Chapter 562: Human Purgatory Tokyo Metropolitan (II)

At this time, Iwamoto Yumi's skin exudes a charming delicate luster, which is the delicate and shiny skin that only teenage girls can have, soaked in sweat, it is even more fascinating, and now several men standing next to Iwamoto Yumi have begun to hand her upside down, although the scorching heat makes them unbearable, but they also enjoy the time very much, it is rare to have this kind of opportunity, such a wonderful girl will let them touch. Because of the heat, they can only live a dry life, at this temperature. Even the slightest strenuous movement can cause them to collapse.

Although these people took advantage of the fire to rob, but Iwamoto Yumi didn't have the strength to be angry, she just powerlessly turned on her, the pungent smoke and the Martian heat wave mixed in it made the people in it can't help but start coughing violently, even those lustful guys temporarily stopped violating Iwamoto Yumi.

"Mom, I'm so hot," the child in the arms of a sharp woman couldn't stand the temperature at first.

"Mom, it's too hot in here, I'm going out." The child broke free from his mother, who was about to collapse, and rushed to the mouth of the bomb shelter, but a wave of heat at the entrance of the cave turned the child into a gray-black charred corpse, and the child's small body was roasted almost instantly.

At this time, the mother, who was lying powerlessly in the bomb shelter, let out a hoarse cry, "Shiro." She ran to report to the other children like crazy, and the people behind tried to hold her, but there was no way, because the strength of the young woman who was now as weak as a woman was amazing, and it was her love for her son that made her infinitely strong. The fire and water are ruthless, but the flames outside will not be touched by her maternal love for her son. They still sunk the mother and her child to a charred corpse.

Yumi Iwamoto's original air-raid shelter has changed from scorching heat to hot weather, the air has become hot, the ground has become hot, and people's bodies have also become hot, and the magic hands that have done strange things on her have disappeared at this time, and the high temperature has made the people here confused, and they dare not go out, the one outside. The bodies of the child and his mother had now turned to ashes, blown by the wind. Blowing in the wind.

Some people can't stand the pain of being slowly tormented in a cave to the point of being scorched. Screaming, "Kill me!" "They rushed outside the bomb shelter and were could. followed in the footsteps of the mother and son.

Yumi Iwamoto also began to moan in pain. This fainting heat is enough to make those who are on fire crazy, but now they don't have a chance. Yumi Iwamoto's delicate skin was already covered with bubbles. This is the reaction of human skin when burned. Dozens of seconds later, the temperature rose here, and there was a dead silence in the bomb shelter. The skin of those men had turned the golden color of the roast, and the clothes they had taken off in the ground had turned into piles of ashes.

Even those who were lucky enough to escape to the open area of the wilderness only escaped for a while. Soon the smoke mixed with poisonous gases blew by the storm, enveloping them. And those in it were quickly smoked, and there was a poisonous gas produced by the burning of the white swarm in this thick smoke, and many people died in this way, and the content of this poisonous gas was limited after all, and they could not poison the people who read the book and said that they were not the same as the body clams, and the people who read it were good to go to the waishi. I don't want to be blown here by the heat, but I let these incubations dehydrate and dry, forming that kind of smoked meat-like object.

Fire runs through the history of human civilization, allowing ancient humans to get rid of the life of drinking blood and evolve higher wisdom. But fire is also the source of all destruction.

In ancient times, fire attacks set a record for the largest number of deaths in a single war, so it became a magic weapon to win more with less in war.

In later generations, the fire in the new CCTV building during the Lantern Festival made us realize that even large cities with complete systems and developed water conservancy facilities may still be helpless in the face of sudden fires. The fireworks bombs can burn through dozens of storey buildings, and many people have repeatedly lamented that the fireworks shells are too powerful and should be used as cannonballs. However, this thing is not even a toy compared to military incendiary bombs.

Having not seen a war for decades, we grossly underestimate the horrific lethality of military weapons, and the only thing we know is from movies and television full of revolutionary optimism. often watching "Little Soldier Zhang Ga", I will think that two quilts with a little soil can prevent the machine gun in the devil's turret. In fact, a large city can be destroyed several times without the need for nuclear weapons, just military arson.

No matter how the times change, the lethality of fire attack has always been undiminished, and human beings themselves have an instinctive awe of fire.

In nature, both humans and animals have a natural fear of fire. In ancient times, most of the fires caused by lightning strikes caused by natural fires could easily burn large areas of jungle, so the creatures of nature had a god-like sense of awe for this kind of fire that fell from the sky. Since ancient times, fire attack is a commonly used means of breaking the enemy in the history of war, and the ancestors are very affectionate about fire attack, especially in the Three Kingdoms era, fire attack almost runs through the history of the struggle for hegemony, the battle of Chibi and the burning of the company camp, are the decisive battles in the Three Kingdoms era.

