There are many types of nuclear weapons, and nuclear shells are one of the smaller ones.

However, the power of nuclear artillery shells is not weak at all, especially the 420mm fission nuclear shells used by Zhang Shixin on 2B1, and the TNT yield is about 7000~8000 tons.

Such lethality may be relatively small for the destructive power of a city, but this is not one, but six, and at the same time, these six nuclear shells are not fired at this one point, but at six positions respectively.

It can be said that the lethal and destructive power of these six nuclear shells is no less than that of a nuclear bomb with a yield of 100,000 tons of TNT.

How powerful is a 100,000-ton nuclear bomb?

If an air blast were to be carried out at the Ginza location in Tokyo, a one-kilometer radius of the building would be almost flattened, and everything inside would either be crystallized or vaporized.

This is the most direct destructive force, not the maximum instant killing effect of nuclear weapons.

The various rays produced after the explosion of nuclear weapons can have an effective killing range of up to six kilometers, and the yield level increases.

Generally speaking, in the area of destruction in the area of nuclear explosion, there are no humans and animals, and it is unlikely that there will be even a single mosquito.

Of course, there is a premise for this, that is, there are not too many towering buildings in the area of the nuclear explosion, which blocks the direct destruction effect.

A true three-defense system can effectively reduce the lethal effects of nuclear weapons. Of course, there is a benchmark for how much this can afford. More than it can bear, and everything is in vain.

Zhang Shixin knew very well that in his original world, many of the bomb shelters that were ordered to be dug in the sixties of the twentieth century because of fears of a nuclear war did not pass at all.

Zhang Shixin called these things a collective coffin.

Because it is completely unrealistic to expect these rudimentary systems of bomb shelters to withstand modern aerial bombs and even nuclear weapons.

At the same time, the subway can also be regarded as one of the largest three-defense systems, but well. Many people who have taken the subway know that these subway stations and passages generally only have an underground buffer area of more than ten meters.

Therefore, strictly speaking, the subway station is not one of the three fortifications that are too strict.

Because the effect played is not too big.

In many cases, the underground garage of a residential building is more reliable than this.

Having said all this, I am not talking nonsense, but saying that in Wendell City, where there is no subway and bomb shelters, it is difficult to effectively avoid the lethality of nuclear weapons.

……

In his camp, Zhang Shixin put on a pair of special sunglasses, and he sighed deeply: "I still use this thing." ”

Sinia, who also wore special sunglasses, despised Zhang Shixin angrily, and Grelian, who was on the side, glanced at this thing suspiciously, and finally wore it like Zhang Shixin.

……

At this time, the 2B1 artillery crew, wearing a full set of three-defense uniforms, carefully stuffed a shell with a nuclear energy symbol painted on the body of the cannon into the chamber under the protection of the dense defensive troops.

Due to the lack of effective guidance means, Zhang Shixin was only able to let these precious nuclear shells be detonated by means of tactile detonation.

Nuclear weapons, like many artillery shells, have the best lethality with an airburst effect.

However, it is simply impossible to carry out an air explosion in an urban area without a certain guidance.

Therefore, these shells can only be fired directly like ordinary shells.

After nearly three minutes of busy work, the leaders of the artillery teams reported to the commander that the reload was complete.

The commander used the radio station to communicate directly with Zhang Shixin, and after receiving Zhang Shixin's instructions to allow the launch, the commander waved his hand......

Again there was a strong whistling of cannonballs in the sky.

What appeared this time was no longer a conventional shell, but the most powerful killing weapon that Zhang Shixin had.

……

Zhang Shixin turned his back to Wendell City, quietly calculating something.

After a short while, Zhang Shixin saw that the night sky, which should have been quite deep and secluded, was illuminated by the strong white light emitted from Wendell City, and it suddenly became much brighter.

Then, the night sky was illuminated as if it were cloudy, and it was no longer a deep darkness.

At this time, Zhang Shixin shouted: "Turn back!" ”

In front of them were six mushroom clouds that were rising up and emitting a blazing fire.

Grelian looked at the six mushroom clouds that seemed to be getting smaller and smaller because of the distance, and felt that the power of these shells should not be too great.

However, Zhang Shixin and Xinia knew that these mushroom clouds were the flowers of hell that could guide all living beings to reincarnation.

……

Dozens of seconds ago, in a fairly intact building in the western part of Wendell City, a platoon of officers and soldiers who were ordered to guard here was eating their own canned food.

Suddenly, there was a sharp whistling sound in the sky, and there were several similar sounds faintly.

A soldier asked, "Sir, is it too late for the other side to start shelling at this time?" ”

The rebel platoon commander was about to say something, but he only heard an explosion, it should be a street not far from here, and he couldn't help but smile: "Anyway, it didn't hit us, whatever......

