#271 - There are no innocent people under the fuel-air bomb
"Tom, did you see that goddamn Nagasaki? Oh, my God, I'm going to throw up," Captain Hyles, the pilot of a Rogue Eagle reconnaissance plane, complained to the observer beside him as the vast ocean seemed to stretch endlessly.
They had departed from Luan Airport, ordered to carry out a reconnaissance mission over Nagasaki on the Japanese mainland, with specific timing and location requirements. They were to send a telegram to the rear after reaching Nagasaki and then circle overhead for more than ten minutes.
"Hey, Hyles, if this damn theodolite isn't wrong, we'll see land soon. Oh, I see it already. Let me check the current position: 129 degrees 53 minutes XX seconds east longitude, 32 degrees 45 minutes XX seconds north latitude. No problem, we're almost there. Hey, Ross, you can send the telegram now that we've arrived. I don't want to spend more than ten minutes over Nagasaki under the Japanese air force and anti-aircraft fire. Sending it now is just in time." Captain Tom looked at the increasingly distinct outline of the island ahead, becoming more and more certain that his judgment was correct.
"Okay, boss, you're the boss." Ross, the telegraph operator not far away, didn't delay at all, and quickly sent out the telegram with a series of beeps. The radio waves traveled across the vast sea and were soon received by several attentive radio stations on the same frequency.
The southernmost tip of the Shandong Peninsula.
Tao Ruihao, who had been listening with headphones, received the signal, his heart racing. He closed his eyes, carefully listening to the Morse code signal while quickly making notes with a pen. After the signal was repeated three times, Tao Ruihao opened his eyes, translated the message, and looked up at Liu Jingwen beside him.
"Captain, the observation post is in position!"
Liu Jingwen nodded upon hearing this, looking towards the east, hundreds of kilometers away. His expression showed some regret that he couldn't personally witness the effect of what he had done.
However, he didn't delay too long, waving his hand and ordering, "Ignite!"
Almost simultaneously, five rockets that were already prepared and ready to launch erupted with flames. As the flames grew larger, the enormous thrust began to propel the Dongfeng Express IA enhanced version into the air, turning towards the predetermined target after rising to several thousand meters.
"I hope this gift can bring back a little bit of interest," Liu Jingwen muttered to himself, watching the disappearing rocket.
In his middle age, his eyes were actually a little moist. Not many people knew that Liu Jingwen's family had died in a Japanese bombing, their remains never found.
But now, which family didn't have a few blood debts left by the Japanese?
They, these scientific researchers, were forced into becoming 007 steel research warriors, all just hoping that one day they could personally repay a little bit of the blood debt. Today, Liu Jingwen had done it.
Although he didn't yet know the final effect, Liu Jingwen had seen the results of small-scale cloud explosion bomb tests. A cloud explosion bomb launched from a rocket launcher could turn a lamb within a diameter of more than ten meters into unusable scrap.
The Dongfeng Express was carrying a massive one-ton behemoth.
Nagasaki. The Rogue Eagle reconnaissance plane finally arrived, but at an altitude of over three thousand meters. The Japanese on the ground sounded the air raid siren, the piercing alarm echoing throughout the city.
"Matsushita-kun, it's nothing, just a high-altitude reconnaissance plane," someone said, looking at the sky at the Rogue Eagle reconnaissance plane, which looked no bigger than a sparrow, instantly relaxing.
"We don't even need to go to the air raid shelter."
"Takeshita-kun, you can't say that. Maybe the Allied bomber group is still behind," someone retorted.
"So what? I'm not going to bother anymore. Let these days be destroyed if they want to be destroyed. They keep telling us about constant victories, but what's the result? We've won so much that the war has spread to our own homes. Can't these damn guys stop lining their own pockets and seriously manage the occupied territories?"
The middle-aged Japanese man named Takeshita complained.
However, it was useless. Some people panicked and went to take shelter, leaving him with some Japanese who had no expectations for the future.
"Tom, what exactly does headquarters want us to see? What's so interesting about these Japanese shacks?" Captain Hyles, the pilot, asked as he began to put the reconnaissance plane into a circling pattern.
"I don't know either, Hyles. Just do as you're told. We'll retreat after circling for ten more minutes at most. Wait, what's that?" Tom glanced west unintentionally and noticed several things like shooting stars rapidly approaching their direction.
Hearing Tom's shout, Hyles and Ross turned their heads to look west together. Sure enough, there were several fire-breathing things like shooting stars over there.
"It's a rocket, I know it's a rocket," Hyles shouted. "I've seen this kind of rocket used to attack the Germans on the European battlefield. I didn't expect to see its actual effect today. It's just that we've used this thing a lot. Why do we still need to observe it?"
