825 The arrival of the era of nuclear scrubbing 5

"Prime Minister!" Seeing Chang Ruiqing and others coming out of the car, Du Yuxin stood attentively and saluted: "Du Yuxin, commander of the Tianhuo Base of the Ministry of Justice, met the Prime Minister, Minister Jiang, and Minister Shi.

Chang Ruiqing smiled and replied: "Fortunately, you have been in this deserted desert for several years. I, Mr. Chang, will never forget this hard work. When the experiment is successful, all the officers and soldiers of the Tianhuo Base will be promoted to the next level."

"Prime Minister Xie!" Du Yuxin quickly stood attentively and saluted again. However, he was confused. The Tianhuo Base is actually a secret weapon test site, which covers a large area and is equipped with a special airport and transportation logistics system. It is claimed that the 10th weapon test site of the Ministry of Armed Forces. However, it is the first time that it has been completed in more than a year. I really don't know what kind of weapon is so valuable. Not only is it a special test site built, it can also bring an opportunity for promotion to thousands of officers and soldiers of the base!

"Mr. Zemin, have both the Germans and the British arrived?" Chang Ruiqing and Li Fuji shook hands and asked in a low voice.

"Professor Einstein, Professor Hahn, Professor Chadwick, Professor Fermi and Professor Aston and their assistants have all arrived at the Sky Fire Base." Li Fujiu reported a lot of names of Nobel Prize winners. Well, he himself won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1934 for discovering three isotopes of uranium and nuclear fission reactions, thus becoming a figure who can be on par with these world-class scientists.

Chang Ruiqing glanced around and saw no trace of a foreigner. He thought that these guys were really arrogant. The Chinese Prime Minister would not come out to greet him even if he came.

"Prime Minister, Einstein and others are not at the base headquarters. They went to the weapons test site to supervise the placement of the test bomb." Li Fuji made a gesture of Suke. He walked into one of the buildings with Chang Ruiqing and others, and said as he walked: "For several years of hard work, it depends on the explosion tomorrow. They all were not attentive. How can they be relieved if they didn't watch the bombs in place with their own eyes? If the Prime Minister had not come here, I would have to supervise them personally."

Chang Ruiqing smiled and said, "How could it not be successful? I have done a variety of experiments and I don't know how many data have been calculated repeatedly. It is definitely foolproof. By the way, how many weapon-grade plutonium-239 and uranium-235 have we reserved now?"

"The plutonium-239 with an abundance of 93% has been stocked with 100 kilograms, and the same abundance of uranium-235 has two tons. In addition, the fuel-grade uranium-235 with a abundance of 3% has more than 180 tons." Li Fuji introduced one by one by one by one. Although the U Engineering Committee is taking the plutonium bomb route, the China National Preparatory Department has not stopped the reserve of weapon-grade uranium-235. The weapon-grade uranium-235 it now has enough to create 50 atomic bombs!

"Can we build uranium fission bombs rely on our own strength?" Chang Ruiqing said.

Li Fu nodded and smiled: "No problem, plutonium bombs and uranium bombs are the same principle. The design is similar. But the uranium bombs are at least half more than plutonium bombs. Give us 6 months to design the uranium bombs according to the gourd. At least 55 uranium bombs and 10 plutonium bombs can be assembled within 12 months."

While speaking, the group had already walked into a conference room. There were several models of nuclear fission bombs on a long conference table in the middle. There were also a stack of documents in front of each chair, all introducing nuclear fission bombs. It seemed that Li Fuji was preparing to give Premier Chang some popular science. However, before he could introduce it, Chang Ruiqing asked first: "Zemin. Can you estimate the number of weapon-grade plutonium-239 in the hands of Germans, British and Americans?"