Before the rebel platoon commander could finish his words, an incomparably hot wave of qi directly engulfed his consciousness......

In a high-rise building more than 700 meters away, a large number of people whose eyes were burned out of holes one by one, and whose skin was severely burned by various rays, were wailing and soon dying in pain.

Fourteen hundred meters away, the rebel officers and soldiers were clutching at the blisters of their exposed skin from the rays, and their eyes were closed because they could no longer see. They don't have to suffer too much if their retinas are directly damaged by the blazing white light, because they will be the third batch of people to die.

Two thousand meters away, it was only 3,500 meters away from the explosion site of another nuclear shell......

It can be said that the explosive power of six nuclear shells covered almost the entire city of Wendell.

It can also be said that there is no lucky person who survives at this time......

……

After waiting for the six mushroom clouds to disperse, Zhang Shixin looked at Wendell City, which was constantly burning, and said to Graylian: "I hope you promise me that when everything is okay in the Hilton Empire, Wendell City will be the central point, and a radius of fifty kilometers will be designated as a forbidden area. At the same time, the food in this area is not allowed to appear in other places. ”

"Why am I giving this order?" Grelian felt the solemnity in Zhang Shixin's tone, and she felt that these weapons were not like what she saw, just looking at fun things.

Zhang Shixin smiled bitterly, and then said: "I just don't want more innocent people to die, and I don't want to be in this world in the future, because there are more innocent poor people in this way." ”

Zhang Shixin did not dare to say that the greatest harm of nuclear weapons is not the powerful lethality, but the nuclear radiation, which will not show signs of stopping for one or two hundred years.

In particular, uranium-238 has a half-life of more than 4 billion years.

It can be said that according to the standard of suitable human habitation, this area will not be able to meet this standard for two or three hundred years.

This is also the reason why the sarcophagus used to close the reactor area after the accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, because once all the radioactive elements are released, I am afraid that the Moscow metropolitan area will be seriously affected.

It can be said that the radiation impact caused by nuclear weapons, in many cases, is a little lighter than that of the nuclear power plant accident, but because the nuclear shell used by Zhang Shixin this time is not an air explosion, but a trigger detonation, it can be said that the concentration of radioactive elements left in Wendell City is quite high.

Therefore, Zhang Shixin did this just in case.

…………………………………………………… Dividing line ..........................................

Zhang Shixin's troops quickly left Wendell City, especially those slow tank self-propelled guns, which were directly pushed by the E-75B.

If you don't go, you can't go, although the wind direction is favorable to Zhang Shixin, but if the wind direction changes, those nuclear dust are not a good thing.

What Zhang Shixin, who was busy running away, didn't know was that when he was the leader of the rebel army, the patriarch of the Heiningen family, Livingstone? v？ Heningen received a message that made him desperate at this time.

……

Livingstone? v？ Heiningen had been rested at this time, and the battle with the last formed group force of the Hilton Empire, the Northern Army of the Hilton Empire, had been in a stalemate, so he couldn't rest at ease for so many days.

Tonight, he finally couldn't stand it anymore, so under the arrangement of the accompanying military doctor, he took a few sleeping pills and prepared to go to bed.

But his own brother Hurol? v？ Heiningen entered Livingstone's bedroom with a pale face and said a word:

"Big brother, I hope that the next news, you will be able to hold on to it after you know it."

"What's wrong?"

Hulor's gaze was a little evasive, and after swallowing his own saliva, he intermittently said a few words that made Livingstone quite dissatisfied: "Wendell City...... Wendell City ......"

"Wendell City lost? It's impossible, even the so-called hungry wolf of Capani can't capture Wendell in such a day's time, and didn't we receive news from Husol at dusk today, that he has already recovered the area abandoned by the other party? ”

"Big brother, cousin Husor...... and most of our troops stationed in Wendell City...... Almost all of them were wiped out, and few of the remaining people were able to do anything, they seemed to be cursed by some kind of curse, their skin was constantly cracking, and their physical condition was quite bad. ”

"It's impossible, the other party can't do such a thing no matter what!" Livingstone looked at his brother fiercely, because the news was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for him.

"Big brother, the other party used a weapon that we have never heard of, some wounded soldiers in better physical condition, before they lost consciousness, they kept saying that there were six pillars of fire like mushrooms in the city, and then they found that they couldn't contact the outside at all, and the energy conduction system on some locomotives was directly reimbursed, if it wasn't for the follow-up troops to arrive, I'm afraid we wouldn't know about this situation at all."

"Did those people say what Wendell is like right now?" Livingstone suddenly thought of a terrible connection, that is, Zhang Shixin's evacuation was directly related to the fact that they encountered such an attack, and the other party did not want that kind of weapon to even kill their own people by mistake.

