The shrill air-raid siren instantly woke up Sumalaja Jay.

The Allied bombing came as promised.

At a recent stage, for some unknown reason, the Allied air force began to bomb Sumalaga indiscriminately.

Its "status" is almost on par with Manila.

Finally, Sumalaga was no longer as panicked as he was when he was bombed for the first time.

Civilians looked for hiding places, hoping to escape the disaster.

The air defense forces began to fight back desperately.

Mizushima Yukihei murmured curses.

The more chaotic this situation is, the more likely it is that emergencies will occur in Sumalaga.

And these are all his responsibilities as the commander of the military police.

Meng Shaoyuan also collapsed a little.

Damn it, is there any need to bomb like this?

Bombs are falling like raindrops. If one of them falls next to you, you will be responsible for your life.

Don't die in the hands of the Japanese, but be bombed to death by your own people.

Where can I go to reason? Jay

Sumalaga has few good anti-aircraft shelters.

Also, you must not fucking bomb Tunnel No. 6.

If any warehouse is bombed by you, Master, I will fight for my life with you!

Finally, I was lucky enough to survive this bombing.

There are blazing fires everywhere in Sumalaga.

The pungent smell of gunpowder smoke filled the air, mixed with the smell of blood and made people sick.

"Americans are crazy." Jay

Mizushima Yukihei looked at the sky and said in a daze.

"Americans are crazy." Meng Shaoyuan gritted his teeth: "They are all crazy!"

"Report, Itano Daizuo has arrived."

"Is that so? Welcome His Excellency Dazuo immediately."

Mizushima Yukihei then said to Meng Shaoyuan: "Come with me to welcome His Excellency Dazuo."

This is the Japanese commander Daishi Itano who was stationed in Sumalaga.

Since arriving in Sumalaga, Meng Shaoyuan has been with Mizushima Yukihei, and he has never seen this great leftist.

I saw a car, protected by two trucks filled with heavily armed soldiers, appearing outside the Gendarmerie Headquarters.

Taishi Itano was the first to get out of the passenger seat.

This is wrong. Why is he sitting in the passenger seat?

Meng Shaoyuan and Mizushima Yukihei were both stunned.

Just as they were about to step forward to greet them, Itano Daishi stopped them with a wave of his hand.

Then, he quickly opened the rear door.

Two people came out one after another. Jie

The last one to come out was wearing the title of Japanese Army Lieutenant General!

Meng Shaoyuan and Mizushima Yukihei were shocked.

In the entire Philippines, there is only one Army Lieutenant General:

Commander of the Tenth Army of the Japanese Army and Chairman of the Philippine Association, Masaharu Honma!

The two people walked straight into the headquarters without even looking at Meng Shaoyuan and Mizushima Yukihei.

At this time, Taishi Itano, who was following behind, passed by the two of them and whispered:

"Be on full alert. Your Excellency the Commander is here. We also encountered American bombings on the way!" Jie

…

It’s really Masaharu Honma who has arrived!

And coming with him was Major General Takuma Shintani, the head of the Intelligence Section of the Tenth Army of the Japanese Army!

In view of the recent unusual behavior of the Allied forces, which not only targeted Manila but also launched indiscriminate bombings throughout the Philippines, this unexpected situation quickly attracted the attention of the Tenth Army Headquarters.

Masaharu Honma judged that such a scale of bombing was likely to have some hidden military purpose.

And he decided to conduct an inspection of Japanese troops stationed in major cities in the Philippines to deal with emergencies.

"Your Majesty Commander, this is very dangerous." Jay

Mizushima Yukihei only felt a little scared: "The Allied bombing is very fierce. If any accident occurs, our death will not be enough to atone for our sins."

"A little bombing, there is nothing to worry about." Masaharu Honma said nonchalantly: "In China, I participated in many battles including the Battle of Wuhan, and I experienced too many artillery bombings."

I'll blame your ancestors!

Meng Shaoyuan cursed in his heart.

That's right, you're the one who succeeded Yamashita Fengfumi as the commander of the 27th Division, you piece of shit, and wantonly massacred our Wuhan soldiers and civilians!

It was you who openly released poisonous gas in the Qihui area northeast of Hejian, Hebei Province, killing and wounding more than 500 officers and soldiers of our 18th Route Army!

Masaharu Honma would never have imagined that there would be a Chinese in the Philippines who wanted to get rid of him immediately! Jay

"Everyone." Masaharu Honma looked serious: "Don't say any more polite and hypocritical words. The Allied bombing is so uncharacteristic that there must be some hidden military purpose.

All our departments in the Philippines should be more vigilant to guard against any accidents. I have decided to carry out raids on local guerrillas in various parts of the Philippines!"

Meng Shaoyuan heard this familiar word again:

Sweep!

The mopping-up work in Sumalaga was mainly carried out by the army of Itano Daishi Daizuo.

As for the gendarmerie, after the sweep began, they ensured the safety of Sumalaga and did not give any opportunity for the resistance organizations to take advantage of.

This also made Meng Shaoyuan and Mizushima Yukihei breathe a long sigh of relief.

Otherwise, if Mizushima Yukihei also participates in the sweep, it will cause great trouble to the gold smuggling work.

After assigning the specific sweep tasks, Honma Masaharu said: "Shintani-kun, I'll leave it to you."

Takuma Shintani, who had said nothing since he came in, had a solemn look on his face: "According to our intelligence personnel and the information passed from the Allies, MacArthur organized the army to conduct an island seizing exercise on La Prador Island.

La Prador Island is very similar to Reyintai Island in the Philippines in terms of terrain and climate, so we have reason to believe that the Allied forces are likely to launch a landing operation in the Philippines in the near future!"

No, not that fast.

Meng Shaoyuan was thinking in his mind.

The Allies have not yet achieved complete control of the sea and are unlikely to launch the Battle of the Philippines so soon.

Most likely, it was our own people who staged a good show there to lure the Japanese into taking the bait.

"Those people in the navy are unreliable." Takuma Shintani's tone was full of contempt for the Japanese navy: "We cannot rush into operations after the navy has completely lost its control of the sea.

Therefore, combat preparations can begin now. Your Excellency, the Commander, has decided to turn all cities in the Philippines into solid fortresses so that the enemy must pay a heavy price for every step forward!

And my main task is to completely eradicate the resistance elements in the Philippines and wipe them out of all cities. The first stop, I will start from Sumalaga!"

Holy shit!

Meng Shaoyuan cursed again in his heart.

What are you doing in the Philippines? Jay

Doesn't this make my job more difficult?

Mizushima Yukihei said carefully: "Your Excellency, Commander, Your Excellency, Section Chief, we have a long journey, please take a rest first?"

Masaharu Honma was indeed a little tired and did not refuse the kindness of his subordinates.

When he stood up and passed by Meng Shaoyuan, Shintani Takuma suddenly stopped: "Who are you?"

"Yamayuri Club, Inspector, Shibu Taniguchi."
