Chapter 1245 Friends and Vicious Dogs

"Imperial Marshal, you mean... we don't need to warn the Japanese?" Adolf Hitler was a little confused about Hersman's attitude, "Japan is our friend after all, right?"

"Friend?" Hersman smiled coldly, "Aren't the Japanese friends who are preventing us from entering the Asia-Pacific region now?"

Germany is not very interested in Southeast Asia and East Asia, but wants to take Australia and New Zealand, but Japan has been trying to prevent Germany from entering the Asia-Pacific. It also "let" the United States strengthen Australia and New Zealand on a large scale. In the eyes of the German Wehrmacht General Staff, this is betrayal.

So Hersman's disgust with Japan is entirely the will of the Wehrmacht. And the Nazi Party is the same as the Wehrmacht in this regard, and they are very annoyed by Japan's indulgence in the so-called "Australia and New Zealand Free Fortress".

"And," Hersman smiled, "Japan is a friend, but China is not a friend?"

Although China gradually became a Soviet country in the second half of the 1930s. But before that, it had a very good relationship with Germany, and after the Soviet-German war, China did not follow the Soviet Union to declare war on Germany, and the relationship between the two sides was at least maintained on the surface. Now they are far away, and there is Japan blocking them, so they can only be friends and not enemies.

"They are friends too," Hitler spread his hands, "but they don't have much presence."

"It's better to have no presence," Hersman snorted coldly, "The Japanese have too strong a presence, and they always like to act recklessly, which is a headache."

In the eyes of the people in the German General Staff, the Japanese encountered attacks from China and the Soviet Union on the mainland, and were defeated on the battlefield in Northeast Asia. The rule of the Indochina Peninsula (which also borders China) is also in crisis - Japan has deployed hundreds of thousands of land forces in the Indochina Peninsula. If the Chinese and Soviet armies really want to fight hard, it is estimated that they will not be able to defend it! However, the Chinese and Soviet armies have never taken action in the direction of Southeast Asia, and they are obviously unwilling to let Germany take advantage of the collapse of Japan's rule in Southeast Asia to restore the colonies of Britain and the Netherlands.

For China, the Japanese Empire is both an enemy and a barrier, and it is also a chain connecting the friendship between the two sides of the Pacific. If there is no Japan, which is a hateful existence, the American boss will not give both machines and arms.

For Germany, Japan's ideal position is to be stuck between China, the Soviet Union, Australia, New Zealand and the United States, and to prevent these three parties from uniting. So the more hatred it has with these three parties, the better. The greater the contradiction between Japan and China, the Soviet Union, the United States, and Australia, the lower its sense of security, the deeper its dependence on the United States of Europe, and finally it can only become a vicious dog of the United States of Europe in the Pacific.

However, after Hersmann left Hitler's office to check the Victory Day parade to be held on the 28th. Hitler called Ribbentrop, who was attending the peace conference in Rome, and asked Ribbentrop to reveal the intelligence that the United States was preparing to bomb Tokyo with biological weapons to Lieutenant General Hiroshi Oshima, the head of the Japanese delegation.

...

"No, not from the Korean Peninsula and Vladivostok."

The White House Cabinet Military Conference is now discussing the use of biological weapons to attack the Japanese capital Tokyo. After Truman proposed this idea, General Arnold, commander of the Army Air Force, immediately proposed a tactic of sending B-17 bombers from the airports of the Korean Peninsula and Vladivostok to attack Tokyo at night. This is a familiar tactic. From July 1944 to the present, B-17 bombers deployed in the Soviet Union, China and the Korean Peninsula have bombed Japan two or three hundred times. The Chinese, American and Soviet pilots flying B-17s can find the location of Tokyo at night with their eyes closed. Moreover, the United States has long sent plague bacteria ceramic bombs and anthrax bombs to China and the Soviet Union, and helped them build biological factories to produce plague fleas and anthrax.

So as long as an order is issued, the Japanese capital Tokyo will suffer!

However, Truman chose to go far away today, because he used biological weapons to bomb Tokyo for another purpose, which was to kill the chicken to scare the monkey.

"Send B-29C from Oahu," Truman ordered, "and land at the airport in Vladivostok after completing the bombing mission."

The B-29C is an extended-range model of the B-29, equipped with an R-3350 "Double Cyclone" 18-cylinder, dual-exhaust, cooled engine. Without the use of the afterburner system, the maximum output power is as high as 2,500 horsepower. The B-29C, which is equipped with four R-3350 engines and has undergone a certain amount of weight reduction, has a maximum combat range of 7,500 kilometers - this is a range with combat value, not a maximum range achieved purely in testing.

