The city, surrounded by the red soil deserts of the Southern Hemisphere, rarely received the first heavy rain of the rainy season. The rainwater dripped down the eaves and gradually gathered into streams on the ground.
In the early morning, before Hirohito returned to his palace and fell asleep again, he ordered no one to disturb him. He didn't get up until ten o'clock in the morning, and got dressed under the service of the empress Ryoko. Hearing that it was raining, he went to the top of the castle tower to admire the hazy mist of the imperial capital.
of beautiful scenery.
Just when Hirohito had breakfast and asked the palace minister Kido Koichi about his schedule for today, cabinet members and important ministers arrived hand in hand. Hirohito was casual at first, but then his face tensed up during the war situation report from the director of education, General Hata Shunroku.
Tight.
There is nothing new in what Shunroku Hata said. The Japanese archipelago suffered a devastating blow from the Anjiajun air force. Japanese cities such as Tokyo, Osaka, Kobe, Yokohama, Kyoto, Nagoya, Hiroshima, Fukuoka, Nagasaki, and Shuri were reduced to a sea of flames. The Australian base camp and
The communication between the General Staff Headquarters and the Military Command Department remaining on the archipelago was completely cut off.
At present, the Japanese Army and Navy Air Force has dispatched reconnaissance aircraft to verify the damage, and garrisons around major cities have begun to go to disaster relief.
Hirohito thought of Itagaki Seishiro's warning last night, and he felt regretful in his heart, but his face remained calm and he asked surreptitiously:
"Didn't the gentlemen at the base camp say before that they are ready for an attack? The commander of the archipelago defense force, Umezu Yoshijiro, even vowed, saying that there are more than 200 type 5 150mm anti-aircraft guns and more than 700 type 4 75mm anti-aircraft guns deployed on the islands.
The Anjia Army's air force simply can't take a step beyond this, who can tell me what's going on now?"
The cabinet ministers and important ministers lowered their heads involuntarily and remained silent. The atmosphere was extremely awkward.
"There is no news from Commander Umezu yet. The information was sent by Admiral Takasu Shiro, Commander of the Kure Fleet!" Seishiro Itagaki did not shirk responsibility and said very sadly:
"Since the observation point is at sea, so far, it is not known how the Chinese cracked the defense of our Type 5 150mm anti-aircraft gun. In the battle with us, new weapons used by the Chinese are emerging one after another, such as ultra-long-range
The mysterious missiles pose a great threat to us. Perhaps this air defense failure is related to this.
"In addition, we have more than a thousand fighter planes deployed on the archipelago, which can theoretically play a certain interception role, but strangely, disasters still inevitably happen... Your Majesty, I suggest that the 'Broken Arrow' plan be immediately suspended
.Otherwise, I am afraid it will lead to even more bloody and cruel revenge actions by the Anjia Army!"
"coward!"
Aviation Director General Hideki Tojo said with dissatisfaction: "The disaster has occurred. Although the exact number of losses is not yet known, it must be very heavy, and may even far exceed what we suffered in the Lanyin Islands and Luzon Islands. Because of this, this
At this time, we should resolutely implement Operation Broken Arrow and strive to recover most of the losses from the Chinese!
"The empire should expose to the world the massacre of civilians by the Chinese. Announce that the imperial army will retain the right to fight back, even using biological and chemical weapons when necessary! I suggest that the Wu Gang fleet should take the initiative to attack the eastern coast of China, stationed in the Ryukyu Islands and
Taiwan's fighter planes, carrying chemical bombs, carried out air strikes on the coasts of Fujian and Zhejiang, showing the Chinese people our determination to never compromise!
"At this time, the enemy and we are fighting for willpower. If we take a step back.
Hearing this, Izaki Misaki Siriosa sank, and before he said to refute him. Former North Korean Governor of North Korea, Koji Guozo, praised: "Dongjo Jun said very much, the casualties of civilians are forcing us to yield! Over the years, the empire's empire's
Almost all industries have been relocated to Australia. The loss of the islands will never affect our fundamental!
"Since the man has destroyed the tacit understanding between us. I think not only must not only attack the local chemical bomb attacks. Also, in the Lan seal Islands and the Luzon Islands, they must also use special bombs as soon as possible to speed up the 'broken arrow' action.
Implementation! For the person, we must use a tougher means to deal with it, forcing it to be partly part! "
The Japanese Prime Minister's close Wei Wenzheng was very ashamed. He remembered that he had a warning of the Kasaki Kyo Kojiro last night, and then thought that the huge losses suffered from the Japanese islands now are inevitable.
Seeing that Ichihara Yoshiro blushed, Gu Weiwen thought for a while, and suggested: "Now the loss of the islands is still unclear, we don't need to stimulate the person ... 'Broken Arrows' Action can continue, and to support the coastal coastal coastal.
It can also be carried out in the same period, but the use of special bombs must be cautious! "
"this--"
Dongjo Yingji hesitated, and finally nodded.
Tsukaki Misako Shiro said: "His Majesty, the new weapon of the branch is endless, and no one dares to guarantee whether Emperor Jingcheng will be attacked by his mysterious missile. I ask you to consider it carefully.
avoid!"
Deep in the Australian mainland of Emperor Jingcheng, even if the pilot is not familiar with the terrain, it will be lost in the vast red soil.
It nodded to show:
"Now don't be too nervous for the time being, let's talk about all the news on the islands!"
... ...
The fire of the Japanese islands burned for three days and three nights, hidden in the mountains, forest land, and surrounding seed islands, Sulsus Island, Xindao and other islands.
