The Yasukuni Shrine in Kudanzaka was also attacked by incendiary bombs from more than 20 B-29 bombers. The fastest update 78 novels // Because of the accumulation of technology in the development of bat bombs, the Americans can now control the explosion height of bombs without using VT fuses. Of course, their JĪNG efficiency is not comparable to that of VT fuzes, but both the Navy and the Army Aviation are adamantly opposed to the use of VT fuses on bombs dropped on enemy-controlled areas. Because if, for some reason, the bomb with the VT fuse does not explode, and the fuse falls into the hands of the enemy, and then assuming that the enemy quickly copies this thing and then loads it in the shells of the high gun, it will be a nightmare for the American bomber forces.

Therefore, all bombs that need to be exploded in the air are not allowed to use VT fuzes at present, but only timed fuzes with worse reliability and jīng degrees. Under the control of these fuses, the napalm incendiary bombs dropped by the B-29 bomber would explode at an altitude of about 200 meters from the target, dropping 24 bomblets in all directions, each of which would explode at an altitude of about 50 meters above the ground, and drop hundreds of flaming napalm blocks on the ground. These small, burning sticky particles can easily ignite any flammable product anywhere they land. Yes, flammable. The burning power of this thing must be incomprehensible to the white phosphorus incendiary bomb that can burn through the cement or get on the body, and it is almost impossible to get rid of and cannot be extinguished, except for digging up that piece of flesh.

But compared to these two things, napalm is cheap, and it's especially useful to light wooden buildings like rìmoto. Now, more than 20 B-29 napalm incendiary bombs have exploded one after another over the Yasukuni Shrine, and countless fires have been spilled.

Takeo Kanai is a night watchman at the Yasukuni Shrine, and it was his turn to be on duty that night. In fact, there is nothing to do on this kind of duty. In the early years, there were cases of thieves breaking into the Yasukuni Shrine at night to steal things, but it was a lowly "Three Kingdoms" (rì himself was a contemptuous name for the Koreans and Taiwanese who were under the rule of Rì Ben at the time), and the descendants of the authentic Yamato would never do such a thing. The "Three Kingdoms" was caught on the spot, and then immediately dealt with on the spot by the crowd who rushed to hear the news. And now, those "Three Kingdoms" who are not loyal to the big rìben have long been cleared out of Tokyo, and now there will definitely be no one here to steal chickens and dogs.

Takeo Imai took a turn at the first gate. The first gate of the current Yasukuni Shrine is newly built. Originally, the gate was built in 1921 and was cast in copper and iron, but in 43 years, due to the lack of supplies during the war, the gate was demolished and made for guns. Then Rì himself built the current one on the same site out of wood.

At this time, Takeo Imai suddenly heard the terrible screams of the air defense jǐng newspaper. Today's Rì himself is not as calm as he was during the Doolittle air raid in 1942. At that time, Rì himself thought it was a drill after the air defense jǐng newspaper sounded, and even went to an open place to watch, but now, it is not the first time that Rì has been bombed in this city. All of them know that this kind of jǐng newspaper is no joke now.

Before Kanai could call everyone up, the bombs of the Americans fell. As the incendiary bomb exploded in midair, countless dark red sè flames were sprinkled like raindrops, falling all over the shrine. The fires that fell on the roofs and the trees in the courtyard soon ignited the wooden buildings, as well as the garden trees that had dried up in the winter. Even Takeo Imai has a spark on his body.

It's still February, and it's still very cold in Tokyo, and Kanei, who is keeping vigil, is wearing thick cotton clothes. The sticky tinder stuck to the right arm of his cotton coat and burned quietly, and Kanai stroked it with his hand, trying to get rid of it. But who knew that this sticky jelly-like thing was actually stroked by him all at once, and the right arm of the entire cotton coat was smeared. Then the whole right arm burst into flames at once, and the flames rose several feet high in the blink of an eye. Fortunately, Kanai's reaction was quick, and he immediately threw away the cotton clothes, and the flames only burned half of his hair and eyebrows.

The architecture of Yasukuni Shrine is not much different from other shrines, and they are all mainly wooden structures. Once these buildings are burned, it is almost impossible to extinguish them. So the priests, who woke up in a panic, quickly made a decision - the most important thing now was to salvage those important chaye.chaye collections. First of all, the most important thing is the "Seal Book" in the Spirit Seal Book Feng'an Palace.

