Chapter 1279 Depressed, Helpless, Dazed West(1/2)

Sendai, U.S. Far East Force Headquarters.

"Two generals, our peripheral intelligence personnel have reported back that a deafening explosion did occur in Tokyo yesterday."

Colonel Layton, the intelligence chief, told MacArthur and General Stilwell:

"A shining white light appeared in the sky, and then the whole world dimmed, and shock waves carrying dust continued to collide among the valleys.

Nearly 24 hours have passed, but we have still been unable to contact the intelligence personnel in Tokyo. We don't know the specific situation in the city, but from the side, it is estimated that what the Zhongxia people said should be close to ten.

They did use weapons of mass destruction!"

The Zhongxia government has announced this news to the world, but currently, apart from Zhongxia's own army, the U.S. military is closest to Tokyo.

MacArthur and General Stilwell were tasked with determining the true existence of weapons of mass destruction, and the White House and London were waiting for their confirmation.

Colonel Layton's report was still just some conjectures and conjectures, and no actual evidence could be produced. MacArthur frowned, with a look of anxiety on his face. He looked at General Stilwell and asked:

"When will our reconnaissance plane come back?"

General Stilwell raised his wrist and glanced at the time, and replied anxiously:

"It will take at least another hour."

On the morning of the 20th, after receiving the letter of notification from Zhongxia, the White House asked General MacArthur and General Stilwell to prepare for aerial reconnaissance as soon as possible.

After the big explosion, the two sent a high-altitude reconnaissance plane to Tokyo. However, the sky was very polluted at that time, and thick smoke billowed from the ground, blocking the sky and the sun. The reconnaissance plane returned without success.

On the morning of the 21st, MacArthur couldn't wait and sent another reconnaissance plane to determine the situation in Tokyo after the attack.

In the past half month, MacArthur felt very depressed and aggrieved.

He originally wanted to use absolute force to become the controller of Japan and the king of the Far East, but Washington suddenly asked him to stop all-out attacks and even transferred the main force of Nimitz's Pacific Fleet to other places. Admiral Kim was also recalled

Joint Chiefs of Staff.

All these actions will indicate that major changes are about to take place in the Far East.

As expected, first Zhongxia's notification letter and then Jiangdong's speech shocked the whole world. Almost the entire Western world was dreaming about what kind of weapon it was.

Although no concrete evidence has been obtained, MacArthur is mentally inclined to believe the Chinese government's statement.

This also means that the war in the East is about to end completely, and the future world pattern will undergo major changes.

His majestic ambitions could not be realized, and the millions of allied troops in his hands were useless.

The Allies will completely lose the opportunity to compete with the Central Xia people on the eastern battlefield, and will be in a very passive position.

How could the arrogant MacArthur not feel depressed and aggrieved?

General Stilwell was a China expert. Within an hour of waiting for the reconnaissance plane to report back, the two men once again discussed the issues they had discussed many times in the past:

How did Zhongxia revive in such a short period of time?

Faced with an increasingly passive situation, what countermeasures should we take?

General Stilwell also couldn't understand the rapid revival of Zhongxia and could only interpret it from the angle and field he was familiar with.

As for how to effectively ensure the West's interests in the Far East, General Stilwell believed that since the possibility of fighting for hegemony by force was lost, the only option was cooperation.

This is what MacArthur cannot accept the most, but he must accept it at this moment.

An hour later, the reconnaissance plane that went out for reconnaissance landed at the airport. A large number of films were taken out of the plane and then quickly transferred to the hands of the military intelligence department.

Ordinary American soldiers also heard the news about Zhongxia's use of destructive weapons to attack Tokyo, so when the crew members stepped off the plane, comrades and colleagues swarmed around and asked about everything they saw.

The crew members assigned to conduct the investigation were pale and their foreheads were covered with cold sweat.

Facing the inquiries from their colleagues, it took these people a long time to respond. They seemed to be frightened, hesitating and saying vaguely:

"Tokyo... is gone... gone."

