Cabanatu Prisoner of War Camp.

Among the American troops imprisoned here, the highest-ranking one is Colonel Sander Winston.

This unlucky guy is quite lucky.

Although the Japanese are cruel, they are not stupid.

They knew that they needed an officer to help them restrain so many prisoners of war.

And this person is Colonel Sander.

Colonel Sander hated these Japanese monkeys from the bottom of his heart.

He saw with his own eyes that his subordinates were treated inhumanely, and some often died in front of his eyes.

But he must endure his emotions.

Because there are so many people who have to rely on themselves.

He swore that he would lead these people until the end of the war.

There was an unpleasant smell in the prison camp.

I just had my only meal of the day.

God knows what it's made of.

Some of the prisoners of war were sitting there chatting, thinking about what the first thing they would do once they were free.

Some looked numbly at the sky, perhaps wondering if an American plane would fall from the sky and take them out of this terrible place.

When Meng Shaoyuan passed by them, no one even looked at him.

God knows who is unlucky today and will fall into the hands of the Japanese again.

Not far away is an officer's resting place.

A simple ceiling was built with a rickety table and a few chairs.

That's where the U.S. military prisoner-of-war officer corps, headed by Colonel Sander Winston, eats, rests, and holds meetings.

Today, several more prisoners of war were taken out and never came back.

Colonel Sander protested to Tsukasa Uemura countless times.

But every time, Uemura always told him that the prisoners of war were taken to other places.

Colonel Sander knew very well that these people were all dead.

But he has no choice, he knows that resistance will only bring greater killing!

"We can't do this anymore, sir." Lieutenant Pukes said, "From yesterday to today, a total of seven soldiers were taken out and never came back."

"They are all dead." Major Sterry looked desperate: "That damn butcher Tsukasa Uemura! He will be punished, I swear, he will."

"Gentlemen, please calm down." Colonel Sander knew that he had to remain rational in front of his subordinates at this time: "I also sympathize with what happened to the young men, but now is not the time to feel sad.

We all know that if this continues, most of us will suffer the same tragedy, so a few months ago, we began to formulate a jailbreak plan."

This prison escape plan was formulated by Colonel Sander and personally supervised its implementation.

There is great risk.

And Colonel Sander once said: "You will die, you will die, and I will die, but someone will successfully escape. Gentlemen, nothing is more precious than freedom."

A few days later, it was time for the jailbreak plan to be implemented.

At this time, Colonel Sander did not know some things.

For example, the US military is formulating a plan to rescue them.

For example, Iwamori Yuyuki has strengthened the supervision of prisoner of war camps.

Once they forcefully escape from prison, they will immediately be brutally massacred!

They don't know it, but they have to save themselves!

"Sir, the Japanese are coming." Colonel Sander's orderly Toth came over and said.

The American officers immediately changed the topic and began to discuss today's weather.

"Colonel Sander."

Two Japanese people showed up.

Colonel Sander stood up: "Yes, Colonel Sander Winston."

"I'm Shibu Taniguchi, Colonel." Meng Shaoyuan glanced at Colonel Sander: "The weather is good today, Colonel."

This Japanese officer can speak fluent English.

Colonel Sander said, "Yes, the weather is nice, sir."

Shibuya Taniguchi?

In his memory, there was no such Japanese officer in the prisoner of war camp.

Meng Shaoyuan said calmly: "I have something to ask you. Can you find a place to be alone, Colonel?"

"Okay." Colonel Sander, who was unsure of the other party's intention, said, "Maybe we can talk in my dormitory."

Colonel Sander was the only person in the entire prisoner of war camp who had his own cell.

Of course, he prefers to call this his dormitory.

"Sir, if you have anything to ask, you can ask."

Colonel Sander has been thinking about the Japanese's true intention of coming here.

After ensuring that it was safe, Meng Shaoyuan said:

"General MacArthur tells you to hold on!"

Colonel Sander was startled for a moment, then his eyes showed ecstasy, and then there was an expression of doubt:

"Sir, General MacArthur? Ah, we will persevere. Maybe through negotiations between the United States and Japan, we will be released soon."

"Colonel, are you worried that I will test you?" Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "You are preparing to escape from prison, right?"

Colonel Sander was startled: "Sir, I don't understand what you are talking about. We don't want to escape from prison, let alone face machine gun bullets."

"Colonel, please don't lie to me." Meng Shaoyuan said calmly: "If you learn to observe, you will be able to discover many interesting things. I also like to observe.

When I came in, I discovered that there was some fresh soil in the corner of the prisoner-of-war camp. I also found that although some of the prisoners' clothes were dirty, some of them were of the wrong color.

Some of the damage and dirt have been there for a long time, and some of them have just been acquired. There are also traces of mud on the hands of some prisoners of war and between their fingernails, and it seems that they have only been contaminated recently.

The prisoners of war seemed indifferent to my arrival, but from the moment they entered the prisoner of war camp to the time I saw you, there were always people quietly observing me and monitoring me.

This makes me have to guess that you are digging a tunnel, and if I walk into the eighth cell on the right now, maybe the people inside will kill me. Because the tunnel you are digging is right there!

"

Among them, Meng Shaoyuan observed and judged.

Also, it's the history he knows.

Before the U.S. military launched its rescue plan, the Cabanatuan prisoners of war, who were completely unaware of the outside world, also started a self-rescue operation:

prison Break!

Unfortunately, this jailbreak failed miserably.

About two hundred prisoners of war were brutally killed.

They dug the tunnel in the wrong direction.

And, subsequently, in view of this prison break and the continuous approach of the US military, the Japanese army began to prepare to execute all the prisoners of war in the prisoner of war camp!

Fortunately, the US military rescue commando arrived in time before the Japanese army could complete their preparations.

As a result, this also saved the lives of more than 500 American prisoners of war.

However, the more than two hundred American prisoners of war lost their lives before freedom came.
