Seven hundred and twenty-two. The ultimate mission - the atomic bomb!
On September 20, 1943, after the end of the Battle of Moscow, the four-nation talks between Germany, China, the United States, and Great Britain, which had been going on for a month, ended in Berlin.
At this meeting, Germany's military intervention in the situation in the Far East was recognized by China, the United States, and Britain.
On the same day, the German negotiators concluded negotiations with the Nationalist Government in Chongqing, China, and the Sino-German Chongqing Treaty of Friendship and Mutual Assistance was signed.
At the same time that the two sides were intensively negotiating for an early end to the war, the German Far East Army was formed, led by German Field Marshal Fritz. Erich. Feng. Manstein served as commander-in-chief of the Far Eastern Army.
The corps assembled the Manstein assault group, the Guderian assault cluster, and the moder assault cluster.
Manstein, Guderian, Moder, these three Ernst . Bramm's most powerful assistant stood together again. The only pity is that among these people, there is still another bright star in Germany who is still stationed in Africa:
Erwin. Rommel.
Since October, large quantities of German aid to China have arrived.
After receiving strong support from Germany, the Nationalist Government took the lead in launching a counteroffensive on the Chinese battlefield. At this time, the situation on the battlefield had been completely reversed, and Japan had become a country that had to deal with the challenge from Germany, China, the United States, and Britain on its own, and they had no possibility of winning at all.
Beginning at the end of October, the United States increased its troop deployment in the Pacific theater. At the same time, Germany's first aircraft carrier "Baron Skeleton" and its escort fleet joined the battlefield.
From October 1943 to May 1944, the Allies launched several large-scale offensive operations. A heavy blow was dealt to the vitality of Japan, which is now suffering the same defeat as the Soviet Union. It's all irretrievable.
On May 10, 1944, a large number of German troops gathered on the Sino-Russian border, and this operation was codenamed "Zeus's Lightning".
At 3 a.m. on May 12, 1 million German troops and 200,000 Russian Free Army launched a powerful offensive against the Japanese Kwantung Army from three directions.
In just a few hours, all three German assault clusters crossed the border. The Erguna, Heilongjiang and Ussuri rivers were forcibly crossed, and they entered northeastern China from the coast of Zabaikal, the Heilongjiang River, and the coastal areas respectively, and launched a powerful attack on a frontal battlefield of 5,000 kilometers.
The end of Japan has come!
The strength of the Wehrmacht and the Waffen-SS, which had experienced the baptism of war in Russia. It was no longer something that the Japanese Kwantung Army could resist. Especially under the command of the three famous German generals, Manstein, Guderian and Moder, the German offensive was simply overwhelming.
The Kwantung Army's defensive line began to crumble......
In order to cooperate with the German offensive against the Kwantung Army, the Chinese army and the American army launched a strategic counteroffensive against the Japanese army in several theaters at the same time. Millions of troops. The iron fist of vengeance has been unleashed!
May 16th. The Battle of Changchun broke out in a state of Japanese haste. The assault group, commanded by Field Marshal Manstein himself, had completely taken the initiative on the battlefield by the 17th.
On the 18th, the Japanese army abandoned Changchun.
The three major German assault clusters did not give up because of this, and the three powerful armies advanced in unison, and the Kwantung Army lost any ability to resist.
On the 21st, Field Marshal Manstein, commander-in-chief of the German Far East Army, urged the Kwantung Army to surrender immediately and unconditionally, and the last effective period of this order was 0:00 a.m. on the 24th.
It's time for the Japanese to make their choice.
23 days and nights, in a situation of complete despair. The commander of the Japanese Kwantung Army, General Umezu Mijiro, announced the surrender of the Kwantung Army, and he and his men were all taken prisoner by the Germans.
The once invincible Kwantung Army perished.
In this battle. 190,000 Japanese Kwantung Army were killed in battle, and 620,000 were captured and surrendered. Japan, which was already in danger, has once again suffered the heaviest blow!
However, from Ernst. Marshal Bream's anger apparently did not end here......
......
In July 1944, after numerous bloody battles, the Allies took control of the battlefield. At the end of July, after a fierce battle, the U.S. forces seized Okinawa at the cost of 50,000 casualties, and the Japanese mainland was directly bombed by the Allied air force.
In the same month, two new German aircraft carriers "Adolf. "Hitler" and "Rommel" arrived on the battlefield at the same time. And with the arrival of the two aircraft carriers, there is also the legend of Germany, the pride of Germany:
Ernst. Alexon. Feng. Bram - Skull Baron!
There are some things that must be done by him himself, and he must be witnessed.
He once said: "I have come, I have seen, I have conquered"!
Now, the undefeated god of war, the Great Conqueror, has once again appeared on the battlefield in person.
When Field Marshal Ernst appeared on the battlefield, the German government informed US President Franklin D. Roosevelt and British Prime Minister Winston Churchill that Germany had possessed a powerful superweapon capable of ending the war quickly.
