The Rise of the Third Reich
Chapter 941 Bacteriological Warfare - Pandora's Box (Fourth Update)
"Onboard! We have broken into the airspace of the United States! We are now in the sky of the United States, and we have no regrets even if we die!"
At 5:31 a.m. Western Time on December 25, 1943, a Me264 long-range bomber piloted by Tokugawa Yoshitoshi and Hayashi Yaichiro carrying 50 ceramic bacterial bombs broke into the Santa Monica Bay near Los Angeles. into U.S. airspace.
Because the ceramic bacterial bombs on this plane were filled with fleas that had sucked the blood of plague-infected rats, the targets were the suburbs of big cities—the suburbs of Los Angeles were their first target.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Groups of fire burst out in the sky near the Me264 bomber. This was the 127mm anti-aircraft gun on the ground firing. Although the sky is very dark now, the American anti-aircraft artillery relying on radar guidance can still find a general direction in the sky, but Tokugawa Yoshitoshi's plane was not hit.
"Your Excellency, Division Commander, we should be looking in the right direction." Taro Sato, who was in charge of the navigation, loudly said to Tokugawa Yoshitoshi, "The anti-aircraft firepower below is very fierce. Los Angeles must be nearby!"
"Bless the Great God Amaterasu, bless the Great Power Tosho!" Tokugawa Yoshitoshi prayed silently in his heart, and his nervousness relaxed a little.
Los Angeles is nearby and the work is finally done!
"Can you determine the direction of the city center?" Tokugawa Yoshitoshi asked again after finishing his prayer.
"It's too dark down there, so I can't see clearly." Taro Sato replied.
The current United States is no longer in a state of peace before December 7, 1941. The war has lasted for two years, and the entire country has entered a state of peace. Therefore, after the radar of the "Destroyer Warning Line" detected the approach of Japanese aircraft, all cities and towns in California sounded the air defense siren.
People who heard the air raid siren also immediately got into the strong air raid shelters - these air raid shelters were first built when the Hawaiian Islands fell. In early 1943, after Japan began to attack the United States with sailboat bombs, the construction project was immediately Speed up. By December 1943, the air raid shelters owned by the West Coast states could hide all civilians and soldiers underground.
Therefore, if the Japanese used ordinary bombs or white phosphorus incendiary bombs to bomb the West Coast of the United States, it would be almost impossible to cause any serious casualties.
Ceramic bacteriological bombs are indeed the only method that can drive Americans into panic... Of course, the sequelae of this method are also very obvious.
"Boom!"
Just when Tokugawa Yoshitoshi was thinking about releasing the inhumane plague germ into the center of America's big cities, his plane began to shake violently with a loud noise, accompanied by a howling cold wind. The air pressure in the cabin also dropped suddenly, making breathing very difficult.
"Division commander, we have been hit!" Navigator Taro Sato shouted.
"Baga!" Tokugawa Yoshitoshi also shouted, "Put on your oxygen mask and prepare to drop the bomb! Mr. Lin, you must stabilize the plane no matter what!"
The plane cannot crash now, otherwise it may cause a fire and kill His Majesty the Emperor's heroic fleas!
"Hai!" Hayashi Yaichiro agreed, put on the oxygen mask, and tried hard to control the plane - the damage to the plane was not serious, it was probably shrapnel that penetrated the cabin.
But when they were training in Germany, the German instructors told them that the American large-caliber anti-aircraft artillery system was the same as the German one, with radar fire control and radio proximity fuses. The combination of the two can pose a greater threat to aircraft with an altitude of less than 11,500 meters, and once the aircraft is hit by anti-aircraft artillery shrapnel, it is basically certain that the radar fire control is locked, and the altitude must be raised immediately... But now, Hayashi Yaichiro cannot pull it up immediately because the ceramic bacterial bomb has not yet been released.
"Prepare to drop the bomb, release!" Taro Sato, who was in charge of dropping the bomb, did not let Yaichiro Hayashi wait too long. Less than a minute after the plane was hit by a bomb for the first time, he pressed the bomb release button and dropped 50 evil ceramic bacterial bombs. On the land of the Los Angeles suburbs of the United States - actually on the land of Hollywood. The hundreds of thousands of fleas contained in these ceramic bacterial bombs later served His Majesty the Emperor so much that there was even a flea shrine in the Yasukuni Shrine!
However, just after these delays, another deadly American anti-aircraft shell exploded less than 15 meters away from the right side of the aircraft fuselage. The huge explosion shock wave carried sharp shrapnel from the fuselage and right side of the Me264 bomber. Sweeping across the side wing. A BMW-802 engine caught fire on the spot and emitted thick black smoke.
"Your Excellency, Lieutenant General," Hayashi Yaichiro glanced at the burning engine, "One engine caught fire, and there may be fuel leakage. We are afraid that we will not be able to fly back to the Hawaiian Islands!"
This time I will really become a god!
