"What do you want to say?" Lin Rui looked at Palmina and said.

"Before this, I want to ask if you know Xindidao?" Palmina looked at Lin Rui.

Lin Rui was a little dazed, "I don't know where it is."

Yelena said, but her face changed slightly, "That's a nuclear test base!"

Palmina nodded and said, "Yes. Russia’s Novaya Zemlya Island is located in the Arctic Circle. It is covered with snow all year round, the climate is cold and sparsely populated. Russia’s closest city to the island, such as Murmansk and Arkhangelsk, is in one of them. Thousands of kilometers away.

In July 1954, the Soviet Union decided to build a nuclear test site on the island. From 1959 to the end of 1962, the Soviet Union carried out a total of 91 nuclear explosions on Novaya Zemlya. Among them, 3 were water explosions, 1 was ground explosions, 2 were water explosions, and the rest were air explosions.

The most famous one was in 1961, when the Soviet Union conducted the largest hydrogen bomb test on Novaya Zemlya. In the early morning of the same day, Liasnikov, a pilot of the "Bagrovskyi" air force brigade specializing in dropping atomic bombs by the Soviet Union, took off from Olenia Naval Airport near Murmansk. Yitu-95 strategic bomber is loaded with a 26-ton "Big Ivan" hydrogen bomb.

It is the largest nuclear bomb ever detonated in the world, and its explosive power is about 58 million tons of TNT. At 11:32 in the morning, a hydrogen bomb exploded over Xindi Island. When the hydrogen bomb exploded, all ground radio communications between the bomber and the ship were interrupted, and it was restored after an hour. The red mushroom cloud is as high as 70 kilometers! "

This hydrogen bomb not only destroyed all buildings near the explosion center, but also severely affected electronic communication systems within thousands of kilometers. The Soviet air defense radar in the Arctic was burned out, unable to detect air targets. The radio communications of command posts at all levels were interrupted, and it was impossible to communicate with the troops for more than an hour.

The U.S. military's early warning radar in Alaska and high-frequency communications within a range of 4,000 kilometers also all failed, for up to 20 hours. The electromagnetic disturbance caused by the explosion spread across the globe three times. "

Palmina said so much in one breath, but suddenly stopped and turned to look at Lin Rui. Lin Rui shrugged, "It's crazy, isn't it? You and Yankee have proven together that humans can destroy the world."

"That was a special era. It was because of that nuclear explosion that the two sides finally moved towards negotiations. In fact, after the end of the Cold War, Russia announced a plan to maintain its nuclear arsenal and announced that it reserved the right to resume nuclear tests on Novaya Zemlya. However, nuclear tests It has never been done again. In addition, Russia announced to the outside world that it is also preparing to establish nuclear waste storage sites on Novaya Zemlya Island. It is mainly used to store nuclear waste produced by the decommissioned nuclear submarines of the Russian Northern Fleet.” Palmina said.

"Generally speaking, there must be a discrepancy between the external claims and the actual situation." Lin Rui shrugged.

Palmina nodded, "Indeed, there are still some small-scale critical tests. Xindi Island has been very peaceful. Until a week ago, some unidentified militants mixed into the island. They used a raid to solve the problem. The guards of the island hijacked some scientific researchers. They also controlled a research center on Xindi Island."

"The nuclear test base is occupied by a group of militants?" Lin Rui's expression changed slightly.

"Yes, the identity of the culprits has not yet been confirmed, and they have not made any requests yet." Palmina said. "The problem is that there are tactical nuclear warheads for testing in this base. And nuclear waste stored there for testing purposes."

"The Alpha Special Forces outside do this. You have weapons and equipment, manpower and technology, and are fully capable of solving this problem. There is no need to find mercenaries." Lin Rui looked at Palmina.

"It's been almost a week, do you think we haven't tried it? They occupied the heavily guarded test center. We used various schemes, but we couldn't penetrate it. Sixty-eight people died for this. Sixty-eight are the elites of the special forces." Palmina said angrily, "We even want to destroy it with missiles before things get out of hand."

"It has been a week since this incident, but there is no news at all from the outside world. This shows that you have blocked this news, and you have blocked the news because of scruples. What is shameful about you. I understand, because once it is announced , Then you have violated the comprehensive nuclear test ban treaty." Lin Rui sneered slightly.

Palmina said calmly, “Although we used weapon-grade plutonium and highly enriched uranium in the test, there was no chain reaction or release of nuclear energy, so this subcritical test does not violate the treaty. We just don’t want to let it. This incident is too compelling, especially I don’t want to be known by the Americans. And those technical experts and tactical nuclear weapons must be preserved."

"So you have to ask a few mercenaries like us to go to the occupied nuclear test base to help you save people and help you die. It's because even your ace troops can't help it, and the mercenaries are not killed or injured. It will cause your troubles." Yelena said angrily.

"Yes, and you must do it." Palmina said slowly. "Half an hour ago, when you were in my car, my superior had reached an agreement with Silver Wolf. He took the business after all."

"This is impossible!" Yelena said in surprise, "It is impossible for the Silver Wolf to agree to this task."

"Unless he knows, we'll be over if we don't agree." Lin Rui said coldly.

Palmina shrugged and said, "I know that doing so will make me look bad. But it doesn't matter. For the country, I can sacrifice my life, let alone reputation and image. From another perspective, we The price offered to you Black Island Company is pretty good."

"I want to talk to Silver Wolf." Lin Rui said calmly.

"Impossible. From now on, the two of you will not be in contact with everyone outside. We cannot allow this matter to spread, thus affecting the interests of the Russian Federation." Palmina said coldly. "Here is the information you need to master. You have a few hours to prepare. After a few hours you will be escorted on the plane and dropped on Xindi Island."

"What if we refuse to complete the task?" Yelena gritted her teeth.

"You will not refuse, because once you show up there. Then there is no chance to survive except to eliminate those militants. Xindi Island is located in the Arctic Circle. If you can't get into the base within a few hours, then there is only one The ending-being frozen to death outside the base." Palmina said coldly, "and as long as you get in, the militants will desperately attack you. If you want to survive, if you want to survive, there is only one way to fight. "
