Chapter 411: Annihilation of the Japanese Army (9): Fighting Poison with Poison
The chapter names of the first two chapters are a bit problematic.,This chapter is a normal name is a serial number.,Go back and find the editor to modify it.。
……………………………………………… At the command to drop the bombs, one after another poison gas bombs fell from the sky like dumplings and were thrown towards the predetermined poison gas isolation area.
These gas bombs are very different from real bombs, they are shaped more like a ceramic jar, which contains a poison gas that also lasts for a long time, is more poisonous and heavier than air, but is more difficult to volatilize.
This poison gas was originally developed for the purpose of one day being used to create a strategic obstacle on a large scale, after all, so far, the offensive of the Wehrmacht has been extremely fierce, and it is rare to use poison gas bombs to attack fortifications, and it has air superiority and large-scale mechanized superiority, and its firepower is much more ferocious than that of the enemy.
With the emergence of endless means of warfare and the entry into service of advanced equipment, the Wehrmacht already has more than enough means to destroy the enemy.
Poison gas bombs are good, and if a large-scale poison gas bomb is dropped, the enemy's positions will be destroyed one regiment and one division, but after all, China cannot become a demon in the hearts of the people of the whole world, and it is necessary to pay due attention to the impact; after all, it is necessary to declare to them the majesty of the Chinese empire in the future, and if they want to rule them, if they go too far, it will not be conducive to the strategic vision of the future.
All kinds of bombers are like chickens that lay eggs continuously, spit out poison gas bombs, pull a long string to the ground, and after a while, those poison gas bombs have fallen to the ground and exploded, a cloud of fog-like poison gas began to spread, this new type of mixed poison gas not only has a very strong lethality, even the gas mask can not be stopped, because it can kill life through the skin, and the efficiency is very high, which is what it is frightening.
In contrast to gas bombs fired from artillery, which are only designed to take down an impregnable position or eliminate an enemy's mass attacking infantry group, these large gas bombs are designed to kill and block out in area.
There was no violent explosion, but the gas was very powerful.
"Ahh ……”
"Poison gas, poison gas ......"
The continuous screams sounded in the dark night, and the Yue army, who was instantly shrouded in poisonous gas, only felt as if they had suddenly fallen into a boundless white mist, and they couldn't get around. The poisonous gas slowly penetrated into the human body from the pores of the eyes, ears, mouth, nose and even skin, and how could the army, which did not even have enough gas masks in a hurry, withstand such a large-scale poison gas bombardment.
One by one, the Yue army howled and rolled to the ground in the dark night, always advocating the use of weapons of mass destruction, and even the development of poison gas was aimed at Chinese or Soviet people, today, for the first time, they tasted the taste of poison gas on a super-large scale, more powerful than the poison gas developed by Yue Ben, more poisonous gas reserves in the Far East, and more importantly, China's air force can drop a steady stream of poison gas, and the Yue army has tried to use poison gas bombs to mass-kill [***] teams, First, it was unable to accurately locate the direction of the squadron, which has always been known for its rapid maneuvers, and second, the air force was inferior to people, and there was such a farce in the past, when bombers loaded with poison gas bombs were blown up in the air, and poison gas drifted in the air with the wind.
Today, more than 100,000 soldiers who had gathered at multiple embarkation sites to prepare for boarding were coincidentally zoned into the scope of the poison gas isolation zone, and they tasted the taste of annihilation.
"Your Excellency the Commander of Protection!! There was an anti-aircraft bunker in front and we rushed into it!! ”
The supreme commander of the Far Eastern Army, Yamashita Fengfumi, and his entourage were naturally treated differently, and the Chinese plane had just dropped the poison gas bomb when it was reported, and although this No. 1 boarding point was a key area for the gas bomb to be dropped, Yamashita Fengfu and others were still quickly stuffed into the armored vehicle by a large number of Saimoto officers and men, and then quickly entered the underground fortifications.
Knowing that the Chinese army would definitely escape, the Chinese Air Force often strafed this coastal area, so there were more air defense bunkers in this area, and for safety reasons, the small hill where Yamashita Fengwen was standing just now was only a few hundred meters away from this underground air defense bunker, and the armored vehicle drove directly into the underground bunker in a blink of an eye.
