As the US military advanced step by step, the Japanese army surrendered and more and more prisoners were captured.

Manila has undoubtedly become the "hardest hit area" for receiving these prisoners of war.

Meng Shaoyuan also had a headache about this matter.

There is a place, but aren't the concentration camps left by the Japanese ready-made?

The question is, what about the personnel?

Taking care of these prisoners of war requires the deployment of a large number of manpower.

Where can we find so many people?

Manila is as big as Manila, and there is also Malacañang Palace, the political center of the entire Philippines, that needs to be protected. It is really difficult to rely solely on the strength of Meng Shaoyuan's assault battalion.

The above also took this issue into consideration and therefore dispatched an additional platoon of troops to Manila.

The wounded who were sent to Manila also stayed in Manila after recovering from their injuries.

The problem is, these people are still not enough.

This is not just a problem encountered in Manila, it is also a situation encountered in various liberation areas in the Philippines.

Therefore, the police must be involved in management.

Police stations across the Philippines have just resumed operations and are also short of manpower.

The police station began to look at recruiting people, regardless of origin or background, as long as they were locals who were no more than forty years old.

As a result, this has resulted in a serious decline in the quality of the police, with a large number of people engaging in corruption and bribery, and even engaging in robbery and rape.

Anyway, the police report is for you, right?

This has serious consequences.

In the next few decades, Philippine police will be synonymous with low quality, amateurism, and incompetence in Asia.

Some people even claim that in addition to being corrupt, the Philippine police are also synonymous with "mentally retarded".

In a bus hostage kidnapping case that took place in the Philippines decades later, the police, special police, and negotiators demonstrated their incompetence in front of the whole world.

When faced with just one kidnapper, negotiators are used to provoke the kidnapper, the police are here to watch the show, and the most elite agents are a group of clowns from the circus.

The SWAT police actually didn't know how to break the window efficiently, let alone how to break in through the window.

When the SWAT finally opened the escape door of the bus, tried to enter it and started to attack. But before they could get in, they were shot by the kidnappers who had been lying in wait for a long time. The bullet hit the bulletproof shield. As a result, the SWAT was still scared and screamed.

The ground retreated.

As for the police?

The police's reaction was too slow. They actually waited outside for at least 7 hours. Not only did they fail to come up with an effective attack plan, they didn't even know enough about the internal facilities of the bus! They actually used ropes to pull a door that opened inward. As long as they opened the door to the bus,

If you have a little understanding, you won't make such stupid mistakes.

The behavior of the negotiators was even more puzzling. They were unable to stabilize the gangster and even forced him into a desperate situation. The situation of the hostages in the car was even more dangerous.

The whole world is watching the Philippine police joke.

The roots of these have been laid since the liberation of Manila and the reconstruction of the Philippine police system.

Of course the United States knew what the Philippine police were doing, but they chose to ignore it.

First, the war in the Philippines is still going on, and the United States has no time to intervene.

Secondly, this is a matter for the Philippines. As long as it does not offend the interests of the Americans, what does it have to do with them?

Meng Shaoyuan also knew it well, but he also didn't want to care about it.

What's more, Meng Shaoyuan single-handedly supported the rising gangster "Heart of Darkness" in Manila.

He is not only Manila's former security chief, but also the master of Manila's underground order.

On the surface, although Varnado is only the deputy chief of the police department, he has already effectively controlled all the powers of the Manila Police Department with his back to the big tree of Meng Shaoyuan.

He also did the main work for the Japanese prisoners of war sent to Manila this time.

Meng Shaoyuan wasn't too worried.

This happened so often that a group of Japanese prisoners of war were sent to Manila every few days.

Although these Japanese prisoners of war behaved very fiercely on the battlefield, once they were captured, they were like deflated rubber balls.

Resist?

The vast majority of prisoners of war would never have such thoughts.

There were more than 500 prisoners of war who came this time, and the highest-ranking one was Colonel Ishito Palace.

This is a senior Japanese officer who was rarely captured alive on the battlefield.

Meng Shaoyuan was more or less attentive and told Varnado that once the prisoners of war entered Manila, Colonel Ishida Palace must be detained separately from other prisoners of war.

Moreover, in order to commemorate this historic moment, at Levi's suggestion, a group of reporters were specially organized to conduct filming and interviews when Japanese prisoners of war entered the city.

Of course, it is mainly the US military's responsibility to accept prisoners of war, and the police only play a supporting role.

Lieutenant Terr led a squad of U.S. troops to take on this task.

Varnado arrived early in the morning.

It's not that he attaches much importance to those Japanese prisoners of war, but Americans must not neglect them.

You can't let Americans arrive earlier than you, right?

Several US military jeeps arrived.

"stand at attention!"

Deputy Director Varnado shouted a few words at the top of his voice.

But when he saw the staggering policemen under his command, Varna became extremely angry.

It's so embarrassing. There's no trace of policemanlike appearance here?

When the time comes, we must train them well.

Lieutenant Terre got off the jeep, chewing gum in his mouth, and he was also listless.

This is no great task.

According to what the colonel said, if the "Geneva Convention" had not been taken into consideration, those Japanese soldiers should have been treated in kind and shot.

If we move it to Manila, not only will we have to send people to guard it, but we will also waste food.

Lieutenant Terr felt that what the colonel said was very reasonable, but he only dared to talk about these complaints in private.

"Lieutenant, you're so early."

Varnado went up to him and said flatteringly.

Flatterer.

Lieutenant Terr cursed disdainfully in his heart, but still managed to put a smile on his face: "Are you all ready?"

"Yes, everything is ready."

Lieutenant Terr looked at it and frowned: "Why are so few reporters here?"

this?

Varnado didn't know how to answer.

If the entry of Japanese prisoners of war into Manila could cause a sensation before, then as the number of prisoners of war increases, everyone has become accustomed to it.

The same goes for reporters.

Although there is a colonel among this group of prisoners of war, how can ordinary people know the actual situation?

"I think they might come later," Varnado said perfunctorily.
