With a bang, the door to the base camp conference room was slammed open.

In the conference room, all the civil and military officials of the Japanese Empire were sitting in their respective seats, all of them red-faced, as if they had just had a big quarrel. On one side of the conference table, there were folders and fragments of teacups scattered all over the place. Prime Minister Fumitsu Konoe looked at everyone with a grim face, motionless. ，

The one who knocked on the door and came in turned out to be Lieutenant General Toshiro Obata Toshiro, the first director of the Army General Staff Headquarters. During this time, the Japanese Ministry of War and the Army General Staff Headquarters in Miyakesaka, which had been located in downtown Tokyo, were also relocated to the outskirts of Tokyo due to the bombing, and they happened to be adjacent to the "new official residence" of the Prime Minister, both in an abandoned aviation research institute. Therefore, the news received by the General Staff Headquarters can be sent to the Prime Minister as soon as possible. However, it was the first time that a high-ranking general of the level of Lieutenant General Toshiro Obata personally ran errands to deliver the letter.

Everyone looked up together, and they saw Obata standing there with a pale face, clutching a telegram tightly in his hand, and the whole person seemed to be trembling slightly, and his face was full of fear, as if he had just seen a ghost.

Prince Zaihito and Tetsuyama Nagata glanced at each other, and a sense of foreboding surged in their hearts at the same time. Before coming to the meeting this morning, the officer in charge of communications at the base camp reported to the two of them that communication with Pyongyang, Wonsan, and Busan had been cut off at the same time! At that time, the two of them sensed that the situation was not right, so they ordered Lieutenant General Toshiro Obata who was in charge of staying in the operational command center to keep a close eye on the situation on the North Korean side and report anything to the DPRK as soon as they discovered something. However, no one thought that Lieutenant General Toshiro Kobata, who was born in a famous family and had a leisurely and elegant bearing, would actually appear in front of them with this appearance, could it be that the naivety of the North Korean side has collapsed!

"Obata-kun. What happened? Is it the ...... of the Korean army" Prince Zairen of Kanin Palace did not say any more, because he really couldn't think of something terrible that had happened to scare Toshiro Obata like this!

"Your Excellency! Something happened to the North Korean army! Something is wrong! It's all over...... It's all over! The Great Japanese Empire is over! The people of China turned Pyongyang, Wonsan, and Busan into an Abi hell! "Toshiro Obata ...... Probably insane? The words spoken are a bit incoherent. The expression on his face was also a little weird.

"What the hell is going on?" Nagata Tetsuyama interrupted Obata's gibberish with some impatience: "What did Sugiyama Moto's telegram say?" ”

Obata shook his head violently and shouted, "It's not a telegram from Admiral Sugiyama, Admiral Sugiyama has become a god!" ”

Hearing this news, Nagata and Xianyuan Palace breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, it should be a big deal, isn't it that Sugiyama Yuan is dead! What do you say about the ...... of hell What is the meaning?

"So who's in command now? Ishihara or Matsui Ishine? Nagata Tetsuyama asked again.

"Your Excellency Ishihara-kun and Admiral Matsui are also ...... He has become a god! ”

"What!?" There was a sigh in the conference room, the commander of the North Korean Army is dead, the chief of staff is dead, and even the commander of the 15th Army, Matsui Ishigen, is dead! What the hell is going on? Could it be that the special forces of China raided the headquarters of the North Korean army?

Facing everyone's puzzled gazes, Toshiro Obata took a deep breath. Gritting his teeth, he said loudly: "What I just received is a telegram from the Mecha Army Headquarters...... It's 6:20 this morning. A terrifying explosion suddenly occurred in Pyongyang! The entire city was wiped out in an instant! All buildings were destroyed, and all people and animals exposed to the surface were reduced to ashes! Everything was wiped out in the ten square kilometers centered on the command of the North Korean army!

