the military mecha battle. The instability of the electronic jet will be greatly amplified when the mecha is traveling at a high speed, resulting in unpredictable consequences. It may be that the engine shuts down for self-protection at the same time, or it may be an explosion.
It's not terrible to have problems. After all, it is an epoch-making new generation of mechas. It is impossible to complete everything with the adjustment in the laboratory. The key is to find the problem. The problems found on the edge of the Bermuda triangle star field did not make the engineers of the engineering department nervous at the beginning. If there is a problem, there is a solution.
However, when the engineers at the top of the federation easily discovered the problem, it was extremely sad to find that the problem was basically... difficult to solve.
The multi-engine technology transplanted from the battleship, in a huge structural system of the size of the battleship, the fluctuation interference between the engines can be ignored. However, in a military mecha, this fluctuation interference, at full power, is not enough. Terrible consequences will occur. The most direct consequence is that it will affect the trajectory of the high-speed electron flow in the electronic jet...
The power source of the mecha is a high-energy battery, and the electronic jet is to convert the energy in the power source into a flow of electrons at the speed of light, which is injected into the engine air chamber, and converted into actual energy. The transmission system makes the mecha move.
The electronic jet is the most sophisticated and inconspicuous part of the system, and the design of the engineering department is still the same old design. In their view, the twin engine just adds an electronic jet split channel, and there is no essential difference. No one thought that this normally unobtrusive electronic jet would turn into a dangerous bomb in the new MX-type mecha.
It is easy for engineers to reduce the fluctuation interference between the twin engines, but they have no way to completely dissipate this interference in the space in such a tight system. As long as there is one interference, the usually silent electronic jet Those electron beams inside the device will suddenly be sensitive like a virgin, or shyly turn her head back, or caress Liu silently, or tear off her clothes angrily with a blushing face...
The problem lies in the Z4 electronic jet. Judging from the current technological level of the Federation, there are many ways to control the trajectory of the electron beam, but those methods require the use of large-scale equipment, so they can only be placed on warships. Cannot be used on mechs.
Once the electron beam running at high speed is dissipated, it will enter a state of eddy current and escape everywhere under the control of the field. If the escape trajectory of the electron beam during the full-amplitude power stage of the twin engines can be found out, then the federal engineers must have a way to design the corresponding induction equipment to re-introduce these electron flows into the engine empty chamber.
But the problem is that the high-speed escaping electron beam has an unmeasurable trajectory, and in the dispersed quantum state, the federal research for tens of thousands of years can never solve this problem.
The development of the federation's new generation of mecha seems to be destroyed in the hands of this small stream of electrons.
After countless failures, Xu Le fell into silence. Seven days had passed, and he still couldn't find any direction when looking at the complicated structure diagrams on the light-screen desktop. The structural diagrams that flashed through his mind like a dream really helped him a lot, so in seven days, he has tried more than 50 design schemes, and this speed has surpassed the Nutshell Motor Company. The imagination of those top designers in the engineering department.
But there are still only failures. No matter how whimsical the design is, in front of the naughty electron beam, it is still a tangible thing, and it is impossible to capture the trajectory.
He stared silently at the three-dimensional screenshot of the electronic jet on the light screen, and suddenly frowned, wanting to understand something. In such a small-scale system, it is impossible for the electron beam to capture. To solve this problem, it is necessary to predict the scattered trajectories of these electron beams in advance from the moment after the electron beam is interfered by the band...
But the question is, according to the theory of the federal scientific community, the scattered trajectory of the high-speed electron flow should be random, how can it be predicted
Quantum is unmeasurable.
Subconsciously, Xu Le's eyes lit up, his finger clicked on the index tree in the middle of the database, and opened up the research results that Professor Shen had not made any progress in these years. Quantum measurable dynamics!
These papers of Professor Shen Lao have been published. The editor-in-chief of those academic journals, as well as people who are highly respected in the academic world, just wrote some replies based on their respect for the Nebula Prize winner, but no one supported Professor Shen Lao. View.
Xu Le silently and quickly checked the research results of Old Professor Shen over the years, his eyes narrowed more and more and became brighter. As the federal scientific community says, quantum dynamics is unpredictable, which is basically an axiom. Although these theories of Professor Shen look simple and beautiful, there is no possibility that they can be inferred. , even to be falsified.
Just a beautiful and illusory bubble.
However, this bubble was so real in front of Xu Le's eyes at this time. He simply moved a chair and sat at the table, forgetting about the transformation of the simulation system, and began to study Old Professor Shen's theory seriously and with great interest.
A beam of electrons escaping at the speed of light, within a certain order of magnitude, after being disturbed by a fixed band, what trajectory will it follow? What kind of beautiful flower will it become
When Xu Le was alone in the laboratory and kept guessing what kind of flower the electron flow would turn into, there were countless others like him in the Federal Academy of Sciences, the Research Institute of Nutshell Motor Corporation, and the Engineering Department. The researchers of , are fully devoted to the battle to solve the Z4 electronic jet. Most people do not know that this problem is related to the latest generation of military mechas of the Federation. After numerous failures, many people gave up.
