The people will never know the truth. All they knew was that it was their last evacuation. They would never know that the evacuation of high-level officials was actually happening almost every day.
Planes leave Manila quietly every day under the cover of darkness. On the plane, it is either important people or important supplies.
This is a right only enjoyed by high-level people! At six o'clock in the evening, a transport plane was already waiting there.
No combat escort. Once it encounters an American aircraft in the sky, the transport aircraft can only become a living target.
But there is no way around it. The Philippine Army Air Forces fleet was depleted. Now, only a few transport planes are left.
They had no choice but to take off at night. In the event of any emergency, I can only wish everyone on board good luck.
Even these transport planes hardly have any idle time at all. Loading supplies to the aircraft has already begun.
In view of the serious shortage of manpower, the secret service and gendarmerie are now responsible for airport security. Meng Shaoyuan, Tian Qi, and Li Zhifeng watched silently.
Those slightly panicked transporters all showed that the end of the Japanese army was coming.
"Where is Xilian?" Meng Shaoyuan suddenly asked.
"Xilian Sizhen was also retained." Li Zhifeng smiled sarcastically: "There are not many people in the gendarmerie, so it did not arouse the loyalty of the army superiors. Xilian Sizhen complained almost every day, why can't he follow the army? The troops evacuate together.”
"Evacuate?" Meng Shaoyuan also laughed: "It's nothing more than delaying the time of his death."
"Your Excellency Taniguchi, Your Excellency Taniguchi." A man carrying a box hurried towards here. That was Dr. Tanaka.
Military doctor Tanaka was covered in sweat, obviously from running all the way.
"Military Doctor Tanaka, don't be nervous." Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "It's still early to board the plane." Military Doctor Tanaka breathed a sigh of relief: "I was just afraid that I wouldn't be able to catch up. Thank you so much, Mr. Taniguchi." Tanaka The reason why the military doctor was willing to help Meng Shaoyuan do so many things was because
"Shibu Taniguchi" once promised him that he would definitely send him to leave Manila and board the
"Awa Maru" number. However, when the list of the last batch of evacuees came out, Dr. Tanaka was disappointed to find that his name was not on it.
When he found Shibuya Taniguchi, he comforted him that there was no need to worry, there would be a chance. When he came, Military Doctor Tanaka thought that the other party was just perfunctory with him.
But I never expected that Shibuya Taniguchi would actually fulfill his promise.
"I will not be sorry to anyone who helps me." Meng Shaoyuan glanced at Dr. Tanaka's suitcase: "Is this all you need to bring?"
"Ah, yes, as long as the person is still alive, it will be fine." Military doctor Tanaka said flatteringly: "Here are the things you gave me." Those are ten gold bars.
"Okay, get ready to go." Military doctor Tanaka nodded and left. Looking at his back, Meng Shaoyuan smiled.
you are so
"Important" person, someone who knows so many of my secrets, how could I not let you board
What about the "Awa Maru"? After a while, a car drove up.
"We're here." Tian Qi said in a low voice, and then rushed forward. That's when Nakahama Matsutomi and his younger brother Nakahama Shinta arrived.
"That's great, Hahara-kun, you are really here." When he saw Tian Qi, Nakahama Matsutomi was obviously relieved.
he is too scared
"Habara Ikko" did not appear here.
"Since I promised you, how could I not show up?" Tian Qi carefully placed a boarding permit in Nakahama Shinta's hand: "Be sure to keep it, this is the only way to board the 'Awa Maru' Opportunity!" Nakahama Shinta nodded gratefully.
"Let's go." Tian Qi led them towards the plane.
"Hahara-kun!" Li Zhifeng appeared in front of him.
"Captain Guchuan." Tian Qi greeted politely. Li Zhifeng glanced at the Nakahama brothers: "Are they the ones who want to board the plane?"
"Yes, it's him." Tian Qi called Nakahama Shinta to his side. Li Zhifeng suddenly sighed: "I admire you very much, Hahara-kun!"
"It goes without saying, Captain Guchuan." Tian Qi interrupted him: "Then, I will take him to the boarding waiting area."
"Okay." Nakahama Shinta turned around: "Brother, goodbye!"
"Go, go!" Nakahama Matsutomi waved his hand. When they left for a while, Nakahama Matsutomi asked curiously: "Captain Kogawa, what did you mean just now?" Li Zhifeng looked hesitant to speak, and after a while he whispered: "Don't you know Well, Ikko Hahara gave up his opportunity to your brother."
"What?" Nakahama Matsutomi was shocked: "What's going on?"
"There is only one position." Li Zhifeng sighed again and said: "Originally, according to the plan, Mr. Hahara went to Sumatra to perform the mission, but Mr. Hahara found Director Taniguchi. After his argument, Director Taniguchi finally decided , giving up his quota, he can be freely given to anyone." Nakahama Matsutomi trembled slightly.
He never thought that there was such a thing. I just did what I was supposed to do, but I didn't expect that this unintentional act of mine would actually receive such a reward.
Hahara Ikko was willing to give up the opportunity to escape and gave it to himself. How should I repay him!
He saw his brother being taken to the waiting area for boarding the plane. He saw Tian Qi walking towards him.
"Hahara-kun, can you take a step to speak?" Tian Qi nodded and walked with him. Nakahama Matsutomi hesitated for a moment and said, "Hahara-kun, have you given up your opportunity?"
"You talkative Guchuan." Tian Qi shook his head: "There is no need to take it to heart, Chief Nakahama!"
"No, I originally only had one younger brother." Nakahama Mitsutomi stared at him: "But now, I have another younger brother, and that is you, Hahara-kun. I know that I don't have the ability to send you away from Manila, but when Those Americans entering Manila, I will stand in your way."
"Don't be like this, Chief Nakahama, no, Mr. Nakahama!" Tian Qi said emotionally: "It's you who do good first. If we really have no way to leave, I hope we can die side by side!" Nakahama Dufu nodded vigorously.
Damn it, this scene arranged by the young master really moved Nakahama Mitsutomi. Everything is acting there.
Including the scene with Li Zhifeng just now! Boarding begins. Meng Shaoyuan and Tian Qi saw that Military Doctor Tanaka and Shinta Nakahama kept waving goodbye to them.
Goodbye, Dr. Tanaka! Goodbye, Nakahama Shinta. Only Meng Shaoyuan knows best that they have just left one place of death and will enter another!
