Chapter 45 Nuclear weapons
When Zhang Yang nodded, everyone in the submarine fell silent.
It was a real nuclear bomb, not a glass ball.
The deterrent power of nuclear weapons is often not after launch, but before launch, and is a bargaining chip used by nuclear powers to negotiate.
However, in order to prevent other incidents, on this Typhoon-class nuclear submarine belonging to the umbrella company, only two SS-N-20 submarine ballistic missiles are equipped with 20 missile silos, and the range of this solid rocket is 4,500 nautical miles, with a deviation of about 650 meters, and each carrying six split-guided thermonuclear warheads, each of which is 100,000 tons.
The sound of breathing in the command cabin was clearly audible, and two faint white gases could be seen coming out of the tips of everyone's noses, and even the two pilots were staring wide-eyed, they had never seen the largest nuclear submarine in Shijie launch a nuclear bomb since they worked for the umbrella.
The most powerful weapon known to mankind would destroy the entire planet in the event of a new round of nuclear war, and the name of nuclear weapons is widely heard, and Japan's Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the only countries that have enjoyed the taste of nuclear bombs, still have the shadow of nuclear weapons.
At 8:15 a.m. on August 6, 1945, the U.S. Army Air Corps B-29 Superfortress bomber "Enolagai" dropped a uranium bomb codenamed "Little Boy" into Hiroshima City, which exploded in the air at a distance of 580 meters from the ground, killing and injuring 200,000 of Hiroshima's 245,000 people, and the entire city was reduced to rubble.
At 11:02 a.m. on August 9, 1945, the U.S. military launched its second atomic bomb attack on Japan after the attack on Hiroshima. A commando team consisting of 5 B-29 bombers dropped the atomic bomb "Fat Man" on the center of Nagasaki. The "Fat Man" is a plutonium bomb with a length of about 3.6 meters and a diameter of 1.5 meters. It weighs about 4.9 tonnes and has a TNT equivalent of 22,000 tonnes and a blast height of 503 metres.
More than 100,000 people out of Nagasaki's 230,000 people were killed or injured and missing that day, and 60 percent of the city's buildings were destroyed. The atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki are still being devastated to this day, and survivors suffer from the after-effects of radiation, including cancer, leukemia and skin burns. According to statistics from relevant Japanese departments, the number of people killed in Hiroshima and Nagasaki as a result of atomic bombing injuries has exceeded 250,000 and 140,000 respectively.
The atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki forced Japan to surrender on the sixth day after the second attack.
The combined yield of these two atomic bombs is less than 100,000 tons, which means that it is not as large as the yield of a 100,000-ton nuclear warhead carried by the Typhoon class.
Although it is now the end of Shijie, the 6th mass extinction of life on Earth. Even billions of human beings have all died and become zombies, and only a few hundred thousand survivors are still surviving, but the sensitive term nuclear weapons has once again touched everyone's nerves.
Before that. The umbrella has spread the secret base to all Shijie, only in the "artificial superpower shiyanjihua" centered on Zhang Yang. No less than 10 nuclear warheads with a yield of more than 100,000 tons were used. In order to use it to "purify" Shiyan, the site was purged, but unlike the launch of a nuclear bomb with his own hands, although there were no anti-nuclear members and international organizations to judge and blame, no one dared to take this responsibility.
"Goo."
The thin man sitting in front of the operating instrument swallowed a mouthful of saliva, feeling a little dry in his throat, and then tried to suggest that Zhang Yang cancel the proposal.
"Sir. I think you can think about it, of course, we are only responsible for the execution...... Command. ”
This guy automatically classified Zhang Yang into the ranks of "chiefs", and easily blended into Zhang Yang's small circle. So that he can have more weight to ensure his safety after arriving at the survivor gathering place.
"I've decided, if any of you have any objections, please speak up in advance."
Zhang Yang glanced at everyone, the target of this bombardment was the disgusting creature of the final mutant of the G virus, and destroyed it along with the other surviving zombies, which was different from attacking humans, which made everyone not feel too heavy guilt.
"I have no opinion."
"Ditto."
……
Everyone present either chose to give up or choose to agree, and no one spoke out against it, after all, the other party is a terrifying biochemical monster, and it has already desecrated the dignity of "life".
Zhang Yang nodded, he had already expected this situation, he looked at the thin man and asked about the conditions of the launch.
Because this nuclear submarine belongs to the umbrella and does not belong to any country, aside from political factors, the purpose of the umbrella's purchase of this nuclear submarine is to safely transport biological and chemical weapons, and at the same time carry a certain amount of nuclear weapons to warn other countries, and the personnel responsible for the launch of nuclear weapons are directly under the command of the umbrella's top management.
