Chapter 1489: Big Event (First Update, Please Subscribe)
Despite external pressure, the war on terror continues.

On land, tens of thousands of Freedom Army soldiers received a large number of new weapons, including some new weapons such as AR15. Before this, most of the weapons they received were Type assault rifles.

Thousands of SEA special forces from across the ocean are training these people and teaching them how to fight.

This is a "special war".

Meanwhile, in the air, the aerial strikes did not stop.

This year, the war was conducted in an extremely special way.

Tang Renda gave an order to the bombardier Victor who was sitting behind him.

"Let's find a target!"

Their target was a Central Jakarta defense base in central Java.

In the past few days, SEAF aircraft have also frequently launched air strikes on its military bases, as air strikes are needed to destroy the resistance of the Jakarta authorities.

However, when they arrived over the target, they found that the enemy had abandoned the base, and there was no need to waste bombs there until there was further news.

So Tang Renda called his wingman to accurately fly to the second target, which was a factory. All communications between Air Force aircraft were encrypted by a fast system, which meant that if someone else without the same system tried to listen, they would only hear a garbled conversation.

Tang Renda looked around. The sky was cloudless. About a kilometer away, his wingman, Luo Qingshan, was flying behind him, with bombardier Feng Yankun sitting behind him. When he arrived over the second target, Tang Renda lowered his altitude to identify the target.

What annoyed him was that the power plant released a lot of steam, which obscured the target, and the laser-guided bombs carried by the plane would not miss the target as long as they could follow the beam that the plane was shining on the target. But to fire the guidance beam, he had to see the target first.

"Knight, we're running out of fuel!"

Faced with the bombardier's reminder, Tang Renda could only fly the plane away in annoyance.

Two setbacks in one morning were too much, and he was unwilling to land with his full bomb load. But there was no target to hit, and the way home was to the north. A few minutes later, Tang Renda saw a huge industrial area below.

"what is that?"

he asked. Bombardier Victor consulted the map.

“It’s called Friendship Industrial Area.”

“The industrial zone is so huge!”

"Yes."

Although neither of them knew it, there were hundreds of factories in this industrial zone built with Soviet aid, covering an area of ​​10 square kilometers. There were both steel mills and chemical plants built with Soviet aid.

“Have you been listed as a target?”

"No."

"Anyway, let's go down and take a look. Haiyan, cover my rear wing."

"clear."

came the voice of his wingman pilot.

Tang Renda lowered the flying altitude of his F4 Phantom to 3000 meters.

The industrial area is very large, with a large factory in the center and a series of steel buildings as big as a stadium.

"Just throw it down."

"Knight, that's not the goal."

"We have to find a target to shoot at!"

After the altitude dropped to 2500 meters, Tang Renda activated his laser guidance system and aimed at the huge factory below him.

The instrument showed the approaching distance, then showed him the last few seconds left to fire. When the reading jumped to zero, the bombardier dropped the bomb, keeping his nose still and aiming at the approaching target.

The laser guidance system installed on the heads of the two bombs flies towards the target under the guidance of the laser.

Under his fuselage he carries a guidance pod called the "optical eye." The "optical eye" throws an invisible laser beam at the target, where the beam bounces back to form a funnel-shaped electronic basket that feeds back to him. The nose cone sensors of the laser bomb reach this basket, drill into it, and fall down the funnel until they hit exactly where the beam is aimed.

The two bombs had done their job, and they went into the middle of the steel building of the factory and exploded. The violent explosion sent up two huge columns of smoke.

After seeing the bomb explode, Tang Renda immediately returned to the base, pulled up the bow of the plane, and ascended to an altitude of 8000 meters. After another aerial refueling, he and his wingman flew for another hour and returned to the air force base near Yongding.

Before he pulled up the nose of the plane, Tang Renda had already seen the dazzling flames of the two bombs exploding and the smoke columns rising into the sky. He also saw the smoke columns that would be produced by the explosion.

What he didn't see was that the two bombs overturned the factory's giant steel tower. After the steel tower was destroyed, a large amount of chemical gas was released in the factory.

This is a chemical plant!

Tang Renda also did not observe that there was no wind in the air at this time.

After the factory's steel synthesis tower was destroyed, a large amount of chemical gas was released, and a huge gas column rushed into the sky, forming a mushroom-shaped gas mass, which began to permeate the factory and quickly spread in all directions.

