Chapter 723
The shogunate was in trouble.
In the Toyo Island, in the shogunate’s residence.
Looking at the disaster information that was continuously submitted.
As the shogun, Oda Kiyono felt his heart bleeding at this moment!
The continuous bad news made it overwhelmed, and it subconsciously developed a fear of emergency information.
Because all the information that could be reported to it was a large-scale disaster with heavy casualties and extremely serious consequences.
But as the actual controller of Toyo, Oda Kiyono had to suppress his irritability and resentment and deal with these things head on.
“General.”
“The Director of the Meteorological Agency, Masao Kikuta, is here to report on his work.”
After hearing what his secretary Murakamida Sho said, Oda Kiyono said without even raising his head: “Let it in.”
A moment later, Masao Kikuta, holding an umbrella, hurried over.
Oda Kiyono sat at his desk with a gloomy face, staring at it.
As early as three days ago, it gave a death order to Masao Kikuta, the Director of the Meteorological Agency.
It was required to investigate the source of the heavy rain that lasted for more than 20 days within three days.
Is it a rare natural disaster that occurs once in a century, or is it artificially manipulated by other national forces behind it?
This question is extremely important to the East, and Oda Kiyono must figure it out!
“Kikuta-kun, have you found out?”
Faced with Oda Kiyono’s question, Kikuta Masao quickly bent over and stuck out his butt:
“Report to the general.”
“After our meteorological department and the military conducted in-depth investigations in various places, we found that.”
“No traces of artificial rainfall intervention were found, and the formation of magnetic field clouds in various places also met the natural meteorological conditions.”
“And the radar system of the Self-Defense Forces has never found any rain-making missiles launched into the East.”
After hearing Kikuta Masao’s report, Oda Kiyono’s tightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed a little.
The most uneasy boulder in his heart was finally put down temporarily.
This is the best good news Oda Kiyono has heard since the heavy rain lasted for nearly 20 days.
Because compared to the natural meteorological disasters that are rare in a century.
What Oda Kiyono fears most is that other countries have developed meteorological weapons that can control rainfall.
No matter how rare natural disasters are, you just have to grit your teeth and get through it.
It’s no big deal if some people die. We’ve gotten used to it over the years.
After all… with their hellish geographical location, the East can be said to have perfectly collected all the natural disaster summoning cards.
Because the East is located at the intersection of the Pacific Ring of Fire and four different plates.
These plates will constantly rub and collide with each other, causing large-scale earthquakes and tsunamis.
This also leads to earthquakes and tsunamis in the East every other day, and typhoons will plow through from beginning to end from time to time.
After being tortured by natural disasters for so many years, passed down from generation to generation, the East has long been accustomed to it.
But if other countries master meteorological weapons that can control rainfall, for example, they will give the East a wave from time to time.
Then this kind of rainstorm can be created at any time, and it can rain as long as you want.
It can also create floods, mudslides, reservoir dams bursting, seriously affecting agricultural production, and destroying infrastructure.
Even in extreme cases, continuous natural disasters can be used to weaken the national strength and social stability of the East.
Then this is simply a catastrophe for the East, even more terrible than mushroom bombs!
Although the geographical environment of the East has made it a regular customer of natural disasters.
But at least, those are uncontrollable natural forces, and there will always be a time to stop.
Artificial meteorological weapons are completely different. It means that hostile countries can selectively exert pressure on the East.
Even in the absence of direct military conflict, the purpose of war can be achieved quietly.
The war form of meteorological weapons is more concealed and more difficult to prevent than traditional military confrontation!
At least with the current national strength of the East, there is no response at all.
I don’t know who hit me, who can I take revenge on?
Therefore, this is also the main reason why Oda Kiyono, who was in a state of panic, felt a little relieved when he heard Kikuta Masao report that there was no sign of the use of meteorological weapons.
At least for now, Japan is still facing natural disasters.
Although equally cruel and merciless, it is at least easier to predict and deal with than the disasters created by human operators.
However…
Oda Kiyono, who is cautious and suspicious by nature.
He will not completely dispel his suspicions just by Kikuta Masao’s report.
After pondering for a moment, it immediately ordered with a serious face:
“You guys, don’t let down your guard at all.”
“Always keep a close watch to prevent other countries from using meteorological weapons against our Great East Ocean!”
Hearing this, Kikuta Masao immediately bent over and stuck out his butt: “Hi!”
At the same time…
In Longguo, Central Theater, Operations Command.
Su Mo, who carries the rank of major general, is gathering with several senior generals including Chief Zhao, Political Commissar Lei, Chief of Staff Zheng, and Deputy Chief Wu.
In the entire operations command room, the lowest-level officers are colonels with two bars and four stars.
Obviously, a high-level secret meeting is being held at this time.
On the front wall of the combat command room, there is an ultra-high-definition electronic screen that is larger than the giant screen hall of a cinema.
The real-time screen content on it is the disaster-stricken area of Dongyang Island transmitted through satellite monitoring.
Because there is a 0.5nm quantum lithography machine and the world’s most advanced 0.5nm Kunpeng chip as technical support.
Therefore, Longguo’s satellite sensors and imaging technology have all been updated and upgraded.
The current optical imaging accuracy can clearly capture every detail of the blue planet Earth.
Even a leaf in a storm can be clearly and completely recorded.
If the focal length is pulled to the highest, the small stones on the ground are clearly visible!
And the ultra-high-definition electronic screen in front of us shows the real-time disaster scene in Xiaodongyang.
The picture shows floods, and the surging water is like a wild horse running away, rushing against everything.
The originally prosperous streets have now turned into a vast ocean, floating with broken furniture, vehicles and debris.
The roads were also destroyed beyond recognition by the floods, and huge cracks were like hideous wounds, stretching across the land.
Some sections of the road even collapsed completely, leaving only bottomless pits, which looked daunting!
Countless houses and facilities were buried by mudslides, some houses were hit by mudslides and only ruins were left, and some completely disappeared under the rolling mudslides.
Those houses that were not completely buried were also crumbling in the floods, as if they would collapse completely in the next second.
Even in some areas with higher terrain, the floods submerged them and only exposed the roofs.
Many people were trapped on the roofs, desperately waiting for rescue that was far away.
Countless corpses of little bastards and livestock were floating in the floods below, and there was no end in sight…
It can be said that the corpses were everywhere, and it was horrible to look at!
