The same outer hardpoint of H-6K can carry 6 250kg-bombs (1.5-ton payload). One thing is sure: YJ-12 is heavier than 1.5 ton.
Here is #57 among 3 other H-6Js and 2 H-6Gs:

Here is #57 among 3 other H-6Js and 2 H-6Gs:
Do we know if H6K/J can carry laser guided bombs or limited to only dumb bombs? Does it have the proper targeting system for LGB?
Haven't seen any variant of the H-6 armed with PGBs... that said the H-6 does have an EO turret that contains FLIR + TV camera + laser designator, so it wouldn't surprise me if it has the capability to drop TV/laser/BeiDou guided bombs.

Normally I wouldn't share such mundane images, but I'm doing this to prevent a certain obsessive-compulsive crackpot (who suffers from ) from clogging this thread with yet another novel-sized list of utterly useless trivia that does nothing but waste space and puts people to sleep.
From my very special "friend"!
The funny part of this story is: The report covers most of all the H-6 with some very interesting "revelations" like the yellow parts.
By the way, he sent me another insult with the comment I have no idea on the H-6 since "The message boards of bookstores in Taiwan and Japan commented on your book, saying that you can’t tell the correct radar model of the Chinese bombers?"

The story continues with yet another round of insults and threats and he's mocking;
Anyway, back to the important things;
This could be the first clearer image of a H-6MW drone carrier for the WZ-8 high speed high altitude recce UAV. It clearly has a pair of clamp pylon/adaptor to its belly, the regular wing pylons & the small ventral pylon removed but has a new dorsal SATCOM antenna installed.

About ten H-6M bombers from the 10th PLAAF Division, based on the east coast of China, recently participated in a firing and pilot qualification exercise. Among the devices is a variant that appears to be the carrier aircraft of the supersonic RECCE WZ-8 drone.