After returning to the base, Tang Renda, like every other pilot at the base, made a comprehensive and detailed report on the mission. This was a tiring process for the already exhausted pilots, but it had to be completed.

The person in charge of the report was the squadron's intelligence officer, Major Feng Benfang. No one lied about their success, but every pilot went for the second target. Except for one person. That was Tang Renda, who failed to complete the second target and ended up choosing a third target at random.

"Why on earth would you do that?"

Major Feng Benfang immediately questioned him after learning that he had attacked the Friendship Factory.

"Because it's big and looks important."

Tang Renda answered honestly.

"But it's not in the airstrike mission order?"

As Major Feng Benfang complained, he wrote down the target he had chosen, its exact location and description, as well as his own report on the damage done by the bomb, which would be submitted to the Air Tactical Control Center, which worked in conjunction with the Air Force Headquarters.

"If you cause a large number of casualties, let's see how they deal with you."

Feng Benfang warned.

"Hey, it's just a factory, it's no big deal. In war, there will inevitably be accidental casualties."

In war, accidental injuries are inevitable. This is basic common sense. The bombing during World War II could completely raze a city to the ground. From Hamburg to Dresden, British and American bombers took the lives of hundreds of thousands of Germans. Is that a small number?

That’s roughly 1% of Germany’s population!

But so what?

That is the cost of war.

"You've gone too far, Captain."

Feng Benfang looked at the young flight officer in front of him and said to him:

"There's a reason why it's not on the list!"

Then he left to write his summary report.

“It’s just a factory.”

Tang Renda pinched his nose, sighed, and walked back to his room to rest.

Still, he knew the major was right.

If he really caused a large number of casualties, the general might actually remove his captain's epaulettes himself.

What Tang Renda didn't know at this time was that after he hit the chemical plant in the morning, events had quietly changed.

After learning that the chemical plant had been bombed and a large amount of ammonia had leaked, the Jakarta authorities, who had been hiding in the underground bunker in Bandung for fear of a decapitation-style attack, first reacted with cheers.

"They're screwed!"

Hada shouted excitedly:
"Send our reporters and reporters from all over the world there. We want to let the whole world and everyone see their atrocities!"

"Atrocities?"

Others were surprised:
"What atrocities?"

Hada said:

"This is a blatant atrocity, an atrocity against humanity. They are willing to destroy the chemical plant to kill our people. We must expose this atrocity against humanity!"

Ever since the attack, all Hada has been looking for a way to end this crisis. In any case, their bombing must be stopped. As long as there is no bombing, everything will be simple. With the assistance of the Soviet Union and the training of Soviet advisers, they will be able to regroup quickly and defeat the local opposition once again. Even if those oppositions have the support of SEA, it doesn't matter. It's just a matter of fighting for a few more years.

Therefore, the top priority is to force SEAF, their air force, to withdraw from the sky of Jakarta. In this way, they can sleep well and win the war!

But the problem is, how can they stop when the bombing is going smoothly?
But now…the attack on the chemical plant and the ammonia leak made him see another possibility.

It’s about creating a big event.

"There is more than just ammonia in our chemical plant..."

Hada, who had visited the local area, knew very well that it was not a chemical factory that only produced fertilizers, but also produced a variety of toxic substances including pesticides.

The whole world is not paying attention to this place now, but if the factory leaks toxic gas, it will inevitably change everything fundamentally. With this atrocity, the intervention of the United Nations and other major powers will be inevitable.

In just a moment, a thought that shouldn't have come to Hada's mind popped up.

"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity..."

Sometimes, dead bodies are weapons! Only when enough people die can the international community exert greater pressure!

Soon after the chemical plant was bombed, perhaps due to excessive pressure or other reasons, the pipeline was damaged, resulting in the release of a large amount of toxic gas. The toxic gas quickly spread to the surrounding areas.

The leakage of toxic gas in the chemical plant was like opening Pandora's box. And because no one stopped it, no one shut down the equipment after the gas leaked. Hundreds of tons of toxic gas turned into thick smoke and spread rapidly at a speed of 5 kilometers per hour, soon covering the surrounding area of ​​more than ten square kilometers. Hundreds of people were killed in the process, and more people died in the next few days.

When the news of the gas leak spread, people living near the pesticide factory fled their homes. They used various means of transportation to flee in all directions, hoping to get to unpolluted air. Some people were blinded by the gas and could only grope their way forward. Some people died while fleeing, and their bodies piled up on the roadside...
