Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

Vol 2 Chapter 1525: brave guy

Although it sounds vague, but what is it saying; Little Ustinov is also a military professional. He is also the Minister of Weapons and Equipment of the Soviet Union, so he is no stranger to nuclear weapons. Of course, we know that nuclear radiation exceeding the standard is harmful to the environment and human body.

Little Ustinov said immediately: "What supplies are needed at the moment, and what work needs to be prepared; sort them out immediately!"

As the commander-in-chief, even if you don't understand it yourself, listen to expert advice. After all, no one can ignore the harm of nuclear radiation.

Hearing this, the Soviet nuclear energy experts finally felt relieved; they were really worried that Moscow would send one or two knives. I don't know anything, so I'll give a blind command when the time comes. The person in front of him looks high and powerful, but he knows what he has to do and what he can do; this alone is much stronger than the average person.

The Soviet nuclear energy expert said decisively: "At present, we need a lot of high-quality protective clothing, and we must prepare it immediately. At the same time, we need to mobilize personnel to build a tunnel from under the nuclear power plant. In this situation, we can only use manual excavation. Once the machine is used, there will be a slight If you are not careful, it will cause landslides, which will make the disaster worse; and it will also pollute the nearby groundwater resources."

"Fortunately, it has been remedied by firefighters, pilots, and protective troops; the reactor loophole has been basically filled. But for safety, a giant concrete sarcophagus must be built. Only by completely sealing the No. 4 reactor can the next step be carried out."

"At the same time, evacuate the surrounding people and inform the surrounding countries; take necessary defensive measures. This matter cannot be concealed, otherwise we will be the sinners of the entire human race."

While carrying out other work, it is also necessary to deal with the nuclear radiation waste that is seriously exceeding the standard. The required protective clothing is to be distributed to the staff.

After the accident, the first batch of firefighters arrived at the scene of the accident within 6 minutes after receiving the fire alarm call. They were wearing simple protective equipment from the start, and within half an hour of arriving at the scene, they realized that the fire was not a simple fire. Some of the firefighters began to experience headaches, nausea, and vomiting -- early symptoms of the body's exposure to intense radiation.

After realizing the existence of radiation, some firefighters asked people to close the doors and windows of their families in Pripyat near the nuclear power plant, and then returned to the fire scene to continue to put out the fire. One group of firefighters was replaced, another was put on top...

The fire was successfully controlled and did not spread to the adjacent No. 3 reactor; after the open fire was extinguished, the superior issued an evacuation order. Some of the rescuers left the scene, while some of the wounded ran back to the power station to continue the rescue after being sent to the hospital.

Most of the 28 rescue workers who were initially injured were firefighters; they all died in the following month due to absorbing a huge amount of radiation far beyond the human body.

Although the fire was extinguished, the nuclear fuel in the No. 4 reactor was about 180 to 190 tons, and the explosion had thrown 8 tons directly into the air, and then the high air flow spread it all over Europe and even the world. To control the spread of pollutants, the Soviet Air Force took over the responsibility of firefighters. They had to manually drop 80-kilogram sandbags from the air along with lead blocks, 6,000 tons of borax and concrete to seal the exposed core.

The Soviet pilots knew before they set off that the mission would face invisible, lethal radiation that was more dangerous than any battlefield they had been to before. In order to put it accurately, Major General Antoshkin of the Soviet Air Force personally flew the plane to the edge of the fire field with high temperature and radiation limit.

Although they are at an altitude of 200 meters, the radiation there is at least 1,000 roentgens, and exposure for half an hour here is enough to kill. The pilots absorbed 5 or 6 roentgens for each trip. Some pilots fly as many as 33 times a day. After a few missions, the pilots began to vomit, and if they stayed any longer, the radiation would erode muscles and burn bones. This group of Soviet soldiers took turns taking turns, dispatching 110 aircraft on the first day and 300 aircraft on the second day... In the entire rescue; so far, a full 3,000 flights have been flown.

The same is true for the chemical defense forces. During the operation to determine the level of nuclear radiation, General Pikalov, commander of the Soviet chemical defense forces, covered all areas suspected of serious nuclear radiation pollution. He said at the time: "I'm old, maybe I only have a few years to live, and the hope of life is left to young commanders! With such a heavy price, the opening of the reactor was completely sealed.

