Chapter 727 Thunder!
Next to the control panel, there are several cabinets standing there, with equipment mounted on them. On top of the equipment, pointers are swinging, various digital red lights are flashing, and indicator lights of various colors are flashing in an orderly manner.
As the phone rang, instructions came.
Inside the bunker, a comrade gave the order: "Power on!"
At the control panel, a comrade who was well prepared pressed the button.
As he moved, the pointers, numbers and display lights on several devices flashed.
"everything is normal!"
"Countdown!"
After the operation, the green indicator light on a device started jumping rapidly, and the red indicator light started from light No. 10 and jumped steadily towards light No. 1.
"Ten, nine, eight..."
The test personnel's voices counted firmly and forcefully, with a hint of anticipation.
"...Three, two, one!"
As the last count was sounded, outside the bunker, on the distant ground, a flash of light suddenly appeared!
There was no sound, and the flash of light appeared out of nowhere like the first axe in the creation of the world.
After the flash, a fireball with a black and red color suddenly rose from the ground in the distance and tumbled upwards.
By this time, everyone knew that it was a success!
Although there was no sound and no data could be seen, the strong light and fireball that could be seen dozens of kilometers away could only be seen from her!
The fireball continued to rise. Under the strong light and the reflection of the fireball, even though it was daytime and the sun was high in the sky, the surrounding environment was still reflected as if it was night. After a short while, people felt that it was daytime.
The light radiation had passed. Everyone stood up and rushed a few steps towards the direction of the fireball. Then they tried to rush again, but they still couldn't get under the fireball. They all stopped and cheered.
Some people are dancing, some are laughing, some are crying, and some are throwing hats...
The land dozens of kilometers away from the fireball suddenly became a sea of jubilation.
The comrades stationed in various observation posts suppressed their excitement and stared at the monitor screens intently.
The roofs of the explosion area, which were made of grass and wood, burst into flames the moment the white light appeared, and the burning smoke then floated outward under the pressure of the shock wave.
No matter what house it was, it was directly knocked down by the smoke and dust coming along the ground. Building materials flew outwards, but it was not the smoke and dust that knocked them down. The smoke and dust only indicated the arrival of the shock wave.
Cars, tanks, planes, cannons... that were close to the explosion center all caught fire in an instant. Even steel could not withstand the high temperature of the light radiation.
Those farther from the epicenter had all the inadequate attachments on their surfaces shaved off by the huge shock wave. Except for the tanks which were still basically maintaining their original shape, the others had become fragmented and twisted.
The Russians are crazy about developing tanks, and they really have their reasons.
Amid the cheers of all the comrades, the fireball continued to rise rapidly.
The black and red fireball gradually formed a huge mushroom in the air, and then continuous rumbling sounds began to be heard.
The continuous sound suppressed the cheers of the comrades, but the absence of sound was not important. Looking at their expressions, movements and postures, you could tell that they were all very happy.
After years of hard work and belt-tightening, countless people suddenly "disappeared" and were cut off from the world. They left no words behind, suddenly left their wives, could not see their lovers, could not take care of their children, could not honor their parents, all for this flash of light.
She can hold up our sky and straighten our backs.
During this process, some allies withdrew halfway, some enemies mocked and ridiculed us, some people ridiculed us for trying to put on our pants first, and some even guaranteed with their lives that we could not build it.
But all this is in vain, and we will not succumb to it.
Now, she is here!
With a flash of light, a roar, a wave of air, and a mushroom, she stood between heaven and earth, and tumbled above the nine heavens, announcing to the world that she, who belongs to us, was created!
As people's cheers resounded throughout the earth, researchers at the test base were busy processing data.
In theory, it is quite easy to measure the power of this thing. When the shock wave arrives, throw a handful of paper into the air and then calculate the power based on the movement of the paper.
The world's first bomb was measured in this way, and the error was slightly large. The calculated value was 1 tons of TNT, but the actual value was about 2 tons of TNT, with an error of about -50%, which is quite outrageous, but the order of magnitude is not a problem.
In subsequent experiments, the methods gradually became more complete.
"2 to 2.2 tons! It's basically consistent with the theoretical calculation. It's a success! A complete success!"
Our bomb is of the implosion type. This configuration has a high utilization rate and can be used with a variety of charges, but it is technically complex, difficult, and prone to failure.
As for why we have to go for the more technically difficult implosion configuration right from the start, it will become clear in just a few words.
