Lost and Spy

"The entire situation in Manila is already under our control."

Tian Qi came over and said, "MacArthur asked why you have had enough rest?"

Meng Shaoyuan's head immediately started to hurt: "Is there any new mission?"

Tian Qi nodded: "Malacañang Palace."

"What?"

Master Meng didn't know everything, so he asked as soon as he heard it.

"This has a history of 200 years, and it means 'that's where the nobles live.'" Tian Qi then explained: "Since the beginning of Spanish colonization, it has been the place where Spanish naval officers, diplomats and senior officials were received. Later, Manila After a major earthquake, the Governor's Mansion was moved to this place. Later, it became the American Governor's Mansion."

Master Meng understood immediately: "Where are the Americans planning to form a new government?"

Tian Qi said "Yeah": "After the large-scale use of artillery fire by the US military, MacArthur issued a fatal order not to use any artillery shells against Malacañang Palace. Therefore, the Battle of Manila has gone on so far, except for a stray bullet that has grazed the shrapnel. Otherwise, Malacañang Palace did not suffer any damage.

Therefore, after discussions between the Americans and the Filipinos, they decided to set up the new government there.MacArthur asked us to recapture Malacañang Palace as soon as possible without causing damage, and to quickly deploy security forces to await the arrival of General MacArthur and senior officials of the new Philippine government. "

As he said that, he took out another telegram: "All operations are under the unified command of Colonel Peter Lin."

"Hey, then you are still my commander?" Meng Shaoyuan said jokingly.

"Boss, don't make fun of me." Tian Qi couldn't even laugh: "As a colonel, I know how the super spy came here. You arranged everything for me early in the morning. I am the front desk singer, and you are the one who It’s the person behind the scenes who controls the overall situation.”

"You have to adapt to your current status." Meng Shaoyuan stopped joking: "Your official position will become bigger and bigger, and your responsibilities will also become bigger and bigger. There are many things that you can do even if I don't give you orders. You need to make your own decisions.”

At this point, the conversation changed: "Okay, let's talk about the situation at Malacañang Palace."

"There is a dissatisfied squadron of the Japanese army there with 150 people, plus a grenade unit transferred there, the total number is about 160 people." Tian Qi said: "It is not difficult to defeat it. Difficult. The difficulty is not to cause any damage to Malacañang Palace.”

Meng Shaoyuan frowned: "To put it simply, we should try not to fight as much as possible."

"Yes." Tian Qi also frowned: "I tried my best to get the information about the commander there. The commander is a naval officer, Major Michhiro Muraki. This man comes from a naval family. After Japan attacked Pearl Harbor, he was transferred from the country. To the Marine Corps. As for other information, time is too short and there is no more detailed information."

Meng Shaoyuan exhaled, thought for a long time, and said: "Order, the troops must assemble and set off in two hours."

……

The Ranger Battalion lived a truly magical life on Knighting Street.

Now that they have received combat orders again, these American soldiers are naturally complaining.

But complaints are complaints, but orders are orders.

"William, bring as much supplies as you can."

"Understood, Major."

As a result, the gathering of troops turned into moving.

Lieutenant William transferred two trucks, which were specially used to transport supplies.

You must bring Coca-Cola and all kinds of cans.

Food, clothing and clothing are all indispensable.

To be fair, the US military was later called the "Young Master Soldiers", not because they were afraid of death, but because these soldiers had to bring a lot of strange things with them when fighting, and logistical supplies were indispensable. , otherwise they don’t seem to be fighting.

As a result, the entire Ranger battalion became busy.

Everyone yelled, for fear of missing anything.Tian Qi drove a jeep: "Major, get in the car and follow me."

"Yes, Colonel."

Your sister, you really think you are a commander.

Meng Shaoyuan got into the car while muttering to himself.

"Hi, hi!"

Lieutenant William's loud voice came over: "Let's go, everyone is going!"

……

Malacañang Palace.

It was first built in 1802 and has a history of 200 years. It was originally a noble villa. It has no name and does not look very majestic, but it is a quiet, beautiful and historic palace.

After expansion, Malacañang Palace finally formed a unique building with both Eastern and Western styles, becoming the pride of the Filipino people.

Although earthquakes and tropical hurricanes have caused damage to Malacañang Palace many times, wars have not damaged it.

When the Ranger battalion arrived, the positions outside Malacañang Palace had already been deployed.

This is a squadron organized by Dissatisfaction.

But in terms of weapons, it is still relatively complete.

Two heavy machine guns stared at the opposite side with their muzzles open.

Behind, the grenade detachment can also attack at any time!
However, facing the arrival of the US military, the Japanese army seemed to be well prepared and did not show too much panic.

"It's not easy, Colonel."

Now Tian Qi is the supreme commander here. Lieutenant William has been fighting with Meng Shaoyuan for a long time. Although he is closer to "Major Charles" in his heart, he still must report to Tian Qi:

"We have no way to use heavy weapons, and artillery fire is even more impossible. If we attack forcefully, not only will we cause heavy casualties, but we also have no way to ensure that no harm is caused to Malacañang Palace."

"I am an intelligence officer." Tian Qi said lazily: "Lieutenant Colonel Musi has other tasks, otherwise it would be more appropriate for him to take command. However, you and Major Charles have been cooperating for a long time, and the specific combat deployment is up to you. Discuss it with Major Charles, just report back to me."

Lieutenant William was overjoyed. This was what he had been waiting for.

The lieutenant's eyes immediately fell on Meng Shaoyuan.

Meng Shaoyuan didn't say anything, he just kept holding his binoculars to observe Malacañang Palace and the Japanese military positions opposite.

He seemed to be thinking about something there.

"Major."

Lieutenant William's words interrupted Meng Shaoyuan's thoughts. He put down his telescope and said, "I need to talk to the Japanese commander opposite and help me find a brave person."

"I'll go."

As soon as Meng Shaoyuan finished speaking, Second Lieutenant Ter took the initiative to ask for help.

"You can." Meng Shaoyuan looked him up and down: "However, after meeting the Japanese commander, I will teach you how to say some things. Remember, don't make a mistake in a word.

Lieutenant, please rest assured, I can ensure that if you go in alive and do as I say, you will be able to come out alive! "