One of the four engines was destroyed and there was a fuel leak, which was almost a death sentence for those on board.
However, the method of death is still important. As a samurai of His Majesty the Emperor and the head of the Shimizu Tokugawa family, of course you should not be afraid of death. The only thing he should do at this time is to order Hayashi Yaichiro to fly the plane and bravely crash into the American buildings on the ground, trying to drag a few more Americans to his back before he dies...
Thinking of this, Tokugawa Yoshitoshi took out the handkerchief produced by Kyoto Nishijin with his trembling right hand, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead that could not be suppressed, and the order that should have been the duty of the samurai family could not be issued. mouth.
"Dive to extinguish the fire, and then evacuate!" Tokugawa Yoshitoshi held it in for a long time and finally came up with an order that surprised both Hayashi Yaichiro and Sato Taro.
"Your Excellency, Division Commander..." Yaichiro Hayashi wanted to tell Tokugawa that the current condition of the aircraft was such that it would be difficult to insist on returning to the Hawaiian Islands.
"Baga, dive quickly!" Tokugawa Yoshitoshi interrupted him without hesitation, "The plane is not finished yet. As long as we fly to the waters near the Hawaiian Islands and parachute, the rescue seaplane can find us."
Now the Japanese Navy has realized the value of veteran pilots, so it firmly opposes not carrying parachutes, and has also organized a special seaplane search and rescue team.
Tokugawa Yoshitoshi, Hayashi Yaichiro and others have also developed a good habit of carrying parachutes on planes because they have received training in Germany. In theory, as long as they fly the plane to a range of 1,500 kilometers from the Hawaiian Islands to parachute, and send a distress telegram before parachuting, the navy stationed in the Hawaiian Islands will send seaplanes to conduct search and rescue. Although finding a few fallen pilots in the vast sea is about as difficult as looking for a needle, the possibility of finding them still exists.
…
"What? There are almost no reports of casualties and property losses?" At 8 a.m. on December 25, Lieutenant General Doolittle, commander of the U.S. Army's 4th Air Force, was stunned for a moment after listening to the report, "Oh, I really didn't expect that. The guys in the anti-aircraft artillery unit are so outstanding..."
"No, our anti-aircraft artillery did not shoot down all the invading Japanese aircraft, and our fighter jets also failed to do this." Brigadier General Chennault looked at the report sent by his subordinates with some confusion, "The total number of kills currently counted is 30 There are about 40 targets detected by the radar.”
"Ten of them slipped through the net?" Durant shrugged. "Maybe the Japanese pilots didn't know how to drop bombs at all, so they threw their bombs into the wilderness."
Chennault shook his head and frowned and said: "Lieutenant General, I am not that optimistic... We have been fighting the Japanese for two years and have not beaten them to the ground yet. This can only fully prove that the Japanese will never defeat them." madness."
He paused and then said: "According to reports, these Japanese planes caused almost no property damage... It is normal that they did not cause any personnel losses. After all, non-combatants hid underground when the air strikes came. But even the houses It didn’t blow up much, which is really unusual, unless the Japanese dropped some ordinary bombs!”
"Not an ordinary bomb?" Durant frowned, "What is that? A chemical weapon? Or... a bacterial weapon?"
It is not surprising that Durant and Chennault guessed the answer right away, because the United States has long known that Germany possesses a large number of chemical weapons (this is an open secret, because Germany used a large number of chemical weapons in World War I), so Since the war, the U.S. military has regarded chemical defense and countermeasures against chemical weapons as an important issue.
In terms of chemical defense, not only are all officers and soldiers issued gas masks (the same is true for the German army), but even ordinary residents in cities that are likely to be attacked by enemy air attacks are equipped with a gas mask.
In addition, chemical defense forces have also been heavily trained and all active military personnel, regardless of their branch of arms, have mastered certain chemical defense knowledge.
In terms of countermeasures, the United States itself has produced a large number of chemical poisons and bacterial weapons. Like Japan, the United States has not ratified the Geneva Protocol prohibiting the use of biological and chemical weapons. Therefore, the United States produced and stored a large amount of mustard gas during the interwar period, and produced a large amount of mustard gas after the outbreak of the World War. The current inventory has reached tens of thousands of tons!
In addition, after the fall of the British mainland, the United States obtained samples and production methods of British anthrax spores and botulinum toxin from Canada. In the past half year, American pharmaceutical companies have been producing large quantities of Bacillus anthracis spores and Botulinum toxin (Botulinum toxin is not only used for cosmetic purposes, but is actually a highly toxic substance that can be ingested or inhaled by people. can damage the nervous system and has an extremely high mortality rate).
Therefore, the number of chemical and biological weapons currently possessed by the U.S. government far exceeds that of Japan.
In the original history, the United States planned to use mustard gas when attacking Japan after the Battle of Okinawa, but later gave up mustard gas because of the availability of more powerful atomic bombs.