The so-called "seal book" is a record of the names and information of the deceased for sacrificial purposes. Since the Meiji Restoration, more than one million people have died for the emperor, and their names and documents are all recorded in the list for sacrificial purposes. If all these things are burned, who will the Yasukuni Shrine worship in the future? If these things are burned a little, it will definitely deal a major blow to the morale of the rì army. So, now, the most important thing is to grab these things.

However, the fire developed rapidly, and almost in the blink of an eye, the roof of the Spirit Seal Book Feng'an Hall was already burning. The tongue of fire rose upwards and was tens of meters high. The burning beams crackled and crackled. In the midst of the chaos, Rì himself didn't have time to find gas masks or anything like that, so Kanai and the others just poured buckets of water on them and rushed into the burning hall.

Smoke billowed from the main hall, and Kanei covered his mouth and nose with a wet towel and stumbled towards the place where the seal book was kept. The smoke not only obscured his vision, but also irritated his eyes, and tears continued to pour out of his eyes, which were then dried by the steaming heat. The burned rafters continued to fall from above with flames. A young man who rushed in after Kanai was hit on the head by a falling rafter with flames, and fell into the fire without a sound. The other person who was following him tripped and fell to the ground, dropped the towel covering his mouth and nose, and inhaled several puffs of toxic fumes, so that the person also got up in a violent cough, and then slowly fell down again.

Kanai rushed to the place where the Seal Books were kept, the shelves that held the wooden boxes containing the Seal Books, and the wooden boxes were already burning. At this time, the clothes on Jinjing's body that had been poured with a bucket of water had long since dried up, and even smoked from them. As for the wet towel covering the mouth and nose, it has long since lost its effect. Kanai held his breath and rushed over, picking up a burning wooden box with both hands. The flames on the wooden box immediately set fire to the clothes on his chest. Kanai endured the severe pain, turned around, and turned around with the wooden box, ready to run outside, but just as he turned around, he collided with a guy who stumbled in from behind. The two of them were knocked to the ground together, and the wooden box in Kanei's hand was thrown out and fell to the ground, and the wooden box was immediately shattered, and the seals inside were thrown out, and then quickly burned, almost instantly turning into flying paper ashes.

At the same time, the two people who fell were also loaded with those wooden shelves, which were already burning and could not withstand such an impact, and were immediately shattered, and the boxes rolled down, hitting more shelves and breaking more boxes. In an instant, the flames rose several meters high, almost next to the rooftops that had already exposed the sky.

At this time, more people rushed in, but at this time, the entire roof collapsed with a thud, and everyone was crushed underneath.

……

The fire in Tokyo caused a hurricane of flames. The heated air in the fire rises rapidly, and the surrounding air flows towards the fire at high speed, forming a huge whirlwind. In this whirlwind, the flames rose to a height of several hundred meters. In the center of the fire, the temperature has risen to more than 3,000 degrees, which is comparable to the effect of thermite incendiary bombs.

The rising hot air had even affected the bombing of the follow-up bombers, and under the impact of the strong updraft, the follow-up bombers could not even reduce their altitude, and the huge B-29 bombers were like a piece of paper, pushed by the air current, one flew upwards, higher and higher. Coupled with the high speed of the air flow below, the wind force even exceeded force 12, which caused the jīng degree of the bombs they dropped to be completely unguaranteed. However, at this time, their incendiary bombs did not need to have any jīng degree at all, and even their incendiary bombs had become superfluous, and the fire field itself would continue to devour the nearby area at an alarming speed.

At this time, on a B-29 bomber still hovering high in the sky, Ron and Li May were dumbfounded as they watched the scene below.

"Good fellow, that's a ...... I feel as if we have opened the gates of hell and let hell appear directly on earth. Li Mei, who has always been known for her calmness and ruthlessness, said, "If we are not the victors in this war, tonight alone, Ron, we will all become war criminals." ”

"Yes, we have opened the gates of hell. But we open the gates of hell so that we can stuff back the devils who have smuggled out of hell. Ron said, "We're just Knights of the Apocalypse at the call of the Lord." ”

"Ron, what do you think?" Li Mei looked at Ron with wide eyes, "Well, that's a good idea. It's a bit arrogant, but I like the idea. ”
