Double-Cut During the War of Resistance: My Wife Came from 1937

"What? The price is so cheap?"

Commander Liu's eyes widened in disbelief.

It should be noted that the entire Eighth Route Army only has 34 radios in total.

They use these 34 radios to command their current army of 50,000 to 60,000 men, as well as their bases in various locations.

It wasn't until 44 years later, seven years later, that they owned 675 radio stations.

These 18 walkie-talkies are equivalent to 18 radio stations.

Crucially, these walkie-talkies allowed the division headquarters to directly contact the regimental commanders below.

It was much more convenient than radio and field telephones.

Moreover, there's no need to worry about the information being intercepted by the Japanese or the DPP.

"Sir, besides this, I also brought back some other things."

At this moment, Xia Weiwei spoke again.

"Anything else good?"

Commander Liu quickly said, "What else do you have? Why don't you bring it all out?"

"good!"

Xia Weiwei communicated with the storage space again and took out the items inside.

To the astonishment of Commander Liu and Political Commissar Zhang, many pieces of white paper with small print appeared on the ground.

In addition, there were more than a dozen bags of candy and pork packaged in plastic bags.

"Those papers were printed with 'The Barefoot Doctor's Manual,' 'Militia Military Training Manual,' 'Friends of Dual-Use Military and Civilian Talents,' 'The Five Small Industrial Technology Series,' and 'The Principles of Radio.'"

Xia Weiwei explained, "They correspond to various fields such as medicine, military, management, industry, radio, and explosives, and they are all most suitable for our current situation."

"Oh?"

Commander Liu suddenly stood up and came closer.

He found the "Militia Military Training Manual" and picked up a stack of it to read.

"Air defense, atomic defense, chemical defense—basic knowledge?"

Commander Liu read aloud: "The future of warfare will be like pressing a button. That is to say, when the enemy launches a war, they will not send their troops into battle first, but will instead strike pre-marked military bases and attack the targets with missiles..."

As he read on, Commander Liu couldn't help but frown and ask, "Xia, do you know what missiles, atomic bombs, and hydrogen bombs are?"

"I know."

Xia Weiwei nodded and said, "That's the most advanced technology of the future world. Missiles are bombs specially transported by rockets, capable of directly attacking the homelands of the United States or the British and French powers from northern Shaanxi!"

"And atomic and hydrogen bombs are even more terrifyingly powerful; one is enough to destroy a city!"

"If a missile is loaded with an atomic or hydrogen bomb warhead, it could directly destroy any city on Earth from China, even if it's tens of thousands of kilometers away!"

"What did you say?"

Commander Liu swallowed hard and exclaimed in surprise, "Future weapons that can attack from China to the United States?"

He found it hard to believe.

Because such weapons are beyond their comprehension.

If they possessed such weapons, could they simply raze Tokyo to the ground and end the war?

"Sir, such weapons do exist, and they're not far from us!"

Xia Weiwei said in a deep voice: "As early as three years ago, Enrique Fermi first achieved uranium nuclear fission in the laboratory."

"In February of this year (37 years ago), Germany launched the Uranium Program and began secretly developing nuclear weapons."

"By 42, the United States will also launch the Manhattan Project and begin manufacturing nuclear weapons."

"Eight years later, in July 1945, the United States was able to develop an atomic bomb and successfully detonate it."

「等到45年的8月6日和9日，美帝将会在脚盆鸡广岛和长崎投放原子弹，15日脚盆鸡天皇就会宣布无条件投降。」

"At most eight years later, the atomic bomb will appear in the United States, while the Soviet Union will not be able to develop its atomic bomb until August 1949, a full four years later than the United States!"

"Our first atomic bomb will be developed in October 64, 10 years from now. Three years later, our hydrogen bomb will also be developed!"

"The hydrogen bomb is a weapon even more powerful than the atomic bomb!"

"Eight years?"

Upon hearing Xia Weiwei's words, Commander Liu and Political Commissar Zhang both fell silent.

They originally thought this weapon would appear in a few decades, but it turned out to be only eight years later.

During those eight years, the entire Chinese nation was busy resisting the invasion of Japan and had no time to research the atomic bomb.

In contrast, overseas, companies are now developing their own versions of Sandezi.

"Why!"

Commander Liu slammed his fist on the table and roared, "The Manchu Qing dynasty ruined China!"

If it weren't for the corrupt and backward Qing government, how could China have been bullied by the great powers one after another?

How could they be bullied like this by Japan, such a tiny and insignificant country?

"Sir, this is the video of the US dropping atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan!"

Xia Weiwei took out her phone, opened the Bilibili cache, and started playing it for the two of them.

Commander Liu and Political Commissar Zhang immediately became interested, eager to see just how terrifying the atomic bomb was.

The video is titled "[4K Color Restoration] Restoring History: The Entire Process of the Atomic Bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki!"

The video begins with a U.S. Air Force base, where a huge silver Boeing B-29 bomber is flying in front of the ground.

The scene shifts to three enormous superfortresses taking off into the sky and heading into the distance, with clouds drifting below them.

At the same time, English audio played, with a line of yellow text below it.

"Two minutes until bombing, no fighter jets intercepting, no anti-aircraft fire at the moment!"

"Ugh~~"

The piercing air raid sirens blared, and anti-aircraft guns began to fire at the aircraft in the air.

The narrator explains: "[The little boy] is a gun-type uranium-235 fission bomb, weighing approximately 9700 pounds, or 4400 kilograms. Its design... triggers an uncontrollable chain reaction, releasing approximately 15000 tons of TNT equivalent."

"At 8:15, the Enola Guy reached the optimal bombing point. Ferreby activated the mechanism, opened the bomb bay, and dropped the atomic bomb codenamed 'Little Boy' on Hiroshima."

Upon seeing the atomic bomb fall, Commander Liu and Political Commissar Zhang immediately sat up straight, holding their breath and focusing intently on the screen.

What they saw first was a screen full of white light, dazzling and hard to look at directly, just like a sun.

As the camera zoomed out, the two saw an enormous mushroom cloud appear directly between heaven and earth, burning everything around it.

"boom!"

At the same time, a deafening roar echoed between heaven and earth.

A terrifying shockwave swept in all directions, destroying countless buildings in the vicinity.

"Of Hiroshima's approximately 35 residents, 7 to 8 died on the spot from the shockwave and the high temperatures. Every month thereafter, people died from radiation sickness and cancer, bringing the total death toll to over 14."
