The Third Reich

Chapter 995 Who Did It (Plus 2)

This incident is definitely planned and premeditated, and it must have been arranged for a long time.

Up to now, the number of dead scientists has reached 56, almost all of them are famous figures in nuclear physics. It can be imagined with a toe that the US nuclear program has suffered heavy losses.

As for ordinary people, there are even more casualties. The reported figures now exceed 10,000 people. It can be said that the damage caused by this attack is even greater than that caused by Pearl Harbor. Pearl Harbor only lost some old ones. The warships of the First World War were nothing more than warships, but now, the top scientists in the United States and a large number of skilled workers have disappeared.

Roosevelt was extremely angry, but now, his anger could not be vented.

The Manhattan Project suddenly expanded in size, which led to disputes over interests. For example, the Army and the FBI were at odds over security work here.

And now, with such a big mess, it just happened that they could shirk their responsibilities. Hoover and Marshall, both of them had been quarreling with each other, scolding each other's mother many times.

What's the use of this? Now, what to do?

"First of all, we don't have a clear result of the investigation. What happened in the Oak Ridge massacre?" Secretary of State Hull's mind was still calm, and he thought of a more terrifying situation.

Whether it is Germany or an island country, if they directly attack Oak Ridge, they must be throwing bombs from the air. Thinking about this is enough to make people collapse.

American bombers went to the island countries to drop bombs, almost all of them died. In this way, the United States rejoiced, because they could directly retaliate against the island countries!

And the pride in the hearts of Americans also comes from their new continent, which is isolated from the old continent. In this way, whether it is an island country or Germany, it is difficult to directly attack the United States.

Although last year, they slandered that Germany used bombers to bomb New York, it was just a whimsical, the range of the Junker-290 bomber was not so far.

It's impossible for Germany, how can an island country have such a technology?

If it wasn't for bombers, what was the situation that would allow the nuclear base to be razed to the ground?

It's really scary!

If it is said that an accident occurred inside the nuclear base, causing a chain reaction of explosions, this is acceptable, but everyone knows that this is impossible.

Such an explosion could only be a nuclear explosion. How could a nuclear explosion be so easy to produce!

In later generations, terrorists can make dirty bombs and buy radioactive raw materials, but they can never make atomic bombs, because for a chain reaction to occur, the nuclear raw materials need to have a very high purity, even if it is a nuclear power plant, nuclear The enrichment level of raw materials is only 50%, and in nuclear weapons, it must be more than 99%.

The best way, of course, is to ask the person concerned to come and ask, but what is even more frightening is that there is no survivors at the scene.

Hull's words made Roosevelt calm down. Even if Roosevelt had no scientific knowledge, he knew that this was not an accident. What's more, so many scientists who were not on the scene, including his scientific adviser Oppenheimer, were also simultaneously attacked. Assassination, needless to say? Absolutely a conspiracy!

Hull's words also made Marshall think of something: "This tragic explosion at the scene, all the buildings were destroyed, this attack mode is almost the same as the situation in Exeter, England. what!"

When Marshall said this, everyone around him also reacted, yes, that's right!

At that time, the British still wanted to resist the German invasion. Among them, Exeter was the most determined. They wanted to use brutal street fighting to cause heavy casualties to the Germans, and finally had to evacuate. The result? The Germans destroyed the entire city, including its civilians!

The scene at that time was still fresh in everyone's memory. When they saw the photo, they were amazed at the brutality of the Germans, and they were also deeply impressed by this weapon.

This situation is very similar!

"Could it be that the German Junkers-290 can fly to our United States?" Roosevelt murmured: "How is this possible!"

Junkers-290, they don't know, but this kind of plane is born out of the Atlantic passenger plane. The United States has already thoroughly studied this kind of passenger plane. The range of this kind of plane is less than 8,000 kilometers, that is, it goes back and forth to Europe. And America, only one-way, round-trip is absolutely impossible.

"It is said that the Germans are researching aerial refueling technology. If there is aerial refueling, can they be able to go back and forth?" said the Secretary of the Navy.

"Just a simple calculation, it's impossible," Roosevelt interrupted unceremoniously.

Although Roosevelt didn't understand the military, Roosevelt was at least an extremely smart person, and he would still be able to do simple calculations.

If this aircraft needs to refuel the Junker-290, how much fuel does it need to carry?

It adds its own fuel to the Junker-290. If it is less, it is not enough. If there is too much, how can it fly back by itself? Will there be a funny scene of another tanker trying to refuel this tanker?

Moreover, this kind of aerial refueling is also very dangerous. What if the weather conditions cannot be met and it is impossible to refuel in the air?

This thing is definitely tasteless. If it is said that this aerial tanker refuels several fighter jets, it is almost the same. Refueling bombers is absolutely tasteless.

Well, if this is impossible, there is only another possibility left. The Germans already have terrifying intercontinental bombers that can start from Europe, fly directly to the United States to bomb, and return to Germany!

The moment this idea popped into Roosevelt's mind, his expression changed. He looked at Hull, and Hull nodded. It seemed that he also thought of this terrible situation.

"Intensify the development of our night fighters! Arrange a large number of air defense radars on our coastline. This matter must be the top priority and have the highest priority!" Roosevelt shouted: "All our east coast, all armed Get up, this kind of thing can't happen again!"

The night air raid this time was just an accident. The same thing must never happen again!

Just as Roosevelt had just finished yelling, his most trusted intelligence officer came over with the information he had just obtained: "The island nation announced in a high-profile manner that their G5N deep mountain bomber has entered service with the army and has just completed a combat mission."