It's just that the outside world doesn't know it yet, and even Little Ustinov doesn't know much about it. After all, the special system of the Soviet Union makes it difficult for the outside world to get their information.

Now that you know what needs to be done, things are easy to do. And the Soviet Union can't continue to hide it, after all, the Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency, Blix, is also present at the moment. If they continue to hide it, then they really become the sinners of the entire human race.

Little Ustinov: "Assemble the protective clothing immediately, you need the highest level."

Hearing this, the people below are a little embarrassed. After all, in the Soviet Union, there are really not many reserves of the highest level of protective clothing. This thing is basically useless at ordinary times. In their hearts, it is estimated that there is no one who has eaten the heart of a bear and a leopard, and dared to throw an atomic bomb on the head of the great Soviet Union. And protective clothing has a service life, the higher the level, the more precious it is.

At present, the highest level of protective clothing on the market has a storage life of no more than 5 years. The high cost, coupled with the short lifespan, is really unacceptable to big countries. But the subordinates can only bite the bullet. After all, Chernobyl is in a hurry now, but it can't be delayed a minute.

Immediately, he ordered other departments to cooperate fully; all work must be completed within the stipulated time.

The Minister of Coal Industry, who received the order, was very reluctant, but at the moment he had to work as a miner.

Immediately, 400 miners were recruited, a tunnel was dug out of the ground, and a liquid nitrogen heat exchanger was installed in it to prevent the reactor fuel from seeping into the ground.

The surface is magma, and the underground tunnel has a high temperature of more than fifty degrees. They had no access to any cooling equipment, and almost all miners undressed and worked shirtless. This is equivalent to exposing themselves to nuclear radiation completely, but they don't care, because that's how the fathers dig.

At first, the coal industry minister did not tell them what kind of work was to be done.

The captain of the miners immediately said: It is best to tell the truth when dealing with the miners, because "those people work in the dark, they can see through everything".

Ten thousand miners responded to the call of the Soviet government to dig underground cooling channels. They endured a lack of oxygen, high temperatures and far higher than normal levels of radiation, and eventually dug a 150-meter tunnel to the bottom of the No. 4 reactor. More than a quarter of these miners did not live past the age of 40.

Hero miner Vladimir Nikolaevich-Naumov recalled: "We were given a grim and important task, and in general very few people knew about it. I'll start from here, to cut among the miners. The people of Ernobyl are all outstanding excavation workers and volunteers who have been strictly selected by the Party Committee!"

They know the danger, but they are willing to do it, more magnanimous than anyone else. The Soviets were both individualistic combatants and collectivist sacrifices.

It can be said that this is a very remarkable group of people, which is extremely admirable.

Little Ustinov immediately reported the relevant situation to Moscow; when he learned that the nuclear power plant accident was the highest level of level 7; the Soviet executives could not sit still. Immediately mobilized the national materials, and strive to minimize the accident hazards.

At the same time, the local people were ordered to evacuate, and other countries in Europe were informed; and the whole world was informed. European countries are even in panic, after all, no one can guarantee that nuclear radiation will float over their own countries.

Therefore, in addition to humanitarianism, UU reading www.uukanshu.com did not dare to provide too many protective materials to the Soviets. People are selfish, and they are also worried that if nuclear radiation occurs in their own country, protective clothing will definitely not be enough.

This time is not the time to be loyal and be a hero; when disaster strikes, life-saving may be more important than anything else.

This put a lot of pressure on the Soviet Ministry of Foreign Affairs. On the one hand, Chernobyl kept urging the need for various materials; on the other hand, European countries refused to take out strategic reserves for self-protection.

Know that for every day of delay, hundreds of thousands of people die. But even with the most rudimentary protective measures, the Soviets did not turn back; this spirit is very rare.

At the same time, Little Ustinov was very anxious. After all, the rescuers who were able to rush to the front were all the bravest soldiers in the Soviet Union, and their lives were precious!

I need to consult a lot of historical materials, otherwise I really don't know how to write, I'm very sorry!
