Chapter 170: Neutron Bomb
The neutron bomb, the third generation of nuclear bombs, is known as a tactical nuclear bomb that can be used on the battlefield. "Top Point Novel,
Chen Xiao only had a very simple concept in his mind, after all, he was not one of those experts, and there was no place in the world except Hiroshima that had nuclear weapons for actual operations.
"1,000 tons of TNT equivalent, is it enough?" This was Chen Xiao's first reaction in his mind after hearing Wang Tianfang's words.
And if Chen Xiao is not mistaken, the neutron bomb does not rely on the power of the explosion to kill, but relies on the highly penetrating nuclear radiation to kill the enemy's living forces.
But that's just for ordinary people, if it's a phantom spider and a thousand-year-old dryad, no one will know whether the damage caused by this equivalent has any effect or not.
Wang Tianfang heard this and explained: "At present, the neutron bombs in the military's possession are generally 1,000 tons of TNT equivalent, and they are also the only tactical nuclear bombs that are currently allowed to be used in cities. Other superweapons, while incredibly lethal, have catastrophic consequences that are permanent and irreversible.
If it is not a real last resort, the decision-making level will never use it.
Moreover, there are a large number of high-value things in Egret Island, including a lot of scientific research equipment and equipment, as well as many precious research materials left by science and technology departments.
Taking into account all the combined factors, the decision to use a neutron bomb was already a very good result. After all, Egret Island is not an ordinary city, the economy is highly developed, and there are many high-value technologies. ”
If it were an ordinary person, Wang Tianfang would not even have the obligation to inform, but Chen Xiao would be different. Regardless of his strength. Just discover the super mutant creatures in Heron Island. You are already qualified to know about it.
In addition, Chen Xiao's strength was there, and he directly saved tens of thousands of soldiers that time, so Wang Tianfang would explain to him.
Otherwise, the military order is like a mountain, and he does not need to explain it to anyone at all, just carry out the order directly.
Hearing Wang Tianfang's explanation, Chen Xiao didn't say much, after all, he was just an outsider, and there was no way to interfere in decision-making.
"Then I'll make a suggestion. It is better to send the neutron bomb to the inside of the subway line for detonation, and the underside of the city square, which has been hollowed out, is directly detonated on it, and the effect is estimated to be very unsatisfactory. ”
"You can rest assured that we have begun to mobilize high-precision detection satellites and unmanned detection equipment, and have begun to conduct a comprehensive scan of the terrain below.
The reason for the preparation is forty-eight hours. We also need to calculate the most reasonable detonation position to ensure that the neutron bomb can exert maximum lethality. ”
Speaking of which. Wang Tianfang hesitated for a moment before continuing: "It's just that in the Academy of Sciences, there are some people who oppose the decision to use nuclear weapons, because they suspect that nuclear radiation will exacerbate the mutation of mutated organisms, which is definitely not a good thing in the long run.
If it weren't for the fact that the neutron bomb only existed for a very short period of time for nuclear radiation, I am afraid that this time it would have been strongly stopped by those scientists of the Academy of Sciences. But they are also worried that the strong nuclear radiation from the explosion of the neutron bomb can already cause mutated organisms to mutate again.
However, for the time being, whether nuclear radiation will illuminate further mutations in mutant organisms is still in the experimental stage, and no definite results have yet been released.
Therefore, the use of neutron bombs this time is also a big risk, and if nuclear radiation really causes mutated organisms, it will not be good news. ”
Hearing Wang Tianfang's long list of words, Chen Xiao was also silent for a moment, although he didn't understand much, but he could empathize with Wang Tianfang's concerns.
And the reason why we have not made a decision until now may have a lot to do with various concerns under the comprehensive factors.
"I don't know anything about biology, but I know that if that spider doesn't die on Egret Island, you'll have to get away from this place as soon as possible."
Hearing Chen Xiao's words, Wang Tianfang spoke: "This is the main reason for our consideration, Guannan Industrial Zone is a heavy industrial zone, and it cannot be easily abandoned. I also fully trust your judgment, so I can only take risks. ”
Speaking of this, Wang Tianfang's voice slowed down and continued: "I will inform you an hour before the official launch of the neutron bomb, and when the time comes, you must remember that you must stay at least one kilometer away from the center of the explosion. ”
"Okay, I'm not going to mess around with something like this." Chen Xiao said.
Hanging up the phone, Chen Xiao took a deep breath, and the old demon next to him came with an inquiring look, although sitting next to him, through Chen Xiao's words, he could also understand everything, but he didn't know exactly what was going on.
"The military is already planning to use neutron bombs against that big spider." Chen Xiao said simply.
