Chapter 436 [Heading to Nanling, Ernst's Shock]
The next day, Ernst Wennecker accompanied Luo Sheng south on his private plane, and after leaving the airport, he took an SUV to a no-man's land in Nanling, where the P4 laboratory is located.
Three off-road vehicles got off the highway and entered a difficult wild road, running between barren mountains and mountains.
Luo Sheng and Enske Wennak sat in the same car, and the latter looked at the scenery outside the window and couldn't help but say: "Building a world-class P4 laboratory from scratch may not work in four or five years." ”
Hearing this, Luo Sheng smiled: "It doesn't take four or five years, eight months is enough." ”
As soon as Ernst Winnack heard what the other party said, he immediately retracted his gaze and turned to look at Luo Sheng in surprise: "Eight months? That's impossible! If you want to build a laboratory in a mountain, it will take at least two years to hollow out the inside of the mountain, which is the result of the blessing of Huaguo's speed, and if it is in the United States, eight years may not be able to hollow out a mountain. ”
Luo Sheng said with a smile: "Please believe me, you don't understand the speed of Huaguo enough. ”
Seeing that Luo Sheng was so confident, Ernst Wenak reserved his opinion, and at the same time was quite curious about where the other party's confidence came from, which was obviously impossible.
The convoy continued to drive for about an hour and a half, when several military off-road vehicles suddenly appeared in front of them, and they were active military vehicles.
Seeing this, Ernst Winak looked at Luo Sheng suspiciously and asked, "Wait, Mr. Luo, why is there an army here?" Have we entered the zone of military control? ”
Luo Sheng smiled: "Don't worry, it used to be, but not now." ”
After speaking, Luo Sheng got out of the car, and after a while, a burly man in military uniform walked towards him.
The other party was carrying the rank of major on his shoulder, and after talking to Luo Sheng for a few words, the other party returned to the military jeep in front, and Luo Sheng also returned to the car, and the convoy continued to move forward with the military vehicle in front.
Ernst Wennack had many doubts in his mind, but he still held it in his stomach for the time being, and along the way he saw some rusty warning signs and some eroded barbed wire, all of which showed the sense of age here.
……
After about an hour, the convoy finally arrived at its destination, and both Luo Sheng and Ernst Wenak got out of the car, the latter looking at a huge mountain in front of him, but he was quickly attracted by the entrance to a tunnel under the mountain.
At this moment, several soldiers went to move aside the obstacles set up at the entrance, and at the same time opened the door of the tunnel that had been sealed for a long time.
At this time, two more off-road vehicles came to attract Ernst Wenneck's attention, and a middle-aged man in formal clothes stepped out of one of the cars, and the other party went straight to Luo Sheng.
The middle-aged man cast a polite glance at Ernst Winnack, then looked at Luo Sheng and smiled: "Mr. Luo, when did you arrive?" ”
Luo Sheng smiled: "I just got off the bus." ”
The middle-aged man, surnamed Chen, is a manager of Huajian Group, and the construction of the Nanling P4 laboratory was handed over to Huajian Group.
At this time, Luo Sheng looked at Ernst Winneck, smiled and spoke fluently in English: "The inside of this mountain in front of you has actually been hollowed out in the seventies and eighties of the last century, you know, at that time, our country was not happy with the two superpowers in the world at that time, and it is because of this that this mountain was hollowed out. ”
"So, it's a nuclear shelter that's already been built?" It dawned on Ernst Winark that in the era of the Cold War, the whole world was shrouded in nuclear haze, and relations between major powers were very tense.
No wonder Luo Sheng confidently said that it could be completed in eight months, it turned out that the interior of the mountain had already been hollowed out, and enough internal facilities had been built.
Luo Sheng didn't explain too much, in fact, this is not a shelter, and no one would build a shelter in such a barren mountain.
In fact, it was a reserve of conventional weapons and ammunition, and before that, tens of millions of bullets and hundreds of thousands of light and heavy weapons, millions of grenades, infantry chariots, etc., as well as a large amount of oil, some military rations, and so on.
This shows the sheer size of the facilities here.
Now all the weapons and most of the oil resources have been transported more than a month ago, leaving only a small part of the oil for power generation, and the internal power facilities are still functional.
This military reserve now does not have the same strategic value as it used to be, and the weapons and ammunition in it are actually very backward, most of them will be destroyed in a centralized manner after they are transported, and some of them can be used as consumables for the daily training of soldiers.
In fact, in the land of Sichuan and Shu, many mountains have also been hollowed out, in response to the slogan of "digging deep holes, accumulating grain, and building dams" in that era, it is ready to fight a nuclear war at any time, so it will leave such a historical masterpiece, and some of the once top-secret facilities in the land of Sichuan and Shu have been declassified one by one in modern times, and even some places have been open to the public for tourism.
As a history education and patriotic education, it continues to shine.
When Luo Sheng went to the capital before, he not only approved the P4 laboratory, but also directly approved this eliminated military reserve base to him, which can be regarded as making the best use of materials and allowing it to continue to play an important role in contemporary times.
But then again, I'm afraid only Luo Sheng can let the country give this treatment, even if some things are eliminated, no one can take over.
Just hollowing out this mountain, not to mention the most important time cost, can save about six or seven billion yuan just by investing.
After a while, Luo Sheng and others entered the mountain facilities from the entrance of the tunnel under the leadership of the major, and a sapper soldier took the lead in entering the central control system.
"Oh, God! Forty years ago, such a huge mountain structure could be built, which ...... It's incredible. As soon as Ernst Winnack entered the interior, he was instantly struck by what he saw, and his voice resonated strongly inside.
The scale and space of this place were at least five times larger than he had imagined, and the impact on him was as if the huge mountain had really been hollowed out.
Manager Chen, who accompanied him, said jokingly in English: "No, we were able to build the Great Wall more than 2,000 years ago, which is a small matter." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone couldn't help laughing, and Ernst Winnack couldn't help laughing, but he was speechless.
Luo Sheng looked at the doctor with a smile: "Now you believe that it can be put into use in eight months, right?" ”
Ernst Wenak excitedly said: "Great, it looks like I have to change the original plan and move it forward for at least four years." ”
At this time, Luo Sheng asked a staff member who came with him to bring a working computer, turned it on, and said: "Doctor, this is a full-scale image of the spatial structure inside the mountain, what do you think about the construction of a P4 laboratory inside it?" You are an expert. ”
Ernst Wenak came to the computer and watched it for a while, then looked around the audience, thought seriously for a while, and said: "The space here is much larger than I thought, and it must have been built with earthquake resistance and flood prevention in mind. ”
Manager Chen immediately responded: "Yes, although this is not an earthquake zone, it was required to meet the standard of being able to resist a magnitude 9 earthquake when it was designed and built. ”