"We only saw ruins that stretched for 20 to 30 kilometers. The eye-catching buildings, streets, bridges, roads, etc. marked on the aerial map before were all missing."

"You can see a lot of people gathering on the ground, but they are like walking zombies and will not respond to any stimulation from the outside."

"There are troops busy on and outside the ruins, seemingly rescuing survivors."

After hearing these answers, the crowd fell silent, and some people kept exclaiming God.

In the silence, someone asked again:

"In other words, the Zhongxia people really built a bomb equivalent to 30,000 tons of TNT?

The war is over?"

The pale pilot nodded.

After another half an hour, Colonel Layton found General Stilwell and MacArthur with the cleaned photos.

The two couldn't wait any longer and immediately put their heads together.

Colonel Layton thought very comprehensively. He used a photo of Tokyo in the past to compare it with Tokyo today.

The picture is very clear, allowing people to see the difference immediately and intuitively feel the shocking power of the devastating weapon.

"hiss!"

MacArthur and General Stilwell gasped at the same time. Both of them felt their scalps numb and a series of resistance emotions coming from their brains.

Colonel Layton was equally shocked.

"Comparing the two photos, we can clearly see that 80% to 90% of the huge Tokyo city has been destroyed, the outermost cement buildings remain partially intact, and the wooden buildings have all collapsed.

It is obvious that this is the core of the explosion."

Colonel Layton's finger pointed at the original location of Radio Tokyo.

That area has been completely turned into powder and is very blurry in the photo.

MacArthur's thinking was sharp. He immediately thought of the Japanese base camp and hurriedly compared the two photos to find the location of the base camp on the ruins.

When his eyes locked on that place, he swallowed subconsciously and his eyes widened.

The Japanese base camp is located on the periphery of the core of the explosion, but it is also one of the hardest-hit places. Its original outline and appearance can no longer be seen.

"No one can survive such a blow!" MacArthur muttered, looking at the location of the original Japanese base camp:

"In other words, the Japanese government has been blamed!"

Colonel Layton and General Stilwell nodded silently.

MacArthur took a deep breath to suppress the violent rise and fall of his chest. After his emotions stabilized, he said to Colonel Layton:

"Report immediately to Washington to confirm the real existence of weapons of mass destruction. Tokyo has been wiped off the face of the earth!"

This is related to the pace of subsequent talks between China and the United States.

Then he said to General Stilwell:

"Now Japan must be in chaos. Order the 10th Army to move forward and test the Japanese reaction!"

On the afternoon of the 20th Eastern Time of the United States, China and the United States once again issued a joint declaration, urging Japan to accept the Allied Manila Conference's announcement on Japan and surrender unconditionally.

MacArthur believed that in the face of such destructive weapons, any resistance would be futile, and the Japanese would definitely choose to surrender unconditionally to the Allies as soon as the chaos was over.

He hoped to enter Japan's Kanto region before the Central Xia army.

It's just that Westerners have never been able to understand Japanese thinking, and MacArthur's guess at this time was also wrong.

The contradiction between the chrysanthemum and the sword destined the fanatical Japanese soldiers not to give up easily. The more panicked the people, the more hysterical and desperate counterattack they showed became more difficult to resist.

...

News from the Far East reached Washington and then London.

The Prime Minister's face was solemn. Even though his brain was thinking rapidly, he could not imagine what force could stop the rise of the Zhongxia people under the current situation.

Deputy Prime Minister Attlee found it difficult to remain calm and kept pacing in circles in the conference room.

Attlee's first consideration was the interests of the Empire in the Far East.

If Zhongxia takes the lead in successfully developing destructive weapons, they will definitely occupy a dominant position in future negotiations.

The Orientals will definitely extend their influence to Kalimantan, Sumatra, New Guinea and other places.

Even if this world war can be won, the strength of the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets will be greatly reduced.
