American Strategic Deception Bureau

　So he brought this black armed force back to the Bronx in northern New York, built barricades there, and used pickup trucks equipped with heavy machine guns to maneuver and harass the people in the streets. He successfully repelled the West Point Military Academy's punitive force from upstream of the Hudson River and killed dozens of teachers and students from West Point Military Academy.

　However, the Black Panther Party's stubborn resistance also attracted the attention of General LeMay.

　Because the battle in northern New York City took place at night, with the darkness obscuring skin color, General LeMay mistakenly believed the entire "New York Commune" had moved north to the Bronx. He then ordered all troops entering New York to attack northward, encircling the main force of the Commune's insurgents.

　But the problem was that 30,000 congressional troops were looting Manhattan, where every inch of land was worth a lot of money. They were jumping around happily like 30,000 rats in a rice market. They had long lost their command and were not obeying orders. Everyone knew that the black area in the Bronx was full of poor streets. The blacks had no food to eat and must have little money at home. Who would be willing to leave the gold all over the place and go to the black area to smell the stench and be shot?

　In the end, despite General LeMay's repeated orders, it dragged on until late at night, and less than one regiment of soldiers obeyed his orders to march north. Moreover, their morale was low, and they fought passively. When they encountered the slightest resistance in front of the black barricades, they retreated in a panic...

　If we continue to fight at this slow pace, I'm afraid that even if we spend a week, we may not be able to eradicate the rebels in the Bronx!

　So, General LeMay, eager to win, naturally made a bold decision: "Prepare for a fire attack! Bring over all our planes and load them with gasoline barrels and incendiary bombs! I'm going to burn this place to ashes, just like I did Tokyo!"

　The black area of ​​New York City turned into countless fireworks, blooming one after another above the heads of the black people in New York!

　In an instant, a continuous shower of meteors and fire, like a world-destroying catastrophe, continued to hit the black area of ​​the Bronx.

　At the same time, the artillery positions on the other side of the Hudson River also completed their deployment and began to fire rapidly at the Bronx!

　Then, one shell after another was like an orange-red meteor, accompanied by the roar of a thousand horses galloping, piercing through the sky above the city, drawing a gorgeous and dazzling trajectory, whistling down from the sky, landing in the northern suburbs of New York, and exploding into balls of bright flames that shot up into the sky.

　At the same time, countless scattered embers and sparks were blown away and fell on the roofs around, and more flames suddenly appeared.

　Due to the resource advantage of dense forests in North America, even in large cities like New York, most ordinary people's houses, even those with multiple floors, are made of wooden planks. The advantage is low cost and fast construction, but the disadvantage is that they become excellent fuel in fires...

　What's worse is that as a famous poor street, the houses in the black area of ​​the Bronx are notoriously messy, with shacks and strange illegal buildings everywhere, as well as mountains of flammable garbage. Once the fire started, it was natural that it would get out of control!

　So, General LeMay, who was supervising the battle from the air in a helicopter, relived the pleasure of burning Japanese cardboard houses in the sky over Tokyo.

　"Oh my God! Is this the end of the world?"

　"Mary bless you!"

　The black people who were burned to ashes by the explosion looked at the raging fire and thick smoke all around them and couldn't help but let out a desperate wail.

　——Even in the Bronx, there are actually only a very small number of black people who have actually joined the Black Panther Party and raised the red flag to engage in revolution in recent days. Most black people hold a numb and neutral attitude, which is similar to how they view gang fights or police crackdowns in the past.

　Tonight, when the Black Panthers built barricades in the Bronx and drove out armed pickup trucks to engage in a fierce battle with the cadets from the West Point Military Academy, the vast majority of ordinary black people in the Bronx just hid under their beds or in the cellar, listening to the gunshots outside and silently praying to God.

　But what they never dreamed of was that what broke out that night was not only an ordinary gunfight, but also General Li May’s fire attack and bombing!

　At first, the blacks still hid in the cellars of their homes in fear, listening to the creepy "hissing" sound above their heads.

