Volume 5 Chapter 488 Underground Labyrinth

"Y substances can concentrate all kinds of radiated rays and change the elements. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 But in our research, we found that this 'reverse generation' is not without a cost. In this half-year period, the total mass of 1287 grams of T substance has decreased by 0.15 grams, and in the natural environment, 0.15 grams of Y substance consumed has accumulated to produce 800 grams of enriched uranium, which means that after these Y substances are consumed, a total of about 6.8 tons of weapons-grade enriched uranium can be aggregated. Rashka said with a solemn face.
Li Mo's mind was still thinking about the enrichment of uranium worth 200 billion, when he suddenly heard Rashka's report, his face was not good-looking. I used to think that Y substance was a permanent ATM, but now it seems that it does not exist permanently. However, this is normal, otherwise Y substances can infinitely produce enriched uranium, not to mention the manufacture of nuclear weapons, in terms of energy, it is not equivalent to no longer bothering to use and research new energy, this alone is enough for the consumption of several countries.
"Boss, because of the consumption of Y substances, I plan to separate them a little bit out for study. The others are enclosed in a vacuum environment to prevent the further loss of the substance; After all, the special surname of this substance, what we understand now is only the skin, and it can't be simply wasted! Rashka then looked at Li Mo with a look of anticipation and said. In fact, he was beating a drum in his heart, after all, the benefits that Y material can bring are too great, if the artificial environment is transformed to accelerate the accumulation of Y substance to produce enriched uranium, it can bring a huge amount of money to the organization every year, but if it is sealed, these funds will be gone. But as a scientific researcher, his curiosity about unknown elements and unknown surnames forced him to stop this 'waste', because no one knows whether this kind of substance, which has never appeared on the earth, is unique.
Abik himself is a scientific research expert, and he knows Rashkar's mentality very well, and he also meets a few sentences at the moment.
"Hehe, you've thought too much. I didn't say I disagree with you! With a speechless look, he said, "There are so many enriched uranium bases, which are enough for us to use at present, since the substance is handed over to you for study, of course, it is mainly based on your opinions, and this matter will be done according to what you say!" ”
Rushka and Abic were naturally overjoyed, and hurriedly patted their chests and promised that they must thoroughly study the substance to bring greater benefits to the organization.
Leaving the No. 9 secret research room, Li Mocai asked, "Have you tested the two 'Satan' medium-range ballistic missiles?" ”
"Yes, boss, although we don't have a special missile expert here, but there are a few people who have participated in missile research, and after testing, those two missiles are basically qualified, of course, no one can guarantee whether they can be used or not. After all, even other countries dare not guarantee that every missile will be successfully launched. And we only have two, we can't do launch tests, and the conditions are still much worse than those countries! Abic explained with some hesitation.
Li Mo also knew that what Abic said was the truth, who made the strength of the organization not work?
"And about the nuclear warheads on these two missiles? I remember that the smallest of the nuclear warheads that we received from the nuclear weapons base was also 500,000 tons of yield, and such missiles could only be equipped with three nuclear warheads of 150,000 tons of yield. ”
"The best way to achieve a change in the primary energy of nuclear weapons is to change the type of nuclear materials, and now the nuclear weapons of all countries are dominated by plutonium, plutonium-239 neutron breeding coefficient is high, and the use of plutonium materials can greatly reduce the size of nuclear devices, reduce weight, and improve the power ratio; However, due to the lack of plutonium raw materials, we can only reduce the size of the nuclear equivalent for the time being. However, in his previous research experiments, Lashkar found that the Y element may be used to achieve the miniaturization of nuclear weapons using uranium-235 as a nuclear material. However, at present, it is only a few assumptions, and the specific details can not be concluded until a long time of research and experimentation. As for the small-yield nuclear warheads for equipping two missiles, the preliminary preparations have been basically completed, and they can be manufactured in half a year at most. At that time, these two missiles had the conditions for real combat! Abic naturally knew the status of nuclear weapons in the boss's mind, and hurriedly told everything he knew.
Li Mo was happy when he heard that it would only take half a year for the organization to have a certain nuclear counterattack capability. For the time being, the organization does not yet need to face a powerful enemy, and the need for nuclear weapons is not very urgent. Li Mo also knew that in the next few years, there was no nuclear war in the world. So he can wait for half a year.
During his more than a day at the Camel Mountain base, he also inspected the construction of a military airfield on the outskirts of Camel Mountain. The improvised runway, which was previously built temporarily, was decommissioned long after the end of the border clashes at Soken; After that, Li Mo spent money to invite many experts in this field in the world to design and build a special military airport. In such a long time, this airport has begun to take shape.
On this day, a small-scale ribbon-cutting ceremony was held in Mogadishu, the capital of Somalia. Celebration of the establishment of the Somali Mudeg Petroleum Company. Present at the ceremony were Hashim, Minister of Industry of Somalia, Jiang Shaoyun, Vice President of CNOOC Group, and Li Mo, Chairman of Somali Xingchen Industrial Group.