This is a relatively large underground bunker, because of the open terrain here, it is the most favorable place to board the ship, the army has been focusing on operating here, this underground bunker is relatively large, it can close the circulation of external air when necessary, and there is a certain amount of oxygen and living materials stored inside.
"Close!! Isolate the air!! ”
The officers of the army roared loudly, sending the panicked Yamashita Fengfu directly into the underground bunker, a place they thought was very safe.
A large number of officers and men who had not yet been attacked by poison gas followed the armored vehicle into the only and safest underground bunker in the vicinity, and more than 200 officers and men ran in in a minute or two.
The maximum number of soldiers that this bunker can hold is only 500, and the supply is only enough for a week. This is because this place was once used as an underground material warehouse, so there are so many reserves.
"Gendarmerie! Set up a machine gun and force the door to close! ”
With a wave of his hand, the military police unit that followed the bunker immediately set up a crooked neck machine gun and aimed it at the Yue army, who were frantically pouring into the bunker.
"Close! Fire! ”
With a wave of the major general's hand, seven or eight machine guns and dozens of submachine guns frantically fired at the compatriots who were rushing in at the entrance of the passage, and suddenly the entire passage was cleared.
"Close the door!"
Subsequently, the gate of the passage was closed, and although the soldiers who were fleeing frantically for their lives poured into the passage more and more, they could only hit the thick iron gate with their bodies, and they could not enter at all.
"Your Excellency Commander, please don't be impatient, we will immediately contact the anti-chemical defense troops, and once the poison gas is thin, our rescue troops will come immediately."
A major general in charge of gas warfare said to Yamashita Fumi.
As a matter of fact, the so-called anti-chemical warfare units are nothing more than anti-poison gas units with slightly more complete anti-poison equipment and simple training.
"Immediately contact the outside to see how big this Chinese air raid is, what is the scale of the poison gas dropped, the coverage, the type of poison gas, etc., and find out as soon as possible." In addition, report the situation here to the military department immediately. ”
Yamashita recovered from the initial shock and calmly ordered. Although he was very unwilling in his heart, seeing that the great retreat had just begun, the Chinese actually used poison gas bombs to bomb the area of the boarding point.
Glancing around the originally empty underground bunker, there were now three or four hundred officers and men, most of whom were high-ranking officers and men of the military police, and a small number of officers and men of other divisions and regiments waiting to board the ship.
"Yaga!!"
Yamashita was furious, and what he saw was going to be a successful operation was now reversed, and those who escaped were left to hide in the basement.
He was even very worried that if China learned something from the idea of a gas zone and dropped an equally large-scale gas bomb on this coastal area, where would the Yue army, which was blocked by the gas belt in front and behind, go?
Thinking of this worst-case scenario, Yamashita even had a hellish picture in his mind, and he ordered his staff officers to spread out the map, and from the distribution map of forces marked above, it can be seen that once this worst-case scenario occurs, the area of more than 100 square kilometers where the army is assembled will be blocked by the poison gas isolation zone made by himself and the poison gas belt made by the Chinese, and the north and south directions are the Chinese army.
In the south, the Chinese attacked north from the coastal areas of the Far East, and the central [***] team in the north was attacked by a part of the troops of the Komsomolsk battlefield all the way back to the north.
This will be a real urn, and it will not even be possible to escape, and the sea is the only way to escape, which is very clear in the middle, after all, Sakhalin Island is on the opposite side, and if it were not for the fact that it is too difficult to assemble ships, and it is very easy to be destroyed by the Chinese air group along the coastal road regardless of day and day when there is a lack of sufficient air power to escort it, the army would have jumped over the Tatar Strait and returned to the Hokkaido region by means of Sakhalin.
Now, enough fleets and enough planes have been assembled, and with the big evacuation imminent, there are even thousands of very lucky soldiers who have begun to board the ship, but what about the rest?
The remaining officers and soldiers, including Yamashita Fengfumi, will become the turtle in the urn.
At this time, on the ground, a large number of soldiers died in less than twenty minutes, and even the officers and soldiers in the passage outside the gate of the underground bunker did not escape a catastrophe, and the poisonous gas that gradually settled poured into the passage, and the soldiers who were hiding in the passage and kept banging on the door quickly fell to the ground one by one, wailing and roaring in pain, and the heart-rending sound filled the entire tunnel...... "The poisonous gas has penetrated into the underground passage, Your Excellency Commander, we must close two more doors, The consequence of this is that once the motor that opens the door runs out of power, we will not be able to leave the interior for a short period of time. ”
The door to the underground bunker is not an ordinary door, it is a door that can only be opened and closed with a motor.
