Chapter 318: Extremely Terrifying Anthrax Virus
"What's wrong?" Seeing Sun Xian so flustered, Su Ming hurriedly stood up and asked nervously, Sun Xian is also an intelligence officer, so she won't make such a fuss, is there something wrong?
"Those East Turkistan elements have got some anthrax bombs to deal with us, let's get out of here quickly." Only then did Su Ming notice that Sun Xian was still holding two gas masks in her hands.
"Anthrax bomb, what, like the name of a bacteriological bomb?" Su Ming ignored it, what bacteria are there that the existing technology can't overcome, and what's the use of running away alone, you can't do it here.
"How far is this bomb attacking, and how is it delivered?" Su Ming took the gas mask and experienced it, it was stuffy and uncomfortable, and he took it off again and asked.
"I don't know the specifics of this, but Sister Yun got a message from her channel, saying that those East Turkistan elements no longer knew that they had obtained a batch of ceramic anthrax bombs through an arms dealer and were going to drop them here." Sun Xian was stunned for a long time, and now she felt that she was making a little fuss, even if they really wanted to come, it was impossible for them to come over so soon.
"Ruolin, you let our Thor team all be dispatched to guard within ten kilometers of our base, prohibit any unknown people from approaching our base, prohibit all foreign vehicles from entering, including vehicles transporting daily necessities and supplies, and pay special attention to guarding against the air, no matter who comes, do not approach us, if there is any disobedience, you can open fire immediately." Su Ming took the phone and arranged for Li Ruolin to start acting, no matter what kind of bomb it is, it will only be counted if it is dropped here in the end, no matter who it is, if they don't let them in, they won't have a way.
"By the way, how does this virus spread?" Su Ming thought that this was a very important point, if it was transmitted through the air, then wearing a gas mask was still effective, if it was transmitted by contact, then you had to be careful, you couldn't touch anything that shouldn't be touched, and your own base only had simple medical forces, and there was no virus detection method at all, which was the most serious, if the virus had already invaded, then it would be too late to say anything.
"This germ can be transmitted through skin contact, air inhalation and food, if there is no wound on the skin, the problem is not too serious, at most there is a little problem with the skin, but if you inhale and eat, it is very troublesome, there is not enough time to treat." Sun Xian introduced Su Ming worriedly.
"I hope your information is fast and accurate enough, otherwise it will be really troublesome." Su Ming didn't have any way, he had no experience in dealing with such a thing as bacteria, he didn't know what to do, and he didn't know if Pakistan had this kind of scientific and technological means? Su Ming was just about to call, and Sun Xian had already told Su Ming that there was no need to count on the Pakistani side, this kind of germ was very difficult to deal with.
At this time, Zhong Haiyun walked over quickly with a stack of materials, looking at her expression was also very solemn, it is estimated that she did not expect to encounter this kind of thing, biological and chemical weapons and nuclear weapons are also listed as the two weapons strictly prohibited by the international community, I did not expect Su Shi to encounter this kind of thing, Su Ming really regretted not going over sooner and using nuclear weapons to destroy these girls.
"This is some information about anthrax that I just received, and I'm going to explain it, and you know it well." After Zhong Haiyun listened to Su Ming's response plan, he also recognized Su Ming's plan, and now he had to hope that the other party had not come over, and at the same time Su Ming ordered Jin Yuzhen and Jin Qiaozhen to check that the living materials in the camp were enough for a few people, and it was a big deal that he personally went to China to purchase materials, and it was impossible for the other party to send the virus to China.
"First of all, this bacterium is very easy to cultivate, but it is very difficult to kill, it can survive for decades in the general soil, and can survive for 90 years in the fur products of the animal, after direct exposure to the sun for 100 hours, boiling for 40 minutes, hot soaking at 140 °C for 3 hours, 110 °C high-pressure steam for 60 minutes, and soaking in 10% formalin solution for 15 minutes, new carbolic acid solution (5%) and 20% bleach solution for more than a few days, the bacteria that generate spores can be killed."
Su Ming originally wanted to let the country have some disinfectant to spray and spray, but after hearing this, he also gave up this idea, such a complicated step almost couldn't kill it, just forget the disinfectant or something, so he motioned Zhong Haiyun to continue, what do you want to deal with, you must first understand it.
