Chapter 322 Warships without cannons.

"Hurry up, hurry up, the cannon must be loaded onto the vehicle today, the port outfitting has been urged many times"

The loud voice of the engineer urged the hoisting workers to start working.

The keel and base of the battleship ahead have been assembled for a long time, and everything is ready, only the cannon is missing.It's just that the latest 406 heavy gun is a new design, which is essentially different from the previous model.

Therefore, the construction period was changed again and again, and finally the delivery was successfully delayed by three months.

For this matter, the general technical director of the factory was scolded by the military for half an hour every day.

The matter was finally settled, and the technical director of the factory finally breathed a sigh of relief. Because of this cannon, he couldn't eat or sleep well for more than a year, and now he is finally liberated.

He felt emotional.

The sound of steel creaking sounded, and the heavy warehouse door was slowly opened.

"There are six triple-mounted cannons in total, and the turrets have been fully assembled. In addition, there are 406 36 shells, which are all installed in these three warehouses, and there are [-] spare barrels." The person in charge Xiang Jun Said the incoming acceptance officer.

The barrel life of heavy artillery is 700 to [-] rounds. Heavy armor-piercing ammunition with full charges only has a lifespan of about [-] rounds. High-explosive ammunition with semi-charges can have a maximum life of more than [-] rounds.Therefore, it must be equipped with a large number of spare barrels. The rich and powerful United States pre-ordered two spare barrels for each gun at the beginning of the order to facilitate future replacement.

"Thanks for your hard work." The officer was very polite and his tone was very happy.

All the hardships come, these three guns are full of failures. After all, the main reason is that the technical requirements of the military customization are too high. For this reason, the factory had to rework many times and modify the design drawings. In the end, it was only delayed for three months. Very satisfied.

The construction period is something that is used to delay.

In fact, their scheduled delay is within five months.

There seems to be something wrong with the heavy steel gate, and it got stuck, but this is a trivial matter. The steel gate is the most likely to happen to this kind of thing. Several technicians hurried forward to repair it. According to previous experience, within ten minutes at most, it can be repaired. solve.

"When will the next batch of cannons be manufactured?" the officer asked.

A total of six battleships are scheduled to be built, each of which requires three triple-mounted cannons, that is, nine cannons, a total of 54 heavy cannons, but this is the cumulative build of three batches, and only two ships are built in each batch. The second batch will not start outfitting until a year later.

"If we can catch up with the construction period, the second batch of cannons is already being cast, and it is estimated that they will be able to appear on the scene and complete the test in seven months," said the chief technical officer.

"Very good" the officer nodded.

There was a sudden creaking sound, and the steel gate was opened. The pulleys slid on the steel rails, and the several-ton steel gate slowly unfolded. Everyone looked at the warehouse with expectant eyes.

"This is···"

The warehouse was empty, and everyone was stunned.

"Is there a mistake?"

The person in charge of technology froze for a moment, then said.

There are a total of five warehouses here, and they only filled three warehouses, one for cannons, one for running tubes, and one for shells.Although the chance of misplacement is very small, it is the only possibility.

"I put it in warehouse No. [-] yesterday."

The officer in charge of storage and security said in a blank tone.

During the war, the military factory was directly managed by the military, and the people in charge of security were all members of the military, especially this large-scale technical arsenal, which was the focus of the military's care, so there was a full company of troops stationed here. It is this company commander who is in charge of security.

The company commander frowned at this time, stepped back a few steps, looked at the warehouse carefully, and after sweeping his eyes around, said:

"I am sure that the cannon was transported to this warehouse yesterday. You can see that there are still buttons left on the cannon jacket yesterday. I replaced this thing myself yesterday."

Pointing to a steel ring buckle on the ground, the company commander's tone was firm.

"Warehouse No. [-]..."

The officer who came to check and accept took a few steps back, looked at the word No. [-] Warehouse on the top of the warehouse, then looked at the swearing security company commander, and the empty warehouse, feeling an ominous premonition in his heart.

Being in charge of the acceptance of cannons, he naturally has a considerable status in the army. He knows what happened in the army recently, and he also knows what the various actions of the high-level people are all about.

This thing in front of me is very similar to...

"The ammunition and spare barrels are there..."

Squinting his eyes, the high-ranking military official who inspected the acceptance spoke solemnly.

Hope his guess is wrong, he prayed secretly in his heart.

"Warehouse Two"

The security officer and the person in charge of the company's factory warehouse answered at the same time.

Both of them were frowning at this time, with puzzled faces. As the person in charge, he naturally had rich work experience and rarely made mistakes. Moreover, it was almost impossible for the wrong warehouse to happen, and it was impossible in the process. There is this thing happening.

Leaving aside the repeated confirmation process, it is almost impossible for dozens of people to make mistakes at the same time.

The doubts on the faces of the two also made the uneasiness in the heart of the military chief more intense.

Everyone rushed to the No. [-] warehouse and hurriedly opened the door. Just as the door opened a gap, the person in charge of the military couldn't wait to look inside.

This eagerness made the head of the factory's technical director feel a little uneasy.

Looking through the steel gap, the military acceptance officer saw that the warehouse was empty, his vision went dark, and he staggered a few steps.

"Why not, where is the barrel?"

The security company commander roared loudly, his eyes widening.

This time everyone finally realized that the situation was not good. If the previous cannon warehouse might have been misplaced, then this is not the case, because there are more than a dozen wooden bases inside the warehouse.

That was originally the base for storing the barrel, preventing the barrel from rolling and being damaged.

"Go and see other warehouses, first go to the warehouse where the shells and propellant packs are stored"

Pushing away the soldiers who were supporting him, the acceptance officer from the navy gritted his teeth and said harshly.

Everyone rushed to other warehouses in a panic, and after opening the door of the warehouse roughly, the empty situation inside made the naval officer faint at that time.The security company commander was also stunned.

The cannon is gone, the more than 1000 shells are gone, and dozens of gun barrels are gone. Such a heavy loss is absolutely impossible for him to run away. He has ordered a court-martial.

"Check, check for me"

The technical person in charge of the factory gritted his teeth loudly, biting out every word of anger.

Hundreds of tons of cannons, nearly a thousand tons of gun barrels, thousands of tons of shells, such a huge amount of supplies disappeared overnight, there must be ghosts.

"No, I know who stole it"

The naval officer shook his head and sighed, but he didn't explain too much.This matter is to be kept secret.