　It was not until they discovered that their house was on fire and the tap water was cut off, making it impossible to put out the fire, that they hurriedly carried their luggage and ran to the street. As a result, their vision was filled with deadly smoke and flames, rolling out along the narrow streets and alleys, turning the entire block into a boiling scorching inferno. Their ears were filled with the crackling sound of burning flames and the loud rumbling of collapsing houses: one wooden house after another collapsed in the sea of ​​​​fire, and the choking dust and smoke filled every corner of the block.

　As time went on and the bombing continued, the scattered flames gradually merged into a large area, burning everything on the ground, even the concrete buildings were burning like a demon. The fierce flames and heat like a steel furnace burned everyone.

　Driven to the brink of ruin by the raging fire, those desperately ran through the blaze, dragging their wives, children, and friends with them, trying to find a safe haven. Fences and wooden walls on both sides of the road were rammed down one by one by the crowd, and even iron railings were breached by the fleeing people's flesh and blood. Some frail people who ran just a few steps slower were shoved to the ground from behind, then trampled by countless feet, unable to get up.

　Anyone who managed to escape the fire tried to find open areas to hide. Fortunately, the Bronx is relatively remote, and there are quite a lot of open spaces and parks.

　But the planes circling overhead wouldn't let the blacks escape. Instead, they targeted crowded areas with bombs or strafed them with heavy machine guns. What's the old saying? "Those who dodge bullets are Black Panthers, and those who stand still are well-trained Black Panthers!"

　There were also some old-fashioned planes fully loaded with gasoline, whizzing over the black people who were fleeing with the elderly and children, pouring gasoline on their heads, just like "an enlightenment" - if a little spark floated onto these black people covered in gasoline, they would "die in the street" and be burned alive into relics!

　In this way, the death scythe from the sky and the terrible smell of gasoline in the air forced the blacks who were avoiding the fire to go back into the buildings. Then, in despair, they were slowly overwhelmed by the thick smoke or buried alive by the collapsed buildings in the fire.

　Wanting to escape further, the fire continued to spread with the wind, setting more and more houses on fire. The rising smoke completely blocked the view, and no one knew where the safe escape route was...

　Many unlucky people who were dizzy and running away ran into the depths of the fire, were surrounded by the wall of fire, and were eventually burned to charcoal.

　In addition to the black area of ​​the Bronx, the adjacent Manhattan and Brooklyn across the East River were also attacked by fire!

　——Just like the ground forces that General LeMay now commands are not regular federal troops but mercenaries, the air force he is deploying to the New York battlefield is also not a regular force but a mob assembled by congressmen from all over the place.

　Many of these pilots had never been to the battlefield and only flew old antique biplanes on farms to spray crops.

　I have no experience with medicine and I don’t understand night navigation at all.

　But General LeMay and Speaker Scott of Congress disagreed, thinking that all they had to do was spray gasoline on the heads of niggers.

　As for accidentally spraying the wrong person?

　Hey, no matter what your race or skin color is, as long as you pour gasoline on it and set it on fire, won’t everyone turn into a nigger?

　So, after they took off in their planes, they would just fly roughly towards downtown New York, and then find a place with fire and drop incendiary bombs and gasoline - but now there is more than just the Bronx on fire in New York, and their bombing accuracy is ridiculously poor.

　As a result, although the Black Panthers only set up barricades in the Bronx, half of New York from Manhattan to Brooklyn was bombed!

　What was even more speechless was that the Black Panthers led by Huey Newton, the very targets of General LeMay's fire attack, had already abandoned the barricades and gone underground, and were now on the verge of escaping.

　Author's words: PS: The story of our country's killer who won the worst Nobel Prize in Management and was outsourced has been adapted and put on the screen by a Korean director.

　Of course, the movie is even more hilarious. Not only was the commission fee deducted layer by layer, and finally only 50,000 won (about 250 yuan) was left in the hands of a North Korean refugee, but the target of the killing was also wrong in the process of being passed down layer by layer - the original target was a male professor driving a Ferrari, and later it became a female professor driving a green car, and later it became a woman driving a green car... It was a blessing that the employer was not killed in a daze.

