Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The artillery company of the 531st Regiment is equipped with six 105 mm caliber light howitzers and six 120 mm caliber heavy mortars.  As soon as the order from Zheng Yu, commander of the 531st Regiment, was given, the artillery company, which had already been prepared, immediately started firing.

    "Boom! Boom! Boom!" The shells flew across the Boundary Street of the Kowloon Peninsula and towards the position of the 16th British Marine Regiment.  The shell exploded, erupting into a ball of orange fire and sending shrapnel flying, harvesting the lives of these British soldiers who had not yet figured out what was happening.  In the explosion of the shells, people were constantly blown up into the sky, and when they landed, they became a pile of minced meat.

    "Get down quickly, the Chinese are attacking!" The British officers who came back to their senses shouted loudly.  At the same time, a large number of people ran towards the trenches, preparing for the battle that was about to break out.

    Lieutenant Bader watched as a cannonball exploded in front of him. Captain Allen in front of him was instantly blown away. After the smoke cleared, Captain Allen was revealed to have been blown into two pieces.

    "Oh God! Captain Allen, are you okay?" Lieutenant Bader asked with a look of horror.

    "Go back to England!" After Captain Allen said these words, the look in his eyes had disappeared.

    "Counterattack! Counterattack! Come on, report to the regimental commander immediately, we have been suddenly attacked by the despicable Chinese!" The battalion commander of the 2nd Battalion of the 16th British Marine Regiment issued the order in a panic.  Although they had been confronting the Chinese ** team for more than half a month, they did not expect that the Chinese ** team would launch an attack at this point in time, which made them completely unprepared.

    "Boom! Boom! Boom!" Lieutenant Bader was lying in the trench, holding his head tightly. He felt that the Chinese artillery shells seemed to be endless, and they kept pouring towards their position.  The British army's position, which was not very strong to begin with, had already been blown to pieces.

    "Mom! I want to go home!" Some soldiers who were not determined had already started crying.  The British army has not fought in a battle for several years. These new recruits have never seen such a scene.  Cannonballs continued to explode around them, and their companions were constantly killed. The entire battlefield was full of broken limbs and blood, just like Shura Hell.

    At 10:30 in the morning, after half an hour of artillery preparations, the British Marine Corps position had been basically destroyed. At this time, the 531st Regiment launched an attack.  Thousands of men from the 1st Battalion of the 531st Regiment jumped out of their positions and rushed towards the British Marine Corps position.

    "Quick! The Chinese are coming! Fight back!" The surviving officers of the British Marine Corps shouted loudly.  They pulled out the soldiers who were still holding their heads and hiding in the trenches, and asked them to fire in preparation for a counterattack.  These ignorant British soldiers only knew how to mechanically pull the trigger and fire at the attacking squadron.

    "Click!" Soon, the sound of heavy machine guns also rang.  The surviving British troops began an effective counterattack.  The few Chinese soldiers who were charging at the front were knocked to the ground, not knowing whether they were alive or dead.  However, more Chinese soldiers continued to attack.

    "Prepare mortars! Kill the British heavy machine guns!"

    "Boom!" A shell flew out and landed accurately next to the British heavy machine gun. Several British soldiers who were operating the heavy machine gun were all killed.

    "Grenade!" shouted a platoon leader at the front.

    Dozens of grenades flew into the British trenches, blowing up the British soldiers who were firing.

    "Kill!" The Chinese soldiers took the opportunity to rush into the British trenches and began to gradually clean up the British soldiers inside.

    The light machine gun, pistol, rifle, bayonet and grenade worked closely together. After the grenade was thrown, the light machine gun fired another round of bullets, and then the infantry rushed in to deal with the remaining enemies, clearing the British trenches section by section.  With close cooperation, the British army was simply unable to resist.

    "Battal Commander, there are too many Chinese, our position has been breached, please order a retreat!" Lieutenant Bader found the battalion commander and put forward his own suggestion.

    "Second Lieutenant, we are a proud British team, how can we escape!" the battalion commander reprimanded loudly.

    "Boom!" At this time, a cannonball flew over and exploded more than ten meters in front of them, sending several British soldiers flying into the air. When they landed, they were already lifeless.

    "Second Lieutenant, order everyone to retreat. The Chinese are too strong, we can't resist them at all!" The major battalion commander swallowed hard, a trace of fear flashing in his eyes.

    Soon, the more than 200 British Marines involved withdrew from the trenches and fled toward the Kowloon Peninsula, while the Chinese soldiers were in hot pursuit.?It has the potential to hit Hong Kong in one fell swoop.

