Chapter 454 Unexpected Discovery

"Stop first, this won't work!"

In the cab, Shi Quan stepped on the brakes, grabbed the handle and shouted to stop the long queue of vehicles on the swamp, "The pulling force is still not enough, salted fish, where is the salted fish?"

"Getting water," Xianyu responded boredly on the radio.

"When your car's water tank is full, come back and help." Shi Quan thought for a moment and continued, "Belarusian guys, bring your van and the Kamaz over here to help."

Come all?

Elena, who was standing in the distance, looked worriedly at the red pine in the distance and the direction Asak and the others were salvaging. Both of them had been used as anchor points. It stands to reason that such a large pulling force would

Even the tiger pose should be pulled out.

But in fact, the six Tatras that were in creep mode had scratched ruts more than ten centimeters deep on the frozen slush with anti-skid chains. However, under such a huge pulling force, no matter what the towing main force was,

The target was the second target on Asak's side, but none of them moved at all. On the contrary, the red pine tree that needed to be embraced by two people creaked as it was being dragged with great force.

"Yuri, first strengthen the anchor point and add more anchor pins." Elena suggested.

"You make the arrangements." Shi Quan simply turned off the engine.

While other cars were connected to the Tatra with tow bars, Elena immediately organized her fellow villagers to add 20 additional anchor pins to the two salvaged objects. At the same time, she also used wire ropes and flat straps to secure the anchor pins.

The red pine is connected to another oak tree nearby.

Even Elena had never experienced using so many anchor needles at one time in Belarus. No, not only had she never experienced it, she had never even seen it!

It took nearly an hour, and after everything was ready, everyone waited for Vika to bring a few helpers to spread a shovelful of coarse sand under their wheels, and then they all started the cars.

"Irrelevant personnel left the site and stayed 20 meters away from the work vehicle."

Elena reminded her three times in a row, and then shouted on the radio channel, "Attention, all cars, vulgar creep gear, 3! 2! 1! Start!"

The roar of the engine suddenly became loud, and 60 steel wire ropes as thick as a thumb were twisted and extended from the ten-meter-square swamp window, and were finally fixed on the thick trailer hook at the tail of the Tatola.

18 various off-road vehicles that turned on the creeping mode slowly applied force, and the steel cable gradually tightened. After a brief stalemate, the steel cable finally began to rise slowly!

However, before a smile appeared on their faces, the steel cable stopped moving again!

Shi Quan pushed the car door open and looked at the slightly spinning tires. Finally, he had to pick up his hands and shout, "Stop first, something is wrong."

"Yuri, are we anchored to the navel of the earth?" Big Ivan said nonsense after turning off the engine, "With such a large pulling force, even the rat type should be dragged under the swamp.

Moved."

Shi Quan was stunned when he heard this, quickly jumped out of the cab, trotted all the way to the container truck at the end, and quickly climbed up the ladder next to the cab to the roof.

"Ivan, what did you just say?" Shi Quan asked excitedly.

"Rat style? That's impossible! Here..."

"No, the previous sentence! The sentence before this!"

"Uh... navel? The belly button of the earth?" Big Ivan asked in confusion.

"Anyone who is interested can come and have a look on the roof of the container truck!" Shi Quan did not rush to answer, but stood on the roof of the container and waited quietly.

"What did you find?" Elena was the first to run over, followed by Nasha and Big Ivan.

"I know why we can't move anymore"

Shi Quan pointed to another excavation point that was already looming in the thinning fog, "That is the point where Asak and the others are responsible for salvage, and we are now using it as an anchor point."

"Then what?" Big Ivan still didn't react.

Shi Quan pointed to the anchor point and said, "That point is only a few dozen meters away from here. What if the same thing is buried under these two points?"

"the same one?!"

Elena was the first to react, "Train?! You mean there is a train down here?! How is this possible?!"

"How is it impossible?"

Shi Quan asked, "If we draw a straight line along these two and extend northwest, what will we encounter?"

"rail!"

Big Ivan's breathing became heavy, "The northwest direction is the railway line, if you think so, it is really possible!"

"But..."

Before Nasha could say anything, Big Ivan continued impatiently, "Winter railway line! This is a simple railway line laid on the tundra! If there is a railway here, everything will be covered.

OK, as long as the rails are extended in this direction, not only supplies and weapons can be easily delivered, but it can even be extended to the direction of the Luga River! With this railway line, the Soviet army's encirclement pressure will increase countless times!

"

"Don't forget, according to our judgment, this is probably still a bombing area of ​​the Soviet Red Army's aircraft," Shi Quan reminded. "A railway line that is related to the direction of the battle is definitely worthy of dispatching aircraft for bombing!"

