"asshole!"
Cabanatu Headquarters.
Iwamori Yuyuki's face was livid, and the veins on his hands burst out, as if he wanted to vent all his anger from it.
His anger was justified.
Because just an hour ago, the body of another Japanese soldier was found in a small alley.
This is the fourth Japanese soldier to die in the past few days.
Before, Iwamori Yuyuki didn’t think so.
In Cabanatu, there were also those who resisted the Japanese army.
There will always be occasional resistance from the oppressed and massacred locals.
At that time, Iwamori Yuyuki just randomly executed a few locals as a warning.
But now, four Japanese soldiers have died in succession, and the problem has become serious.
This was an organized and premeditated assassination against the Japanese troops in Cabanatuan!
Extremely bad in nature!
"Kill, must kill!"
Uemura, who was summoned to the meeting, was murderous: "The life of one imperial soldier is worth a hundred of those dirty and despicable slaves!"
This was the massacre at Chi Guoguo's request.
Meng Shaoyuan frowned.
Is there still a resistance organization in Cabanatu?
But I didn’t have any information about this before?
According to what Li Lun said, he was the only intelligence officer left in Cabanatu.
So where did these assassinations come from?
This will have a negative impact on the plan to rescue prisoners of war.
"Your Excellency Commander, Uemura-kun, I do not recommend this."
Meng Shaoyuan said.
Tsukasa Uemura glared at him with his eternally blood-red eyes: "Taniguchi-kun, do you have sympathy for these despicable slaves?"
"Ah, no." Meng Shaoyuan said lightly: "Even if all the Filipinos here die, I won't have any regrets. But killing so many people suddenly may have a bad effect. "
"Really?" Iwamori Yuyuki looked at him with interest: "I would like to hear your thoughts."
Meng Shaoyuan said calmly: "Your Excellency Commander, we know that although the US military is not advancing very fast, it is advancing towards Manila in an orderly manner, and Cabanatua will usher in those damn American veterans in the near future.
We need those Filipinos to assist us. The sudden onset of massacre will only make them fight to the death. A rabbit will know how to resist when it is cornered. Facing the bayonets of the empire, it is difficult to imagine what kind of resistance those untouchables would make.
If there is unrest in Cabanatuan and the Americans know about it, I think they will respond appropriately. "
Iwamori Yuyuki nodded slightly.
Such resistance incidents occurred one after another when the Japanese army first occupied the Philippines.
To this end, the Japanese army adopted a two-pronged approach of massacre and appeasing the middle and high-level officials of the Philippines.
This made the Philippine resistance less fierce.
In Cabanatu, Iwamori Yuyuki's troops were obviously insufficient.
They not only have to defend Cabanatu, but also take care of more than 700 American prisoners of war. Iwamori Yuyuki is already stretched thin.
It would obviously be unwise to provoke a large-scale resistance from Cabanatu at this time.
However, the deaths of the four Japanese soldiers must be explained to other subordinates.
"I agree with what you said, Taniguchi-kun." Iwamori Yuyuki said coldly: "But the soldiers of the empire cannot die in vain."
Meng Shaoyuan knew what he was thinking: "Your Excellency, Commander, you know what I do."
This is an agent from Manila.
Iwamori Yuyuki then asked: "Are you sure you can break the eucalyptus?"
"Yes, Commander, I am sure."
"I need time, I can't delay it indefinitely."
"Ten days!"
Meng Shaoyuan thought about it in his mind.
If he could delay the arrival of the US commandos, how could he care who killed the Japanese?
"No, it's too long." Iwamori Yuyuki flatly refused: "I can only give you three days."
Holy shit!
Meng Shaoyuan cursed in his heart.
I am not familiar with Kabanatu at all.
I can't tell the difference between north, south and south.
I know almost no one.
Three days?
Where can I find this murderer?
Iwamori Yuyuki didn't care what the other party was thinking: "In three days, I need to see the murderer. If you can't make it big, then I must take Uemura's advice, even if it will cause resistance from those untouchables."
"Okay, Your Excellency, Commander." Meng Shaoyuan said bravely: "In three days, I will hand over the murderer to you to pay homage to the dead imperial soldiers."
…
Three days?
How to break the eucalyptus?
Meng Shaoyuan didn't panic.
If that doesn't work, you can only find a scapegoat.
At least this would avoid an inhumane massacre.
Although Meng Shaoyuan has no feelings for the Philippines, it is his duty to avoid a tragedy.
It's a pity that even Xie Changcheng is gone now.
There is no one available around me.
Except for that Liron.
This is a poor man struggling on the verge of death.
Can you expect him to be of any help?
But at this point, apart from him, what other options could Meng Shaoyuan have?
"The Japanese are dead? Four?"
After hearing the news, Li Lun said coldly: "It's a pity that I can't find wine, otherwise I think we should really celebrate."
Meng Shaoyuan knew very well this man's anger towards the Japanese: "I also think we should celebrate, but if we don't find this man as soon as possible, it will cause a retaliatory massacre by Yuki Iwamori, and I only have three days."
As he spoke, he paused: "Are there any other forces in the entire Kabanatu?"
"I haven't heard of it." Li Lun shook his head: "Based on the current situation, I am the only one here in Cabanatu."
Meng Shaoyuan's brows knitted together tightly.
Who is this mysterious assassin?
"I know that I should protect my compatriots." Li Lun sighed deeply: "I will help you find some information, but don't have high hopes."
"Thanks."
Meng Shaoyuan's answer was a bit perfunctory.
Li Lun is not actually an intelligence agent in the strict sense.
He is only at the bottom of the entire intelligence chain.
His importance only gradually became apparent after the deaths of other Cabanatu intelligence agents.
Even so, he could not provide any more information.
More importantly, he has a physical defect that renders him essentially unable to provide more useful help.
What made him ahead of Meng Shaoyuan was simply his familiarity with the local area.
But to find this assassin, just relying on familiarity with the terrain is of little use.
It seems that you have to rely on yourself.
The question is, why did this assassin suddenly and mysteriously appear?
What is his real purpose in assassinating Japanese soldiers one after another?
If it's organized, that's fine.
If it were just a personal act, it would be almost impossible to find this person in three days.
In the end, it may just be to find a scapegoat to save the lives of more innocent people!