    In the Government House on Albert Road, mid-level in Central, Hong Kong Island, the current Governor of Hong Kong, Mr. Bully, is personally drafting a telegram. The content of the telegram is to request the cabinet to allow them to evacuate Hong Kong.  Hong Kong is no longer safe now. The Chinese Army's attack is imminent. If they continue to stay in Hong Kong, they will only be put in danger.  After losing the protection of the navy, the strength of a regiment stationed in Hong Kong was no match for the wolf-like tiger squadron.  Therefore, for the sake of his own life and glory, Bu Li hopes to persuade the cabinet to abandon Hong Kong.

    "Your Majesty the Governor, something bad has happened. The Chinese have launched an attack on us!" The secretary of the Governor's Office came in and reported with a look of horror.

    "What? The Chinese launched an attack?" Governor Bu Li was stunned. The pen in his hand had fallen to the ground. He leaned slumped on the sofa.  Now, he no longer knows what to do!  The Chinese *** launched an attack, which meant that Hong Kong could no longer hold on, and these people were either killed or had to go into Chinese prisoner-of-war camps.

    A few minutes later, Yalman, the colonel commander of the 16th British Marine Regiment, also came to Governor Bulli¡¯s office.

    "Your Majesty the Governor, the Chinese have broken through our defense line, and now the entire Kowloon Peninsula is about to fall. Please make a decision quickly, Your Majesty the Governor!" Colonel Yaman urged.

    "Your Excellency, Colonel, are your people capable of defeating the Chinese?" Governor Bu Li looked a little pale.

    "Your Majesty the Governor, are you kidding? My regiment only has 2,000 people. I have to face 18,000 well-equipped squadrons. This is simply impossible!" Colonel Yaman felt like he was being stepped on.  When it reaches its tail, it jumps up like a cat.  If the powerful navy is still there, it may be possible to defend Hong Kong Island, but the navy is gone, and everything has become a luxury.

    "In this case, do we have any other choice? Colonel Yaman, order your people to put down their weapons and surrender to the Chinese! As the governor, I have the responsibility to ensure everyone's safety!" Governor Bu Li said.

    "Yes, Your Majesty the Governor!" Colonel Yaman breathed a sigh of relief.  If Governor Bu Li did not agree to surrender, he really didn't know what to do.

    Soon, the British Marines laid down their weapons and surrendered to the Chinese troops.  The 53rd Division, with only one regiment, successfully disarmed the British Marines and took control of the entire Hong Kong area.  All the surrendered British soldiers were put into prisoner-of-war camps, and the British officials were all put under guard.

    After Wang Yuze learned the telegram to regain Hong Kong, he was even more excited and burst into tears.

    "Order the 53rd Division to dispatch a regiment to Macau. I hope those Portuguese will know more about it!" Wang Yuze ordered.  After Hong Kong is taken back, only Macau will be left.  Of course, as for the lands occupied by the Russians, they will all be taken back after this war.  In this way, Wang Yuze finally took back all the territory left by his ancestors.  The next step is to expand the territory.

    Telegrams of the Chinese Communist Party's attack on Hong Kong and Hong Kong Governor Bully's surrender to China were sent to London one after another, less than an hour apart.  At that time, it was two o'clock in the morning in London.

    The British Prime Minister, the Marquess of Salisbury, was once again awakened from his deep sleep. However, when his secretary told him that the Chinese Communist Party had launched an attack on Hong Kong, his sleepiness immediately disappeared without a trace.

    "The Chinese are finally going to take action? Hong Kong is a territory of the British Empire. If the arrogant Chinese dare to attack Hong Kong, I will make you pay the price!" the Marquis of Salisbury murmured.  After China and Britain declared war on each other, he knew that China would definitely attack Hong Kong.  However, he still has a trace of fantasy.  I think China may not dare to offend Britain to death, leaving some room for relaxation. Hong Kong is a good tool for testing.  Now, China has launched an attack on Hong Kong. There is no doubt that this shows that China does not take Britain seriously.

    "Invite Lord Walter Kerr and Earl Frederick Slay Roberts to come to see me immediately!" the Marquis of Salisbury ordered.

    "Yes, Your Excellency Prime Minister!" The secretary immediately sent someone to ask for the Secretary of the Navy Walter?  Lord Kerr and Field Marshal Frederick?  Slay?  Earl Roberts went.

    "Arrogant and ignorant Chinese, you have successfully provoked the wrath of the British Empire. Wait for the revenge of the great British Royal Navy! This time, the entire China must be destroyed and you will be completely reduced to a colony of the empire!"  The Marquis of Salisbury said secretly.  More than half a month ago, the Far East Fleet was destroyed, and Britain was already preparing for battle again.  However, Britain's huge naval fleets are deployed all over the world, focusing onIt will take some time to get up.  And now, China has launched an attack on Hong Kong, which has forced the UK to a point of no return.  If the Marquis of Salisbury did not want to be ousted by the angry people, he had to take effective countermeasures immediately.  (To be continued.
