Recently, Japan can be said to have fallen into its darkest hour.

The Combined Fleet was almost completely wiped out.

This was equivalent to breaking the backbone of Japan.

Especially when the news of the destruction of the Combined Fleet spread throughout the country, it shocked the people of the country.

On this day, the people of the whole country seemed to be wailing. There were many suicides.

At the same time, there was a huge chaos.

Japan has always been very fond of rebelling against its superiors.

Although the situation of the navy is better, it is inevitable that such things will happen.

Navy Minister Osumi Tsuneo was shot and killed directly in his office.

The entire office area of the Ministry of the Navy was bloodbathed by these fierce middle and low-level soldiers.

They seemed to be still not satisfied.

They wanted to attack the Military Command.

But they were suppressed by the Imperial Guard Division that rushed over.

More than 200 people were directly wiped out.

This rebellion also made the navy panic.

Emperor Hirohito was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

It took a lot of effort to suppress this nationwide riot.

But the influence of the destruction of the Combined Fleet was too great.

This is equivalent to the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895. It directly caused the entire Japanese navy to be unable to recover.

What sank was not only the Japanese warships, but also the naval talents they spent a lot of effort to train.

If they want to train them again, the cost is comparable to rebuilding the warships of the Combined Fleet.

"We need to build more powerful battleships and reorganize the Combined Fleet. We must avenge this."

After Japan regained its spirits, it began to formulate a shipbuilding plan for the new Combined Fleet.

This included the idea of building Yamato-class battleships, with a total of four ships planned to be built.

They need more powerful battleships, aircraft carriers and fighter planes.

New battleships are gradually being put on the agenda.

As for the so-called restrictions of the Washington Naval Treaty, Japan can no longer care so much.

At the same time, Emperor Hirohito also began to call on the people of the country to donate money and materials, and he himself began to tighten his belt and diet to support the navy's shipbuilding plan.

The emperor personally called for a very good effect.

Even if many people's homes were penniless, they borrowed money to donate.

This also shows the influence of Emperor Hirohito among the people.

But this also exacerbated Japan's economic crisis.

Their economy has begun to be impacted by Chinese industrial products.

The textile industry can be said to be one of Japan's economic pillar industries.

After the Northeast began to exert its strength, it seized their Many markets.

There is also a food shortage in Japan.

Various contradictions and problems are constantly accumulating.

Tokyo, the most prosperous and largest city in Japan, does not seem to have been affected too much.

The streets are still bustling with people, and everyone is rushing for their livelihood.

When the time came to more than ten o'clock in the morning.

A large group of bombers crossed the Tsushima Strait and entered the sky over the Japanese mainland.

Because there were no fighter escorts.

The bombers adopted high-altitude bombing.

Basically, the altitude was maintained at more than 8,000 meters.

The actual strategic bomber group will even fly to an altitude of 10,000 meters.

Both the peacekeeping bomber and the century strategic bomber are equipped with advanced sighting systems. Even at an altitude of 10,000 meters, in the absence of thick clouds, it can also have a relatively high accuracy rate.

Such a large fleet was discovered after entering the Japanese land.

"Damn it, this is a Chinese attack plane, damn it, prepare for air defense immediately."

When passing over Tottori Prefecture, it immediately caused great panic.

However, they found that the bomber group did not bomb Tottori, but continued to fly northeast.

A Japanese general's face suddenly changed.

"Is the Chinese's target Kyoto? No, Tokyo is also in this direction. Their target must be Tokyo."

Thinking of this, his face turned pale instantly.

The dense bombing was like a swarm of locusts covering the sky and the sun. There were so many that they couldn't count them.

If such a large group of bombers bombed Tokyo, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Send a message to Kyoto and Tokyo immediately, quickly!"

"Report to the commander, according to the map comparison, we have arrived in Tottori Prefecture, and it is still 500 kilometers away from Tokyo. It will take about an hour and a half to reach Tokyo."

Among the fleet, there is a Century Strategic Bomber painted in white flying at the forefront of the entire large formation.

And this Century Strategic Bomber is the pilot of the entire formation.

Lieutenant General Gao Zhihang, commander of the First Air Force, is on this pilot flying at an altitude of 12,000 meters.

The role of the pilot is unquestionable, not to mention such a large formation.

This is also the first time that the Air Force has organized such a large bomber fleet.

So Gao Zhihang also personally took charge of the pilot aircraft.

Gao Zhihang glanced at the map, nodded and said,"I understand."

At the same time, Tokyo also received telegrams from cities along the way.

All telegrams pointed to one situation.

China's bomber fleet is heading towards Tokyo.

"What? The Chinese bombers? How many are there?"

