Now on Earth, there is only one 'superpower', and that is the Stars and Stripes. However, before that, the former Soviet Union was definitely a superpower. The game between the two superpowers is an absolutely wonderful show.

After the defeat of the Germans in World War II, the two countries began the first round of confrontation, that is, 'grabbing', grabbing assets, grabbing scientific and technological achievements, and grabbing talents.

However, it is also for this reason that the scientific research skill trees of both countries are a bit off.

Most of the scientific research achievements seized by the former Soviet Union are related to missiles, while most of the science and technology of the Stars and Stripes are related to navigation and aerospace, so there is a slight deviation in the development direction of the military industry of the two countries------ the former Soviet Union is a variety of missiles, while the air force and navy of the Stars and Stripes have advanced development machines, and the aircraft technology and aircraft carrier technology are all world-class.

Later, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the Stars and Stripes became the sole 'superpower', while the former Soviet Union became the Polar Bear State.

To be honest, the Polar Bear Country should be considered a poor country now. His GDP is only about the same as that of Guangdong Province. In the ranking of world countries, it can only be ranked more than a dozen. But he is a country that has the capital and the Stars and Stripes to directly call for it.

First, it is because of the character of this nation, and secondly, they have the capital to call for it, and their capital is a nuclear bomb.

The former Soviet Union once had the largest stockpile of nuclear bombs in the world, with more than 10,000 nuclear warheads, which was not as many as all the nuclear bombs in the world at that time. Although a number of nuclear bombs were later cut by disarmament, it is still the world's largest in terms of the number of nuclear bombs in the world.

Don't underestimate the deterrent power of nuclear bombs. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Ukraine inherited more than 1,200 intercontinental missile nuclear warheads and 2,500 tactical nuclear weapons, directly becoming the world's third largest military power.

At that time, Ukraine was called a, if anyone dared to provoke him, a Tu-160 bomber fully loaded with nuclear bombs could blow up any country in the world!

At that time, Ukraine had a population of 51 million, a per capita GDP of 10,000 US dollars, and no penny of foreign debt, so no country dared to provoke him, including the Stars and Stripes at that time.

But what happened later? They believed in the deception of the Stars and Stripes and NATO, and destroyed all their nuclear bombs. Moreover, the blockade of technical personnel, what aircraft carriers, submarines, and warships at home at home can be sold, and those that can be dismantled will be dismantled, and large-scale killers such as the Tu-160 have also been dismantled into scrap iron.

The result?

Ukraine's population has been reduced by 10 percent, and its foreign debt is tens of billions of dollars, and now it is not necessarily possible to repay the current Ukraine even if it is basically sold. Crimea was reclaimed by the Polar Bear State, and there is still division and war in eastern Ukraine every day. GDP per capita is about the same as that of the Congo in Africa.

And it all started with their own destruction of nuclear weapons.

Look at the polar bear country, although it is said that it is poor now, but there are so many nuclear weapons supported there, and it is hard to talk and do things!

The Soviets, known as the 'crazy Ivan' back then, have reached the pinnacle in the research of nuclear weapons. They not only developed a 'Tsar Bomba' with a T-N-T equivalent of 50 million tons that no one has ever done before, but also found a new way to vigorously develop the 'peaceful use' of nuclear bombs, the most classic example of which is the use of nuclear bombs in 1966 to extinguish the fire at the Urta-Bulak gas well!

At the end of 1963, a fire broke out in the Urta-Burak oil field, about 80 kilometers southeast of the ancient city of Bukhara in Uzbekistan, where the No. 11 gas well drilled through an ultra-high-pressure gas layer at a depth of 2,450 meters during drilling construction, and a serious blowout accident occurred, which caused a fire.

More than 12 million cubic meters of natural gas gushes out every day. Since the pressure in the well was as high as 300 atmospheres, the fire could not be extinguished at all! The fire burned for three years! The various fire brigades came up with countless methods within three years, but the fire could not be extinguished.

In order to extinguish the fire, they drilled three deep wells and injected a lot of cement and various chemicals into the No. 11 deep well, but the pressure was too high to do anything.

And the most worrying thing is that because the casing of the 1,000-meter concrete oil layer at the bottom of Well 11 has not yet solidified, their various fire extinguishing methods not only did not extinguish the fire, but instead caused a crack in the casing, and the natural gas from Well 11 flowed into a nearby oil and gas well. Due to the high content of hydrogen sulfide in the gas, the lives of oilfield workers are threatened.