　Chapter 505: Nuclear Blast in New York (Part 1)

　At 4 a.m. on August 2, at a subway station exit near the East River in Queens, East New York

　First, a few black scouts, who had their own protective coloring without the need for tar, blew a series of whistles to indicate "all around is safe." Then, a large group of black people carrying bags poured out of the subway station exit, which had long been shut down and without power, and sat down to rest.

　After a long journey, they looked very miserable, almost all of them were in a state of burnt mess, with ragged clothes and burn marks on their clothes. Some of them had their hair singed and their skin covered with blisters. In addition, some were wrapped in bloody gauze, as if they had been shot.

　However, these black people were in very good spirits, and everyone's eyes were filled with excitement and joy.

　After all, for them, being able to escape from the enemy's encirclement alive was already a miraculous and victorious escape.

　——They were the Black Panther guerrillas who originally occupied the Bronx.

　Unlike Jim Jones and Che Guevara, who were determined to die heroically in New York, Huey Newton, the Black Panther Party's "Secretary of Defense," had no intention of sacrificing himself. Instead, he planned to raise his flag, fight a battle in New York, burnish his reputation, and then flee.

　So, when Huey Newton was initially repairing the barricades and deploying defensive positions, he was setting up his position with his back to a subway station.

　When he repelled two military raids in the Bronx and discovered that the enemy air force had begun to bombard the area, he led the remaining Black Panther fighters, decisively abandoned all vehicles and heavy weapons, entered the subway station with flashlights, and began to retreat to Queens across the East River.

　In this way, even though the ground was turned into a sea of ​​fire by General LeMay, the Black Panther fighters lurking underground were still safe and sound.

　—The main reason is that General LeMay wasn't ruthless enough. He was only focused on setting people on fire and didn't think of filling the subway with poison gas...

　Of course, as a ragtag group, his troops were probably not equipped with enough poison gas bombs.

　In the end, except for a few people who sprained their feet, seven people who fell behind and went missing, and several people who were bitten by the big black rats in the subway, the rest of the Black Panther Party's armed guerrillas all escaped safely along the pre-surveyed escape route and successfully moved to Queens across the strait by subway.

　——In the eyes of the Black Panther Party’s guerrilla fighters, slipping away right under the enemy’s noses and miraculously jumping out of the encirclement can be regarded as a glorious "victorious escape", enough to brag to the younger generations for decades!

　However, looking back at the dazzling flames that lit up half the sky and the Bronx engulfed in flames, Black Panther leader Huey Newton couldn't help but feel a little sad and melancholy:

　Even across the East River (actually, the Strait), he could clearly see the dazzling flames twisting wildly in the night sky, growing larger and smaller, burning redder and redder, gradually transforming from a forest of flames into a vast waterfall of flames, rising straight into the clouds. Bright tongues of flame, carried by the wind, crossed the streets and the river, licking the buildings in the neighboring blocks. Although some tenacious residents still fought against the fire to save their homes, the fierce flames and heat waves, like those surging from a molten iron furnace, made it impossible to get close to put out the fire. They could only watch in despair as their houses were consumed bit by bit by the flames...

　Not to mention, the planes in the sky continued to drop bombs, making the fire that burned the city, causing great suffering, burn even more fiercely!

　What a miserable and horrific scene!

　The blazing fire illuminated his dark face. He seemed to hear the cries of women and children in the wind and smell the stench of roasted corpses.

　Although as a discriminated black man, Huey Newton and his compatriots had been accustomed to the white police's batons swinging six times a second since childhood, and never had any hope for the kindness and ethics of the white masters, but at this moment, seeing General LeMay

　Yet they bombed New York without hesitation, setting millions of American citizens in a sea of ​​fire in one breath... This still made Huey Newton feel a little shocked and terrified.

　"The brutality of American imperialism has indeed exceeded our worst imaginations, but this is a necessary price to pay, Comrade Newton."

　A blonde, busty, and slender KGB female spy came up to Newton and comforted him, saying, "If you want to win the victory of the revolutionary cause, tens of thousands of people are destined to sacrifice their lives. I think you should be able to understand this situation.

　The price of freedom is but one generation, but the price of slavery is for generations!"