"Big brother, the details of the situation are not clear, but according to the reports of some personnel, the personnel they sent to investigate the news have fallen into a coma after coming back, and have been helped back by some people who are still sober, but after a period of time, those people have developed very serious various diseases, and some of the defenders who have been rescued, many of them have died."

After listening to Hulor's words, Livingstone spurted out a mouthful of blood and passed out.

After nearly half an hour of first aid, Livingstone finally came to his senses, and he said something that surprised many members of the Heiningen family who rushed over: "Now evacuate all those who are still alive in Wendell City immediately, and let the reinforcements who are still on the road come back immediately!" We give up Wendell City! ”

"Big brother, we must not give up the most important stronghold of the family."

"Patriarch, why don't I lead the troops to support Wendell City. I can assure you that Wendell City is in my hands and will never be lost. ”

"Patriarch, I can also promise you!"

……

Listening to these people patting their chests and saying these words, Livingstone finally couldn't hold back his anger and roared loudly: "What do you know?! The other party obviously wanted to dig a pit for us to jump into, and this pit was enough to bury all of us directly and couldn't fill it! Now I repeat, the withdrawal of all the troops from Wendell City!! ”

Livingstone's roar left these members of the Heiningen family rather overwhelmed. However, they had to look at each other, and then said in unison to Livingstone:

"Got it, Patriarch."

After everyone had left, Livingstone said in a rather weak voice, "Hulor, how many of our troops have already arrived in Wendell City before dusk?" ”

Hulor's expression was a little gloomy, because he knew very well that his eldest brother asked him about this to find out how many troops they had lost under such an attack.

Hurol naturally knew the approximate value of this number, and he didn't want to say it, but after seeing his eldest brother's pale face, he could only say truthfully: "More than 50,000 people." ”

After hearing this number, Livingstone spat out a mouthful of blood again, and he clutched his chest, because the loss of this day was enough to put all the strength he had gained for the family after he became the patriarch.

It can be said that this time he lost what he should have been proud of.

It also lost the Heiningen family's painstaking management in Wendell City for many years.

Although it is not enough to make the Heiningen family collapse, even if he really becomes the monarch of this country, after the success of the armed rebellion, he will not be able to effectively suppress the support forces in the Hilton Empire.

Coupled with the fact that the outside [***] team, which is now constantly advancing from the southeastern border towards the **Hiltonis, Livingstone discovered that he had been planning for many years, and it came to naught in a flash!

"Zhang Shixin! I won't let you go!! Yes!!! After Livingstone finished saying this with a hideous expression, he spurted out a mouthful of blood again, and immediately collapsed on the bed.

"Medic!! Military!!! Seeing his eldest brother fainting, Hulor hurriedly shouted loudly to the military medical officer who was waiting outside.

When the medic checked on Livingstone, Hollore shook his head when he saw the medic and said, "The Duke is dead." ”

This news was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for Hurol, because he never imagined that his brother, patriarch, who was known as the most outstanding brother of the Heiningen family, would die like this.

He couldn't accept that in such a short period of time, there were several changes in the family that completely caught him off guard, and he suddenly found that he, as a younger brother, could not compare with his brother at all.

The only thing he could do was to regather the people who had not been gone for long......

……

Of course, Zhang Shixin didn't know about his decision and the actions he had implemented, and he actually received this rather unexpected surprise.

He's busy running to safety. After all, if his troops had a big problem because of his carelessness, he would have no place to cry.

However, Zhang Shixin didn't know that his worries were quite unnecessary, because in many ways, Wendell City, which was called the "dead city" in later generations, did not have a force enter the city until more than two hundred years later to study what happened in the war of that year.

According to a manuscript of "three defenses" left by Zhang Shixin, they entered the ruins of Wendell City with full equipment.

The following is a summary of the investigation of this force:

Six large irregular craters nearly 300 meters wide have become a moss-covered backwater lake, and in some areas of the periphery, many buildings have been severely weathered and crystallized by ultra-high temperatures.

Among the wreckage of many of the collapsed buildings are bones buried, some of which are even scattered among the remains of the streets.

Many tanks and armored vehicles at that time could not be used, and the armor plates of some tank combat vehicles could still detect various radiating elements with very high values.

This is a bit different from what we expected, because in many places except for the lake, the radiation is at a fairly safe level, and it seems that the radiation had a greater impact on the metal and some bones.

The Duke's Palace, which was quite famous at the time, has become the center of a backwater lake, so we can't look for the treasures of the Heiningen family.

But we made an unexpected discovery, that is, when we entered the place that was ordered to be a no-man's land, not only could we not detect the excess radiation value, but we also found that it had become a paradise for animals and plants.

Many extinct species can be found here, and there are quite a few of them.

So, we want it to be a national park that, at some point, gives people a sense of life.

The war destroyed the homeland of mankind at that time, but it created a new world.