What is such a superweapon? The German side did not specify, and the British did not know very well. But President Roosevelt was quick to guess a possibility:
Germany, already has the atomic bomb!
And judging from the German government's confident statement, the number of atomic bombs in Germany's possession will probably be more than five......
The United States almost became the first country to possess an atomic bomb, and even their "Manhattan Project" had been launched, but then a series of extremely strange things happened, which finally put the American atomic bomb project on hold.
And now, the Germans are coming!
The struggle for air supremacy has become extremely important. The United States was also eager to end the war as soon as possible, and they unconditionally supported Germany's use of such a "superweapon" to force Japan to surrender early.
How powerful is the atomic bomb? Not only did the Americans know what to do, but even the Germans themselves didn't have much of a bottom. Although the original bullet has fully demonstrated its destructive power on the battlefield in the previous test explosion.
More and more German and American air forces joined the fight, although the Japanese used "kamikaze" to carry out suicidal attacks. They tried to save the battlefield from defeat, but their attack method of "one man, one aircraft, and one bomb for one ship" caused great losses to Germany and the United States. But it did not stop the loss of air supremacy at all.
By September, Japan had completely thrown its own skies to the enemy......
Now, by Ernst. Marshal Bream's own plan to name "Violence" has swept away all obstacles.
The official implementation of the "violent" plan was determined on September 18, 1944.
This is a day of special significance, 13 years ago on this day, the "9/18 Incident" broke out. China's arduous War of Resistance began.
Now, 13 years later, Germany will take revenge on China, and it will be the one who directs Germany's revenge. But still a Chinese:
Wang Weiyi - the Germans called him Ernst. Brahm!
September 18, 4:30 a.m., Tinian Island.
Wang Weiyi got up very early, and he silently watched everything on the sea. In a few hours, a bombardment that is bound to shake the entire world is coming.
Standing beside him. was the commander-in-chief of the German Navy. Marshal Karl. Dönitz and the Commander-in-Chief of the Luftwaffe, Air Marshal Manfred. Albrecht. Feng. Richthofen.
"The Marseilleu Flying Squadron is ready." Richthofen looked at the busy airport and said, "Ernst, is the atomic bomb really as powerful as you say?" ”
"Yes, Manfred, it's more powerful than you can imagine." Wang Weiyi didn't see any smile on his face, but said unusually calmly: "It is enough to destroy a city, enough to make Japan have no chance to remember the cost of the war, even if it wants to remember it......"
Richthofen and Dönitz shuddered.
Although everything has to do with the atomic bomb. I had only heard it from some other source, but it depended when it came out of the mouth of Field Marshal Ernst. And they inexplicably felt scared.
The atomic bomb, what kind of terrible weapon is that?
What kind of devastating power will the atomic bomb bring to Japan?
"You will soon be able to know the Dao......" As if seeing their thoughts, Wang Weiyi's face finally showed some smiles: "What I can assure you is that you will never forget what you saw today in your life!" ”
"Field Marshal Dönitz, telegram from General Nimitz of the United States."
When he heard the news, Field Marshal Dönitz hurriedly left the deck, and at this time, Richthofen suddenly said: "Ernst, you said that this will be your last mission in Germany, and after completing this mission, are you really ready to leave?" ”
"Yes, I'm leaving."
"Do you remember your promise to me?"
"Of course, Manfred." Wang Weiyi smiled: "I said that I would take you to experience the wonderful things I have experienced, but are you really willing to give up everything now?" When I say give up, I want you to forget what you have done, and what kind of person you used to be! ”
Richthofen did not understand the true meaning of "giving up", but he said with rare seriousness: "Yes, I do." I know that you have experienced things that no one else has ever experienced. If I am lucky enough to join you in exploring the wonderful world of the world that we did not know before, I am willing to give up everything...... Here, the war is coming to an end, and people like me are no longer needed. Ernst, I believe in everything with you I can get more ......"
"Yes, you can get more." Wang Weiyi nodded: "In addition to the wonderful experience and unforgettable adventure of a lifetime, I can also give you a ...... that no one can give you." Eternal Youth......"
Richthofen's mouth opened wide...... Eternal youth? Is it as eternal youth as the Skull Baron?
Legend has it that Baron Skeleton was once protected by the Grim Reaper, who not only gave him undefeat on the battlefield, but also gave him eternal youth, is all this legend true?
However, Wang Weiyi didn't say anything more to him......
September 18, 1943, 7 a.m.
Several German planes entered the skies over Hiroshima, Japan. After circling a few times, he left Hiroshima without dropping a single bomb. The Japanese air defense alert was lifted.
At this time, on Tinian Island, the Marseilleu Flying Squadron had completed preparations for takeoff.
The "Hercules" transport plane was loaded with an atomic bomb named "Apollo".
In ancient Greek mythology, when Apollo was born, the sky was full of golden light, and Apollo's eyebrows were embedded with a dazzling sun; The goddesses of heaven exclaimed with joy.
