Chapter 238: Major Discovery
"Brother Chen, it seems empty here." Li Ji jumped up, turned the knife backwards, and gently tapped it with the knife handle. In the end, there was no "bang bang bang" echoing sound, showing that there were other mechanisms on the other side.
"Taozi, go outside to find a sledgehammer for work and smash it open." Liang Chen walked over, and at the same time he bent his middle knuckle and tapped it, nodded, turned his head and said to Ma Tao.
"Okay." Ma Tao ran out in a daze, and soon came back with a big hammer used to smash the stakes.
"Smash from the edge, be careful not to touch the things inside." Liang Chen pointed to the cement platform at the corner and said.
"Don't worry, Brother Chen, when I was a child, my house lived near the quarry. I had been swinging a sledgehammer since I was a child. It was so easy to smash this." Ma Tao smiled, spitted into the palm of his hand, rubbed his hands, picked up the sledgehammer and looked at the cement platform. The thin cement layer on it cracked in response to the sound, revealing a large hole. Several people quickly raised the torch and shone it in. The space inside was not as big as expected. At the bottom was a shelf twenty centimeters above the ground. The whole walls of the platform were lined with wood and wrapped in oil cloth. The moisture-proof measures were absolutely in place. There was a military-green box on the shelf, and lime was sprinkled on it, keeping the completely sealed cement platform absolutely dry. It seemed that the person who built this authentic hiding stuff was very attentive and did a good job of preparation.
"Damn, I'm so depressed. Why are you compressing biscuits again? I'll keep it going?" Li Ji rolled his eyes and felt depressed.
However, this time Liang Chen and Zhang Kai did not speak. The two looked at each other and saw the horror in each other's eyes.
"Do it slowly, lift it out, be careful." Liang Chen stopped and was about to swing a sledgehammer to continue to hit Ma Tao, who was next to the cement platform.
"Brother Chen, how nervous is this kind of broken compressed biscuit?" Li Ji smiled disapprovingly, reached out to carry the box, lifted it up, and suddenly she let out a roar, but she didn't pick it up.
"Damn, what's this thing? Why is it so heavy?" Li Ji was surprised. He knew with just a touch of hand that the box was at least fifty kilograms. He ignored it just now, but just picked it up and didn't carry it.
"Get out of the way." Liang Chen and Zhang Kai snatched them almost at the same time. Each of them stretched out one hand and easily lifted the box out and placed it carefully on the ground.
With the light of the torch, Ma Tao and Li Ji looked down at the same time and immediately saw a red five-pointed star painted on the box. The standard military box made of long wooden strips nailed by the box has been preserved very well for so many years. Even the paint on it has not even fallen off, and it is still brand new. Of course, this is also related to the complete sealing of the cave and the good protection measures.
"What is this?" Li Ji swallowed with difficulty, knowing that this time there was definitely a major discovery. Even the pig head knew that there was definitely not a compressed biscuit.
"Bullet." Zhang Kai said in a deep voice. He had already taken Li Ji's dagger and pried open the box. He saw small boxes inside that were about the same as compressed biscuits. The bread was wrapped with damp-absorbing paper. He took out one torn and sucked the paper inside. There was an unopened small iron box. There was a pull ring similar to can next to the iron box. He pulled it around the box and pulled it around the box. The lid fell off. There were rows of bullets standing there neatly, yellow and looked extremely moved by the man. He counted carefully and there were a total of fifty rounds. There were nine iron boxes like this in a box, which means that there were 450 rounds in total.
"The 7.62mm copper shell pistol bullet is completely suitable for May 4, June 4 and Five Six submachine guns. This should belong to the product of that era." Zhang Kai glanced at it and accurately reported the relevant data of the bullet, which made Li Ji and Ma Tao next to him feel amazing.
Liang Chen was not surprised at all. Zhang Kai played with guns so beautifully. If he was not familiar with bullets, he would be a poor person. He picked up the bullet and took it carefully, "Well, that's right, this is the product of the July 1st Military Factory in 65th." Liang Chen nodded and said.
"Xiao Kai, Brother Chen, you are so amazing. How come you know so much? Why can't we see it?" Li Ji smacked his lips, feeling like an ignorant child in front of these two people.
