Chapter XIX Combat Readiness Warehouse

In this Russian army's warehouse, a large number of SSH60 and SSH68 steel helmets are also stored, and even tens of thousands of sets of 6B2, 6B3, and 6B4 bulletproof vests used during the Afghan war are stored, which almost didn't make Gao Jianguo happy to death.

He was so excited that he immediately made a decision, and used these two kinds of steel helmets, as well as these kinds of bulletproof vests, to make the standard steel helmets and armor of the army in the future, and there were more than 100,000 steel helmets here, which was enough for their troops to equip in the early days.

In addition to these equipment, the warehouse also stocked a large number of field sapper shovels and picks, as well as countless shovels, pickaxes, sledgehammers, wooden saws, chainsaws, axes and other infrastructure tools for basic engineering. Li Ming and Gao Jianguo were stupid when they saw these things, it was best to move as many things as there were.

Anton introduced Ivan to them, the director of this warehouse, and went back to the car outside to wait, the person in charge of this warehouse is generally a person with no access, and this is also the worst place in the logistics department of the Russian army.

When Li Ming stuffed the check for 500,000 US dollars into Ivan's hand, this old man was stunned at the time, Ivan was more honest, and hurriedly handed the check back to Li Ming, repeatedly saying that no, it was too much...... Too much......

This is also Ivan's weak heart, even if he gives him tens of thousands of dollars, Ivan can let you move as you like, in his opinion, such a lot of rags are already outdated goods, who wants it!

Many of the equipment here are things used by the Soviet army during the war in Afghanistan, and there are even many things from the Cold War period of the Soviet army in the fifties and sixties.

Li Ming forced the check to Ivan, and talked to him about their thoughts, and Ivan accepted the check, "Bang...... Bang ......" patted his chest and assured that the things here could be moved casually, and he also promised to help them transport them to the designated place.

Ivan was extremely excited in his heart, even if these rags were emptied, no one would take care of them, even if someone came to check, it was worth it for him to run away with half a million US dollars, this bitter place could suffocate him, and he watched the people in several other warehouses eat and drink spicy food every day.

Li Ming and Ivan left each other's contact information, and they left the warehouse, and Anton saw that they had stayed for so long, so he asked suspiciously: "Do you still want the rags here, you say something, I'll find someone to help you ask for a few cars, you can pick whatever you want, and you don't even have to give money." ”

Li Ming patted Gao Jianguo on the shoulder and said: "My big brother is a military fan, he likes those things in it, especially the things during the Afghan war, he is the most fascinated." Li Ming explained with a smile, Anton didn't take it seriously, after all, there are many such people, even Maozi's side.

After coming out of the logistics combat readiness warehouse, Anton led Li Ming and them to the most important location of the trip, an artillery combat readiness warehouse near Vladivostok, where most of the artillery stored were towed body-barreled artillery.

There are even more varied artillery models, from the fifties and sixties of the Soviet Army to the Afghan War, the Chechen War, and even a small number of artillery used in World War II, it can be said that there are everything, including M-30-122 mm howitzers, D-30-122 mm howitzers, D-44-85 mm anti-tank guns, MT-12-100 mm anti-tank guns, M-46-130 mm cannon howitzers, etc., the number is enough to be thousands.

Many artillery pieces have been rusted because of the lack of maintenance for a long time, and some of them don't even have gun suits, which makes everyone feel sad to watch, these guns are enough to start a large-scale regional military conflict, and most of the artillery is not too backward.

The military procurement working group led by Gao Jianguo has long drawn up a detailed plan to put an end to multi-caliber and multi-ammunition types, and to try to select those artillery pieces that are simple to maintain, light and durable, and have a large ammunition inventory base.

The D-30122 mm howitzer, which everyone loves very much, is very much in stock here, there are thousands of them, and most of them are brand new, but there are no subsequent modifications of this gun. According to the head of this warehouse, Lev, the reserve of 122-mm shells of various models is quite staggering.

This also made everyone breathe a sigh of relief, the D-30122 mm howitzer has undergone countless combat tests, using a three-legged large frame structure, which can be fired in a 360-degree ring at a certain angle of fire at -9 degrees ~ +18 degrees.

It is very suitable for conversion into fortress artillery, and the Far Eastern Company attaches great importance to the security of the base area, especially in the initial stage of the company's start-up, to ensure the absolute safety of the Vladivostok base area.

