Chapter 229
Atomic Town is just a place where all the researchers of the Jinwu Project and their families work and live.
The place where the mushroom egg was tested was on a four-sided slope about 100 kilometers southeast of Atomic Town.
It is also located deep in the Taklamakan Desert.
It is far from people and deep in the desert of no man's land.
Detonation is most appropriate here.
As early as half a year ago, the engineering unit built a nuclear test base here.
This nuclear test base is fully equipped for various tests.
Changes in the data can be detected after the detonation.
At the very center of the nuclear test site is a simulated town.
The area of the town is not small, it is several square kilometers.
Buildings with architectural styles from various regions.
For example, Yinguo-style buildings, American-style high-rise buildings, Maozi-style cathedrals and so on.
There are also many animals in the city.
There are cattle, sheep, pigs, geese, chickens, ducks, and so on.
At the very center of these buildings is an iron tower that reaches a height of hundreds of meters.
At the top of the tower, a cylindrical bomb weighing up to 5 tons was placed.
However, around the bomb is a skull emblem.
It is the first mushroom egg developed and designed by the Jinwu Project over several years - Miss Qiu.
From the name 160 here, it can be seen that it is Zhang Xueming's handwriting.
This 5-ton Miss Qiu uses a gun-type configuration.
The principle is to shoot a piece of plutonium-239 below the critical mass into three annular plutonium-239, which are also at a lower critical mass.
This can cause a chain reaction in which the entire supercritical mass of plutonium-239 fission.
So as to achieve the purpose of detonating the entire Miss Qiu.
Its design has an explosive yield estimated at around 20,000 tons.
It contains just over 60 kilograms of plutonium-239.
In order to refine the 60 kilograms of weapons-grade plutonium-239, it took more than half a year.
Just like that, the manufacturing cost is almost more than 10 million RMB.
And to build an H-40 strategic bomber is about 2 million.
A large observation post was set up on the peak of the Pinnacle Mountain, some 30 kilometres away from the four-sided slope nuclear test site.
The terrain here is very high, more than 1,000 meters long.
With a telescope, you can see the full picture of the nuclear test site very clearly.
Early in the morning, a large convoy crossed the desert road and arrived at this observatory.
When they saw the nuclear test site far away, their minds were foggy.
I didn't know what Zhang Xueming brought them here for.
Could this town be the site of weapons testing?
But why so far away?
It's hard to see clearly.
Zhang Zuoxiang also curiously came to Zhang Xueming's side at this moment.
"Chairman, you brought us here this time just to see that big iron egg, right?"
After looking at it with a telescope.
He directly locked onto the Miss Qiu on the tower, which was very similar to the aerial bomb.
Not only him, almost everyone found out.
The whole town is empty except for people.
The most interesting thing is this iron tower and Miss Qiu located on the top of the tower.
After hearing Zhang Zuoxiang's question.
Everyone listened carefully with their ears propped up.
Li, Bai, and Chen Shaokuan also deliberately took a few steps forward.
The most senior person present was Zhang Zuoxiang.
With him asking, he should still be able to ask something.
Since they have already arrived here, Zhang Xueming naturally will not hide anything.
He nodded and said, "That's right, it is the final result of the Jinwu plan, called nuclear weapons."
It also has a beautiful name called Miss Qiu.
Do you think it's just an ordinary bombshell that doesn't look any different in appearance? "
To say that the person who knows the power of the heavy bomb best is undoubtedly Air Force Commander Xu Tianhang.
He nodded and said, "It really doesn't look different on the outside.
However, since it has spent a lot of our manpower and material resources on research and development, it can also be called a superweapon by the chairman. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) )
(CJCH) Its internal structure must be very important. "
Zhang Xueming smiled, nodded and said: "That's right, I won't say how powerful it is, and you will be able to see it with your own eyes in an hour."
But I advise you to be prepared.
Because it's really dazzling and shocking. "
At the Shimianpo nuclear test site, more than 100 staff wearing radiation protection suits are conducting final tests on all equipment.
Ensure that they can transmit data back to the observatory as soon as possible before they are destroyed.
At the top of the tower, there are also three staff members who rely on cranes to carry out inspections.
Look at the time when all the indicators on the instrument are green.
It also means that everything is working properly.
About half an hour later.
The leader waved his hand.
"Everyone boarded the car and evacuated, evacuated as quickly as possible."
Soon a long convoy left here.
Everyone also knows that the birth of superweapons has entered the countdown.
At this time, Li Hongwei said to Zhang Xueming: "Chairman, everything is ready, and it can detonate in half an hour." "
This half hour is extraordinarily long and painful for everyone.
Even Zhang Xueming is the same.
Although he has seen quite a few videos of nuclear explosions in later generations.
This 200,000-ton small-yield Miss Qiu is really not enough to see in front of the nuclear weapons detonated in these videos.
But that's not the case now.
This is Huaxia's first nuclear weapon.
And it was developed ahead of the countries of the world.
The first time the West began to conduct nuclear weapons research was Germany.
The project began in 1939 after the Czech Republic.
Because there are a lot of uranium mines in the Czech Republic.
And Germany also has the best and largest number of physicists in the world.
Under the leadership of founder Heisenberg, Germany's nuclear weapons program was established.
And the time for establishing nuclear weapons projects such as England and the United States is even more late.
However, Zhang Xueming already knows these things.
Naturally, the West will not be allowed to complete the development of nuclear weapons so smoothly.
The more they develop, the more favorable it will be for Huaxia.
Of course, it is impossible to prevent them from developing it.
With the advancement of technology, it is not very difficult to really make this thing.
It is only necessary to delay their development.
As time passed, half an hour passed quickly.
When I saw that the countdown to the strong has entered the last minute.
Sun Hongwei picked up the radio walkie-talkie.
"Have all the personnel been evacuated?"
"Report to the commander-in-chief, all personnel have been withdrawn to safety."
"Okay, all the positions are in place.
Now I declare the countdown to detonation. "。
