Under Captain Ivan's leadership, Yang Jing and his group walked onto the mound at the edge of the big pit. Because the big pit was blown out, the shape was very round and the mound at the edge of the pit was not short.

Originally, this big pit should have been dry, but as the groundwater continues to penetrate, the big pit becomes a lake like this. However, the water in this lake is dark and dark green, which looks a bit creepy.

"At the Potsdam Conference that year, US President Truman intimidated Stalin with an atomic bomb. Later, after the Potsdam Conference, the Americans dropped two mushroom bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan. The power of this weapon caused extremely anxiousness to the Soviet Union at that time, thus intensifying its own nuclear weapons development process. The Soviet People's Committee established the First Special Committee, which was specifically responsible for the development of nuclear weapons, and Beria served as the chairman of the First Special Committee. Stalin stipulated that the explosion and practicalization of mushroom bombs were completed within five years. Kurchatov, an academician of the Soviet Academy of Sciences, became the chief leader of the mushroom bomb program, code-named "First Lightning."

Standing at the edge of this big pit, Captain Ivan began to tell what he knew was rare to outsiders.

"But how difficult it is to develop mushroom bombs? The United States began to develop mushroom bombs at the end of 1938. After German scientists Hahn and Straman used neutrons to bombard uranium and then fission, it took Britain, France, the United States and German scientists who fled to the United States to complete the Manhattan plan. The United States used 500,000 people and spent 2.3 billion US dollars. At that time, this was an unattainable astronomical figure. As US President Truman said, "The cost of developing an atomic bomb is enough to buy the entire universe..."

Yang Jing nodded with a smile. Chris and the others also knew about this period of history. The world's first mushroom bullet was developed in their country, so they were also honored to listen to this period.

Captain Ivan turned around and looked at Yang Jing and the others and said, "But do you know how long it took for us Soviets to start developing mushroom bombs to successfully test the first mushroom bomb?"

Instead of waiting for Yang Jing and the others to answer, Ivan stretched out a slap and said, "Five years! We Soviets successfully tried the first mushroom bullet in just five years. And we spent far less than the Americans."

As soon as he said this, the smile on Chris and the others just now disappeared. Because this is the fact, and the Soviets not only took five years to develop mushroom bombs, but also the first to develop hydrogen bombs with a more terrifying power, which also has the largest number of nuclear warheads in the world. The red terror has been an indelible cloud in the Western world before the collapse of the Soviet Union.

Bruce couldn't help but retort: ​​"That's because your spies are too powerful, and there are some American traitors. If it weren't for those people, the Soviets wouldn't have developed their mushroom bullets so quickly."

Bruce's words did not make Captain Ivan, who was over 60, angry, but instead nodded with a smile, which was considered to be acknowledging Clark's identification.

"Bruce, everyone knows this kind of thing, but no matter what method we Soviets used to obtain the technology for the development of mushroom bullets, in our minds, those who contributed to this matter are heroes of us Soviets."

After pausing, Ivan continued: "Actually, when we Soviets were developing mushroom bombs, Soviet agents who defected to the United States mentioned this matter to the Americans and also said a lot of clues. Unfortunately, your US government did not care about this matter. At the end of 1945, Igor Guzengko, an interpreter of the Soviet Embassy in Canada, then revealed clues about several nuclear spies hidden in the West to the Canadian government, but Guzengko's confession did not receive any special attention at that time. It was not until Qian's nuclear test that the United Kingdom and the United States began to investigate again along Guzengko's confession that year."

"At that time, Klaus Fox, a British engineer born in Germany, was considered an important figure in providing nuclear secrets to the Soviet Union. Fox spent his childhood in Germany and later entered the UK as a refugee. After obtaining a Ph.D. in physics, Fox had the opportunity to enter the Los Alamos laboratory to contact the nuclear development project in the United States. During the interrogation, Fox believed that he was not selling state secrets, but out of a kind of morality in human society."

"And under the influence of the Fox case, a large number of left-wing intellectuals in the United States were under censorship, among which the Rosenberg couple were the most famous. On July 17, 1950, her husband Julius Rosenberg was arrested, and on August 11, his wife Ethel was arrested. During the interrogation, both of the couple denied that they had provided information to the Soviet Union. All sectors of society were very concerned about the case, and even Einstein and others called for a fair trial. But in the end the couple was sentenced to death and executed on June 19, 1952. After the Soviet archives were made public, the husband was indeed a Soviet spy, and the wife knew nothing about the matter."

