Chapter 261: Not at all sure
readx;
Chapter 261 is completely uncertain about the second update
"You still can't sink down......" After going back, Old Man Ye said to Ye Kai. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"This is purely accidental, who knew that Comrade Hong Zheng would say such a thing, it just so happened that I did such a thing again......" Ye Kai looked at Old Man Ye, and said a little embarrassed, "Deputy department level for nothing, don't be in vain, right?" What do you say? ”
The second old man had military affairs to deal with, so he took the first step, and there were three people left in the house: Old Man Ye, Ye Ziping and Ye Kai.
In fact, Old Man Ye couldn't stay here for long.
So the three of them sat together, in addition to drinking tea and resting, to review today's affairs, the relevant successes and failures.
"I'm completely in the dark, and I'm still not speaking out." Ye Ziping said.
In fact, he still has some opinions on some of the things that Ye Kai did, he is so capable of tossing that he even came up with earthquake weapons, is this still alive?
In this regard, Secretary Ye said that he couldn't tolerate it, "You better stop a little, now we can't control you." ”
Old Man Ye snorted and said, "Do you really believe it, what kind of earthquake weapon is that?" ”
"Isn't it?" Ye Ziping was stunned for a moment, feeling that Old Man Ye had something to say, and couldn't help but wonder, if Ye Kai was not an earthquake weapon, then what would it be?
It felt like nothing could blow up a mountain.
"It's a nuclear bomb." Old Man Ye said.
"Atomic bomb?!" After Ye Ziping heard this, his heart suddenly tightened, and he was frightened.
"The Soviet-made suitcase-type nuclear bomb cost me 20 million US dollars, and the price is indeed not small." Ye Kai also admitted at this time that that thing was indeed not an earthquake weapon, but a real suitcase-type nuclear bomb.
Ye Ziping gasped, and it took a long time to react, "You are really bold enough!" ”
But what surprised him even more was how did Ye Kai get these things?
"In the conference room of the Central Political Bureau, Li Man, I have already said that the top of the Soviet army is completely rotten, as long as you give money, you can get anything." Ye Kai naturally won't reveal his business secrets, there are only a few people who know about Major Bout's line, and they are all under Ye Kai's direct control, nothing can go wrong, and no one can pry away his business.
In fact, in the 60s, there was some news about the suitcase nuclear bomb from the United States and the Soviet Union, but no one ever said that they had seen it with their own eyes.
From the point of view of nuclear physics, the minimum critical value of plutonium in nuclear material must meet the requirement of maintaining a mass of 10.5 kg in a sphere with a diameter of 10.1 cm, and as long as the mass is less than or the volume is greater than this minimum critical value, the nuclear material will not cause a chain reaction and cause a nuclear explosion.
But as long as measures are taken to make nuclear material more than 10 of this value, an explosion equivalent to 10 to 20 tons of yellow** can be produced. And when it exceeds 20, it can produce an explosion equivalent to 200 tons of yellow**.
In order to achieve this effect, a more advanced implosion technology is generally used, that is, the plutonium is squeezed beyond the critical volume through a conventional explosion, resulting in a nuclear explosion.
In order to meet these conditions, the volume and mass of a nuclear bomb using this traditional principle of nuclear weapons cannot be too small, so with the addition of conventional ** and mechanical devices for detonating nuclear substances, such a nuclear weapon can barely fit in a suitcase.
The former Soviet suitcase nuclear bomb purchased by Ye Kai through Major Bute was 60 centimeters long, 40 centimeters wide, and 20 centimeters thick, and weighed less than fifty pounds.
"Before the 70s, the Soviet Union secretly built 132 suitcase nuclear bombs, and dozens of them are now missing. Some of them may have fallen into the hands of terrorists. Ye Kai said, "This kind of thing is actually very dangerous. I spent money to buy 10 of them to blow up the mountain, which can be regarded as a certain contribution to world peace. ”
The weapons, all hidden in an arsenal on Russian territory in the Soviet Union, have always been under the tight control of the Russian military and intelligence services, and have never been officially equipped with the army.
The purpose of developing these suitcase nuclear bombs was mainly to destroy strategically important targets in the deep area of the enemy's rear, and each suitcase-type nuclear bomb has a yield of about 1,000 tons, which can be said to be very powerful in flattening an area within a radius of 600 to 800 meters.
"This kind of thing is terrible......" After Ye Ziping heard this, his face was also very ugly.
"The most serious question is whether there will be a large loss of the former Soviet Union's nuclear arsenal after the collapse of the Soviet Union, which is the most headache." Old Man Ye pointed out the key point of the problem to the point.
"You don't have to worry, at least the nuclear button of the former Soviet Union should have been safely handed over to Russian President Boris Yeltsin." Ye Kai said to Old Man Ye and Ye Ziping.
