Although at the moment Luang Phibun? Song Kan and the others were hiding in an underground shelter dozens of meters underground, but even so, they could still feel a faint vibration coming from the ground. And in the refuge, Luang Phibun? Song Kan hugged his head and fell on his knees, trembling as he didn't dare to move.

As the Field Marshal of Thailand, Luang Phibun? Song Kan has also faced death many times, but at this moment, this feeling of the sky falling apart still makes Luang Phibun? Song Kanda was terrified from the bottom of his heart.

In these days, traitors are always more hated, so earlier than Japan, Thailand was the first to receive China's declaration of war. And this declaration of war was handed to Luang Phibun an hour before the bombing? Ode to this.

In addition, the ambassador to Thailand who delivered the declaration of war was also a smart man, and although it was a matter of secrecy, the Beijing government did not tell him what method the defense forces would use to strike at Thailand. However, according to the Beijing government's suggestion that "the sooner you leave Bangkok, the better", the ambassador to Thailand just handed the credentials to Luang Phibun? Song Kan, who had already left Bangkok directly by car―――――― fortunately, there were very few cars in Bangkok at this time, so he didn't encounter a traffic jam...

Not to mention how hurriedly the ambassador to Thailand fled, Luang Phibun here? Song Kham was not very surprised when he received the declaration of war, after all, after Thailand decided to join the Axis powers, it would be strange if China did not react at all.

Really make Luang Phibun? The question of wonder is where China's blow will come from.

The possibility of a possible Chinese air force attack on Bangkok is not unguessed, but at present, it is that the people who are in charge of the situation in Thailand are middle-aged and elderly, and those who have guessed this are all younger junior officers. There is no way to reflect my own opinion to it.

So after receiving the declaration of war, Luang Phibun? The main direction of speculation by Song Kan and other high-level leaders is still land and sea...

As for the air? Luang Phibun? Song Khan and the others didn't care much, after all, Luang Phibun, who didn't understand the power of large-scale bombing? Song Kan and others really don't understand how powerful the bomber group is...

It is for this reason that when half an hour later. When a huge group of bombers flew over Bangkok, Luang Phibun? Song Khan and a group of government officials could only escort them to the underground shelter of the Prime Minister's Office in the panic of the guards.

Speaking of which, the shelter was built with the help of the Chinese government, and the reason for doing so was precisely because of the fear that Bangkok might be bombed by an enemy country in the future―――――― which of course was conceived by Japan. But now...

It can only be said that the world is really unpredictable...

"Your Excellency, what should I do now?"

After the vibration from the walls of the shelter gradually subsided, the pale-faced Minister of Defense hurriedly walked to Luang Phibun? Song Kan asked.

At this moment, the defense minister also somewhat regrets why he supported Luang Phibun in the first place. Praise it.

"Even if the Axis powers composed of Germany and Japan are really not weaker than China, but far from quenching the thirst of the near, if the Chinese want to clean us up, can't they do it?" When the time comes, the Germans and the Japanese will avenge us. I'm afraid it doesn't have much to do with us..."

Luang Phibun? Of course, Song Khan did not understand the thoughts of the defense minister on his side, and after making sure that the bombing was over, Luang Phibun? Song Kan tried to make a calm appearance.

"Anyway, let's go up there and take a look first..."

So, Luang Phibun? Song Kan stood up with his chair on his feet. However, maybe he was scared by the bombing just now, Luang Phibun? Song Kan actually stumbled and almost fell to the ground.

Fortunately, the guards on the side and the Minister of Defense took the lead in supporting Luang Phibun? Song Kan, otherwise I'm afraid Luang Phibun? Song Kan is good and the hard cement floor is intimate once. "Alright, let's go!! ”

The old face is red, Luang Phibun? Song Kan no longer pretended to be calm, so after breaking free from the support of the guards. Luang Phibun? Song Kan walked in the direction of the exit.

However, just as we were about to reach the exit, an accident happened...

"I'm sorry, Mr. Prime Minister..."

In Luang Phibun? Song Kan and his party were about to walk to the exit. One of the guards walked up briskly.

"It seems that the exit was blocked by wreckage due to the bombing just now, so I'm afraid we won't be able to get out for the time being..."

"What?"

Luang Phibun? Song Kan was stunned.

"How long will it take?"

"We don't know about this, but just now by phone, people outside are cleaning up the wreckage, I believe it won't be long..."

Hearing the guards say that, Luang Phibun? Song Kan's face was somewhat gloomy.

"These damn Chinese. When it was first built, it was said that it could withstand what level of bombardment, and the exit was specially designed. It's not at all like worrying about the safety of the exit, what's going on now!! ”

In Luang Phibun? When Song Kan was still muttering there, the guard next to him was also embarrassed.