Li Fuji replied with thoughtful thought: "After 1933, both Britain and Germany established large isotope separation factories. Last year, they also built plutonium production reactors and post-processing factories... The production capacity of uranium-235 and plutonium-239 in these two countries should be similar to ours. If I was not wrong, Britain and Germany would also develop uranium bombs after the plutonium bomb test was successful. I estimate that the reserves of plutonium-239 they now own should be similar to what we have, about 100 kilograms, but their uranium-235 is definitely not as much as we do, and their factories

It started construction and put into production around the end of 34 years. Now it can accumulate two or three hundred kilograms of weapon-grade uranium-235. As for the situation in the United States, we don’t know that they started later and invested on a large scale after 34 years. However, their industrial foundation is good, so progress should not be slow. Moreover, the isotope separation process jointly developed by the British government may have been secretly transferred to the United States by the British government. If the Americans specialize in developing uranium bombs, they should have nuclear fission bombs this year and next two years, but the number will not be more than that of the British and Germans.

In addition, Germany also suspected that the Soviet Union began to develop nuclear fission bombs as early as the second half of 1934!"

"What! The Soviet Union is also developing a nuclear fission bomb!" Chang Ruiqing took a deep breath and his face became solemn. Red Japan was about to be finished, and Red India had only half its life left. If it weren't for the value of elimination, it would have been destroyed now. Then the next one to land the red flag is probably the only one that needs to land! If Trotsky had an atomic bomb at this time, the consequences would be really hard to imagine.

"Prime Minister, it may be difficult to create nuclear fission bombs in less than two years with the Soviet Union's industrial and scientific research foundation?" Jiang Baili whispered.

As the Minister of Arms, he knows more than everyone how high the requirements for the industrial foundation of nuclear fission bombs are for nuclear fission bombs! It can be said that relying on China now exceeds the Soviet Union's industrial strength, it is not enough to develop nuclear fission bombs alone! If it weren't for the discovery of nuclear fission, which had deceived more than 10,000 gas separators from Britain and Germany in the name of manufacturing uranium alloy armor-piercing bombs, I'm afraid that the threshold for separating uranium-235 would not have been touched yet - isotope separation is not as simple as steelmaking and ironmaking. Without the foundation of powerful precision manufacturing industry and advanced materials science, I want to separate isotopes in industrialization, let alone doors, there is no window!

Chang Ruiqing nodded, looking like he was a little over-concerned. Although the Soviet Union finally became a nuclear power in his previous life, it happened after acquiring a large number of German engineering and technical personnel. Later, in history, the industrial technology of East Germany and Czechoslovakia was still very advanced.

Jiang Baili continued: "And uranium ore is needed to develop nuclear fission bombs. The Central Asian Front once discovered a uranium mine called Tabosari near Tashkent in Central Asia. According to the confession of the Soviet engineers captured at that time, the mine was the only uranium mine in the Soviet Union at that time. Before we occupied it, it produced a total of ore that could extract 100 tons of metal uranium. With such a little metal uranium, it could not extract much uranium-235."

"Uranium ore is not a problem. The Soviet Union's territory is still very large, and there will always be uranium ore." Chang Ruiqing frowned and said to himself: "It seems that the process of destroying the Soviet Union needs to be accelerated. Otherwise, even if the Soviet Union has nuclear bombs, it would be a big problem to have a few 'dirty bombs'. And it cannot allow the Russians who migrate to Australia in the future to have the ability to create atomic bombs. Otherwise, it will always be a problem!"

When Chang Ruiqing fell into deep thought, Deputy Chief Chen Xinrui appeared at the door of the conference room: "Prime Minister, the Ministry of Defense has just transferred a secret message from our delegation to Germany. Marshal Goreen, the commander-in-chief of the Luftwaffe, will come to the Tianhuo Base in person to watch the nuclear fission bomb test explosion."

Fatty Golin is going to see the killing weapon to test it out? A cruel smile appeared on the corner of Chang Ruiqing's mouth. He thought to himself: "After watching it, I will probably discuss with myself how to use atomic bombs to massacre the Soviet people, right?"

...

Rumble...

An unimaginable huge fireball appeared in the test site in a place deep in the Taklamakan Desert. This is probably the largest artificial fireball since written records, with a diameter of at least a few kilometers! Its central temperature is as high as tens of millions of degrees!

