For who among the natives can play
The samurai defeated Kamura and another officer
four of their friends? There can be no indigenous people who can. And if you can, though,
it would be impossible to have the courage to attack Japanese soldiers. Tak
maybe!. Because at this time, the – movement of the Indonesian army has not been so
he held a fight against Japan. New in the form of action – actions
sporadic.
Japan itself seems to have no chance to investigate this event
jelimet. Because where is – mana, not only in Minangkabau, also in the whole
Indonesia, they are busy building a defensive fort. Fortress – fortress
the defense they build in the form of holes from concrete castings. Scattered
the whole city, in the place of – strategic places, including along the coast.
The enemy they were most worried about coming to attack was the Army
Allied forces under General Mac Athur, based in Manila,
Filipiner.
In addition to making the fortress – fortress in the form of fortified holes
with cast concrete that can not be torn down with a bomb though, then the center
suply weapons, and fortresses of defense are in bulk – the magnitude they make in
High Hill. In this city, in addition to the defense holes of cast concrete, the,
they also made a tunnel that crisscrossed under the city. The tunnel
very large. Jeep can go deep inside. To make it
they live deploying a captive Dutch army called an internir,
and the men of the Indonesian nation. Thousands of people were deployed in the tunnels
this became known as the tunnel of death.
He was named after the tunnel of death because of all the workers who went to dig
that tunnel none of which came out alive – alive. None!. All dead

a place in the bowels of the earth under the city of Bukittinggi. In its strategic plan,
if the Allies come attacking they'll hide in that tunnel. At the
certain times of the day a surprise attack on the city. In the tunnel they
have supplies of both food and weaponry that can support one
battalion troops with a force of 1,000 men for a year!
An unmitigated stockpiling and centralization of supply – responsibilities in
military History. Second, in very precarious circumstances they can
use a bad airfield to escape by plane.
When the tunnel was built, the supreme leader of the Japanese army on the island
Sumatra is held by Tei Sha (Colonel) Fujiyama. He chose to put
his command center in the former Dutch army office was several tens of meters away
