Meng Shaoyuan knew very well that both Aguinaldo and Rojas would eventually be pardoned.

This is the American strategy in the Philippines.

More and more parties are competing and arguing with each other, which is what Americans are most happy to see.

Of course, the subsequent emergence of the powerful figure Marcos was something Americans did not expect.

However, this did not prevent the Americans from colonizing the Philippines.

However, now listening to Kaveri's words, it seems that there is something else in it.

Meng Shaoyuan actually understood this very well.

Old MacArthur entertained Aguinaldo, but in a blink of an eye, Aguinaldo defected to the Japanese and persuaded MacArthur to surrender.

In MacArthur's view, this was undoubtedly a kind of betrayal.

Although MacArthur had nothing to do with Aguinaldo due to the needs of U.S. national policy, this was certainly unacceptable to MacArthur.

This can be seen from MacArthur's subsequent attitude towards Aguinaldo.

"Colonel, at the beginning, old Mr. MacArthur gave Aguinaldo too much kindness. Of course you know this with your wisdom."

Obviously, Cavelli also admired Meng Shao's understanding of the situation in the Philippines. After complimenting him, he continued: "Currently, Aguinaldo is being held in prison, trying to atone for his crimes. He is

The Philippines has made an irreparable mistake."

In fact, the so-called detention is nothing more than being placed under house arrest in Malacañang Palace just like Roxas.

Their lives are not threatened at all.

Caveri continued there: "I was wondering, if something unexpected happened to Aguinaldo, would it be one less trouble for the current Philippine government or General MacArthur?"

Meng Shaoyuan and Fabio were both shocked at the same time.

What does Cavelli mean by actually wanting to get rid of Aquilido?

crazy.

Aquilido's death will definitely cause countless troubles.

Even though he betrayed the Philippine Revolution.

Even though he became a traitor.

But he still has some supporters.

Everyone knows that he is imprisoned in Malacañang Palace, and any accident that happens to him will become a trigger.

Fabio is an old man and has seen too many people and things in his life.

At this time, when he heard this, Fabio suddenly stood up and said with a smile: "I can't sit for too long, I have to go out and move around."

With that said, he walked out without waiting for the two of them to speak.

He is the head of Citibank's Manila branch, and he can be involved in many things, but as Caverly said, his first reaction is to stay out of it.

Of course, Cavelli has shown his "attitude". He did not hide such a confidential matter from Fabio, which also proves his "friendship".

As if expecting Fabio to leave, Cavelli seemed confident: "Colonel, if you trust me, please leave this matter to me. I swear, you will not be involved."

How could Meng Shaoyuan believe so easily: "Really, I am a soldier. Soldiers do everything with a plan. I am very willing to hear what your plan is, Mr. Stan Rockley."

Cavelli smiled slightly: "When Aquilido betrayed their so-called revolution, he hurt countless people, including his once staunch supporters, followers, and his right-hand man, Bert Jardine.

Mele.

After Aquilido was arrested by MacArthur Senior, Bert still walked out of his hiding place and was willing to live and die with Aquilido. However, what he didn't expect was that Aquilido actually surrendered to MacArthur and received a sum of money.

With a generous reward, I left the Philippines.

This caused Burt so much pain that he refused to surrender to the Americans and went on a hunger strike to express his will. After Burt's death, Aquilido did not make any statement, as if the person who died was a man like him.

People who have nothing to do with each other.

Later, when the Japanese occupied the Philippines, Aquilido turned to express his allegiance to the Japanese, but was met with protests and reviles. The most violent one was Bert's son Nellie Jamal.

As a result, Nellie was quickly arrested by the Japanese. Originally, Aquilido had a chance to save Nellie, but he was afraid of angering the Japanese and chose to avoid it. Then, Nellie was killed by the Japanese."

This is a feud between two generations.