No way, indeed, the Chinese construction personnel who helped design and build the shelter did guarantee that the shelter could withstand what level of air raids, and the exit was also specially designed, so there was no need to worry, but...

There are no absolutes in Luang Phibun? After Song Kham took office, many of the layout of the Prime Minister's Office have changed, as if the original layout at the exit should be very simple, but Luang Phibun? Songkan has made a lot of so-called Thai decorations there...

Now that the bombing has passed, these decorations have become the main force in the wreckage...

Just now the guard has been on the phone with the outside.,The exit passage is no problem at all.,It's these wrecks that block the exit.,And because these wrecks are a little special.,So it's very troublesome to clean up...

"Anyway, please wait a moment..."

Hearing the words of the guards, Luang Phibun? Song Kan also knew that he didn't have the power of those supernatural people in Chinese comics, and he couldn't open the blocked exit with one punch, so he had to walk back indignantly.

And outside the underground shelter, the Thai officers and soldiers who had just recovered from the air raid were still busy clearing the wreckage piled up at the exit of the passage...

When Luang Phibun? When Song Kan and the others came out of the dim and cramped shelter, it had been almost two hours since the air raid.

When Luang Phibun? When Songkan came out of the shelter, he couldn't believe his eyes. Because his original presidential palace, which was not as gorgeous as the presidential palace of Yan Guang, has become a mess because of the bombing just now.

Especially around the exit, deep burying craters are everywhere.

Standing on a tall wreckage, almost all of Bangkok was reduced to ruins, black smoke and red fire. It has almost become the background color of the city, and the cries for help, shouts and wails have become the background music of Bangkok...

"How so!"

Luang Phibun? Song Khan couldn't believe his eyes, how could Bangkok, which he was once so proud and proud of, become like this.

And yet in Luang Phibun? When Song Kan was still there in disbelief, the vice prime minister on the side had already walked over with a wry smile.

"The Chinese's air force is even more powerful than expected. Prime Minister, you may not have seen it when you went fast, the Chinese bomber group is simply overwhelming..."

"And how big are our losses..."

"I don't know..."

The deputy prime minister shook his head with a wry smile.

"At present, the government is still counting, but I'm afraid it won't be small, and most importantly..."

Speaking of this, the bitterness on the face of the deputy prime minister became even stronger. "And most importantly, it's just the aftermath, it's the industrial areas around Bangkok that really hit the ground running." According to the information just reported, it seems that the nearby industrial area is about to be razed to the ground by the Chinese..."

It should be said that the original mission target of the bomber group was the industrial area near Bangkok, and the urban area of Bangkok was just a passing target.

In fact, Yan Guang has already shown mercy to his subordinates, at least he hasn't let the air force people use incendiary bombs or anything, otherwise the casualties in Bangkok will be even worse. Considering that there are more wooden buildings in Bangkok. And the weather is also relatively hot, and it is not impossible for the entire city to be burned to ashes.

But even so, the loss of Bangkok is large enough, after all, this time the Air Force has sent more than 1,000 H-3 bombers with the same performance as the B-17 to carry out the bombing mission, and even if the incendiary bombs are not used, the fire caused by the explosion of the bomb is still difficult to extinguish...

――――――――――――――――――――

Look at the city in front of you that is almost like the ruins. Walking down the streets littered with wreckage, Luang Phibun? Song Kan was thinking about how to deal with this matter, after all, Thailand's loss this time was too great...

And most importantly. So far, the people of Thailand or Bangkok do not know that in fact, China has declared war on Thailand―――――― in fact, even if more than two hours have passed, but the people of Bangkok, who are still fighting the fire, may not have figured out where those bombers in the sky came from, let alone why they attacked themselves.

Of course, they do not understand these bombers even more. In fact, it is from China, once its closest ally.

In fact, Luang Phibun? Song Kan didn't know what to say, after all, he couldn't say it to the people because of interests. He betrayed China and defected to the Axis powers, so he attracted China's revenge, right?

Although many people applauded when they first joined the Axis and stood in the same camp as Germany and Japan, it is difficult to say what kind of face these people will be after paying such a big price.

"Anyway, let's boost our morale first..."

Looking at the apocalyptic ordinary people on the streets, Luang Phibun? Song Kan thought after sighing.

"Since the Chinese attacked with bombers this time, how many Chinese bombers did we shoot?"

Usually, there are only two ways to boost morale after an attack.

Either they retaliated directly after being beaten, or they claimed after the attack how many enemy planes they had shot down...

The former is probably like the "Doolittle Air Raid", although the "Doolittle Air Raid" did not seriously bring much damage to Japan, and in history only 50 people were killed, 252 were injured, and 90 buildings were damaged or collapsed.

