Chapter 177(1/2)
Li Xiao shook his head helplessly. The biggest advantage of tricycles over four-wheelers is actually the cost.
After all, if a wheel is missing, the cost will naturally be cheaper.
But if you combine load capacity, speed, and power, it may not be suitable.
Seeing that Li Xiao's expression was not very good, Xu Erjue smiled faintly.
"Commander, this thing was made by us for the remote rural areas of Ming Dynasty.
In places like Liaodong, Shandong, and Gyeonggi and Hebei, where the road infrastructure is pretty good but cheap tractors are needed, this thing is very suitable.”
"Yes!" Li Xiao nodded. Xu Erjue was right. The cost of building a tricycle is definitely cheaper than the current tractor.
"This is the tricycle we designed for the army!" Xu Erjue pointed to a tricycle that was being driven out of the garage.
This tricycle is actually a smaller version of Juli.
"This kind of vehicle can carry a load of up to 300 kilograms.
Both rear wheels use serrated rubber tires, which have strong grip and are suitable for poor road conditions.
The tires are wider and can better share the pressure on the car.
Although the load capacity is lighter, the speed is not fast enough.
But as a squad-level support vehicle, it’s still good.”
Xu Erjue obviously came prepared and directly reported the service target of this kind of vehicle.
Li Xiao nodded, feeling that this thing was really interesting.
"You can add a bulletproof steel plate in front of the driver to use it as a reconnaissance vehicle." Li Xiao pointed at the miniature Juli and nodded.
"That's right! Why didn't we expect it? Don't worry, Commander, we will install bulletproof steel plates soon."
The load capacity of 300 kilograms can fully carry three soldiers and their equipment.
Two of these vehicles can carry six soldiers.
Three such vehicles are perfect for the reconnaissance team.
Even if someone is injured or killed in battle, they can still use this thing to recover their luck.
Li Xiao nodded with satisfaction, and the research institute at the rear finally began to consider the problem from the perspective of the front.
This thing is enough to make up for the tractor's transportation dead spots and transport ammunition and supplies to those positions where the roads are narrow and even the tractor cannot reach them.
"Those of you who are doing research should organize some people to go to the front line and listen to what the frontline officers and soldiers have to say.
Don’t blindly engage in projects, engage in research!
Just like the 800mm mortar, it looks like it has good values, but when it comes to Russia, it can't be moved at all."
While Li Xiao was still talking, Zhao Liangdong ran over from the direction of the airship, holding a telegram clip in his hand.
"Commander...! An urgent call from the capital."
Li Xiao frowned. The caller from Beijing could only be Li Hao.
But Li Hao knew that Li Xiao's return this time was very tight, and the inspection of the military industry was so important.
If it's not a very urgent matter, I won't bother him.
I opened the telegram and took a look, and it turned out to be something troublesome.
"Zhao Liangdong stays and goes to pay my respects to Wang Changling on my behalf.
Let’s go back to Beijing!”
The airship was much faster than the train. Li Xiao arrived in Beijing from Shenyang in two hours.
"Tell me, what's going on?" When he arrived at Li Hao's office, Li Xiao found that Lu Zhu was also there.
Li Hao glanced at Lv Zhu: "It's up to you to say it."
Lu Zhu was not polite, stood up and said: "It happened a month ago.
A major officer from the Tianjin Supervision Department came to Beijing on business.
After the business trip, I had a drink with my colleagues and then got on the train to Tianjin.
Colleagues also presented some local specialties, including two Quanjude roast ducks and two bottles of Wuliangye."
Li Xiao blinked, he didn't understand why Lu Zhu said this.
Just because a young major took bribes, he was called back from Shenyang? What else could he say, urgent matters?
I glanced at Li Hao, hoping he would give me an explanation.
Li Hao didn't say anything, he just sat on the sofa with his hands on his legs and his thumbs kept turning.
"The next morning, our major was found in a secluded place not far from Tianjin Wei Railway Station.
The man was not dead at that time, but had been beaten to the point where he was no longer human.
The doctor determined that three ribs were broken, the skull was also fractured, and the calf bones of both legs were violently broken.
One of his fingers was broken off, and there were not many teeth left in his mouth."
It can be seen that Lu Zhu was very angry when she spoke. Her body was shaking slightly as she spoke.
"Being beaten to death?" Li Xiao also frowned.
The officers of the Supervision Department have a very high status, and even the Jin Yiwei have no right to detain them on weekdays.
Most of the officials were even too late to curry favor, so how could they possibly do something evil to them?
Local gangster?
That would be even more impossible. You must know that the Supervision Department is a powerful department.
Any blind bastard who offends these plague gods will be responsible for the death of his entire family.
"The person was not dead at the time. He was sent to the hospital for rescue for a day but could not be rescued." Luzhu took a deep breath and continued:
"After the incident, we immediately formed an investigation team to conduct investigations."
"Don't talk about the past, just talk about the result!" Li Xiao stretched out his hand to stop Lu Zhu and asked her to be more concise.
"After investigation, Jin Yiwei of the Tianjin Railway Station Health Station is suspected of committing a major crime and has now been captured by the Ministry of Supervision.
They already confessed this morning, and this is their confession."
Luzhu took out the oral confession and handed it directly to Li Xiao.
Li Xiao took the confession and put it directly on the table without even looking at it.
He knew that there would be no problem if he entered the prison of the Ministry of Supervision and made the prisoners admit that the Jade Emperor was his father.
As the person in charge, Li Xiao is worried about how to deal with the matter.
Judging from what Lu Zhu meant, it was obvious that dealing with a few station guards was not the only way to quell the anger of the Supervision Department.
"What are your regulations?" Li Xiao looked at Lu Zhu and Li Hao and said.
"Jinyiwei has been arrogant and domineering over the years, and his men have extorted money to an outrageous level.
According to the confession, the Jin Yiwei named Liu Delu had beaten someone to death last year.
Just because I like the leather shoes on that person's feet, that person refuses to give them to me.
They beat the people to death and threw their bodies into the reeds of the Haihe River to be devoured by wild dogs.
Also, they often resell train tickets and make huge profits from them.
…!”
Luzhu kept talking for more than ten minutes, and every item made Li Xiao feel chills running down his spine.
He knew that there would be some dirty things going on in Jinyiwei, but Li Xiao didn't expect it to be so dirty.
"What Jin Yiwei has done has greatly reduced the prestige of the imperial court.
The common people hated Jin Yiwei to the core, but they dared not speak out in anger.
I think Jin Yiwei should be abolished."
Li Hao was helping, and it was obvious that he had formed an alliance with Lu Zhu.
"In Jinyiwei, it can be said that officials protect each other. Luo Yangxing said personally that he would not give up on anyone of his own.
Now it has reached a point where members of the Jinyiwei family will be protected even if they commit crimes.
Years ago, I handled a case where a person was stopped on the road and complained of injustice. A good young girl was defiled by the children of the Jinyiwei family in turn.
My daughter had hanged herself, and the family had been complaining for several years, but they still didn't complain.
He also brought accusations against him, and the culprit was called a Jinyiwei.
The murderer racked up many charges and finally put the victim in jail.
Valley trap
They had no choice but to come to Beijing to stop my car and complain.
