The Treasure Hunt of an Antique Dealer

The latest website: The dinner is simple, one bowl of rice topped in a disposable lunch box, or an aluminum foil box that can be used in the oven, with a spoonful of braised sirloin per person plus some celery-stir-fried pork.

The supper is exactly the same as tomorrow's breakfast, one person and one loaf with a ham in it.

The new temporary team members also took a little curiosity and glanced at the content of tomorrow's lunch, but they were a bit speechless.

It was braised beef with celery. The cooks on the shore were obviously too lazy to bother, so they simply dismissed them.

Don't complain, it's rare in this beef, and the logistics side can give you some frozen beef dishes. The amount is still quite large, and it is already a lot of face!

Otherwise, you will be late for eating fish and vomiting!

Relying on water for draught is not just talking about it. The group has money and can't waste it. The local large lakes are rich in aquatic products, fresh and cheap, and they must be fully utilized.

It would be nice if you didn't let you try fried bananas or boiled bananas as a staple food-rice and other crops are grown in the plains near the lake, and in addition to the virgin forests in the hills and hills, there are banana forests all over the mountains!

Don't pay attention, eat, although Jiang Hongrong and others have just come from Botswana, where there are more cattle than people, and they want to eat fish.

The boat team drove slowly, not hurriedly. As long as the company has access to railways or harbors, there will be no shortage of fuel. Therefore, Jiang Hongrong, who had dinner, was not fast on this patrol boat out of layman’s ideas. I thought it was due to battery life considerations, but it didn't take long to find out that it was not the reason I thought.

Speaking of this while chatting in the cockpit, Hu Xiaoping told him that the slower speed of the fleet will not delay things anyway, and it not only saves fuel, but also has low noise. The bigger reason is for safety.

After entering the night, you can understand why it is called "for safety": when you set sail, you will see some rowing boats and small sailboats leaving the shore of the lake. The sky will turn black and you can see clusters of lights on the lake. Slightly ups and downs swing back and forth, this is the fishermen using the light to fish.

There are a lot of fishing boats. The fishing technique is simple but effective. It simply installs an oil lamp on the bow to lure the fish into the net.

The big lake is rich in a kind of small fish that will never grow up. It has fewer spines and more meat. The black buddies don’t care about the size of the fish. As long as there are enough, they can fill their stomachs. They are sold well in the market and are suitable for sun-dried fish. Store dry.

There are many fishing boats on the lake at night, and the patrol boat is equipped with a small precision positioning radar with an effective range of 10 kilometers, but in such an environment, if it runs at a speed of 20 knots or more

The question of whether it will affect fishermen’s fishing is of secondary importance. The important thing is that it is easy to break into other people’s fishing areas.

It is troublesome for small fishing boats to crash and overturn. What's more troublesome is that if the fishing nets entangle the propellers, it will delay the mission.

Anyway, if you are not in a hurry, then drive slowly at the most economical cruising speed and save fuel, which will kill two birds with one stone.

Towards the middle of the night, the temperature on the lake dropped to sixteen or seven degrees Celsius, and there was a light rain at the beginning, coupled with the effect of the wind, the guys who came to help temporarily had no idea of ​​continuing to watch the scenery on the deck.

There are chairs and beds in the crew cabin, and everyone is here except for the captain who was on duty, the helmsman of the mechanic, and the radar operator who were just replaced.

Under the two berths were boxes of mortar ammunition, and boxes of individual anti-aircraft missiles were placed above them. They were all veterans. It didn't matter to use the ammunition box as a stool, so they could rest in peace.

Those who had an appetite went to eat some bread. The nine people each looked for a place to sit and have a place to rely on. They closed their eyes and calmed down. They could fall asleep if they were good at it, and the engine noise was not too loud.

At two o'clock in the night, more than a fleet of ships sailed through the lake area shared by Zaire and Tanzania, which is considered to have entered the current war zone, because the Burundian may appear whether it is on the east or west side.

Everyone no longer rests, it's time to be more vigilant, but.

Shi Tao and Lian Jie stood on the deck, leaning on the guardrail. The guardrail was hung with the temporary bulletproof blanket made of Kevlar that was added in the afternoon. The effect of dealing with bullets at long distances is much better than that of thin steel plates of the same weight.

Of course, it is also much more expensive.

The AГC-17 automatic grenade launcher has been installed, and Harrison and Meyer on the other side have just commissioned the GShG Gatling, and they will be watching the scattered lights of the fishing boat on the lake.

"War can't stop the civilians from having to eat."

Shi Tao casually said.

Yes, once a war is fought, the worst is the civilians in the war zone.

At this time, Meyer at the back handed over two Marlboros, which were in accordance with Chinese customs.

"I said you two, can you discuss something?"

