Chapter 364: Burning (5): Hirohito in the Firelight

At the same time, in the Emperor's Palace, Kanaya Fanzo, who had just finished dinner and was about to go to bed, was called into the Emperor's Palace overnight. The emperor's expression was very serious, and he was actually dressed neatly, wearing a military uniform without military rank and an emperor's saber, and he looked so presentable, but the sorrow on his face betrayed him.

When Kanaya Fan San entered the palace, he happened to see the two priests of the shrine leaving quickly, and the emperor of the heart said how to meet the priests overnight.

"His Majesty the Emperor!"

Hirohito's side sat the empress, who had just gotten up to accompany him, and he was dressed in a military uniform and said to Kanaya Fanzo, "Kanaya-kun, you are the elder state of the empire, and you are well aware of the Chinese policy of the empire in the past dynasties, especially the current policy. I called you here to hear your views on the current policy. ”

"Your Majesty, the current policy of the Empire is absolutely correct, and I have no superfluous opinions."

"What if such a policy would bring great disaster to the Empire?" Hirohito asked.

"We have always taken great risks in our policies toward China, but we have all won the final victory. Your Majesty, Amaterasu will protect the Empire. Kanaya said.

"Please answer my question."

Kanaya Fanzo: "I think that a certain sacrifice will stimulate the unanimous hatred of the outside world in people's hearts, and it will also help to alleviate domestic contradictions. A certain sacrifice will also allow us to get more aid from the Allies, and I think it is worth trading small for big. ”

Hirohito let out a sigh of relief, "The weather is good tonight, you accompany me out to see the starry sky." ”

Obviously, the emperor has been persuaded by Kanaya Fanzo, and he, who is indecisive but adventurous, has now let go of his worries, and half a month ago the underground anti-aircraft bunkers and safe passages under the palace have been tested with the strictest inspection, and at a critical moment, he will not be afraid of possible ordinary bombing from China.

It's just a pity that Hirohito obviously didn't expect how determined China was to bomb the island nation.

Looking at the starry sky is just an excuse, and the topic of Hirohito's chat with Kanaya in the small garden has changed to that of Americans, and how to get greater help and more support from Americans is something that both of them are very concerned about.

The whole of Tokyo seems to be quiet at this time, due to the lack of energy, the power generation is also seriously insufficient, the night of Tokyo is dark, and unlike the big cities of China that are brightly lit at night, Tokyo, the so-called capital of the Yamato nation, also has to be immersed in darkness.

It's not that I'm saving, but there is really no electricity available, and all energy is milked and sent to the front, and the Emperor's Palace uses electricity from a small power plant nearby. Everywhere else, except for a few factories, it was pitch black, but there was a lot of candlelight and the dim glow of oil lamps.

"What a beautiful starry sky, I don't know if China's starry sky is as beautiful as the empire sees, I really hope that I will have the opportunity to stand on the land of China in the future and look at the starry sky overhead."

Hirohito, who had everything on his mind, revealed his huge ambitions in an instant.

Kanaya Fan San smiled and said, "Once you win the victory, Your Majesty can even move the Emperor's Palace to the northeast and fulfill the unfulfilled wish ten years ago." ”

"Hahaha......"

Hirohito looked at the starry sky and laughed out loud, after this period of psychological struggle, he had made up his mind to gather all the power of the book at all costs so that the Allies could win the war, and his appetite was nowhere else, but China across the water.

Laughing and laughing, Hirohito's voice gradually laughed because he heard a strange sound.

At this time, over Tokyo, the first wave of Chinese planes bombing Tokyo had arrived.

On the A128 Tianshen strategic bomber, Li Tiangang has completed the final target locking mission.

"Captain, the target has been locked, and the height is right enough to drop bombs."

Hearing Li Tiangang's loud report, Zhao Chuanyu, the captain of the plane, who had already received the order to drop the bomb, immediately ordered: "The No. 1 magazine throws incendiary bombs, and the No. 2 magazine throws conventional bombs. ”

Two soldiers who are specifically responsible for bomb dropping are working on the horizontal bomb dropper in their hands according to the positioning information, and after finally confirming the target, both of them press the bomb drop button.

Immediately, four one-ton aerial bombs and napalm were dropped on each of the two bomb magazines, like dumplings. As huge as the T-40, the fuselage could not be shaken, and the feeling of the bomb leaving the plane made the crew feel very steady.

They were the first batch of bombs dropped in the first wave, and they didn't need to think about the superfluous at all, and they only needed to drop both the aerial bombs and the incendiary bombs on the Emperor's Palace, which was the largest target.

Bombing was indiscriminate, but bombing gave priority to the Emperor's Palace and barracks, air defense positions, factories, and secondarily indiscriminate.

As the A128T-40 Tenjin strategic bomber, which was the first to drop bombs, began to open its bomb magazines in the night sky, mixing heavy aerial bombs and napalm bombs.