Such a large combat range is naturally the ultimate killer prepared to counterattack Europe with bacterial weapons. As early as 1944, this extended-range B-29 was a key project of the US aviation industry. In addition to the B-29C, there was also an XB-44 project (later renamed B-29D). However, the B-29C was born at the wrong time. The Atlantic battlefield ceased fighting before it could show its prowess over Europe. Moreover, the Germans did not use the terrible "200,000-ton equivalent" atomic bomb to bomb major cities in the United States, so the Americans would not ask for trouble by sending the B-29C to Europe to stir up hatred.

"We should let the Germans know that we have a killer weapon like the B-29C!" Truman said, "This will be beneficial to the ongoing peace negotiations."

"I see, Mr. President." Admiral Arnold thought for a moment, "There are already two squadrons of B-29Cs that can be used for combat, and there are runways on Oahu for B-29Cs to take off and land."

There are F-13 early warning aircraft stationed on Oahu, which are also modified from B-29s, so there are naturally runways on the island for B-29Cs to take off and land. In addition, the Soviet Red Air Force airport in Vladivostok is also very large, where not only F-13 early warning aircraft are deployed, but also C-69 long-range transport aircraft are required to take off and land. So it is not difficult to fly from Oahu to Vladivostok and drop some germ bombs in Tokyo in the middle.

As for finding Tokyo, it is not a problem either, because the US military has already built super-large Lorenz beam base stations in Pyongyang and Vladivostok in the north of the Korean Peninsula (the Lorenz beam system is used to guide aircraft landing. Civilian versions were sold to Britain and the United States before the war, so Britain and the United States also developed a military "X-direction beacon system"), which can generate X-intersecting Lorenz beams towards Tokyo. As long as the US bombers use instruments to fly near Tokyo, turn on the radio and tune to a specific frequency, they can receive the Lorenz beams sent from Pyongyang or Vladivostok, and then fly north or northwest along the beam. When another beam is received, Tokyo is there.

"Mr. Prime Minister, Mr. Prime Minister! Wake up quickly! "Yamamoto Isoroku was hastily and abruptly awakened from his drowsy sleep. This prime minister and great contributor to the Japanese Empire was often awakened from his sleep by his secretary these days, and then he had to face all kinds of bad things that happened suddenly. Either a fleet loaded with various precious materials was besieged by the enemy's "wolf pack" and suffered heavy losses! Or the Chinese on the Korean Peninsula launched a tidal attack!

Or the garrisons in Vietnam and Myanmar reported frightening news again - these news were later proved to be false news without exception, but Yamamoto still did not dare to neglect it. Whenever the Annan Garrison Army (this is the latest general army established by the Japanese Army, responsible for the defense of the Indochina Peninsula The main enemy is the Chinese Red Army) and if there is an urgent message, Yamamoto's secretary will report it immediately. No matter if Yamamoto is sleeping or exercising with his wife, he must stop immediately to deal with urgent military affairs!

And tonight, when Yamamoto was woken up by his secretary, he was sleeping alone on the tatami in the bedroom of the Prime Minister's official residence. He yawned and sat up from the tatami. It took him dozens of seconds to fully wake up and make sure it was not a nightmare. He fumbled for his glasses and put them on, and saw his secretary and Army Minister Anami Korechika kneeling in front of his couch. The secretary's face was already a little livid, and beads of sweat kept rolling down Anami Korechi's face. It was obvious that something big had happened.

"Is it... Did the Chinese attack the Annan Army? "Yamamoto Isoroku asked with a trembling voice.

The situation on the Korean Peninsula is now deteriorating, but the impact on the Japanese Empire is not the most fatal. What can really kill the Japanese Empire is the fall of the Indochina Peninsula... That piece of land is much larger than the Korean Peninsula, and it is the hope of the Japanese Empire in the future. If it is taken away by the Chinese, then the future of the empire will be gone!

"No, no." Anami Korechika shook his head repeatedly, "Tokyo is going to be hit by a large air raid."

Yamamoto was greatly relieved when he heard the news. Tokyo has been bombed for more than one or two days, but the fighting will of the Japanese people has not diminished at all, so there is nothing to worry about.

However, just as Yamamoto breathed a sigh of relief, Anami Korechika hurriedly added: "This time the enemy is going to throw plague bacteria bombs and anthrax bombs!"

"What...what!" Yamamoto Isoroku jumped up, "Anami-kun, are you serious? "

Anami nodded: "It was a message sent by Vice Admiral Oshima of Rome in a secret message... It is said that it was told by German Foreign Minister Ribbentrop himself! The Americans want to destroy Tokyo with biological weapons!"

Yamamoto Isoroku took a breath of cold air. He knew that the Americans could do such a thing, because they used submarines to launch biological rockets to attack the Japanese coast as early as last year.

"Do you know what day it is?" Yamamoto asked hurriedly.

"I don't know." Anami replied, "I don't know what day it is... But it is certain that the bombing of biological weapons will begin soon."

"Baga!" Yamamoto Isoroku cursed, "The war is about to end, why don't these American devils give up? Do they really want to destroy my Great Japanese Empire before they are satisfied?"
