Chapter 0930 – Audacious
“Shit, your kid didn’t buy one enough, but also bought two ah?”
Zhuang Rui fixed his eyes on the cannon, dare I say that this cannon is still a pair, two brand new barrels emitting ghostly light, making the temperature in the room seem to have dropped quite a bit.
Although Zhuang Rui is not a military enthusiast, but he once read a book of World War II battleship firepower equipment, know that the diameter of this cannon tube is not as large as his own visual inspection, but the shells at least if the 100 mm artillery, already many small and medium-sized battleships of the secondary artillery.
Although with the development of the world’s military, this original was fixed dead artillery, already can be moved, but the volume of the weight of these two big guys, but it is not small ah!
Zhuang Rui really didn’t know how Peng Fei and the others managed to move this big guy to this armory, this gun barrel alone was estimated to weigh several hundred pounds.
“Hehehe, Brother Zhuang, you gave more than 10 million dollars, I always have to spend it!”
Peng Fei had long expected Zhuang Rui to be surprised, and smiled smugly from the sidelines.
“You also buy something useful ah! If this gun is equipped on a ship, isn’t that looking for a hard time? Guarantee you won’t be able to enter a single harbor.”
Although Zhuang Rui also liked this big guy and had the urge to fire a cannon, he knew that commercial ships could be equipped with light weapons, but with such a lethal weapon as a cannon on board, I’m afraid that no country would open a port to the Xuan Rui.
“Brother Zhuang, it’s fine, I’ve already thought of it, when the cabin was remodeled below, a room was left on each side of the hull, I had the window of the room altered, it’s usually closed, and as long as it’s in use, it can be stretched out with the barrel of the gun.”
From Peng Fei that unit out of the people, almost everyone is a weapons expert, for a variety of terrain environment required weaponry, can be said to be at hand, the reason why he purchased two 100mm caliber recoilless guns, but also has its own considerations.
Ships traveling on the sea, long-range anti-personnel weapons must be equipped, otherwise if you encounter any emergency, such a large area of a ship, it can only stop there to be beaten.
And with these two guns, for some small and medium-sized warships, are with a certain deterrent effect, and those so-called pirates, it is even more unbearable.
So Peng Fei this time out, the main focus on these two guns and some other objects above.
As for these grenades, sub-machine guns and even squad machine guns, they are not rare things in the arms market and can be bought without much effort.
“Peng Fei, you kid fierce, actually whole two cannons to.”
Zhuang Rui heard Peng Fei’s explanation, think about it is also right, there are these two cannons is always prepared, these days are talking about high-tech, in case you really encounter the sea king, you may also be able to go to a cannon, kill them a helmet!
Everyone has heroic feelings, Zhuang Rui is no exception, in the premise of guaranteeing their own safety over the addiction to war, this is every man dreams of things.
Zhuang Rui had just finished praising Peng Fei, the door to the armory was opened, Xiu Luo walked in from outside and said with a smile, “Brother Zhuang, this kid is fierce in places you haven’t seen yet!”
“What else?”
Zhuang Rui spoke out of his mouth, but his eyes were on the three one-meter long crates placed in the corner of the room, he knew that those small wooden crates contained ammunitions in specification, but these three crates were much larger, and appeared a bit abrupt in the room.
Peng Fei walked to the edge of a box, opened the outside latch, lifted the lid up, and waved at Zhuang Rui as if offering a treasure, saying, “Brother Zhuang …… you see!”
“This …… is a missile?”
Zhuang Rui glanced over, his eyelids jumped, in that box, there was a cannonball about twenty centimeters thick and one meter long.
The front end of this cannonball was a bit like the cupola that Zhuang Rui had played with when he was a kid, but the back had four tin forks, it looked like a scaled down version of a satellite launch rocket, of course, it was more like the missiles that Zhuang Rui had seen in the movie, just a lot smaller in size.
“Peng Fei, your kid’s guts are too big, can this thing be whole on a ship? What if it explodes?”
To be honest, even standing next to the shell, Zhuang Rui is a little bit of heartbeat, and his room is next to the arsenal, in case of a little bit of what is wrong, it is estimated that he will have to try to try to sit on a rocket of taste.
And this is a cannon and missiles, in case some people are interested in, they can not say ah! Although this ship is Panama’s, but I’m Chinese!
“Brother Zhuang, this is not a cannonball, this is an anti-ship torpedo, it is the latest Russian APR-2E series miniature torpedo, you can rest assured that this torpedo is controlled by wire guidance plus active and passive acoustic self-guidance, as long as it is not launched, you are just smashing it with a hammer on top of it, it will not explode.”
Li Zhen could see that Zhuang Rui was really a little bit angry, he quickly explained on the side, for him and Peng Fei, playing a torpedo really doesn’t feel like a big deal, if possible, they even want to have a whole military helicopter on board.