The 200 bombers were divided into ten formations and flew over Tokyo's main targets like a military parade, and their cabins were loaded with enough content to make Tokyo the most dazzling night city in the world at this moment.

In the dark of night, at the moment when the army's air defense system responded, a large number of bombs had already been dropped.

"Kanaya-kun, did you hear that? What was that?? ”

There was a buzzing sound of bees in the sky, but it seemed to be magnified tens of thousands of times, which was very scary.

However, before Kanaya could speak, he heard a sharper sound, a scream from the fall of a heavy object from the sky.

To be more precise, Kanaya Fanzo knew very sure that it was the sound of a heavy aerial bomb falling, but he couldn't believe it, he couldn't believe it at all, however, there was no need for him to say anything more, Hirohito's face also changed drastically, and he thought of the worst possibility.

"Woo woo woo ......"

Almost at the same time, a sharp air raid siren sounded, waking up all the citizens of Tokyo.

I didn't let the Emperor and Kanaya wait long, but they felt that the screams were getting closer and closer, as if they had just landed overhead, and those huge guys had already landed.

"Boom ......"

The first place to land and explode was a military camp less than 500 meters away from the Emperor's Palace, and the sound of the explosion was not loud, and even for a moment Hirohito and Kanaya had the illusion that the Chinese bomb charge was not enough, or it was just a false alarm.

However, it was only in the next moment that a huge flame rose from the barracks, including Hirohito and Kanaya Fanzo, as well as all the people in the Emperor's Palace, and even the people near the barracks, were shocked to find that the incendiary bombs, the enemy actually dropped such an incredibly powerful incendiary bomb.

The huge flame first spread like an explosion, and then many solidified materials burst out of the huge projectile body, and these objects splashed with fire, whether it was people or wooden buildings, and the facilities in the barracks began to burn violently.

A napalm weighing more than a ton is enough to surround it with flames within a range of tens or even hundreds of meters, and very few people or objects within this range can dodge.

So, under the emperor's eyelids, the first napalm exploded in the barracks hundreds of meters away.

Almost instantly, there were clearly audible screams from the barracks.

"Ah......h

"Ah......h

The screams and the explosion sound of the subsequent bombs falling were mixed together, and even seemed to drown out the explosion, it was a kind of scream that came out of the bones, napalm stuck to the body and burned, it could not be wiped off, it could not be extinguished, it could not be hidden, whether it was stumbling or crawling, the light of the fire always wrapped the officers and soldiers.

The vast majority of the garrison units of the Guards Division, known as the most elite of the Imperial Army, were swallowed up by the flames, and they were targets on the same level as the Emperor's Palace.

"Your Majesty, quick, quick, run!! Air raid by the Chinese!! ”

It's a long story, but in fact, it's just a blink of an eye, and after Kanaya Fan San lost his mind for a moment, he didn't know where the strength came from, so he ran away with the emperor.

Hirohito also quickly came to his senses, this was not the time to watch a play, and it was obvious that the palace was by no means safe.

The sound of bombs falling continuously, the sound of huge explosions, bombs and incendiary bombs that exploded in the night sky like small mushroom clouds, have long been terrifying and devastated by His Majesty the Emperor, who had dreamed of going to the mainland of China to 'inspect the new land' a few minutes ago.

He couldn't think much about anything, only thought as a normal person, and ran !!

Soon, however, the Imperial Palace, a strategic target, was bombed just a few seconds later.

"Woo ......"

Bombs and napalm let out a long screech and fell to the ground with a huge impact, causing a huge explosion in the Imperial Palace.

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! …… The Emperor's Palace is 720,000 square meters and the Emperor's Palace is 27,000 square meters. However, in the past few decades, it is precisely such a country that is inferior to China in everything and can hardly be compared with China in anything that has taken the lead in developing and has become bigger and bigger by sucking China's blood.

Rumble!!

The small Emperor's Palace was soon hit by a heavy bomb on the side hall near the street, and in the huge explosion, all the side halls collapsed, bricks and tiles flew sideways, and people were injured when they saw it.

With a pop, the emperor only felt that it was dark in front of him, and an unknown object hit his forehead, not only him, but also Kanaya Fanzo and the staff of the Emperor's Palace next to him, and the flying brick fragments instantly came to a group of injuries, including the emperor and the empress Yoshiko, more or less injured.

"Quick, protect His Majesty the Emperor from entering the underground bunker!!"

The Imperial Palace is not large, and the entrance to the underground bunker is just around the corner more than twenty meters away, and the explosion has not yet reached there.

However, the emperor and others were lucky enough to avoid the first bomb, but they did not continue to be so lucky.

"Woo......"

"Boom!!"

Finally, an incendiary bomb fell, and it landed right in the small garden of the Emperor's Palace, where Hirohito and the others were staying just now.

However, the incendiary bomb with an excessively large explosion area still affected Hirohito's group.

"Ahh

The screams suddenly sounded as fiercely as killing pigs.
