Chapter 996 One More Thing

"After the continuous efforts of our island nation's scientific and technical personnel, we finally have a strategic bomber that can fly to the United States for bombing!" The voice on the radio excited all the island nation.

In the sneak attack on Pearl Harbor, the navy of the island nation killed the Pacific Fleet of the U.S. Navy in one fell swoop. At the same time, the navy of the island nation started a rapid offensive in Southeast Asia, and no longer has to worry about the interference of the United States.

However, the Americans are not willing to fail. They dare to use bombers to attack the capital of the island country!

Of course, the island country would not admit to being attacked by the United States. The island country only briefly explained that an incoming enemy plane was expelled and several were shot down.

After that, the island nation announced the news, of course, to cheer people up.

"Our G5N deep mountain bomber, with a range of tens of thousands of kilometers, can bomb the mainland of the United States at any time. We will follow the footsteps of victory and continue to move forward!"

"Below, we broadcast the speech of the recently appointed Prime Minister Tojo Chiaki."

 …

The news is not long, it is enough to explain something.

Is it an island country? The island nation got that kind of bomb from Germany and flew over to do a retaliatory bombing on the continental United States? It seems impossible. In terms of time, when their bombers are bombing, their bombers should have already taken off!

what on earth is it?

"The specific truth, we must immediately investigate." Roosevelt said: "Until the investigation is clear, this incident should not be disclosed to the outside world."

This bombing will hit the United States even more! This kind of loss is even irreparable for the United States. Where can I find the brains of those scientists?

Do not want the outside world to do any disclosure! If the people knew, the morale that had just been built up from the bombing of Tokyo would be hit again.

Blocked the news first and attributed Oak Ridge to an accident.

"What if, really, the Germans did it?" Hull said to himself just as Roosevelt was about to call off the meeting.

Although the final investigation has not yet come out, in fact, many people know in their hearts that only Germany has such a terrifying ability, and the island country is not worthy!

The United States is clamoring for a decisive battle with Germany every day to restore European domination, but now, the United States is being crushed by the Germans in every aspect.

In this case, the Germans will not make any statement, but it is a more terrible suggestion.

"We want to have bombers like this!" Roosevelt said: "As long as we build a base in Greenland for our B-29s to take off and land, we can bomb Germany at any time. If the Germans really did it, then Prepare to bear the wrath of our vengeance!"

Roosevelt remained confident.

No one spoke, everyone was ready to leave, and as they walked away one by one, Roosevelt took the cigarette holder and came to the window.

If the Germans really did it, then the Germans are challenging the bottom line of the United States. The Germans can assassinate on the territory of the United States, so let the Germans taste the taste of being assassinated!

Blood for blood, tooth for tooth!

After taking a few sips, Roosevelt's mind suddenly became clear, wait, there is one more thing!

The Manhattan Project has indeed suffered a huge blow, but the United States will not compromise, which further illustrates the truth that the enemy is afraid of the successful development of this kind of nuclear weapon of its own!

If you want to develop nuclear weapons, you must have raw materials!

The United States has obtained the ore in the Sengel cargo terminal. Those ore were transported to Oak Ridge and turned into ashes. In addition to these, the United States also has some uranium ore that has been mined in Belgian Congo. These ore are packed in A cargo ship in the United States is being shipped to the United States!

If it was really done by the Germans, then this cargo ship would definitely be threatened in the Atlantic Ocean!

Roosevelt was in a hurry: "Call the Secretary of the Navy immediately and come over with Nichols!"

South Atlantic, the waves are a bit big.

The US bulk carrier Kobe Bryant is sailing in the South Atlantic Ocean.

The bulk carrier was developed from a coal carrier. Compared with other ships, its hull is very large, and the front is covered with a cargo hold. The bulk cargo can be delivered to the cargo hold directly through the conveyor belt on the dock. come here.

The bridge is at the back, and the volume is not large. At this time, on the bridge, Captain Danny is looking into the distance.

"Last night, when I saw the ores we transported, it would glow." Danny heard the words of the first mate beside him.

On the whole ship, only Danny knew the importance of the mission. He also knew that the two destroyers of the US Navy were sailing with him in the waters less than 30 nautical miles away from him. come over.

And the destroyer didn't sail with him directly, that's for confidentiality. After all, if two destroyers protect a cargo ship, everyone knows what treasures are in the cargo ship.

The destroyer's weapons and equipment are also not strong. If it encounters a terrible opponent, the destroyer may not be able to protect itself. Unless the United States uses the entire fleet to protect the cargo ship, the cost is too high.

The cargo in the cabin glows because it contains uranium ore, which Danny knows very well.

Uranium is radioactive, and uranium ore is the same. However, this thing does not do much harm to the body. If you want to find a comparison, it is similar to the radiation of a luminous watch.

Only after the uranium in the uranium ore is purified, the radioactivity will increase sharply to the extent that it is harmful to the human body.

"We're only in charge of shipping, and we'll ship whatever the employer wants us to ship," Danny said. "That's our principle."

As he spoke, he was still looking at the sea with his binoculars. Suddenly, a strange scene on the sea caught his attention. A seagull seemed to be floating on the sea. Under its feet, something was stepping on it. ?

Danny twisted the focusing knob of the telescope, and now he finally saw clearly. Below that, there was a cylindrical thing, which was swimming forward at this time, and there was a wave in front of it.

In an instant, Danny thought of something. As a person who had recently retired from the Navy, he knew it. It was the periscope of a submarine!

"SOS, SOS, unidentified submarine found, Kobe calls for help!" Danny tuned the radio to that particular frequency and called out loudly.

He only hopes that the American destroyer near him can catch up quickly and expel this unknown submarine quickly!

At this moment, he saw the bubbles on the sea, and the bubbles were spreading rapidly, coming towards his cargo ship at an incredible speed!