Without the military's strict secrecy regulations and without the command and deployment of the Military Commission, this nuclear submarine, which has the right to launch on its own, does not have the cumbersome and harsh passwords and procedures of ordinary nuclear submarines; as long as the launch code is entered and a senior member of the umbrella is present to supervise it, the nuclear bomb can be launched.
Soon, the thin man called up the weapons information, which showed that the nuclear submarine was equipped with two SS-N-20 shallow-surface ballistic missiles, each carrying six split-guided thermonuclear warheads, each of which was 100,000 tons, and the launch requirements were six dynamic passwords and fingerprints and pupil information on the top level of the protective umbrella.
The password was naturally in the hands of the upper echelons of the umbrella, Zhang Yang didn't expect the fat man and the thin man to get this, Zhang Yang let King Ida contact Wesker and explain his purpose.
"Nuclear bomb launch code? No problem, there is the password of this nuclear submarine in the database of the red queen, I can hack in it and help you find it, but he automatically changes it every day, which will take some time. ”
As a live-action version of the Matrix, Wesker and the Red Queen have become the overlords of two network terminals, one is a purely highly intelligent mechanical life, and the other is because the virus has gained the ability to invade networks and computers, and the two guys have been checking and balancing each other.
"Sir, if we want to launch these two missiles, we must first reach a relatively safe area, if we want the electronic instruments to not have problems, the insurance distance is 100 nautical miles, otherwise the nuclear radiation and shock wave will make all the electronic instruments fail, if it is a submarine explosion, it may produce a tsunami, and the ice is not conducive to wet launches, it is recommended to advance to the warm sea area in the south."
The thin man suggested to Zhang Yang that a total of 12 nuclear warheads with a yield of 100,000 tons would explode at the same place, and the power would be extremely terrifying.
"How long will our food and fuel last?"
"The fuel can continue to sail for 18 hours, and there is not much food and fresh water, which can only last one day."
Zhang Yang glanced at the electronic map on the instrument, Kamchatka Bay is located in the northeast of Japan, about 1,800 kilometers away from Hokkaido, if a nuclear bomb is launched to bomb Kamchatka Bay, then the plane sent by the umbrella company to pick up his party will also have to move the location.
"Can you find any safe havens on the map?"
"130 nautical miles away, there is a harbor, the temperature is relatively warm, there should be no ice, and there are natural mountains around it, which can block the tsunami caused by the nuclear explosion, and we can take shelter there."
"Then set the destination there, and Wesker will help us guide the shooting coordinates with satellites."
After determining the route to leave, the Typhoon-class nuclear submarine suddenly burst out of momentum and headed towards the pale blue bay, which meant that the temperature there was around 6 degrees Celsius, and there would be no thick ice everywhere in Kamchatka Bay.
The speed used is 1 knot = 1 knot/h = 1.852 km, the underwater diving speed of the typhoon is 25 knots, and it can be reached in about 5 hours, and with the clumsy speed of the final variant of the G virus, it is fast to advance 1 km on land in 5 hours.
And a moment later, Zhang Yang got a detailed chat about the final mutant of the G virus from Wesker, and finally understood why this ugly slime was so tenacious, but also because it was not a pure sea creature, so it only temporarily breathed at the bottom of the sea for a while, and then after expelling some zombie limbs and excess garbage in his body, he could reduce his density, and then use the buoyancy of sea water to reach the surface of the sea, and then go ashore.
In the records, Zhang Yang's guess was verified, and when the first final variant of the G virus was developed, Wesker had already left the umbrella, and the purpose of the remaining acting CEO Shiyan was to use the devouring properties of the G virus to eliminate the zombies around the world, and the G virus variant would eventually die naturally, which can be said to be very ideal.
However, after being infected with the T-virus, the Red Queen used the mechanical spider to control everyone, and at the same time terminated the Jihua of the G virus variant, which was kept as a special specimen, and the place where it was held was just below the Red Square in SimCity Moscow.
Because next to it is the wreckage of the base, so this G virus mutant can dive into the sea water at any time to prey on the corpses of the remaining zombies and other biochemical monsters, if you wait until natural death, it will take at least 1 year or more, 1 year is enough for too many things to happen, Wesker promised to help Zhang Yang launch a nuclear bomb, and he also had the idea of killing the final mutant of the G virus.
After their nuclear submarine went away, the G virus mutant in the form of a slime slowly crawled out of the ruins of the base, and many food debris that had not been fully digested, human limbs, were excreted, and then the shape of the mutant was like a big cake, slowly floating away with the buoyancy of the seawater.

I'm going to drop a nuclear bomb, 12 nuclear warheads with a yield of 100,000 tons, and there is a wooden leak on the domineering side?
