    The train is still moving forward.

    As a nuclear-powered train, although it is not as exaggerated as the Snowpiercer train in the novel that uses a perpetual motion machine as its energy source and can run forever, it can also run for a long time with sufficient supplies, without having to consider stopping to replenish fuel.  .

    But even so, when the train entered the capital of Xinjiang Province, it still stopped at the station to replenish supplies for the last time before leaving Yanguo.

    "After we leave the border, we have to go to Lucia to get supplies. Although Kazakhstan allows us to pass, they cannot provide supplies." In the reception room of the carriage, the officer was explaining the itinerary arrangements to Chen Xin.

    "Can the railways in Kazakhstan and Lucia still be used?" Chen Xin didn't care much about the itinerary. He was more concerned about whether the railways could still be used.

    Kazakhstan and Lucia are unlike Yan State. In order to ensure domestic material transportation, Yan State¡¯s comrades on the railway front have been maintaining the railway tracks. In order to ensure the smooth flow of the railway lines, they have made great efforts and sacrifices.

    But abroad, Chen Xin is not sure whether they can ensure the smooth flow of railways.

    Especially for this kind of transnational line, it is very doubtful whether it can still be guaranteed to be smooth when it is difficult for all countries to protect themselves and there is no international exchange.

    However, the officer was not worried about this and said to Chen Xin: "Academician Chen, you can rest assured that the engineering vehicles we bring can carry out simple maintenance on the railway. If necessary, we can also pave a section by ourselves without affecting the journey.  .¡±

    "Really? Then I'll be relieved." When Chen Xin heard what the officer said, he nodded, seeming to be really relieved.

    Although for Chen Xin, this kind of thing is not worth worrying about. When the need arises, whether it is to change the train to crawler tracks and drive directly there, repair the original road section or simply lay a railway himself, he will do it.  It can be done.

    However, there was still a question that made Chen Xin a little worried. He turned to the officer and asked: "I remember that Lucia's railway and our country's railway are not the same width. After we pass, we need to change tracks, right?"

    This is inevitable. After all, Lucia's railway tracks use wide gauge for strategic reasons, unlike countries such as Yanguo that use international standards.

    "Yes, after we enter Lucia." The officer nodded affirmatively, but his expression was a little helpless: "Lucia said that we can use their stations and wheels, but we need to operate these things ourselves. They have already  There is no one left.¡±

    Hearing what the officer said, Chen Xin couldn't help but hold his forehead and said helplessly: "Their station should have been completely buried in the snow, right? How can we use it? Do we have to spend several months to help first?"  Did they dig out the station?¡±

    Relying on the surging power of the nuclear-powered nose, there is no need to worry about the snow on the track, and it can be driven with the hard top of the snow plow.

    But the station that was completely buried in snow was just like the train station that Chen Xin had dealt with in Linshi. It was not something that could be dug out by manpower.

    If you enter Lucia to change tracks, you need to dig out their station yourself first, which would be too difficult.

    "Yes, we are also worried about this matter. Although the Lucians said that they had put the wheels and other things into the warehouse before the disaster, and also provided a map of the station, we only need to put the cranes in the warehouse and the platform  It's okay to clean up the machine, but it's still very troublesome." The officer's serious face couldn't help but reveal a sad look.

    Track change is necessary, otherwise trains with different gauges would be prone to derailment, and now in this snowy weather, it can easily cause the entire train to overturn.

    However, Chen Xin is not as worried about this problem as the officers. If he really has to face this situation, he can directly upgrade the train and change the track gauge, which will not cost him many survival points.

    So Chen Xin said: "You don't have to worry about this. If you have to dig out the train station to change the track, I can use the engineering vehicle to directly change the wheelbase. It won't be a big problem."

    "Using a construction vehicle to directly change the wheelbase? Is this troublesome?" The officer did not doubt whether Chen Xin could do it, but was worried about whether it would be troublesome.

    In response to this, Chen Xin just spread his hands indifferently and said with a smile: "It's not necessarily more troublesome than digging up the entire station."

    "That's true. Then I'll trouble you, Academician Chen." The officers did not dwell on the matter any longer. They took the engineering vehicles on the road just to deal with various possible situations.

      After putting down the question, the officer looked at the document in front of Chen Xin and asked him curiously: "Academician Chen, do you have any thoughts on this thing?"

    "Ideas? My only thought now is why does the country need this thing?" Chen Xin also glanced at the monster with a dual-mounted 280 on the document, and shook his head helplessly: "What if there was such a thing during World War II?  , that is indeed a weapon of war.

    But this is the 21st century. Aren¡¯t missiles and rockets great?  The Navy no longer uses the 280mm gun barrel, right?  What can I do with this thing?  The chassis can be dismantled and modified to be used for some purposes, but other things are really of little use.  "

    "This" The officer looked embarrassed for a moment, picked up the document without leaving a trace, turned to the last few pages, and then asked Chen Xin: "Didn't you read the part about Academician Chen?"

    When Chen Xin saw the pages that the officer had turned to, he raised his eyebrows and said nonchalantly: "Remove the barrel and change this thing into an all-terrain vehicle? This idea is not impossible, but the person who proposed this idea  Have you considered the cost?"

    "Cost issue?" The officer was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect this.

    "This is a product of the Cold War. After being stored for so many years, it is still unknown whether this thing can be used. It needs to be completely overhauled and parts replaced, especially since it is still powered by nuclear power, which requires a thorough overhaul."  Chen Xin clicked on the document with his finger and said to the officer seriously: "Let's put aside these things, let's just think that Suvia's technology is awesome. This thing can still be used today, but what do you say about this thing?  This is all from half a century ago.

    Even if it can still be driven, many of its parts need to be replaced. Instead of repairing this old antique and driving it back, I might as well go directly to Lucia to get the information and build a new one.

    And I don¡¯t quite understand, what¡¯s the point of transforming this thing into an all-terrain vehicle?  Even if the military needs it, it wouldn't need such a big thing, right?  So what is the real purpose?  Or is there something inside this matter that I don't know about?  "(Remember the website address of this website: www.hlnovel.com
