It would be a pity for this kid not to be a digger...
Wei Ran murmured as he got out of the tent again, put on his snowshoes and ran towards Saveli.
In such a short time, Saveli was already fifty or sixty meters away from the tent, and the footprints on the snow showed that he had found the trick - to look around the trees.
However, when he walked through the snow and ran to Saveli again, he found him sitting on the snow, holding a headlamp in his hand and staring blankly in the direction under the tree.
At this time, Saveli had dug up the snow under the tree, but what was exposed was a grave made of stones.
The top few stones of this grave have been removed, and right where Saveli is holding the headlamp, there is a bare foot, one wearing a felt boot.
After looking at Saveli, Wei Ran hesitated for a moment, then turned around and walked towards the tent.
"Where are you going?" Saveli asked in confusion.
"Go get the crowbar" Wei Ran responded without looking back, and at the same time quickened his pace.
By the time he came back with the crowbar he had dug out not long ago, Saveli had already cleared the snow around the grave and hung a bright enough camping lantern above his head.
The two looked at each other, and Wei Ran poked the end of the crowbar into the gap between the stones that piled up the grave bags and pushed hard. When the stone, which was as big as a basketball, came loose, Saveli immediately helped move it to the side.
With the cooperation of the two people, the large and small stones were moved away bit by bit, gradually revealing a layer of rotten and frozen pine branches, and an almost rotten white canvas under the pine branches. Carefully lift this piece
Under the canvas, a body is curled up.
Just like the corpse he saw in Saveli's house, the corpse in front of him also maintained its appearance in life.
The only difference is that this corpse was wearing a dyed white smock on the outside, and a relatively thick animal skin suit on the inside. And in his arms, he was holding a gun case.
Gently moving the wooden gun box with the remaining leather on the outside, when the light shone on it, both of them saw the bullet hole made by the bullet in the chest of the corpse's clothes, as well as the remaining blood stains around the bullet hole.
Carefully opening the cracked wooden gun box, Wei Ran pulled out a three-gun box that he had seen Cao Dumb use more than once!
Maozi has ever used a box cannon?
Of course they have been used. Even the earliest batch of box cannons flowing into Northeast China were brought there by the fleeing white bandits.
Just like this thing is called a broom gun in Europe and the United States, and is subdivided into three boxes in China, it also has a name in Russia - "Bolo Mauser!" (Bolo means bolo, the abbreviation of "Bolshevik")
"
Just from this name, we can know that in Tsarist Russia and even the early Soviet Union, regardless of the red or white camps, this gun was also their favorite.
only...
Weiran couldn't help but smacked his lips when he saw this C96 box gun, which was in pretty good condition and was being produced by Mauser.
No matter how good this gun was, by the time World War II started, it was still a bit out of date in the Soviet armed system.
But thinking about China at that time, Wei Ran shook his head helplessly, gently wiped off the stains on the box cannon with his gloves, and carefully observed all the details he could find.
The spindle-shaped hammer and large-area weight-saving grooves undoubtedly indicate that this is an early C96, but what is interesting is that there are actually two different patterns carved on both sides of the magazine.
Carved on the left side is a skull and two large cross-bones. Under this pirate flag-like logo, there are also the words "Kornilov First Assault Detachment" written in Russian! It's just that
, apart from these scratches, there is still white paint remaining on this side.
Just seeing this number, Wei Ran couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. This desperate detachment was definitely famous among the White Army in the Tsarist Russia era.
Looking at the other side, what is carved is the eagle emblem representing the Tsar. Under the eagle emblem, the name I saw on the kettle before is also neatly engraved - "Igor Augustovich Peter".
Rove".
A white bandit who survived incognito picked up a gun again to resist the Nazis?
Wei Ran muttered secretly, and after trying to pull the trigger to no avail, he picked up the bottle of WD40 from the plastic bucket next to Saveli and sprayed it everywhere on the gun, while walking not far away.
The vise still attached to the tree.
Wei Ran took off a glove and wrapped it around the gun body and clamped it on a vise. Wei Ran asked Saveli, who was watching the excitement, for a paracord to tie up the gun. He hid a little further and began to use force slowly.
Thanks to the moisture of the rust remover, the bolt was finally pulled open this time, and a bullet lodged in the chamber was also pulled out - that was what Wei Ran was most afraid of.
Pulling the rope in his hand again and again, until the pistol fixed on the vise stopped spitting out bullets, Wei Ran took off the pistol and put on his gloves again. While walking towards the body, he spoke with a historical
As a scholar, Saveli, a Russian, briefly learned about the history of Kornilov's First Commando Detachment.
Standing next to the corpse again, Wei Ran picked up the slightly cracked gun box. There was a leather jacket on the outside of the wooden gun box, with a screwdriver-shaped rod fixed on it.
In separate small compartments, two 10-round magazines and several used bullet bridge clips were stuffed respectively.
Taking the pistol that Saveli had played with, Wei Ran aimed the light of his headlight at the muzzle of the gun, used the screwdriver-type purge to clean out the dirt and looked carefully. As expected, the rifling of this pistol had been ground.
about there.
Putting all these small objects aside, Wei Ran finally looked at the frozen corpse.
