On the afternoon of February 17th, Eastern Time, in a valley in Alaska, soldiers of the 91st Security Forces of the United States were busy. ¡Ê¨J
Two soldiers wearing radiation protection suits are placing a nuclear bomb, which is only the size of an ordinary artillery shell, on the base of an underground pit. There are two soldiers in the pit checking various instruments and cameras arranged in the pit.
"Report to the captain, the review is completed and all equipment is normal." A soldier reported to the major who was looking at them after planting the nuclear bomb.
"Very good, evacuate the experimental area and seal the entrance."
The four soldiers withdrew from the pit one after another. The major poked his head outside the door and inspected the pit for another week. Then he pressed a red button outside the door, and a steel door two meters behind "rumbling" The ground slipped out of the stone wall on one side. Two minutes later, the entrance to the cave was completely sealed by the iron gate.
The four soldiers turned a U-shaped road and opened an iron gate to seal the alleyway. This was done four times in a row before the four people began to take off their bulky radiation protection suits.
A soldier took off his clothes and said:
"Captain, I heard them discussing that the Carl Vinson surrendered to the Arrow Wolf mercenaries yesterday. And this morning, the Reagan also followed in their footsteps. Will our sudden nuclear explosion test be related to this incident? Things are related.¡±
"Lieutenant, if you know something you should know, don't ask." The major had already taken off his helmet. He was a black man in his forties, with a shaved head close to his scalp.
"Why do I feel weird? Are we going to use nuclear bombs? I still remember that Donilon was killed by Arrow Wolf mercenaries because of his remarks about using nuclear bombs. There won't be anyone who will use nuclear bombs regardless of life and death, right? "
The lieutenant is a white man in his thirties. He ignored the black major's warning and continued to talk to himself.
"Forget it, stop talking about it, we don't understand these military and national affairs, so don't let the Military Justice Department cause trouble for us."
Another soldier said, he was also a lieutenant.
In this base. Except for the large soldiers who perform security tasks on the periphery, the soldiers who can enter the core area are all lieutenants or above. Some trivial tasks are also done by them.
"The news that the two aircraft carrier battle groups surrendered to the Arrowwolf mercenaries should be true. I also heard about it from Colonel Jones. Arrowwolf's submarines are very powerful, and the Navy's equipment cannot detect them at all. And we can't intercept their submarine-launched missiles. We can't let soldiers lose their lives in vain. The families of these soldiers will thank the Pentagon for what I did."
"The second lieutenant who finally took off his radiation protection suit said. The three white lieutenants did not take the black major seriously at all, and said without any scruple that they believed this happened often. After the black major warned them once, they stopped talking.
"This is going to be a big deal! Didn't you see that the news media was silent? It started to riot. When the public knew that we had two aircraft carrier battle groups surrendering without a fight. We don't know how to cause chaos." The lieutenant continued. said.
At this time, the black colonel had already put away his radiation protection suit and took the lead to walk out of the alleyway.
"If this wasn't in the military camp, I would have broken his legs." The lieutenant looked at the black major who walked five or six steps away, spat on the ground, and said in a low voice. The other two didn't answer his question.
There is a secret nuclear test site here. This test tunnel is located 800 meters underground at sea level. If you add in the rolling mountains, the thickness of the rock and soil above this test site exceeds 1,500 meters. There are two more similar lanes in this mountainous area. They were all excavated before the United Nations Nuclear Test Ban Treaty and have been abandoned for more than a dozen years.
In an old two-story reinforced concrete building ten kilometers away from the nuclear explosion site, Major General Auston, commander of the U.S. Strategic Forces Alaska Base, was having a video call with the Department of Defense.
"Mr. Leon, the preparations here are basically completed. Can the experiment be started at any time? We are waiting for instructions from the Pentagon."
Minister Leon on the big screen looked at the Touchto360 smart watch on his hand.
"General Alston, the nuclear explosion will take place in five minutes. This nuclear explosion is very important. You must ensure that there is no accident, because it is related to the future and destiny of America."
"Don't worry, Mr. Minister. Both nuclear explosion sites have been carefully inspected by us to ensure that there will be no accidents."
Major General Alston issued a military order to Leon.
Leon just smiled and did not explain to Auston. The accident he had in mind and the accident Auston recognized were two different things.
This nuclear explosion experiment may definitely not be completed. Leon would not think that the commander of China's air and space forces was just talking nonsense and letting go of nothing.arrow. He already believes that China has the ability to suppress nuclear explosions. But he was unwilling to do it. He hoped that the nuclear experiment would explode as scheduled.
The accident he was talking about was not to let Diagonal Tower make wrong judgments due to other technical reasons.
The nuclear bombs used in this nuclear experiment were two small nuclear bombs weighing 50 kilograms, with a yield of 11,000 tons of TNT. This is also the smallest Chinese tactical nuclear bomb that the United States can produce. Compared with the small nuclear bombs of the Arrow Wolf mercenaries in the intelligence video, the technology of the United States is still far behind.
After the countdown ended, Major General Auston personally pressed the detonation button. More than 100 pairs of eyes were fixed on the two nuclear bombs on the big screen.
Time seemed to have stopped. The command hall of Nuo University was so quiet that one could even hear the sound of one's own heartbeat. One second passed, and the ground did not shake. Two seconds passed, and the two nuclear bombs displayed on the big screen were fine. Standing on a pedestal in a pit.
Beads of sweat flowed down Major General Alston's forehead in rows.
"Check, check immediately, what is going on?" Auston seemed crazy, he roared hysterically at his men.
"Major General Alston, please report the situation there."
Minister Leon¡¯s face on the other big screen did not show surprise, but seemed to be relieved. He clearly saw the situation in the command hall of the experimental base, but he still had to listen to Alston's personal report.
In the Pentagon conference room, all the members of the U.S. National Security Council hidden behind the screen looked ashen.
"Mr. Minister, both experimental nuclear bombs had accidents. They did not detonate. According to the information fed back by the experimental food, the detonation process has been completed inside the nuclear bombs. But they did not fission."
Auston said frustratedly. This unexpected occurrence was a huge blow to him, and he had a premonition that his career had come to an end (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
