"You have nearly 300,000 troops. Can't you deal with such a little indigenous Roosevelt has been troubled by China's large-scale counterattacks in various places. When you first heard about the Philippines' request for help, you couldn't help but scold them.

Although nearly half of the non-combatants such as logistics and reserves account for nearly half, there are at least 50,000 combat soldiers equipped with excellent weapons. These are the front-line troops that are ready to counterattack China. As a result, the Chinese army has not yet landed, and was actually disturbed by a group of native Filipino guerrillas and asked for assistance.

If the US military had only such a little combat power, Roosevelt would simply recall all the US military and hiding in the United States to protect himself. What else can we talk about world hegemony? Even the natives in the colonies could not defeat them, wouldn’t they fall to the same level as the Noodle Army?

He did not consider the issue of the indigenous Philippines at all. Unless they all became King Kongs who could masturbate, even with the support from the Chinese, the Filipino monkeys were still in a rabble, and he had no doubt about this.

However, he still looked at Marshall, hoping that he could give himself an explanation.

"There are too many Chinese troops in the Philippines!" Marshall smiled bitterly.

At the beginning, even Stilwell and McNair in the Philippines didn't care. Even if the Chinese army appeared later, they believed that they could rely on 300,000 troops to defeat the war and 140,000 navy to assist in the war. Even if the air force was a little weaker, they were not afraid of the Chinese army landing on a large scale.

But they soon discovered that the Chinese fleets that emerged from time to time in the surrounding waters had not yet launched a large-scale landing operation. A large number of Chinese troops were constantly emerging from the jungles of various islands in the Philippines, constantly raiding US military bases everywhere.

"We don't know how many of them are, maybe tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands! They are mixed among those Filipinos, and it is difficult for us to distinguish them." Marshall said.

"They aren't Chinese?" Roosevelt pondered.

Marshall understood what he was asking.

Although with China's strategy in Southeast Asia and with the compensation from the Chinese government, most Chinese in the Philippines chose to move away, and more people left after the tension between China and the United States were tense. However, many Chinese still were unwilling to leave.

In order to protect themselves, most of them gathered together and built their own arms. These arms mainly dealt with the native Filipinos. As long as they still paid various taxes and fees, China has not yet launched a large-scale action against American civilians, the Americans also turned a blind eye to only restrict their movement and freedom, and there were no extreme measures.

Of course, the lives of tens of thousands of American prisoners held by China are also an important reason why the Americans did not retaliate against the Chinese on a large scale.

In addition to those Chinese who were honestly restricted from their scope of activities, some Chinese hid in remote areas and even directly participated in resistance organizations. Especially during the Japanese rule, the Chinese resistance armed forces in the dense forests gave Japanese headaches. Even after the Americans took over the Philippines, they couldn't tell how many Chinese participated in the resistance armed forces.

The data given by the intelligence department is more than 20,000 to 30,000 people, but some reports say that the number may be more.

"It is not the civilian armed forces organized by the Chinese, but the real army. They have strong combat capabilities, advanced weapons and excellent equipment, and have a strict organization." Knowing that Roosevelt was suspicious of the Chinese, Marshall immediately clarified, "Our troops fighting with them have suffered a lot. We suspect that they are elite troops of China."

"Elite troops? So many people and a large number of advanced weapons, how did they get them to the Philippines? Is our coastal defense so bad? What if the same happened to our homeland?" Roosevelt was in a worse mood.

Even if the tens of thousands of Chinese troops were elite, they could not pose too much threat to the Philippines, which the Americans had been operating for nearly half a century. What he was more concerned about was how the Chinese troops landed on the island.

Although the Philippines' coastal defense is much worse than that of the United States, if the US team stationed in the Philippines enters combat readiness and is still slipped up by so many Chinese troops, either the Chinese army is too powerful or the US team is too incompetent. No matter which one it is, it is absolutely bad.

"Maybe the Chinese have been lurking to deal with the Japanese!" Marshall guessed.

He believed in the blockade ability of the US team, and in the arms period, there were many help from the Philippines.

Roosevelt nodded slightly, regained his confidence in the US team, and said instead: "These Chinese troops are not worth worrying. No matter how many of them are, they are not as large as those of the Filipinos. As long as we give more money and power, those greedy Philippine leaders will make wise choices. Tell Stilwell not to always think about using guns to talk, sometimes a candy will be more useful!"

