*********************************

The Steelkeep Survivors Radio was launched just two days ago to broadcast the Steelkeep's existence nationwide and attract survivors to join. At the same time, some of the experience of survival in the last days will be broadcast out so that more people can know.

Again, it's about attracting survivors. The effect was remarkable, and the number of survivors who came to seek refuge that day increased, and some of them came after hearing the announcement. On the second day, the number of survivors who learned about the existence of the Iron Castle increased even further. I believe that in the future, the Steel Castle will be known by more and more people.

As for the experience of surviving in the last days, Chen Yuan certainly hopes that as many humans survive, the better. In the future, even if these people are not from Steelkeep, they can still help them share some of the pressure from zombies and mutated creatures.

Moreover, they are now quite ahead of the vast majority of people on the planet, and they don't have to worry about sharing these experiences to make others surpass them. Instead, doing so will greatly increase the prestige and status of the Iron Keep among the human survivors, laying a good foundation for dealing with other survivor forces in the future.

In addition, there is a very important role in using radio, as it is now, to receive news from the main settlement in the absence of a radio station.

The beautiful voice of the female announcer on the radio was secretly broadcasting, and the content was Jiao Yongyan's report on the inventory of weapons and equipment in the arsenal: "According to the information reported by Captain Jiao Yongyan, there is a total of 1 warehouse for storing weapons in the arsenal found at this time. Separate storage of guns, artillery, tanks and corresponding ammunition. ”

"There are two warehouses where guns and ammunition are stored. According to preliminary statistics, there are more than 10,000 Type 56 semi-automatic rifles, but after random inspection, 6 percent of them are too old to be used normally. There are more than 10,000 Type 56 assault rifles, but 50% of them cannot be used normally. There are 1,000 light machine guns in the Type 56 squad, and the same 7 percent are unusable. Type 56 heavy machine guns 00 units, 8 percent of which are unusable. Type 81 assault rifles 000, two out of ten are unusable. There are 00,000 67-type wood-handled grenades, and it is estimated that 5% of them cannot be used according to the appearance. The preliminary statistics of all kinds of bullets are more than 00000 rounds, except for a small number of rusty and cannot be used normally, the rest can be used normally. However, according to reports, there were no 5.8 mm caliber ammunition in the bullets. The above is the stock of firearms, ammunition and grenades. For record-making purposes, this broadcast will be suspended for five minutes, after which the broadcast will resume the stockpile of artillery weapons in the arsenal. ”

There was a pause in the broadcast so that the listeners could take notes.

"Whew!" And Zhang Fatzi couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "Why are there so few weapons, I thought I could equip more than a million people?" Didn't the two countries station millions of troops on the border at that time? And so many are bad! ”

Chen Yuan smiled and asked: "Then you mean that when these more than one million troops go back, they have to leave their weapons and equipment behind, and they will go back empty?" ”

"Uh......" Zhang Fatzi was suddenly speechless by Chen Yuan's question.

Chen Shuyuan explained with a smile: "The materials of the arsenal are generally prepared for the temporarily requisitioned troops, and at the same time, they also supplement the equipment losses of each unit in battle. So it's not really possible to arm more than a million people directly. And not necessarily all spare weapons and equipment will be stored in an arsenal. There must be more than one such arsenal in the Northeast. ”

Zhang Fatzi thinks about it, he still understands the truth that he can't put all his eggs in one basket. However, as for where the other arsenals are, no one knows this, and even Chen Yuan has not heard of it.

Chen Shuyuan continued: "As for the old weapons, it is more normal. Generally, if the weapons are maintained regularly, they will be kept for a longer period of time. But this batch of weapons was mothballed in the early eighties of the last century, except for the 81 bar, which happened to be produced in the early eighties, and it should be considered new when it was sealed. The other weapons may be already very old. In particular, the Type 56 semi-automatic rifle, which was equipment in the sixties and seventies, has been at least fifty or sixty years now. No matter how good the storage conditions are, without daily maintenance, the aging and rusting of parts cannot be stopped. The shelf life is about 40 to 60 years. "Chen Shuyuan has served in the army for a long time, and he knows quite a lot about weapons.

"Then what is the performance of the weapons of the 56 and 81?"

These were all weapons of Chen Shuyuan's era, so he replied: "The 56 semi-automatic rifle was developed in 1956 and has high accuracy and reliability. For a time in the sixties it was replaced by the Type 6 semi-automatic rifle. But later, everyone still thought that 56 was easy to use, so they changed it back. Until the early eighties, it was replaced by the Type 81 semi-automatic rifle. However, the guard of honor now uses 56 semi-automatic rifles. So the Type 56 is still a good weapon. As for the Type 56 assault rifle, squad light machine gun, and heavy machine gun, these all belong to the same 56-gun family of firearms. The Type 81 assault rifle, commonly known as the 81 bar, was developed in 1981 and is even better than the 56 in terms of performance. ”

Zhang Fat Man's head understood a little, but he immediately asked, "How can there be so few bullets?" It's just over 000,000 rounds, that's not an average of 60 rounds for a weapon, just two magazines. Not to mention those light and heavy machine guns, it is estimated that it will not be enough to fight a war, right? Could it be that at that time, our country was so poor that we were not even willing to build bullets? But there are quite a lot of grenades. There are 00,000 of them! ”

"Not really." Wei Chen explained: "No matter how poor you are, you are still willing to make bullets. After all, defend the country. It's just that the storage time of bullets is generally about 0 years. After the guns are decommissioned, the general troops will no longer use them, but the bullets are different, as long as the caliber is the same, they can still be fired. Therefore, these mothballed bullets, before they are about to expire, are usually taken out for training ammunition and knocked out. Even some of the newer old weapons are exported to some backward countries. ”

"As for the grenades...... Wei Chen and Chen Shuyuan looked at each other and smiled: "There are indeed a lot of grenades, and there are only 00,000 here, which is quite a few." It is estimated that a lot was destroyed. According to the original, in order to prevent the invasion of Maozi in the north, a total of more than one billion grenades were produced, which was based on one grenade per person and five grenades for soldiers. I can't run out of them. However, these grenades are still very easy to use, with an effective kill radius of 7 meters and a shelf life of 30 years. ”

"Then it's no wonder." Zhang Fat Man's Head.

Chen Yuan said: "It's not bad to have 00000 bullets, after all, most of these bullets can still be used." But it's a pity that they are all calibers of 7.6 mm or more. There is no 5.8 mm. ”

Chen Shuyuan said: "That can't be helped, after all, we use 5.8 mm caliber bullets, which is after 95." Naturally, there would have been no 5.8 mm caliber ammunition in the mothballed ammunition of the early eighties. ”

Chen Yuan said to himself: "It seems that we still have to speed up the progress of our own production of bullets." (To be continued.) )
