Lost and Spy

The Japanese attack finally began.

After the night's temptation, the Japanese army quickly launched a fierce attack after dawn.

But in the face of the well-armed US military positions, there are not many methods they can use.

After several consecutive attacks, they were all repelled by the intensive firepower of the US military.

Moreover, the 12 mortars showed their power again.

One shell after another fell into the Japanese army, and the explosions caused heavy casualties to the Japanese army.

After attacking for a whole morning, the Japanese troops not only left corpses all over the ground, but were also forced to retreat to a relatively safe location.

They couldn't make any breakthrough at all.

The commercial building as the command center was not in substantial danger from the Japanese army at all.

The U.S. military stationed here, under the command of Second Lieutenant Tell, was honestly extremely bored.

They even wanted to rush out and kill a few Japanese monkeys to warm themselves up.

There is no need for Meng Shaoyuan to do anything here.

Therefore, he can stay in his office and lounge with peace of mind, and have a good discussion about life with Yazi and Ye Yue.

During the war, he can still be accompanied by beauties. I am afraid that only he, Young Master Meng, has such a good fortune.

In the afternoon, Young Master Meng was really tired.

And he felt that, as the highest military officer here, it seemed unreasonable for him to stay here and not visit the frontline soldiers.

Finally, Young Master Meng left the lounge with a flicker.

When walking, the feet are still soft.

……

Nishino Yao walked into Meng Shaoyuan's office.

He does some chores here.

Cleaning the office is also one of his tasks.

After a while, Ye Zi and Ye Yue also opened the door and walked in.

"Thank you for speaking for me."

Nishino Yao said respectfully.

"They're all Japanese, as they should be."

Ye Yue closed the office door.

At this moment, Nishino Yao's expression suddenly changed: "Is there no progress at all?"

"No, sir."

At this time, Yako Yanagzawa seemed to have changed: "That American officer named Charles seems to have endless energy, since he saw us, he has been thinking about doing that all the time.

I originally, Ye Yue and I, could make him exhausted and paralyzed very quickly, but I didn't expect him..."

"Okay." Nishino Yao interrupted her: "He is not Charles."

"No?" Yazi and Ye Yue were startled at the same time.

Nishino Yao sneered: "He is Shibu Taniguchi!"

Ako and Hazuki were completely stunned: "Head of the Secret Service of the Empire of Japan in Manila and Shibu Taniguchi, head of the Manila Security Forces?"

"It's him!"

Nishino Yoshi kept sneering: "Moreover, just now I saw Nosuke Kageyama, a subordinate of Takuma Shintani, the head of the Tenth Army Intelligence Section!"

"Unbelievable, unbelievable." Yazi said repeatedly: "They are actually spies?"

The expression on Nishino Yao's face changed from a sneer to a bitter smile: "This is our tragedy. The spies are beside us and they are in high positions, but we don't know it at all. How can we not fail?"

Ye Yue immediately became worried: "In this case, will he recognize us?"

"No." Nishino Yoshi cheered up: "We are from the Sakura Club. Since the war broke out, the Japanese intelligence agencies have paid less and less attention to us civilian intelligence organizations.

I was ordered to start work in Manila and secretly assist the imperial army. However, I had never even met the first head of the secret service.

Shibu Taniguchi has never heard of my existence, so it is impossible for him to know me. "

Before the outbreak of the war of aggression against China, a large number of Japanese civilian spy agencies were operating in China.

Meng Shaoyuan also dealt with them countless times.

However, after the outbreak of the full-scale war of aggression against China, civil organizations such as the "Sakura Society" and the "Blood League Society" have gradually lost their value in the eyes of Japanese intelligence agencies.

Moreover, the Japanese intelligence agency believes that the continued activities of such organizations will not only be useless, but will also delay the work of the intelligence agencies.

Gradually, the once darling in the eyes of the Japanese intelligence organization became a rib, and was even warned and expelled.

The Japanese private spy organizations in China have gradually lost their traces.

But this does not mean that these intelligence organizations have completely withdrawn.

Instead, they carved out Southeast Asia.

In Southeast Asia, because the Japanese army's offensive here was too smooth, the intelligence force was not very strong.

This is regarded as a new opportunity by Japanese private intelligence organizations, especially the Sakura Club!

The Sakura Society began to dispatch spies to various countries in Southeast Asia in large numbers.

Many of these agents have worked in China and are relatively experienced.

For example, Yoshino Nishino.

However, the problems they face are also the same:

The secret service paid little attention to them, even looked down upon them!
Yoshino Nishino was the first group of Sakura Society spies to enter the city after the Japanese army occupied Manila.

But in the past few years, since he has not even met the head of the Manila secret service.

This also shows the embarrassing position of Sakura Club here.

Yao Nishino had to lower his profile and regard himself as a real businessman, looking for opportunities while running the Nishino Club.

He has made some progress.

During his time in Manila, he developed quite a few members.

For example, Yanagisawa Ako and Yanagisawa Hazuki.

Ako Yanagisawa's father, who was a member of the Sakura Club, worked in China all year round, but was finally discovered by the military commander and disappeared.

When Ako Yanagisawa learned about Nishino Yoshi's true identity, she immediately felt close to her, and Nishino Yoshi quickly developed her into a member without any effort.

Afterwards, Yako Yanagaze brought her sister-in-law Ye Yue into the room.

It's just that Sakura will, or to be more precise, these three people are destined to be just a tragedy.

The husbands of Yanagisawa Ako and Yanagisawa Hazuki were killed.

Then, Nishino Yoshi's whole family and employees, who were basically members of the Sakura Club, were also destroyed by a huge bomb from the US military!
In the blink of an eye, there were only three people left in the Sakura Club Manila branch.

Nishino Yao blamed all the responsibility on the US military.

He decided to avenge his family and companions.

Therefore, when the Japanese evacuated Manila in large numbers, he stayed instead.

Similarly, Yanagisawa Ako and Yanagisawa Hazuki had nowhere to go and could only stay in Manila like their bosses.

What's even more tragic is that they were also driven into the Ministry of Communications building and detained with those ordinary Japanese.

If Major Koiso had not appeared, they would have died at the hands of their own people as they only wanted to do things for the empire.

"I know, there are a lot of explosives hidden here."

Nishino Yao said with murderous intent: "But I haven't figured out where exactly it is hidden. I asked you to come here first for this purpose.

Now, the Imperial Army is attacking there, and we must set America's backyard on fire! "