However, as a symbolic mission, the success of the air raid on Tokyo was a shot in the arm for the retreating US military.

Merely...

Although such retaliation is the best way, and even if the results are small, they can be exaggerated in the newspapers countless times, just like Britain and Germany in the European battlefield. But Thailand's strength is still too weak after all. If you go by land, I am afraid that before you get out of the Indochina Peninsula, you will be stopped by Laos, as for air strikes like the Chinese...

Although the Thai Air Force also has a certain number of bombers, it is a pity that there are no long-range bombers like the H-3 or H-40, and some are just ordinary dive bombers―――――― because the Chinese government does not think it is necessary. So it was not provided to Thailand at the beginning, and the Thais did not seem to think that there was a need for such a bomber, so they did not propose it in the first place.

(During Operation Doolittle, the damage caused by air raids to Japan was as follows: 50 people killed, 252 wounded, and 90 buildings damaged or collapsed.) The bombed companies included the Japan Diesel Engine Manufacturing Company, the Daiichi Iron and Steel Plant, the Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Corporation, the Ministry of Communications Substation, the National Textile Garment Company, the Yokohama Manufacturing Company warehouse, the Nagoya Aircraft Factory, one military factory, one naval laboratory, one airport, one temporary arms supply station, nine power buildings, six large oil tanks, one garment factory, one food storage warehouse, one gas company, two other companies, the Nagoya No. 2 Temporary Military Hospital, and six elementary and junior high schools. It can only be said that the damage caused to Japan by this air raid is really small. …,

Doolittle, the executor of the operation, after being rescued by a farmer in a parachute jump in China. He believed that if all the planes were destroyed and the operation failed, he would be court-martialed. However, when he arrived in Chongqing at the end of April, he learned that because the operation had succeeded in boosting the morale of the American people, he was awarded the Medal of Honor, the highest honor in the United States, by President Roosevelt, and was awarded the rank of brigadier general. In retaliation, Japan launched about 9,000 balloon bombs at the United States in November 1944.

It can be said that the losses caused by this air raid to Japan were very small, and could not even be proportional to the loss of bombers. However, his impact was enormous, after all, it was the first time that the Japanese mainland had been attacked... ）

Because of the limitation of strength, this idea can only be abandoned, and then the only way left is the second way, that is, to declare how many enemy planes you shoot down to offend ...

In the historical Battle of Britain. Although the reality was that the British were beaten by the Germans on their beds, the British still claimed that it was a victory, well, it should be said that this statement was correct.

And now, Luang Phibun? That's the idea that Song Kan hits, but it's a pity...

"This..."

Hear Luang Phibun? Words of Songkan. The commander of the garrison near Bangkok had an embarrassed expression on his face.

“……… It's a pity, but we didn't shoot down a single enemy plane during the air strikes..."

When I say that. The garrison commander didn't even dare to look up at Luang Phibun? Songkan's face.

However, hearing the words of the commander, Luang Phibun? Song Kan was even more surprised than before.

"How is this possible, is it true that the people of the air defense forces eat dry food?"

Although Luang Phibun? Sokhan could not be compared to leaders like Churchill, Roosevelt, Hitler, or Stalin, but as prime minister of the Thai government and field marshal (who was also the self-proclaimed marshal of the army, navy, and air force), he knew a lot about Bangkok's defense capabilities, or at least he remembered how many anti-aircraft guns were deployed around Bangkok―――――― although it was only an approximate number.

The commander, however, argued.

"There's no way around it. Although a large number of anti-aircraft guns were deployed throughout Bangkok, the vast majority of them were only 75mm caliber anti-aircraft guns. Although the performance is not bad, the bomber with a high altitude and Chinese distance is one or two thousand meters behind, and it will not hurt Chinese cents at all......... Our air defense forces, when the enemy is attacking, are simply wasting shells in the sky ...

Speaking of this, the commander also looked painful, after all, in the bombardment of the Chinese, the behavior of the Thai air defense forces was more like a desperate return fire that could never touch the opponent ...

And because after the bombing of the industrial areas around Bangkok, the bombers' ammunition was still relatively rich, and this behavior of the air defense forces instead attracted the bomber group, and a good friend of the commander was in command of the anti-aircraft artillery unit, which was hit by a 250-kilogram aerial bomb, and in the end it was blown up and not even a little limb wreckage could be found...

But this is also normal, after all, Thailand only exists as China's little brother, although Thailand is China's closest and only one at this stage. As a result, China has taken more care of Thailand, but in the plan of the national government, Thailand is just a nail used to contain Japan's presence on the Indochina Peninsula.

