The situation has become increasingly worse for the Japanese troops in the Philippines. As for Laite Island, Yamashita Fengfumi is unwilling to continue to waste precious troops here.
However, the Japanese base camp didn't know what was going on. They ignored Yamashita Fengwen's advice and continued to send more troops to Laite Island.
This left the Japanese army trapped in Laite Island, suffering heavy losses every day. But when the base camp finally discovered something was wrong, it was already too late.
Nearly 100,000 troops were trapped on Laite Island. The failure of the Battle of Laite Island was inevitable for the Japanese army.
Once Laite Island is lost, the US military will quickly launch an attack on Luzon Island. The commander of the Japanese Fourteenth Front, Admiral Yamashita Fengfumi, knew that the Japanese combined fleet had almost completely defeated the family in the Battle of Laite Gulf, and it was impossible to provide any support to Luzon Island.
In the air? Even more hopeless. The Army Air Force stationed in the Philippines was exhausted in previous air battles, and the Hainan Air Force only had a few dozen aircraft left to carry out special attack operations.
Without sea and air support, trying to drive the Americans back to the sea is just nonsense.
Yamashita Fengfumi knew in his heart that defeat in the Philippines was inevitable, and all he could do was try his best to delay time.
American planes appeared again, swaggering across the Philippine sky, dropping bombs one after another.
Several planes swooped down, and a heavy rain of bullets hit the ground with dust. Japanese troops were constantly being blown up into the air.
The positions that the Japanese army had worked so hard to dig were instantly reduced to nothing after a round of bombing.
"Brother, what are you looking at?" Xiao Zhong asked. Today is
Meng Shaoyuan, who has been "recuperating" for a long time, is on his first day back at work. But as soon as he went out, he encountered a US air strike.
Meng Shaoyuan has been looking at the sky. Xiao Zhong's voice seemed to interrupt Meng Shaoyuan's train of thought: "Do you believe in reincarnation?" Xiao Zhong was startled.
Meng Shaoyuan said in a daze: "When the Anti-Japanese War just broke out, the Japanese planes were raging in the sky. Our brothers could only rely on their flesh and blood to withstand the torrent of steel from the sky, ground, and sea. Many times, as soon as I closed my eyes, With your eyes, you can see that our brothers have their own bodies to blow up Japanese tanks, use machine guns and rifles, and shoot helplessly into the sky. But now, have you seen it? It is the Japanese's turn to bear all this The difference is that we defended our country with our own blood and lives. However, no one can save the Japanese's failure."
"Brother, you have been on a real battlefield, but I have never been." Xiao Zhong's face was full of envy: "I have been thinking that if one day I can go to the battlefield and fight with the Japanese on the bayonet, even if I die, It’s worth it.”
"We are almost victorious, so why talk about death?" Meng Shaoyuan said with a smile: "Besides, this is also our battlefield!" As he said, he straightened his clothes: "Let's go, let's take over Manila!"... The death of Ouchi Yushi was a
"Accident", until now no one can say what happened. However, no one in the entire Manila secret service sympathized with his death.
After all, since this guy came here, he doesn't trust anyone and is wary of everyone. Such people are absolutely isolated in any unit.
on the contrary,
The return of "Shibu Taniguchi" made all the agents excited. After all, Lord Taniguchi is their favorite person.
The person presiding over the meeting was Takuma Shintani. Now, he is the real person in charge of intelligence work in Manila.
In extraordinary times, everything is under the command of the military. However, Takuma Shintani also knew very well that the person who controlled the intelligence in Manila was: Meng Shaoyuan!
As usual, Takuma Shintani expressed his condolences for the death of Ouchi Yushi, and then conveyed the order of the third commander of Iwabuchi.
It's nothing more than repeating some old tunes. Why must we immediately detect the Ouchi case, immediately detect the accumulated cases, and immediately restore the intelligence order in Manila?
Nothing new. At the same time, Takuma Shintani also officially announced the return of Shibu Taniguchi. This immediately aroused warm applause from the agents.
You can tell from the applause that these agents sincerely welcome Shibu Taniguchi's return. As soon as the meeting ended, Takuma Shintani left Meng Shaoyuan alone.
"The makeup on your face is a bit too much." Takuma Shintani frowned: "You've been wearing it for so long, is your face still so pale?"
"Senior, my injury almost turned into a fatal one." Meng Shaoyuan muttered: "Besides, isn't it okay for me to be weak?" Takuma Shintani smiled and shook his head. He also knew that when it comes to the power of words, He couldn't say anything about this guy: "Kazuo Iwahashi will arrive in Manila tomorrow, and the evacuation of Manila will begin soon." Of course Meng Shaoyuan knew this.
All of his secrets will be deeply hidden with the arrival of Iwahashi Kazuo.
"The Philippines is becoming more and more unsafe." Shintani Takuma then said: "I have an idea to let you leave with the 'Awa Maru' this time." Huh?
Senior, boss, please stop. Are you thinking about my death? No one knows better than Meng Shaoyuan
The ending of the "Awa Maru". It was a ship of death. My water skills are not good either, and I have no great interest in sleeping on the bottom of the sea.
Could it be that after a few decades, his bones were fished out, and when he looked at the nameplate, hey, it was called
The little devil of "Shibu Taniguchi". How did Takuma Shintani know what this guy was thinking: "Go to Japan, it is safer there, and there is no need to be buried there. I estimate that once the US military is freed up, it will directly launch an attack on the Japanese mainland. Where are you?" , can play a greater role." He said, staring at Meng Shaoyuan: "I want to send you to Hiroshima!" Meng Shaoyuan almost spit out.
Senior, uncle, young master, where did I offend you? Are you afraid that I'm here?
How about escaping death on the "Awa Maru" and then going to Hiroshima to meet the big mushroom? But Takuma Shintani said: "In Hiroshima, I will help you arrange a new position, and at the same time, I can also..."
"Senior, listen to me." Meng Shaoyuan quickly interrupted him: "In Manila, I have more important tasks to complete. I hope I can stay here and fight side by side with you." I'm afraid that the other party will still want to do it. After persuading himself, Meng Shaoyuan hurriedly said: "Don't worry, senior, I know how to protect myself. I will live well until victory." Takuma Shintani was helpless. He didn't want to let this young man be buried here. !
