Chapter 478 Bosque Club
The bus started from downtown Minsk and headed west. After leaving the Grand Ring Road, it finally stopped at the edge of a dilapidated courtyard wall at the junction of forest and farmland. But what surprised Shi Quan and others was that this area
The rather large "Gaoqiang Courtyard" is actually equipped with watchtowers one after another, and even the rusty barbed wire fences remain on the walls of the courtyard.
"We're here, let's get off the car!" Elena stood up and shouted a little excitedly. This place was full of memories for her.
"Why does this look so much like a prison?" Big Ivan asked in confusion as he followed Shi Quan.
"This place was originally a prison."
Elena, who was walking at the front, explained, "In the Soviet era, this used to be a correctional camp. The farmland you see around you was the result of the labor of the prisoners who were detained here. Later, although the correctional camp was cancelled,
But this place was preserved and became a prison. After the Soviet Union disintegrated, this place was completely abandoned until it was bought by Mr. Bosque. It is notarized that Mr. Bosque provided help to many people in various aspects.
help."
"I'm very happy that the little angel of Bosque Club can say this"
Outside the bus door, a skinny old man who looked to be at least 70 years old smiled heartily, and even twirled the cane in his hand around his wrist while speaking.
"Mr. Bosque, long time no see." Elena jumped off the bus and gently hugged the old man waiting at the door.
"You are finally willing to go back to the club to have a look."
Bosque, who had the same hairstyle as Einstein, patted Elena's shoulder hard and said apologetically, "I heard that you were asked to leave because of Fat Gary?"
Elena turned around and pulled Shi Quan, "Greedy Fat Gary is indeed one of the important reasons why I left, but I didn't come back because I found someone I like. He is my boyfriend Yuri, a Chinese.
"
"You were the one who dug up the train cannon not long ago?" Bosque took the initiative to extend his hand, "I am Bosque, Alexander Bosque."
"Yuri" Shiquan shook hands with the other party.
"I never thought that the little angel of Bosque Club would be snatched away by a Chinese," Bosque joked, and then casually greeted Valentin, who came down last.
"Bosque, take our guests to visit your club." Valentin patted Shi Quan on the shoulder, "Like you, this young man also has a club. He may not be as good as you in some aspects, but in certain aspects
In some aspects, he has done much better than you."
"I've heard about him, and even more about his Dragon and Bear Adventure Club." Bosque said as he led everyone slowly inside from the parking lot.
While Valentin was chatting with the other party, Shi Quan and others looked at this huge yard.
The spacious parking lot is filled with various types of off-road vehicles, from the oldest Lada to the latest 8X8 Mas, and there are even a few MAZ tractors washing away the mud.

Apart from anything else, just looking at the nearly a hundred cars parked in this parking lot, you can tell that the Bosque Club has made a much bigger contribution to the excavation of war relics than the Shiquan Club.
Continuing along the mottled concrete road in the parking lot, there are huge factories one after another on the left side of the road, and rows of red brick houses on the right side.
What surprised everyone was that there were many signs hanging on these red brick houses, such as "XXX Game Company", "XXX Post-Production Team", and "XXX Data Collection Center".
"What's going on?" Shi Quan lowered his voice and asked Elena.
"Many war game companies or war film shooting companies will come here to carry out 3D modeling or post-production work with reference to real objects."
Elena pointed to the red brick houses on the right side of the cement road and explained, "These small houses are also the most profitable place for the Bosque Club. In many tank war-themed games we play, a considerable part of the data is done here.
Collected.”
Just when Shi Quan was about to say something, the roar of an engine came from the huge factory building on the left side of the cement road. Everyone turned their heads subconsciously and saw an IS-2 heavy tank slowly moving through the green curtain surrounded three times.
Rotate the turret. Everyone stopped and looked curiously at the staff who were busy taking pictures and scanning around the tank.
Bosque, who was chatting with Valentin, stopped and glanced at Shi Quan and others standing at the door of the factory. An indifferent smile appeared on his old face, "You didn't bring these little guys here just to buy a few tanks.
Bar?"
"From the perspective of the Stalin Line of Defense Museum, I really don't need to bring them here." Valentin also looked at the young people and said in a low voice, "But from the perspective of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, let more people
It is my mission to see Belarus’ emerging industries flourish.”