The headquarters of the DPRK Army, as well as the buildings where the headquarters of the 15th, 22nd, and 19th armies were located, were completely destroyed by the explosion, and only the headquarters of the mecha army, which was far away from the city, was spared. Rescue teams reported finding only a small number of survivors in the epicenter of the explosion, all of whom were seriously injured. is dying, and there are no generals Sugiyama Moto, General Matsui Ishine, Lieutenant General Ishihara Waner, Major General Oshirodo Miji, etc., it is estimated that they have all become gods! The casualties of the entire Pyongyang cluster of the North Korean army are at least more than 100,000 people! Civilian casualties are no less than tens of thousands! And now Pyongyang does not have enough medicines, medical personnel, and does not know how to help those who were burned by the explosion, and it is estimated that the death toll will increase further! Communications in Busan and Wonsan have not yet been restored, and it is estimated that the situation is similar! ”

At this moment, all the Japanese civil and military forces in the conference room jumped up, and Prime Minister Fumiko Konoe was already speechless in shock. The old prince of the Xianyuan Palace trembled even more, pointing to the telegram in Obata's hand. It means to quickly present the telegram to him. Nagata Tetsuyama simply rushed to Obata in a few steps, grabbed the telegram, read it at a glance, and then collapsed to the ground with a pop, and only muttered: "Uranium bomb!" This is a uranium bomb! Chinese used uranium bombs in North Korea...... Finished. The Korean army is over, and now the Great Japanese Empire is really over! ”

……

Pyongyang, where the headquarters of the North Korean military is located, is now a scene of 18 layers of hell. The entire city has been reduced to rubble...... It was a scene of billowing smoke, a pungent smell everywhere, and blue-green flames drifting around. In the central area of the atomic bombing, it was as if everything had turned into powder, and the original tall and majestic building of the headquarters of the DPRK Army had been completely razed as if it had never existed in this world!

A little further away from the explosion, the bodies of Japanese soldiers and Japanese civilians were piled up, and in a small ditch, all the dead bodies with swollen bellies floating on the surface of the river. It is possible that he tried to escape by jumping into the fire at the time of the explosion. In addition to the ruins of the streets, there were dead bodies, some of them still maintained their walking posture intact, as if they were frozen by death, others were lying on all fours, as if they had fallen from a high altitude and died, some were burned to a piece of charcoal while standing, and some were still struggling to crawl, but all the clothes on their bodies were burned, the exposed skin was either charred or red with blood, and the hair on their heads was also burned, all of them were miserable.

A little farther away, there was the rear assembly area of the Japanese army, and the situation here was not much better, all the warehouses were burning. Cannons, wagons, trucks, and so on, all fell to the ground. On both sides of the road, there were rows of wounded who had committed suicide because of the unbearable pain caused by the radiation, and of course there were more Japanese officers and soldiers and civilians who were groaning in pain!

On top of one of the ruins, there are thousands of blind men with desperate expressions, blinded by the flash of a nuclear explosion, most of them with burns or falls, and a Japanese female soldier dressed in nurse's white clothes is handing out a pile of grenades one by one...... About five to eight blind people get one! The woman who gave out the grenade had already cried into tears, and kept saying, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry...... while the blind Japanese who got the grenade were all relieved, bent down slightly, and kept thanking them, maybe for them. Death was a relief.

About 7 or 8 kilometers from the epicenter of the explosion. There don't seem to be many seriously wounded here. The reason why I say "seemingly" is because many people do not realize that the nuclear radiation after the atomic bomb has caused them great damage, and the current level of medical care is simply not curable! Still, there are countless Japanese officers and soldiers who are already in a state of mental breakdown, most of whom have witnessed the horrors of the nuclear explosions and the failures that North Korea has suffered since the beginning of the war. These people have realized that the defeat of Japan is inevitable! It is difficult for them to accept this tragic reality, and they have lost the courage to commit suicide or even fight...... The Chinese killed hundreds of thousands of people in a matter of seconds! How could they have overcome such a ferocious enemy! These people just sat blankly in the trenches, their faces full of fear and despair......

