Section 558 A mushroom cloud rises from the lighthouse

Red Russia is still desperately resisting the German army that has been pushed to Ukraine and Belarus, but the German army, which has once again been supplied by China's arms deal, is encouraged by China's breakthrough of the Ural defense line, despite the heavy casualties of the three clusters, the German General Staff still decided to launch another offensive, but this offensive is not to compete for strategic points or important resources, but only to open up the passage from the Transcaucasia to the Caspian Sea, so as to meet China here.

Without the support of the arsenals in Kazan, Kirov and other places, the Red Russian army was no longer able to arm more troops, the newly built infantry divisions not only did not have heavy artillery, but even mortars could not be fully staffed, and the reinforcements could only share a rifle for three people, and the other two only had two grenades and a few rows of ammunition. The Chinese side has not yet started on the Eastern Front, but the pressure on the Russian army on the Eastern Front has always been maintained.

In the Pacific Ocean, the US forces were advancing with great triumph, the islands were being contested, and the Japanese forces had to shrink on a large scale, and the Combined Fleet no longer had the strength to launch a large-scale decisive battle, so it could only huddle around the absolute defense circle and play guerrilla warfare with the US Fifth Fleet and the Seventh Fleet.

In addition to China and the United States, several great powers are already desperate, Red Russia has expanded the scope of conscription to young and strong women under the age of 40 and over 15 years old, Japan from the emperor to the young * children have two meals a day, saving food to supply the defenders of the first island chain, Britain can already be called the United Kingdom of Scotland and Ireland, Germany is also dragged by the two-front war is about to collapse, France, uh, if you don't count the French legion wearing German gray uniforms as cannon fodder on the Eastern Front, this country seems to have almost no sense of existence. Italy also said that Alexandria was due to a poor harvest in the vineyards this year, and there was a shortage of grapes and liqueur, an important military material for the spaghetti army on the front line, which was more deadly than ammunition boxes without crowbars.

The American people are still rejoicing in the Navy's series of victories in the Pacific, but Roosevelt is eager to strangle Nimitz, the bastard, 3 aircraft carriers with a few younger brothers to support the other party's 6 aircraft carriers plus a large number of battle columns and battle cruisers, how can you make the president embarrassed to maintain a defensive position in the Pacific Ocean and give priority to the other side of the North Atlantic to wrestle with the stupid Hess Führer. If you can fight like this, why don't you sell strong pills, isn't it a disaster to stay in the US Navy? Of course, the Americans will not pin their hopes entirely on the voyage of the Pacific Ocean from island to island, although the investment in the resources of the Pacific theater is not low, but more cutting-edge warships are used to protect the American merchant fleet across the North Atlantic, and the hateful thing is that the Germans have not stopped the American merchant ships from transfusing the blood of Qiu Fatzi except for laying mines outside some ports in Ireland and Scotland. But it is also embarrassing to say that the sinking of American merchant ships by German mines in British ports was an act of war. In addition to the flamboyant desire to extend the barrels of the tanks to the side of the ship on the British ship, it was almost hung with a banner that read, "Support the British cousin to support Hans's father," but the German submarines cruising in the Atlantic Ocean blinded themselves and did not attack an American merchant ship, while the Canadian merchant ships could not escape the fate of being hunted by submarines even if they were less than five nautical miles in front of and behind the American merchant fleet.

China seems to be the busiest belligerents, a group army and a task force on the southern front are in eastern Java, threatening the Australian continent at any time, an army group on the Indian subcontinent with several provinces of internal security units has become a city management law enforcement team, mediating various differences for more than 200 princely states, two army groups on the western front are still helping the Arabs to eliminate the British, the British in Egypt can even smell the smell of rust grease on the bayonets of China's "repeater" rifles, and the three army groups on the northern battlefield are even more powerful. If it weren't for the long logistics line, it would have been time to raise the Eight Desolations Hongyu Banner in Kazan now. Counting a group army in the Outer Northeast, two-thirds of China's army and Royal Air Force are already fighting on all fronts, but the little devils at the door don't even have the courage to look back to the west, because they know that if China is willing, one air force is enough to send Japan back to the Stone Age, not to mention Germany, Italy, which is also an Axis power, will not mind using Japan's small life as a welcome gift to welcome the Chinese boss into the throne.

At a time when China and the United States seemed to be about to become the final victors of this war, the cold Hans were unwilling to fight hard to cheapen China and the United States, and their trump card was actually the same as that of China and the United States, which was also a primary nuclear weapon derived from thermonuclear reactions.

