Chapter 802: Somalia's first nuclear explosion

That night, after Li Lan passed on the collated evidence to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the ambassador to the United Nations, he rushed to the eastern mountains of Bossaso by helicopter overnight according to the original plan.

However, just as he was about to step into the helicopter ramp, his steps shrank and the crew, as well as reporters and subordinates, were waiting by the helicopter, while he walked into the Ministry of Defense alone.

Such a sudden movement, of course, was not designed a long time ago, but a sudden situation that he really encountered.

Just now, the assistant informed him that another hero-level unit was born, and the reason why he was so interested that he changed the itinerary was that the hero-level that appeared this time was from the engineer unit.

Although the assistant did not specify what kind of hero class appeared in the notice, he remembered very well that at this time, the recruitment list happened to be recruiting engineers. This group of engineers, originally intended to support South Sudan's infrastructure and temporarily increased, who knew that there would be a surprise.

After hurriedly entering the mysterious room where the newly recruited soldiers were, he immediately found his target, a bearded middle-aged man, who was the most unique and dazzling existence here, and his gaze swept directly over.

Mora Calas. Heschumann: Heroic Engineer.

Competencies - Perfect Physics and Chemistry Engineering ......

Special ability - research and innovation. (Book friend cameo)

has long been deeply aware of the huge role brought by the hero-level unit, although his specific ability cannot be seen from Herschumann's profile, but a hero-level unit is enough to make Li Lan extremely expected, and from Heschumann's profile. It wasn't hard for him to see that this heroic unit had a unique ability that was different from that of a normal engineer.

It's just that he doesn't have much time to talk to Heschumann, the new subordinate, right now.

"I've seen the commander. Chief Engineer Herschumann came to report. As soon as I saw Li Lan, Herschumann was looking around. Immediately stepped forward and saluted a nondescript military salute and said.

"You're welcome, now get dressed and come with me." Li Lan ordered directly.

After taking the engineer's white coat sent by the staff and putting it on his body so-so, Heschumann spoke: "It's a good job." ā€

Seeing this, Li Lan didn't say anything, but nodded and walked towards the outside of the Ministry of Defense. Soon both of them were on the helipad, and everyone waiting here saw Li Lan followed by a stranger. They are all very puzzled.

"This is Herschumann, our chief engineer." After revealing Herschumann's identity, Li Lan continued: "This time, Herschumann will go with me to observe and set off immediately. ā€

Heschumann was obviously not good at dealing with people, and under Li Lan's introduction, he just smiled at everyone with a stiff face, and finally closed the helicopter hatch, which saved him a lot of embarrassment.

And in the southern part of the Eastern Mountains, a simple project has been completed. The Strategic Missile Forces also completely took over the place, and a no-go zone was drawn in this place.

Two days ago, a mysterious convoy belonging to the strategic forces entered the blockaded mountainous area.

Tonight, the presidential helicopter exclusive to Li Lan. It also landed here slowly.

Today, the entire southern end of the mountain range is illuminated by lights and a large number of staff. The southernmost part of the mountain range, a mountain hundreds of meters high, is completely isolated. Take the hill as a circle of 10 kilometers, and it is strictly forbidden for anyone to approach.

Now. Helicopters can be seen everywhere in the sky, and on the periphery, the patrol personnel are intensive, and a large number of military dogs patrol back and forth.

Located twenty kilometers south of the mountain, this is the center of the entire blockade operation, a large number of staff, in and out of this place, some scientists, some engineers, even the arrival of Li Lan, these busy figures, did not stop even a moment.

"Commander, is this?" Heschumann had just come into contact with this world, and although the base gave him a complete memory of this world, it was only a one-sided understanding of this world, and he was still very unfamiliar with the environment he was about to come into contact with.

"Do you know nuclear physics?" Li Lan did not answer his question, but asked rhetorically.

