Chapter 2860 Secret Cooperation
Peter Lin!
"Perhaps the greatest secret agent America has ever had."
This is what US President Roosevelt said about Tianqi.
He almost single-handedly saved the world from fighting against the Sith!
Saved the Allies from possible defeat.
He can get a huge medal!
With Tian Qi's outstanding performance, the status of the US Strategic Intelligence Service suddenly became important.
At the same time, it also changed the disadvantageous situation of being suppressed for a long time in the competition with the FBI.
President Roosevelt personally ordered to allocate a huge sum of money to the Strategic Intelligence Service so that it could play a greater role in the war.
Director Donovan personally sent a telegram to Tian Qi and said in private many times:
"Peter Lin will undoubtedly occupy a very important position in the fate of the Office of Strategic Services, which may be short-term or long-term."
Director Donovan praised Tian Qi so much. In addition to Tian Qi's many outstanding missions, his long-term friendship with Donovan, and the fact that Tian Qi has the support of a very powerful family in the United States behind him, there is another important reason.
Tian Qi brings the Chinese people's wisdom, tactics, and way of doing things to the extreme.
In a separate report to President Roosevelt, he emphatically emphasized that the successful defeat of the enemy's conspiracy this time was all due to the wise leadership of Director Donovan.
Well, the credit must be given to the leadership.
While winning a deeper friendship from Director Donovan, it can also give President Roosevelt a humble and prudent image.
After Director Donovan learned about this incident, he reciprocated the favor.
Tian Qizai was subsequently appointed as the top person in charge of the Southwest Pacific Theater of the U.S. Office of Strategic Services, with the highest authority to independently handle intelligence, appoint personnel, and resolve emergencies.
At the same time, in recognition of Tian Qi's heroic performance, he was personally nominated and approved by President Roosevelt, and Tian Qi was promoted to the rank of colonel in the US Army.
Colonel Peter Lin!
"Colonel? That's too low. Your outstanding performance should at least be awarded to General."
Tian Qi's friend, Douglas MacArthur, commander-in-chief of the U.S. Far Eastern Army and commander of the U.S. Allied Forces in the Southwest Pacific Theater, was very dissatisfied with such an appointment. When he saw Tian Qi again at his headquarters, he complained like this.
Yes, Tian Qi played a huge role in the evacuation of MacArthur and his family from the Philippines.
At the same time, Tian Qi also provided a large amount of intelligence to MacArthur and personally armed a large number of guerrillas in Southeast Asia.
MacArthur had unlimited trust in his friend.
"Nothing should be done in a hurry." Tian Qi didn't seem to care particularly: "Your Excellency, Commander, I am now in charge of the Intelligence Bureau's work in the Southwest Pacific Theater, and I can still work with you.
I believe that under the premise of our cooperation and gaining the trust of His Excellency the Commander, my road to promotion will become bright."
"Yes, Peter." MacArthur said solemnly: "Our friendship will never deteriorate."
"Then, I will report the first information to you." Tian Qi's expression became extremely serious: "An information that only you know."
"Okay, please close the door."
MacArthur knew Tian Qi very well. Since he said so, this information must be crucial.
"The Japanese plundered a large amount of wealth in the Far East, most of which was stored in the Philippines." Tian Qi finally got to the point.
When Meng Shaoyuan gave him the task of assisting in transporting wealth, it was specifically stated that MacArthur would play a crucial role.
MacArthur will be the key to whether the wealth can be transported out smoothly.
Moreover, Meng Shaoyuan also said with certainty that MacArthur would definitely be interested in this wealth and would definitely participate in the plan to smuggle the wealth.
It's smuggling!
Although Tian Qi didn't understand why Meng Shaoyuan was so sure, what he could firmly believe was that Meng Shaoyuan's plans had never gone wrong.
Therefore, Tian Qi tried his best to win MacArthur's friendship.
"Yes, those Japanese monkeys will continue to use this wealth for the war." MacArthur was obviously a little annoyed.
Among U.S. military generals, no one hated the Japanese more than MacArthur.
It was those damn Japanese monkeys who drove him out of the Philippines, and MacArthur vowed to take revenge!
Tian Qi smiled: "Douglas, why can't you turn this wealth into ours?"
"What?" MacArthur was startled: "What do you mean? Oh my God, you are so crazy. Not to mention how difficult it is, but now, the Japanese monkeys still control the Philippines, how can we transport that wealth out?"
"I'll think of a way, I'll do it." Tian Qi said calmly: "I'm sure we can't get all the wealth, but what about part of it? That will also be a huge astronomical figure."
"Do you have a plan?" All MacArthur's interests were aroused.
"Yes, I have a plan." Tian Qi said: "First, you must use your privileges to block the sea and not allow any Japanese ship to leave, including merchant ships.
We want to ensure that the Japanese cannot transport this wealth out and keep it in the Philippines. After that, please wait for my information. Once the time is right, we will take action immediately."
Although MacArthur didn't know what Tian Qi's plan was, he believed in this man: "I will fully assist you, Peter. Only you, me, and God know this matter."
At this moment, Tian Qi suddenly had a bolder plan in mind.
In Meng Shaoyuan's previous plan, the target was seven tons of gold.
But if we can get MacArthur's full support, why can't we be more courageous?
More than ten tons, or even dozens of tons of gold?
In the future, after victory in the war, MacArthur will return to the Philippines.
When that time comes, he will definitely dig wildly for Japan's treasures in the Philippines.
On such a large scale, it certainly cannot be hidden from the US government. Of course, the US government will also be directly involved in the excavation.
The bulk of it must have been taken away by the United States.
But it's not impossible to do some small actions together with MacArthur.
However, the safest way is to follow Meng Shaoyuan's plan, make it seamless, and let part of the gold mysteriously disappear before the end of the war.
"Just go ahead and do it, Peter." MacArthur no longer hesitated: "No matter what kind of help you need, you can come directly to me."
Tian Qi knew that he had received full assistance from MacArthur and even the entire US military in the Pacific Theater.
That batch of gold is waving towards me.
