More than 60.00% of the dozens of rockets hit the British aircraft carrier, and then produced a violent explosion, which was also mixed with a particularly violent explosion, which has completely overturned the upper deck of the "HMS Eagle". The torpedoes hung under the torpedo planes docked on the aircraft carrier were detonated by rockets, and the chain explosion of more than a dozen heavy torpedoes was earth-shattering. The huge body of the aircraft carrier "Eagle" sank and floated like floating water Ping.Then the British aircraft carrier was shrouded in fire, and the fire continued to detonate the bombs on the aircraft carrier. The British aircraft carrier was completely finished, and there was no possibility of rescue. The commander of the British aircraft carrier was not killed, and quickly issued an order to abandon the ship.

The first round of attack achieved such a big result, which made everyone unexpected. Cunningham, the commander of the British Mediterranean Fleet, was so distressed that he almost cried, but before Cunningham could cry, the SS The corps' second wave of dive bombing began, and now it was the turn of the British battleships.

"Srust... rust... boom..."

Even if the upper deck of a British battleship is not the thickest part, it will not be less than 100 mm thick. The 31 kg rocket is really useless. Of course, the huge fort cannot be blown up, but these four British battleships The anti-aircraft artillery above does not have any thick armor. The second wave of attacks caused the loss rate of the anti-aircraft artillery on the four British battleships to reach 60.00%.

The third wave of bombing followed, and the British Mediterranean Fleet could only be bombed passively. Cunningham quickly ordered his fleet to disperse, for the latest airborne use of rockets.Cunningham was forced to disperse his fleet.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..."

Cunningham's fleet was a great effort.Only then let the fleet let go.Separation is separation, but the relative anti-aircraft firepower has also weakened, and the British naval ships have less mutual defense. Now the British Mediterranean Fleet is in a miserable situation, because the SS bombers that come behind are all carrying 500 kg aircraft. Bombs, this level of aerial bombs, even battleships can't handle them.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..."

The British warships began to flee and were routed.Can warships outrun planes?Of course not. The warships of the British Mediterranean Fleet were named one by one. First, the rockets made the British warships lose their anti-aircraft weapons, then the aerial bombs, and then the b-29 strategic bombers. Yes, all British warships without resistance were sent to the bottom of the sea.This basically turned into a one-sided slaughter, Lord Cunningham's flagship. The battleship "War Spite" was also sent to the bottom of the sea.And Cunningham himself disappeared without a trace along with this huge warship.

Under the strategic bombing of the German SS, the British Mediterranean Fleet disappeared.

In February 1937, Nazi Germany began to implement the "Uranium Project". In 2, after Pearl Harbor, the United States entered World War II and declared war on Nazi Germany.Some American scientists proposed to build the atomic bomb before Nazi Germany.At this time, Germany's advanced weapons and Germany's combat effectiveness also made the United States deeply feel that it would be difficult to defeat Germany with only conventional weapons. Therefore, Roosevelt began to implement the top-secret project "Manhattan Project" under the suggestion of American scientists.

By August 1940, 8, the United States formally formulated a top-secret plan code-named "Manhattan".President Roosevelt gave this plan "a special priority over all actions." The Manhattan Project was staggeringly large.Since it was not known which of the three methods for splitting uranium-6 was the best, the fission work had to be carried out simultaneously with the three methods.This complex project has become the melting pot of American science. In the "Manhattan" project management area, a large number of scientists from all over the world, led by Oppenheimer, gathered.The number of scientists is unimaginable. In some departments, there are even more people with doctorate titles than the average staff, and many of them are Nobel Prize winners. At its peak, the "Manhattan" project employed 235 people and cost a total of 3 billion U.S. dollars.This is unmatched by any previous weapon experiment.

Now the physical engineers sent by Zhang Jun to the United States began to apply for or recommend ways to enter the "Manhattan Project" in the United States. Mao Renfeng was solely responsible for this work. When Zhang Jun received Mao Renfeng's report, Repeatedly told Mao Renfeng to do everything possible to destroy or delay the progress of research and development in the United States. It is best to completely destroy it, and it is best for the chief scientist to solve it directly.

The specific implementation depends on Mao Renfeng. Zhang Jun is not engaged in intelligence work, and has little experience in this field, but Mao Renfeng is still very good at intelligence work. Mao Renfeng is also responsible for destroying the "Manhattan Project" current main job.Of course, the United States has also set up a special anti-espionage organization to protect the "Manhattan Project." Joining the "Manhattan Project" of the United States, this undoubtedly took the lead, and the "Manhattan Project" of the United States is in danger.

