Bombing Tokyo
Chapter 106:Bombing Tokyo
“I am sending orders that all warships be replaced with anti-personnel ammunition.”
“Attack the target Tokyo, ready to shoot.”
In the Third Fleet, all the muces in Tokyo Bay were aimed at Tokyo, and each gun was raised at an angle close to 20 degrees, enough to throw shells at all parts of Tokyo.
The three battleships, all aimed at the imperial palace area.
With the sound of the shelling order, the deafening sound of artillery rang throughout Tokyo Bay.
The roaring shells fell towards the city that was about to wake up.
The Imperial Palace, members of the Cabinet and the Meiji Emperor, are still discussing the timing of the Yokosuka attack.
At the moment when the main cannon roared on the sea, everyone reacted and immediately interrupted the royal meeting, and the Meiji Emperor withdrew to the safe house of the Imperial Palace under the protection of a large number of guards.
Other cabinet members followed suit.
The howling shells made everyone scalp, and when everyone was near the entrance of the underground ladder, a violent explosion resounded in the imperial court.
All the glass of the emperor's palace was instantly crushed, and the shock wave of amazing power was instantly pulled up many flowers and plants in the imperial palace.
Huge explosions and vibrations came, the whole earth was shaking, and the Meiji Emperor was going down the stairs, and at the moment of the explosion, a stumbling guard on the side could not hold it, so he rolled down from the stairs.
The faces of the people changed dramatically, and they could not bear to shell anything, they all rushed down the stairs, and the stairs above the royal palace of the imperial palace were not low, and when they ran down the stairs, they found the Meiji Emperor, who was covered with blood, lying on their backs under the stairs.
Gui Taro jumped on the door of his head and shouted, "Call the royal doctor and bring the emperor into the safe house."
The guards were busy, and the rumbling explosion outside, the violent vibrations made the lights in the whole safe house swing around, and the light was bright and dark.
The terrible sound of explosions and the tremor of explosions, the look on everyone's faces, became incomparably unsightly.
The terrible power of the guns, even if it is the carpet bombing of World War II, will be slightly inferior.
A single shell came down, hundreds of meters of life became extinct, houses were dumped, and terrible shock waves were enough to blow the wooden houses inside Tokyo to crush.
The fire brought about by the explosion of the anti-personnel ammunition, in the city of Tokyo, brought even more terrible fires.
The terrible fire of a fleet, all poured out in the city of Tokyo, except for the embassies of the various countries, and all the rest were caught in the fire.
In order to avoid diplomatic trouble, the Third Fleet avoided the embassy area in Tokyo, and in order to ensure that the embassy area was not accidentally injured, the artillery fire was as far away as possible from the nearby area.
It was at three or four o'clock in the morning that embassy personnel from various countries in the embassy area were awakened in the explosion.
U.S. Ambassador William, even the clothes are too late to wear, gallop to the window, open the curtains, what you see is the distant crazy explosion of the picture, high rolled up the fire, is the Japanese Imperial Palace.
This picture, imprinted in William's mind, a wave even spread to the embassy area, rolled up a lot of smoke and dust, heat wave, rushed to the surface.
The door was opened, and William's head did not return and said, "Prepare to go to the British Embassy at once."
The guard who had just come in turned and went out, but when William had just walked out of the room in a neat manner, he saw the British ambassador in a hurry.
In contrast to William, who was still in the mood to wear clothes, the British ambassador, Wilmington, did not seem to have the slightest gentlemanly manner at this moment.
There were no tuxedos, no politeness and civilized sticks, only a coat of arms on the body.
"Incompetent Japanese monkeys, with the British Empire's support, were beaten to Tokyo by a bunch of incompetent bastards."As soon as Wilmington saw William, he could not help scolding.
Japan is now called to Tokyo, and Wilmington is now thinking about maintaining a gentlemanly manner.
When he hurried to the U.S. Embassy, Wilmington had thought that the Japanese team must be finished, otherwise no one would attack Tokyo.
The deafening explosions outside, explosions and fires, shock waves, and countless screams, like the end-of-life scene.
"Mr. Wilmington, perhaps the situation is not as simple as you might think."William was well aware of the purpose of Wilmington's arrival, but he had a strong intuition in his heart that the shelling of Tokyo, and I'm afraid the Russian Navy, had no half-money relationship.
Because even if the Russian Navy beats the Japanese combined fleet, the most important thing to do is to go to Vladivostok, rather than abandoning Vladivostok to attack Tokyo.
Otherwise, the Russian Second Pacific Fleet will be homeless even if it defeats the Japanese combined fleet.
"Surely it's not that simple, stupid Japanese, one by one damn."Wilmington heard the words and lashed out again.
William heard the words and shook his head without saying anything, although he thought of Fan Yize for the first time at this moment, but it is difficult to say now that intuition can say nothing.
And this is William's biggest concern, if Fan Yize really directly intervened in the Russo-Japanese war, where should the United States stand, and what decision will the British make?
The ambassadors of the embassies in the region are not at peace of mind, but for the whole of Tokyo, it is no longer a source of inner peace.
The whole of Tokyo has been caught in a sea of fire, and the intensive explosions are still raging everywhere in the city.
Outside Tokyo Bay, not only the Third Fleet, but also the forts of the Imperial Odait Field participated in the shelling of Tokyo.
The 1st Brigade under the Guards Division was not stationed in Tokyo, but in response to the Russo-Japanese War, the 2nd Brigade and the Third Cavalry Brigade of the Guards Division, as well as the Field Heavy Artillery Brigade, were transferred to Korea.
Tokyo was shelled, and after the first brigade of the Guards responded, it was the first time to go in the direction of the Imperial Odao Field.
At this moment in Tokyo, the fire and explosion spread and sounded in every corner of the city, and the people who were lucky enough to escape were all heart-whancing.
Tokyo, covered by artillery fire, no one can approach, from the port of Tokyo to the Chiyoda area, the shells have no eyes, flying everywhere, the explosion of fire and flames will red the entire sky.
The smoke billowed, the crumbs flew, the pungent smell of smoke, the cries and screams, everywhere.
Fortunately, the population of Tokyo during this period was not very dense, and the outside of the city was still farmland.
The center of the attack is Tokyo’s most prosperous area, home to most of Japan’s elite.