"Well, that's better." Old Man Ye nodded and said, "At least there will be no loss of large-yield nuclear weapons, otherwise, the trouble will be even greater." ”
In fact, the nuclear button system of Russia and the Americans is still relatively safe.
Wherever the Russian president goes, there is always an officer in a navy uniform with a black suitcase with him.
This box is the so-called nuclear button, but in fact, the nuclear button is a special communication device that can issue nuclear attack commands.
When the Russian president decides to use strategic nuclear missiles for an attack or counterattack, the officer, who is inseparable from the president, hands over to the president the nuclear button suitcase that he carries with him.
Russia's nuclear pushbutton suitcase is 10 centimeters thick and weighs 10 kilograms, is shockproof and anti-jamming, and is equipped with an automatic protection device, if the wrong password is entered multiple times when opened, the nuclear button will automatically fail.
There are three nuclear button suitcases, which are in the hands of the president, the secretary of defense and the chief of staff.
In order to launch a nuclear attack, it is not necessary to press three buttons at the same time, and it is generally sufficient for the president and the secretary of defense to operate. The launch procedure adopts a dual nuclear button system, that is, each level has two sets of passwords, and only when the two sets of passwords are accurately put together and the command is conveyed step by step, can the nuclear missile be finally launched.
After the president and the secretary of defense took out the codes in their respective nuclear button suitcases, they simultaneously sent them to the Operations Department of the General Staff Department, and the special communications center of the ministry immediately mixed them into a new set of passwords, and then transmitted them to the central command posts of the various arms of the armed forces possessing strategic nuclear weapons through special communication frequencies, and then to the units on strategic duty, and finally to each launch pad, including missile bases, nuclear submarines, and strategic bombers.
Commanders at all levels immediately check the code in their custody after receiving the instruction on the code for launching a nuclear missile. Each commander and his deputy each held half of the code, and after combining it, they checked it with the code sent by the Supreme Command, and after confirming that it was correct, they took out the keys stored on each of them and activated the firing device.
The location of the two nuclear missile launch keyholes is also specially designed, at least 3 meters away, to ensure that one person cannot insert two keys into the two nuclear missile launch keyholes at the same time.
What is controlled by this kind of nuclear button is the attack mode of large nuclear weapons, such as the use of intercontinental ballistic missiles and the attack mode of the United States as an imaginary enemy, so the management is more cautious.
But the suitcase-type nuclear bomb is different, this thing is too convenient to use, and the yield of 1,000 tons is enough to raze important targets such as airports, docks, and buildings.
The most terrifying thing is that this thing can be operated by one person, which is very convenient.
As for the power of the explosion, Ye Kai has seen it, the explosion of ten suitcase-type nuclear bombs has completely destroyed a mountain range and opened up a path, if it explodes in the city, how many innocent civilians will be injured?
"There's a real threat to this kind of thing, and if possible, try to keep it in our own hands." Old Man Ye finally made a request to Ye Kai.
"Yes." Ye Kai didn't say anything, and directly agreed.
Ye Kai bought ten suitcase-type nuclear bombs, and he spent a huge amount of 20 million US dollars, if he also pocketed the remaining suitcase-type nuclear bombs, how much would it cost? I guess I can get 200 million US dollars, right?
However, if Ye Kai finds the other party and buys it at one time, he may be able to smash the other party with 100 million US dollars.
"Eighteen-year-old deputy department level, you are proud enough, and you should spend some money." Old Man Ye glanced at Ye Kai and said to him.
The problem is that it doesn't cost a little money! Ye Kai wanted to refute it, but he thought about it, such a powerful weapon, in his own hands, is actually good, so he should be regarded as a reserve.
Maybe you can still use it in the future, and now you can spend $100 million to go out, although it feels a little painful, but the future appreciation space is still very large.
It is conceivable that if you put it for ten or eight years, a suitcase of 100 million US dollars, it is estimated that someone will be willing to buy it.
The chaos in the former Soviet Union's nuclear arsenal caused by historical reasons cannot last long, and once order is re-established, such a loophole can no longer be exploited.
Thinking of this, Ye Kai immediately called Zhang San and asked him to contact Major Bute.
"By the way...... Ye Ziping finally got used to it at this time, and he suddenly remembered a very important question, "You blow up the mountain in the Jiangzhong Mountains, will you cause nuclear radiation?" ”
"Is this a question......" After Ye Kai heard it, he was stunned for a moment.
Will this problem of nuclear radiation happen?
In Ye Kai's heart, he is not very accurate.
It stands to reason that a 1,000-ton nuclear explosion occurred under a mountain hundreds of meters deep, and the possibility of such an explosion releasing radiation is very, very small, but it cannot be ruled out, and the impact on the environment is not at all.
This kind of thing, in fact, is one thing in theory, and it is another thing in practice.
The specific results will mostly depend on the character of the user.
Before receiving a specific data report, Ye Kai was really not sure about such a problem at all.