　"I know that if you want to be a revolutionary, you can't be afraid of death! Ever since I founded the Black Panther Party, I've been prepared to sacrifice for the cause!"

　Newton said anxiously, "You said our uprising has shaken the whole world, right, Comrade Sophie?"

　"Yes, Pravda, The Times, and Le Figaro all published your feat on their front pages, and television stations in Moscow, Paris, London, and Tokyo were broadcasting your heroic presence waving the red flag in New York.

　The US dollar exchange rate in Europe has plummeted instantly, and it is expected to cause the biggest financial crisis in nearly 40 years.

　Although she was on the battlefield in New York and had limited communication with the outside world, this KGB spy, calling herself "Sophie," didn't let her imagination stop her from rambling. "It's a shame your time in New York was a little short. Actually, you could have applied for a miniature nuclear bomb earlier! If you had asked someone in Moscow to help, you might have gotten it approved," she said with a hint of regret.

　"I'm very grateful for Comrade Sophie's generosity, but there's really no need for this. Detonating a nuclear bomb won't help the New York Commune win against the encirclement and suppression of reactionary forces across the United States. The charge of a nuclear bomb on the American mainland is too heavy a burden for us, the Black Panther Party, to bear."

　Huey Newton said this, a sly smile appearing on his dark face, covered in sweat and dust. "Besides, the Kremlin wouldn't want to see a Soviet nuclear bomb explode in New York, triggering an overreaction from the White House, the Pentagon, and US troops in Europe, would it?"

　In response, the female spy Sophie curled her lips in noncommittal, and did not continue the topic of nuclear bombs. Instead, she asked about the Black Panther Party's next plan.

　"I will take my men out of New York as soon as possible, cross the Appalachian Mountains, and go to Detroit or St. Louis to launch a new guerrilla war."

　Huey Newton replied, "Is Comrade Sophie coming with us next?"

　"No, I can't leave New York for the time being. After all, Che Guevara and Jim Jones are still fighting in Manhattan!"

　Sophie shook her head, looking back at the flames raging in the Bronx and Manhattan, and replied, "A person who is serious about doing things should see things through to the end. As long as the urban guerrilla warfare of the New York Commune continues, as long as the red flag on the top of the Empire State Building is still flying, I will stay here. Even if I can't help in any way, I will at least use my own eyes to witness the end of all this, and then record the truth of history!"

　Yes, although the Black Panther Party ran away, the red flag of the New York Commune has not fallen yet!

　Hearing this, Huey Newton couldn't help but reveal a hint of shame in his eyes. His lips moved twice, but in the end, he said nothing. He just sighed deeply and wished Comrade Sophie good luck. Then he took out the map and studied the next retreat route.

　In this way, after a short rest, the Black Panther Party's troops quickly set out again, mixing in with the refugees leaving the city and fleeing to the suburbs.

　But the female spy Sophie stayed alone, looking at their backs with a playful smile on her lips.

　"You are right, Mr. Newton, the bigwigs in the Kremlin are too cautious to want a Soviet nuclear bomb on American soil.

　However, in the KGB's secret arsenal, there are miniature American nuclear bombs captured from Southeast Asia and Israel!"

　She licked her lips and turned to admire the crimson flames illuminating the night sky not far away. She listened to the explosions and cries carried by the wind, her expression a mixture of joy and madness. "Whether you're willing to take responsibility for a nuclear explosion on the American mainland or not, our agents have already smuggled a timed nuclear bomb into the Bronx! When the mushroom cloud rises, even if the Black Panthers deny it... will anyone still believe it?"

　After a while, Sophie looked down at the women's watch on her wrist. "Ah, it's almost time! I guess I should leave too!"

　Then, she swiftly put on her hood and nimbly moved through the dark streets and alleys, and soon she disappeared...

　August 2, 1970, 6:30 AM, The Bronx, New York

　Although most of the fires have been extinguished, the smoke still blocks the sunlight, making the surrounding environment gray.

　The hot ashes fell like heavy snow, and the turbid air made it almost impossible to breathe.

　Many people who survived the fire eventually died of suffocation in the billowing smoke and dust.

