The door of the courtyard house has been welded dead

"Be careful, be gentle~!"

In the explosives warehouse on the second floor, several people, led by Li Xuewu, carefully carried out 122mm howitzer shells from an office.

"This thing is really heavy~!"

Even if you know that a shell weighs more than 20 kilograms, you can only experience how heavy it is when you actually lift it.

"You're a sledgehammer wielder, so isn't this where you should use all your strength?"

Yang Weimin did not argue. After all, in the renovation workshop, the tallest person was Li Feng, but he was not the only one with the strongest physique.

The muscles on his arms are even stronger than those of a guy who works out in the gym, and his shirt is bulging out.

"Five shells, sign. Are you going to fire a cannon? Can you handle this thing?"

After finishing the official business, it’s time to deal with personal matters. After all, this batch of artillery shells have been in storage for some time, and the rockets are consumed every now and then, but this batch of howitzer shells are being taken out of the storage for the first time.

Li Xuewu was very curious whether the workers in the factory could set up the cannon and fire the shells safely.

"I can't do that anyway, I can only watch~!"

"I don't know how either. Can't you just put this thing in and pull the rope to get it out?"

Yang Weimin didn’t know it either, but that didn’t stop him from understanding a little, even though it was only a little. That’s how it’s played out in the movies.

"Mm, this is called a fuze. This special wrench is used to tighten this thing. After screwing it into the head of the shell, the high-explosive shell will explode when it is fired~!"

Although he had never fired a cannon before, Li Xuewu read the instruction manual when the batch of shells arrived.

After opening the box, he squatted down, picked up a fuse, and immediately became a teacher, teaching the workers.

When he was speaking, he was still talking to Yang Weimin. Normally, it was easy for male comrades to understand these things. Although he also wanted to go and shoot one himself, he had no choice but to go to the warehouse.

"understand?"

"I see. It's almost the same as screwing in a screw. Then why are there numbers on it?"

In the spirit of not making mistakes if possible, Yang Weimin took the fuse of the shell, pointed to the numbers 123 and the ruler-like marks on it, and asked in confusion.

"Don't worry about it. It's set before leaving the factory. Just screw it on and tighten it before firing. Be careful. After the fuse is screwed on, it can't be knocked or hit, otherwise it will explode easily. If it's not screwed on, the shell won't explode~!"

Li Xuewu didn't want to teach too much, so he picked up a fuse operation manual from the drawer and stuffed it into Yang Weimin's chest pocket, then signaled them that they could leave.

The trunk of the jeep downstairs had been opened. Yang Weimin and a few others hurriedly delivered the shells, got in the car, started the engine and drove away impatiently. He had a driver's license, but had not driven a car for a long time.

Li Xuewu, who was standing on the second floor, watched the jeep go away with envy. It had been a long time since he heard the sound of a cannonball hitting the ground.

The vague image that remained in his mind was the scene of thousands of artillery firing at the same time when he first went to the plateau. It was indeed shocking.

After the car was out of sight, Li Xuewu returned to his chair. His house would be delivered at the end of the year. He touched the scar on his forehead and thought it was time to find a partner and get married.

the other side.

The door of the renovation workshop was now completely open.

The Hongyan truck equipped with a howitzer has retracted the spade at the rear of the vehicle and the hydraulic rods on the body of the vehicle. The staff are adding diesel into the vehicle with a hand-cranked pump.

The gun body has been covered with oil canvas, and even the muzzle on the front of the vehicle has been covered tightly, so the vehicle looks very strange.

Li Feng and Li Xuewen squatted at the door of the workshop, each holding a cigarette in their mouths, looking in the direction of the hazardous materials warehouse. They did not stand up slowly until they saw the arrival of the jeep.

Also arriving at the same time was Master Jia, who had returned from the Transportation Department with vehicle repair tools.

Everything from maintenance support to artillery shells was ready. Today, Li Feng brought Li Xuewen here specifically to listen to the sound. "That's Yang Weimin?"

Looking at the burly man who got out of the driver's seat of the jeep, Li Xuewen and Li Feng confirmed it again. It seemed that there seemed to be some kind of agreement between the two of them.

"Well, let's train him slowly. I'm looking forward to the day when he matures!"

Li Feng nodded. When Director Yang was in office, he was indeed very kind to him. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was grateful for his promotion. Later, when Director Yang was transferred, Li Feng was powerless to do anything.

Some things need to be taken care of. After all, this young man has shortcomings, but also strengths. The advantage is that he listens to advice.

If he had not calmly walked into the Security Department and detonated the time bomb of Li Huaide with the investigation team, who knows what the situation behind the steel mill would be like.

Of course, Li Feng’s views (crossed out) are always in bad taste, and there is always more than one point of bad taste.

For example, there is a plot in some novels that has been used to death, where a man is slapped in the face after being broken off, and then the woman expresses how regretful she is after he rises to prominence.

He would never admit that he wanted to see this scene~!

However, as Director Yang's nephew who stayed in the factory, Yang Weimin has some abilities and a certain appeal among young people. It is a pity that he only swings a sledgehammer in the workshop.

"Just add enough speed, it's not far, small cars should follow behind big cars, don't follow too closely, keep some distance~!"

Li Feng was going to drive the truck himself this time. He hadn't driven a truck for a long time and even missed it a little. Although the experience of driving to various places was relatively short, he still felt itchy.

"Get in the car~!"

Some of the people who have been selected have climbed into the truck cab, while those who have not gotten on can only watch with envy. They can only wait for news at home, as no one knows whether it will succeed or not.

As the truck slowly drove out of the workshop, the engine power of the Hongyan off-road truck loaded with "cargo" was more than enough. Li Feng drove the car himself, and his purpose was not simply to test the gun.

As a former excellent driver, mastering the maximum potential of each gear is also part of the experiment.

Although the truck gun is a door gun, the performance parameters of the truck will be written into the manual in the future. After the gun is installed, how far and how fast it can drive, if you want to tap this potential, only experienced drivers can figure it out.

The gate's communication room had received a notice in advance that there was no dispatch order for this dispatch. Even they didn't know what was on the truck.

"Don't look, don't ask. You know what you should know, and what you shouldn't know, just pretend you haven't seen it?"

The belt around his waist was equipped with a cowhide holster, and the emerald green military uniform made the serious Section Chief Liu look somewhat solemn.

After the vehicle left, he walked towards the security department. He had no interest in what the vehicle was used for.

Compared with the era of Li Xuewen, when the focus was on solving cases, maintaining relations with police stations, and maintaining a safe environment, during the era of Liu Guangqi, the Security Department paid more attention to defense and confidentiality, and the emphasis underwent a shift.

Of course, I also work part-time as a grille armor tester, and it's the same over there.

"The maximum speed in first gear is 15 kilometers per hour, and in second gear it is 30..."

The off-road heavy truck accelerated and decelerated from time to time on the road, testing its extreme performance after shifting gears. Li Xuewen, who was sitting in the passenger seat, wrote down what Li Feng said at this time.

This route goes northwest of the capital, which happens to be a mountainous area, and can also be used to test the climbing performance of the truck gun.

Until the final destination was at the gate of Tank 2I Regiment in Nankou Town.

Show your ID, scan your face, and enter.

When the Type 59 tanks equipped with grille armor came into view, not only did Li Xuewen's pupils shrink suddenly, but even Yang Weimin, who was driving the car, was shocked.

We entered the maintenance ground on the back mountain of the 2I Regiment and waited for the oil canvas on the truck gun to be lifted.

The officers and soldiers of the tank regiment also looked at this strange-looking and unique truck gun with great curiosity. (End of this chapter)