Americans have always been willing to throw candy, and Filipinos who have always been accustomed to being inferior only need a little sweetness and will change their position. Even many native Filipinos who lost their relatives in the previous riots followed their leaders and turned to the United States.

They immediately turned the gun and directly dealt with the Philippines who were unwilling to defect to the Americans

Don't believe that ordinary Filipino natives care about the color of skin that rides on their heads, they will only kneel to any master who throws bones at them for survival.

Of course, these ordinary people who are worthy of cannon fodder are too far away from Americans. The leaders and officials above them are the ones who decide their life and death.

Similarly, the Filipinos in the Resistance Army also obeyed the leadership of a few upper-class figures.

In the past half a century, although the Americans left the impression on the Filipinos is stronger than the more greedy Spaniards, as the trend of national rejuvenation surges around the world, especially the rise of China, which is regarded as a miracle by various colonial nations, has made many modernly educated middle and upper classes in the Philippines work hard to get rid of American colonial rule and become the highest country.

Not to mention ideals and the benefits obtained by ordinary people, just the redistribution of benefits and freedom to control the supreme power and glory of a country that flows to Americans every year can lead to the struggle of many Philippine elites.

Some of them defected to the United States, while others continued to lead a large group of native Filipinos who were eating and drinking, and fought to the end with the support of China.

In this way, the entire Filipinos were divided into two major factions: the American-Presist and the opposition. They ignored the feelings of their compatriots and directly launched a more cruel battle or massacre.

This is the effect that Meng Xiang wanted to achieve in his plan, rather than simply conquering the Philippines.

If it is said that before China and the United States turn against each other, considering the attitude of the Americans, after the war between the two sides, China still did not capture the Philippines, and even people in China complain.

To be honest, the entire Indochina Peninsula was swept by the Chinese army, leaving only a few islands in the Philippines and Indonesia, not because the Chinese navy was not strong.

Perhaps the Americans believe that the Chinese Navy is not strong enough and dare not fight against the US Navy, but in fact, the strength of the Chinese Navy has exceeded the American inference. Even if China is a little further away from the sea of ​​the Philippines, even the Japanese mainland, which is full of soldiers, has been completely wiped out by China, let alone the Philippines, which once had only a few US troops defended.

But Meng Xiang resisted the temptation again and again and never attacked the Philippines.

When the early offensive direction was Europe and could not counterattack the United States, he wanted to treat the Philippines as a useless ribs for the Americans. He drew a bleeding wound in this place where the Americans had to defend, consuming the Americans' strength, and at the same time restraining the powerful American naval power. He had to defend the Philippines first to avoid running around and hurting the flowers and plants on the coastline of China.

In addition, when China's immigration rate to Southeast Asia is full, it takes a long process to digest the Philippines with a population of more than 10 million. Therefore, Meng Xiang needs to clear the Philippines.

It would be too troublesome to consume by transporting to India-Myanmar borders and other places. And it would be slower to clean up by those servants with fewer people.

The most convenient thing is to let them get internal and disappear actively while they die together.

When the Chinese army forced themselves to the Philippines, everything was being staged according to Meng Xiang's script.

The American fleet paraded in the Philippine waters, guarding against the logistics supply of China to the Philippine Resistance Organization and China's island landing personnel, which had not been discovered, and even the Chinese army could land reinforcements. This made the escort fleet that transported supplies to the Philippines not much strengthened, and the results of submarines and fighter jets that China continuously attacked the maritime transportation channels increased sharply. If it were not for the need for Americans to be unable to leave this useless rib, they would have even been completely cut off.

Even so, the supply sent to the Philippines is not one in ten, which makes Americans feel very painful.

The weapons sent to the hands of indigenous people in the Philippines are basically used to kill each other in the Philippines.

They dare not deal with the Chinese army that is stronger than the Americans. They are working extra hard when dealing with their own tribesmen.

The Philippines' indigenous resistance groups are also unceremonious to these philanders.

The massacre of the genocide is being staged every day.

This dark history of the Philippines, which was later counted as Americans, directly reduced the population of the Philippines by half. In addition to some other incidents afterwards, the Filipinos finally only existed in dusty unofficial history.