"For the time being, security is still the priority, and the Far East army needs us." Yamashita nodded and motioned for him to close the door.
He deliberately walked to the side of the gate just now, wearing a gas mask, he was naturally not in danger through the thick door, but the passage outside was like hell, the sound of banging on the door became smaller and smaller, followed by screams, even through the gate, he could hear it clearly.
A deep sense of powerlessness came over the commander-in-chief of the Far East, who, as the supreme commander, was unable to rescue the soldiers who were only separated by a door.
Although he is very cruel, it does not mean that he can endure this feeling of powerlessness.
Soon, the radio equipment of the underground bunker finally reached Tokyo, and the advanced radio communication equipment obtained from the United States greatly expanded the effective communication distance.
"Chief Tojo! We were attacked by the shameful poison gas of the Chinese! ”
Yamashita reported concisely and concisely as soon as possible.
However, what he heard next from Hideki Tojo made him dumbfounded.
"Yamashita-kun, the Chinese have just announced that we have taken the initiative to use large-scale poison gas, and they have sufficient evidence. The Chinese 201 Biochemical Warfare Unit had already sent a large amount of poison gas to the Far East a few days ago, and you would probably be cut off by the Chinese's poison gas.
The retreat plan will most likely not be able to be continued. ”
Hideki Tojo's voice was full of gloom and anger, but he was far away in Tokyo and could not do anything about the survival of the more than one million troops in the Far East.
As the supreme commander of the military department, Hideki Tojo, who was second only to the emperor as the nominal generalissimo of the land, sea and air, knew very well at this time that these troops would be trapped in the Far East.
"But, Chief Tojo, once this poison gas barrier becomes a reality, it will be difficult for us to return to the original text. I hope that Chief Tojo will send more air forces and transport fleets in the name of the Empire, and try it as much as possible. ”
Yamashita still wanted to hold on, he did not believe that in such a short period of time, the Chinese could complete the plan that the Yue army had to transport and arrange in more than a month, after all, the Yue army only needed to store the poison gas bombs in the corresponding areas, while the Chinese needed to be airdropped from the airport, and the process was much more complicated.
"According to the information we have received from various troops, the Chinese have dropped at least two batches of poison gas, amounting to hundreds of tons, and they no longer have the conditions to retreat. This new type of poison gas of the Chinese is very lethal, and the anti-poison and biochemical equipment of the empire is powerless. ”
Hideki Tojo may have been touched by the pleading in the other party's tone, and said a few more words to explain why he couldn't increase reinforcements, and it seemed that the reason for the retreat was carried out. Of course, he did not explain to the Supreme Commander of the Far East one by one, including that the Chinese are now engaged in fierce battles with Allied night planes over the Tatar Strait, over Sakhalin, and even over parts of Hokkaido.
It was as if they had an endless supply of planes, and there were countless pilots rushing to the Far East from all over the world.
"Sir, is there really no way?"
There was only one person in the communication room, and the rest of the people were kicked out, and he finally asked this sentence, although he knew in his heart that the military department could not meet his demands just now.
"I will go to see the emperor, and if we can reach a special armistice agreement with the Chinese, maybe we still have the possibility of rescuing the Far Eastern team."
This is also the plan that the military think tanks have come up with since the situation deteriorated.
Negotiate with the Chinese and persuade the Americans to negotiate with the Chinese together.
To the surprise of both the military headquarters and the emperor, when he made this euphemistic proposal, the Allied top brass and Washington were quick to express a strong interest.
And if the negotiations fail, the more than one million Yue troops will all become prisoners of the Chinese, of course, the premise must also be to remove those Yue troops who were killed by mass poison gas.
In a few minutes of short phone calls, both Tojo Hideki and Yamashita Fumimi felt a terrifying scene of clouds enveloping the entire Great Empire, when the empire had repeatedly defeated opponents, but now it has in turn cornered the army, and can only seek some kind of way out in the form of negotiations, saying that it is a way out is already the best result, to be precise, it should be a surrender ending of the army in the Far East.