In the era of cold weapons, fire attack can play a role in defeating the strong with the weak. The ancient means of fire attack were relatively simple, nothing more than the use of animals and plants or minerals, oil, firewood and grass and other flammable materials as warheads, and the means of throwing were nothing more than the use of bows and arrows, clippers, manpower, etc., the most special is the incendiary weapon invented by the Byzantine Empire called "Greek fire", which was widely used in naval warfare. This weapon was similar to today's flamethrowers, spewing a lit, flammable liquid through a pressurized tube to attack enemy forces. In the 8th century, the Byzantine Empire easily crushed the Arab navy with this weapon.

After the end of the era of cold weapons, due to the popularization of machine guns and artillery, the deployment of the army became more and more scattered, and there was already a certain knowledge of fire prevention, so it was more difficult to kill and injure the enemy army in a large area by burning alone, but fire attack was still a commonly used means in warfare. In industrial warfare, artillery, aircraft, rockets, and guided weapons can all be used as vehicles for incendiary warheads. The power of modern fire attack is very terrifying, first of all, the warhead used in modern fire attack is no longer comparable to firewood and grass or animal and vegetable oil in the past, and its combustion temperature can reach more than 3000 degrees Celsius, even if the metal will melt at this high temperature.

Historically, the United States has taken an overly offensive against Tokyo, causing damage second only to the atomic bombing. At that time, about 41 square kilometers of land in Tokyo were burned to the ground: a quarter of the buildings were razed to the ground, of which 18% were industrial, 63% were commercial, and the rest were residential. All 22 industrial targets that were encircled and bombed were burned. More than 267,000 buildings disappeared, 1 million people were left homeless, 90,000 were burned to death on the spot, and 100,000 were seriously injured. According to documents from the time, even those who jumped into the river for refuge could not escape. Because the heat caused by the incendiary bomb had boiled the river water, the difference between jumping into it was only whether it was roasted to death or cooked.

It makes sense that fire attacks are favored in modern warfare, as they are unique in relation to warheads killed by explosives and shrapnel. First of all, fire attacks are more effective at destroying hard targets, and forts and basements can often withstand direct cannon fire when fortified, but if you attack with a flamethrower, the flames can spread through the underground passages, enough to kill the soldiers stationed inside. If an incendiary bomb such as napalm is used, the heat generated is enough to kill and injure people inside, and even detonate buildings.

In short, modern fire attacks are no longer as simple as burning, but are weapons of war with multiple lethal effects. Throwing two out at random can kill and injure most of the people in a neighborhood. In addition to being lethal, modern incendiary weapons are characterized by their cruelty. Napalm is a viscous incendiary that burns until it hits the body, and water does not extinguish it. If you are hit by this weapon on the battlefield, you must immediately take off the clothes or equipment that have already begun to burn, and if you get the naked part of it, you must use a knife to dig out or cut off the limbs that have already begun to burn, in short, it is more troublesome than a poisonous snake bite. Compared with napalm and white phosphorus, it is pediatric again. In addition to the power of napalm to burn bones, white phosphorus bombs also have the characteristic of burning when they see air. There have been cases of white phosphorus remaining in the body of the wounded that was isolated by hot meat, and as a result, it was exposed during surgery and killed medical staff. In addition to combustion, phosphorus itself is also extremely toxic, so the problem of detoxification must be considered when treating the wounded who have been killed by phosphorus bombs, if the treatment is not timely, it is likely to cause complications such as internal bleeding or liver necrosis.

In the original history, the United States dropped 2,000 tons of incendiary bombs on Tokyo, which is already a very terrible number. But compared to 13,000 tons of incendiary bombs, a mere 2,000 tons of incendiary bombs is nothing at all. When the number reaches a certain height, its destructive power increases geometrically.

And these 13,000 tons of incendiary bombs include cloud burst bombs, napalm bombs and white phosphorus incendiary bombs, which are the big killers in the Zhonghua No. 2 arsenal. Coupled with the weather controller used for the first time, Tokyo burns even more violently, let alone extinguishing the flames, even people can't even run.

However, no matter how big the fire is, there will be survivors, and compared to the bomb shelters of civilians, the bunker under the Tokyo Imperial Palace is cool at this time. A large number of Japanese government officials had already gathered inside, and many officials of the Allied countries in Japan had also come here for the first time. Although their lives have been saved, many of them have some scars on their bodies.

Compared to the millions of civilians in Tokyo, they are already extremely lucky. The palace above has been completely destroyed, the Empire State Building is finished, and the opera house and the shopping street have been completely engulfed in flames.

The stump they were able to leave behind had already been earned.

At this time, not only Tokyo, but all the major cities of the Japanese archipelago were within the range of Chinese bombers, and such attacks would continue for three consecutive days. (To be continued......)
