Chapter 914: Saving the GI (Part II)
"Buzz......" There were a few muffled sounds, and the Japanese soldier on the searchlight of the tower covered his neck and made a gurgling sound, and then was held by the black shadow behind him.
The corpses on the tower were quickly brought down, and another group of men in Japanese military uniforms began to stand on the tower and continue to swing their searchlights. Using seemingly casual gestures, they indicated to the action teams below where they would be turning their searchlights.
The timing of the changing of the guard of the Japanese army has long been figured out by the intelligence services, and these special task forces know exactly when the Japanese army will move.
The door of the cell was quietly opened, and Geng Biao flashed in and immediately covered a Japanese soldier who was guarding the door of the cell. And the three soldiers who came in with Geng Biao had already broken the necks of the remaining Japanese soldiers at this time.
"I am from the Nanyang Military Region of the National Defense Forces, and I was ordered to come to your rescue." Geng Biao said in proficient English to the stunned Wainwright: "Evacuate with us immediately." ”
Wainwright knew that now was not the time to speak, so he nodded and struggled to his feet with the help of the American officer who was taking care of him. Due to his injuries, three U.S. military officers who were in custody together were allowed to come and take care of him.
This reduced the work of the task force and directly rescued four American officers. When Geng Biao came out, a man next to him made a gesture that had cut off the Japanese army's telephone line.
Geng Biao waved his hand, and several men walked out of the night carrying stretchers. Wainwright was put on a stretcher, and several U.S. officers quietly evacuated with the men.
Seeing them disappear into the night, Geng Biao smiled slightly and made a killing gesture.
The men quickly dispersed through the camp, and the Japanese storehouses had been controlled. Ammunition was taken out everywhere, and explosives carried by the team began to be planted in the Japanese camp. The soldiers guarding the door of the Japanese barracks were responsible for cleaning up the Japanese soldiers and soldiers who might get up at night.
It was only a dozen minutes before the explosives had been planted. The team began to gradually evacuate the camp, and when they withdrew to the bushes at the camp gate, they suddenly heard "Boom!!" "A bang!
A mushroom cloud rose in the Japanese camp. The explosion was so violent that even the walls on the edge of the manor were slightly trembling as they were hit by the shock wave. Flying bricks and tiles shot out of the Japanese camp and fell beyond the walls of the manor.
Geng Biao took the binoculars and looked coldly at the Japanese camp full of firelight, and kept reporting all kinds of parameters in his mouth. And the fighters around him began to record these parameters, which were a reference for estimating the effectiveness of the battle.
Such a violent explosion certainly attracted the attention of others, and the local collaborators of the Japanese army immediately tried to contact the Japanese troops in the city of Manila by telephone.
But he was stunned to find that the phone was completely unavailable now, so he could only ride his bicycle to see what was going on.
When the local security maintenance chairman supported by the Japanese army saw the burning camp in horror, Geng Biao had already quietly sneaked into the night with his people.
Wainwright found himself walking fast, and there were always unknown, faceless people in the darkness to provide them with guidance and supplies. They managed to evade several Japanese patrols and avoid Japanese strongholds. Sneaked into the jungle before dawn.
Geng Biao led people as the finishing clean-up troops, and began to clean up the traces that might be left step by step. After countless circles, it was not until he entered the depths of the jungle that he fought with the vanguard.
"Hello General Wainwright, my Chinese National Defense Force Nanyang Military Region Special Operations Team Captain Geng Biao." Geng Biao looked at the poor admiral and said with a smile: "It's a pleasure to meet you." ”
Wainwright looked at this man who was not tall, but extremely strong, and he suddenly wanted to cry for a moment. He had already despaired of his fate, and months of captivity even made him think that he would eventually die at the hands of the Japanese.
He never imagined that he would be rescued one day. The reason is very simple, as a senior in the military, he naturally knows the losses of the US Pacific Fleet.
I also know the policy of the United States to put Europe first and then Asia. Even he knew that the Navy of the Wehrmacht did not actually have the strength to land in the Philippines. But what he didn't expect was that he would be rescued so quickly.
"Thank you! Dear Mr. Geng, thank you and your companions for saving me. With mixed feelings, Wainwright suddenly didn't know what to say. It took a long time for him to hold back such a sentence.
Geng Biao didn't have any plans, smiled, and raised his hand, and the group of men walked towards the camp of the Wehrmacht. Of course, Geng Biao couldn't have taken Wainwright and them to the Wehrmacht's main camp.