At this moment, their geologists and nuclear physicists came up with a proposal similar to the 'Arabian Nights', detonating a nuclear bomb with a T-N-T equivalent of about 30,000 tons at the bottom of Well 11, and by squeezing the casing and vitrifying the surrounding rocks, it would be able to seal every breach within 50 meters, so as to completely seal Well 11 and extinguish the fire that had been raging for a long time.

The use of nuclear bombs to extinguish fires was probably only thought of by Soviet scientists, and they did: in 1966, they drilled two inclined shafts with a diameter of 44.5 centimeters and a depth of 1,500 meters. Then a small nuclear bomb with a yield of 30,000 tons of T-N-T was specially created, which was detonated underground there.

The result really made them successful, and Well 11 was completely sealed 23 seconds after the nuclear explosion, and the fire at the wellhead was extinguished. The most amazing thing is that the Ministry of Nuclear Energy did not detect radioactive materials on the surface of the oil and gas field and at the No. 11 wellhead after the incident, and the nuclear explosion did not create any difficulty for further exploitation of the oil field!

For example, in 1979, the Soviet Ministry of Nuclear Energy detonated a small nuclear bomb 893 meters below the Donetsk coal mine in Ukraine, which was used to release gas, prevent mining accidents, and increase the daily output of the mine。。。。。。

In 1973 and 1974, they carried out two underground nuclear explosions, Kama-1 and Kama-2. A 20,000-ton nuclear bomb was detonated at a depth of 2,000 kilometres underground, and two booster wells were set up to bury highly toxic industrial wastewater. One of them, the Kama-2, is still in normal operation today.

Best of all, the Soviet Union also thought of using a 100,000-ton equivalent underground nuclear explosion to cover up the nuclear waste of the nuclear power plant. In the end, it was not possible to calculate which caused more pollution, but the brain circuit of the Soviets was indeed incurable. Can you come up with such a 'creative' idea? No one else has anything special about it.

Of course, the former Soviet Union was not without a time of 'playing badly', and when the devil put on the cloak of 'science', what he did was a bit appalling.

Ever since the Stars and Stripes dropped two nuclear bombs on the Japanese nation, the former Soviet Union had the genius idea of using nuclear bombs to blow up a gap in the opponent's line so that their armies could drive in without hindrance.

But to do this, you have to coordinate the rhythm between the nuclear explosion and the attack, that is, you have to launch a charge in time after the nuclear explosion, you can't blow up and rush at the same time, then you still rush a hairy fart! You can't blow up a year and then rush again, that's no different from not blowing up. Therefore, the Soviets wanted to know whether this soldier could withstand the radiation after the nuclear explosion and complete the combat mission.

So on September 14, 1954, after detonating a nuclear bomb twice as powerful as the Hiroshima nuclear bomb, 45,000 Soviet infantrymen, 600 tanks and 320 planes rushed to the Ural Mountains in the theater zone!

It may be that the Soviet officials themselves felt that this was really not a human thing, so there was no formal follow-up investigation into this act of mass death, so we will never know how many of them died of cancer because of participating in that exercise.

After listening to Xiao Peng's words, Pagio suddenly pointed to the screen, and the character who was fighting on the screen was Wolverine in X-MAN, Pagio smiled: "Do you know? Some people say that Wolverine is also real." ”

Xiao Peng and Yang Meng were stunned for a long time, Xiao Peng looked at Pagio: "Peggy, what are you kidding?"

Pagio shook his head with a smile and lit a cigar: "I'm really not kidding, in fact, in terms of military research, the Stars and Stripes are no less crazy than the 'crazy Ivans', the famous documentary writer and documentary filmmaker at the time, Joan Ronson, published a book called "The Man Staring at the Goat", which recorded an eye-opening content. It records that the Stars and Stripes have a unit called the 'Tianzi First Battalion', which is a force that came into being with the new combat methods of the Stars and Stripes, and everyone in it has to be trained to be different from ordinary people, which is the so-called special function, and you can just treat them as a realistic version of X-MAN. ”

"Damn, is this really fake?" Yang Meng's eyes widened.

