Chapter 642: Arms Dealing

……

After all, the second floor is not like the first floor, and with a beaded curtain blocking the view, the auctioneer who is presiding over the auction below may not be able to see it clearly.

"That's good!"

After fiddling with the iPad and familiarizing himself with its operation, Wang Zheng handed over the things to Wang Qian.

"By the way, is the other thing I asked you to do now have a result?"

"In the name of the boss, I have called the Abu Dhabi Royal Palace. Because the time is too short, there is no news yet!"

Wang Zheng nodded, "Who answered the call?"

"Diab bin Shahbut, who we later learned was the head of the Abu Dhabi Royal Palace!"

After a little muttering, "Investigate this person's information, we may need him later!"

"Yes!"

"Bell...!"

At this moment, a bell rang in the entire auction hall. Attracted by the attention, Wang Zheng soon saw a man in a white robe and a smiling face mask walking onto the auction table from the clear TV screen.

Seeing this, you don't need to ask Wang Zheng to know that today's auction is about to start. Walking to the window, after opening the bead curtain and taking a brief look outside, Wang Zheng returned to the sofa next to him and sat down.

Soon, a fluency of fluent English reached his ears from the speakers of the television.

"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. I'm the auctioneer for this auction, and I welcome you all to this week's auction. After a pause, "Before this auction begins, there is an important news to inform you. … Originally, the theme of this auction was 'arms', but six hours ago, we suddenly received a request from a customer who had a work of art worth hundreds of millions to be auctioned, and he was in a hurry to use the money, so he specified that it must be sold at this auction. So, in line with the fundamental principle of profit. The organizers of this auction have temporarily revised the lots that will be offered for sale today. In addition to the arms that were originally to be auctioned, a part of the art auction was temporarily added. Therefore, the theme of tonight's auction is no longer arms, but 'arms and art'! In addition, I would like to tell you that you must pack your money full today, because the next auction will be far more than you can imagine!"

"Alright, that's all the nonsense, let's move on to the most exciting 'fashion party' of the evening!" accompanied by the auctioneer's high-pitched and epilogue shout, which instantly attracted the attention of everyone present. Of course, it also successfully mobilized the enthusiasm of everyone to participate in the auction and their curiosity about the lots.

"Let's take a look at the first lot!"

Because the auction had just begun, it was also when Wang Zheng's curiosity was strong, and his eyes followed the auctioneer's guidance to look at the wall-mounted TV in the private room.

Soon, a spear with clear water chestnut horns, full of steel texture, and powerful and domineering appeared in front of him.

Judging by the scope attached to it, and the length of more than a meter, it is self-evident that this is a sniper rifle with an astonishing range.

"This gun is called 'Satan's Blade' and comes from the famous American firearms manufacturing studio 'Morrison'. The Satan's Blade has a total length of 1448.7mm, a barrel length of 746.7mm, and a caliber of 7.62mm. All parts are handmade, carbon fiber fixed stock, full-size pickup cardini rails, in order to reduce weight and maintain strength, the pickup cardinny rails and bipod are all made of titanium alloy, which is stronger and lighter than aluminum alloy, and under the premise of ensuring strength, with all the accessories, the weight of this gun is 7.8 pounds. ”

“… In order to ensure the accuracy of shooting, the barrel steel is the latest product of the American steel company 'Vicie Laboratory', which can ensure that the accuracy will not be affected after firing 30,000 rounds of full-power bullets, and after 50,000 rounds, the accuracy can still be maintained at 0.3MOA within 800 meters. ”

In the concept related to the accuracy of firearms, the accuracy of a gun reaches 1MOA, which means that the gun is fired at a distance of 100 yards (i.e., 91.44M), and the dispersion surface of the bullet is in a circle of 1 inch (2.54 cm), while 0.3moa, that is, at a distance of 100 yards, the bullet will be concentrated in the range of 0.3 inches, which is that the bullet will shoot at a point within 2.54 mm every time according to the metric system. This means that even if you shoot more than 50,000 rounds of full-power bullets, within 800 meters, if you want to blow a person's head, as long as you are good enough to shoot, you can still use this Satanic Blade.

“… An excellent gun, of course, also has unique bullets. At the beginning of the design, Morrison's studio prepared sniper bullets for the Satanic Blade, which were armored with lead core bullets, steel core bullets, tracer bullets, and sub-caliber shelling and armor-piercing bullets. The gunner is free to choose ammunition according to the actual combat environment. In addition, in the most critical range, the Satan's Blade can guarantee an effective range of 1300 yards when using a 7.62*51mm caliber high-power bullet. When using a 7.62*99mm heavy warhead, an effective range of 2000 yards can be guaranteed. ”

“… For a good sniper, Satan's Blade is the most suitable and reliable companion on the battlefield. For gun lovers, it's also the most beautiful work of art in the world! Of course, the perfect companion and artwork often have a price to match. The reserve price of the Satan's Blade in front of you is $200,000, and each increase must not be less than $10,000!