"Maybe there's something different about it. It's just that we don't seem to have a military base in the west. Why would it be launched from there? If we launched it ourselves, shouldn't it come from the south?" Tom also didn't understand, muttering to himself.
"Who cares? Today, it seems this is the last show. Hey guys, let's film the landing effect of this rocket and then return," Hyles didn't care about these things. For him, it was more important to leave here as soon as possible.
Although reconnaissance planes also have defensive machine guns, they can't be the same as fighter planes.
The requirements of long range limit the flexibility of combat characteristics.
Hyles didn't dwell on these incomprehensible things. He watched the red lines constantly approaching the city, grinning and saying, "It seems the Japanese are going to have a hard time this time. It is said that the warhead of this thing weighs one ton of TNT. When it falls in the city, several buildings will be gone."
They had never seen such a terrifying bomb.
"Did you film it? Did you film this explosion scene?" Hyles swallowed, trembling slightly.
"I forgot," Tom muttered.
But soon he came back to his senses and frantically started taking pictures with the reconnaissance plane's photographic equipment, because then the second rocket, the third rocket... one by one landed and exploded into terrifying mushroom clouds.
These scenes were faithfully recorded by the camera.
Hyles and the others had no concept of cloud explosion bombs at all. In the previous world, there had never been such a terrifying weapon.
Technically speaking, when a cloud explosion bomb is detonated by a special fuse, the fuel in the bomb body is evenly dispersed in the air and fully mixed with the air to form a suspended aerosol, and gathers to form coverage over the target, shaped like a thick fog.
When the aerosol reaches a certain concentration, the fuse will detonate a second time in the air, and the entire fog group will explode, instantly releasing a large amount of heat energy, forming a high-temperature and high-pressure fireball, its temperature usually around 2500 ℃, and rapidly expanding at a speed of 2000 to 2500 meters per second. This explosion will form a certain oxygen-deficient area within the range of action, suffocating personnel hiding in shelters, bunkers, and caves, while its shock wave will also cause devastating blows to the internal organs of personnel on the ground.
In other words, in a place covered by a cloud explosion bomb, it doesn't matter whether you are in a shelter or not. The outcome is either being completely destroyed or retaining a complete body and dying.

According to this time's separate strikes by 5 cloud explosion bombs, almost half of the Japanese Nagasaki was ignited.
This one-time strike effect was so strong that it completely shocked the returning Hyles and his crew.
After briefly reporting the effect of the attack on Nagasaki by telegram, they confirmed that their troops did not have such a terrifying weapon of mass destruction.
After witnessing the tragic situation of the Japanese, the three of them couldn't imagine what it would be like if this thing fell on their own country's cities.
"We can retreat now. All rockets hit the target. Comrades, tell everyone the good news. We just directly destroyed half of a Japanese city! At least a city as big as Taiyuan!" Liu Jingwen was overjoyed and choked with emotion as he loudly reported this good news to everyone!
A sense of great revenge rose from his chest, making Liu Jingwen feel particularly energetic.
"Well done! Well done!" The group was silent for a while, and then broke out, many people like Liu Jingwen were overjoyed and wept. For them, this was the first time to liquidate the Japanese mainland.
Therefore, this pleasure of revenge is far from being as simple as attacking a Japanese airport.
Once upon a time, everyone thought that the Japanese were invincible and could not be shaken, but today!
They personally destroyed half of a Japanese city!
And it was a big city, comparable to a big city like Taiyuan!
What a great progress this is. From today, they can also have the ability to directly retaliate against the Japanese mainland!
And this is just the first step in revenge!
Half a city is just a little bit of interest.
How could it be possible to collect only such a small amount of interest in the future liquidation?
"Succeeded?" Ren Zhong received the news, but he didn't have so many feelings. He just wanted to try it, but he didn't expect that the trial would directly destroy half of the Japanese city by cloud explosion bombs and derived fires.
This result is somewhat too powerful. In this way, the necessity of a peace egg is not so strong.
Now the cloud explosion bomb in his hand, in terms of effect, even exceeds the effect of the Little Boy in the original main world's historical time and space of the Rogue Eagle.
Of course, this is because the secondary disaster caused by the cloud explosion bomb's fire is much stronger than the Little Boy. The Japanese cities happen to have a lot of wood, and the construction is dense, so it is too easy to ignite in the high-temperature environment of the cloud explosion bomb.
Next, waiting for the advent of Dongfeng II, Ren Zhong felt that he could start a massacre on the Japanese mainland.
There are no innocent souls under the peace egg, and there will be no innocent Japanese under the cloud explosion bomb!