Pagio shrugged: "It's true, they not only hope to find superpowered humans, but also hope to train superpowered humans, but they hope to be good, and the result is unsatisfactory----- tens of millions of dollars have been wasted." George Clooney's film "Killing with Eyes" is based on this book. ”

Xiao Peng was stunned: "You old antique still watch movies?"

Pagio shrugged: "I don't like movies, but who made me one of the investors in this movie?"

Yang Meng raised his thumb: "This forced pretending is good!

Pagio didn't mind either, and continued, "The Stars and Stripes' military research on nuclear energy is actually no less than that of the polar bear, but it is even better. As you all know, plutonium is the raw material for nuclear weapons, and it is easy to refine, and it is also a highly toxic poison, and in order to understand how much plutonium can be absorbed by humans, during the Manhattan Project (the project to study the first atomic bomb), there were experiments on the actual plutonium exposure of those cancer patients who were terminally ill and blind, and those researchers thought that you were dying anyway, so you might as well make a little contribution to science before you died. ”

Yang Meng said angrily after hearing this: "Hey, is this still what people do? Why are you embarrassed to criticize our human rights issue?

Pagio shrugged: "This is zhengzhi, in fact, there are many such things, at that time, the Hanford factory near Seattle was directly ordered by the military to release a large amount of radioactive iodine-131, in order to test the detection of sensors used by the Air Force to detect the Soviet nuclear industry base." These sensors react with waste emitted by Soviet factories to analyze the composition of a nuclear bomb. ”

"But because of this brain-dead behavior, hundreds of thousands of unprovoked residents were unknowingly exposed to radioactive materials. Of course, it was also widely believed that nuclear radiation was harmless. ”

Xiao Peng nodded, he just bought a nuclear reactor from that era. And that's just a toy for kids to play with! But luckily, that was decades ago, so I can't do anything like that now, right?

However, as soon as he thought so, Pagio slapped him in the face: "During the Gulf War, the Allies led by the Stars and Stripes were victorious. But it was this victory that knocked Saddam Hussein out of the air, but in turn caused great trouble for the Stars and Stripes. ”

Xiao Peng was stunned: "Then during the Gulf War, the Allies didn't have any losses, right? That was a crushing victory, how could it cause trouble?"

"A total of 700,000 Stars and Stripes soldiers participated in the war, but after the war, at least 1/4 of the soldiers suffered from a strange disease, the symptoms of which were mainly amnesia, headaches, digestive disorders, etc., which was called 'the aftermath of overseas wars'. ”

Yang Meng was happy when he heard this: "What do you mean? This Saddam Hussein knows witchcraft? And he also put a spell on these soldiers?"

Pagio also laughed after hearing this, took a puff of his cigar, and said unhurriedly: "Of course these soldiers are not under witchcraft, the culprit of this disease is a drug called 'pyridine bromide', which is a medicine that the Stars and Stripes let the soldiers take in order to prevent Saddam from attacking with chemical weapons at that time, but the use of large doses of this medicine has not been certified for safety, and it has no effect if the dose is low, but the dose is too much, which causes the current situation." ”

Xiao Peng was speechless and sighed: "Okay, it is said that Saddam Hussein has weapons of mass destruction, but unfortunately in the end he didn't even find a hair, not only do you have to deceive the whole world, but you have even deceived yourself." ”

Pagio didn't refute: "If you don't act like a show, how can you send troops?"

Xiao Pengle said: "Hey, you have a problem with your attitude." Don't you want to support your country's decision?"

Pagio waved his hand: "Xiao, you don't care too much about me, don't you? Don't you know that I am a staunch supporter of anti-war doctrine? Miao Miao is also a Gongchan party member. ”

Xiao Peng just took a bottle of mineral water and took a sip, and when he heard Pagio's words, he sprayed directly: "What? You said Miao Miao is a gongchan party?"

"It's not a secret. IN THE SIXTIES HE JOINED THE GONGCHAN PARTY. So our family is anti-war. Pagio said lightly.

"Damn, the party member of the emotional Miao Miao is older than my father, is this GONGCHAN party not excluded in the Stars and Stripes?" Yang Meng sighed.

Pagio got up from the couch, "It's normal in the Stars and Stripes. The Nazis can survive here, let alone the Gongchan Party. Alright, you guys stop playing, let's go to the bar and sit and talk. The atmosphere in the port bar was still good. ”
