Deputy Chief of the Japanese Manila Security Force, Japanese Army Center Left?
Meng Shaoyuan was simply dumbfounded.
Before, he had disguised himself and got a lot of Japanese military positions for himself.
But now, he is wearing the uniform of the Japanese Army's center left in a serious manner.
Although, this is also the third temporary appointment made by Iwabuchi.
But at least, the center-left is the center-left.
"Hey, are you wearing this monkey skin?"
As soon as he saw Meng Shaoyuan, Li Zhifeng's eyes widened immediately: "I said boss, you can do it."
"Captain Guchuan, you are dead." Meng Shaoyuan glared: "Your captain's work, when you see my center left, I cut off your little toothpick without saluting!"
"You are just a little toothpick, your whole family is a little toothpick!"
Li Zhifeng was unconvinced.
When at home, he was his own commander. ,
When I get to Manila, I will become a captain.
The results of it?
He actually became a center-left person, and even became his immediate superior in the Japanese army.
"I always said before that Tian Qi is the most successful latent spy around me." Meng Shaoyuan suddenly sighed deeply: "But I never expected that the most successful latent spy would be myself."
Li Zhifeng felt like vomiting.
I've seen shameless people, but I've never seen anyone so shameless.
Can you still have a little bit of shame?
Li Zhifeng didn't bother to say anything more to him: "What's the next step?"
Next step?
Meng Shao's plan, which he had not originally had, now came to mind as he became the center-left of the Japanese Army.
During the Battle of Manila, almost all the Japanese army evacuated, leaving only 17,000 marines and 4,000 army security forces.
Although they were unable to evacuate with the large troops, these four thousand army security forces showed extremely tenacious combat effectiveness.
Even Iwabuchi Sanji, who had no expectations for them before, was amazed by their strong determination to fight and their tenacity in fighting power.
In particular, the security forces were responsible for defending the St. Thomas Teaching Building, which was used to detain prisoners of war and civilians. The army security forces actually fought on a par with the US military, forcing the US military to negotiate with them and allowing them to leave and join the large Japanese army.
Among them, the US military was afraid of the nearly 6,000 hostages held in the building and did not dare to give it a try. However, in the face of the US military with a Sherman tank battalion, these security forces refused to retreat, which greatly exceeded everyone's expectations.
Because, the commander of this force is Shimata and Hiiro.
This person participated in the Battle of Songhu, Battle of Wuhan, and Battle of Xuzhou in China, and was wounded four times.
In the Japanese army, he had a resounding nickname:
Scarred Tiger.
It is said that this nickname was given because he was wounded four times and left five scars on his body.
Especially on the cheek, there is a clearly visible and shocking scar.
This person is extremely fierce and tenacious in combat, but he is not good at handling the relationship between superiors and subordinates. In particular, he often contradicts his immediate superiors and changes combat orders without authorization.
In fact, it is also a tradition in the Japanese army to offend superiors.
Therefore, after the last injury, he was considered no longer suitable for the front-line troops.
He was promoted to the left, but was assigned to the local army.
This can be regarded as a disguised exile.
The official career of Shimado and Hiiro has been completely closed.
After becoming the commander of the Manila Security Forces, Shimado and Hiiro were frustrated.
Especially the previous Masaharu Honma was even more dissatisfied with this person.
After Yamashita ordered the evacuation of Manila, Iwabuchi asked him three times whether he was willing to stay and defend Manila together.
Shimada and Hiiro agreed without even a second's hesitation.
.
He wants to prove in Manila that he is still the scarred tiger and can still create miracles on the battlefield!
The two war madmen hit it off.
Therefore, secondary important defense areas such as bridges and tunnels were all handed over to Shimado and Hiiro.
After accepting the order, Shimado and Hiiro not only fought fiercely, but also massacred Manila.
During the Battle of Manila, faced with constant attacks and deaths, the Japanese army used crossfire to vent all their anger and frustration on civilians, resulting in many brutal acts that were later known as the Manila Massacre.
Severe destruction, raping and massacre characterized the battle.
Among them, Shimado and Hiiro were directly involved in many massacres.
Meng Shao originally had nothing to do about this, but he was suddenly ordered to serve as the deputy commander of the security force?
"The orders Iwabuchi gave me three times were to assist and monitor the security forces." Meng Shaoyuan said slowly: "Although due to the current situation, Iwabuchi had to cooperate with Shimata and Hiiro three times, but in his heart, he still did not trust The opponent's.
My status is quite special. Iwabuchi was willing to live and die with Manila three times because of my "loyalty and bravery". He trusted me very much. However, I have two other identities. The first one is that I am a member of Prince Hengde.
Secondly, according to Takuma Shintani’s arrangement, I am from the Army. The conflict between the Japanese navy and land forces was irreconcilable. Therefore, as a prince's confidant and an army officer, it is easier for me to gain Dao Duo's trust. "
"Three identities?" Li Zhifeng blinked: "Are you going to make good use of these three identities and travel between Iwabuchi, Shimata and Hiiro?"
Meng Shaoyuan did not answer directly: "I heard that Shida Kazuhiro's favorite person is our Guan Erye, especially Guan Erye's character of being arrogant and not bullying. Therefore, he has an arrogant attitude towards his superiors and an arrogant attitude towards his subordinates. But it’s quite good. Maybe, this is something I can take advantage of.”
Li Zhifeng completely understood: "Are you going to kill this person? In this extraordinary period, I'm afraid it's too risky, right?"
Yes, if Shimada and Hiiro can be killed, it will be a heavy blow to the army security forces. Especially after losing a strong commander, it is hard to say what the security forces can do.
But it's too difficult.
After all, Iwabuchi needed Shimata and Hiiro three times!
"After I accepted the appointment, I reviewed the information of Shima Ta and Hiiro." Meng Shaoyuan said slowly: "This person was involved in the murder of our Chinese soldiers and civilians in Shanghai, Xuzhou, and Wuhan.
In Xuzhou alone, he ordered the massacre of 153 of our wounded soldiers and civilians at once. It was okay if I didn’t have the chance before, but now? "
The corners of his mouth moved slightly.
Li Zhifeng had been following him for too long, and he knew that such an action from the commander would mean that someone was going to be in trouble.
"Okay, you've made up your mind anyway." Li Zhifeng smiled bitterly: "The military police also left part of it. Serian Temple is really complaining all the time, but what's the use? You can't stay in Manila and leave your life here. In the city!"