"No matter what, these people are immortal heroes to the Soviet Union. Without them, the world pattern would not be like this. For us Soviets, they are heroes!"

Captain Ivan was born at the time when the Soviet Union was the most powerful, so even though the Soviet Union had disintegrated for almost thirty years, Captain Ivan was still honored as being a Soviet.

Yang Jing has no interest in such disputes. This is already history, and there is no point in disputes now.

However, Yang Jing really had a question to ask, so he spoke and interrupted the dispute between the two that looked like a child.

"Victor, I heard that the reason why you, the Soviet Union, developed mushroom bombs so quickly was that many spies made great contributions, but more importantly, the Soviet government obtained a mushroom bomb that was not detonated in Japan at that time? Is this true?"

"Yes, it's true. This matter was confidential at the time, but after the collapse of the Soviet Union, many secrets were made public, including the secrets in this regard."

After pausing, Captain Ivan continued: "In order to force Japan to surrender as soon as possible, after the Potsdam Conference, the Americans couldn't wait to use their only three mushroom bombs to Japan. On August 6, 1945, the US Air Force dropped the 'little boy' on Hiroshima. The mushroom bomb exploded in the air 600 meters above the ground, causing 60,000 houses within a radius of 14 kilometers to be completely destroyed."

"But this mushroom bullet is not the first mushroom bullet of the Americans. The first mushroom bullet made by the Americans is called 'Skinny', which is about the equivalent of an explosion of two thousand tons of ladder pressing. However, this mushroom bullet has been tested long ago. The 'Little Boy' is the second mushroom bullet that was detonated."

"Actually, there were three bombing targets for Japan at that time, including Hiroshima, Okura and Nagasaki. For this reason, the United States prepared three mushroom bombs. The US Air Force also prepared seven bombers to complete this important task. The first target at that time was Hiroshima, the second target was Kokura, and the third target was Nagasaki. However, when Okura was bombed on August 9, 1945, due to weather reasons, the air was covered with clouds. The bomber traveled back and forth three times, and finally gave up the target and turned around to fly to the second target Nagasaki. At that time, the sky was covered with clouds, and the bomber's fuel consumption was not allowed to fly back with mushroom bombs, which would lead to the destruction of the plane. However, when the plane arrived over Nagasaki, the originally dense clouds suddenly dispersed, and the bomber pilot decisively threw two mushroom bombs."

"But no one expected that only one of the two mushroom bombs dropped in Nagasaki exploded, that is, the mushroom bomb called the 'fat man'. As for the other unexploded mushroom bomb, it was strictly guarded by the Japanese. However, because Japan, which was defeated at that time, was no longer able to develop mushroom bombs. Looking at the devastated Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan's national hatred for the United States was leisurely arose. In order to allow the United States and the Soviet Union to start a protracted arms race, the Japanese handed over the mushroom bomb to the Soviet Union without hesitation. At that time, after we got the real mushroom bomb, and the technological information we had already obtained, the first mushroom bomb was quickly exploded within five years."

"This is the place where the mushroom bullet called 'Pumpkin' was tested. At that time, the equivalent of this mushroom bullet was about 22,000 tons of ladders."

Yang Jing nodded slightly and said, "Thank you, Victor. I have heard that there were two mushroom bombs when Nagasaki was bombed, but I have never been sure. Today I can finally confirm."

Captain Ivan's chat also got excited and asked Yang Jing with a smile: "Then you know that the first mushroom bullet developed by the Americans was called 'Skinny', and the first mushroom bullet developed by the Soviet Union was called 'Pumpkin', but do you know what the name of the first mushroom bullet developed by you in China?"

This question really made Yang Jing ask. Yang Jingguang knew that after China and the Soviet Union had a feud, China also fell into the same dilemma as Stalin, that was, it was facing nuclear blackmail from the Soviets.

At that time, under such circumstances, Grandpa Taizu ordered the Chinese to develop their own nuclear weapons. Then, with the whole country's efforts, the two bombs and one satellite were finally developed, and China also straightened its backbone.

But Yang Jing really didn't know the name of the first mushroom bullet developed by China.

Looking at Yang Jing's dazed expression, Captain Ivan smiled and said, "The first mushroom bullet you developed in China at that time is called 'Ms Qiu'! Haha, do you think this name is very literary?"

"Ms. Qiu?" Yang Jing was also stunned. Look at the first mushroom bullet developed by the Americans and the Soviets. One was called Skinny and the other was called Pumpkin. But why was the first mushroom bullet in China called Miss Qiu?

Yang Jing scratched his head awkwardly, but grabbed some flying dandruff...
