TIKAM SAMURAI :EPISODE 1 (WASHING THE FACE WITH BLOOD)
TIKAM SAMURAI (Episode 19) Love homeland Se yes

Kempetai who asked frowned. He had seen a body slip backwards. But it's unclear who it is. They then questioned the – women vigorously. The women, even though they live prostituting but have a great love of the Fatherland, which may not be owned by women – women who are not prostitutes. They are like agreed, seiya sekata to allow and obey the lie that was first uttered by Mariam. And the Kempetai and the Japanese leadership at Payakumbuh, could do nothing but believe in it. At least – lack for a while.

For who among the natives could play the Samurai to defeat Kamura and another officer and four of their friends? There can be no indigenous people who can. And even if it could, it would not be possible to have the courage to attack Japanese soldiers. Can't be!. Because at this time, the – movement of the Indonesian army has not so aggressively held resistance to Japan. New in the form of action – sporadic actions.

Japan itself seems to have no chance to investigate this incident in general. Because where – mana, not only in Minangkabau, also throughout Indonesia, they are busy building defense forts. Fort – fortress they build in the form of holes from concrete castings. Scattered all over the city, in – strategic places, including along the beach. The enemy they were most worried about coming to attack was the Allied Forces under General Mac Athur based in Manila, Philippines.

In addition to making the fort – fortress in the form of holes that are reinforced with cast concrete that can not be torn down by bombs though, then the center of the supply of weapons, the center of the, and the defense fortress is large – the amount they made in Bukit Tinggi. In this city, in addition to the defensive holes of cast concrete, they also make a tunnel that crosses under the city. A very large tunnel. Jeep can go deep inside. To make it they live deploying captive Dutch soldiers called internirs, and men of the Indonesian nation. Thousands of people were deployed to create tunnels that would later become known as death tunnels.

He was named the tunnel of death because all the workers who helped dig the tunnel were not one who came out alive – live. None!. Everyone died in that tunnel. Their death was intentional by the Japanese in order to keep the tunnel secret. The tunnel reportedly passed above the building – fital building. In addition, it also has a translucent door to the place – strategic place in and far outside the city.

According to the story from there directly into the tunnel and centered somewhere in the bowels of the earth under the city of Bukittinggi. In its strategic plan, if the Allies came to attack they would hide in that tunnel. At a certain time a surprise attack on the city. In the tunnel they had supplies of both food and weapons that could support a battalion of troops with a force of 1,000 men for a year!

An unmitigated stockpiling and centralization of supply – responsibilities in the history of the Military. Second, in very precarious circumstances they can use the airport to escape with a plane. When the tunnel was built, the supreme leader of the Japanese army on the island of Sumatra was held by Tei Sha (Colonel) Fujiyama. He chose to place his command center in the former Dutch army office several tens of meters from the mouth of the tunnel that was being built in Panorama. The Fujiyama command center will be used as the ABRI Museum in front of the August 17 Monument in Panorama. The tunnel door was also built behind his office. From there, through the convoluted tunnel he can reach several places in the city of Bukittinggi. Like to Jam Gadang, Fort or Zoo.