Whether it was Einstein, Hahn, Chadwick, Fermi, Aston and Li Fuji who developed this fireball, or the National Defense Forces military police responsible for alerting the Tianhuo Weapon Testing Field, or even Chang Ruiqing and Gorene who hid in a reinforced concrete fortress dozens of kilometers away from the nuclear test site, watching the nuclear explosion with special radiation-proof glasses, they were all shocked by this huge fireball, no matter who it was. Even Chang Ruiqing, who had memories of his previous life, had seen countless atomic bomb explosions on the TV, it was the first time he had witnessed a real atomic bomb explosion with his own eyes. This feeling can only be described in one word.

The sky collapses and the earth breaks!

Yes, even if the charge of this plutonium bomb is only 30 kilograms of plutonium-239 with an abundance of 93%, and due to the design defects, at most one-third of the plutonium-239 has completed the nuclear fission reaction, and the nuclear explosion equivalent produced is only equivalent to tens of thousands of tons of tnt explosives, but this power is unimaginable to everyone in this time and space.

The nuclear explosion generated high temperatures of tens of millions of degrees and tens of billions of atmospheric pressures, causing a 30-meter-high iron tower to be basically melted into gas and formed a huge bomb crater on the ground. The smoke and dust rising from the nuclear explosion were like clouds hanging in the sky, which was extremely terrifying. Within a radius of 400 meters, sand and stone were melted into yellow-green glass-like substances, and within a radius of 1,600 meters, all the test animals died.

The fireball that emitted the most dazzling light in the world quickly turned into a dark brown smoke ball and continued to expand. This is the head of the legendary mushroom cloud. At the same time, after the nuclear explosion, the high temperature formed a powerful upward airflow to bring the dust, gravel, etc. on the ground into the air, forming a thick and elongating dust column. When this "pillar" quickly became one with the mushroom head in the air, it formed an external scene unique to the nuclear explosion - mushroom-like smoke clouds.

When the mushroom clouds rose, Chang Ruiqing's eyes had quietly shifted to the faces of others in the bunker. He saw Einstein, the chief designer of the space-time atomic bomb, whether because of excessive tension or inability to bear the condemnation of conscience, his face became extremely pale and haggard, and he looked almost on the verge of collapse.

Italian scientist Fermi faced the bomb in the distance, but closed his eyes so tightly that he did not dare to open it. He kept drawing crosses on his chest, muttering words, as if asking God for forgiveness... In fact, he was repeatedly saying the same sentence in Italian: "Anyway, this is an outstanding achievement in physics after all..."

At this time, Li Fuji of China had already rushed out of the bunker as if no one was around and got on a tracked armored vehicle to check the explosion effect. The power of the explosion was far greater than his original imagination. It was nearly 10 times larger than his previous estimate (after calculation, the power of this atomic bomb explosion was about 16,000 to 18,000 tons of tnt explosives).

When Chang Ruiqing's eyes turned to the super fat man Hermann Gorene, he found that the other party was staring at him with his eyes wide open.

"Mr. Prime Minister. It seems that we have a super weapon that is enough to destroy all enemies!" The Luftwaffe commander seemed to have recovered from the shock of witnessing the atomic bomb explosion, and said with a smile on his face: "If Trotsky and Takeda saw this, they would probably kneel down on the spot and surrender to our two countries?"

Kneel down and surrender? That is the great leader of GCism. How could they surrender?

Chang Ruiqing smiled faintly and asked in German: "Marson Marshal, I think the German nuclear fission bomb is managed by the Air Force, right?"

The fat man nodded. Of course, the nuclear bomb belongs to the Air Force, and this is not something the Army can use. The 3-ton nuclear fission bomb cannot be bombed with cannons, right?

"Do you have any advice for nuclear fission bombs?"

Of course there are suggestions, otherwise Fatty Goren would not have traveled thousands of miles to the desert in China to see the nuclear bomb explosion. However, this suggestion is not convenient for a group of scientists to speak. Fatty looked around, and Chang Ruiqing understood what he meant, made a request gesture to the exit of the bunker, and then personally guided the way forward.

