"Ah, what is that?" The soldiers of the Guards Division 500 meters away from the palace were panicked, because some of them discovered that some metal cylinders were being projected from inside the palace to the outside, and they appeared on the walls of the palace.
The people outside who are projecting these cylinders, on their heads
They all wore gas masks. "No, it's a gas bomb, it's a gas bomb. Retreat, retreat." As the Guards Division defending Tokyo, they were not equipped with gas masks. They faced metal circles that could spit red smoke.
Barrel, all they can do is retreat in a swarm.
Zhang Hua and the others projected at least more than 40 metal cylinders from the walls of the palace. Red smoke appeared in all four directions of the palace. The red smoke was not poisonous gas at all, but Zhang Hua and the others were trying to inject it into the bombers.
A smoke grenade used as a direction guide for airborne troops. Red smoke is ejected from a metal cylinder and disperses very slowly in the air. The textured red smoke decorates the palace surrounded by it like a dream world.
The soldiers of the Guards Division who had fled far away looked at each other and found that they and their companions did not appear to be affected by the poison gas. Some of the bolder ones planned to turn back. After all, the Emperor and their division commander were still there.
In the palace, a shrill scream suddenly fell from the sky. Veterans with battlefield experience were scattered in search of hiding places, because they were familiar with the sound in the air. This was bombers dropping bombs, and the place where they were staying was
Where bombers dropped their bombs.
More than a dozen American bombers appeared in the sky. When a large number of Japanese fighter planes were entangled by U.S. fighter planes on the waters of Tokyo Bay, Tokyo had nothing that could pose a threat to these bombers. Of course, the anti-aircraft firepower deployed by the Japanese on the ground was not included.
, it’s just that these anti-aircraft positions encountered attacks of unknown origin before the US military launched a major bombing of Tokyo Bay. It would be good if 20% of those anti-aircraft guns can still fire. Such anti-aircraft fire is not a threat to bombers at all.
Tokyo, which has lost its air superiority and has no anti-aircraft artillery fire, is like a resentful woman who has been stripped of her clothes. The bombers swooping down from mid-air to drop bombs can blow up whatever they want. If the Japanese army can rely on their own light and heavy machine guns to shoot down these bombers
, then we can only say that the luck of the US military pilots is too bad, but the probability of such a thing is extremely small.
It almost never appears here. "Boom" "Boom" The bombs dropped by the US bombers exploded one after another along the place where the red smoke appeared. The accuracy of low-altitude flight bombing was extremely high. All US military pilots were able to ensure that the bombs they dropped appeared.
Within a range of 500 to 1,000 meters outside the palace, it will never harm the palace.
Zhang Hua took such a big risk and called in the bombers. How could he just let them drop some aerial bombs? After all the bombers dropped a round of aerial bombs, the bombers that circled in the sky circled back again.
What was thrown out of the cabin this time was Thunder's powerful incendiary bomb. The fire in the sky isolated the connection between the Guards Division and the Imperial Palace. No one could pass through the sea of fire more than several hundred meters in length unscathed, not even the Japanese medium-sized bombs.
Tanks can't do it either.
After all the ammunition they had brought was discharged, the transport plane began to return. Before the Japanese troops on the ground could breathe a sigh of relief, more than a dozen U.S. fighter jets appeared in the sky. Their large-caliber cannons kept chasing the Japanese troops on the ground.
The fighting was fierce, and the Japanese troops outside the fire scene complained repeatedly, and they could only move farther
They fled from place to place. Fighters with powerful firepower were circling back and forth in the sky. More than a dozen transport planes descending from the clouds began to appear in the sight of the Japanese soldiers. The bald eagle pattern on the wings of the transport planes reminded them that these transport planes belonged to
Property of the United States Government.
"Beep beep beep" the alarm of the transport plane rang, and the small red light indicating that the airdrop was ready lit up in the cabin. The Thunder airborne troops sitting in the cabin got up and made final preparations. If it was to conceal the aircraft
Traces, the altitude at which airborne troops conduct airdrops is generally several thousand
At an altitude of 600 meters, too much noise from the aircraft will attract the enemy's attention. But now there is no anti-aircraft artillery fire in Tokyo, and the transport planes transporting the airborne troops have lowered their altitude to only 600 meters, so that the airborne troops will descend faster.
, the relative risk will be much smaller.
The airborne troops dispatched this time are all the most elite soldiers of the First Airborne Division. According to the training outline given by Zhao Zhi, the First Airborne Division had already carried out airborne landings of a minimum of 500 meters and a height of 600 meters in Myanmar before returning to China to join the war.
It's nothing to them
.The 300 people who participated in this operation were all equipped with Thunder's most sophisticated equipment, including tactical vests, bulletproof vests, and night vision goggles. They were armed to the teeth and were backed by two transport planes loaded with ammunition. Even the Thor revolver
Machine guns, they also brought four.
The transport plane circled again, and the green signal light in the cabin finally turned on. The commander leading the team was the first to jump out of the cabin, followed by the airborne troops behind him who also jumped out. "Look, it's paratroopers. They use paratroopers."
