Lost and Spy

The sharp air defense siren woke up Sumaraga instantly.

Allied bombing came as scheduled.

In the near future, I don't know what happened. The Allied Air Forces began to bombard Sumaraga indiscriminately.

Its "status" is almost on par with Manila.

Finally, Sumaraga was not as panicked as it was when it was bombed for the first time.

Civilians sought shelter, hoping to escape the scourge.

The anti-aircraft forces began to fight back desperately.

Kohei Mizushima muttered and cursed.

The more this kind of chaos, the more likely an emergency will happen in Sumaraga.

And these are his responsibilities as the gendarmerie commander.

Meng Shaoyuan also collapsed a bit.

Damn, do you need to bomb like this?
The bombs that fell like raindrops, if one of them fell by his side, his life would be an account.

Don't die in the hands of the Japanese, but be killed by your own people.

Where can we go for reasoning?
There are few good anti-aircraft shelters in Sumalaga.

Also, don't you fucking bomb the No. [-] tunnel.

If any warehouse is blown up by you, young master, I will fight with you!

Finally, they were lucky enough to survive the bombing.

Sumalaga is full of flames.

The pungent smell of gunpowder smoke filled the air, mixed with the smell of blood, making people sick.

"The Americans are crazy."

Kohei Mizushima looked at the sky and said in a daze.

"The Americans are crazy." Meng Shaoyuan gritted his teeth: "They are all crazy!"

"Report, Colonel Itano has arrived."

"Is that so, welcome Your Excellency immediately."

Mizushima Xinghei then said to Meng Shaoyuan, "Come with me to welcome Your Excellency."

This is Dashi Itano, the commander of the Japanese army stationed in Sumaraga.

Meng Shaoyuan has been with Mizushima Xinghei since he arrived in Sumaraga, and he has never met this Colonel.

I saw a car appearing outside the Gendarmerie Command under the protection of two trucks full of fully armed soldiers.

Itano Taishi was the first to get down from the co-pilot seat.

That's not right, why is he sitting in the co-pilot seat?
Both Meng Shaoyuan and Mizushima Xinghei were taken aback.

Just as he was about to go forward to greet them, Taishi Itano waved his hand and stopped them.

Then, he quickly opened the rear door.

Two people came out one after another.

The last one to come out was impressively wearing the title of Lieutenant General of the Japanese Army!
Meng Shaoyuan and Mizushima Kohei were surprised.

Throughout the Philippines, there is only one Lieutenant General:
Commander of the Tenth Army of the Japanese Army, Chairman of the Philippine Association, Masaharu Honma!

The two walked straight into the headquarters without looking at Meng Shaoyuan and Mizushima Kohei at all.

At this time, when Itano Taishi, who was following behind, passed by the two of them, he whispered:
"Full alert, Your Excellency Commander is here, and we also encountered American bombing on the way!"

……

It really is Masaharu Honma who has arrived!
And coming with him is Major General Shinya Takuma, the head of the intelligence section of the Tenth Army of the Japanese Army!
In view of the recent uncharacteristic behavior of the Allied forces, not only targeting Manila, but launching indiscriminate bombing all over the Philippines, this sudden situation quickly attracted the attention of the Tenth Army Command.

Masaharu Honma judged that such a scale of bombing might hide some kind of military purpose.

And he decided to conduct an inspection of Japanese troops stationed in major cities in the Philippines to deal with emergencies.

"Your Excellency, this is dangerous."

Kohei Mizushima only felt a little scared: "The bombing of the Allied forces is very violent. If any accident occurs, we will not be able to atone for our sins by a hundred deaths."

"A little bombing, there is nothing to worry about." Masaharu Homma said indifferently: "In China, I participated in many battles including the Battle of Wuhan, and I have experienced too many artillery bombardments."

I grass your ancestors!

Meng Shaoyuan cursed in his heart.

That's right, you are the bastard who succeeded Fengwen Yamashita as the head of the 27th Division and massacred our soldiers and civilians in Wuhan!
It was you who openly released poisonous gas in the Hejian Northeast Qihui area in Yuji Province, killing and wounding more than [-] officers and soldiers of our [-]th Route Army!
Yaqing Honma would never have imagined that in the Philippines, there is actually a Chinese who can't wait to get rid of him immediately!

"Everyone." Masaharu Honma said with a serious face, "Don't say any more polite and hypocritical words. The uncharacteristic bombing by the Allied forces must be hiding some military purpose.

We, all ministries in the Philippines, should be vigilant and guard against any accidents.I decided to sweep up the local guerrillas all over the Philippines! "

Meng Shaoyuan heard this familiar word again:

Sweep!

The sweeping work in Sumaraga was mainly carried out by the army of Taishi Itano.

The gendarmerie, on the other hand, ensured the safety of Sumaraja after the mopping up began, and did not give the resistance organization any opportunity to take advantage of it.

This also made Meng Shaoyuan and Mizushima Kohei heave a long sigh of relief.

Otherwise, if Kohei Mizushima also participated in the sweeping work, it would cause great trouble for the gold smuggling work.

After assigning the sweeping task in detail, Masahiro Honma said, "Mr. Xingu, I'll leave it to you."

Takuma Shinya, who has not said a word since he came in, has a serious expression on his face: "According to the information passed by our intelligence personnel from the Allied Forces, MacArthur organized the army and is about to conduct an island seizure exercise on La Pradore Island.

La Pradore Island is very similar to Leyte Island in the Philippines in terms of terrain and climate, so we have reason to believe that the Allied forces are likely to carry out landing operations on the Philippines in the near future! "

No way, not so fast.

Meng Shaoyuan was thinking in his heart.

The Allied Forces have not yet achieved complete command of the sea, and it is unlikely that they will implement the Battle of the Philippines so soon.

Most likely, it was his own people who directed a good show there to lure the Japanese into taking the bait.

"Those in the navy are unreliable." Xinya Takuma's tone was full of contempt for the Japanese navy: "We can't rush to implement operations after the navy has completely lost its command of the sea.

Therefore, combat readiness can begin now.Your Excellency the Commander has decided to turn all cities in the Philippines into strong fortresses, so that the enemy will have to pay a heavy price for every step forward!

And my main task is to completely eradicate those resistance elements in the Philippines and erase them from all cities.First stop, I'll start with Sumaraga! "

I rely on!

Meng Shaoyuan cursed again in his heart.

What are you doing in the Philippines?
Doesn't this increase the difficulty of my work?
Kohei Mizushima said cautiously: "Your Excellency Commander, Your Excellency Section Chief, the journey is long, please take a break first?"

Masaharu Honma was indeed a little tired, and she didn't refuse the kindness of her subordinates.

When he got up and passed Meng Shaoyuan, Takuma Xingu suddenly stopped in his tracks: "Who are you?"

"Yamayurikai, inspector, Shibu Taniguchi."

Shinya Takuma said "Oh": "Is that so, you are Taniguchi Shibu?"
