Chapter 164 Safe Channel
Watching the container truck with the advertisement of "XX Transportation Company" taking away the captive who had almost collapsed after being tortured by Vikal. Shi Quan couldn't help but become more and more fearful of the power in Ludenkov's hands. He even thought about it.
How many people among the bustling crowd on the street secretly receive Ludenkov's salary?
"As I said before, you either have to make friends with the people in this department or stay away from them."
Big Iwan stood next to Shi Quan, repeating his warning in a meaningful way, "The people who come out of this evil organization are either leaders or lunatics."
"Who do you think he is?" Shi Quan suddenly became curious.
"Ludenkov?"
Big Ivan spat disdainfully, "On the day when he can take charge of the Russian Federation, maybe even the bearded gays who have settled on Mars can legally get married."
"I hope he can achieve his wish soon!"
Shi Quan glanced at the container truck that disappeared at the end of his field of vision, "Valeria's people won't arrive for another half an hour. We should also think about whether to go to the ammunition depot or Jurgen next.
Already."
"Of course we're going to find Jurgen."
Big Ivan said without thinking, "Before the news of Orica and the others' arrest is leaked, let's rush over and control this old guy to ask for the secret he wants!"
"No, I think we should go dig the ammunition depot!"
Nasha had a different opinion. "Ludenkov will soon announce that they have captured a group of Ukrainian spies who entered the country with weapons, but this excuse cannot guarantee that Jurgen will not become suspicious. At the same time, it is also
When he is most vigilant, we might as well put this matter aside for now and dig out the ammunition depot while he is waiting for us to come."
"I think what Nasha said makes sense." Big Ivan, who had a strong desire for survival, changed his stance without hesitation.
"That's true. Tigers also take naps. There is no need for us to take risks at this time."
Shi Quan pointed to the nursing home behind him, "Ivan, it's hard to guarantee whether there are any dangerous explosives in the ammunition depot that was surrounded by the bombing zone. So just take advantage of the opportunity now and take Leizi to buy an explosion-proof barrel."
"How about we go to Germany to talk to Jurgen?" Big Ivan immediately gave up. In terms of professional experience, he is definitely a senior in the club.
After so many years of dealing with World War II cultural relics, Ivan the Great has visited countless excavation sites. Ivan the Great has witnessed or heard countless times about the tragic experiences of his unlucky colleagues, and more than half of these unlucky fellows were left over from World War II.
Soviet-German bombs were reimbursed.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Big Ivan had no choice but to jog back to the car and get a handful of green-rusted bullet casings to distribute to everyone.
It has long been impossible to verify who established the rules of this underground black market, but using rusty bullet shells as entry tickets is a tradition observed by black markets across the Russian Federation. As for the reason, I am afraid that whether it is to enforce this rule or to abide by it,
No one understands this rule.
But it is undeniable that most of the rare World War II collectibles can definitely be found in this hidden black market. And for people who come here for the first time, the attraction of this black market far exceeds the famous ones above the surface.
tourist attractions.
Instead of going to the black market to waste time, Shi Quan waited in the parking lot for more than an hour. During this period, not only did he successfully complete the handover with the people sent by Valeria, he even went to the restaurant opposite the nursing home to finish breakfast.
Only then did Big Ivan come out of the black market with the "tour group".
Looking at Elena and others who were carrying large and small bags with a full harvest, Shi Quan, dumbfounded, focused his attention on the trolley pushed by He Tianlei. On this trolley was a large bucket with a diameter of one meter and a half, and there was even a bucket on it.
There are three Chinese characters written "explosion-proof barrel".
"Can you even find Chinese products here?"
He really didn't expect that he could actually buy Chinese-made equipment in the underground black market that dealt in Soviet-German World War II cultural relics.
"The quality of this explosion-proof barrel is very good."
Big Ivan said while using a rocker arm to load heavy explosion-proof barrels into the container, "Many colleagues use this one. Although I don't know if it has any effect on aerial bombs, it can be regarded as a layer of protection."
“Now even the Diggers can’t live without domestic products?”
Shi Quan muttered, the explosion-proof barrel is not used to prevent explosions. Its main function is to reduce the shock wave generated by the explosion and change the direction of the energy generated by the explosion. Generally speaking, it is better than nothing but not much better.
disposable equipment.
The four cars set off again, without the prisoners in the car, and without the elusive stalker. They even used the deal with Orika and Ludenkov's people to eliminate the suspicion of hiding top-secret clues. Regardless of that right now
What did the bad old man in Germany plan? They at least got a relatively safe window period.
Just before lunch, the four dirty Tatras drove back to Shevsk. They found a restaurant in the city to fill their stomachs, and everyone returned to the central area on the north side of the hilly forest.