"But how to fish this out?"

Elena asked the key question, "Even if the guess is correct, even if it is just a train skin, its weight is scary when it is filled with silt. What's more, we don't know if there is anything underneath.

The locomotive, if there is no locomotive, or the damage to the locomotive is relatively serious, this kind of salvage will have no meaning at all."

“And there’s something more important.”

Nasha continued, "Even if we have a complete locomotive, how can we transport it back? The cost may be higher than the locomotive itself."

After hearing this, Shi Quan and Da Yiwan couldn't help but look at the window opened on the swamp, and said in unison, "The most important thing now is to determine what is underneath!"

"You two don't want to go down..." Elena and Nasha showed serious expressions on their faces at the same time. The explosion at the reservoir a few days ago was still vivid in their minds. Just for a locomotive, is it worth it?

In contrast, Big Ivan, who was even more greedy, answered the unspoken question of the two, "Think about it, a train worthy of bombing by the Soviet Red Army. It may be loaded with food supplies, guns and ammunition, but here

But the territory of the 502nd Battalion, if there are tanks on it, such as Tiger..."

"Tiger is unlikely"

Shi Quan brought Big Ivan back to reality from his dream, "This place is only 5 kilometers away from the railway line. There is no need to take the risk of pulling the Tiger here to unload. It can be done in a more secluded forest."

Having said this, he climbed down the ladder and got off the container truck, "I'm going to go down and see for myself."

"I'll go!"

He Tianlei had already stood under the container truck at some point, and said in a disgusting tone, "If you accidentally touch an aerial bomb when you go down there, you don't know what to do. I still have to do this kind of professional thing."

"Yuri, we don't need to risk this gap, it's just a train. Whether you, Ivan, Lei, or anyone else, we don't need to take this risk." Nasha said almost pleadingly.

Shi Quan was startled when he heard this, shook his head with a wry smile and said, "I am a digger, isn't it normal to take risks? But what you said is indeed right. There is no need to take this risk."

"I'm glad you think of me that way."

Elena climbed down quickly and jumped onto Shi Quan before she even stepped on the ground. She let the other party hold her down and said jokingly, "We are not married yet, and neither are Nasha and Xiaoye. If you

If something unexpected happens, the three of us won't even be able to inherit your respective inheritances."

"I just assume you care about us."

Shi Quan touched Elena's head, and after thinking for a moment, he made a decision, "Let's untie the anchor point and try to pull it out to see if it can be dragged up. If it still can't be pulled up, what would be best?

Come, let’s find a way.”

As he made the decision, everyone got busy again, quickly removing the anchor hook and the corresponding steel cable at the anchor point. At the same time, the long convoy adjusted the towing direction under Elena's command to make it completely

Coincident on the line connecting the two points towards the railway.

In this way, if there are really trains under the swamp, they will be dragged directly above the tracks, and the resistance will be reduced accordingly.

In addition to these adjustments, Big Ivan and He Tianlei have also been mobilized. Together with Elena's two sisters and Xianyu acting as bodyguards, they will go west along the possible railway tracks to explore the swamp and the

In the forest between the railways, if you can find the remaining traces of the railway tracks there, you might be able to gain some other clues.

Under Elena's command, the swamp once again sounded the roar of the engine and the tooth-trembling creak of the red pine that served as an anchor.

This time, the taut steel cable did not hesitate at all, and slowly moved upwards under the huge force. The windows opened in the swamp gradually began to emit streams of smelly mud, and the air pump was connected to the air pump.

The popping sound of bubbles coming out of the anchor hook seemed to make the swamp boil.

Finally, with a crisp crashing sound, something that seemed to be covered with mud in all directions emerged diagonally from the mud.

The Belarusian helpers who were already waiting in the distance immediately started the high-pressure water cannon that had been brought down in advance and sprayed the warm water from the diesel barrel onto the unearthed objects.

As the smelly mud slid down under the powerful wash, Elena, who was in charge of the command further away, immediately recognized that this was a stuffy tank car! An armored stuffy tank car!

Without any instructions at all, the White Russian helpers and the strong Nenets men rushed over at a trot. Risking the risk that the anchor pin might break at any time, they connected the trailer steel cable as thick as a wrist to the chassis of the car and locked it.

As they rushed to evacuate, the other end of the trailer cable was already hung on the trailer hook at the rear of the container truck.

When everyone was far away again, the towing team started to exert force again. The thick frozen soil was slightly broken under the huge force and pressure, but this slight change just allowed the car to rush up with difficulty.
Chapter completed!
