Chapter 444: Firepower Test, Everyone is Stunned
"Group B is in place!"
...
Lu Xi listened to the replies of each group and completed his preparations.
He picked up the walkie-talkie and took a deep breath.
Success or failure depends on this last shot.
Wu Qing and Mr. Zhao were staring at the screen on the side at this time. The screen showed a bird's-eye view of the launch from a high altitude in the distance.
The tank was motionless in the middle, like a beast resting.
There were 7 jeeps surrounding the outer circle, and 7 groups of anti-tank weapons were aimed at the tank in the middle.
"Ready, 3, 2, 1, fire!"
Anti-tank weapons from 7 directions flew towards the tank in the middle from 100 meters away.
Everyone felt that time had stopped at that moment. The pressure was really too strong.
Which tank today has the ability to get out of such a situation.
Just when everyone felt the pressure, Liu Sheng thought that the picture was really beautiful.
7 missiles were flying, and soon these missiles from different directions and different altitudes exploded in the air one after another.
Various colors of smoke drifted in the air, like a famous painting with various colors painted by a master.
Except for Liu Sheng, no one at the scene was appreciating this beautiful scene, and everyone exhaled a long breath.
Then they waved their arms excitedly.
"Great, it's really successful!"
"We are leading the world this time! We have another powerful weapon, which can better defend the country!"
"I didn't expect that I would see such a weapon developed and manufactured by our country one day!"
Mr. Zhao happily hugged the people around him, and tears kept rolling in his eyes.
Wu Qing on the side also took two steps forward with relief and patted several people on the back.
"We have been strong, no one can bully us, and what happened a hundred years ago will never happen again!"
After a long time, Mr. Zhao and his group calmed down a little.
He walked in front of Liu Sheng, his hands shaking constantly.
He tried hard to stand up straight with his hunched body and saluted Liu Sheng.
"Thank you for your contribution to the country. Seeing talents like you and such achievements, we are relieved! In the future, it is up to you young people to lead the country forward!"
Others also saluted Liu Sheng.
Wu Qing, on the side, also saluted Liu Sheng.
Liu Sheng looked at the old men in front of him and was extremely shocked.
He originally thought that he had stolen the limelight from Zhao Lao and his group today.
The tanks they had painstakingly researched were completely crushed by him, and they might be resentful and unwilling.
They might have some resentment towards him.
Unexpectedly, their older generation was so open-minded.
They did not have any jealousy when they were compared to others, and some were happy afterwards.
"Mr. Zhao, you are too kind. I am just an ordinary person! I will do my best to help the country become stronger like you."
Liu Sheng quickly stood at attention and saluted.
Everyone saluted like this, and no one put it down.
Mr. Wu looked at everyone standing like this and it was really a problem. So he said: "Liu Sheng, there are still some other tests to be done on this tank!"
"Yes, there are still several more, we will test them later!"
Liu Sheng said quickly, and then gave an order to Xiao Zixiang.
"You guys just fire all the ammunition at the back, the target is the mountain 10 kilometers away!"
"Received!"
The people at the scene were very puzzled when they heard this order.
At the beginning of the test, 21 shells had been fired.
There were test ejections later, and several more were fired.
Almost 30 shells have been fired, and there should be only about ten shells left.
They silently calculated.
Mr. Zhao asked directly: "Why do we have to fire all the remaining ten or so rounds?"
Others also asked: "Yes, there is no point in this?"
"The firepower test has been completed. This is a waste. An ordinary shell costs tens of thousands of yuan."
Liu Sheng smiled and said: "You can see that our vitality is far more than you think!"
Everyone was confused, but they still looked at the mountain more than 10 kilometers away with telescopes.
"It can be fired!"
"Received!"
Then everyone saw the mountain in the distance through the telescope and began to be bombarded.
Very large holes appeared on the mountain.
"Boom boom" sound came over.
One after another explosion, the earth and wood on the mountain were splashed everywhere.
Everyone felt strange in their hearts. The power was not much greater than that of the 120 smoothbore gun.
This doubt was soon diluted by time.
But the subsequent doubts made everyone stunned.
Because the number of explosions over there far exceeded their expectations.
If there were more than 20, they would have thought it was a bit strange.
That's a lot of shells, 50 already.
Yeah, it's beyond the international level.
Yeah?
60 already?
70!
80!
100!
Damn, is this my illusion?
Mr. Zhao turned around and looked at the other people on the side. Those people had very rich expressions.
They looked like they had seen a ghost, their eyes were about to pop out.
He rubbed his eyes again and continued to look at the telescope. The bombardment of the mountain was not over yet!
Has the world gone crazy?
He could not figure it out, so he could only count the number of shells woodenly.
150 rounds, 200 rounds!
As time passed, he had no idea how many he had counted.
It didn't matter, it was a lot anyway.
This lasted for more than ten minutes.
The images in everyone's telescopes finally stopped exploding, and the images were all dust.
"It finally stopped!"
"No more?"
Everyone spoke numbly, and their eyes were almost devoid of brilliance.
This really overturned their cognition.
You should know that the life of a tank's barrel is only three seconds, and the time it takes for a shell to stay in the barrel is about 0.0067 seconds. Then a barrel will be scrapped after firing about 700 shells.
And what they just saw was that the shells were fired continuously for more than ten minutes.
In the tank, Xiao Zixiang and others were also very shocked.
"Captain, this is so cool, firing so many shells at once! If I have to use a tank before a meeting, it will be so uncomfortable."
"I believe that we will be able to equip such tanks soon!"
Xiao Zixiang connected the intercom: "Report, all the shells, a total of 4,000 rounds, have been fired!"
"4,000 rounds!"
When Mr. Zhao and others heard this number, they were stunned.
"No wonder, it took more than ten minutes to fire, so 4-5 shells were fired every minute!"
