Chapter 1687 Memorial Tank
The eastern part of Ukraine is the industrial center of Ukraine. Even during the Soviet period, the eastern part of Ukraine was also an industrial center. Ukraine's industry is mainly heavy industry, especially military industry.
The three states of Donetsk, Luhansk, and Kharkiv are the industrial centers of Ukraine, but now that the civil war in Ukraine has begun, and with all the war, these three states will inevitably be destroyed by the war.
To put it simply, Ukraine is going to be in chaos in the civil war. What Gao Yang has to do is to rush to transport something before everything is destroyed. The production line that the cleaners want is really the only It is available in eastern Ukraine and is the easiest to get.
"Remember! We are here for business, not war, so no matter what you see, as long as it has nothing to do with us, don't interfere."
Walking on the streets of Lugansk, Gao Yang whispered to Taylor and Jesse beside him, and then Taylor immediately whispered: "Yes, boss, I understand."
Jesse also followed Taylor and said: "Understood, only business, not war."
Gao Yang tugged at his suit, looked at his watch, and whispered, "Why aren't you here yet?"
Although the war has not yet reached the city of Luhansk, sporadic exchanges of fire have occurred frequently in the Luhansk region. Some militiamen and troops loyal to the current government have repeatedly exchanged fire, and the Ukrainian government also intends to send more troops to Luhansk. , but they are still wrangling in the parliament.
The situation in Luhansk has not yet completely entered a state of war, but it has also been very turbulent during this period. Not long ago, someone tried to rush into the police station to seize weapons but was beaten back. In Gao Yang's view, the Ukrainian government still wants to keep the These three eastern states are no longer possible.
To Gao Yang's surprise, there were quite a lot of people on the streets of Lugansk. And there is a tendency for more and more people to gather together, and most of them are men.
What these people are going to do next is nothing new to Gao Yang. He had seen a lot when he was in Libya, but he didn't know about the crowds he saw in Luhansk today. Will it end with a peaceful return home, or will it start a large-scale civil war?
"We can't stay here anymore. Something will happen. It won't be easy to get caught up in the excited crowd. Let's leave."
Of course, Gao Yang, who already had experience, would not make the same mistake. If the situation was not right, he should withdraw quickly. Why wait for danger to come? Although the place we agreed with was nearby, we could have just made a phone call and changed the meeting address to avoid an unnecessary crisis.
When Gao Yang took out his phone and was about to make a call, he saw Taylor saying in shock: "Wow! T-34!"
Jesse looked shocked and said: "Oh oh oh oh oh,
t-34!”
Gao Yang turned around and looked, and then he was obviously shocked and said loudly: "I am Ciao! T-34!"
A T-34-85 tank rumbled past not far in front of Gaoyang. Someone on it was waving a red flag, and then there was a person sitting on the tank and shouting slogans through a loudspeaker. , causing bursts of cheers from the onlookers.
"Can this thing still be used? A replica, right?"
"Wow. I feel like I'm witnessing history."
Gao Yang stopped talking while holding the phone. He clenched his fists and said with great excitement: "T-34. The moving T-34, Fak! I finally saw the moving T-34. This What is it? This is history! It’s so cool, let’s go and see it.”
For a World War II military fan, what can be more historical than seeing a T-34 rumbling across the Ukrainian land? What’s especially terrible is hearing what the man on the tank shouted. Come and see. They actually planned to put this tank on the battlefield.
Gao Yang no longer thought about danger, and he reached the edge of the crowd without hesitation. Not squeezing into the crowd was the greatest degree of restraint he could exercise for safety.
The tank's vehicle number is 237. It looked a bit old, and Gao Yang had no doubt that this was an old tank that had never experienced war.
Gao Yang gently poked an older man next to him who was shouting vigorously. Then he stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "Hello, can you tell me about this tank? Oh, it's really hard. Believe me, they got this old guy from some museum.”
After shaking hands with Gao Yang, the man with a stubble who looked like he was in his fifties said proudly: "Museum? You guessed it wrong, brother. It was once a monument, and it is a monument in itself. He is Where did it come from?"
Gao Yang looked along the man's hand and saw a sloped base.
Gao Yang could imagine what the tank looked like when it was on the base with its barrel pointing upwards, but what he couldn't imagine was that the tank just drove off the base, transformed from a monument, and returned to its original appearance. A tank that deserves to be taken to the battlefield.
"Just drive down like that?"
"Oh, of course not. They took down the tank on May 9 and cleaned up the garbage inside."
"Rubbish?"
"Yes, it's full of cans, bottles, wine bottles, a lot of garbage, but there are no cigarette butts. Otherwise, the tank might have been burned. They took the tank down that day, took it to the repair shop, cleaned up the garbage, and replaced it. I added diesel oil to the engine, then started it on fire, so the tank was driven out to participate in the 59th Victory Day commemoration event. I heard that the tank's operation manual stated that the engine's fuel injection pressure was normal. The value is 200 atmospheres, and when they repaired it, they found that the pressure value was exactly 200."
The old man talking to Gao Yang looked proud, and Gao Yang listened with fascination. Lao Maozi's things are all famous for their durability, and the facts prove that this is indeed the case.
Although he really liked that tank and wanted to see more of it, Gao Yang still hadn't forgotten the purpose of coming. He smiled at the people around him and said, "Thank you, thank you for telling me this."
After finishing speaking, Gao Yang waved to Taylor and Jesse, who were also looking at each other with stupid faces, and after leading them away from the crowd, Gao Yang waved his fist and whispered: "I want to buy that tank! I want that tank, I must buy it!”
"ah?"
After Taylor groaned, he said in surprise: "Buy it?"
Gao Yang said confidently: "Yes, buy it! Man, don't forget what we are doing, okay? We are arms dealers. Is it surprising that an arms dealer buys a tank?"
Taylor said in surprise: "But will they sell it?"
Gao Yang said confidently: "It doesn't necessarily have to be bought with money. I will give them more and more advanced tanks. I will exchange ten T-64s for one T-34. If they are not stupid, they have to sell it to me!" Let’s go and do our business first, and I’ll buy this tank when I get back.” (To be continued.)