It can't be exposed right now. Geng Biao and the others took Wainwright to the outlying camp they had repaired. There, some food, ammunition and medicine were stored.
At the same time, a field radio station was set up there. The news of Wainwright's rescue will return to the imperial capital with the airwaves.
"Red Deer Noro! Didn't you say that the resistance here was cleared?! How can anyone still attack our troops?! Where did these goddamn bastards come from?! ”
Masaharu Honma was furious in his headquarters. The loss of an American general is not an ordinary thing. Originally, he thought that he could send a squad and a regiment of coercion to hold only four people.
didn't expect that someone would be served off overnight. Looking at the stumps and broken arms at the scene, and those Japanese soldiers and coercion soldiers who kept wailing, Masaharu Honma had an urge to kill.
"Your Excellency, I suspect these people are new to the infiltration. And not the local troops. Osa, who was in charge of intelligence, wiped the beads of sweat oozing from his head. "We have cleared the local Chinese forces, and we have not seen any rebels. Because that's to say. It is likely that these troops are not of local origin. ”
"The fact that they are so clean shows that these people are the best of the best. This reminds me of a unit of the National Defense Army that once appeared in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions, and they even attacked the county seat at that time. For this reason, the garrison troops in Jiangsu and Zhejiang at that time had great logistical troubles......"
Honma Masaharu was thoughtful when he heard this, and only said after a while: "You mean, that unit of the Wehrmacht has infiltrated the Philippines?!" So how did they get here?! ”
The intelligence officer was relieved to see that Masaharu Honma was no longer angry.
"At present, the empire has given up most of its occupation in China, and only retained Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai. This gives the IDF a lot more access to the sea, and they can sneak into the Philippines quietly by fishing boats or small boats......"
"Damn it! I knew those navy horse manure couldn't be trusted! "Masaharu Honma is very good at shirking responsibility, and this time the responsibility becomes the navy.
"How do these guys patrol?! You can even let the people of China take advantage of the loophole and run in?! Immediately send me to the base camp and tell me about the fact that the Chinese troops had infiltrated and rescued Wainwright under the defense of the navy. After a pause, Masaharu Honma said, "One of our garrison brigades and two Filipino coercive forces were devastated by the Shina troops. The Navy must be responsible for this matter! ”
As soon as the mouth was closed, the Japanese troops of that squad became a brigade. One regiment of the Philippine coercion army suddenly became two regiments. The people below also understood that after all, there were too few troops, which was a mistake of not paying attention.
This telegram caused an uproar in the base camp, and Xianyuan Palace rushed to the naval command department with the telegram in hand. There must be a lot of troops that can defeat one brigade and two subordinate legions.
Let such a unit infiltrate the Philippines, what is the Navy doing? The people in the navy were also stunned all of a sudden, and they didn't know how to deal with it.
But if the IDF sent people to infiltrate the Philippines, it is not out of the question. The sea is so vast, not to mention a few small boats carrying people, even if the warship deliberately looks for it, it is not certain that it will be found.
"The Navy must give us an explanation for this matter!" Xianyuan Palace's face turned pale, and he said to Yamamoto Fifty-six: "We have finally cleared up all the resistance forces in the Philippines, if someone comes out at this time to specifically attack our minerals, it will have an immeasurable impact on the empire's collection of resources!" ”
"I guess that's not what your navy wants to see, right?!"
With this incident, the alert of Japanese troops in the entire Southeast Asian region was raised. The soldiers who had returned to Japan on leave also began to return to Southeast Asia.
The Navy has begun to step up patrols in Southeast Asian waters, especially in northern Guangdong. The waters around the Philippines are also under surveillance, and any suspicious vessel appearance could be fatally hit by Japanese warships.
In the jungle, smokeless marching stoves have been dug up. Wainwright was so excited that she almost burst into tears as she ate her first hot meal of meat in months.
He received a call back from Roosevelt from the Wehrmacht, and he was completely relaxed after seeing the callback.
"On the battlefield in the Philippines, you have done your best. In order to ensure the safety of the soldiers, you chose to lay down your dignity and honor. This is the most difficult thing for a military man to do, and we can understand that. As President of the United States of America, I am very concerned about your well-being......"
Wainwright watched the telegram turn his back and secretly wept. He had always feared that his surrender would be criticized and discriminated against. But what he didn't expect was that Roosevelt didn't blame him for this.
"General, maybe we're going to have to live together for a long time." Geng Biao, who was sitting on the grass, smiled and said to Wainwright: "Please don't worry, you will return to the United States soon." () For mobile phone users, please go to read. )
