Chapter 1725: Ox Fork
The two MG34 machine guns attached to the car are there, and these are the two intact Tiger Kings: Zhang Nan has played with the excavator, which will look at the wear and tear of the tracks, and thinks that before driving into the tunnel, the two tanks will travel a few hundred kilometers at most.
New car, proper new car.
At this time, Joseph and the others came out from the depths of the tunnel and said to Zhang Nan: "Boss, there is still ..."
With his hand stretched out, Zhang Nan signaled "stop"!
"As long as there's not a ticking time bomb going off, we'll talk about the rest later. β
As he spoke, Zhang Nan climbed up the turret of the Tiger tank.
More than three meters, really a bit tall, standing on the top, I don't dare to jump down.
Joseph consciously shut up, the boss seems to have always liked this when he looks at rare things, and he has to come the same, so that the feeling of surprise will continue.
The top of the driver, the hatch on the top of the turret were opened by the bodyguards, everything that should have been in it was there, and those amazing 88 mm shells still shone with a metallic sheen!
The wheelhouse and the fighting compartment were in good condition, and the guys who got into the fighting compartment clicked it, and there were a total of 86 shells in it.
As long as the car is crammed into five crew members, it is fully loaded and ready for battle.
Zhang Nan also went in to feel it, the space is quite spacious, at least larger than the interior space of the T34 and Stalin 2 tanks.
Those two tanks are in their own equipment museum, and their 1.82 meters tall drill into it...
Aggrieved!
Soviet-style tanks do not welcome tall people, and drivers prefer those under 1.7 meters tall, but bean sprouts are not good, they have to be stocky.
This will be in the "Tiger King", Zhang Nan feels slightly better, and he can at least move inside.
The Mark brothers are too big for tanks to get into, but they have their own strengths.
Using the tools that come with the toolbox, the rear bonnet was opened.
When Zhang Nan got out of the tank, Mark said to him: "Boss, the engine and gearbox of this tank are in good condition, and it can be driven after one overhaul." β
Good news, when the time comes, it will be shipped to the United States, and it will be swaggered on the "Tiger King", don't be too cool!
When I got out of the car, the second King Tiger was exactly the same as the previous one, except that it was only loaded with 82 shells, and four shells were empty.
The extra-long shells and extra-long barrel give this tank gun a super armor-piercing ability, and the proportion of the length of the shell gives people a feeling of "slenderness".
In the rear were seven half-track armored vehicles, two Sd Kfz 9 eight-ton and five Sd Kfz 7 eight-ton vehicles.
Three of the eight-ton vehicles are transport types, which are loaded with shells and a small number of accessories for the "King Tiger", and the other few are ordinary personnel transport and towing vehicles.
The machine guns and ammunition on the transporter are still there, and the machine guns are still covered with canvas gun jackets, which once again indicates that this is a planned mothball.
There were no tankers, nor any other ordinary wheeled vehicles, and perhaps the defenders decided that it would be more reliable to flee to mainland Germany further west in wheeled vehicles, perhaps after receiving the news of the defeat, and that it would be better to keep these valuable armored vehicles in the tunnels and mothballed.
The maximum travel of the Tiger King is said to be only 120 kilometers, and the speed is slow, and it is easy to lie on the nest and run away with it?
That's better than riding a bike!
When the Red Army came, the German soldiers who were guarding it at the beginning did not want to become prisoners of the Soviets, so it was the best choice to evacuate to the Sudetenland and the northwest, and go to the occupied area of the British and American troops.
There were also relatively haphazard stacks of firearms and ammunition for firearms in the transport truck, and some iron grenade boxes were piled up on the side of the tunnel wall.
Half a century has passed, and Zhang Nan doesn't want to provoke those grenades, although the possibility of a sudden explosion is extremely small.
Evacuate, flee, bring food and water, the war is over, and there is no need for those German troops to go on the road with these burdens.
It was also German itself, and the Red Army took Berlin, but before the Soviets could occupy the area, the Germans had time to evacuate.
"What's next?"
Staying away from the grenade, Zhang Nan asked Joseph at this time.
"A fleet of assault guns, another munitions warehouse next to it, and two forks in the road. β
Continuing forward, there was another curve, and as soon as I turned around, under the light of a strong flashlight, a German turretless anti-tank gun lined up on one side.
"The nine smaller ones were the 'Stalker' tank destroyers, variants of the LT-38 light tanks produced at the annexed Czechoslovak tank factory, and more than 2,000 units were produced 44 years later.
It was an emergency replacement for the No. 3 Assault Gun, which was severely underproduced due to the massive Allied bombardment, and there was some ammunition for them in that warehouse.
The one in the back..."
"I recognize. Zhang Nan interrupted Joseph's words, "Hunting Tiger, what is this guy doing here." β
"Who knows, maybe Hitler came here to inspect it, and the officers thought that their FΓΌhrer wanted the strongest chariot to protect the base.
We went in and looked, and there were only 20 shells, only half of them.
The car is new, it has not participated in battles, there is not even a single scratch on the armor.
Rather, there were a few of these 'stalkers' that had been clearly repaired, with re-welded holes in their armor, presumably pulled down from the east after fighting and overhauled.
At that time, Vaubuzhkh had a relatively developed machine building industry, which was able to repair such battle-damaged combat vehicles. β
"Well, it's possible, many people didn't expect that the mustache would commit suicide, and this area, as well as the Sudetenland and southern Germany, are still German-controlled areas.
Many people may have thought that the mustache would have fled Berlin temporarily and continued to command the German army here, and that he would have at least a million German troops in these areas. β
Speaking of this, Zhang Nan turned his head and asked, "Mark, how many Tiger Hunters are there now?"
"Three, boss.
The Porsche is home to the Tank Museum in Boveton, and the Aberdeen Proving Ground and the Kubinka Museum each have a Henschel, a 128mm gun and an unbraked version of the Henschel. β
Mark looked very happy, the boss collects old military equipment, and he and his younger brother seem to have another big guy practicing their craft!
The Tiger Hunter heavy tank destroyer has produced more than 80 units in total, and the maintenance of this one in front of you can be started immediately, which is rare!
Type 1.2.3.5.6.7.8, these tanks used, built and developed by the Germans in World War II, the 7.8 type is not to think about it, one dismounts and stops, and the other waits until the defeat is only two immature experimental vehicles.
The other six types, up to now, this big model in Zhang Nan's private museum is complete.
Even the "Tiger" pulled out a rag from a Russian warehouse that had undergone a large number of artillery shell firing tests, repaired its appearance and put it in its own museum to bluff people.
As for other armored vehicles, it is not possible to make up the equipment of the German army in World War II, unless you go to empty the Kubinka of the Russians, but if you have this intact "Hunting Tiger", it will also be super bullish!