"And this bacterium has a very short incubation period, and once it occurs, it can cause death quickly, it is a very deadly germ, and if it were not for the anthrax bacteria, the hippos of Africa would have ruled the whole of Africa long ago, and it works on most vertebrates, including us humans."
Zhong Haiyun introduced a few more examples to Su Ming, used to use the terrible anthrax virus, compared with the plague, it is as harmless as a white rabbit, there is a case in our country, during the anti-Japanese war, the 731 unit of the army once put a batch of anthrax virus in China.
A group of military horses were sealed into a cave because they were infected with anthrax, because if you kill them and let their blood flow into the land, it will also cause pollution, but after decades have passed, people have gradually forgotten the existence of this cave, and by chance, the cave was dug up, and the military horses have long become a pile of white bones, but the anthrax virus is still alive, and almost all the people in the village are infected.
In 1918, a German spy carried a glass test tube of anthrax virus to London to release, I don't know why, the virus was not released, and finally to this day, the British Museum found this test tube in the utility room, fortunately, the people here have enough experience not to open it rashly, and after testing, it was found that it was left by the German spy that year.
Not only Germany, but also Britain and the United States were developing anthrax as a biological weapon during World War II, and they experimented with a anthrax bomb on a small island in the Atlantic Ocean. Since then, no vertebrates have survived on the island.
Decades have passed, and the British political axe is eager to undo this mistake. They sent the navy to lay down a steel pipe with holes every 1 meter on the island, and then, dilute formaldehyde with seawater and press it into the soil with a powerful pump. The anthrax contamination was finally eliminated, but they soon discovered that it was not a good solution. The 1-meter-deep soil was soaked with formaldehyde-laden seawater, and the island was devoid of vegetation and could not recover.
Still in England, there was a man who bought a piece of land. It was a former slaughterhouse that was abandoned after being contaminated with anthrax. After so many years, there were no more cases of anthrax, so the original owner sold the land.
The new owner of the land plowed the land, which had been abandoned for many years, and as a result, livestock continued to die on the surrounding farms. After the health department checked it, it was found that it was because he had turned over the anthrax bacteria deep in the original soil. The land was abandoned again, and the health department ordered him to decontaminate it. This man tried everything he could to disinfect it, but no matter what he did, Bacillus anthracis could always be detected at every examination.
He built a high fence around the land, and the cattle and sheep of his neighbors would still get sick. He covered the entire land with concrete, but the bacteria were still found on the periphery of the cement. For the sake of this land, he went bankrupt and died of exhaustion on this land, and no one even dared to give it away.
"Okay, I already know the horror of this germ, do you think there is any way to deal with it?" Su Ming was horrified when she heard this, and quickly asked Zhong Haiyun to stop, since she had found so much information, there must be how to prevent this germ.
"There is no means, if the base is really contaminated, then there is only one way, which is to abandon the base, so the best way is to stop the other side before they use this bomb." Zhong Haiyun flipped through the back of the information, and said that the Soviet Union had carried out similar experiments, and they had cultivated varieties with better resistance and more powerful characteristics, and it was said that there were also varieties that only infected a fixed group of people, and a large number of strong men died because of the leakage of germs.
"NND, if it really doesn't work, I will use the way of others, and return the body of others, go to Lao Maozi to get some of this kind of bomb, use it for him first, and see what he does." Su Ming was almost ready to use nuclear weapons, what was he afraid of, besides, the other party was ready to use it first, and he couldn't complain about himself, but Su Ming quickly thought of an inspiration, where this news might be used.
"What did you get this news from?" Thinking of this, Su Ming asked Zhong Haiyun.
"I have my own source of information, what's wrong? What do you want? Zhong Haiyun immediately looked at Su Ming with a vigilant look.
"No, I mean, if you make this public, will anyone believe it?" Su Ming's eyes rolled bonelessly, thinking about how to get Zhong Haiyun to agree to this matter, according to what he said, once this news is announced, she will give up this intelligence channel, I don't know if this intelligence channel is important to her.
"I think there's a better way, aren't you an adviser to the Iraqi political axe?" Zhong Haiyun understood what Su Ming meant in the blink of an eye, and immediately thought of a better way.
"yes, what's wrong?" Su Ming didn't understand it at first, but he quickly thought of a possibility, and asked Zhong Haiyun with wide eyes: "They bought the bomb from Iraq?" ”
Zhong Haiyun immediately smiled and nodded.