Therefore, it is enough for the national government to provide Thailand with 75mm caliber anti-aircraft guns. After all, Thailand's imaginary and potential enemy is only Japan. Japan, on the other hand, does not have an air force, in other words, Japan only has army aviation and naval aviation, and Japan does not have high-performance bombers like the H-3 or H-40, in other words, in the eyes of the Communist government, it is enough to provide Thailand with 75mm anti-aircraft guns. ...Of course. This is not to say that Japan has not thought about equipping itself with high-performance bombers.

In 1942, Nakajima Chihisa, the founder of Nakajima Aircraft, was worried about the gradual mobilization of the war industry by the United States and the disparity between the national strength of Japan and the United States, and also knew that the American B-29 Super Fortress bomber was under development. Weaken its industrial capacity and destroy air bases as much as possible. However, the military did not take his advice, but Nakajima continued to develop his plan.

At the end of January 1943, the bomber of Project Z set its basic performance requirements: a range of no less than 16,000 kilometers, a bomb load of more than 20 tons, the ability to fly at an altitude of 10,000 meters, and thick armor. In April 1943, Nakajima met with chief technicians Koyama and Minoru Ota, chief technicians Koo Naito, and Ryoichi Nakagawa at the Nakajima Aircraft Company's "Nakajima Club" in Ota City, Gunma Prefecture. He also asked his personnel to stay there and discuss and design his heavy bombers day and night. Later, it was calculated that the required airframe was 45 meters long, with a wingspan of 65 meters, a main wing area of 350 square meters, and a maximum speed of 680 kilometers. With a full weight of 160 tons and a range of 16,000 kilometers under a 20-ton bomb load, the bombing route was from the west coast of France in the German-occupied zone to the eastern United States to bomb factories and then return to Europe to replenish bombs. Or take off from the Kuril Islands to bomb the west coast of the United States.

I have to say that although the Japanese military is a little whimsical in peacetime, the Japanese military is still very wise at this time, because the performance of this bomber is too high, so high that it is impossible to build it ...

In fact, the bomber, named Fugaku, was still in the planning stage until the end of the war. Not a single prototype was made. Of course, if completed, it will be a much larger bomber than the American B-29, and it will also be the largest military aircraft ever designed by Japan.

But know that even the American B-36 (similar to Tomioka. All were six-engine), which also made its first flight in 1946 and did not officially enter service until 1949. The industrial strength of the United States is many times stronger than that of Japan...

In addition, in fact, in the process of air raids, the Air Force also lost some aircraft, but basically it was caused by its own failure, and finally insisted on flying back to the Kunming base, after all, the H-3 has 4 engines, and the probability of 4 engines breaking at the same time is very small.

The escort fighters fell a lot on the way, but the pilots also parachuted safely, which can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune...

――――――――――――――――――――

Detailed statistics are hard to come by, after all, the Thai government was not so strong in its execution during this period, and Bangkok was also a relatively chaotic city.

But even so, after a few days of rough counting, a report was placed in Luang Phibun? In front of Songkan.

Nearly 50,000 people died, more than 100,000 were left homeless, and the industrial areas around Bangkok were almost razed to the ground...

You must know that as the main area of China's aid to Thailand, Bangkok is home to almost one-third of Thailand's industrial strength, and it is also the most critical one-third. Now the loss of this third is not enough to paralyze Thailand, but it can be called a heavy blow...

Looking at the report in front of him, Luang Phibun? For the first time, Songkan felt a feeling of regret...

However, this is not the first blow, as the punishment of the betrayer is still on the way. In Luang Phibun? Not long after Song Kham received the report, he received a telegram from the border guards, showing that a large number of Laotian, Cambodian, and Vietnamese troops were gathering on the border where Thailand met with Laos and Cambodia.

Although the troops of these three countries were actually formed by guerrillas and resistance groups during the French Indochina period, and the Thai troops that had been trained by the National Defense Forces seemed to be just a rabble, even if they were...

Hundreds of thousands of well-armed rabble, but also the Thai people feel the pressure...

Not to mention the fact that behind them, there are hundreds of thousands of well-armed and ready Wehrmacht troops ...

――――――――――――――――――――

In other words, Steel 3 seems to be out of the 4.2 version, well, that is, the glory moment...

The principal in it is directly bordering Japan.,But Japan seems to have learned smart.,I'm here in August.,Still haven't been able to trigger 77.,It seems that Japan has also learned to watch the comparison of strength.,Instead of going to war in July like the original for the motherland...

It turned out that for the sake of the motherland, I really hit the Ural Mountains...

But you can't get by pushing, the logistics system of Steel 3 and Steel 2 is different, even if the logistics are level 10 when pushed to the Urals, the same is still not powerful...
