My German Empire
Chapter 922 Chicago Fire (1)
At this time, the Secretary hurried in.
"Mr. Vice President, the German bomber fly over Chicago and started to throw the bomb."
"Damn!" Dulun Vice President couldn't help but whisper, I am afraid that the Germans will throw a terrible burner, Chicago has to become a ruin.
Why is it "again", because of October 8, 1871, Chicago has encountered a fire. The early Chicago architecture is built with wood, and even the streets and sidewalks leading to each building are covered by wooden boards, and the wooden fence is surrounded. Wooden structures such as wooden fences, wooden warehouses, and wooden hips are everywhere. The fire is through the wind, the more burn it. After the first fire was issued, the urban area of Chicago became a big "fire city". The flame of the sky will reflect the whole night sky. It's still not bright, the fire approached the most dense central area of the Chicago population. The hotel, commercial building, opera house, bank, postal building are swallowed.
The survivors at the time said: "Everyone in the house is going to take things as much as possible. I tied the clothes in the bed. The clothes were clipped under the armpits, backpacks on the back, I and my family successfully fled the fire. Room. "
"Everyone has tried to run in the north. People with a variety of strange things, there is a woman with her wedding dress, another woman brings a bunch of soap. In this fire, people take away It's some things that don't have a lot of value, and the truly precious things are stayed at home. "
The poor people flemers in their own two feet, and the rich people will drop the carriage, ride on the ripping of the city, and the horseshoes have died many people. According to reports, there are more than a thousand people who have been burned and thrive. In order to escape the fire, thousands of Chicago people fled to the shore of Lake Michigan in panic. Some people worried that the fire would burn into the lakeside, and they were drowning into the lake.
The terrible fire has been launched until the next morning, the firefighters control the fire on October 9, 1871, but the biggest hero is a sudden storm.
This fire is the most heavy fire in human history. After the fire, the center of Chicago is rubble, and the 170,000 housing is full. Only in accordance with the value of housing and furniture that was burned at the time (indirect losses were not considered), according to the most conservative currency prices at the time, the loss was not less than $ 1 billion. The number of deaths (100,000 people is homeless, 300 people lost) is the statistics of the corpse found, more people think that many deceasers are not statistically, such as that, there is no registration, and many people are In the sleep, I was suffocated, and I burn the bone, so I was not calculated at the time. More people disclose that when the relevant authorities are counting the number of people, the number of labor deaths from Europe, the Middle East and the East is not calculated ...
As for the fire to make a fire into a fire sea in a short period of time, how is the fire in the city of Chicago? Almost at that moment from the fire, there are four guessions. Among them, the most widely circulated version is a stubborn dairy kicking the oil lamp on the grass, and ignite the industrial shed to make the fire spread throughout the city.
At that time, the fire captain conducted at the scene was considered: "It is a fire everywhere, and this fire in the whole city is impossible, it is impossible to start from a house and spread it."
With the deepening of disaster investigation, the truth is more and more confusing. On the same day, some of the forests and grasslands around Chicago also took a fire. There are even a lot of witnesses to draw the way, "The whole sky seems to be burnt, and the hot stone has dropped from the sky ..."
American scholar dimension. Cheam Branch has studied after studying astronomical files: this fire is caused by a hot meteori rain. In his opinion, the meteorite rain has a very high temperature, which is enough to instantly melt the metal stone, otherwise it is impossible. It seems that it seems to be reasonable, but this theory has not been recognized by the scientific community.
In addition, there are other tornadoes, and comet shards are striking earth say, but these speculations are not accepted due to insufficient evidence. Until one to more centuries, people fails to find the real reasons for this fire fire, which is incredible to become the mystery of the world.
And the combustion bombs set by the Germans did not know how many losses and casualties. Although most of the residents in the city escape to the surrounding countryside, there are still many people to stay in the city for a variety of reasons. According to the experience of New York City, even if they hide into the underground air cave, the German bomb has fallen near the air defense hole, and these people have eight / nine fierce.
Dulun Vice President Draw a cross in his chest and prayed softly. "May God bless you!" In addition to praying, he can't do anything. As a president of a country (although he now is a vice president, but the president is the president's position), only the city is smashed by the enemy's unscrupulous bomb, the innocent people are slaughtered, this kind of weakness makes him Sorrow, angry, even desperate, but the hand is no.
The conference room atmosphere is suffocating, as if there is an invisible big mountain pressure to breathe. I don't know how long it took, Marshall broke this suffocating silence. "The next goal of the German is probably Los Angeles." Last time is New York City, this time is Chicago, the next goal is probably Los Angeles.
Dulun Vice President Looking forward to the commander of Arnold. "Arnold commander, can you allocate some 150mm air defense guns to Los Angeles?"
Arnold commander sighed. "Mr. Vice President, let me not say that only 10 150mm air defense cannon can be transferred, even if the 10 air defense guns are deployed to Los Angeles, I am afraid that there is no effect. Don't forget the terrible intelligence capabilities of Germans, today We deploy the air defense gun in the Los Angeles city, and the Germans will get a detailed deployment map tonight. "Although I don't want to admit that the Germans have this intelligence. It is said that Arnold Commanders are interested in unintentional Director Dano Wan. This guy is like a waste, and now I will catch a few small fish, and I didn't find the German's intelligence network core character in the United States. How did the President Wilgi make this color such goods as an important job? ?
"And even if we use thousands of thousands of air defense guns to surround the Los Angeles group, the Germans also have a jet bomber." It can fly to 17,000 meters high jet bombers, thinking is uncomfortable.
"..." Dulun Vice President Zhang Zhangzhao, so half of it asked. "But we can't do anything.!"
"Of course, what is going to do." Arnold commander shook his head. "But now you can do just try to evacuate the residents and property in Los Angeles city, and reduce losses as much as possible. Not only is Los Angeles, Houston, Philadelphia, San Francisco and other big cities need evacuation." Although these big cities have also encountered bombings It can also be paid as a lot of New York City. Nowadays, Germans have been mad and mad, destroyed a city, which must be evacuated as soon as possible.
Dulun Vice President has frowned, which is all industrial big cities. If people are evacuated, how do you produce all kinds of military civilian products in the factory? It can be remembered, and the bombing of Germans may be targeted for these industrial districts. If it is difficult for these factories, if they do not evacuate workers, they will not be lost but they have lost. "It seems that we have to split the industrial zone to evacuate the factory to the surrounding country." This is not a small project, but it can be bombed by the Germans to be a slag.