In Germany's secret factory in the Freiberg Mountains, many scientific researchers are busy at their posts, SS soldiers in black uniforms with MP38 submachine guns guard the passages, and black-backs are led around by military police, and even a fly cannot fly into the experimental area without a certificate of entry. Captain Quegler sat behind his desk, flipping through the entry and exit records, while the two Gestapos were in their offices, staring warily out the window. In the face of these two nervous colleagues, Captain Quegler, who served the General Directorate of National Intelligence, could only shake his head helplessly, he really couldn't think of anything else that could threaten the safety of the factory. However, just as he put down his entry and exit registration book and was about to stretch, a terrible alarm sounded, and the SS patrol outside the window began to run around nervously, and the three of them were stunned, what was wrong?

It turned out that in the core area of the laboratory, a normal test had a major anomaly. Criticality is the key to the detonation of atomic bombs. Atomic bombs need to be safe to store in peacetime, and they must explode within a specified time. The nuclear charging device should be kept in a subcritical state to ensure safety; At the time of the explosion, the nuclear charge must be quickly brought to a hypercritical state to achieve a chain fission reaction. Scientists have also found that to make the transition from subcritical to a hypercritical state, two methods can be adopted, one is the building block patchwork method, for example, the nuclear explosion charge is divided into two pieces, each piece is less than the critical mass, but if the sum is greater than the critical mass, usually the two pieces are separated, each piece is in a subcritical state, and no chain reaction can occur, if they are quickly combined, they form a piece of ultra-high quality nuclear charge, and fission will occur immediately. The second method is called the compression method, which uses the explosive power of ordinary bombs to accumulate dispersed and enriched uranium into one piece, so that it exceeds the critical temperature and explodes. The experiment that Dr. Powell is leading his team to conduct today is to explore and solve this detonation problem.

Powell and seven colleagues conducted an experiment in which two beryllium hemispheres (a neutron-reflecting material) were placed around a plutonium core as the starting step for a fission reaction. The core used in the experiment was the same 6.2-kilogram plutonium core that irradiated Daglien. Powell grasped the beryllium-made upper hemisphere with his left hand through the finger hole, and on the other hand, used a screwdriver with his right hand to maintain the space between the upper and lower hemispheres, while the assistant removed the usual gap filler.

At 2:20 p.m., a slight cracking sound sounded, and in the astonished eyes of everyone, the card slot of the guide rail became fragmented like a piece of paper, causing the beryllium upper hemisphere to fall, causing an "instantaneous critical" reaction and releasing a hard radiation. At the same time, the scientists in the room observed the "blue fluorescence" formed by the ionization of the air, as well as felt a "heat wave". In addition, Powell felt a sour taste in his mouth and a sharp pain in his left hand from being burned. Powell instinctively pumped his left hand upward, trying to pull up the beryllium upper hemisphere, but at this time, the guide rail on the other side suddenly collapsed, and the other half of the beryllium hemisphere rushed down rapidly, the dazzling blue light shone on the entire room, and the air was filled with ionized electromagnetic noise, and the guards in the monitoring laboratory dedicatedly pulled down the alarm bell, but this was also the last action he could do.

A plutonium charge nuclear bomb is different from a uranium nuclear bomb in that it requires only 5.44 kg of plutonium, while a uranium charge requires a few tens of kilograms of uranium (235). The Germans named the project for the study of plutonium bombs "lighthouse", and this time the lighthouse has not yet been erected, but the mushroom cloud has already risen. The plutonium bullets that had broken through the critical value reacted slowly, but they were no longer something that the suffocating guards could stop. Finally this heat wave reduced the entire underground base to a cloud of smoke, and with a loud bang, the first mushroom cloud that rose in the lands outside of China bloomed her beautiful and evil stamens.

As soon as Quegler and the two Gestapo stepped out of the guard building, they were shrouded in a blinding white light, and then a wall of fire struck like a tidal wave, and by the time it was all over, the figures of the three men had disappeared, leaving only three traces of vaporization on a section of the ruins.

When the news came that Freiberg was attacked by the enemy with a powerful bomb, General Canaris took a deep breath, he waved his hand to signal the adjutant to withdraw, and gently twisted the report, although it was only a few words, but Canaris was already completely sure that this was definitely not an enemy bombing, but that the decisive trump card of the Germans had been reduced to ashes, and Germany, which had lost its "lighthouse", still had a few chances of winning this great war that had lasted for four years?

Suddenly, he remembered the text message that Heydrich had left him two years ago when he left, "We will not allow anyone to touch the flame in God's hands." ”

"Do you think so?" A ridiculous thought crossed Canaris's mind, that his real owner, the leather-clad man in the Far East, who always smiled like an enigma, had secretly set up a game that would cause the Germans to lose almost all their researchers, research data, and raw materials with a bang when they were about to touch the energy that only God could grasp. Germany has effectively withdrawn from the race with China for the top of the world, and the beacon of German national fortunes has been extinguished, leaving only the curling green smoke rising from the ruins of Freiberg.
