"Eight Grid Tooth Road ......"

Hideki Tojo's grief-stricken roar almost penetrated time and space into Lu Yuan's ears.

Now this period is almost the most glorious and pinnacle moment of all his lives, but the rout of Hong Kong, in just a few days, nearly 20,000 imperial warriors and soldiers, and even four imperial lieutenant generals who even committed suicide in battle, for him, this is simply a great shame!

What's more, he had just been talking in front of the emperor and many generals, and in the blink of an eye, the war report of the rout in Hong Kong was sent in, which made him feel as if he had been slapped a few times in public, embarrassed, and eager to find a crack in the ground to get into!

"Lu Yuan, I want you to die......"

Hideki Tojo's eyes roared with resentment, although he knew that because of this rout, I was afraid that the Chinese side would not be able to launch an offensive against Hong Kong in a short period of time, but such a great shame, where did he swallow this breath?

When the news came out that nearly 20,000 imperial soldiers such as the new Masaichi were stained with the blood of Hong Kong, the notoriety of the Japanese island was everywhere and the road was far away, once again resounding in the land of Japan.

These two words, in the minds of many people on the island of Japan, are almost synonymous with demons, and they can stop the existence of children crying at night.

The tragic defeat of the Japanese 38th Division in Hong Kong overnight could have caused far more serious consequences than they had imagined.

Xue Yue's troops went out of Changsha and went straight to Guangdong, and the Gui army in Guangxi also marched into Guangdong at this time under the banner of recovering the lost territory!

The two armies were two-pronged, and some of the remaining remnants of the Japanese army in Guangdong could not resist at all, and the troops were defeated like a mountain, and the Dongjiang Column on the Yan'an side, at this time, how could they let go of this good opportunity to take advantage of the Japanese army, and surrounded and intercepted the rout of the Japanese army, and at the same time easily ended the old nest of the remnants of the 66th Wing of Tamsui, seized countless guns and ammunition, and the strength skyrocketed instantly, and the number of people instantly exceeded more than 10,000, and Bao'an County, adjacent to Hong Kong, Dongguan Zengcheng and other places, all became under the control of the Dongjiang Column.

At the end of 1941, the war situation, which had been in a state of stalemate, was once again intensifying because of Lu Yuan's intervention in Hong Kong.

This time, Lu Yuan's name finally appeared in major newspapers and periodicals, Chairman Jiang praised him by name, let the generals of all departments learn from Lu Yuan, and Yan'an also published an editorial, commenting on Lu Yuan's strategy in the first battle of Hong Kong, as well as the preservation of China's only sea passage, which is a meritorious achievement!

The people of the whole country were also excited because of the victory in Hong Kong, cheering, singing praises for Lu Yuan, and even many literati said that they should take this opportunity to recover Hong Kong, which was forcibly leased by the British!

Lu Yuan did not express his position on the call to take the opportunity to recover Hong Kong, and neither did Chongqing.

It is not known whether Chongqing's reticent on the issue of recovering Hong Kong was due to fear of the strength of the British, or because it did not want to be unhappy with the country of allies formed by the shy face, or for other reasons.

And Lu Yuan, on the one hand, never thought of taking back Hong Kong at this point in time, and on the other hand, he was really busy, busy to death.

In fact, for Hong Kong, Lu Yuan didn't expect everything to go so smoothly, he always felt that this would be a protracted war, the Japanese army lost so many men, and it would definitely mobilize more forces to retaliate against Hong Kong.

Therefore, he was even ready to fight until the Yankees recovered from the attack on Pearl Harbor and began to attack the Japanese mainland.

But what Lu Yuan didn't expect was that Xue Yue and Li Zongren's Gui army would take this opportunity to stab the Japanese and seize the territory of Guangdong.

After the victory, hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong people held a crazy celebration, and Lu Yuan had to attend many activities at the request of the people, giving speeches everywhere to unite the people's hearts.

At the same time, because of the crazy victory in this battle, Roosevelt and Churchill called Lu Yuan one after another to congratulate Lu Yuan, especially Roosevelt, and repeatedly thanked him for beating the Japanese invaders and avenging the thousands of American GIs who died in the Pearl Harbor incident.

Of course, Lu Yuan would not let go of such a good opportunity, and took the opportunity to ask Roosevelt Churchill for things, from warships, warplanes, artillery, cars, tanks, to petroleum, rubber technicians, etc., anyway, he had to think of everything he wanted again.

Roosevelt Churchill tugged at his hair and listened, and finally gritted his teeth and said that the two warships and thirty warplanes promised to be sent to him would be sent over as soon as possible, and the oil would be transported as much as possible.

Then, let alone calling to find Lu Yuan, even if Lu Yuan calls back, Roosevelt Churchill will never be available!

"What about the United States of America and the British Empire, the president and the prime minister are so picky, I am really ashamed of your country for you!"

Lu Yuan scolded stupidly, but he couldn't close his mouth with a smile in his heart, after all, his ultimate goal, that is, the warships sunk by the Gao Linxun fleet, plus the warships sunk by the Japanese army, add up to twenty or thirty, which is much stronger than the navies of most countries, no matter how much, he is afraid that he may not be able to feed the territory of Hong Kong!

To put it bluntly, it's just asking for a sky-high price and waiting for the money to be repaid on the spot!

After getting rid of the British and Yankees, Lu Yuan immediately began all kinds of rectification work in Hong Kong.

First of all, it is to immediately establish the old routine of Trojan County, the regular army and militia mechanism, so that the lone wolf Xu Yunniu immediately began to train, and firmly grasped this part of the armed forces in his own hands.

As for the army of Mardehivales and others, it is impossible to replenish it, and it is also impossible to leave Hong Kong, maintain the status quo ante and intensify training.

At the same time, while Luyuan was ensuring the smooth progress of various production in the base factories in Mulma County, a large number of craftsmen and technicians, including Dr. Qiu of architecture and Dr. Lu Gang of Warwick Automobile R&D Office, were all transferred to Hong Kong to carry out large-scale renovation and reinforcement of various defense lines and infrastructure on the island.

In terms of factories and mines, Hong Kong is also beginning to carry out large-scale construction, because various constructions require a large amount of cement, just cement plants have been built in various places, and fertilizer factories and iron and steel products are also being prepared, but not in Hong Kong, but in the area controlled by Dongjiang County.

The first is that Hong Kong is a small country and lacks resources, so there will be problems with both pollution and raw materials.

Of course, the more important issue is that if factories are built in the area controlled by the Dongjiang Column, then the Yan'an side will have to increase the construction of troops here, which will be an excellent supplement to the defense of Hong Kong.
