Lost and Spy

Chapter 3102 Precision Bombing
The whole of Manila is gradually turning into a war fortress.

All the places that can be used for defense are carefully building defensive positions.

Even some minor places have begun to station defensive troops.

Iwabuchi fought with Shimadakazuhiro three times. This is a determined decision to live and die with Manila.

"here."

Shimata and Hiro pointed to a bridge ahead: "We will do our best here to block the enemy's attack. If we can't stop it, the bridge is filled with explosives, and I will let all those enemies be buried here!"

Meng Shaoyuan nodded in satisfaction.

However, according to this arrangement, the US troops entering Manila will inevitably suffer huge casualties.

Every step forward, will pay the price of blood.

However, no matter how smart I am, I am afraid there is no way to stop these two crazy Japanese.

"My security force, only the Army is the most trustworthy here."

Shimata and Hiro were full of ambition: "As for the red deer in the navy, they will see with their own eyes the miracles I have created!"

Although the two are equally crazy, in terms of rich combat experience, Shimata and Hiro far surpassed Iwabuchi three times.

Is there any way to get rid of this guy?

Meng Shaoyuan began to quickly calculate in his heart.

However, in such a severe situation in Manila, it seems that a particularly good solution cannot be found for a while.

……

"Lieutenant Colonel Bosens, there is a Chinese who wants to see you immediately! He said Peter Lin sent him."

"is it?"

Lieutenant Colonel Bersons, who had almost completely seized the rights of the Filipino guerrillas, heard that it was a Chinese and was introduced by Peter Lin, and immediately said: "Please come in."

In came a young, enviable Chinese.

This is Xie Great Wall from "Young Avengers"!
"Hey, boy, what's the matter?" Lieutenant Colonel Bosensi said enthusiastically, "Where is Lin? Where is he now? I haven't seen him for a while."

He doesn't like Filipinos, but he has a good impression of Chinese people, especially Peter Lin.

After all, after he quietly landed in the Philippines with people, Peter Lin helped him with many wonderful ideas in the process of seizing the command of the Philippine guerrillas.

"He's fine." Xie Changcheng said immediately, "He asked me to bring out a piece of information and asked you to send it to General MacArthur immediately!"

Information brought by Peter Lin?

Hearing this, Lieutenant Colonel Bosensi did not dare to neglect: "Send a report to General MacArthur immediately!"

……

Allied Command Southwest Pacific.

1944 12 Month 10 Day.

"Our super intelligence agent, Peter Lin, passed on important information to us!"

Douglas MacArthur looked serious: "According to intelligence, Yamashita Fufumi has decided to abandon Wright Island and fight our army on Luzon Island!
防守吕宋岛的日寇主要是第14方面直属部队和横山静雄的第41军，第41军辖第8师团、冈本保之的第10师团、尾崎义春的第19师团、西山福太郎的第23师团、村冈丰的第103师团、津田美武的第105师团及岩仲义治的战车第2师团。

Yamashita decided not to rush the allied forces to a decisive battle on the beach, but waited for us to go ashore before encircling and annihilating them.Therefore, in terms of troop deployment, according to the geographical characteristics of Luzon Island, Yamashita divided the troop into three combat groups and set up defenses in different regions..."

The information provided by Tian Qi was handed over to him by Meng Shaoyuan himself, and it almost completely presented the Japanese army's defense plan.

Even which direction of the Japanese army is the weak point, which direction is the focus of defense, and even where the headquarters of Yamashita Fufumi is located is clearly marked.

With this important information, the Japanese army in the Philippines has no secrets in front of the Allies!

MacArthur is not surprised at all. Tian Qi was able to obtain such important information. After all, he is a super super spy who saved the Big Three of the Allied Forces!

"Kruger!"

MacArthur's eyes fell on his subordinates: "The main attack mission on Luzon Island, I decided to still hand it over to your Sixth Army! What are you going to do?"

Although the battle of Wright Island is still ongoing, MacArthur has already set his sights on Luzon Island!
Kruger hardly had time to think: "I decided to hand over the mission of the advance landing to Swift's 1st Army and Griswold's 14th, and the landing site was chosen in Lingayen Bay."

"very good!"

MacArthur looked quite satisfied: "In order to ensure the success of the landing, Halsey's carrier-based aircraft and Kenny's land-based aircraft will take on the task of protecting and destroying the Japanese air forces of the Japanese invaders in the Philippine Islands and nearby areas."

As he spoke, he looked at the map, and then his finger landed on a spot: "According to Peter's information, Dolo Island! The Japanese army's defense here is weak. I will seize Dolo Island in advance and provide a good place for Kenny's plane. Go to base!"

……

On December 1944, 12, under the guidance of Tian Qi's intelligence, MacArthur sent a task force commanded by Brigadier General Dunkel.

Under the cover of a part of the 7th Fleet, they sailed around the Surigao Strait to Mindoro.

Since the Japanese invaders could not clearly determine the landing target of the Allied forces, they did not make an organized defense.

12月15日，邓克尔指挥第24步兵师第19步兵团及独立的第503伞兵团在民都洛岛的帕奈和尼格罗斯海滩上陆，几乎未遇到抵抗。

The 4 small abandoned airfields located in the southern part of the island were captured by the US Army within a few hours and put into use soon!
During the Allied occupation of Mindoro Island, Halsey's carrier-based aircraft precisely and violently bombed the airport on Luzon Island based on Tian Qi's intelligence, and deployed a fighter screen over the island to prevent Air strikes by Japanese bombers.

Although the Japanese invaders subsequently sent reinforcements to Mindoro, they were stopped by the defense line established by the US military.

The capture of Dulo Island pushed the land-based aircraft bases of Kenny's 5th and 13th Air Forces nearly 500 kilometers northward, thereby placing the entire island of Luzon within the combat radius of Allied shore-based aircraft.

In order to prevent the Japanese invaders in Luzon from ascertaining the real landing place of Lingayen Bay, MacArthur took many deceptive measures.

Allied bombers kept attacking targets in southern Luzon; patrol planes focused on photographing and reconnaissance over Ban and Tayabas at the southern tip of Luzon Island; transport planes continued to fly over this area to pretend to be an airborne attack .

Torpedo boats patrol the south and southwest of Luzon, as far north as Manila Bay; minesweepers clear the waters of the bays of Barragan, Panay, and Thayabas; landing ships and merchant ships head to the beaches of these areas Close together, until the Japanese invaders opened fire, they retreated calmly under the cover of night.

And this also made Yamashita Fengwen finally make a wrong judgment!