However, Xu Le did not give up, because he knew that this was the critical moment for the latest generation of mechas in the federation. It was strange to say that it seemed that the secret authority he had in the research institute was much higher than that of ordinary researchers.
However, an unexpected event disrupted Xu Le's life rhythm.
Seeing that the man in the school officer's uniform walked into the elevator with a gloomy expression, Xu Le put out the cigarette in his hand, held it in his hand, and walked into the ward. He looked at the pale and nervous girl on the hospital bed, smiled and said, "I want you to go home?"
Zou Yu nodded tiredly and said, "Since the doctor said there is no major problem, I don't want to go back for the time being. You also know that the most important thing for pregnant women is their mood."
"Now that you know, make yourself feel better." Xu Le advised.
For some unknown reason, Zou Yu found himself bleeding a little in the bathroom last night. In that scream, Xu Le rushed in nervously, and sent her to Wangdu Hospital as soon as possible. After a doctor's examination, it was confirmed that Zou Yu was at risk of a threatened miscarriage. In addition to being nervous, Xu Le was also a little surprised. Zou Yu's health was excellent, and he had completely avoided tobacco and alcohol recently. There were signs of threatened miscarriage, which could only be due to other problems.
Could it be that you were frightened in the Linyuan restaurant that day? He looked at Zou Yu on the hospital bed and said after a moment of silence, "I can understand that you are very nervous now."
Zou Yu stared blankly at the snow-white ceiling above his head, and after a while, he said, "You don't understand. You men will never know that when a mother is born, she knows that once the child in her womb is born, she can only be pointed at by someone. How bad her mood was when she had an illegitimate child on her back."
Xu Le is a careful and sensitive person, but it does not mean that he can detect all the thoughts of the people around him. After hearing this, he was stunned and his heart became heavy. This is indeed a problem that Zou Yu and the child in her womb will inevitably face. Now when others ask, he can still say that he is the father of the child in Zou Yu's womb, but what will happen in the future? Children always grow up, and Shi Qinghai... I don't know if he is still alive.
Zou Yu withdrew his gaze, looked at Xu Le coldly, and said, "You said that you will be responsible for me and the child in my womb instead of Shi Qinghai, what are you going to do?"
"I don't know." Xu Le answered honestly.
Zou Yu closed his eyes and said softly after a long, long silence, "Forget it, this matter has nothing to do with you."
"If I hadn't insisted, maybe at the beginning, you wouldn't have wanted this child."
"This is my child, and it has nothing to do with you."
Xu Le suddenly found that when he was with Zou Yu now, he would talk more and more. Does this mean that he has regarded her as his friend. Looking at the pale Zou Yu on the hospital bed, his mood suddenly fell, and he subconsciously thought of the words he said when he and Zhang Xiaomeng planned the future.
"When the child is registered in the future, the father will fill in my name."
Xu Le is a guy who doesn't hesitate after he has made a decision. In this respect, he really doesn't look like a 20-year-old young man, but an old man who has put everything down after a hard time.
Zou Yu slowly opened his eyes and looked at him with a very strange look. After a while, he said softly, "Are you really crazy? You can pretend to be the father of the child, you are really ready..."
Xu Le smiled and said nothing.
In the quiet forest garden of Wangdu Hospital, Xu Le withdrew his gaze to look upstairs. The lights in Zou Yu's ward had been turned off. Standing alone in the dark, he looked up at the starry sky, but saw two bright moons. It's not a two-moon festival, there's no dance, and he once loved someone, but that person is dead. He thought to himself that he would probably never fall in love again in his life.
Walking to the trash can, he was about to throw the cigarette butt in his hand, but suddenly stopped, Xu Le slowly tore open the filter, and tore the sponge inside one by one, tearing it into a ball of fine shreds The messy mess, I thought in my heart, what Uncle said back then, the lives of the people in the Federation are indeed like a mess.
"What kind of shape will this beam of electrons take after dissipating?"
In the quiet laboratory, Xu Le squinted and looked at the constantly changing images on the light-screen desktop. The electron beam trajectories in those theoretical models were like a child who would never settle down, sitting on a curved line. Different roller coasters, sometimes protruding, sometimes revolving, sometimes like a flower, more often like a fog.
"It will turn into a lump."
An old voice sounded behind him, and an old finger stretched out tremblingly. In the theoretical calculation model on the light-screen desktop, he slowly entered several extremely unfamiliar parameters, and at the same time added a simple formula.
That finger seemed to have magic power. With the input of those parameter formulas, the mist of electron beams on the light-screen desktop gradually gathered and overlapped, became clear, and turned into countless delicate and uniform lines, which stretched and then fell. It seems to be irregular, but in fact it is disorderly and orderly, like a mess made up of a thread. As long as the thread is drawn, all the directions of the mess can be determined.
Xu Le stared at the changes on the light-screen desktop, watching the formation of this numbness, then turned around and looked at Old Professor Shen with an incredible look, shocked and speechless for a long time.
