Chapter 56 Busy Night

Qin Tao decided on the missile boat matter and brought Zhao Ling and Hao Kejian to join him. He was also extremely surprised to see the crew changing the engines quickly.

"The Russian actually gave us such a big gift? That's not bad." Qin Tao said: "If you change to a new engine, you will have more guaranteed flight. However, these old ones cannot be left for the Russians. Our ship has not yet left, so we can carry all the old engines onto the ship."

Qin Tao did it even more neatly, and Zhao Ling was a little curious: "What are the uses of these old engines?"

"There are many special alloys inside, and they can be sold for money if they are disassembled." Qin Tao insisted on his spirit of collecting rags and refused everyone.

"Everyone work harder, don't worry about the installation first, remove the engine first." Qin Tao continued to say hello.

After saying that, Qin Tao climbed up the gangway and got into the passenger plane.

The Russians were constantly exploring the potential of the Tu 104 passenger plane. In the end, they actually arranged more than 100 seats in this kind of passenger plane. So when Qin Tao stood in the cabin, he saw dense seats.

The seat spacing is very small, I really don’t know how those tall and big Russians were frustrated in such a narrow cabin.

"Xiaoling, should we go back by boat or by plane?" Qin Tao asked Zhao Ling, who was following him.

"Go on a plane, it's faster."

"Aren't you afraid of danger?"

"What's scary? Anyway, it's with you, even..."

Even if you die, you will die together. This is what Zhao Ling didn’t say, but this is not auspicious and of course she can’t say it anymore.

Qin Tao shook his head and climbed into the front cabin helplessly. Unfortunately, Qin Tao didn't recognize so many instruments in the cockpit. In order to avoid trouble, he did not touch them randomly.

After a while of visit, it was getting dark. The Russians brought food to everyone. Everyone was eating some on the plane and continued to work.

This place was originally in the most secluded place in the aviation base, so no one came to disturb me. In order to avoid attracting attention, they would stay here and not run around before repairing the plane. Anyway, there was space inside the plane. When they were tired, they would lie in it and sleep for a while, and then continue to do it when they woke up.

Qin Tao only knows how to build ships, but not how to fly, so it seems that it is no longer interesting to stay here, and he is concerned about the cargo ship leaving the port at night, Qin Tao returns to the port again.

A large Kamaz truck followed rumblingly, with the dismantled engine on it. Since Qin Tao wanted these rags, the Russians didn't say anything and sent it to Qin Tao. Anyway, the distance between the aviation base and the dock was not very far.

The only shame is that the number of crew members brought was not large, so in one afternoon, only four engines were removed.

"Brother Zaitsev, thank you." Qin Tao and Zaitsev, who were driving.

There were three people in the cab, Zaitsev was driving, Qin Tao and Zhao Ling were sitting in the passenger seat, and the engine in front was still roaring, and Qin Tao had to shout to make Zaitsev hear it.

"No need to thank you, General Nikolai said, let me follow you and help you handle all kinds of things and complete our cooperation." Zaitsev said: "Now these are what I should do."

"I don't have any good things on hand. Please accept this gift." Qin Tao said, and took out a small thing like a magic trick.

It is less than ten centimeters in length and looks relatively small. It has a red handle on the outside and a metallic luster inside. As the car starts, street lights are constantly passing through, and the lights shine into the cockpit. Zaitsev can see clearly.

"Swiss Army Knife?" Zaitsev completely let go of the steering wheel with both hands, took it quickly, and opened the folded things.

There are different blades, spiral-shaped wine bottle drivers, small scissors and screwdrivers, which look very delicate.

Zaitsev's face was very happy: "Qin, thank you very much!"

"Then you put your hand back on the steering wheel." Qin Tao said. Although the road on the pier was very wide, the car was already deviating to the left.

"Okay." Zaitsev held the steering wheel in one hand, but still played with the Swiss army knife in the other hand.

Zhao Ling's face turned pale when she saw it.

The car drove to the berth of the Mingyuan cargo ship and saw that the boom was still carrying the cargo on the ship. This ordinary bulk cargo ship was too slow to load and unload.

"If you carry these engines onto the ship now, it will waste time for unloading." Qin Tao said: "In order to speed up, let's load these engines on that speedboat. When the goods are loaded and unloaded, you can use the freighter to tow the speedboat away."

Zaitsev frowned: "That speedboat doesn't seem to have room for these engines, right?"

"Why aren't there? Aren't there four launch cylinders behind?"

When Zaitsev heard Qin Tao say this, his eyes lit up: "Yes, just do that, Qin, you are so smart."

Kamaz continued to move at the port and arrived at the dock where the speedboats were docked in the corner. Zaitsev called a crane, and after he was able to get busy on the dock.

There are four huge launchers behind the missile boat. Although they have been abandoned for a long time, the cover of the launcher can still be opened manually. When the crane sways and lifts the first engine, it is really smoothly stuffed into the missile launcher!

Of course, this is also because the P-15 (NATO code-named SS-N-2 River Styx) anti-ship missile is stuffed inside. This is the first generation of anti-ship missiles of the Russians. It uses a liquid rocket engine, so it has a huge belly. The entire missile looks like a bloated silkworm baby, so it has the nickname of a silkworm missile.

The RD-3M engine was stuffed in, and it was actually very perfect. These four missile launchers were temporarily used as cargo boxes.

One, two, three…

Having lifted to the last one, Qin Tao also helped, hanging the lifted cable on the last engine, and it was almost time to finish the work.

"When we finish the assembly, we will go have a drink. The bar outside the base." Qin Tao and Zaitsev greeted.

However, at this moment, the place where the cables connected suddenly loosened, and the last engine dropped into the sea with a thud.

"Damn it, what's going on?" The crane driver got off and couldn't help cursing.

Qin Tao also looked embarrassed: "How could this happen? Losing an engine is not a big deal. Anyway, we took off and sold scrap iron when we went back. However, if we didn't stuff the empty launch tube, the missile boat would be unbalanced, and there might be a risk of overturning during the dragging back. Zaitsev, we have to find something to put in."