Just in a small, two-story brick-and-wood building next to the reinforced concrete bunker, the Tianhuo Base Command has prepared a confidential conference room specifically for Chang Ruiqing and Gorein. There, a Soviet map was already hanging on the wall. Lieutenant General Shi Jianfei, chief of staff of the Chinese Air Force, and Jiang Baili, the Minister of Preparation of the Central Air Force, have arrived here first.

When the two saw Chang Ruiqing and Goring walked in, they stood at the sight of the military salute. Chang Ruiqing was not wearing military uniforms today, so they nodded and returned the salute. Fat Goring returned a salute - this is the latest military salute implemented by the German Wehrmacht, which means that Germany and the people are above everything else, but they did not shout the famous "Hi! Hitler!"

The four people gathered around the map. Gorin found that this map was an ordinary Sino-Soviet and Germany battlefield situation map. The map used red and blue pencils to draw the latest military dividing line, and circled dozens of major major cities and industrial centers in the Soviet Union with red pencils. It was obvious that these cities were listed as targets for nuclear fission bombs!

Since the process of studying atomic bombs in this time and space is relatively long, and the industrialization of isotope separation technology has made early breakthroughs, China, Britain and Germany have built large isotope separation factories. Now the three countries have a lot of reserves of high-concentration plutonium-239 and uranium-235 that can be used to make atomic bombs, which is estimated to be enough to assemble 70 to 80 atomic bombs, so it can carry out a large-scale nuclear strike against the Soviet Union... According to Chang Ruiqing's idea, the revolutionary will of the Soviet Union was harder than granite. To blow until they surrender, they had to throw at least 50 to 100 atomic bombs. They had to wash all the large and medium-sized cities of the Soviet Union and kill 10 to 20 million innocent civilians. It is estimated that it would be possible to shake the basis of the Soviet Union's GCD rule.

However, the fat Gorene's idea seemed to be different from Chang Ruiqing. His eyes did not stay in the Soviet cities circled by red pencils for too long, but turned directly to the military dividing line between the Soviet Union and Germany. In the 1935 war, Germany did not make much progress on the Soviet-German battlefield, and the current front line remained on the Vilnius-Minsk-Vinnica-Chicinau. In the winter just passed, the Germans were desperately there.

To assemble troops, the map drawn by the Chinese does not indicate the deployment of the German army, but the fat Gorene knew that the German, Italy, Romania, Bulgaria, and Yugoslavia, which now have more than 300 divisions, are deployed on this front! If the air force and logistics forces are included, the total force has exceeded 6 million! It also has more than 20,000 cannons, 15,000 tanks, attack artillery, and 10,000 aircraft.

According to the reconnaissance of the German intelligence department, their opponents have at least 500 Soviet infantry divisions and more than 30 Soviet tank troops, with a total force of more than 10 million! They have no less than 20,000 cannons, at least 6,000 tanks, and a small number of aircraft, but more than 3,000 aircraft. In addition, there are armed Red Guards with more than 10 million people ready to fight the invading imperialist army at any time! In order to defend the Soviet GCD and Soviet regimes, almost every Soviet who can take up weapons has been organized. Even if Germany now has a terrifying weapon like nuclear fission bombs, Goring did not think Germany could easily defeat a super war machine like the Soviet Union!

Because there are not enough nuclear fission bombs in the arsenal of the German Wehrmacht to kill all the Soviets who are ready to resist to the end. According to the estimates of the General Staff of the German Wehrmacht, the current Soviet Union can mobilize no more than 40 million people to fight under extreme circumstances. If a nuclear fission bomb can kill 100,000 people, at least 400 such bombs are needed to kill all so many enemies.

But the problem is that the Germans only have plutonium-239 that can assemble 5 nuclear fission bombs and uranium-235 that can assemble 5 nuclear fission bombs. The British may have the same amount of plutonium and uranium, but these British people may not be willing to use them for this war unless there is a sufficient price... During this period, British Prime Minister Churchill's attitude on Australia and Canada has become tough. It seems that this fat man is already making a small plan to revive the British Empire after knowing that Britain is about to master the nuclear fission bomb!