At the ceremony, Minister Hashim delivered an important speech congratulating Somalia on the discovery of the largest oil field in Somalia, which has filled a gap in Somali oil extraction. As for the small oil fields that were exploited by several oil companies in Britain and France before, they were naturally ignored by them.
In the newly established Mudege Petroleum Company, Huaxia CNOOC Group and Somali Zhengaxe each hold 40% of the shares, and Somali Xingchen Industrial Group holds 20% of the shares. During the ceremony, Jiang Shaoyun, deputy general manager of Huaxia CNOOC Group, handed over a cheque signed for $100 million to Minister Hashim. Nominally, the $100 million is the cost of obtaining a license for oil extraction. But in fact, it was the first payment for the additional 10% of the shares obtained by CNOOC Group. Traditionally, CNOOC can only acquire a maximum of 30% of the oilfield's shares, until the upfront extraction costs are recovered, and then reduced to 15% of the crude oil profits. But here, Li Mo and others played an important role, and CNOOC Group acquired 40 percent of the oil company's shares, but paid an extra $300 million to the Somali political axe.
On the whole, Huaxia has taken a big advantage. Although the Somali political axe has lost money, it has received much-needed funds. After all, there is still a period of time between the discovery of an oil field and the sale of crude oil. At present, the finances of the Somali political axe are still supported by several 'sales of mineral resources', and they simply can't wait.
Li Mo looked at the result check with a smile on Hashim's face, but secretly said that half of the check would soon become his own. Because the Somali political axe has to pay the Star Industries Group for the purchase of the Lion King infantry fighting vehicle. According to the secret agreement of Hussein, Yusuf and others, the Lion King 1 infantry fighting vehicles that the 1/2nd Armored Brigade is now equipped with will be sold to the Somali Defense Forces for $50 million after the two armored brigades are reequipped. This is almost a 20% discount on the cost price. But Li Mo didn't care so much. It has taken a lot of advantage from the Somali political axe, and it is always necessary to give them some sweetness. Otherwise, in the long run, it will be difficult to ensure that these people will act badly under their resentment.
"Boss, Minister Wang has something important to look for you!" At this moment, the fox, who was the assistant to the chairman of Xingchen Group, came to Li Mo's side and said in his ear.
Li Mo had actually discovered Wang Ning standing in the crowd a long time ago, but he was talking to Jiang Shaoyun and Hashem just now, and he couldn't pull out, so the fox would report it, so he had an excuse to leave.
"What's going on?" In a hidden site of the Ministry of Intelligence, Li Mo asked in a deep voice.
"Boss, I just received information from the north, Captain Luo, and they found the place indicated on the map. But......" Wang Ning said with some hesitation.
Li Mo's eyes narrowed, he lit a cigarette, and nodded to signal Wang Ning to continue.
"However, the Somaliland political axe army has now blocked that area, which means that Luo Xiang and they are now surrounded by the Somaliland political axe army!" Wang Ning gritted his teeth and said.
"What?" Rao is Li Mo saw that something was wrong with Wang Ning's face, and he was still stunned by the news.
……
"Captain, look!" In the dark passage, a bright light suddenly stopped, stopped on the ground in front of him, and then a voice sounded, which was particularly loud in the quiet passage.
A few footsteps were heard, and after approaching where the light was shining, they stopped.
"Another dead man, Little Liu, how many are these?" Another calm voice asked.
"Captain, this is the 7th corpse we've encountered!" Xiao Liu removed the flashlight from the disgusting-looking corpse and replied.
"The seventh? We've been walking more than a dozen kilometers in this damn place. I still can't tell where it is. Damn, was this place made by man? Rao is Luo Xiang has always been good-tempered, and he couldn't help but burst into foul language. Since the Galle tribe got the news of the 'sacred mountain' and led people into this underground passage, they have all walked for nearly a day, and now they can hardly tell the direction and do not know where they are at the moment. It's like a labyrinth, and there are often the same exits and entrances, and after walking for a long time, you find that you have walked back again.
If it weren't for the obvious artificially carved marks around the passage, he would have thought he was in the labyrinth of the novel. Judging from that map, it is obvious that this place has existed for hundreds of years, hundreds of years ago, who had the energy to build such a large-scale underground labyrinth? Luo Xiang thinks that this labyrinth can be listed as a world wonder alongside the Egyptian pyramids and the Great Wall of China. But why is there no record of this labyrinth from the outside world?
Xiao Liu and several team members were silent, and they also wanted to know the answer to this question.
Suddenly, there was a slight sound of footsteps in front of them, and Luo Xiang and the others subconsciously tightened the guns on their bodies.
"Don't shoot, it's us!" A voice sounded, but it was the voice of one of the team leaders of the Meteor Commando who came this time.
"Big Head, did you find anything?" When Luo Xiang heard that it was his own person, he hurriedly asked.
Soon, five figures appeared in the light of the flashlight, led by a young man with a slightly larger than normal head.
"No, this damn place looks pretty much the same, and I can't tell the direction at all. Just now our last flashlight ran out of power, so we went back the way we came! The big head didn't seem to notice the dead man on the ground, just sat on the ground, picked up the water bag and drank a few sips of water and replied.