"Neutron bombs, I'm afraid it's the only option!" The old demon said.
"That's right, I heard that the only option is to use neutron bombs, a thousand tons of TNT equivalent, hoping to really kill that big spider." Chen Xiao said.
"I don't know how we managed to escape there, but I can feel the strength of the big spider. I estimate that unless it is a space-based kinetic energy weapon, or a large-yield nuclear bomb, it really can't be killed. The old demon said.
When Chen Xiao heard this, he just shook his head, and sighed in his heart, "Hope!" ”
No one continued to speak, and the atmosphere quickly fell silent, and the five-person group downstairs seemed to stop chatting and snored one after another.
I didn't sleep long in the early morning, and with the battle with the red boar, everyone was tired.
Chen Xiao was no exception, although he didn't feel anything about fighting with the red wild boar, he also felt a little tired.
Soon, there was more snoring in the villa, and Chen Xiao quickly fell asleep.
It wasn't until the sun was in the west that Chen Xiao slowly opened his eyes and took a nap for a few hours, and the fatigue had disappeared from his body.
When he opened his eyes, the old demon who was sleeping directly on the chair next to him also opened his eyes at the same time.
And the two little Lori's also woke up immediately.
It's just that when Chen Xiao was about to get up to wash up, he suddenly heard the sound of charcoal burning outside.
A strange look flashed in his eyes, as he could now clearly hear the sound of five even breaths in the hall.
And make sure that no one went out to make a fire while he was sleeping. Even, no one has ever moved in the villa.
In this regard, Chen Xiao is very confident, because when he sleeps, he also has one eye open. After all, in this crisis-ridden apocalypse, if you sleep too hard, you will really die at any time.
Not being careless at any time has become a benchmark for everyone living in this world.
Walking towards the ensuite bathroom, he immediately turned around and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, opened the floor-to-ceiling window very lightly, and the first time he walked to the balcony, his eyes immediately looked out of the villa.
There were no auditory hallucinations just now, and the flames that were extinguished by Chen Xiao with water burned again. It's just that there is no figure around.
The old demon also walked to the balcony and muttered, "Could it be that you didn't extinguish the feeling and rekindled it?" ”
"Let's go down and see." Chen Xiao put down the next sentence, jumped off the balcony directly, and ran towards the basketball court at the gate.
The old demon also immediately followed, and the two little loli followed.
Coming to the edge of the fire and glancing at the surrounding items, Chen Xiao was already sure that something must have come here to light a fire while they were resting.
Because a large part of the mutated pork that was put aside was missing, even the seasoning jar was gone.
The firewood collected by the five-person group was also running out.
"Who did it, and we didn't hear anything." Chen Xiao muttered in a low voice.
"Now it's certain that it's definitely not a mutated creature, otherwise who would have started the fire." The old demon said.
Chen Xiao just nodded slightly, and there was no thought in his mind, just when he was thinking about whether it was really man-made, a slight sound suddenly came from a distance.
The sound came from behind another higher peak on the opposite side of the mountain, at the top of which was separated by a high barbed wire fence.
The mountains and forests close to Chen Xiao's side are all contracted by the owner of this villa.
On the other hand, Chen Xiao remembered that it was contracted by a Taiwanese business owner, and it was also regarded as a private holiday villa.
At the moment when the voice came, Chen Xiao ran towards the opposite mountain without hesitation, hundreds of meters in a straight line, and in less than two seconds, he had already arrived.
On the top of the mountain, Chen Xiao stood on a cement pillar wrapped in barbed wire, looking at the not small mountain forest under his feet.
However, as far as the eye can see, there is only silence, and a villa of considerable size stands on the mountainside below.
Nothing was found in the withered yellow woods, and Chen Xiao's eyes immediately fell on the villa.
"Let's go down and have a look." Glancing at the old demon and the two little loli who followed him, Chen Xiao said a word and jumped down directly.
Soon, the four of them came to the door of this villa, and when they saw the closed doors and windows everywhere, Chen Xiao shouted loudly: "Is there anyone inside?" ”
One second passed, two seconds passed, and after Chen Xiao waited for nearly ten seconds, he continued to shout: "If there is no one, we will go in." ”
Still without any response, Chen Xiao turned around and signaled a cautious look to the old demon, took out the staff of judgment, and directly unscrewed the doorknob of the villa gate.
When the door opened, a strong putrid smell came to the nostrils, and in the hall of the villa, there were more than a dozen corpses lying horizontally, and they were all seriously decomposed.
The strong smell emanated from these badly decomposed corpses.
At this scene, Chen Xiao just frowned slightly, and walked in directly, he already had a high immunity to such a scene. (To be continued......)