After Xiu Luo’s explanation, Zhuang Rui only understand, dare to say that this is in the Second World War in the infinite power of the torpedo, but these torpedoes to be much more advanced than that will be, is by the launching pad through the wire transmission command control guide target.
After launching, the torpedo transmits back to the launching pad through the wire its own status, position, the target’s bearing, distance and other information, and the launching pad sends out remote control commands based on the information returned by the torpedo to maneuver the torpedo to attack the target, which has a better anti-jamming capability.
Peng Fei looked at Zhuang Rui’s face somewhat eased, and hurriedly whispered, “Brother Zhuang, the torpedo launchers I gave placed in the bilge, someone is watching, will not be found.”
In fact, Peng Fei also knew that things like cannons and torpedoes were far beyond the scope of weapons that an ordinary merchant ship could be equipped with, but when he was looking at the goods in Russia, he found these things and was instantly moved.
At that time, Peng Fei and Xiu Luo contacted once, learned that with Xiu Luo’s technology, completely can operate these torpedoes, heart a hot to buy down, the Russian arms dealer also said, these torpedoes are in short supply, after this village will not have this store.
This Peng Fei letter, because the world can produce torpedoes in the country is not much, only the United States, Russia, Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Sweden, China and so few, of which the United States torpedo development level has been in the world’s leading position.
Russia’s torpedo technology, but not under the United States, and even over, so in addition to the U.S. and Russia outside the country, for the two countries of the torpedo is a rush, if not Peng Fei start early, may be which country arms brokers to buy away.
“Come on, buy all bought, others do not bring return it!”
Zhuang Rui powerless waved his hand, Peng Fei is a bold master, now it seems that this called Xiu Luo, is also not very peaceful, two people stirred together, do not know what kind of chemical reaction will rise it!
Look at this room of weapons, Zhuang Rui do not know their own this time out to sea, in the end is to salvage the seabed treasure, or to go to fight bandits and pirates to war.
Anyway look at this situation, if really encountered pirates, it is absolutely impossible to make good.
“By the way, light weapons can be equipped to the security personnel on board, but these two cannons and torpedo launchers, should be tightly controlled so that no non-security personnel can see them.”
After Zhuang Rui thought about it for a while, he discreetly explained a few sentences to the two men, the crew on this ship have been in Macau for a long time, many of them have married and have children, the social relationship is more complicated, Zhuang Rui doesn’t want to spread gossip to go, don’t let certain departments to be stared at.
“Don’t worry! Brother Zhuang, I’ll make the arrangements, when the time comes to remodel a few areas, there will be people guarding them, and definitely won’t let the crew enter.”
Li Zhen patted his chest, the reason why Peng Fei bought this torpedo, which is also not without his instigation, he has at most manipulated the torpedo ship in the army, in a large ship to place a torpedo, this is still the first time.
“Okay, Li Zhen you go to arrange it! Grab this cannon and torpedoes and place them down, I don’t feel comfortable looking at them here.”
Zhuang Rui shook his head, after seeing these two specific shocking weapons, and then looking at those latest American and Russian guns, Zhuang Rui always felt like a toy.
“Okay, Brother Zhuang, you can rest assured! This thing won’t be bought for nothing.”
Li Zhen smiled, turned around and went out to greet the people and started to get busy, the elevator on the fifth floor was straight to the bottom of the cabin, so there was no fear of being seen by those crew members.
Zhuang Rui looked at these two things are a little alarmed, simply pull Peng Fei ride the elevator back to the deck.
After returning to the deck, Zhuang Rui’s mind is still all those weapons and firearms, vaguely remember there are a few bazookas, can not help but ask Peng Fei: “By the way, I just gave you more than 10 million dollars, how can you get so many big guys? Weapons so cheap?”
“Brother Zhuang, more than ten million dollars is not a small amount anymore, if it wasn’t for the torpedoes and those two cannons, I’m afraid I wouldn’t even be able to use two million dollars.”
Peng Fei sniffed, the weapons used in the past were all provided by the state, and Peng Fei didn’t know the price tag, but this time he went out but it was an eye-opener, and he also learned about some of the situations in today’s arms market.
Now the global arms smuggling transactions have expanded dramatically, from 18.5 billion U.S. dollars in 1992 soared to about 100 billion U.S. dollars now, Peng Fei this more than 10 million U.S. dollars in transactions, the other side is not really much to look at the eye.
Like those light weapons, even the most advanced U.S. and Russian submachine guns are only two hundred dollars a hand, if it is the old-fashioned AK47, the price is twenty times lower, as long as ten dollars a hand can be bought.
According to the words of the parties to this transaction, as long as they have money, they can sell everything from grenades, guns and their parts to airplanes, tanks and missiles and even nuclear warheads.