The Japanese Mecha Corps Headquarters is also in this area. Of course, there are no more "mechas" left in the current mecha army, and all combat vehicles and armored vehicles were lost in the Battle of Yunshan.

Not only that, but they also received the infamy of being sinners of the Great Japanese Empire! It cost countless citizens their hard-earned money to create a mechanized army, but it was crushed by a branch of Panzergrenadiers and an armored division! After retreating to Pyongyang, everyone looked at these former "imperial pride" with contempt, and they themselves were ashamed. I can't wait to commit suicide by seppuku! Of course, such stupid things are not allowed to happen, so under the repeated requests of Yoshida Pi, Hoshino Toshimoto and others, the 20,000 or 30,000 remnants of this "mecha army" were all deployed to the front line to serve as cannon fodder. Who knew that it was a blessing in disguise and escaped the killing of the atomic bomb!

Inside the mecha command, a group of blood-red officers were already crowded, their uniforms shattered. His face was also covered with burns, and it seemed that he had escaped death from the nuclear explosion in the morning. These people were all dug out of the ruins by the rescue team sent by the Mecha Force Command, and they were shouting something around Yoshida.

"What the hell is going on? Could it be that Amaterasu abandoned her people and sent down heavenly damnation? ”

"The empire is over, the empire is over! The empire has been abandoned by the gods, and in the future, it can only become a slave of the people of China! ”

"No, this is not a curse, this is the secret weapon of the Chinese people, it must be some kind of secret weapon with incredible power!"

"How can there be such a weapon! If the people of China had such a terrible weapon...... What are we going to do? How will this war be fought! ”

"It's over, it's all over...... Killed 100,000 people at once, and these people are all demons! How can we fight the demons! ”

In the midst of the shouting, the officers actually howled and cried one by one. No one could believe how there could be such a murderous weapon in this world! And this weapon is still in the hands of the enemies of the Japanese Empire! No matter how much they fight, there is no way for them to defeat this terrible secret weapon! Although they had been beaten by the Chinese's mechanized troops and air force before, the attacks of the sea of fire and bullet rain were always within the conceivable range, and they could still withstand one or two with the spirit of bushido and flesh and blood, but this morning's explosion that seemed to destroy the world was simply beyond the limit they could imagine!

The commander of the mecha army, Yoshida Tsuki, sat there steadily, unable to say a word. When the nuclear explosion occurred, he was having breakfast in the bunker, only to feel that the mountain shook for a while, and almost collapsed the civil fortifications where he was located! At that time, I thought it was a Chinese bomber that dropped a bomb weighing several tons and landed nearby. Who knew it would be like this...... And it seems that Pyongyang is not the only one that has been destroyed by this secret weapon! The Japanese troops in Busan and Wonsan have not yet been contacted, and they have not been hit by such a super bomb! If this is the case, then the North Korean army will be completely finished......

"Your Excellency! Get in touch with Busan! At this time, the chief of staff of the First Army, Masafuku Terada, sounded with a crying voice. The inside of the originally noisy war room suddenly fell silent. Terada cried, "Busan was also attacked in the same way!" The entire city was wiped out, and the losses of the imperial army exceeded 100,000. The headquarters of the 20th Army was razed to the ground ......"

The scene seemed to freeze all of a sudden, and all of a sudden, a huge cry broke out, and everyone was crying bitterly, and Masafuku Terada sat down on the ground with his buttocks, slammed his fist on the ground, and cried as if he had become a tearful person.

……

"Your Majesty, Pyongyang, Busan, and Wonsan have all been contacted, and it is now certain that the brutal Chinese imperialism has destroyed these three cities with a uranium bomb of unimaginable power...... The hundreds of thousands of elites of the Imperial Army also ...... And then ......" said that. Admiral Kantaro Suzuki, who served as a military senator, could no longer cry. The pale hair trembled.

The Imperial Palace of New Tokyo (Sydney) is also holding a pre-imperial meeting, and the atmosphere is also extremely depressing, everyone is secretly crying with their heads down, even the most stubborn King Asakanomiya is sighing while shedding tears.