The gap between the cruise quietly sent the reconnaissance aircraft to the major cities to confirm the affected situation.
The first wave of reconnaissance aircraft did not complete the task.
All the big cities that are burning are shrouded in the dark clouds. The ashes generated after the burning are permeated in the air. The high temperature and high heat in the area are quite high, and they feel that the breathing is not smooth closer.
, Guizi Air Force can only terminate the task sadly and return to their respective airports.
At the first time of discovering the fire, the Japanese troops stationed in the countryside around the big cities took the initiative to go to the city to fight fire, but they were forced back by the hot air waves. Those who were lucky to escape from the fire field seized the hands of the Japanese soldiers.
Weeping, asking the soldiers to rush into the sea of fire to save their wives and children, the scene was extremely miserable.
It wasn't until the afternoon of the third day that as the fire became smaller, some Japanese army and navy aviation reconnaissance planes flew over the city to verify the disaster over the city.
The city scene that has become a ruin. The devil pilots on the reconnaissance aircraft are shocked. Although they have long been prepared, such a tragic scene still allows the devil pilots to fall off the crocodile tears.
Take the city of Tokyo as an example. This is the largest city in the Japanese archipelago. Most of the buildings have disappeared. The bustling streets are completely unrecognizable. The wooden houses have all turned into white. However, the reinforced concrete buildings are in such a situation.
Under high temperatures, its walls also softened and most of them collapsed, leaving only a few swaying cement columns and deformed concrete walls that were crumbling.
There are no living people at all in the city, and even corpses cannot be seen in many places. That is because the flesh and blood scattered among them have become part of the fly ash.
And in the lake that was dried out by the high temperature, the corpses that were first cooked and then scorched by the high temperature were mixed with countless black objects, and for a while it was impossible to distinguish which ones were the corpses.
A reconnaissance plane lowered to a height of more than ten meters and used the aircraft machine gun on the nose to fire a round of bullets at one of the relatively well-preserved charred corpses. The corpse was quickly torn apart like quicklime meeting water.
It looks like it has been carbonized.
Another reconnaissance plane followed the same example, but the bullets fired did not shatter the humanoid object. Instead, bloody bones and colorful internal organs could be seen.
The water levels of several famous rivers in Tokyo have dropped a lot. Bodies that have been cooked alive are floating on the rivers, clothes soaked in water that cannot be burned, and pieces of wood are drifting with the current, like a pot of assorted soup, which looks extraordinarily strange.
scary. And other
The water in the small stream with a small flow dried up under the long-term high temperature. Countless fish, shrimps and charred corpses were scattered on the river bed. The corpses showed various strange postures due to the painful struggle of the deceased, and the air was filled with
Burnt smell.
When the fire was completely extinguished on the fourth day, Japanese ground troops finally entered the city to search for and rescue survivors.
What made Japan feel deeply desperate was that none of the people who hid in air-raid shelters and basements were spared, including Chief of Staff Tada Shun, Military Chief Osamu Nagano, and Commander of the Japanese Islands Defense Force Umezu Yoshijiro. They all died in tragic circumstances.
Most of the deceased died of suffocation due to depletion of oxygen. Some died because the bunker could not be closed off from the outside world, and the hot air directly roasted people into charcoal.
Some bunkers are far from the surface. As a result, the hot air that penetrates burns the lungs of those who are in them. People have to endure the pain of burning their skin and lungs and die miserably. Usually, most Japanese who die like this
Use your hands to scratch the blistered skin on your lower body surface that has been roasted by the high temperature, making your body feel like meat that has been roasted on a charcoal fire.
Many Japanese people involved in the search and rescue were nauseated and vomited when they smelled the smell of meat permeating the basement. Then they would have allergic reactions to the smell of meat for several months.
...
Hirohito received reports of damage to the archipelago for several days in a row, and saw vivid photos of on-site deaths, as if he was personally there, and had constant nightmares.
Base camp is assessing the damage.
The unprecedented scale of Anjiajun's bombing caused damage to 80% of the commercial areas, 90% of the residential areas and 70% of the industrial areas in the Tokyo area alone, most of which were destroyed.
Due to the fire. Although Japanese industry had long been consciously dispersed to the Australian mainland, fifty-six arsenals in the Tokyo area were completely burned down, and the losses to those small family workshops were inestimable.
In this air raid, the death toll in Japan exceeded 3 million, and more than 4 million people were burned to varying degrees. The loss of personnel and property was extremely heavy.
Conservative estimates put the property losses destroyed in the fire at more than 10 billion U.S. dollars, and other invisible economic losses are even more difficult to assess. The Japanese army's "Broken Arrow" operation has not been carried out very smoothly. So far, the Chinese in Lanyin Islands and Luzon Islands have lost their lives.
The resistance movement was in the ascendant, and the Japanese could be said to have stolen the chicken but lost the rice.
The entire Japanese people were in a state of excitement, and calls for "Chinese people must pay for their debts with blood" were heard one after another. Under such circumstances, the Japanese military base camp made the decision to "attack with biological and chemical weapons."
Unable to stop the top-down fanaticism of the Japanese army, Itagaki Seishiro had no choice but to admonish Hirohito again and quickly left the Imperial City to prevent possible retaliation from the An family army at any time.
Hirohito, who had personally witnessed the tragic scenes on the archipelago, had long been frightened to death. This time he did not dare to persist anymore, and hurriedly took his family and some important officials to the hot spring villa for "vacation and recuperation".
