"Moses Moses ......"

Hatoji Nakayama was dealing with the schedule of his visit to Ami for a few days, especially the Artemis project, which was the focus, when suddenly a hurried bell rang.

On the other end of the phone was the Ministry of Defense, and before the other party could speak, another phone rang, this naval base from the Ryukyus.

But before he could make a choice between the two phone calls, the wooden gate was smashed open by three secret service officers, and then fiercely rushed over and lifted Nakayama Hatoji, heading towards the underground shelter.

After being pushed into the underground passage without him understanding anything and his mind blank, one of the agents slammed the heavy three-proof door shut with a dull loud thud.

Nakayama, who was still being pushed through the layers of isolation passages, grabbed the shoulders of the special service and first determined one thing: I am still alive and no one betrays me.

After all, the aftermath of the assassination had just been completed, and Nakayama Hatoji's first thought was that someone was going to assassinate him, but he immediately vetoed this possibility, and then began to speculate: Is it that the rebels have gone crazy enough to storm the mansion here? But will there be no sound at all with so many secret service security guards? It doesn't seem right.

It wasn't until the secret service who ran all the way to the deepest dark room that Hatoji Nakayama saw an unexpected person.

"Your Royal Highness Haogong, why are you here!"

The latter also seemed to have just been sent here, and the clothes on his body looked very messy, but Hao Gong obviously knew more than him.

I saw him trembling all over, as if he had encountered something extremely terrifying:

"Nuka... East... Missile...... Missiles are about to ...... Edo...... Dead, all ......"

Nakayama was confused when he heard it, but maybe it was too exciting, and Hao Gong at this time would only "Ah, ah, ah".

However, the special service on the side was quite calm, although he was tired and panting, but he still tried to piece together a complete sentence:

"The missiles were about to arrive in Edo, and the Ami didn't stop them."

"Ah??!h

……

Two minutes ago.

The DDG-76 "Higgins" is trying to get close to the territorial waters for observation in the Whale Sea, which is an interesting job for them.

"Cat-and-mouse games" is what they call this kind of reconnaissance, knowing that the intercepted ship is already on its way when they get closer, and it will take a moment for the two sides to stare at each other and leave.

As the third ship of the "Arleigh Burke II" type, although the Higgins is also a serious Aegis ship, that is, an air defense ship, in reality, it basically performs land support missions, and the anti-aircraft missiles have only hit some during the exercise.

The Higgins tried to find some signals of interest while no one was interfering with the radar at full power, but the radar operation room suddenly issued a strong warning.

The operator here suddenly saw a target flying more than Mach 10 coming from the interior, and it was rapidly approaching his own.

The radar operator immediately tried to get more information, but the point of light suddenly disappeared and reappeared close to the midline of the whale sea!

The entire warship immediately went into a mess of alarm bells, and Captain William Rice saw the "extremely low" altitude of the unknown vehicle at a glance, and first thought that it was a space shuttle or spacecraft, after all, they had seen it when Aurora 3 landed some time ago.

But he immediately discovered that something was wrong, although the radar signal was very unstable and extremely difficult to capture, it could still be seen that the unknown vehicle was climbing, very much like using the parabolic kinetic energy acceleration to enhance the penetration capability when the final end of the warhead maneuvered.

In the time he hesitated, the Snowbird had already flown over the Higgins, and William saw a route across Edo.

Considering its obvious radar stealth features and consciously controlled trajectory, he was almost certain that it was not a civilian spacecraft or a space shuttle, and that the radar signals were completely different.

Shoot it down?

The Higgins is equipped with the latest round of upgrades, the Standard 3, which can reach a maximum altitude of 500 kilometers, and has shot down satellites during exercises, but that is more for show.

And the signal of the unknown target on the radar is weak and unstable, and it is absolutely impossible to quickly lock on.

After comprehensive consideration, William chose to bring the whole ship to the highest state of combat readiness, and used satellites to send back "sub-top" warnings to global bases.