Because the original theme of the auction was arms, most of the people who came to participate today were people who liked these 'violent steel'. And the Satan's Blade is indeed a rare sniper rifle, so after the auctioneer spoke, the bidding in the auction hall below did not stop.

"Do you like it?" asked Wang Zheng.

Wang Qian shook his head, "The people of the Ghost Gate and the Black Guard may like it. We follow the boss all day, it is not appropriate to use such a gun. Moreover, I am a bodyguard, Yuanba is a warrior, this gun is wasted in our hands!"

"yes, boss! I still prefer my fists to it. "Yuan is domineering.

Looking at them, his eyes turned back to the TV screen, and after watching it for a while, Wang Zheng slowly shook his head. As a rich and idle man, his natural genes make him love this gun. But after thinking about it, I gave up, after all, private guns are not allowed in the country, and in my own hands it has no more use than as an ornament. In addition, although Wang Zheng has a different interest in the battlefield, he has never thought of participating in it himself.

After about five or six minutes, the hand-built 'Satan's Blade' sniper rifle was won by a bidder with a No. 78 plate for $530,000.

The price of more than double the reserve price is also a good start to the auction. The emotions of the crowd were also aroused.

Soon, on the TV screen in front of Wang Zheng, a second lot appeared. However, this time the lot is no longer the firearm that Wang Zheng thought, but a big guy wearing heavy armor!

"The Leopard 2A6 main battle tank, an improved version of the Leopard 2 series of tanks, was finalized in 1999 and is currently one of the most powerful main battle tanks in the world. The total combat weight is 55.8 tons, the length of the vehicle is 9.61 meters, the width of the vehicle is 3.42 meters, the height of the vehicle is 2.48 meters, and the crew is 4 people. The main armament is a 55 times diameter 120mm smoothbore gun, the muzzle velocity reaches 1750 m/s, the use of tungsten alloy bullets, the penetration depth at room temperature is up to 900 mm, the firing range is 5000 meters, which is the longest range of tank artillery at present. The fire control system is advanced, and the reaction time is 1.8 seconds. ”

"1 MG3A1 7.62mm side-by-side machine gun, mounted on the left side of the 120mm gun, with a rate of fire of 1200 rounds / min; An MG3A1 7.62mm anti-aircraft machine gun mounted on a ring bracket for loader hatch covers, used for air defense, with a high and low firing range of -10°~+75°. ”

"MB873Ka-501 4-stroke 12-cylinder V-shaped 90° angle water-cooled pre-combustion chamber supercharged intercooled diesel engine has relatively good acceleration performance, accelerating from zero to 32 km/h in only 6 seconds. Engine power 1100 kW (1500 hp). ”

"The gap composite main armor has a bulletproof capacity of 400-420mm homogeneous steel plates. The front of the turret is equipped with a wedge-type front armor protection assembly, the inner surface of the turret is equipped with an anti-spall lining, and the track skirts are also equipped with improved composite armor to improve the protection against kinetic and chemical projectiles. The outstanding feature of the Leopard IIA6M is that the protection against mines has reached the world's leading level. ”

After a brief introduction to the performance of the Leopard 2A6 main battle tank, "There is no doubt that the Leopard 2A6 is one of the most outstanding third-generation main battle tanks in the world. And it's guaranteed to be all new products that have just appeared. In addition, we do not accept individual bidding, three cars are auctioned together for a reserve price of $16 million, and each price increase must not be less than $100,000!

"It's only the second lot to take out such a hot guy!" Looking at the various high-definition pictures of the Leopard 2A6 tank on TV, Wang Zheng's eyes also lit up a little.

However, this kind of thing is more of an ornament to him, and he has no intention of buying it in his heart.

In addition, if he really wants to play with tanks, there will be an opportunity for him to play when he has more and more control over ASEAN countries in the future. When the time comes, not to mention tanks, even fighter jets can fly.

In addition to his own reverie, what surprised Wang Zheng the most was that the main battle tank, which he thought might have a relatively small audience, was bidding more fiercely than the 'Satan's Blade' sniper rifle just now.

You know, the main battle tank is not a sniper rifle, and no one buys these big guys back to keep them at home as works of art. Obviously, the purpose of spending tens of millions of dollars to take down these big guys is to make them charge on the battlefield.

If the country buys the Leopard 2 main battle tank, it will do so through formal channels, instead of going through the black market. Obviously, none of the bidders here are legitimate.

"With these guys here, how can the world be peaceful!" Wang Zheng shook his head in his heart.

Although he couldn't see the identities of these people under the cover of the mask and black robe, he could guess that these people were either arms brokers or representatives of the rebels of various countries. 20110