And now, in the sky over Hiroshima. is also about to rise a thousand golden lights......
"Take off, Major Marseilleu, history will remember this day. History will remember your name. "Ernst. Marshal Braem personally gave such an order!
"Yes, Your Excellency Marshal, you will live up to the name of Ernst!"
With Marseilleu's resounding answer, the squadron embarked on their journey that would be enough to change history......
......
Minutes and seconds passed. With the shortening of the distance over Japan. Hercules is rising. At 7:20 a.m., the altitude had reached 30,000 feet, which would have protected it from Japanese anti-aircraft fire. At 7:35 a.m., the plane received an important message from a reconnaissance plane that was going to Hiroshima for reconnaissance:
Visibility over Hiroshima was good, cloud coverage was less than 30%, no interception by enemy fighters during reconnaissance, and anti-aircraft artillery fire was weak, so it was recommended to give priority to Hiroshima.
Immediately after that, the planes that went to Kokura and Nagasaki for reconnaissance also sent back meteorological reports one after another: The meteorological conditions over the target were good. Bombs can be dropped.
Marseille thought about it and decided to bomb Hiroshima. And send a telegram back to the base: it was decided to bomb the 1st target.
Previously. Alarms sounded over the city of Hiroshima, and several German planes flew into the sky over Hiroshima, circled for a week, and then left in a hurry.
About half an hour later, the sirens sounded again, and Hercules and the two planes that were conducting the observation were approaching Hiroshima.
The citizens of Hiroshima seem to have become indifferent to the air raid sirens they have become accustomed to, so few people have taken refuge in bomb shelters. Some of them were working, some were on the road, some were staying at home, and some were still looking up at the planes in the distance on the street, thinking that the three planes would "patrol" around and then leave.
At this time, Marseilleu on board had solemnly announced to the entire crew through the microphone: "We are ready to bomb Hiroshima, in the name of Germany, in the name of Ernst!" ”
A clear outline of the city appears underneath the plane.
"Ready, ready to drop bombs, put on goggles." Marseillo commanded.
"Aligned!"
"Cast!"
With Marseilleu's order, the bomb bay door opened automatically.
Due to the sudden weight loss, the plane leaped towards the ......
In an instant, a dazzling white light illuminated the entire plane, and a huge circular fireball rose into the air, expanding in volume sharply.
It was an atomic bomb – the first atomic bomb in the world exploded over Hiroshima!
In an instant, the city rolled up a huge mushroom-shaped cloud of smoke, and Hiroshima was reduced to a sea of fire.
About 70,000 to 80,000 people were killed and nearly 100,000 injured by the atomic bombing. The power of the atomic bomb is completely astounding!
If the Japanese think that all this is over, then they are wrong, all this is just the beginning!
At 9:00, the second and third flight squadrons took off one after another, this time, carrying two atomic bombs called "Artemis" and "Athena", and their targets would be Nagasaki and Kokura.
The Germans are crazy, Ernst is crazy!
They will drop three atomic bombs in a row on September 18th!
Nagasaki and Kokura, like Hiroshima, were destroyed in a huge mushroom cloud......
But is that the end? No – that's just the beginning!
Three atomic bombs destroyed three cities, but the Germans had not three atomic bombs, nor the eight predicted by the Americans.
This time, they prepared eight atomic bombs for Japan!
A whole eight atomic bombs!
On September 19 and 20, Japan's Shintori, Osaka, Nara, and Yokohama were bombed by German atomic bombs one after another. In just three days, seven atomic bombs fell on seven major cities in Japan!
Seven cities were completely destroyed......
Now, the Germans still have an atomic bomb left in their hands, and this atomic bomb was reserved for one city:
Tokyo!
Wang Weiyi will never let go of such an opportunity, he will never let go of the capital of Japan!
He didn't even give the Japanese any chance to negotiate!
On September 23, 1943, the Marseilleu Flying Squadron, which dropped the world's first atomic bomb, took off again, this time carrying the last atomic bomb that Ernst had brought:
"Hades"!
Hades – This is the King of Hell! This is the lord of hell!
Now, let's take all the Japanese in Tokyo to hell!
Hades – the king of hell!
Ernst - Hellboy!
He brought with him the command of the Grim Reaper, and he will faithfully fulfill the last mission that the Grim Reaper has given him in this era:
End Japan!
This will be his ultimate mission in this era!
The ultimate mission - the atomic bomb!
At 9:20 a.m. on September 23, Tokyo, the capital of Japan, like the previous seven cities, was drowned in a huge and terrifying mushroom cloud.
It's over, and now it's all over!
Eight mushroom clouds continue to rise in Japan, and eight atomic bombs have dragged Japan into a bottomless abyss. From now on, Japan will go to ruin!
There is a man who has been waiting for this day for a long, long time, and he has completed this task of his own with his own hands, and he has done what he has always dreamed of doing with his own hands.
All will remember everything he did, and all will remember his name:
Baron Alexon! (To be continued......)