The ultimate goal of the Manhattan Project was to build an atomic bomb as quickly as possible.Although the executive committee affirmed its feasibility before this plan, there are still a large number of theoretical and engineering technical problems to be solved in order to realize this new explosion.On the recommendation of Lawrence, Compton and others, Groves asked Oppenheimer to take charge of this work.In order to successfully complete the atomic bomb research program, according to Oppenheimer's suggestion, the military authorities decided to establish a new research base for fast neutron reaction and atomic bomb structure, which was later known as Los Alamos Laboratory.With his talent and wisdom, as well as his deep insight into the atomic bomb, Oppenheimer was appointed director of the Los Alamos Laboratory.It is precisely because of such a crucial appointment that he won the title of "Father of the Atomic Bomb" in the United States in the future.

奥本海默开始时对困难估计不足，认为只要6名物理学家和100多名工程技术人员就足够了。但实验室到1940年12月时，发展到拥有2000多名文职研究人员和3000多名军事人员，其中包括1000多名科学家。

Given that most scientists opposed the militarization of the laboratory, Groves agreed that the University of California would become Los Alamos' nominal management unit and contract guarantee unit, with the military at the base responsible for laboratory construction, logistics, and security.This ensures free academic discussion within the laboratory.Oppenheimer encouraged scientists to boldly discuss scientific issues related to the atomic bomb, and suggested that even the opinions of the gatekeepers would be of some help to the success of the atomic bomb.Oppenheimer listened to anyone's opinion, mastered the entire experimental process.

They themselves are not even as clear as Oppenheimer about the details and progress of their work.On many issues, it was due to Oppenheimer's decision that breakthroughs were made, which ensured the implementation of the atomic bomb development schedule.Oppenheimer's prestige among scientists, rank-and-file workers, and government officials grew.Los Alamos is known as the "Concentration Camp for Nobel Prize Winners", and Oppenheimer is called the "Campmaster" of this concentration camp.Oppenheimer has not won a Nobel Prize, but has such a high personal prestige, which shows his organizational skills and charisma.

Of the 15 people who worked in the "Manhattan Engineering District," only 12 knew the full plan.These twelve people are the targets of the German spies, but it is not easy to enter the heavily guarded "Manhattan Engineering Zone", but the method is thought up by humans, even if necessary, it is possible to sacrifice a few engineers and spies who have mixed in. In this case It is only used when there is no other way to do it. It is better not to expose the engineer spies who sneaked into the "Manhattan Project".

In fact, very few of the crew knew that they were in the business of building an atomic bomb.For example, the Los Alamos Computing Center has been performing complex calculations for a long time, but most of the staff do not understand the practical significance of these jobs.Since they do not know the purpose of work, it is impossible to make them have a real interest in work.Since then, the work here has reached a peak, and many staff members voluntarily stay and work overtime.Through the hard work of all staff, many technical and engineering problems of the atomic bomb were solved.

At the beginning, the UK and the US exchanged information on nuclear energy, but did not cooperate. In 1940, Bush and Conant invited the United Kingdom to join in to strengthen the project, but the United Kingdom flatly refused.Because they are unwilling to share their leading technology, and they are unwilling to help the United States develop their nuclear weapons.However, since the United Kingdom does not have sufficient manpower and material resources as the United States, it is not willing to lag behind the United States.On July 1940, 7, Churchill and Roosevelt made an informal, unwritten agreement on atomic cooperation.

This equal partnership did not last long, however. In August 1940, the United Kingdom demanded substantial control of the project without disbursing any funds, which the United States refused.Relations between Britain and the United States were reversed.Britain's negotiating position deteriorated, and American scientists decided not to accept any outside help.The U.S. nuclear policy committee also worried that Britain would build wartime nuclear weapons.

In September 1940, Conant took the risk of exposing the secrets of the weapon design to invite James Chadwick and several other British scientists to Los Angeles to participate in the design of the atomic bomb, because the project desperately needed their kind of technicians. In October 9, Churchill and Roosevelt signed the Quebec Agreement, which restored mutual cooperation between scientists on scientific research issues.The US has invested more than US$1940 billion in this project, while the UK has invested only £10.

A sign encouraging Oak Ridge workers to keep it secret reads in English: "Whatever you see, do, and hear here, stay here when you leave."