　Just looking at the hellish scene inside the fire from the outside is enough to scare people away and make them retreat.

　But under the personal supervision and repeated urging of General LeMay, he rushed to New York from the north to quell the rebellion.

　About 900 teachers and students from the West Point Military Academy, still wearing gas masks, sat in armored vehicles and jeeps, formed a reconnaissance team, and bravely entered the Bronx after the fire.

　Although I learn all kinds of cutting-edge killing skills every day in the military academy, I imagine how to gallop on the battlefield, kill the enemy, and win honor and victory.

　But here, these young military cadets finally discovered that there is no honor in real war, only endless hell!

　Along the way, they encountered no resistance, nor did they see any living people. Instead, the armored vehicle tracks and car wheels rolled over the thick ash on the ground. This kicked up clouds of ash, smoke, and sparks, choking the infantrymen following the vehicles and causing them to cough. The gray air was littered with charred skulls and burnt-out car wrecks, and the acrid stench of burning flesh and plastic filled the air.

　Major Martin, who led the team, half-stuck his body out of the hatch of the armored vehicle, trying hard to discern the surrounding situation through the smoke and haze, but he could not see clearly. Moreover, the hot and dry ashes in the sky were much more uncomfortable than the moist fog.

　Soon, he was sweating profusely from the heat and wanted to take off his gas mask and breathe heavily, but he could only grit his teeth and endure it.

　Finally, the cadets arrived at the barricade where they had fought the night before and found that the area had been almost burned to the ground, with nothing left.

　"Hurry and report to General Li Mei that our army has completed its reconnaissance mission and found no thugs!"

　Major Martin turned to the radio operator in the car and said, "What? Communication is being disrupted by dust? Then quickly turn around and go back..."

　Then, just as he had crawled out of the hatch again and leaned out, he suddenly saw a bright white light burst out from a building in front of him. The light was not only dazzling, but also incredibly hot. Even the camouflage cloth wrapped around his gas mask instantly caught fire!

　Major Martin's skin was burned with burn marks and blisters due to the sudden attack, and he screamed in pain.

　Immediately afterwards, accompanied by a deafening roar, a shock wave visible to the naked eye, like a hurricane and tsunami, swept across a large area of ​​the surrounding blocks with irresistible momentum, and also blew the armored vehicle that Major Martin was riding in into the sky like a matchbox!

　Author's words: PS: A little historical trivia: Herod, the Jewish king in the Bible, actually served as the chairman of the Olympic Games Committee.

　The Jewish king went to Olympus to preside over the Olympic Games. This scene is a bit hard to describe.

　The movie mentioned in the previous chapter is "The Killers", which consists of four short films. The killers' subcontracting is just one of the stories, and there are three others.

　Chapter 506: Nuclear Blast in New York (Part 2)

　At 7 a.m. on August 2, 1970, people all over New York saw a dazzling flash, like a flashlight in the universe.

　Then, all the clocks in New York, or at least in the Bronx, stopped forever at seven o'clock that day.

　- Taking advantage of the opportunity to transport weapons and ammunition to the Black Panther Party's armed forces, KGB agents secretly installed a captured American miniature nuclear bomb in an abandoned hospital in the Bronx and set the explosion time with a timer at 7:00 a.m. Eastern Time.

　Just like that, a few hours after the Black Panther guerrillas escaped the encirclement through the subway tunnel and fled New York, the nuclear bomb exploded!

　So, eight hours after New York suffered its first air raid in history, it suffered its first nuclear attack in history!

　Although the bomb detonated in the Bronx this time was only a tactical-grade nuclear bomb with a TNT equivalent of 5,000 tons, its destructive power in actual combat was probably less than half of the "Little Boy" atomic bomb dropped by the US Air Force on Hiroshima during World War II.

　But as New York's "first nuclear explosion experience", the scene was shocking enough to deeply shock all New Yorkers and make them unforgettable for a lifetime.

　At the moment the nuclear bomb exploded in the Bronx, a fireball over thirty meters in diameter formed on the ground. Although the heat radiated from the fireball lasted only a fraction of a second, it was so intense that it melted granite within a thousand-yard radius of the blast center.
