Chapter 1778: blast back to the stone age
After the German army conquered Okinawa, they did not rush to attack the mainland of the island country.
The Luftwaffe has entered intense preparations. A large number of bombers were deployed on Luzon Island and transferred to airfields in eastern Russia.
The war between Germany and Russia is over, and Russia has been divided into two. One is Russia to the west of the Ural Mountains and the Ural River, and the other is the Russian Republic to the east.
Germany proposed to requisition the airport for bombing island countries. The Russian Republic did not dare to refuse at all. Even if they are a little dissatisfied with this, they can only admit it. Moreover, it is necessary to cooperate with the German army as much as possible so that the German army can move smoothly. Otherwise, once Germany gets angry, the consequences will be unimaginable.
After being defeated and divided into two, Russia no longer has the strength to compete with Germany. Especially the Russian Republic, its strength is very weak. Although they occupy most of Russia's territory, the vast Siberia is originally a place with a vast land and sparsely populated industries. And Germany has defeated powerful enemies one after another, and its position as the world's hegemon has become more and more stable. Therefore, it is undoubtedly very uneconomical to offend Germany at this time. On the contrary, it is most beneficial to befriend Germany.
The German Air Force has invested a lot of troops in order to deal with the island country this time. In terms of tactical aviation clusters, it includes the 1st, 2nd, 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th aviation clusters. In terms of strategic aviation clusters, it includes the 1st, 2nd and 3rd aviation clusters.
In view of the fact that Luzon Island is far away from the mainland of the island country, and the Far East of the Russian Republic is further away from the mainland of the island country. So, both the strategic 1st and 2nd aviation clusters were transferred to the Russian Republic. The tactical 1st, 2nd, 5th and 6th aviation groups were also transferred to the Russian Republic. In this case, it is more convenient to bomb the island country.
On September 15, the Luftwaffe launched the first round of bombing on the island country. 480 H-31 heavy bombers and 240 H-11 medium bombers of the Strategic 1st and 2nd aviation groups, under the cover of 480 BF-110 long-range fighters, and 480 TA-152 fighters, flew from the Far East of the Russian Republic Departed, crossed the sea of ??whales, and bombed the mainland of the island country. The target of the bombing this time was Tokyo, the capital of the island nation.
As the largest and most populous city in the island country, once Germany can destroy the city with bombers, it will be a great blow to the island country. Especially for the morale of the islanders, it will undoubtedly be a serious blow.
At 10:00 in the morning, the huge fleet of the Luftwaffe passed through the Sea of ??Whales and entered the sky above the mainland of the island country. In fact, after the huge German fleet entered the whale sea, it was discovered by the island country's air search radar. The Army Air Force of the island country immediately took off a large number of P-47 fighter jets and P-51 fighter jets to meet the enemy.
It's just that, after many wars in the Army Air Force of the island country, there are not many fighters left. In particular, the loss of pilots was very serious. This time, hundreds of P-47 fighter jets and P-51 fighter jets barely took off to face the Luftwaffe.
The performance of the P-47 fighter jets and P-51 fighter jets is quite strong, barely able to withstand the BF-110 fighter jets of the Luftwaffe. But facing the TA-152 fighter jet of the German Air Force, it is not an opponent at all.
At the same time, a large number of carrier-based aircraft took off from the aircraft carriers of the three major fleets of the German Navy, and also participated in the bombing of Tokyo. This made the Japanese Army Air Force exhausted.
After some fighting, the Army Air Force of the island country suffered heavy losses, unable to withstand the attack of the German Air Force at all, and was completely driven away from the surrounding areas of Tokyo.
"Open fire! Shoot down the German plane!" The Tokyo Air Defense Commander issued an order.
The air defense force of the island country army deployed thousands of anti-aircraft guns, large and small, in Tokyo. It's just that, for bombers at high altitudes, only large-caliber anti-aircraft guns can threaten them.
Escort fighter jets of the Imperial Air Force and carrier-based dive bombers of the Navy launched attacks one after another, attacking the air defense positions of the island army, suppressing its air defense firepower, and creating conditions for the bombing of the air force bombers.
"Drop the altitude and prepare to drop the bomb!"
Although the anti-aircraft firepower on the ground has not been completely suppressed, the bomber fleet of the Luftwaffe has already begun to make preparations before dropping bombs.
A large number of bombers began to descend.
"Boom! Boom!"
Anti-aircraft artillery shells exploded around the fighter planes, and some unlucky bombers were hit by anti-aircraft guns, causing severe damage or crashing directly. But even this could not scare the pilots of the Luftwaffe.
After the magazine was opened, bombs fell like raindrops one after another.
"Amaterasu! Please bless us!"historical
Seeing that the German bombers started dropping bombs, many islanders shouted in horror.
A bomb hits the street and explodes. However, what is surprising is that the explosion was not violent, and at the same time, there were a lot of black jelly scattered everywhere. This surprised the islanders.
"Boom!"
A smaller bomb explodes, sending flames flying everywhere.
Afterwards, a violent fire burned fiercely. In particular, the black jelly that was scattered everywhere quickly became a source of fire.
"There's a fire, put it out!"
Some islanders rushed to put out the fire with water, but they found that these fires could not be extinguished at all.
Most of the bombs dropped by the Luftwaffe on Tokyo this time were specially developed incendiary bombs. Or napalm bombs.
Because of the frequent earthquakes in the island country, many buildings are made of wood. Therefore, the damage caused to the island country by incendiary bombs will be greater than that by ordinary bombs.
When the Luftwaffe dropped a large number of incendiary bombs, the whole of Tokyo seemed to be ignited. A large number of houses burned, and with the help of the wind, it spread to the entire urban area of ??Tokyo.
Countless islanders fled in all directions, but many were burned to ashes by the fire. Some people even jumped into the lake in the park to escape, but the intense heat made the lake boil. The islanders who jumped into the lake were cooked directly.
During the bombing of the German army, half of the city of Tokyo was burned down, and the loss of personnel was heavy.
And, this is just the beginning. After the Germans bombed Tokyo, they bombed Niigata, Sendai, Yokohama and other places the next day. Then it bombed Shizuoka, Hamamatsu, Nagoya, Kyoto, Osaka, Kobe, Okayama, Hiroshima, Kitakyushu, Fukuoka, Kumamoto and other places. Almost all these big cities in the entire island country were blown into ruins.
Even, even those small and medium-sized cities were not spared. This not only caused huge losses to the population of the island country, but also severely damaged the industry of the island country. The whole country was almost blown back to the Stone Age.