"I almost forgot that you work in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs," Bosque joked, "but I have never heard of any country's Ministry of Foreign Affairs officials using the spoils of the Diggers to deal with international friends."
"What else can we bring to the table besides history and beautiful Belarusian girls? Minsk Automobile Plant?" Valentin shook his head mockingly, "Bosk, my old friend, show them your best side.
!It doesn’t matter even if we don’t reach a deal in the end.”
Bosque used his cane to scratch his back, "You want to attract investment?"
Valentin turned around and didn't say anything after all. He just looked at the old-looking Bosque with a smile.
On the other side more than ten meters away, under the curious gaze of Shi Quan and others, the IS-2 heavy tank, which was still roaring, made various movements according to the instructions under the camera, trying its best to show every move.
detail.
"So this is how the ones in the game are made?" He Tianlei asked in surprise.
"More than these"
Elena pointed to another factory next to her, "It's even more exaggerated in that factory. They scanned the disassembled parts, from the turret to the screws, and every detail was not missed."
"That simulator game?" Liu Xiaoye asked.
"Digital Museum" Elena explained as she led the crowd, "This work was carried out in cooperation between Belarus and Russia in the past few years. I don't know if it is over now."
In order to commemorate the war, you really spared no effort. Shi Quan muttered to himself, but he said a completely different set of high-sounding rhetoric, "This is quite good. After all, there are too few of these big guys in the world. Considering the cost of the museum, digitization
Exhibition is more conducive to popularizing science.”
"whispering sound"
Both Elena and Big Ivan glanced at Shiquan with disdain. This nonsense was obviously meant to fool outsiders.
Following Bosque further in, at the end of this cement road, after passing through a barbed wire fence, there is a parking lot that is no less big than the one in front. However, the configuration of this parking lot is much higher, not only can it keep out the rain
The shed and even the ground are paved with bluestone strips. But looking at the rows of various "World War II military motor vehicles" parked under the rain shelter, it seems that everything is completely over.
Bosque tapped the barrel of a KV1 heavy tank with his cane, "This big guy is the star of our club. Do you want to take it for a spin?"
"Can it still run?" Everyone except Elena asked in unison.
"Not only can it run, we even have matching 76mm artillery shells."
Bosque said this and tapped Big Ivan with his cane, who was about to open the cockpit cover. "You can ride, but I'm reluctant to let you drive it. If you burn its clutch, you'll have to drive it in the future."
Just act like a showman there."
Big Ivan closed the hatch in embarrassment, "I just want to take a look, I won't go in."
"I also said this to a beautiful girl when I was young. Now both my grandson and that girl have graduated from college."
Bosque made a little joke, changed the subject at the right time and said, "All the cannon barrels with olive branches printed on them can be activated. The remaining ones with the Soviet flag printed on them, just like the Soviet Union, are all used to commemorate
history.”
"Can all of us who can move experience it?" Shi Quan asked with eyes shining.
"There is no charge for just riding. If you want to fire a few rounds, all shells with a caliber below 100 mm cost 500 rubles, and those above 100 mm cost 1,000 rubles. Of course, these shells are our reloaded lead-tipped bullets.
." Bosque looked like he clearly marked the price, and didn't take Valentin next to him seriously at all.
The ruble Bosk mentioned was not the useless Russian ruble, but the Belarusian ruble. If you calculate it like this, it's almost one or two thousand yuan for one artillery shell, which is not a bad idea.
It was a rare opportunity, so of course everyone wanted to experience it. They followed the familiar Elena to the dressing room on the side, and everyone put on full replicas of World War II Soviet uniforms. According to Elena, as long as they are willing
For an additional 150 rubles, these uniforms can be taken away after the experience.
Secretly sighing that old man Bosque knew how to do business, everyone put on Soviet uniforms and strolled back to the parking lot. The roar of the engine sounded in the parking lot one after another, and the newly repaired tanks carried Shi Quan and others.
They queued up and left the other end of the parking lot, whizzing onto a rugged wasteland at the edge of the forest that was filled with shell craters and various targets.
Inside the KV1 heavy tank, Shiquan, who was wearing a tank cap, used a familiar rocking steering gear and pointed the gun barrel at a Tiger tank model welded with steel plates two hundred meters away. When the gun barrel stopped moving, Elena turned around
A slender cannonball was taken out of the ammunition rack and pushed into the chamber.
"boom!"
