But the problem is, the Soldiers exhibiting symptoms and the survivors of Hiroshima clearly did not think so. If the Island Nation’s Government took no action to help them, it would inevitably cause these people to lose heart, thereby affecting even more Soldiers and the Population.
But to make futile efforts to treat these Soldiers would be a completely unnecessary waste for the Island Nation’s Government, which already had scant funds and Material Reserves.
This situation also showed the advantage of a military dictatorship. What was a tough choice for other countries, for the Island Nation’s Government, there was actually only one option, and that was to abandon treating them.
Of course, on the surface, the Island Nation’s Government still maintained a certain level of pretense.
The Island Nation’s Government claimed they were currently looking for a way to solve these symptoms and promised to treat the victims for free as soon as they found a solution.
To some extent, the Island Nation’s Government wasn’t wrong, after all, since they could not possibly find a treatment method, naturally, they wouldn’t need to spend a large sum to treat them.
Even providing a basic Medical care environment was something the Island Nation’s Government was reluctant to offer. If it weren’t for the fear of a military mutiny, who would care about the lives of a mere few hundred thousand Soldiers?
Only after dealing with all this did the Island Nation’s Government have time to trouble Australasia.
But such minor protests and public opinion pressures were of no concern to Arthur.
Frankly, even those who sympathized with the Island Nation would not oppose Australasia for the sake of the Island Nation.
If there really were such foolish individuals, Arthur wouldn’t mind deploying the Royal Security Intelligence Agency to make a contribution to the World.
As for the diplomatic protests from the Island Nation’s Government, what a joke, since they were at war, why would Arthur care about the opinions of the Island Nation’s Government?
Even to Arthur, the protests from the Island Nation’s Government were a good thing.
At least it proved that the Island Nation’s Government still wanted to continue fighting, otherwise, the great present that Australasia had painstakingly prepared for the Island Nation would be unable to be delivered.
On Australasia’s side, the attacks on Kyushu Island and Hokkaido were still ongoing.
What Arthur hadn’t expected was that after the Bombing of Hiroshima, the Island Nation Army had deployed the majority of their divisions on Honshu Island, ready to fight to the death against Australasia.
But this was also good news, currently, the small Honshu Island had gathered at least 3 million troops, with nearly two million around Tokyo alone.
Just thinking about the scene after a few Atomic Bombs drop was thrilling.
More importantly, because of the large-scale troop movements by the Island Nation’s Government, the forces in Hokkaido were exceptionally weak.
The Australasian assault on Hokkaido was going very smoothly, with the Islander-controlled Archipelago already occupied by Australasia, and more than half of southern Sakhalin Island taken, nearly reaching the Borders with Rassia.
If one had a map, they could see that Australasia’s attack on the Island Nation was coming from all directions.
Except for the northern Coastline backed by the Island Royal Navy, almost every direction of the Island Nation saw the presence of the Australasia Army.
Although the exact state of the Island Nation’s economy was unclear, at least in fisheries and maritime transport, the Island Nation had already hit a historical low.
Australasia would not be courteous to Island Nation fishermen, if the Australasian Navy encountered the fishermen and civilian vessels during patrol, they would open fire directly.
With the Island Royal Navy’s main force destroyed, the Australasian Navy was invincible in the Pacific Ocean’s waters.
As various geopolitical currents stirred, the three-day deadline set by Australasia for foreigners to evacuate the Island Nation also quickly approached.
Countries and Peoples around the World, including the media, were curious about whether Australasia still had more powerful weapons to spare and how the Islanders would respond.
The British and French were feeling particularly conflicted at this time.
On one hand, they hoped that Australasia would possess even more powerful weapons, thereby more swiftly depleting the manpower of Allies like Germany and ending the war.
But on the other hand, they did not wish for Australasia to have more of these new weapons. The power of such weapons had already been demonstrated in Hiroshima, and such potent weaponry could instill fear in any country.

If it weren’t for the fact that Australasia is too important to this war, perhaps Britain and France would not have this attitude at this time.
If Australasia really did possess many new types of weapons, even if Britain and France could still endure this war, they would definitely come together after the war to discuss how to limit Australasia.
Even Russia and other countries would participate in this, as in the games between nations, when the military strength becomes too strong, it inevitably becomes a target.
Regarding the issue that the whole world has been anticipating, the bombing of the Island Nation, Australasia has only one answer, and that is that they must bomb.
The question is how to bomb, and when to bomb; these are currently the most important issues.
The main target of the next round of nuclear bombings is only one, that is the Island Nation’s capital, Tokyo, with a population of more than 3 million.
Unlike the previous bombing of Hiroshima, the atomic bomb used there was more like a prototype, specifically to explore problems and flaws when the bomb was actually used.
There are two issues at present. Firstly, the yield of small atomic bombs is relatively low. An atomic bomb meticulously crafted by Australasia failed to completely destroy even a small Hiroshima City Area.
Although the remaining buildings were far from the blast center, they did survive, which does not meet Australasia’s pursuit of resolving things in one go.
Of course, one of the reasons for this problem was that Australasia chose aerial bombing.
The atomic bomb exploded about 550 meters above Hiroshima, wasting a significant part of the blast yield in the sky, which is also one of the reasons why it did not completely destroy Hiroshima.
If it had been a ground explosion, the blast yield would most likely have completely destroyed all of Hiroshima and created an explosion crater over two kilometers in diameter in the city center.
However, there is one advantage to aerial bombing, which is that a large amount of radioactive material was scattered into the sky and blended with the water vapor above Hiroshima.
Based on the amount of radioactive material loaded on Australasia’s atomic bomb, Hiroshima will be uninhabitable for at least a hundred years.
Even the land and air within a 15-kilometer radius from the center of the explosion will teem with large amounts of radioactive elements.
It’s not even about inhabiting, let alone cultivate crops on the surrounding land.
This is not like the two atomic bombs the United States historically dropped on the Island Nation. Those two bombs were relatively crude with a low utilization rate of nuclear materials, resulting in radiation in Nagasaki and Hiroshima quickly decaying to an acceptable level.
As for what that level was, one can tell from the cancer rates of the populations in Nagasaki and Hiroshima in later generations.
Hmm, it’s still quite high.
In this world, with the baptism of Australasia’s enhanced atomic bombs, if Hiroshima is to be rebuilt in the future, that just might give us something to watch.
To ensure the power of the atomic bomb, of the 20 new bombs prepared for the Island Nation, more than half will use ground explosion methods.
To be launched by missiles to the vicinity of the target area, then the atomic bomb is directly detonated.
This way is very safe, but the accuracy is not guaranteed.
But then again, the new 20 atomic bombs are all enhanced versions.
The Hiroshima bomb contained only 10 kilograms of plutonium, whereas in the new bombs, the amount of plutonium has been increased to a full 20 kilograms.
Based on the previous utilization rate of plutonium in the bombs, the explosive power of these bombs could reach a staggering 70,000 tons of TNT equivalent each, which is two and a half times the combined power of the two historic American bombs.
Just five of these bombs would be needed to completely vanish Tokyo in an instant.
If it weren’t for the need for enough atomic bombs elsewhere, Australasia would have used more than five on Tokyo.
But thinking about it, five is already enough. Distributed in a quadrilateral with the center, removing Tokyo should be no problem.
