Lost and Spy

Chapter 3053 Chaos City
On October 1944, 10, the US military transport ship entered and retreated into Wright Bay, and the landing battle on Wright Island was about to break out!

One thing has to be mentioned.

在美军展开登陆行动之前的10月12日到10月14日，美军第38特混舰队空袭了日本控制下的台湾。

The Japanese Land and Sea Air Force fought with it and suffered heavy losses.

However, although these pilots were beaten with bruised noses and swollen faces, the cowhide blew loudly.

They claimed to have destroyed 11 aircraft carriers and damaged 8 aircraft carriers.

Although the Japanese navy quickly discovered that the pilot was bragging, but due to the face and the conflict with the army, they did not notify the army of this matter.

The consequence of this incident was that the top Japanese army believed that the US fleet that landed on Wright Island did not have an aircraft carrier, and they could completely annihilate it.

So regardless of Yamashita Fufumi's objection, he changed the plan for a decisive battle on Luzon Island, and invested the main force on Wright Island, and with the cooperation of land-based aviation, annihilated the landing U.S. troops.

For this reason, the Japanese Army transferred the 1st and 26th Divisions from Northeast China to fight on Wright Island.

On the evening of the 19th, the entire U.S. fleet gathered in Wright Bay. MacArthur looked at the huge fleet and was extremely excited. He believed that the landing would be successful and he could fulfill his original promise.

In the early morning of the 20th, the U.S. amphibious landing formation entered the designated position, and the amphibious landing formation was divided into north and south according to its position.

At the U.S. landing site, the Japanese army did not focus on defense, so the resistance encountered by the U.S. military was not strong. In addition, the U.S. military received strong enough firepower and air support this time. Therefore, this landing became a rare event in the Pacific War. An extremely smooth amphibious landing operation.

The U.S. military landed from 8 o'clock until it was dark, and encountered no obstacles except for sporadic Japanese mortar counterattacks.

The total casualties of the 4 US divisions throughout the day were only a few hundred people. The US military established two landing sites with a depth of more than 1 mile on the first day, and made a good start.

MacArthur also went ashore with ordinary U.S. soldiers that day.

Seeing that the landing was very smooth, he left the cruiser at 1 p.m. and started to land. A reporter recorded this historical moment.

After MacArthur boarded the beach, he immediately released his speech to the entire Philippines through a radio transmitter. In his speech, he said emotionally:
"People of the Philippines, I am back, and by the blessing of the Almighty, our military stands again on the soil of the Philippines where the blood of our two peoples has been shed. The foundation of your strength, the freedom of your nation, is back."

This speech became the most famous speech in MacArthur's life.

And this speech quickly spread throughout the Philippines through various channels, which had a great impact on the Philippines.

For the Filipino people, they saw the hope of driving out the Japanese colonists.Although this is actually driving wolves at the front door and tigers at the back door.

But they quickly set off a struggle against the Japanese colonists.

This forced the Japanese army to mobilize part of its forces to carry out brutal suppression.

For the Japanese overseas Chinese in the Philippines, it also made them feel more and more terrified.

They can't wait to get out of this damn place.

But they only have one way out:

"Awamaru" number!

Especially the first successful transportation made them even more eager and fanatical!
For that boarding permit, everyone tried their best.

What kind of means they have used.

Those who have money spend money, and those who have no money employ people.

Every agent of the Japanese secret service has been bribed.

Regardless of whether bribing these secret agents is useful or not, anyway, those Japanese expatriates are like gamblers with red eyes, pinning all their hopes on whether to be big or small.

For this reason, Meng Shaoyuan turned a blind eye.

What does it have to do with him?
Some spies took money but did not help you with affairs, causing Japanese expats to come to question and even make trouble.

It happened to be seen by Meng Shaoyuan.

Originally, it was very embarrassing for the Japanese spies who received the money and did nothing.

But it never occurred to me that instead of punishing them, Meng Shaoyuan also drove out the troublesome Japanese expatriates.

This also made these Japanese spies grateful to His Excellency Director Taniguchi.

What a good chief, since he took office, he always thinks about his subordinates.

Meng Shaoyuan's attitude also made these Japanese spies more unscrupulous.

This also had two consequences.

In the eyes of Japanese expatriates, the Japanese secret service has become unbearable.

They refuse to have any cooperation with the secret service.

There is another result. Under the "example effect" of Fazheng and others, Rites began to use various means to crazily amass money.

Their work ethic has long since been thrown aside.

What arresting rioters, what destroying resistance organizations, how can it be so real to see a lot of money coming into one's own pocket?

The Japanese special agency in Manila fell into disorder and chaos in the shortest time.

Even those people in the archives room are all gearing up and rolling up their sleeves to work hard.

During the day, the huge Japanese special agency was almost empty, and almost all the spies went to the streets of Manila to look for opportunities to make a fortune.

Meng Shaoyuan has never been so relaxed and comfortable in intelligence work until now.

He can enter the file room calmly and read those top secret files.

For him, the entire intelligence system in Manila has no secrets at all.

The same is true for Iwate.

The top-secret telegrams to the Allied Forces were sent without any hindrance.

Nobody cares at all.

In any battlefield, when intelligence operations are paralyzed, it will be fatal.

The "Awa Maru" is the hope for all Japanese expats to leave, but it has also become a nightmare for Japan's intelligence work in Manila!
"It would be great if it was as easy as it is today in China." Even Fazheng, the instigator, sighed: "That way, we won't sacrifice so many comrades."

"It can't be done, it depends on the form of war." Meng Shaoyuan replied rationally: "At that time, the Japanese army was in full swing, and the intelligence system was also working hard and effectively.

But now, Japan is at the end of the road, and many people's minds are no longer on the battlefield. What they think about is what should they do if the war fails?
They no longer consider the interests of the so-called empire, all they care about is themselves, what war, fuck it. "

"This is all caused by you." A smile appeared on the corner of Fazheng's mouth: "Boss, you turned this place into a city of complete chaos!"

"It's not me, it's the war, it's the situation!"

Anyway, this place has become a city of chaos!
