Chapter 337 Hit by a Nuclear Bomb

Inside the military command room of the Rice Empire, the atmosphere was tense and treacherous. Everyone sat together, racking their brains to cope with the Qin Empire's relentless pressure, their faces filled with fatigue and anxiety.

Just as the discussion reached a stalemate, a staff officer suddenly stood up, a sly glint in his eyes. He lowered his voice and suggested, "There's no need to be so desperate. Think about it, the Great Qin Empire has always held a strong prejudice against the former Sakura. We can launch a nuclear missile into Sakura territory. This will not only prove that our missiles are capable of reaching that far, but also avoid a stalemate with the Great Qin Empire. After all, it's Sakura who will die, not us."

Upon hearing this, Luo Xifu and the other generals were stunned for a moment, then glanced at each other, their eyes gradually filled with approval. They saw this approach as a way to both demonstrate their military deterrence and cleverly divert tensions, avoiding a direct nuclear conflict with the Qin Empire. It truly was "killing two birds with one stone." So, without much hesitation, they quickly gave the order to launch.

Soon, an intercontinental ballistic missile carrying three nuclear warheads slowly rose with a huge roar, cut through the sky, and flew towards the distant horizon.

The flames ejected from the tail of the missile were like an angry fire dragon, announcing the crazy actions of the Rice Empire.

At the Great Qin Empire's command center, the atmosphere suddenly became tense. Ye Daofu was concentrating on reviewing a military report when suddenly, an alarm blared. An intelligence officer rushed in, panicking, reporting, "Your Majesty, an intercontinental missile has been detected! It has already broken through the atmosphere and is hurtling towards the Great Qin Empire at an astonishing Mach speed. We suspect it's a nuclear missile!"

Ye Daofu was slightly startled, a hint of surprise on his face. He hadn't expected the Rice Empire to develop an intercontinental missile so quickly. He narrowed his eyes slightly and asked calmly, "Can you calculate the target of the nuclear bomb?"

The intelligence officer quickly replied, "After precise calculations by our supercomputer, there's an 85% chance that the missile's target area is Sakura Country, with the remaining probability being other regions."

"Heh," Ye Daofu snorted, a cold glint in his eyes. "The Rice Empire is really bold. It actually dared to take the initiative to break the treaty on the non-use of nuclear weapons."

Ye Daofu, standing aside, sneered and said without hesitation, "Immediately issue an order. Notify all Dongfeng missile vehicles and nuclear submarines immediately to prepare for launching nuclear bombs. Also, notify all troops to immediately retreat from the Rice Empire area to a safe area. I will nuke all of their 20 states!"

When the commanders of the front, Hitler and Stamford, received Yedolf's order, they were very surprised. They didn't understand why such an order was suddenly issued, but it was a soldier's duty to obey orders.

They quickly adjusted their deployment, decisively halted the attack, and organized a swift evacuation. On the battlefield, the ferocious roar of gunfire abruptly ceased, replaced by billowing clouds of dust and smoke as the army hurriedly retreated. A crisis of even greater magnitude was quietly brewing on this war-torn land.

Immediately afterwards, three nuclear bombs fell from the sky at Sakura. Each of these nuclear bombs had a yield of about 500,000 tons!

Three huge fireballs burst out with fierce light, and the three cities turned into scorched earth!

Ye Daofu decisively ordered that the powerful satellite broadcast system be used to broadcast the footage of the US Empire launching an intercontinental missile carrying a nuclear warhead to the entire world without reservation. In an instant, the world was in an uproar, and people from all countries were shocked by this astonishing scene.

No one could believe the Rice Empire had the audacity to blatantly violate the internationally recognized treaty on the non-use of nuclear weapons. Recalling the massive casualties inflicted on this land since the outbreak of the war, the people's anger ignited like a raging fire. Those living in the Land of Sakura were especially terrified, knowing full well that the nuclear bomb, carrying the threat of death, could very well explode over their homes.

The streets of Sakura Country were instantly plunged into chaos and despair. Crowds of people poured into the streets, faces etched with fear and anger. They gathered in small groups, whispering about the impending disaster, their eyes filled with helplessness. Many knelt on the ground, hands clasped together, praying devoutly toward the Great Qin Empire, tearfully imploring it to intervene and launch a nuclear bomb to wipe out the Great Rice Empire. Their cries and shouts mingled, echoing over the city, expressing their longing for peace and their overwhelming hatred for the Great Rice Empire.

Governments around the world also convened urgent meetings to discuss countermeasures. The international community poured in with condemnation, accusing the rice empire of reckless behavior and demanding an immediate end to this dangerous and provocative move.

For a time, the rice empire fell into unprecedented isolation internationally.

In the dim and oppressive office of the general manager, Luo Xifu gripped the phone tightly, his knuckles white from the strain. Beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, soaking the map spread out before him. His voice was hoarse, yet filled with a desperate determination: "Your Majesty, you see that I now possess a weapon capable of destroying the world."

Outside the window, the ruins of the city were smoking in the aftermath of war, and faint cries could be heard in the distance. That was the devastation that the war had left on the country.

"As long as you withdraw your troops," Luo Xifu took a deep breath and tried to make his tone sound tougher, "I can ignore you attacking my country and how many people we lost. This is my final bottom line."

He glanced at the pile of casualty reports on his desk, a flicker of pain and struggle in his eyes. Those were lives, countless broken families.

"Otherwise, we will perish together!" Luo Xifu raised his voice, almost roaring, "I will launch all the nuclear bombs. By then, your country will suffer unbearable losses. Even if you become powerful, all you will get is a piece of land filled with nuclear radiation. I only give you one day to think about it!"

After saying this, Luo Xifu hung up the phone heavily, slumped in his chair, staring blankly at the ceiling, a mixture of emotions welling up in his heart. He knew this was a huge gamble, the stakes being the future of two countries, and indeed the entire world.

Ye Daofu sarcastically said, "Don't you know that I have completely withdrawn my troops now? Do you know what this means? Try to understand it yourself."

I hung up the phone last night.

Luo Xifu turned pale and trembled all over. What did Ye Daofu mean? Was he going to launch an all-out nuclear war?
