Manila City Police Department.

Today, a special guest came here.

No, he is a special prisoner.

Mr. Micael, Assistant to the Mayor of Manila.

He was sent by the US military.

Therefore, the important task of interrogating this big shot was given to Varnado, who had just been promoted to deputy chief of the police.

Varnado never delays or dares to delay matters ordered by Americans.

He personally interrogated Mikael.

"Say it." As soon as he came up, Varnado said with a gloomy face.

Mikael remained silent.

He was convinced that Mayor Durkom would definitely find ways to rescue him.

The things I committed have been done by most of the current officials in the Manila City Government.

They all worked in the previous puppet government.

As long as they don't speak, there is nothing they can do.

Moreover, since they are the mayor's assistant, they don't dare to do anything to them.

However, Mikael soon realized that he was wrong.

"It is a good thing to remain silent."

Varnado stood up, came to Mikael, and took out a cigarette: "Smoke?"

Mikael shook his head.

Varnado smiled, put away his cigarette, and then slapped Micael hard.

Mikaal was completely stunned.

He never dreamed that a deputy police chief would dare to hit him, the mayor's assistant!

"I like friendly interactions with people."

Seeing Mikael's mouth bleeding and dumbfounded, Varnado continued to smile and said: "But if I encounter someone who is unwilling to cooperate, I don't mind taking other measures. Please let us start over."

…

A C-4 ​​transport plane appeared in the sky.

Meng Shaoyuan, who had just walked out of Malacañang Palace, suddenly had a headache.

He encounters new enemies:

malaria!

Malaria can also be said to be an old enemy of the US military.

In the Battle of Guadalcanal on the Pacific battlefield, the number of people who died of malaria even exceeded the number of U.S. troops killed on the battlefield.

The Philippines is located in the tropics, and malaria is naturally rampant.

When this disease occurs, you will experience chills first and then fever, commonly known as trembling. Malaria is mainly spread through the bites of Anopheles mosquitoes.

Anopheles mosquitoes are also called Anopheles mosquitoes because they transmit malaria.

In order to deal with malaria and eliminate Anopheles mosquitoes, the US military in the Philippines had to dispatch C-47 transport planes to spray insecticides over Manila:

DDT!

DDT is effective against mosquitoes, but it can also cause damage to the human body.

"Go back and keep our people safe."

Meng Shaoyuan was a little helpless: "Especially Gan Ning Xu Zhu, who is in charge of transportation, should not come into contact with people easily. Alcohol and masks must be ensured. Tell them that they must wear masks. Before eating, they must wash their hands with alcohol and wash them several times.

Damn it, especially Xu Zhu, this guy never likes to be clean!"

He can deal with all kinds of dangers, but he is helpless against natural disasters.

My brothers managed to survive the war, but it would be uneconomical if they fell to malaria.

A jeep roared towards me.

Before the car came to a complete stop, Captain William jumped out of the car:

"Hey, Colonel, something happened."

"Did the Japanese army come over?" Meng Shaoyuan joked.

"Ah, yes, we discovered the Japanese army!"

"ah!"

Captain William's words made everyone exclaim.

Where are the Japanese troops in Manila?

Meng Shaoyuan was completely stunned: "Captain, are you awake?"

"Colonel, I think you'd better go and see for yourself."

…

Everyone actually saw Japanese troops in Manila.

The real Japanese army.

What he was wearing was in tatters, almost like strips of cloth, and it was so dirty that it was hard to look at it directly. You had to look carefully to see that it was a military uniform.

On the lower body of the trousers, one trouser leg disappears from the lower part of the thigh.

The shoes on the feet are the same on both sides, and I don’t know how they fit together.

The whole person is shriveled and thin, like a zombie.

Only the occasional blink of his eyelids can prove that he is still alive.

Not carrying weapons.

Next to it lay a branch with an almost indistinguishable white cloth tied to it.

Meng Shaoyuan also noticed that the Japanese soldier had many wounds on his face, some of which were obviously new.

Captain William had already reported on the way here. Just before, the US military who was standing guard suddenly found a "skeleton", holding a branch with something hanging on it in one hand, and leaning on a slightly thicker branch in the other.

Walking towards Manila with a slight trembling.

As he walked, he weakly waved the branch in his left hand and seemed to be saying something in his mouth.

An American soldier thought he encountered a zombie, was frightened, and raised his gun.

Fortunately, his companion had sharp eyes and stopped him quickly.

When the "skeleton" approached and stopped, the US military finally saw this guy clearly.

What you're holding in your hand is a white flag, right?

This "skeleton" can also speak, and speaks quite good English:

"I am Major General Ichikawa Kusaka of the 39th Independent Engineer Regiment of the Imperial Japanese Army. I request surrender on behalf of the commander of the regiment, Major General Kitazawa Nobuhiro."

…

"Our men escorted him into Manila and were almost beaten to death by the angry Filipinos." Captain William whispered in Meng Shaoyuan's ear: "Fortunately, I got the report and arrived in time, and then I rescued him.

Life."

"Major General?" Meng Shaoyuan was a little curious: "If the commander of the regiment is not a colonel, why should the major general be directly appointed?"

"I also asked about it at the time." Captain William said: "The 38th Engineer Regiment belongs to the 'hard engineers' in the Japanese army. In the battle between the Japanese army and the Soviets, small armored machinery controlled by wires was used. The tasks of these engineers

Just operate these machines.

After the 39th Engineer Regiment was deployed to Luzon Island, it was mainly responsible for electrical, drilling, and surveying work, which can be said to be technical work. That Major General Nobuhiro Kitazawa should also be classified as a technical general."

"This guy is about to starve to death." Meng Shaoyuan frowned: "Get him some food first."

So, under the watchful eyes of everyone, everyone's eyes were opened.

God knows how many days this guy named Ichikawa Soochi has been hungry.

His mouth is obviously not big, but a piece of bread is almost stuffed into his mouth in one bite.

With more than half of the bread still in his mouth, he picked up another pack of biscuits and tore apart the outer packaging like crazy.

Either because he was too impatient, or because he was hungry for a long time, he didn't even have the strength to tear open the package. In his eagerness, he bit down on the package.

There was an oozing sound in his throat, and he was biting the package with all his strength. Finally, he bit it through. Like a wild beast, he bit the small hole crazily and harder.

Meng Shaoyuan and William, who were used to seeing life and death, couldn't help but take a step back.

They firmly believe that maybe someone will pounce on them and bite them.