Meyer's tone was a little embarrassed.

Shi Tao hadn't smoked a long time ago, and Lian Jie took it. The sniper here quickly used a windproof lighter to help light it up-there were a lot of fishing and fire nearby, and no smoking on the patrol boat.

Meyer pointed to the Gatling gun from this side, and said: "The captain said the attack direction just now. Our fellow has a limited range, and we will carry the target later, so I guess there is no chance of firing.

You guys, can you leave me a box of grenades to enjoy? "

"Haha." Shi Tao laughed at the sound, "No problem, both boxes are okay. By the way, will this thing work?"

"Twice practiced."

Meyer's "Uncomfortable Syndrome of No Fighting or Killing" is up again. He doesn't understand the automatic mortar behind him, and he can't play with the big gun in the front weapon battle. He can only ask this. The two brothers seem to be easier to talk.

Sure enough, it was refreshing and generous enough, and Meyer planned to invite them to have a good drink after going back.

At this time, Hu Xiaoping, who came from the front and wanted to check the preparation situation, also heard this, and said with a big smile: "I said Mayer, don't worry, you can see the situation at that time, it will not be impossible to get closer.

Also, the front deck pillar doesn't need Gatling, it's RPM. If you want to enjoy it later, you can go to the front if necessary. "

In addition to his own high-precision M14 with a few special shots and excellent selections, Meyer also likes general-purpose machine guns. He felt so enjoyable and agreed with one bite.

The fishing boats caught on the night before dawn have docked, and three patrol boats are approaching Lumenggai.

Don’t fight unprepared battles, there was a map of Burundi before. Although it was from the colonial period, it can still be used today. I also asked the cargo crew who had been to the Kalemie city of Rumengue to know the berthing positions of those Lake Army patrol boats in Burundi.

The speed of ten knots approached slowly, and the small radar was able to accurately locate the location of the city dock. According to the color image, it was shown that there were four or five ships of various sizes, but it was not certain whether it was a patrol boat.

Jiang Hongrong would be in the cockpit, Hu Xiaoping frowned, and said to him: "It seems that you have to confirm it visually, otherwise it is easy to hit the civilian ship."

Jiang Hongrong heard what an old friend said, and said: "In fact, it doesn't matter, Mr. Guan said that he is not afraid of making things worse. But you want to be safe, and it doesn't matter if you get closer.

But don't get too close at the beginning. The African army basically can't even play with mortars, but it is still possible occasionally to shoot a ship three or five hundred meters away with a large-caliber machine gun. "

The death of some civilians is considered a hairy, this is black Africa, and the west side of the lake now has tens of thousands of deaths in one day!

"Relax!" Hu Xiaoping said here, he will not do it recklessly.

A well-trained archer shoots with the "Deska" and can intensively hit a car parked 1.5 kilometers away, but the black African side is not as good as the army of stragglers, and they can be beaten up to two hundred meters away. Scattered flowers!

...

The three patrol boats slowly approached the coast of Rumenggai. It would have been dawn, and through the telescope, you could clearly see this city like a huge country.

Lake Tanganyika is a fault lake. The deepest part is more than 600 meters lower than sea level. To put it bluntly, it is a big deep trench between mountains. There are not many plains on both sides, but there are hills and undulating mountains. There are many sections of the lake shore. Alpine.

Lumenge is built on a gentle slope. The terrain on the north side is relatively steep, and the terrain on the south and east sides is relatively slow. This will make the sky in the southeast clear, and you can see almost the entire city from the boat.

They are all low-rise houses, without any tall buildings, and there are almost no "buildings" with five or six floors.

There is a small wharf in the south of the city, mooring several motor boats with a capacity of tens to hundreds of tons, and a little further away there are several hundreds of tons of cargo ships.

This is the goal!

The city hasn't woken up yet. The fish market is two to three hundred meters away from the patrol boat dock. The fishermen are selling fish, and the traders and the small number of early citizens who come to buy fish have arrived.

No one pays attention to the situation on the lake. Life is more important than 800 meters.

It was calm and calm, because there was a bit of water vapor on the lake just now, and the line of sight was slightly affected. Hu Xiaoping simply let the fleet approach to a distance of only 800 meters from the lake shore. This would cause the three boats to form a line and the speed was reduced to 5 knots.

Jiang Hongrong didn't rest. He also found that the six people on the boat were really not enough, so he took the initiative to help on the back deck.

what?

Pick up an empty magazine.

Everyone is in place, and the rear weapon station is waiting. The support of the mortar is very advanced, and the speed coordination has been set. In a small area, the lateral angle will be automatically adjusted according to the set moving speed of the ship.

Everyone had noise-reducing earplugs in their ears, and the No. 1 gunner turned his head to look at the position of the cockpit.