This warning means that it is confirmed that a ballistic missile has been launched at a target of "high concern," but it is not clear whether it is a nuclear strike against a certain side, and that the side will immediately enter the highest state of combat readiness after receiving the warning and prepare for the worst.

Whatever the truth is, William feels that he has met the warning conditions, and the situation has not been peaceful recently.

When the Ryukyu base received the warning from the Higgins, the officer on duty also happened to see the bright spot outside the window, and for a moment his scalp was numb, and he pressed the nuclear bomb warning button without hesitation.

At this time, it was already the end of work at the military base, and everyone except for the crew who still had the night shift as planned was either out or in the camp, and when the warning sounded, they were all stunned for a moment before hearing the hoarse roar of the commander.

A group of ground crews filled the fighters with sufficient fuel in accordance with emergency procedures, and all fuselage inspections, weapons mount confirmations, and cockpit inspections were not required, and only the planes and pilots were sent into the sky in the shortest possible time, in an effort to retain as much counterattack force as possible before the airfield was razed.

The pilot, who was carrying the pants of the flight suit, was sent to the plane with all his hands and feet, and then looked at the ground crew who was about to tear out the corner of his eye, buckled the cockpit canopy, left a sentence of "for Ami", jumped off the boarding ladder to clear the debris, and then taxied to the runway one after another through the indicator rod that was almost violently broken.

The F16s were the first to complete the preparation, lined up in a row, and successively opened the maximum elevation angle of afterburner, and in just a few hundred meters, they pulled up and fled outward without looking back.

The remaining F-15 and F-18 planes, as well as other reconnaissance planes, early warning planes, and refueling planes, which needed more time to be prepared, were also preparing for takeoff at the fastest speed, and in just a few minutes, the airport was muffled by the sound of hundreds of planes' engines, but the sirens could still be heard.

The soldiers who were on vacation outside had received text messages on their mobile phones, and a few had already seen the bright spots on the horizon that were more conspicuous because of the sky, and immediately desperately searched for all the basements where they could hide.

The owner of the nearby izakaya, who was often plagued, saw two GIs jump in with the manhole cover of the sewer pipe on the ground, and they didn't even drink a glass of brandy.

But then these citizens who came out to see the excitement also discovered the image of the sky, and I don't know who said "nuclear war!" The streets were immediately plunged into chaos, fleeing for their lives like headless flies.

It took a while for the Ministry of Defense, which had received two warnings from the Higgins and the Ryukyu base, to react and issue a warning to Chiyoda, but the air defense base stationed in Edo Bay had already reacted before them, and the twelve "Patriot 3s" were launched decisively to try to intercept them, just roughly confirming the target.

In just a few minutes, the entire island nation boiled like a waterhole with a red iron block, and Hawaii, which is the closest and has a more military station, could not avoid it, and the warning of a nuclear war at the Ryukyu base was directly relayed here, and all the residents' televisions and mobile phones popped up the warning of a nuclear attack.

Pete, who was driving a Chevrolet car and returning from the beach with his sister, looked at the text message on his mobile phone in confusion, frowned, and said:

"It's another guy's prank, it's so hateful."

"Don't look at that, be careful with the traffic light Pete,...... Oh, my God! ”

Sister Jennifer suddenly saw that the advertising screen next to the traffic light also became an early warning, and then the lower road section code screen and the weather forecast screen were also like this, and then a piercing warning sounded on the street.

Shocked by this accident, Pete almost hit the car in front of him and slammed the steering wheel into the side of the road, but after stopping, he saw the chaos of the street and the constant sound of cars colliding before realizing what was happening, and lost the ability to speak for a while.

Run? Where can you run on this island? A tsunami with the aftermath of an explosion can destroy this place!

Jennifer also quickly understood that the two had no way to escape, and gritted her teeth and turned Pete's shoulder:

"We're all going to die anyway, so why don't we come once?"

Pete shook his whole body, and then said in a trembling voice:

"I love you, sister."

My feet hurt to death
