The Third Reich

Chapter 300 Four Years to Build the Atomic Bomb (Seeking Monthly Ticket)

What Hitler wanted to hear most was that the nuclear bomb would be built tomorrow. If it really doesn't work, then next year will do. Now, Heisenberg's result is hundreds of years!

What a joke, Hitler can't live for a hundred years, so what's the use of investing now?

"Dr. Heisenberg, there must be some problem, right? Say it, our empire will try our best to solve it," Cyric said.

Of course, Cyric was covering for Heisenberg. Heisenberg glanced at him gratefully and continued: "Our nuclear reactor is just a small experimental reactor, and the burning speed is too slow."

"Then continue to build large nuclear reactors." Cyric continued: "Don't worry, the Empire absolutely supports this plan, and funding is not a problem."

"General Cyric, we can build a larger nuclear reactor, which can generate enough electricity for living and scientific research, but our problem now is that we can't buy enough uranium ore, if we are in the international market If you buy uranium ore in large quantities, it will arouse the vigilance of other scientists."

No uranium ore has been found in Germany yet. This ore is imported from the outside world. The best uranium ore in the world is the uranium ore in Congo! The largest uranium mine in Europe is located in the Czech Republic.

Now, after hearing Heisenberg's words, Cyric shook his head: "Dr. Heisenberg, if it's a matter of uranium ore, then we can start construction right now to build a larger nuclear reactor. We can get it from the Czech Republic at any time. Get enough uranium ore, not as good as Congolese, but enough."

Anytime from the Czech Republic? Heisenberg immediately reacted: "We have occupied the Czech Republic?"

The technicians present were excited for a while, while Hitler nodded in satisfaction.

The scientists who came here in the latest issue also came half a year ago. They only know that the relationship with the Czech Republic is tense, and they don't know that the Czech Republic has been annexed. The secrecy work here is really good.

Unlike the oil base, no radios are allowed here, and it is completely isolated from the world.

"Okay, then we need to continue to allocate 500 million marks to build larger nuclear reactors," Heisenberg said.

The construction of nuclear reactors is quite resource-intensive, especially in Libya, where all materials need to be transported from Germany, which is even more expensive.

Hearing 500 million marks, Hitler frowned at first, and then agreed again. After all, if this kind of bomb could be built, it would definitely be a big killer!

"With this new reactor, will we be able to build an atomic bomb within a few years?" Hitler continued to ask.

Hitler valued scientists very much. They were the precious wealth of the empire. Hitler never put scientists in prison to do research like Stalin did.

However, after spending countless resources of the Empire, Hitler would definitely not be satisfied if there were no results that satisfied Hitler.

So Heisenberg remained silent again.

He needed Cyric to come out of the siege. In fact, while building a nuclear reactor and continuously burning the raw materials for nuclear weapons, they were also conducting theoretical research on nuclear weapons, but the results were shocking.

Looking at Heisenberg's silence, Cyric suddenly remembered the interesting scientific talk of later generations. In the development of the atomic bomb, Heisenberg took a lot of detours, and now, let him solve the final key!

"Great Führer, everyone present, I am reminded of a famous problem called the walking of drunkards," Cyric said: "A drunken man, after randomly advancing and turning back 80 times in the square, will he stop at about how much within the radius?"

Cyric's words made Heisenberg instantly sparkle with hope in his eyes. General Cyric is simply a god. What he is talking about now is a big problem he is facing!

If you want to produce a chain reaction, you need to let the neutron hit the nucleus. This is a very small probability, and the interior of the atom is empty. Then there is only one way to increase the quality of the reactants, so that the reaction of a uranium nucleus can be guaranteed to continue to occur at least 80 times!

In this case, you need a lot of volume!

How big is it? Heisenberg counted it several times, and the conclusion is that it is shattering, 54 cm, which is equivalent to 13 tons of uranium 235, or similar plutonium 239, even if it is to create a huge nuclear reactor, want to make so many reactions It is also very difficult to obtain things, at least, it will not be possible within ten years.

Hitler was very patient after being able to ask for a few years.

Now, does Cyric still have a solution?

"If no one interferes, the drunkard's activity radius will be very large, but if someone interferes, the order of magnitude may be greatly reduced."

After speaking, Cyric's eyes looked at Heisenberg: "Dr. Heisenberg, have you ever thought that a neutron reflection layer can be placed on the outside of the nuclear material, so that all the neutrons generated by the reaction can be What about constantly reflecting back and continuing to participate in the fission reaction?"

The critical mass of a nuclear bomb is a very critical data. Heisenberg calculated that it was an astonishing figure of 13 tons. Even when Germany was defeated and the United States successfully dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima, Heisenberg did not believe it.

"I don't believe this atomic bomb news at all, and of course I could be wrong. I thought they (the allies) might have 10 tons of enriched uranium, but I didn't think they had 10 tons of pure uranium 235!"

Later, Heisenberg learned from the newspaper that the actual weight of the bomb was 200 kilograms, and the core explosive was only a few kilograms. He looked irritable, wondering where his estimates were wrong.

Now that Cyric has woken him up, he doesn't need that many at all. He uses all the neutrons and adds a reflection layer!

Just like a cool breeze in a hot afternoon, Heisenberg suddenly realized that he had found the right solution!

"Führer, if we build a large reactor now, we can generate enough nuclear materials within two years!" Heisenberg said: "And then within two years, we can produce nuclear weapons!"

Within four years, this weapon will be completely built! Heisenberg is now full of confidence.

It is now 38 years, and four years later, it will be 42 years. If the atomic bomb can be fiddled with in 1942, the entire history of World War II will definitely be rewritten!

Surrender or not? Grow mushrooms for you if you don't surrender!

"Okay, then four years." Hitler said: "I hope we won't be disappointed, this is the secret weapon of the Empire! Now, let's talk about how the missile is doing."