"Cornflower" has a four-round magazine on the right side, Jiang Hongrong on the left is waiting to receive the empty magazine that will fall out, and on the right side, even Harrison and Mayer helped the second gunner carry the cannonball.

All three of them are holding a live ammunition box, which is filled with trigger high-explosive ammunition.

Hu Xiaoping held a red flag and leaned out his upper body, and shouted, "Fire!"

At the same time, the little red flag waved down!

The gunner clicked the firing rod, "Boom dong dong dong" four times in succession, every half a second, four 82mm shells flew out of the muzzle!

The ship hardly vibrates. The hydraulic buffer system of the "Bluebonnet" absorbs the energy very well, not to mention that the gun mount is still sturdy and fixed on the ship.

Jiang Hongrong couldn’t control anything else. He picked up the empty magazine that fell out and put it in a big box at the back. Then, against a wind-like noise, he turned back and continued to move the magazine-he had to be fast, he was the only one who emptied the magazine. , On the right, there are three gunners loading ammunition. This gun will fire 5 magazines first, let’s see the effect first.

As for the noise, Shi Tao controls the AГC-17 automatic grenade launcher right now!

"Boom, dong, dong, dong," a long burst of shots will come in ten, and then there will be a "dong dong dong dong dong dong", AГC-17 even the firing speed of 400, almost catching up with the machine gun.

Cannonballs and grenades roared towards the target, but they had to fly for a while before they could hit the target.

No way, the flight speed is slow.

The continuous noise came from a high place in front. The four-tube large-caliber Gatling was screaming frantically, and no gunshots could be heard at all. It was just "a gust of wind" at all!

The mechanic served as the gunner. All three boats have unified the ЯкБЮ four-tube large-caliber Gatling's rate of fire to low speed gear, 2500 rounds per minute, but even so, 42 rounds of bullets are fired in one second, 800 meters away from the dock. It was covered by barrage in an instant!

For real barrage, 125 rounds of ammunition can be blown by rain in one second. The long bullet chains of these machine guns contain old guys who have been in production for at least 20 years, but they are reliable.

Cheap and reliable, old and tough. The ammunition series that existed during World War II consisted of two ordinary high-carbon steel cored armor-piercing shells, two armor-piercing incendiary bombs and one armor-piercing incendiary tracer as a set. The result is a continuous tracer projectile towards the target area.

One-fifth, the tracer bullets have a visual effect of 500 rounds per minute. In fact, the actual amount of ammunition dumped is five times this!

Burundi’s patrol boats and those motor boats that are equipped with machine guns and used as gunboats are thin shells. They were hit by waterfall-like bullets from 800 meters away, and they all turned into super-large screens at super-exaggerated speeds. .

The Lake Burundi Army did not receive the treatment of Hu Xiaoping and the others. Basically, the Lakers of Burundi had to sleep on a boat at night.

It's not that the treatment is bad, anyway, it's okay to sleep well at this temperature at night, but it will be miserable.

The bullet swept across and passed through the thin hull of the ship, smashing everything inside. The armor-piercing incendiary bomb not only tore everything it could destroy, but also ignited a lot of things.

As for human beings, they will have a broken belly and limbs when they hit each other, and the inside of a few boats is like **** on earth.

The first few seconds were the performances of three mechanics. They all shot at a long burst of several seconds. They were clearly seen in the optical sight, and they were aimed and excited again.

Then

The pier was surrounded by explosions!

In one second, 6 rounds of 82mm high-explosive shells fell, and 12 consecutive rounds of covered shelling, each hitting the hull and the dock position was a violent explosion!

The 82mm trigger mortar shell is said to be not very powerful, but without the blasting effect, the killing radius of a single pair of personnel is 16 meters!

Not to mention the general shelling of machine guns. Three guns can drop 12 shells in two seconds, which is equivalent to being fired by crazy hand-cranked Gatling with a rate of fire of 360 rounds per minute. This projectile is still 82mm high-explosive. Guy.

"Cornflower" said that the accuracy is not good~www.readwn.com~ But this distance is only 800 meters, which is very accurate, plus the density of firepower, it is unreasonable!

In addition to the mortar shells, the three grenade launchers are even more excessive. In total, more than 20 grenades are poured into the dock in one second. This is the effect of exploding more than 20 powerful defensive grenades in the target area every second.

but

Originally according to the plan, the three guys operating the grenade launcher all burned out a box of ammunition and then ceased the fire to see the effect. By the way, the barrel was cooled, but Shi Tao only fired 50 or 60 rounds and stopped.

Lian Jie took a look and leaned over and shouted, "Why don't you fight anymore?"

"Overkill! Can't commit it!"

Through the 2.7x sight, Shi Tao could see more clearly than Lian Jie.

It's all fried.