Meng Shaoyuan did not speak, but continued to listen to Kaveri:

"Nellie also has a son, who is only twenty-four years old, and his name is Igo Jamele. This is Nellie's illegitimate son, so Aquilido does not know his existence, and he is lucky enough to survive. He

Aquilido regarded the Jamal family as sworn enemies and vowed to avenge his grandfather and father.

After the liberation of Manila, the provisional constitutional government began to operate, and Malacañang Palace was in urgent need of a large number of manpower. Ige successfully applied for the job and entered Malacañang Palace."

Meng Shaoyuan nodded.

As Manila's top military commander, his mission is to ensure the security of Manila and Malacañang Palace.

However, the recruitment of Malacañang Palace service personnel is handled by the interim constitutional government headed by President Osmina.

Americans do not interfere.

Therefore, the inclusion of an IG has nothing to do with Meng Shaoyuan or being an American.

Kaveri's voice was a little low: "In order to avenge his family, Ige is willing to sacrifice everything, including his life. And now, he is waiting for instructions in Malacañang Palace."

"Your order?" Meng Shaoyuan understood immediately.

Although it is not extremely stringent to enter Malacañang Palace as a government service employee, you still have to go through heavy selection.

If there is no one behind Ige to help, I'm afraid it won't be that easy.

And the person who assisted him was obviously Kaveri.

"Yes, Colonel."

Kaveri did not hide anything: "He knew that he could not avenge his family with his own strength. It happened that his father Nellie and I knew each other, so Iger found me.

I didn't think about how I should treat him at the time, but I felt that keeping him would always be of some use. So later when Malacañang was recruiting people, I arranged for him to join."

Well, this is a chess piece that Kaveri arranged in advance.

Kaveri cheered up: "Colonel, as long as you agree, I guarantee that Ige will be able to solve these troubles, and it will never involve other people."

Meng Shaoyuan did not express his position immediately: "What do I need to do for you?"

"Right now Ige is just doing some handyman work and has no way to get close to Aquilido who is in custody." Cavelli said: "Aquilido has someone delivering meals every day. If Ige happens to know who is delivering the meals,

The exact time, the person to deliver the meal, and the specific route, we don’t need to worry about the rest.”

"This is a very dangerous matter, Mr. Stan Rockley." Meng Shaoyuan said lightly: "If it is not done properly, if Ige finally regrets it, or if he decides to confess, many people will be involved."

"His mother." Kaveri blurted out without hesitation: "Ige is very filial to his mother, so I specially invited his mother to my place as a guest. Ah, and Ige's two sisters.

.”

Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "Whatever Ige needs, he will get it."

"Ah, thank you so much, Colonel." A smile finally appeared on Kavli's face: "We will all get what we need."

…

"went well?"

When he returned to Citibank, Fabio asked.

"Maybe." Meng Shaoyuan mused: "You know, Mr. Livingston, Kaveri is a very dangerous guy. He is ruthless and will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals. In short, there are too many.

He is using us to achieve some of his goals, and some things may even become a handle for him to blackmail us in the future."

"Yes, I think so too." Fabio smiled: "So when he talks about certain things, I don't want to listen too much. Colonel, I suggest that you must be strictly wary of this person.

.When necessary, some special measures may be taken.

Of course, there is still something he can use now, and I believe you will find a way."

Meng Shaoyuan held his chin and said nothing, as if he was thinking of something.

…

Kaveri was also a very trustworthy person. The next day, he transferred six stores to Shi Zhicheng.

As the future richest man in the Philippines, Shi Zhicheng's first store in his life opened smoothly.

At this time, no one in the Philippines would have imagined what miracles this unknown young man would create in the future.

And in Manila's political center, Malacañang Palace, a conspiracy is quietly being staged.

Malacañang Palace.

Eagle is always the one who gets up the earliest.

He got up while it was still dark.

When his companions got up, they found that all the preliminary work had been completed.

They don't need to worry about it at all.

It is precisely because of this that Ige is loved by many people.
