Chapter 972: Observation

With the lawn marked on the baseball court, the shade of trees everywhere, the old American military artillery and helicopter-modified monuments everywhere on the lawn, the road traffic signs used in the US military, and the buildings hidden in the green are all American barracks. If you weren't for the black and thin locals and the fancy Southeast Asia-specific Jeep Vehicle appearance, you would definitely think you were in a local American military camp.

Buck, who also had a digital camera hanging around his neck, looked like a tourist. He used Maxim as a reference object to take photos along the way, and this guy also silly posed with scissors and hands to cooperate.

On the other side, Balayev and Alev entered the shooting range with great enthusiasm.

A four-star hotel is right at the front of this internal base. It was originally supposed to be used to host US families or non-military personnel. It also has a huge parking lot in the US style as always. It is now empty and can be used at most one-tenth of it, but you can imagine the original bustling and lively.

The eastern European area is where the US military wants to intervene in the scope of establishing air force bases. Buck and others have also undertaken the periphery of NATO to investigate whether local airports can be converted into military airports. Now, along the way, Maxim and Buck have smiled on their faces, but they say: "Defense level c, currently there is basically no defense capability, but a battalion can completely protect the entire base... The outer isolation belt has been withdrawn..."

The two people who have been evaluating the scene finally walked through the parking lot and walked into the hotel, and the atmosphere suddenly changed!

American soldiers can be seen everywhere in the hotel lobby!

Perhaps these US soldiers were picked up and dropped off by vehicles, so they could not see anything outside, but sitting on the coffee tea seat next to the hotel lobby, American soldiers wearing camouflage combat uniforms appeared in every corner of the hotel, eating buffets, checking in and leaving at the reception desk of the lobby, carrying huge soldiers' luggage and 3day backpacks, both men and women.

Buck received military medical training in NATO, and Maxim was in contact with the US military, familiar with the signs of the US military, and whispered with a lemon juice cup: "The army soldiers of the Second Engineer Brigade...most of the others are the air force..." Speaking of which, most of the US military's armbands and badges use mascot badges to distinguish hundreds or thousands of branches of the hundreds of units in the entire army. If you are not a person who knows this specifically, you can't tell the difference between these US military.

Buck nodded slowly. It seemed that it was only a matter of time before the US military returned to the Philippines. The engineering brigade came to survey the barracks and considered the degree of future restoration and reconstruction. The Air Force was to fight the front station maintenance equipment and coordinate the US transport aircraft that had never stopped transporting supplies and fighter supply. The air force base was handed over to the Philippine government, but in fact the US military had never left here, but the scale and number of people changed frequently.

He has felt this in the Philippines and Ukraine. Not all countries are related to China. South Korea always remembers the history of being invaded and ruled. The Filipino people are even quite proud of the colonization of Spain and the United States back then.

So Buck drank coffee, looked at the parking lot outside the floor-to-ceiling glass window next to him with a smile, and observed the cameras and surveillance equipment in the lobby of the hotel. With the blessing of economic conditions, the Skynet project that can be seen everywhere in China is now rare in this base where the US military did not have the responsibility for repair more than 20 years ago.

Finally, I stood up satisfied and wandered to the shooting range with Maxim.

Most of the open-air shooting ranges are available, with a long empty room with a long row of cement steps inside to sit at the audience. The short wall railings in front, like pigpens, have doors every few meters, but there is no door leaf, which makes it convenient for shooters to shoot on the stage and on the ground.

After handing over the passport as collateral and paying another $1,000 deposit, Buck and Maxim each received a long and short gun on the gun stand, and a coach accompanied them in.

There are many M1 rifles on the gun stand, but the largest number are the M-type US military's current rifles. There are many brand new styles and extremely bright old products. After all, the only ones who come to play are tourists and enthusiasts, and the current firearms are far more than old-fashioned rifles.

Buck is an old-fashioned combination. He added an M1 rifle in 1911. He deliberately asked for ten boxes of magazines at the ammunition table. Without saying a word, the waiter pulled out a lot of them from the shelf. But Buck picked it up and glanced at it. There was a thin layer of gray on the kraft cardboard box, which was rarely used by anyone.

The m4 rifle and glock17 pistol that Maxi wants are the hottest, all the ammunition is brand new!

Buck made two magazines in a slack look, and the bullets were flying around in a mess. He really had no interest in shooting. Perhaps some enthusiasts were very excited about shooting. They really wanted to vomit, and they ended up quickly. They came out to visit other shooting ranges. Sure enough, they found that Balayev and the others also watched more with guns and beat less.

The ammunition in the entire range is limited to these types. The 1911 and m1 two types of guns dropped by the US military in the Philippines after World War II. 45-caliber pistol bullets and .30 rifle bullets, and then the 103 rifle bullets of the m-type rifle and the 9mm pistol bullets of the mainstream pistols. The others are a small number. Buck also saw a large number of shooting ranges that were played by Filipino locals, basically shooting with m1 rifles. He asked the coach casually and said that it was a training for mountain hunters and militias. The m1 rifles and 1911 were still distributed to this level in large quantities, and they were afraid that there were tens of thousands of them.

Barker felt more confident.

With a smell of gunpowder, Maxim went to the hotel and opened a room. Sitting on the windowsill on the highest eighth floor, I continued to take turns to look at the parking lot with a small telescope.

This behavior continued until the sky became darker, and Buck jumped up and asked Maxim to continue, taking the elevator downstairs to the parking lot to smoke.

That's right, four general-purpose gl8-shaped business trucks entered the parking lot one after another, stayed for a while and left, entering various shooting ranges.

Buck slowly paced through the parking lot. The delay time was about half an hour. The four business cars gathered together again and drove out slowly in front of Buck along the entrance and exit of the base. Buck called the hyena and Ah Nu outside to drive to follow.

Maxim at a high place may not see any clues.

The Bucks in the parking lot is very clear. When the business car comes, the biggest difference is that the shock absorption is very low when walking, so low that the original ordinary business car is almost as close to the ground as a sports car!

This shows that something extremely heavy was being pressed on the car!

According to Buck and his experience, if such a business car is filled with guns, it will not be pressed like this, because the guns are hollow. Nowadays, many of them use alloy materials, plastic handles, etc. The gun itself is not heavy, but the heavy ammunition is heavy!

Because the ammunition is a solid metal bullet and a brass and steel shell, that's the weight!

Only vehicles filled with ammunition will be crushed like this. This is what Buck got when he passed here last time during his trip. He accidentally saw a business car being pressed so hard that he was breathless!

A glimpse left a deep impression on him.

Amman is very familiar with the rules of shooting ranges in Southeast Asia. In the past, he was a small shop with several broken guns on Phuket. Later, he joined the shooting range association. For slightly regular shooting ranges, there are legal regulations that guns and bullets must be separated at night. The guns can be locked in a specially made gun cabinet for the shooting range that has been inspected by the government, and ammunition must be placed away from the shooting range. Otherwise, it would be like a large shooting range with two or three hundred guns that would be rioted or something.

So compared to valuable guns, the shooting range would rather transport ammunition from time to time every day.
