"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Tokyo Bay On the sea, the battleship German Expeditionary Fleet was firing fiercely. One after another, the shells roared and hit the Tokyo urban area.
At this moment, the urban area of Tokyo was already filled with smoke and dust and flames reaching into the sky. Even though it was broad daylight, the black smoke rising into the sky covered the sky, as if it was trying to block the sun's rays.
The bustling urban area of Tokyo is being turned into ruins bit by bit under the bombardment of German Expeditionary Fleet.
Even though Tokyo is the capital of Island Nation, the buildings here are no different from other places, and they are mainly made of wooden structures. This makes it very easy for these buildings to catch fire. The fire spread unbridled in the urban area of Tokyo, burning the city into ruins.
If a fire breaks out in normal times, a well-trained fire brigade can put out the fire as soon as possible. But now, everyone is running for their lives, and no one is going to put out the fire. Perhaps only Amaterasu Omikami knows what Tokyo will be burned into in the end.
"General, Tokyo is the largest city in Island Nation, and there are many urban areas outside the range of our main guns. It is probably impossible to completely destroy Tokyo." Rear Admiral Mauff said.
"Well, but being able to destroy most of Tokyo is already very good. I think our actions should have caused a great shock to the Island Nation people. They should now know how painful the price of offending Empire is. If they know the truth, they should accept the Empire's Conditions immediately!" Vice Admiral Spee said.
"General, what if Island Nation people continue to be stubborn?" Rear Admiral Mauff asked.
Vice Admiral Spee thought for a while, and a trace of determination flashed in his eyes. "If the Island Nation people are still stubborn! Then, I am afraid we will really have the title of Kitakami Killer King. At that time, I will order the destruction of all Island Nation coastal cities, regardless of size."
Vice Admiral Spee also doesn't want things to develop to that point. But if the Island Nation government is really obsessed with it, at that time, Vice Admiral Spee will have no other choice. After all, as a soldier of the German Empire, he must defend the interests of the Empire, even if he is captured and stigmatized for this, he will not hesitate.
"General, if that happens, a lot of Island Nation people may die!" Rear Admiral Mauff sighed.
"I can't care about that much anymore. It's better to let Island Nation people die a little more than Empire's interests being harmed!" Vice Admiral Spee said.
Rear Admiral Mauff nodded. "General, maybe we can choose to launch an attack on Island Nation's palace. In that case, the effect will probably be greater."
"Attack Island Nation people's palace?" Vice Admiral Spee frowned.
Previously, in order to prevent the contradiction between the two parties from developing into an irreconcilable point. Vice Admiral Spee always spared the Island Nation palace when formulating the bombardment plan. Because he has served in the East for a period of time, he knows what Emperor means in the minds of Island Nation people. If their shelling killed all Island Nation Emperor. Then, Island Nation and Germany are really fighting to the death.
"General, our bombardment has been going on for some time. I think Island Nation Emperor should find a safe place to hide! Even if we launch a bombardment on the Island Nation palace, it is impossible to hurt him. At most, it will only scare him." Rear Admiral Mauff continued.
"Okay, let's do this! Order all ships to shoot at Chiyoda Ward where the Island Nation palace is located." Vice Admiral Spee ordered.
"Yes, general!" Rear Admiral Mauff immediately conveyed Vice Admiral Spee's order.
Subsequently, the bombardment of several Battlecruisers was suspended for a few minutes. They re-planned the target of the bombardment. This time, these Battlecruiser directly targeted the location of the Island Nation palace.
"Fire!"
Following the gunner's command, these Battlecruiser fired fiercely again. The shells roared and hit Chiyoda Ward one after another.
"Boom!"
A cannonball fell into the Island Nation palace, blowing a rockery to pieces. The rocks scattered in all directions killed several people.
Immediately afterwards, more and more cannonballs fell into the palace, destroying all the buildings in the Island Nation palace. The servants and female officials in the palace fled in all directions. They were not qualified to enter the bomb-proof cave to hide, so they could only run around like headless flies. Whether they can escape or not depends on whether Amaterasu Omikami protects them.
Emperor Taisho, who was hiding in the bombproof cave, looked even pale.
"How dare they! How dare they launch artillery attacks on the palace?" Emperor Taisho roared angrily.
This kind of artillery shell exploded overhead, and the dust from the anti-cannon hole continued to fall, making him feel so disgraced that Emperor Taisho almost fainted. He felt how close death was to him at this time!
"Baga! Let Cabinet and Germany negotiate peacefully. We have given up and cannot continue fighting. Otherwise, I will be killed by them!" Emperor Taisho roared.
However, the attendants guarding him did not immediately obey his orders. They did not take Emperor Taisho's words seriously. Because they all know that Emperor Taisho cannot make the decision at all. The power of the country is in the hands of the elders and Cabinet.
Of course, they will report Emperor Taisho's requirements to Prime Minister Okuma Shigenobu who is also Home Minister as soon as possible.
In the bomb-proof cave where Yamagata Aritomo was hiding, when Yamagata Aritomo, Oyama Iwao, Oka Ichinosuke and others heard that the palace had also been bombarded, their faces changed drastically.
"Baga! Damn Germany people, they actually dare to bombard our palace. Are they going to fight us to death?" Oka Ichinosuke was furious.
"This time, we lost and can no longer fight. Since the Germany people dare to bombard our palace, it means that they dare to bombard all our coastal cities. We can't bear such losses!" Yamagata Aritomo said.
Oyama Iwao nodded aside.
The bomb-proof cave where Okuma Shigenobu, Matsukata Masayoshi, Inoue Kaoru and others were hiding. After they learned that the palace had been bombarded, they felt even more mournful.
"Germany is so arrogant and arrogant. He doesn't take Empire seriously at all. He actually dares to threaten His Majesty the Emperor's life and safety!" Matsukata Masayoshi was furious.
"Germany is the world's most powerful country. They have the capital not to take any country seriously!" Inoue Kaoru said.
"No matter what, this battle cannot continue. Even if we want Vengeance, we have to wait until we have stronger strength!" Okuma Shigenobu said.
