BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1711: nuclear explosion
Marshal Raeder nodded. If this is the case, then the German army is very well prepared. Army Group D has three armies. In addition, there are 12 group armies in the country on standby. Although 10 of them are newly formed armies, it can be seen from the performance of the 25th and 26th armies on the North American continent that they also have very strong combat effectiveness.
Plus Germany and mainland servants can be mobilized. Then, once the German army\'s war on the North American continent does not go well, more reinforcements can be dispatched to land on the North American continent in time. The war potential of the US military has basically been tapped. Once they suffer a loss, it will not be so easy to make up for it.
"Marshal Manstein, this battle is also very important to the empire. Therefore, we need to send a competent person to North America. Who do you think is suitable?" Qin Tian asked.
Marshal Manstein couldn\'t help frowning. Marshal Bromberg, commander of Army Group A, Marshal Guderian, commander of Army Group B, and Marshal Rommel, commander of Army Group C, are all representatives of the Imperial Army. , are all marshal-level people. Plus there\'s the navy and air force to coordinate. Ordinary people are simply not qualified to subdue them.
"Your Majesty, let me go to North America myself!" Marshal Manstein said.
Marshal Manstein, as the Minister of the Imperial Army and the Chief of the General Staff, is unparalleled in terms of official position, military rank, and seniority. It is undoubtedly the most appropriate for him to personally come forward to command the German Army, Navy and Air Force in North America.
Qin Tian nodded, he also thought so. Now, there is indeed no more suitable candidate than Marshal Manstein.
"Okay, Marshal Manstein, you will be the commander of the North American theater. I hope you will be able to win this time and defeat the greatest enemy of the United States for the empire." Qin Tian said.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Marshal Manstein replied.
"Everyone, although the empire is now at war with the United States and island countries at the same time. However, the United States is the greatest enemy of the empire. As long as we can defeat the United States in one fell swoop on the North American battlefield, then we will be able to win this war. I hope , we can defeat the United States in the shortest time and at the lowest cost. This time, the battle against the United States requires the cooperation of the three armies of the empire." Qin Tian said.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Everyone replied.
"Everyone, get ready, go to the airport tomorrow, and go to a place with me. There is something that I need to let you take a look at. It can be regarded as a complete peace of mind for you." Qin Tian said.
The three marshals were a little surprised, but they still didn\'t say anything. They knew that Qin Tian wanted to keep it secret for the time being.
On the second day, Marshal Manstein, Marshal Raeder, Marshal Albert Kesselring, as well as a group of senior generals of the Imperial Army, Navy and Air Force in the country, as well as senior officials of the Imperial Cabinet, a group of dozens of people took five planes The transport plane, protected by a squadron of Luftwaffe TA-152 fighters, took off from Berlin.
The fleet headed south, flew over the European continent, crossed the Mediterranean Sea, and landed at a field airport in central Libya.
When everyone passed through the porthole and saw the yellow sand all over the sky, they couldn\'t help being stunned.
"Where is this place? Is it the Sahara Desert in Africa? What is His Majesty the Emperor bringing us here for?" Many people have a doubt in their hearts.
After everyone got off the plane, they changed to cars. After traveling tens of kilometers in the desert, they arrived at a camp.
"Your Majesty, where is this?" Marshal Manstein asked the question in everyone\'s mind.
Qin Tian smiled, and then said to everyone: "This is a secret scientific research institution of the empire. I brought you here today because I want to see their achievements."
Marshal Manstein and a few others immediately knew what it was. In the entire empire, there are only a few people who know that Germany is conducting research in this area.
"Doctor, is everything ready?" Qin Tian asked.
"Your Majesty, you are ready." Dr. Oppenheimer, who is in charge of this scientific research project, said.
"Then, let\'s start!" Qin Tian said. His time is precious, and it is impossible to stay in this desert for a long time.
"Yes, Your Majesty. Please follow me." Dr. Oppenheimer led the way.
A group of people came to an underground fortification made of reinforced concrete. Through special windows, you can see the outside. The entire underground fortification, the outer layer is reinforced concrete, and the inner layer is also isolated with lead plates.
The staff distributed special anti-radiation glasses to everyone.
"Let\'s get started!" Dr. Oppenheimer issued an order.
At this moment, more than ten kilometers away from the camp, there is a high platform more than ten meters away. On the high platform, there is a cylindrical metal container.
Suddenly, the metal container burst into dazzling light, as if a sun had erupted here.
Accompanied by a violent explosion, a black cloud like a mushroom shot straight into the sky.
The shock wave spread around, sending sand and rocks flying.
The abandoned locomotives, tanks, armored vehicles and trucks placed around the high platform were all overturned by the shock wave.
In addition, some livestock such as pigs, cattle and sheep were also burned to coke in the blink of an eye.
Everyone in the underground fortification was shocked by this scene. Even though they were far apart, they could still feel the destructive power of it.
"Oh my God! What exactly have we researched?" Even Dr. Oppen Haimer, the project leader, was also shocked.
"This is a weapon capable of destroying a city." Marshal Manstein looked serious.
"This is also a sharp weapon to make the empire invincible." Qin Tian said with a smile.