Just like the frozen corpse in Saveli's house, half a century of freezing has turned the corpse's skin into a yellowish brown color and is inevitably a little shriveled.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! But even so, both Wei Ran and Saveli can see that this curled up body must have been young when he was alive. Perhaps he was only sixteen or seventeen years old at the time or even
Maybe smaller.
"Take him back too"
Wei Ran stood up while speaking. He did not choose to take off his clothes to look for clues like he did with the "German Elite" before.
"Could he be that Igor Augustovich Petrov?" Savely guessed while cleaning the plastic bucket next to him.
"have no idea"
Wei Ran shook his head, "Anyway, let's send him back first. By the way, just before you found out, Zoya said on the radio that your father called and said that he had a friend in the town who might know
What, let you take me to see him."
"Then let's go back together"
After Saveli tried to pick up the frozen corpse to no avail, he picked up an ax, knelt on the edge and struck the ice on the side of the corpse. At the same time, he did not forget to say honestly, "Victor
, leave this to me, you go and clean up the tent."
"no problem"
Wei Ran happily agreed to the other party's kindness and walked back holding the pistol and its case.
First, he used a sorting box to put the findings into categories except for the silver coins and square box flashlights in his pockets. Wei Ran then used the vise to unscrew the detonators of the fuses in the iron bucket and put them separately in a plastic lunch box.
, and then screwed the fuse on the grenade again after eliminating the danger, and put it back into the metal box.
Finally, the box of TNT and the TNT were put on the sled, and then he turned off the stove and dismantled the tent.
When he finally loaded all these things into the plastic tow truck, Saveli in the distance also used the tow truck to drag the body with a large piece of ice attached and the tattered canvas blanket away.
Come back.
The two of them took a short rest, then trudged down the mountain with Beria, the dog who had done nothing but had a full stomach.
Along the way, the two of them inevitably talked about the discoveries on the tow truck, and at the same time secretly speculated whether there would be other discoveries near the rocky beach halfway up the mountain.
Saveli waited until he returned to the side of the snowmobile and was busy helping Wei Ran install the battery and radio on the snowmobile. He still did not end his speculation. He was even planning to wait for the summer and bring a few more friends with him.
Another trip with some metal detectors.
"You'd better give up this idea"
Wei Ran told Beria to lie down on the tractor and not move while kindly admonishing him, "Have you forgotten the unlucky guy Zoya mentioned before? He just felled a tree and unfortunately hit the aerial bomb.
half of..."
"Okay Victor" Saveli couldn't help but swallowed, "Don't say any more, I have given up the idea just now."
"Then go back quickly"
After speaking, Wei Ran turned the key and started the snowmobile, and left here at the lead along the still clear ruts.
When the two returned to the small village in the dim weather, Zoya, who had received the news in advance on the radio, had already opened the courtyard door early. At this time, she was cutting a tree from the lake that seemed not far away.
The ice cubes are building a second ice cellar.
The three of them worked together to carry the second body into the hastily built ice cellar, and then buried it in snow. Zoya pointed to the sauna not far away and said, "Go and have a sauna to warm your body.
, everything has been prepared for you.
Saveli, remember to call dad back later, he will tell you where to find his friends."
"I'm going to make a call right now," Saveli took off his gloves and greeted enthusiastically, "Victor, you go in first!"
Hearing this, Wei Ran did not refuse. In such cold weather, there is nothing more comfortable than a sauna.
When he took a shower wearing a pair of big pants and walked into the steaming sauna, he immediately saw a large bunch of bananas, a few apples and a plate of sausages on the table.
In addition, there was a bottle of vodka buried in the ice bucket, and two stainless steel cups also half-buried in the ice bucket.
“I enjoyed this little day so much”
Wei Ran murmured as he scooped up a ladle of cold water and poured it on the hot sauna stove.
With a "chila" sound, the rich water vapor and the faint smell of oxygen hit his face. He moved his shoulders comfortably and sat on the edge of the chair, picked up an apple and took a bite.
Before finishing the apple, Saveli also walked in, poured a ladle of water on the stove in the same ritual, and then said, "I have already called my father and asked, we can go there at any time,
Victor, when do you plan to go?"
"I remember you said when we were on the mountain that your father, uncle Pasha, and of course, Professor Alexei would all come over tomorrow?"
"I think you should not count on the three of them."
Saveli picked up an apple and took a bite of it, chewing it while saying vaguely, "My father was already drunk with the two of them when I called. Can they get up on time tomorrow?"
I’m afraid getting to the airport will be a problem.”
"Already guessed this would happen"
Wei Ran shook his head helplessly, "Well, let's wait for them first, especially Professor Alexei. If they really can't come tomorrow, let's go visit your father's friends."
"No problem." Saveli agreed happily, and then invited him warmly, "Victor, do you want to go to a bar in town later?"
“I won’t go to the pub anymore”
While Wei Ran was talking, he had already taken out the bottle of vodka from the ice bucket and poured a full glass for the other party, "I don't think any bar in town can have a sauna like this one."
"As far as I know, there is no bar in town that has a sauna."
After Saveli finished speaking, he smiled, picked up the cup and clinked it with Wei Ran, then exhaled forcefully and drank the wine in the cup happily.