Hirohito was so shocked that he couldn't speak, so he had to ask a question from the Minister of the Interior on the side, Yukiyo Kido, "Suzuki-kun." The unimaginably powerful uranium bomb you are talking about...... Is the empire capable of manufacturing? I seem to have heard that the Empire has a similar secret weapons development project? ”

Kantaro Suzuki was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it carefully, he remembered that the army seemed to have some kind of benevolent plan. He glanced at King Yuhiko of the Asaka Palace, who was still in tears, and said in a low voice: "Under the Asaka Palace, has the army ever had a plan to develop uranium bombs?" ”

"The Army does have such a plan!" Answering this question before Asakanomiya was Lieutenant General Takeo Yasuda, head of the technical department of the Army Aviation Headquarters, who had just arrived in New Tokyo. Yasuda took two steps forward and bowed to Hirohito, who was stunned on the throne: "There is a secret agency for the development of uranium bombs under the Army Aviation Technology Headquarters presided over by the minister. ”

"Oh! How's it going? When will a uranium bomb be made! Is it okay for three months? Emperor Hirohito seemed to be awakened from his dream, stood up from his throne, took two steps forward and walked in front of Yasuda Takeo, and said eagerly: "As long as the empire can have uranium bombs." The current unfavorable situation can be completely reversed, by the way, has the organization that developed uranium bombs now moved out of Japan? ”

"Your Majesty, the institution that researched uranium bombs has moved to New Japan, and all equipment and raw materials have also moved to New Japan." Yasuda looked at Hirohito, whose eyes were shining, swallowed his saliva and continued: "However, there is no equipment here in New Japan that can be used to refine highly enriched uranium-235. There was also not enough electricity to power the refinery, so ......"

When Hirohito heard this, the light in his eyes quickly dimmed, and he sighed softly: "I know, the empire is not capable of making uranium bombs, so it can only watch the war be lost!" ”

As soon as these words came out, all the generals in this hall wearing army uniforms turned their eyes on Yasuda as if they were sharp swords, and Yasuda Takeo suddenly felt a chill down his spine! He bit it, shook his head and said, "No, Your Majesty, now the Empire is capable of overcoming all uranium bomb research problems except for the highly enriched uranium-235...... And Germany, an ally of the Reich, once agreed to supply the Reich with 50 kg of weapons-grade uranium-235! According to Professor Yoshio Nishina's calculations, these uranium-235 are enough to assemble three uranium bombs! ”

Three uranium bombs! There was a sound of inhalation in the hall, if the Japanese Empire could have three uranium bombs, would China dare to continue fighting? Emperor Hirohito's face also changed sharply, and at this moment he seemed to see hope again, and hurriedly asked, "When will the enriched uranium of the Germans arrive?" Can it be shipped to New Japan in 3 months? ”

Yasuda Takeo looked helpless and refused to answer. Hirohito was stunned for a moment, and then realized that the other party was neither the prime minister nor the foreign minister, and he really did not know how the negotiations with Germany were going. He retreated to the throne and said to the Minister of the Interior, Kido, with a solemn face: "Kido-secretary, please send a telegram to Tokyo immediately, and ask the cabinet to negotiate with Germany as soon as possible to obtain enough enriched uranium to make uranium bombs!" ”

Hearing this holy decree, Kido Yukiichi also smiled bitterly in his heart, this god really takes himself seriously! At present, Germany and the United States are making real fire on the west coast of America, and if Hitler really had 50 kilograms of enriched uranium, he would not give it to Japan, but would use it to bomb the United States!

However, he still had to accept Hirohito's will, and just as he was bowing to the emperor, a rush of footsteps suddenly came in from outside, although the door of the hall was pushed open, and it was the new chief of staff of the new Japanese Front, Lieutenant General Shigeru Sawada, who entered.

"Your Majesty, the commander of the Second Army, General Gu Shoufu, sent an urgent telegram, and the defense line of the Second Army was suddenly bombarded by the fierce shelling of the Chinese Army!"