Now." appeared in mid-air
The umbrella flowers caught the attention of the Japanese troops on the ground. Unfortunately, the paratroopers' destination was the Japanese Imperial Palace surrounded by fire. The Japanese troops, who were hundreds of meters away from the fire scene, had no time to stop the Thunderbolt Airborne, which was airborne from a height of 600 meters.
soldiers.
Large wooden boxes with parachutes were pushed out of the cabin one by one. They were filled with supplies and ammunition. Before the ground troops landing in Tokyo Bay could not enter the city of Tokyo, the commandos and airborne squads had to rely on these ammunition to hold on to the palace.
12 tons of ammunition and supplies dropped from a large transport plane.
It was enough for Zhang Hua and the others to hold on in the palace for half a month. The Japanese army did not expect that the purpose of the US military's bombers and fighter jets was just to clear obstacles for the airborne troops. If they had known about this earlier, there would definitely be guys who were not afraid of death and would hide in the palace.
Wait around the palace to shoot the parachuted enemy troops.
Unfortunately, it was already too late now. All the paratroopers who parachuted from a height of 600 meters landed in a short time. Except for a few who were really unlucky and fell into the fire, the remaining more than 00 people were all safe.
Landed in the area within the red smoke. "Send a message to sir, the bird is returning to its nest." Zhang Hua saw the umbrella flower in mid-air falling into the safe area, and immediately came down to call the fleet back, and then asked his team members to open the palace's
The gate receives airborne troops and supplies scattered outside.
Zhang Hua, who successfully captured the imperial palace, visited the Japanese Imperial Palace while laying out his defenses. The Japanese Imperial Palace is a large traditional Japanese building with green tile roofs, white walls and brown copper pillars.
.The main hall is the central part of the entire palace, where the main activities and external activities of the Japanese royal family are
The communion ceremony is held in the "Matsu no Pavilion" in the main hall. Chowaden is the place where the emperor receives congratulations from the masses. There is a grand banquet hall in the Homeiden hall, and Jōgoden is the emperor's inner palace. In addition, there is Hanain Pavilion in the palace.
It consists of Waterfall Pavilion, Shuangjin Pavilion, Tea Room, Huangling Hall, Treasure Hall, Shrine, Old Imperial Library, etc.
Zhang Hua was quite bored with the Japanese imperial palace. To put it simply, it was a bunch of tight things in a big place. After all, the poor people had little foundation and could not afford to see big scenes. They dared to call a palace the size of a hut.
I had to make repeated tactical deductions before taking action. If there was a chance, these Japanese should really let these Japanese see what the inner courtyard of the imperial palace in Beijing was like.
However, Zhang Hua is quite satisfied with the Japanese Imperial City built with large stones. With such a wall, it is much easier for them to defend. There is also a moat surrounding the imperial palace, which effectively connects the imperial palace to the city outside.
The isolation is open, and the moat is also open.
It was a good helper for their defense. The moat and city wall turned the palace, which the Japanese said was like a paradise, into an isolated island. However, this isolated city was very mysterious in the minds of the Japanese, so it was even more determined that the Japanese army did not dare to use it.
Heavy weapons attack the palace.
Not all of the 300 people who were airborne by US military transport planes were combat troops. They were also mixed with many of the best combat engineers from the Thunder Army. Moreover, not all of the dozens of large wooden boxes dropped by the transport planes contained weapons.
Ammunition, there are also some tools and equipment necessary for engineers. Zhang Hua and the others are a lone force deep in the tiger's den. A slight deviation may cause the entire commando team to be buried in the palace, so Zhao Zhi must do his best to provide them with the necessary support.
Before the fire around the palace was extinguished, U.S. military transport planes helped Thunder's airborne troops carry out two airdrops to the palace. The Japanese thought hard and couldn't figure out how these American transport planes took off from warships. In fact,
This matter is very simple. Anyone who helps the Thunder fight against the Emperor
The U.S. military transport planes that carried out the airdrop to the Imperial Palace all took off from Yamaguchi Prefecture. When the Japanese fighter planes were fighting on two fronts, no one noticed the large number of U.S. military transport planes that took off from Yamaguchi Prefecture. Therefore, it is not so much that Thunder launched a surprise attack on the Imperial Palace.
It was the Japanese's own negligence that caused the fall of the imperial palace.
1,100 people, this is all the troops Zhang Hua has now. All the supplies dropped by the air have been moved into the palace. For at least the next three days, Zhang Hua and the others will have to rely on these supplies to hold on to the isolated island of the palace. "Captain
, I found something good." One of Zhang Hua's team members who was in charge of perimeter security ran over, with no expression on his painted face, but the joy in his eyes was clearly visible.
When Zhang Hua rushed to the main entrance of the palace, two Type 97 medium tanks belonging to the Guards Division were being driven into the palace by Thunder engineers. "Maybe the Japanese army rushed into the building in a panic when they were bombed. We found this
When there were two big guys, they were still collapsing
In the ruins, we used explosives to blow up the ruins before driving them back." The Jewish engineers who struggled to get out of the tank sat proudly on the turret to show off to Zhang Hua and the others that they had such heavy equipment as the tank in their hands.
, Zhang Hua and the others have a better chance of winning by holding on to the palace.