When Herschumann heard this, confidence immediately appeared on his face, and he said: "Of course, I understand that I first came into contact with nuclear physics, and then slowly came into contact with chemistry, and as for other skills, for me, it is pediatrics." ā€

Li Lan nodded, he thought of this from the moment he saw Heshumann's explanation, otherwise he wouldn't have brought him here, "There will be an underground nuclear test later, and you will have a good look by my side when the time comes." ā€

"Why are you still testing a real nuclear bomb?" However, when Herschumann heard Li Lan's words, he said in great amazement: "Hasn't the simulated nuclear test room been set up yet?" ā€

When Li Lan heard this, he didn't get angry, but nodded with great satisfaction, and it was not difficult to hear from Heshumann's surprised words that this person must have a lot of good goods in his stomach, "The simulated nuclear test room has already been built, but I need a real nuclear explosion." That's why the first and last nuclear explosion was planned here. ā€

"I see, that humble job really should be taken a good look at." Herschumann looked suddenly enlightened, and then said with some curiosity: "What is the equivalent?" ā€

"Two million tonnes of TNT equivalent, I believe that movement is sufficient." Li Lan said.

"I'm really looking forward to it, I'm not going to hide it, I've never seen a real nuclear test with my own eyes, and I know a lot about simulated nuclear tests." Heschumann couldn't help but rub his palms, looking very interested in me.

"Commander, are you here ......" Just as the two of them were standing outside the collection center and talking, a young man in a white coat walked over, originally greeting Li Lan, but when he saw Heschumann, he was stunned for a moment, and then greeted Heschumann very excitedly: "Teacher Heschumann, you are finally here." ā€

"You're Chen Han." When Heschumann saw this young man, his face was a little more excited.

"It is the students who are looking forward to the left and right, and finally the teacher is coming." This young man called Chen Han in Heschumann's mouth. Excitedly, he took his hands and said, "Students miss their teachers day and night. ā€

……

Li Lan, who was ignored, was not angry. Chen Han is the head of the nuclear physics engineering department, this time underground nuclear test. It was Chen Han himself who served as the commander-in-chief. As for the memories given by the base to these troops, he has also seen too much, the two teachers and students have a deep relationship, and it is normal for people to reminisce about the past.

However, his standing here also made Heshumann and Chen Han consciously stop, and after a brief reminiscence, Chen Han said to Li Lan: "I'm very sorry Your Excellency, Commander, I'm too excited. ā€

"It's okay, how's the preparation going?" Li Lan went straight to the point.

"It's all set. The nuclear bomb has also been planted, and a final check of the operation of all test numbers and collection equipment is currently underway. As soon as he got down to business, Chen Han said with a straight face.

"Good, let's get started when you're ready." Li Lan nodded and took the lead in walking into the collection center.

This is the first nuclear explosion test in Somalia's nuclear sector development plan, and the last real nuclear explosion test to avoid damage to the land caused by nuclear radiation. Naturally, underground nuclear tests were chosen.

"Commander, it seems that the United Nations has a Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty, is it appropriate for us to conduct nuclear tests like this?" After following Li Lan into the center, Herschumann asked.

"Somalia has not signed this agreement. According to the preliminary agreement reached with the UN Security Council, the signing of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty will be accompanied by the signing of the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty. Now it doesn't matter if it hasn't been signed. ā€

After answering Heschumann's questions. Li Lan sneered in her heart.

In the 96th year of the twentieth century, the United Nations General Assembly voted 158 in favor and 3 against the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty. And yet good people. Don't be overjoyed, because the treaty only means that the end of the nuclear race in terms of live explosions does not mean the end of all forms of nuclear testing, still less the end of the shadow of nuclear war. Computer simulation is an effective way to test nuclear weapons.

In the past, nuclear explosion testing was an indispensable part of the development of nuclear weapons, but now the situation has changed considerably. Advances in science and technology have reduced the role of nuclear explosion tests in the development of nuclear weapons. Technically speaking, computer simulation of nuclear tests will be of great significance for the development and improvement of new types of nuclear weapons.