This configuration is conducive to being the trigger of the uncontrollable sun. For them, even though there is light radiation, the mushroom rises, and the shock wave seems to be devastating, as long as the power of the explosion is too different from the theoretical calculation, it proves that it has not been successful.
The 90% success rate is not feasible here.
"Okay! Great! Report it right away. I'm sure they're waiting anxiously."
A call was made to the Observation Post, and the Observation Post called the capital.
In the capital, the leader of the Defense Work Committee had been staying by the phone. Having commanded thousands of troops and experienced great storms, it was rare for him to show a bit of anxiety.
Anyone would be anxious. Several years, dozens of top scientists, hundreds of units, tens of thousands of people, and even more huge financial investments have been put into this project. Now, it all depends on this one move.
Even if they fail, I believe the leaders will still insist on doing it, but if so, the pressure will be too great.
Everyone knows that the Citigroups really don't care about the lives of ordinary people. Their blackmail has always remained at the level of blackmail, just because they don't know our progress and the unique and fragile balance during the Cold War.
"Jingle Bell……"
Suddenly, the telephone rang shrilly.
The leader picked up the phone, and the voice coming from the other end made him burst out laughing.
Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.
"Success! 2 tons!"
At this moment, the leader held the phone and did not say anything for a long time.
At this moment, outside the explosion point deep in the desert, several soldiers drove a three-defense reconnaissance vehicle modified from an armored personnel carrier and rushed into the smoke without hesitation. This mission was something they had snatched with great difficulty.
Their task is to determine the areas and boundaries of radioactive contamination and to sample the smoke to confirm again whether the type of explosion is what we expected.
If Gao Zhendong were here, he would be very happy. It is his efforts and influence that have given our soldiers an extra layer of protection in addition to their protective clothing.
There is no need to wear protective clothing in the overall three-defense vehicle. Just carry out disinfection after leaving the contaminated area. But this is not the first time. For the safety of the soldiers, they are still required to wear protective clothing even if they are sitting in the three-defense reconnaissance vehicle.
This can be regarded as the first trial of a three-defense vehicle under radioactive conditions.
No one got out of the vehicle. This modified three-defense reconnaissance vehicle was equipped with an automatic sampling system and could perform certain analyses of the samples on board.
This is not too difficult. The simplest means of analysis is a Geiger counter.
With a series of beeping prompt sounds, the preliminary results have been completed. The soldiers in the car picked up the radio and reported to the distance. Their voices were relayed through a series of three-defense armored command vehicles in the middle and transmitted to dozens of kilometers away.
"Report, confirmed radioactive contamination, contamination boundary... The three-defense vehicle is well protected, no radioactive contamination was detected inside the vehicle..."
After hearing the soldiers' report, the scientific researchers in the bunker were completely relieved.
At this time in the capital, the leaders who were waiting for news finally received the preliminary report.
"Reporting to the commander, news has come from the Desert, the Defense Work Committee and other units that today's test has been successful, with an equivalent of 2 to 2.2 tons!"
One of the leaders was not moved, but repeatedly stressed: "Are you sure there is no problem with the type of explosion?"
"No problem. This is the first report. Light radiation, shock waves, and early radiation have all been detected. The conclusion of 2 tons of equivalent has been calculated based on the data. Just now, the first batch of soldiers who took samples for testing have confirmed the radioactive contamination area."
Miss Qiu’s four major weapons: light radiation, shock waves, early radiation, and radioactive contamination.
Now that all four are complete, there is no other possibility.
"Great! Great! This is our pride bomb! This is great news. We have finally broken the enemy's monopoly and blackmail. Now we can proudly say that developing countries also have this big bird!"
Another leader who looked very elegant instructed the reporter: "Inform the comrades in front to pay attention to protecting the health of the sampling personnel!"
"Don't worry, Commander. They are equipped with the latest three-defense vehicles and clothing. They can complete the sampling without leaving the vehicle. Now according to reports, the decontamination work is already underway."
"Okay, that's fine."
"Now we have to discuss how to make this public."
Unlike what Gao Zhendong knew in his previous life, there is no major meeting going on now, so the legendary way and the first batch of lucky people in his previous life are impossible to appear.
The most interesting thing that Gao Zhendong knew in his previous life was that in addition to the internal release, we also released it to the outside world. The first country to be notified was very subtle and could be said to be unexpected, but upon closer thought it was reasonable.
He was neither the Russians nor the Gallicans, with whom he had a decent relationship at the time, and even less so the John Bull Americans.
The object of this notification is the little devils...
