Lieutenant William really had a headache about the minefield problem.
He couldn't think of a good solution at all.
Meng Shaoyuan took out a cigarette, hid in the corner, lit it, and took a puff:
"Maybe there's a way?"
"What can you do, Major?"
Meng Shaoyuan said nothing, but just turned his attention to the group of Japanese prisoners of war.
Lieutenant William was startled, and then he understood what "Major Charles" meant.
God, he actually used this method.
"Major." Lieutenant William lowered his voice: "This is a violation of the Geneva Convention."
"Geneva Convention? Why do we violate the Geneva Convention?" Meng Shaoyuan looked surprised: "Lieutenant, what are you thinking? Are you going to let us be as cruel as those Japanese monkeys and massacre prisoners of war?
No, no, I am an upright person and would never do that. "
Lieutenant William was extremely ashamed.
Why am I thinking so wildly that the major would do such a thing?
Li Zhifeng on the side looked like it had nothing to do with him.
Wait, wait, Lieutenant.
With the young master like this, you can see whether he will do it or not.
Is he an upright man?
This guy is full of bad stuff.
Meng Shaoyuan took another drag on his cigarette and said slowly: "The Japanese resistance in Manila is too strong, and the Ranger battalion does not have enough troops to remove every Japanese stronghold.
I suggest that it might be useful to let these Japanese prisoners of war shout to persuade them to surrender. Of course, in order to avoid being shot early by the Japanese who resisted, let these prisoners of war go to the front. "
Lieutenant William was stunned.
Isn't this the same as letting prisoners of war step on landmines?
"Bogo Lie School, we once successfully persuaded a large group of Japanese troops to surrender. Maybe it will work this time, right?"
Meng Shaoyuan said with a smile: "We are just trying to avoid casualties and use more peaceful means to liberate Manila."
"Ah, yes, Major." Lieutenant William finally understood.
The purpose is the same, but the means used are different, and the results will be different.
Only the soldiers on the front line know best what is happening on the front line.
Even if someone reports in the future, they will only need to bite him to death and let the prisoners of war persuade them to surrender.
Even if there is an investigation, it will be investigated again and again, but it will just end without a cure.
How could Major Charles think of such a wicked... no, such a good idea?
"Understood, Major."
Lieutenant William went to do it excitedly.
"Old Li, call Jingshan over." Meng Shaoyuan blinked and said.
…
Twenty-four Japanese prisoners of war were gathered.
When they heard that they were going to recruit Japanese troops and that they had to be at the front of the team, they suddenly became panicked.
Not to mention whether they would be accidentally killed by their former companions, even those landmines would kill more than half of them.
Landmines are laid individually by each unit.
The rest of the troops had no idea where the friendly mines were buried.
The landmines laid by the Japanese army cannot tell whether the person stepping on them is the Japanese army or the American army!
"This is driving us to death!"
Noma Takao protested loudly: "This is a blatant violation of the Geneva Convention. I refuse to implement this order."
"No, no, sir, you are wrong." Lieutenant William was not angry, but said with a smile: "I am only asking you to persuade your comrades to surrender, and I will never ask you to die.
Americans are the most chivalrous, and we will never violate the Geneva Convention as openly as you do! "
"No, never!"
Seeing the commander speaking, the Japanese prisoners of war became bolder.
"boom"!
At this moment, gunfire rang out, and a Japanese prisoner of war with the largest throat fell to the ground.
The Japanese prisoners of war were shocked.
The US military immediately raised their guns.
Then, they saw clearly the shooter:
Kageyama Nosuke!
"You, you shot prisoners of war!" Takao Noma's face turned pale: "You are trampling on the Geneva Convention!"
Are you talking about the Geneva Convention now?
Lieutenant William curled his lips in disdain.
What about the American prisoners of war imprisoned in Cabanatuan, in Manila, and all over the Philippines?
When did you comply with the Geneva Convention?
"They didn't shoot him, I shot him." Kageyama Nosuke walked up to him and said slowly: "I am Captain Kageyama Nosuke of the Intelligence Section of the Tenth Army of the Empire of Japan in the Philippines. Including former commander General Masaharu Honma. Inside, many people know me.
Iwabuchi refused to carry out the orders of His Excellency General Yamashita Fengwen three times, which aroused the anger of His Excellency the General. Therefore, I was sent to carry out the task of eliminating traitors. My personal actions only represent the Tenth Army of the Empire of Japan and His Excellency General Yamashita Tobumi, and have nothing to do with the Americans. "
Noma Takao was stunned.
Lieutenant William was speechless.
Well, it must be Major Charles's trick again.
Lieutenant William never dreamed that the major would use Japanese against Japanese.
But I have to admit that this is a quite effective method.
Therefore, he chose not to interfere and let the Japanese solve the problem themselves.
If something goes wrong, just push Kageyama Nosuke.
At this time, Kageyama Nosuke stepped forward and pointed his gun at Takao Noma:
"Now, I order you to immediately lead your subordinates to persuade the enemies who continue to resist to surrender. My patience is very limited, and I only give you ten seconds!"
Well made choice.
Refuse and you will die now.
Just now, Kageyama Nosuke had personally shot a prisoner of war to show his determination.
Moreover, the US military obviously does not want to interfere.
Accepting his threat, at least, there is a chance of saving one's life.
At least you can pray that those landmines won't blow up you.
"I will persuade you to surrender." Noma Takao's eyes were full of anger, helplessness and helplessness: "You are also Japanese, why do you do this?"
Kageyama Nosuke did not answer.
Yes, he is Japanese.
But he stopped thinking of himself as Japanese long ago.
Even after his wife was killed by the Japanese, he was perhaps the Japanese who hated the Japanese the most!
Meng Shaoyuan came over and patted him on the shoulder: "After the war is over, I think you will definitely not be able to use the name Kageyama Nosuke."
"I have already thought of a name." Jingshan Nosuke said: "My surname is Xin, hard-working Xin. My name is Xin Jingzhi. I am a Chinese. Fortunately, I have studied Chinese hard before."
Hard work, hard work, is also the "new" of Takuma Shintani!
"Perhaps, you have to choose an English name." Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "Because, soon, our battlefield will shift to the United States, a country that is unfamiliar to us."
"I will go find the teacher." Jingshan Nosuke said calmly: "I know that the teacher has a new mission and a new battlefield. I will be with the teacher, no matter what happens in the future!"
