"Your Excellency, Commander, currently, fierce fighting is breaking out all over Manila."
In the Finance Building, Major Koiso reported: "Some places have lost contact with us, and the current situation is unknown. I am working hard to send people to obtain intelligence about the place.
Judging from the current situation, the Battle of Manila is entirely under the commander's plan. Every step forward by the US military will cost them the heaviest price. "
Iwabuchi said "oh" three times.
He doesn't care when Manila is lost, because it is inevitable.
What he cared about was how many Americans he could kill in Manila.
"Order to speed up the cleanup of Manila."
"Hai!"
Major Koiso knows very well what "cleaning work" is.
That was to kill as many civilians in Manila as possible.
This is part of Iwabuchi's plan to destroy Manila three times!
Too many civilians have been killed.
And the massacre has just begun.
“What happened to those people in the Department of Transportation building?”
Iwabuchi suddenly asked three times.
The Ministry of Transport building is relatively safe and far away from the front lines.
And it is precisely for this reason that some family members of Japanese soldiers and Japanese overseas Chinese who did not have time to evacuate Manila are currently housed in the Ministry of Transportation building.
"It's safer. I've seen it and the expatriates' mood is relatively stable."
"So." Iwabuchi asked calmly three times: "What do you think would happen to these people if the US military completely occupied Manila?"
Major Koji thought for a moment: "Sir, if this situation really occurs, I think the US military will not take action against these unarmed people, right?
There is a high probability that they will be deported back to Japan one by one after their identities are found out. There is no threat to their lives. "
"Really?" Iwabuchi sneered three times: "Do you really think the US military would do this?"
Major Koiso didn't know how to answer.
"They will be humiliated and tortured, just like we treated those prisoners of war!"
Iwabuchi's eyes gradually became cruel three times: "And they are all subjects of the empire, the subjects of the Empire of Japan, and they must not suffer such humiliation!"
Major Koiso was shocked. He vaguely guessed what Iwabuchi was going to do three times.
"Let them die with Manila."
When Iwabuchi finally said this three times, Major Koiso was frightened: "But they are all civilians."
"Civilians? They are also members of the Japanese Empire!" Iwabuchi's voice was full of madness three times: "I want those Americans to know that everyone in the Japanese Empire is willing to die for the war! When it comes time for them to serve the empire , it’s time to serve His Majesty the Emperor!”
Crazy, crazy!
Your Excellency, the Commander, has completely lost his mind!
He actually wants to attack the Japanese!
Major Koiso didn't care how many Filipino civilians he killed.
But killing your own people?
This person is really crazy!
"We must not let any of them fall into the hands of the Americans!"
Iwabuchi seemed to have regained his composure three times: "Xiaoiso, you can personally lead the people to carry out the execution. Although you did it, it seems that they were killed by Americans."
You bastard, why do you want me to do this?
Looks like he was killed by Americans?
There is simply no way to do it!
When the time comes, you may let yourself bear the responsibility for this dirty water.
Major Koiso is unwilling to do such a thing, but he cannot decide his own fate at all.
"Go ahead."
Iwabuchi's eyes fell on the map again for the third time: "Take a small team and go to the front line after completing the mission. Attack wherever the US military appears, and be prepared to destroy His Majesty the Emperor."
"Hai!"
Major Xiaoji walked out in despair.
A small group of Japanese troops has already assembled outside.
Iwabuchi Sanshi was already ready.
The leader was Second Lieutenant Honda.
This is also Iwabuchi's three confidants.
"Your Excellency, the entire team has finished lining up."
"lets go."
Major Xiaoji said helplessly.
…
Department of Transportation Building.
There are more than a thousand Japanese expats here.
Some of them are family members of Japanese military officers.
For example, Yanagisawa Ako and her sister-in-law Yanagisawa Hazuki.
Yazi's husband is a Japanese army officer.
Hazuki's husband is a Japanese businessman, but his true identity is that he belongs to the Japanese secret service.
During the continuous bombing of Manila by the US military, a house was directly hit by a bomb.
That's where Yazi and the others live.
As it happened, the two of them were out at the time, while their husbands were at home.
So when they came back, they sadly found that they had become widows at the same time.
Although it is difficult to accept, what can be done?
It is very hard for a woman who has lost her husband.
No one paid any attention to them anymore.
So when the Japanese were evacuated, no one informed them at all.
They were forced to become the last group of Japanese expatriates left in Manila.
After the US military launched an attack on Manila, they were arranged to enter the Ministry of Transportation building together.
Here are all Japanese expatriates who cannot afford to evacuate Manila.
Men, women, old and young, all.
They have no idea what their future destiny will be, and everything about them is out of their control.
Ako and Ye Yue can only depend on each other for life.
Here, there is a lack of water, a lack of food, a lack of everything.
Since they were placed here and some food was distributed to everyone, no one has cared about them anymore.
Now that the food is gone, they don't know what will happen tomorrow.
War, damn war, why can't it end soon?
…
"Your Excellency, we have arrived."
Lieutenant Honda stopped.
He was the most loyal Japanese officer who carried out Iwabuchi's three orders.
Let alone massacre civilians, even if he was asked to commit suicide, Second Lieutenant Honda would not hesitate to execute it.
Major Koiso looked at the Ministry of Transportation building opposite.
He pulled out his pistol.
At this moment, Second Lieutenant Honda was filled with murderous intent.
"boom"!
Major Koiso fired.
Lieutenant Honda covered his chest and looked at the other party in disbelief.
A small group of Japanese soldiers were all stunned.
What happened here?
"idiot!"
These were the last words Lieutenant Honda said in his life.
He fell in a pool of blood.
Major Koiso put away his gun and said expressionlessly: "Do you know your mission?"
The Japanese soldiers shook their heads in confusion.
"There are a thousand Imperial expats inside." Major Koiso pointed at the Ministry of Transportation building: "And your mission is to kill every Japanese expat inside!"
The Japanese soldiers were all shocked.
is this real?
Why do you want to kill your own people?
"When the war is over, if we are still alive, we will be despised by our own people."
Major Koiso said slowly: "I can't carry out such an order, I can't. So, I killed Honda. If any of you think I did something wrong, you can shoot me now and avenge Honda!"
