Chapter 474: Entering the base
As the explosion-proof door of the military base, which had been covered with dust for many years, opened, a wind with a decay smell blew out from it.
However, Chen Xin and others didn't care, but walked in directly.
This is not a reckless recklessness, nor is it that they do not know that such underground facilities that have been closed for many years should be exhausted before entering. It is just that everyone is wearing fully enclosed protective clothing.
Because we know that two of the three land cruisers were nuclear-powered, and according to the records provided by the Lucians, none of the three land cruisers had removed the power source when they were sealed.
In other words, except for the prototype using energy crystals, nuclear reactors are still placed on the other two land cruisers.
Considering the possible radiation pollution and leakage problems after so many years, no one dared to carelessly change into fully enclosed protective clothing that can isolate radiation pollution, so as not to accidentally get infected with excessive radiation and explain it to yourself.
"Sure enough, radiation leaked, but it doesn't seem serious." Entering the base, the Geiger counter in the hand of a staff member had already sounded driply, but the frequency of the sound was not fast and the radiation dose was not yet dangerous.
When the officer heard the staff say this, he ordered the soldier who was waiting on the side: "Search the entire base and be careful!"
"Yes!" A soldier in charge of the team responded, divided the soldiers entering the base into several teams, and began to search.
Chen Xin, along with the officers and several staff members, walked towards the depths of the base under the protection of several soldiers.
As for the source of radiation, everyone knows that it comes from the three land cruisers that were sealed, and there is no need to deliberately search for it. The map provided by the Lucians has already clearly marked the place where this thing is sealed, and they just need to follow the map to move forward.
As for why people were sent to search for this long-sealed base, it was because according to the information provided by the Lucians, there were not just three land cruisers sealed here.
As a base for conducting secret military experiments and testing various equipment, it also contains many things left over from the Soviet era.
Not only are there various experimental equipment and test records tested here back then, but there are also many other things left behind when they were evacuated.
After all, according to the information provided by the Lucians, this place was abandoned after the disintegration of Suvia. A large amount of materials and materials were left behind during the evacuation. These things are of high value. Even though decades have passed, they are still a good harvest and worth taking away.
They also have another job to eliminate possible dangers in this base.
No matter what, it is an old base that has been sealed for decades. No one knows whether there has been any changes here after so many years, and whether the things that have been stored for decades have expired or become some dangerous items.
Therefore, when the soldiers searched the entire base, they were also checking for these possible safety hazards.
While the soldiers searched the base and gradually discovered some gains, Chen Xin and others had already arrived in a huge warehouse inside the base and saw three sealed land cruisers.
Although Chen Xin has seen the photos and has a clear understanding of how big this thing is, the photos and standing in front of this thing to feel its hugeness are two completely different effects.
The land cruiser, more than ten meters high, was covered with a huge dark green felt cloth, covered with dust. Under the searchlights in the hands of several soldiers around, it looked like a dirt-faced and inconspicuous.
Although they are covered with felt cloth, this cannot conceal the hideousness and majesty of the steel giant beast under it. Two flat 305mm cannon barrels lift the felt cloth up. If you don't distinguish it carefully, you may even think that this is a small hill.
Even if the flat gun barrel is placed, the space under the gun barrel and felt cloth can still make Chen Xin and others stand in without feeling crowded.
"Release it, all three of them." Chen Xin looked at the three land cruisers lined up and signaled to lift the felt cloth.
When several soldiers heard Chen Xin's words, they lifted up the felt cloth covering the land cruiser little by little, and even climbed up for convenience.
With the movements of several warriors, the felt cloth that had been covered with more than 30 years was gradually pulled apart. The dust rose with the movements of the warriors, which affected everyone's sight for a while, but it also seemed to add some momentum to the steel monster that saw the light of day again after more than 30 years.
"It's so spectacular! I can't imagine how shocking this thing would be if it fired!" Chen Xin shone the flashlight in his hand at the gun barrel. Looking at the thick gun barrel that could directly drill into someone, he couldn't help but sigh.
Not only Chen Xin, but others also had the same idea as Chen Xin when they looked at the thick cannon barrel that even a man could not hold.
Although we are still using ancient but very useful heavy weapons in modern warfare, with the development of human technology and with more efficient and direct means, the caliber of the artillery has not become larger and larger, but has become smaller and smaller.
Of course, this did not reduce the power of the artillery, but made it increasingly difficult for people to see how spectacular the fire of cannons above 150mm caliber is.
In front of us, there were six super cannons that could only be installed on battleships or large fortresses in the past.
"Speaking of this thing, do you have shells? Can you try it?" Chen Xin looked at the officer beside him and asked him with great enthusiasm: "Since I'm here to try to bring this thing back, it's okay to ask me to check if it can still be used?"
"Uh, this..." The officer felt a little embarrassed, not knowing whether he should agree to Chen Xin's request.
The senior management asked Chen Xin to bring the things back, which refers to the energy crystals on the test aircraft and the chassis of these three land cruisers. As for the gun barrel, it is actually very disliked. After all, the launch box that is equipped with a DF missile is not as fragrant as this thick tube?
The time for two cannons to fire is enough for the DF missile to shoot out and level the target.
But even though he said that, the officer himself actually wanted to see what the 305mm cannon would look like when it fired.
He hesitated for a moment, looked at the land cruiser in front of him, and then asked Chen Xin with a little twisted attitude: "Academician Chen, is this a test that must be done?"
"Well, since you want to take it back, of course, it is better to take it back with all the tails. If the barrel cannot be fired or there is any problem, then it's better to remove it now so as not to take up space when you take it back." Chen Xin shrugged his shoulders and said.
