"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Explosions sounded in downtown Osaka, and the power of high-explosive bombs was clearly revealed at this moment. Every explosion of a large-caliber high-explosive bomb will have a serious impact on downtown Osaka.

Streets were destroyed, houses were reduced to rubble, and fires broke out. The entire city was shaking under the fierce gunfire. The power of the powerful weapons created by human industrial civilization is vividly demonstrated here.

"God! This is really spectacular!" Rear Admiral Mauff put down the telescope in his hand, looking fascinated. He seemed to really enjoy the feeling of blowing the enemy's city into rubble. The feeling seemed too beautiful to him.

"Yes, it is very spectacular. However, this is because it happened on the enemy's territory. If it had happened on our own territory, it would not be so spectacular, but it would be very bloody!" Vice Admiral Spee said.

"Can anyone launch such an attack on the German Empire? I don't think so. German Empire is the most powerful Empire in the world, no one. No one can bring the flames of war to our land!" Rear Admiral Mauff said.

Vice Admiral Spee nodded, seeming to agree with this statement. However, what they didn't know was that in another time and space, the flames of war also burned the land of Germany. Many parts of their country were bombed into rubble. It is unknown how many people were displaced and lost their lives during the war.

But, in this time and space. Germany people are lucky because they have a wise and powerful emperor who enables them to escape that fate. However, for other countries, this is undoubtedly unfortunate!

"Boom!"

A 380mm High-Explosive Shell fell into the crowd. The shell exploded and air waves swept around. Countless Island Nation people were suddenly blown up, just like fallen leaves in the autumn wind. More people were torn into pieces by shrapnel. The entire road seemed to have turned into a Shura hell in an instant. There was blood and broken limbs everywhere, making it look very bloody.

When the smoke cleared, a huge crater appeared on the road. Cries, howls and moans were everywhere. All this reveals how painful these Island Nation people are. However, this is all caused by their country. Can't blame anyone else.

Light Cruiser of German Expeditionary Fleet also joined the bombardment and began to bombard Osaka with 150mm Naval Gun.

Under the fierce bombardment of German Expeditionary Fleet, the city of Osaka is quickly turning into ruins.

The fire spread in the city, blown by the sea breeze. Houses with wooden structures are undoubtedly the best places for arson. The whole city seemed to be on fire.

"God! We set this city on fire!" Rear Admiral Mauff exclaimed.

"We don't know how many Island Nation people we killed right now!" Vice Admiral Spee sighed.

It took German Expeditionary Fleet a whole morning to completely destroy Osaka. After that, the fleet headed south to Kobe.

Perhaps because they heard about the tragic situation of Osaka, those Island Nation people in Kobe fled early one after another. When German Expeditionary Fleet arrived at Kobe, he found that there were not many Island Nation people left here. Those who were able to escape almost did so. The rest are almost all people who have nowhere to go.

German Expeditionary Fleet then launched an artillery bombardment. Island Nation people could escape, but the city could not escape. There is no escape from those buildings, especially those factories. Under the fierce bombardment of German Expeditionary Fleet, Kobe was also razed to the ground. However, the casualties caused by German Expeditionary Fleet to Island Nation people in Kobe are undoubtedly much smaller than the casualties caused by Osaka.

After destroying Osaka and Kobe, German Expeditionary Fleet swaggered away from Osaka Bay and entered Pacific Ocean through Kii Channel. After reuniting with the supply fleet, continue south and prepare to launch bombardment at the next destination.

After Island Nation Navy was solved by German Expeditionary Fleet, Island Nation no longer had any strength to stop Expeditionary Fleet. They could only watch helplessly as Expeditionary Fleet plundered their land. The only thing they can do is to let the coastal people evacuate to avoid danger.

Island Nation's Prime Minister's Office, Okuma Shigenobu looked livid. Subordinate officials were reporting the damage to him.

"Prime Minister, Osaka and Kobe have been completely destroyed. The two places have been bombed into ruins. Empire's factory there has been extremely damaged. Big blow, very heavy losses! In addition, at least 30,000 people in Osaka were killed in the bombardment of Germany. The casualties in Kobe were smaller, but there were also two to three thousand people."

"I know!" Okuma Shigenobu Prime Minister replied painfully.

Two more important cities were destroyed, which was undoubtedly a heavy blow to Island Nation. And, this is just the beginning. German Expeditionary Fleet's bombardment will definitely continue. No one knows how many cities will eventually be destroyed by the Germany people, and how many people will die from the bombardment of the Germany people. But what is certain is that Island Nation will be hit hard by this.

If Okuma Shigenobu could make the decision, he would definitely order and agree to Germany's conditions without hesitation. In this case, Island Nation can be protected from greater harm. But unfortunately, although he is named Prime Minister, his actual power is in the hands of the elders and the military. With the army and navy united, no one is willing to listen to what Prime Minister says.

"Amaterasu Omikami! Please protect Island Nation, who is in trouble!" Okuma Shigenobu prayed secretly.

On August 16, German Expeditionary Fleet launched an artillery bombardment against Kyushu Island's Kumamoto, reducing the city to rubble.

On August 17, German Expeditionary Fleet attacked Fukuoka and Kitakyushu. These two big cities were also destroyed during the bombardment.

A large number of Island Nation people died in the shelling. A large number of factories were destroyed, which severely damaged the industrialization of Island Nation.

Although, many Island Nation people followed the government's advice this time, left their homes and fled to the countryside or mountainous areas. However, most places in Island Nation are close to the sea. All the people fled to the mountains, and the food problem alone was enough to overwhelm the Island Nation government. Most Island Nation people are not rich. They don't have much food at all. This makes it inevitable that many social problems will arise after they run out of food.

This is a complete disaster for the current Island Nation.