He deliberately chose a parking spot slightly far away from the two arrows, one white and one green. After getting off the car, Shi Quan and everyone looked at the hilly forest just around the corner. As far as his eyes could see, there were various forms hanging in the forest.
Explosives warning signs on the edge attracted their full attention.
"How are you going to find it?" Big Ivan asked while placing the drone purchased by Nasha on the folding table.
“For such a large area, we must search separately.”
Shi Quan said his plan without hesitation, "What is certain is that the ammunition depot is on the dark side of the hills. And I guess that in order to avoid attracting the attention of the Soviet Air Force, it must have chosen a location with relatively dense vegetation."
"And there will definitely be no anti-aircraft artillery deployed there," Ivan the Great added with a smile, "otherwise it will definitely be bombed indiscriminately by the Soviet Air Force."
"In this way, you and Nasha will have a three-kilometer range eastward." Shi Quan waved his hand and assigned the area containing the two arrows to Big Ivan.
"Leizi, you and Xiaoye are here to guard. Firstly, watch to see if anyone is coming. Secondly, if we find anything, you two should drive the container truck and excavator over as quickly as possible."
Seeing He Tianlei making an OK gesture, Shi Quan picked up the drone and spare battery on the table and raised his chin towards Elena, "Let's go to the west."
Everyone performed their duties, and the four drones took off one after another in their respective areas, slowly passing through the sparsely planted woodland in search of any valuable clues.
"Yuri, I found the wreckage of a bomber here." Less than ten minutes after starting the exploration, Elena was the first to announce her discovery on the radio channel.
"How's the condition?"
"Only the nose is left, the tail and wings are all gone."
Before he could say anything else, Shi Quan noticed a crawler chassis that almost grew into the trunk of a pine tree appeared on the phone screen, "I found a tank chassis here, why is it so small?"
"How small? Could it be a Gloria remote-controlled bomb?" Big Ivan asked with a smile.
"It's much bigger, with four pairs of road wheels, a bit like the chassis of a Czech 38t tank, but where are its armor and turret?"
"Did it get blown up by a bomb?"
Big Iwan sneered at Shi Quan and Elena's speculation, "The number of road wheels is not the basis for judgment, and how high the bombing technology is to blow up a 38t without even leaving the armor, leaving only a bare chassis?"
"I also found something here!"
Nasha said excitedly, "It looks like a concrete bunker! But it's blocked by a tree and I can't see clearly!"
"Go right away!"
The three of them started the drone's automatic return in no particular order, while He Tianlei and Liu Xiaoye had already started the car one step ahead and rushed towards Nasha, who was two kilometers away.
When everyone arrived, Nasha pointed to the small black dot hovering in mid-air that was almost imperceptible to the naked eye and said, "It's right under it!"
So far? Except for Shi Quan, who had been prepared for it, everyone frowned. The distance was probably at least two kilometers.
Elena, who was already familiar with the drone, took the remote control handed over by Nasha, controlled the drone to steadily lower its height, and finally slowly hovered diagonally above the suspected concrete bunker.
Through the lens, everyone can clearly see the dense moss on the bunker and the remaining shooting holes. Even a little further away, they can vaguely see a concrete vent protruding from the ground.
"It seems we have found the ammunition depot." Big Ivan grinned in amusement, "Looking at the completeness of the vents, the ammunition depot probably did not explode at that time, otherwise these vents would have been blown away by the shock wave.
Already."
"What we have to do now is how to get there safely." Shi Quan secretly looked at the forest slope between himself and the two arrows, "At least clear the way first so that we can go and see for ourselves! Lei Zi, are you sure?
"
"It's definitely possible, but it may take a long time."
After saying that, He Tianlei had already held the metal detector and started to push upward from the foot of the mountain. As he walked, he also sprinkled wet sawdust powder dyed with color under his feet to create a safe passage that pointed directly to the target.
This is He Tianlei's job, but Shi Quan and Da Yiwan are not helpless. Taking advantage of the time to explore the road, the two brothers first dug a three-meter-square and two-meter-deep earth pit in the bushy wasteland at the foot of the mountain.
If demining is needed later, all expired explosives will be sent here.
As for the newly purchased explosion-proof barrel, it is not used in such places. It is prepared for possible explosives in the ammunition depot.
Time passed by, and the three brothers moved forward little by little, taking turns every half hour. At the temporary camp at the foot of the mountain, Liu Xiaoye had prepared all the first aid tools that might be used.
As time goes by, the safe passage paved with wet sawdust powder is lengthened little by little, and the small flags planted on it are getting denser and denser. Until the sun sets, the stone spring standing at the end of the sawdust powder is far away from the one in the map field of view.