Even if the D-30122 mm howitzer is installed on the two crocodile-class landing ships that are about to be purchased, it is very easy to modify, and the direct aiming distance of the D-30122 mm howitzer can reach 950 meters, which is invincible for sail warships in that era. A Crocodile-class landing ship can sweep across the Asian Ocean with only four doors.

And it can also effectively support landing operations, with 8 D-30122 mm howitzers equipped on two Crocodile-class landing ships, so to speak, all coastal cities in the world at that time were undefended against Far Eastern companies.

After a brief exchange with Lev, and learning about some of the stocks of the artillery combat readiness warehouse, everyone left here for the next destination, the Russian army

A combat-ready warehouse of ammunition near Vladivostok.

This ammunition warehouse is very large, the warehouse is built in a deep mountain, all the warehouses are located in the tunnels set up in the mountain, storing various caliber of light weapons, ground artillery, anti-aircraft artillery ammunition, as well as a large number of missiles, explosives, mines, grenades.

The storage of the entire warehouse is astronomical, but most of the ammunition has been decommissioned or even expired, and it is very expensive to destroy these massive amounts of expired ammunition, so this massive amount of expired ammunition is simply placed here, and no one cares about it for decades.

Gao Jianguo and Li Ming just stopped for a while, quietly bribed the person in charge of the warehouse, had a brief exchange with him, and left, rushing to their last stop today before dark to store tanks, armored vehicles and other vehicles.

All kinds of vehicles here are stored in the open air, and as soon as Li Ming and the others walked in, they were stunned by the tragic scene inside, and this is another open-air weapons cemetery for the Russian army.

Nearly 10,000 tanks and armored vehicles, more than 100,000 cars of various types, and special vehicles have been thrown here like this, and most of them have been scrapped after decades of wind and rain.

Everyone is sighing that Tai Nima is a loser, and Lao Maozi is really a big family.

There are many such sights in Russia, when the Soviet Union was in the Cold War, and these weapons and supplies were prepared for the Third World War. But with the collapse of the huge red empire, these steel giants that were once on the battlefield have now fallen to where they are today.

Li Ming glanced at everyone, shook his head and said with a wry smile: "I'm afraid there is nothing we want here." ”

Song Tao also smiled and said: "Just such a lot of broken copper and iron, I don't want it for nothing, I still think they take up space." ”

Gao Jianguo and Qiao Haipeng also shook their heads, it seems that this place is in vain, these vehicles stored in the open air may not be able to drive, there is no need for maintenance, and there is no value at all except for returning to the furnace.

At this time, Anton led a short and fat Russian officer to their side, and said with a smile: "This is Valery, the person in charge here, you can talk to him about any kind of vehicle you want." ”

After he finished speaking, he saw the depressed looks on the faces of Li Ming and the others, and immediately understood everyone's thoughts, and Valery next to him laughed even more.

"Ladies and gentlemen, let's not just focus on the superficial, we must be good at discovering the truth. There's nothing you're looking for here, so come with me and I'll take you to a good place. ”

The words of the fat man Valery stunned everyone for a moment, this fat man spoke fluent English, and listening to him, it seemed that there was not only these rags here, but also other things.

So they got into the car with Valery and drove to a remote valley not far away, a reservoir area built on a hill, and Valery led them to a warehouse.

As soon as they walked into the warehouse, Li Ming and Gao Jianguo saw well-maintained tanks and armored vehicles parked inside. Models include the T-55, T-72, BTR-60/70 armored transporter, BMP-1/2 infantry tank. There are also several UAZ-452 light off-road vehicles, UAZ-469 jeeps, as well as their variants.

The innermost part is a few trucks and their transformation cars that have been heavily equipped by the former Soviet army, such as Gil, Kamath, Urals, and Gas, and the oldest even has a prototype of the old Liberation CA10B, the Giss 150.

Valery turned around, pointed to the new-wiped vehicles behind him, and smiled at the crowd: "These are samples, there are many more in stock, and many of them are brand new." You can take a look here first, and there is a test site in the back, where there are all kinds of vehicles, and you can feel free to drive and experience it. Don't leave at night, just eat a simple bite here, although the conditions here are average, but the spirits and beauties are not bad, haha......"

Gao Jianguo and Li Ming listened to Valery's introduction, and immediately ran up impatiently to check it, several vehicles in their plan are here, in fact, the company has also proposed some models, such as Hummer, Land Rover, these advanced 4x4 off-road vehicles, but considering the extreme weather and harsh and complex environment in the Far East, especially in the extremely cold conditions, I still feel that several models of the former Soviet army are the most suitable for them.