As early as the last decade or so, many developed countries in the West have been able to use high-speed large-scale electronic computers to simulate the entire process of a nuclear explosion in a three-dimensional space even if they do not conduct nuclear tests.

In a word, it is a breakthrough that future nuclear tests will not use nuclear bombs and computers.

In 97, IBM announced that it would build a supercomputer that could calculate 1 billion times per second, which could do the work that a person using a portable computer could do in 30,000 years in one second. Later, IBM continued to develop faster supercomputers. This provides the United States with an effective means of simulating a nuclear explosion without the need for an actual nuclear explosion. After the entry into force of the Treaty, future nuclear tests had to be carried out by means of computer simulations, which only powerful computers could do. As a result, the United States has accelerated its search for ways to maintain the effectiveness of existing nuclear weapons without nuclear testing.

At that time, the United States used 192 high-power lasers to generate 18 megajoules of pulse energy in the real yĆ n room to simulate a nuclear explosion, study the physical process of the nuclear explosion, and fully realize the physical process of the simulated nuclear weapon explosion in the real yĆ n room.

This fully shows that the means of acquiring, maintaining, and developing nuclear weapons have moved from underground nuclear tests to the real room, and the competition for superiority in nuclear technology will mainly unfold in the real room.

According to the statistics of the intelligence department, the countries and regions that have been able to carry out computer simulations of nuclear tests so far are: the United States, Russia, Britain, France, China, Japan, and Baodao.

And the United States and Russia have conducted a number of subcritical nuclear tests. Japan, which has great ambitions, has been paying close attention to the research work of the United States, Russia, France, and other countries in simulating nuclear tests using computer simulation technology.

Western military powers have used computer simulations to simulate nuclear tests to bring the nuclear race to a new and higher level. Because such a nuclear test can significantly reduce costs, do not cause pollution, and do not violate the treaty, it can cover up the tragedy and anxiety that nuclear weapons bring to the survival and peace of mankind.

Moreover, the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty was adopted at the beginning, and a very important purpose was to completely cut off the countries that might possess nuclear weapons and develop nuclear weapons.

Therefore, when computer simulation of nuclear tests has become a semi-open secret around the world, all of them are back on track, among which Japan is the most active, and it is Japan that has set up a similar simulated nuclear explosion room, which has given Japan the ability to possess a large number of nuclear bombs in a short period of time.

The annual stockpiling of nuclear waste is a guarantee of Japan's rapid possession of nuclear weapons.

However, the impact of this treaty has no binding capacity for Somalia at all, and when Li Lan did not have a nuclear bomb, he dared to use deceptive means to confront the United States. Now that he has a real nuclear bomb, he is naturally more courageous.

Now, he wants to completely kill the topic of suspicion and confirm the news that Somalia has nuclear weapons to the world with practical actions.

When the time comes, European and American countries will inevitably adopt corresponding measures in order to prevent Somalia from continuing to conduct nuclear tests, and the road for Somalia to sign the "Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty" will be smooth.

Then Li Lan will be able to conduct a simulated nuclear test in the real room, just like other countries.

Of course, there are other purposes in this, and the real nuclear threat will not only have a one-sided effect, but will also be very helpful for Somalia to seek justice for the European countries.

"Commander, all personnel have been evacuated, and underground nuclear explosion tests can begin at any time." Chen Han reported.

"Let's get started." Li Lan nodded.

Chen Han immediately gave the order for the countdown to start the nuclear explosion test, and after a full thirty seconds of countdown, a huge loud noise was heard, and everyone could feel that the entire earth was shaking violently, and even the surface of the earth had many tiny cracks.

Li Lan, who was standing in the center of the count, was steadying his body while watching the recorded footage of the effects of the nuclear explosion. In the camera picture at this moment, the mountain has already been shrouded in thick dust and smoke, and multiple helicopters and a lighthouse in the distance on the ground illuminate the entire mountain as if it were day, but the strong dust and smoke brought by the huge explosion directly blocked the sight.
