1599: C1599 The Cannons in the Forest

C1599 The Cannons in the Forest

"We're here!"

The secret project was definitely deep in the mountains, and the same went for the 640 project. The helicopter brought everyone to an unknown barren mountain.

The scenery was not bad. In front of them was a gurgling river. It was moving forward continuously. The mountains on both sides were lush and verdant. A row of houses were built on the mountain, which was the address of the project researchers at that time. Now, those houses were abandoned. The words painted outside the houses were... They were also mottled under the erosion of time.

The old man stood there, somewhat agitated. He was here... He had spent more than ten years... From the 1960s, the experiment began here. In the 1970s, the vanguard cannon was forged. Then, a series of experiments began, all the way until 1980. The project was canceled. People like them who had worked hard in the mountains for more than ten years... Only then did they return to their original units.

Many people had dedicated their most precious youth to this place.

What a pity.

It wasn't easy to intercept a spaceplane in space, not even using nuclear warheads. If the error was too great, the explosion of the nuclear warhead would pass by the target. They had studied it for many years, but they had never been able to solve the problem of this precision.

This ultimately led to the end of the project.

"Where's the cannon?" Dr. Boole would not be moved by these things. What he cared about the most was where the cannon was and whether it could be used.

"There." The old man pointed at the woods over there.

The project of the Pioneer Cannon had been going on for more than ten years, but it had never been discovered by the outside world. It was a good secret project. Where was the cannon? In the forest, of course!

It was the same as the cannon from the World War. Although it was powerful, it was definitely the target of the enemy's attack. Once it was discovered, countless dive bombers would come down to attack.

Therefore, these cannons were hidden in the forest, and it was very difficult to find them. Fortunately, there was no radar during that era. Otherwise, as long as they opened fire, it would be very easy to locate them through the radar.

The cannon designed at that time also used this method. Since no one had been here for a few years, the forest here was already quite dense. The scholar leading the way needed to walk while using a machete to open up a path.

However, it did not take long for them to see an open field just dozens of meters away. Here, the first thing they saw was the tracks.

It was very difficult to adjust the firing angle of the super cannon. This cannon was too heavy. Therefore, most of the time, it was installed on the tracks. It was either a circular rail, or two rail tracks with a right angle. This way, when moving back and forth, one would be able to achieve a shooting range without any blind spots.

In the middle of the railway, the motorcycle had been covered tightly with canvas. After a few years, the canvas was still fine. It was just that it looked a little ugly outside due to the wind and the sun.

This made Qin Guan happy in his heart. If he did not keep it properly, it would be difficult to use the cannon if it was under the sun for a few years. He might have to reforge it. After all, if there were ready-made ones... That would save him a lot of trouble. After all, what he needed was to scare the other party. As long as there was a cannon, it would be enough.

"Not bad, not bad." Even Dr. Boole rarely praised him. It seemed that this cannon could still be used. There were all kinds of problems. Dr. Boole could solve them as long as there was a cannon. When he was in Coconut Jujube Country, they even used oil pipes as cannon barrels. They could use whatever they wanted.

Now, this was a specially forged cannon.

The old man looked at this place and was very excited. Back then, when they left this place at the end, everyone carried out a proper package for this cannon, hoping that it could be reactivated in the future.

There was no need to worry about losing it. No one could come and transport it away.

Needless to say, this kind of cannon, even the tanks, did not move. Every time the war ended, the tanks that were blown up would all stop at the same place, turning into tanks graveyard, telling the story of the past.

Why did no one move?

How could a tank that was dozens of tons be moved? If it was moved back, how could it be thrown into the furnace if it wasn't dismantled? The cost added up was definitely more expensive than building a new one, so no one moved it.

As for the cannon in front of them, nobody could move it away. Just the body of the cannon alone was 155 tons!

"This cannon, how are we going to transport it away?" Someone said.

Everyone thought of the same question. They could not stay in the wilderness to study it. Right now, all the major research institutes were moving towards the city. This way, they could recruit college students and make it easier for them to settle down. Otherwise, outstanding talents wouldn't be willing to come at all. Even if they came, they had to think of a way to transfer them away. They were unwilling to work seriously. If they really worked hard and had results, they would be entrusted with a heavy responsibility. Then he wouldn't be able to leave.

"It's fine, it's fine if we don't ship it away. We'll study it here, Wang Yao said. Now, open it up." Dr. Boole said excitedly. It looked like the length of the cannon barrel. It was almost 30 meters long, with a diameter of more than 400 mm. There was no need to talk about the length of 400 kilometers. After testing the load, the distance of 800 kilometers could be achieved!

As for the weight of the warhead, it could reach more than 100 kilograms. At this rate, it could definitely flatten the sturdiest fortress with one shot. Even the underground bunker that was resistant to nuclear explosions could not block it!

Dr. Boole did not care about the research location. What he cared about was the research subject. As long as he saw the cannon, it was like seeing his lover.1

"This cannon is going to be transported away. If possible, we still need it to participate in our National Day parade." Qin Guan said. Moving this thing out would definitely be a killing machine.

The cannon was the God of War. This thing could not be replaced by anything else. Although it was said that the tactical Ballistic Missile had already begun to develop like a raging fire, however... The thing that could scare people was still the cannon. This thing had shown how terrifying it was in the past wars.

And this cannon was first shown half-officially in some channels, then suddenly shown in the National Day parade. This way, it would attract the attention of the entire world.

If it was slightly attached to its lethality, it would definitely make some people tremble in fear, right?

How could it be transported away and even moved onto the stage of the National Day parade?

Was there even a need to say? It must be the chassis that they produced specifically to transport missiles. That thing was previously just a casual piece of work by Qin Guan, but now, Qin Guan already felt that it was very convenient.

It was very convenient for him to use it himself. Selling it to the outside world was simply the best thing to earn foreign currencies. Other than missiles, it could also play a big role in other areas. With it, he could go anywhere he wanted.

In the future, oil exploration would probably be useful.

He transferred a car over, transported it, and went to his own army's test site to conduct research openly!
