Chapter 520: Global Disaster
Since the launch of more than 100 anti-satellite missiles from Palawan Island, several military powers in the world that have the ability to monitor the launch of ballistic missiles have all been extremely nervous, especially since almost less than two minutes after the launch of Palawan Island, the United States launched dozens of missiles, although some of these missiles were subsequently detonated by the United States or forced to land in the deep sea.
It was just that immediately after Palawan launched another 19 suspected ballistic missiles, a missile explosion was heard in space, and several major military powers quickly guessed something.
And through this short period of a few minutes, the Celestial Empire, Russia, Britain, France, Germany and other military powers, all shocked to find a fact that made them feel frightened, the United States must have misunderstood the Ministry of Defense, so they launched a nuclear bomb, but after the launch, they found that the Ministry of Defense was not a nuclear bomb, but an anti-satellite missile, because the missiles launched by Palawan Island from beginning to end did not re-enter the atmosphere, that is, people want to hit the satellites of the United States in space.
While shocked that the Ministry of Defense actually has such a terrifying military strength, several major military powers immediately activated their own nuclear threat weapons, and at the same time raised all the combat readiness to the highest level, they found that three ballistic missiles were breaking through the atmosphere and descending towards the earth, and the speed was getting faster and faster, but at present, they could not guess the attack direction of these three ballistic missiles, even if it was their fastest calculation, it was extremely difficult to calculate the accurate data in this situation. After all, time is too short.
Ballistic missiles, after re-entry, can reach speeds of more than Mach 8, and some are even capable of approaching Mach 10. Except for a very small number of countries in this world that have the ability to intercept them luckily, there are really few countries that can stop them.
Not only are other countries worried and afraid, but even the Pentagon is panicking, after losing all the satellites that can be contacted, they can only rely on the Harvard astronomical telescope to observe everything that happens in space, they are extremely lucky to see a nuclear bomb explosion in space, but they also see three nuclear bombs were deflected by the shock wave of the explosion. At this time, no one can say where these three warheads, carrying a total of 24 W-76 IV independent multiple re-entry vehicles with a yield of 100,000 tons, will fall.
But all those who observed this time had already prepared for the worst, 24 nuclear warheads. Wherever it falls, it will bring permanent and indelible disasters there, especially in densely populated areas, which will surely bring tens of thousands, if not millions, of deaths.
Only two minutes later. Celestial Empire, Russia, France, Germany, Great Britain. Even the United States itself launched a large number of missiles to intercept these nuclear warheads that seemed to fall on them, and after entering the atmosphere, the three nuclear warheads immediately split apart, and the 24 nuclear warheads flew towards their respective targets in an instant. It's just that without guidance, relying entirely on inertial nuclear warheads, it is like a headless fly that flies all over the world.
It is a pity that in the end, only the Celestial Empire and the United States have succeeded in stopping these nuclear warheads with a speed of more than Mach 6, and even some of them have reached more than Mach 8. And the two great powers only intercepted one.
The Celestial Empire can be said to be quite lucky, and it took more than 120 strategic missiles from the Southeast Military Region to stop this nuclear warhead that seemed to be landing in the vicinity of Hong Kong, Shenzhen, and Macao. It exploded in the air at a distance of about 23,000 meters. Although this will also bring a certain degree of nuclear radiation to the city below, it is much less dangerous than exploding directly on the ground, and there can be a follow-up solution.
The United States has an advanced missile automatic defense system, and they have a large number of missiles, so after they fired the overwhelming missiles, they finally succeeded in stopping the two nuclear warheads launched by themselves, and even the interception altitude was a little higher, about 26,000 meters at an altitude of about 26,000 meters, and they used hundreds of missiles to stop two.
But that's all there is to it, the remaining 21 nuclear warheads really exerted their power, and finally let the world once again try the huge destructive power of nuclear bombs.
After the proliferation of nuclear warheads, because there is no guidance target, any impact will cause chaos in the world, even if they are subjected to strong convective weather in the sky, they will be blown away by tens or even hundreds or thousands of kilometers, all by inertia and luck.
The mud bombardment of Osaka was almost wiped to the ground by a nuclear warhead; The ruins have not yet been cleared, but Busan, which has basically recovered its life and production status, has not been spared; Palau, which had just become independent, was completely wiped out by a nuclear warhead that landed about a kilometer into the nearby sea; Of the three warheads that fell on the Pacific Ocean, one of them happened to fall less than 2 kilometers to the Ohio-class submarine of the United States Army, which had just finished launching ballistic missiles, and the powerful explosion directly tore through the strategic nuclear submarine with eight ballistic missiles left, causing it to sink to the icy island.