Since we cannot ask Britain for help, we can only find a way to let China use nuclear fission bombs for the European battlefield. After all, they are the biggest beneficiaries of the destruction of the Soviet Union.

Thinking of this, the fat man Gorin's expression was already solemn, and he looked at Chang Ruiqing with bright eyes: "Prime Minister, I think you know very well how great the destruction of the Soviet Union is for our two countries. And you must know that the Soviet Union has been transformed into a super war machine by the Soviet GCD. All their resources and every citizen are serving this war machine. If we want to obtain a broad living space from the Soviet Union, we should do our best to fight together and defeat this extremely evil enemy, and the faster the better... Because as far as we know, Trotsky instructed the Soviet scientific research department as early as 1934, we don't know how far the Soviets have gone in this regard? But I estimate that if we cannot eliminate the Soviet Union within the next 12 months, they will likely have nuclear fission bombs. At that time, our troubles will be very great!"

Chang Ruiqing has already understood the subtext in Gorene's words - you Chinese should quickly take out all nuclear fission bombs and so on! If the Soviet Union cannot be destroyed in time, and when the Soviet Union also creates nuclear fission bombs, the troubles between our two countries will be endless!

He smiled slightly and nodded without objection: "Marson Marshal, I fully agree with your meaning. We must destroy the Soviet Union in 1936!" He waved his fists vigorously: "It is a bit difficult to achieve this goal without a nuclear fission bomb. After all, the Russian nation's will to resist is quite tenacious, and Emperor Napoleon of the past could not conquer them. But now we have this super weapon, maybe just choose one or two medium-sized cities to show their power, the Russians will bow their knees and surrender...Marson Marshal, where do you think we should put the nuclear fission bomb?"

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, are you talking about bombing Soviet cities with nuclear fission bombs?" Fatty Golin smiled and shook his head: "I don't think the Bolsheviks would care about millions or even tens of millions of Soviet civilians. In fact, they killed more than 10 million Soviets through arrests, shootings, civil wars and famine. In this world war they provoked, at least 20 million Soviets were killed. I think even if we use nuclear fission bombs to kill millions of Soviets, the Bolsheviks would not surrender. So our opinion is that nuclear fission bombs should be used to attack the Soviet military forces and their military industry... Of course, if you have enough nuclear fission bombs to kill every Soviet person, it would be a different matter."

Speaking of this, Fat Gorin looked up at Prime Minister Chang and smiled and said, "Your Excellency Prime Minister, can I take the initiative to ask a question?" Chang Ruiqing nodded. Gorin continued, "Can you tell me how much high-concentration plutonium-239 and high-concentration uranium-235 that you China now stockpile can use to produce nuclear fission bombs?"

"Mr. Baili, how many plutonium-239 and uranium-235 do we have?" Chang Ruiqing smiled and threw the problem to Jiang Baili.

Jiang Baili's eyes turned and smiled, "There are not much. The highly enriched plutonium-239 is less than 100 kilograms, and the highly enriched uranium-235 is more, about 150 kilograms."

Uranium-235 is only 150 kilograms? Go to the trick! Fatty Golin coughed twice, looked at Chang Ruiqing and smiled: "Prime Minister, I want to eliminate the Soviet Union in the common interests of our two countries... Because our two countries are the biggest beneficiaries of eliminating the Soviet Union, so we should also bear the corresponding obligations. I suggest that our two countries should take out all the plutonium-239 and uranium-239 in their hands to create nuclear fission bombs and bomb the Soviet Union! Of course, given that the number of plutonium-239 and uranium-239 provided by the two countries may be very different, as the party that provides less plutonium-239 and uranium-239, it should provide corresponding technology or funds to compensate the other party. Do you think this plan is feasible?" (To be continued, please search Piaotianyi, the novel is better and faster!
