Invincible urban management

175. The unrepentant invader

On August 8, four days after the nuclear explosion in Kagoshima.

In midsummer, Hong Kong, which is located in the south of the Lingnan, is always so hot and sultry. Even the violent thunderstorms that often fall every few days can't bring much cooling comfort to the people suffering from the heat.

——The temperature exceeds 35 degrees during the day and [-] degrees at night... The air is so hot that it is scorched by the billowing heat wave, as if the oxygen concentration is too low, making people feel uncomfortable and want to take a deep breath, so that they are tired all day Sleepy, unwilling to move.

But even in such uncomfortable weather, fierce fighting broke out between the soldiers of the two armies on Lantau Island.

After the 11th persuasion notice was flatly rejected by Hong Kong Governor Sir Belle, the Third Army of the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army had no choice but to continue fighting against the scorching heat.

And the place where the fighting is most intense right now is on Lantau Island.

——Although due to the situation, we have to continue to attack the staunch enemy of Hong Kong.But the Red Army, first of all, felt a little uneasy about the densely packed forts on Hong Kong Island, which looked like raisins in Christmas pudding, and worried that the sacrifice would be too great; Sexual weapons, so as not to cause humanitarian disasters... Therefore, the traversers discussed with the generals of the Red Army for a long time, and finally gave up the plan to directly attack Hong Kong Island with their lives, and instead built artillery on the Kowloon Peninsula of the mainland. position, continuously bombarded the key parts of Hong Kong's urban area across the Victoria Bay, creating an atmosphere of panic; on the other hand, it started from the periphery.Gradually pull out the British strongholds around Hong Kong Island, cut off foreign aid from Hong Kong Island, and continuously increase the psychological pressure on the defenders on the island.Eventually it was overwhelmed and forced to land.

If this method can be successful, the Red Army of Workers and Peasants can take over a relatively complete Hong Kong Island, instead of a pile of charred and smoking rubble after street fighting. Under this tactic, in order to clear the outer defense line of Hong Kong Island, To cut off the possible foreign aid of the British troops stationed in Hong Kong and reduce the space for the British fleet to move, Lantau Island has become the primary target of attack at this stage.

Lantau Island is located on the west side of Hong Kong Island.The total area is 140 square kilometers. In terms of the size of the island alone, Lantau Island is even larger than Hong Kong Island.Even surpassed Saipan in the Pacific Ocean.The island guards two sea passages on the west side of Victoria Bay, and its geographical location is very important.In addition, if long-range bombardment of Hong Kong Island is carried out from Lantau Island, the Repulse Bay and Stanley anchorages on the south side of Hong Kong Island can be directly bombarded.Disturbed the British fleet nowhere to live.It's not like firing cannons on the Kowloon Peninsula.On the way, it was blocked by Taiping Mountain.

But the problem is that the Red Army of Workers and Peasants can understand the truth, and there is no reason why the British Garrison in Hong Kong cannot judge it.

Therefore, although at the beginning of the battle, the Red Army of the two regiments took assault boats from the pier on the north shore of Victoria Bay, forcibly crossed the narrow sea area with a width of only a few kilometers, and captured the Chi Lap at the northern tip of Lantau Island with lightning speed. Corner fort—since it is a dedicated coastal defense fort, its defense capability on the land side is much worse—but.When the Red Army took advantage of the victory and continued to advance south, it began to encounter resistance.

——The British troops stationed in Hong Kong reacted.The small fleet on Hong Kong Island was also urgently mobilized to continuously send more troops to Lantau Island.

As a result, a new round of fierce battles by sea, land and air broke out around Lantau Island.

At this time, although the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army had air supremacy, it was still unable to restrain the British fleet's actions due to the quality and quantity of aircraft and the difficulty of attacking the sea. Modern shore-based missiles were also difficult to operate here due to the complex terrain of the Hong Kong waters. A sea area lined with islands was put into use.

In the same way, although the British troops stationed in Hong Kong have the command of the sea, on the one hand, they have to endure endless bombing by planes, and on the other hand, they are often bombarded by the Red Army's shore artillery in narrow waters. The gunboats circled around, but they couldn't stop the Red Army from coming to the island one after another.

As a result, the battle quickly turned into a messy small-scale raid, constantly draining the will and blood of both sides...

"... Sigh, it's really unpleasant to fight in this hot and smoky dog ​​days!"

Squad leader Luo Dayong wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hand, and just wanted to drink some water to moisten his throat, but found that the water bottle around his waist was empty, so he had to lick his lips, and then continued to lead the soldiers of his squad. Stepping on the rough mountain road with deep feet and shallow feet.

——Luo Dayong was originally a clerk in Guangzhou, but he was developed into an underground party very early. After the liberation of Guangzhou, he joined the army and continued to make revolution with great enthusiasm.Because he went to elementary school and knew a little bit of culture, he was promoted to be the squad leader and led a group of Guangdong recruits to the battlefield to practice on the battlefield.

At this time, the heads of these Guangzhou revolutionary youths were all shaved, and they were dressed in 87-style camouflage training uniforms to bring out the vigor of martial arts practitioners.

Although they have only joined the army for less than a month, these Guangdong recruits have already opened their eyes, because they have come into contact with too many novel things.First of all, there are all kinds of personal items, three sets of camouflage training uniforms for one person, two sets of 87-style army summer uniforms, two pairs of liberation shoes, two sets of undershirts and shorts; in addition, there are belts, belts, military satchels, water bottles, Blankets, backpacks, steel helmets, engineering shovels, towels, toothbrushes, enamel cups, plastic washbasins, etc. A lot of things... The "luxury" of the Chinese Workers and Peasants Red Army, the legendary "beggar army", is really far beyond It surpassed the imagination of all recruits.The few soldiers from decent families were better off. The vast majority of poor people who were born wearing only tattered clothes and didn’t even have a pair of straw sandals were so excited that they burst into tears when they received new clothes and shoes. I swear in my heart, even if it's just for this clothes, I have to work hard!

However, after walking for half a day on the luxuriant Lantau Island under the scorching sun, Luo Dayong wanted to take off all his clothes and go into battle shirtless... Fortunately, after today's hard trek, It was somewhat valuable, because after bypassing a crossing fortification guarded by the British army, they quickly found the target-a certain warship parked on the beach not far away, unloading soldiers!

Luo Dayong took a deep breath of the sultry air, turned around and gestured for everyone to hide quickly, and then took off the microphone of the walkie-talkie:

"...Dongyao! Dongyao! I am Dongguai! I am Dongguai! I found a British warship in Jianyu Bay! Please reply if you hear it! Please reply if you hear it!" (To be continued...)

ps: ps: I fell out of the top ten of the sci-fi monthly ticket list, please help me.