"Your Majesty, according to reports from various places, the number is at least seven or eight hundred."

A lieutenant general said with a pale face

""Pah."

The pen in Emperor Hirohito's hand fell unconsciously.

It was obvious that Hirohito was also stunned by this number.

"Your Majesty, at this speed, the enemy is less than an hour away from us. (To read the novel, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

For your Majesty's safety, let's move to a safe place."

Hirohito naturally knew the current situation. He followed the Imperial Guards and began to move.

At the same time, all the airports near Tokyo began to take off the Army Air Force fighter planes.

Most of them were Nakajima Type 91 fighters.[]

This is also one of the main high-wing fighters of the Japanese Army Aviation.

So far, more than 300 have been produced. It was only put into service in 1928, with a maximum flight speed of 300 kilometers per hour and only two 7.7mm machine guns as weapons.

This is also the most advanced fighter of the Army Aviation.

In just half an hour, more than 300 fighter planes took off.

Hovering over Tokyo.

In addition to the Army Aviation, ground air defense forces have also all entered combat status.

The desolate air defense alarm resounded throughout Tokyo.

A large number of police officers, firefighters, etc. began to take to the streets to organize people to enter air-raid shelters or hide at home.

More than an hour passed quickly.

At this moment, the whole of Tokyo is still in panic and chaos.

""Here they come."

When everyone saw the bombers appearing in the sky, their faces changed drastically.

The huge bombers covered the sky and the whole sky was full of bombers. It took a few more glances to see the edges.

""Run!"

This was the thought that came to everyone's mind.

Suddenly, the streets of Tokyo became even more chaotic, with people crowded everywhere.

After all, it was a city with a population of millions, and it was not easy to evacuate.

A large-scale stampede was inevitable.

There were shouts, cries for help, and curses everywhere.......

"Commander, we're here, we're in Tokyo."

Gao Zhihang was shocked and came to the porthole, looking at the city cluster not far away, his eyes sparkling.

"Pass my order, each squadron will carry out the bombing according to the established plan."

Before setting off, each bomber squadron determined its own target area.

The weather over Tokyo is very good now, the clouds are thin and sparse, and the buildings below can be clearly seen.

As the order was issued, the huge group of bombers began to disperse and head towards their respective targets.

Each formation has its own lead aircraft, and it did not appear chaotic due to too many fighter planes.

The target of the formation where Gao Zhihang was located was the Imperial Palace.

During World War II, the Eagle Sauce also organized a bombing of Tokyo, and the person in charge was Li Mei.

But they did not attack the Imperial Palace.

That's because the Eagle Sauce just wants to end the war quickly.

If the emperor is killed, the entire Japan will be leaderless, and it will not be so easy to end the war.

But Jiang Fan has no such concerns, and he even hopes so. Hirohito's entire family was killed in the bombing.

So the Imperial Palace was also included in the key bombing targets.

When the bomber group approached Tokyo on July 7, hundreds of Japanese fighter planes of various types climbed frantically.

They wanted to intercept the huge bomber group.

However, the altitude above 8,000 meters was beyond their reach.

At this altitude, there was no enclosed cockpit, turbocharging technology, etc., and they could not climb up at all.

Even if they rushed to more than 6,000 meters, they would fall because of engine failure.

People would probably be frozen to death.

So they could only watch the bomber group passing over their heads in despair.

However, there were also stubborn Japanese soldiers who climbed desperately.

But the ending that awaited them was, without exception, flameout and fall.

When the bomber group arrived above the target, the group followed the lead plane and began to drop bombs.

"Choo Choo Choo......"

As the door of the magazine opened, napalm bombs, white phosphorus bombs, incendiary bombs, etc. fell like raindrops.

Below the bomber group was naturally Tokyo's industrial area.

However, there were also residential areas mixed in the industrial area.

More than 100,000 people lived in this area.

Hundreds of bombers passed through this area.

Suddenly, a sea of fire rose below.

Napalm bombs, white phosphorus bombs and other incendiary bombs exploded.

Because Japan's residential areas are located in an earthquake zone, most of them are made of bamboo or wood.

Under the attack of various incendiary bombs, these houses were ignited in a short time.

Forming a raging flame like a prairie fire.

The sea of fire was filled with screams of fear, tragic shouts, and desperate cries for help.......

The industrial area in the residential area was not spared.

The bombs were not only incendiary bombs, but also some high-explosive bombs, all of which were 500 kg.

In the fierce and intensive explosions, the flames of the incendiary bombs were not extinguished by the fierce explosions.

On the contrary, under the impact of the air wave, the fire became more fierce.

Even a fire tornado formed in the sea of flames. The raging flames formed a prairie fire in a corner of Tokyo in just over ten minutes.