"Haha, the logo of our country's bullets is mainly painted on the packaging box, sealed on the iron box and the bullet body. However, after processing, no other marks can be seen, but the age and the manufacturer can be seen on the bullet body." Liang Chen flipped the bullet body and pointed to the few lines of small characters at the end of the bullet, "Here, there are the manufacturing factory and year codes for the bullet. If the directions of the two groups of numbers are the same, the factory code above and the year code below is the year code. If there is a decimal mark, then the one with the decimal point is the year code. If there is a set of numbers at the end of 1, it means that there are several types of year codes in the manufacturer, one is the year code before 1953 and
Code names are common, such as "1949", which means 1949. Second, the years and code names of bullets from 1954 to 1960 are different, such as "54" (or A), "B", "Bing", "Ding", "Xu", "Si", and "Zi", representing 1954 to 1960 respectively. Third, after 1961, the year codes are all used in the last two digits. The standard on this bullet is 7165, so it should be a product from the 71st Military Factory in 65th year." Liang Chen also popularized the knowledge of bullets and bullets for them, and Li Ji and Ma Tao were stunned. Unexpectedly, a simple bullet mark has such great knowledge.
"Is it so complicated for a few simple numbers?" Li Ji grinned. Liang Chen spoke so much and quickly, but he didn't remember it for a while.
"It's okay, but the key is that this bullet has been put in for so many years, and it seems that it's useless, right? It's all going to be ruined? No one dares to take it to sell scrap iron." Ma Tao looked at the yellow bullet, shook his head, and was still a little discouraged.
"That's not necessarily that bullets have different storage periods under different technical storage conditions. The zero-bullets that have been unsealed can be stored for one year under the conditions of the ground warehouse. If the temperature can be maintained at fifteen to twenty-five degrees, and the humidity is about fifteen to twenty-five degrees, the humidity can be stored for at least twenty years, and it can be used for at least twenty years. And if it is in the conditions of the cave warehouse, the storage period will be at least thirty years. In the army, bullets that have been stored for more than sixty or seventy years, or even
The ammunition produced during the War of Resistance Against Japan can still be fired. I have seen a box of 7.62 bullets that were fired with the Japanese 38th cover for more than 60 years. The bullets here are so well preserved, they are not opened at all, and they are still sealed with cement in a completely sealed hole, and they are sucked away the remaining moisture with lime. They are definitely useful." Zhang Kai picked up the still brand new bullet, played with it with love, and said casually, giving Li Ji and Ma Tao a small gun class.
"Zhang Kai is right. This batch of bullets can be used. However, if it can be used, the dud rate will probably be slightly higher than that of normal bullets. In addition, the shells are raised and rusted bullets cannot be used, otherwise it will be easy to explode. However, I think the temperature in this underground warehouse is very good, not high or low, the launching medicine should be very stable and in a state of stopping decomposition. These bullets do not have any shells raised and rust, so if they are really used, there should be no problem." Liang Chen nodded and said.
"Haha, it's good to use it. Grandma, I'm going to have a gun this time. Anyway, no one except us knows, today I'll start a meat and have fun playing with guns." Li Ji said excitedly, his eyes shining, and where to think that it's illegal to hide guns and ammunition? Besides, for them, as long as they don't do evil things and don't be evil people, as for whether they are illegal or not, please do it? A few days ago, the Tujiang City and his party had made them deeply realize that in this society, those who are good at doing have shit on their butts, but it's up to them to see if they can wipe it clean and not reveal their legs.
"Come on, how can you be so addicted to guns with bullets?" Ma Tao glared at him from the side.
"Yes, that's right, why are there only bullets but no guns? Isn't this common sense?" Li Ji scratched his big bald head, blinked his eyes, and re-looking at the cement platform that built a circle of underground squares, with green light coming from his eyes.
"Please hold these bullets first, save them carefully, and see if there is anything found there." Liang Chen and Zhang Kai looked at each other, Zhang Kai nodded, dragged the ammunition box aside carefully, and then handed the box of open-sealed bullets to Liang Chen.
Zhang Kai whispered. At this moment, Li Ji and Ma Tao were already impatient to swing the hammer and began to smash the thin cement sealed cover. They couldn't hear what they were saying here. It was not that the two of them wanted to hide it from Li Ji and the others, but that this matter was of great importance and it was not yet time for Li Ji and the others to know.
"The two guns you got from Liu Huawei are not available in Type 92 pistols, but that big Black Star May 4 is fine, and your Bolangning 1911 can also be used. I have seen it. These fifty bullets are well preserved, each one can be used, not dumb or blown, and the production process is also relatively well-established. The military industry of the 71st Factory has always had a good reputation in the last century." Zhang Kai handed the fifty bullets to Liang Chen.
Liang Chen nodded, took out the bullets and put them in several inner mezzanine pockets and put them in. Zhang Kai is right, now it is not as good as before, and these bullets may be used at any time.
In the distance, Ma Tao and Li Ji had already swung the hammer with a clang and spent half an hour smashing all the cement platform that was more than 300 meters long. So boxes of bullets were presented to several people in a shocking way. After counting carefully, two hundred boxes were a total of 90,000 bullets, enough to equip a reinforced company.