On the Asian side, it is not these places that are the worst, but Singapore. Two nuclear warheads, one actually fell in the center of Singapore, and the other fell in Malaysia next to Singapore, a strong explosion destroyed countless buildings in Singapore on the spot, and then the strong shock wave was even more I don't know how many people's bodies were torn apart, the two nuclear warheads took away millions of human lives, and even the soldiers of the Mi Army in the base of the Mi Army were not spared, although they also found an abnormality on the radar, and immediately launched a missile to intercept, It's a pity that their missiles were clearly in vain.
Seven nuclear warheads landed in Europe and Western Asia, but fortunately four of them landed in the western part of the Mediterranean and the Atlantic Ocean, and were extremely fortunate not to be next to any islands, except for one freighter, which was unfortunately involved in sinking. The other three were also quite lucky, one fell into the desert of Saudi Arabia, one fell into the mountains of Turkey, and one fell into the central region of Romania, all of which are not densely populated areas.
But the remaining eight nuclear warheads that fell on Africa and the Americas were not so lucky. A drop 3 kilometers outside the southern Moroccan city of Tarfaya wiped out half of the city. A nuclear bomb fell into the southern part of the urban area of Kano, an important city in Nigeria, and it also almost wiped out the city, which was not rich in the first place.
Africa is fine, only 2 of them have fallen, and in the Americas it is completely miserable. Although the United States succeeded in launching two missiles, more than two missiles landed on the territory of the United States, and this incident also proved that the so-called missile defense system of the United States is not so tight.
One fell into the western desert of the United States, but tragically it was only 6 kilometers away from Las Vegas; The other fell south of Lake Michigan, less than 3 kilometers from Chicago, and the last one brought an even greater tragedy to the United States, where the center of Houston, the country's largest oil city, was unfortunately hit.
The city with a population of more than 2 million people gathers the largest number of petroleum and chemical enterprises and factories in the United States, and is also the largest railway hub and airport in the south.
At the same time, the explosion of this nuclear warhead has also brought far-reaching and painful disasters to the petroleum and chemical enterprises in the United States, although the United States has been authorized to use wireless power commercially, but the most is still oil-burning cars, plus airplanes, cargo ships, tanks and so on almost all power rely on oil.
And their largest oil city was destroyed, and it is obviously impossible to repair it in a short time, which is tantamount to bringing huge trouble to the United States, although the country's reserves, but after all, the reserves are limited, and the oil consumption of the United States is the largest in the world, and their national reserves can support for a few days?
Canada and Mexico are quite innocent in comparison, with one falling on the eastern shore of Lake Winnipeg, fortunately more than 20 kilometers away from downtown Winnipeg; In Mexico, the explosion of a nuclear bomb that fell into the Rio Grande affected the city of Nuevo Laredo, but only a small part. As for the last nuclear warhead, it was extremely lucky to fall on the Caribbean Sea, but unfortunately it involved Jamaica, because it was not far from him, and it was also less than 10 kilometers, and the explosion of the nuclear warhead would definitely have a negative impact on Jamaica to some extent.
The whole world is almost collectively silent at this moment, and many people really can't understand, what is the United States going to do? Do they want to fight the Great War of the World? Do they really think that they can challenge all the countries in the world with their own strength?
Less than five minutes after the incident, the White House immediately held an emergency statement. Santorum tearfully expressed his apologies to the whole world, they claimed to be the first to monitor the use of ballistic missiles by the Ministry of Defense, so the United States immediately used ballistic missiles to fight back, absolutely not intended to target countries, after all, the United States is also one of the victims of the nuclear bomb, and the loss is not small, of course, the specific loss, no one knows the road now, all the damaged countries in the world are still being counted.
At the same time, Rick? Santolum also expressed his deep apologies to the people of the United States, he let the United States suffer the threat of nuclear bombs, and finally roared in anger and declared that the Ministry of Defense would not be spared, and the United States would use all possible forces and ways to retaliate against the nuclear bomb attack of the Ministry of Defense.
After all, in this short period of time, all of the satellites of the United States were shot down by the second wave of anti-satellite missiles of the Ministry of Defense, and not only the United States, but also nearly 100 satellites of various types were not spared.
Not only satellites, but also the fighter group and the first aircraft carrier group that have been dispatched have also dropped several special deep-sea bombs when passing through certain areas of the Pacific Ocean, directly blowing up all communication optical cables and cables between the whole of Asia and the United States, that is to say, the communication methods between the United States and most Asian countries have been completely cut off.
