Located on the northwest coast of Hong Kong Island, Victoria City is an administrative and financial centre established after the British occupation of Hong Kong in 1841. Victoria City is divided into four rings, namely the West Loop, the Upper Ring, the Central Ring and the Lower Ring.

The Fourth Ring Road is divided into nine covenants, i.e., nine administrative districts.

The offensive intention of the Donghua army was very clear, that is, to concentrate its forces to occupy Victoria City, and it did not engage in any tactics such as encirclement on all sides and pincer offensives, and it was clear that it was to use the overwhelming firepower advantage to drive the Japanese army away from Victoria City.

This kind of tactical play obviously left a way for the Japanese troops stationed in Hong Kong to survive, and they did not want the Japanese troops to stubbornly resist to the end.

However, the goodwill expressed by the Royal Navy and the Marine Corps of Donghua did not seem to appreciate the Japanese troops who retreated to Victoria.

Victoria City, the administrative and financial center of Hong Kong, has long since disappeared, and the sturdy buildings have been transformed into huge pillboxes, camouflaged anti-aircraft firepower and makeshift garrisons everywhere, and Hessesen's guns of all calibers are ready to launch a ferocious counterattack on the attacking enemy.

Although the offensive of the Donghua army was temporarily suspended, the artillery fire did not abate.

THE SKY STILL RESOUNDED WITH THE HUGE ROAR OF THE TURBINE ENGINES OF JET FIGHTERS TEARING THROUGH THE AIR CONSTRAINTS, THE MI-28 ARMED ATTACK HELICOPTERS AND THE MI-24 ARMED TRANSPORT HELICOPTERS WERE STILL HOVERING AROUND, THE 155MM HOWITZERS WERE CONSTANTLY BOMBARDING THE FRAGILE AND STRONG DEFENSE LINE OF THE JAPANESE ARMY, AND THE M270 ROCKET LAUNCHERS LET OUT A SHARP GHOST ROAR THAT KEPT ECHOING IN THE SLIGHTLY FISHY SEA BREEZE.

Everywhere there were huge fireballs steaming, and occasionally three or five tumbling clouds of smoke burst out.

Itada is hidden in a pile of rubble, not very far from the landing ground opened by the Royal Marines of Donghua. In order to find out how the Donghua army was preparing to fight the upcoming urban offensive and defensive battle, Itada Hengichi did not hesitate to personally lead a reconnaissance team to lurk here to observe the movements of the Donghua army.

Not far ahead is Lower Wan (i.e. Wan Chai and Tung Lo Wan), where the Royal Marines of Tung Wah sent Navy SEALs to occupy it shortly after the landing operation, and established a relatively solid forward base with the subsequent landing force.

"Captain, there must be a large number of Apacheskis and Hinds there." Reconnaissance staff officer Toshi Fujita was next to Itada Hengichi, holding a telescope in his right hand, and pointing with his left hand to the open field where helicopters took off and landed from time to time in the direction of three o'clock in front of him, and said in a low voice.

Apacsky is the nickname given to the Mi-28 armed attack helicopter by the Donghua Empire, and the Hind is the code name for the Mi-24 armed transport helicopter. The armies of various countries are very greedy for these two advanced helicopters, but it is a pity that the Donghua Empire has never exported them to any country.

"Their Apachesky and Hind are much more advanced than the Imperial imitation Mi-4." Itada Hengichi put down the telescope he was holding and said with a sigh: "Until today, I didn't know that armored combat vehicles are not invincible, and armed helicopters are low-altitude killers specifically targeting armored combat vehicles. ”

In the distance, dozens of fire dragons soared into the sky and disappeared into the sky filled with gunpowder in an instant.

After a while, a dense explosion was heard in the direction of Sheung Wan.

"Wing Commander, look, in the direction of five o'clock, this is a new type of self-propelled MLRS!" FUJITA JUN POINTED IN THE DIRECTION OF THE FIRE DRAGON, AND SAID IN A LOST VOICE: "CRAWLER CHASSIS, TWELVE TUBES, VISUAL CALIBER OF MORE THAN 220MM!" ”

"Yaga! WHAT A BASTARD THE DONGHUA EMPIRE IS, THEY ACTUALLY CREATED A HEAVY SELF-PROPELLED ROCKET LAUNCHER WITH A CALIBER OF MORE THAN 203MM! Itada Hengichi held the binoculars in both hands, gritted his teeth and whispered: "This kind of heavy rocket artillery, like their aerial firepower, is really too much of a threat to our defense. Hurry up and report to Governor Sakai, this is a new type of equipment for the Donghua Army! ”

I can't help ita, but Itaga Hengichi is not shocked. ROCKETS OF MORE THAN 203MM CALIBER, OF COURSE, ARE MORE POWERFUL THAN 203 CALIBER NAVAL GUNS. A SELF-PROPELLED ROCKET ARTILLERY VEHICLE CAN FIRE TWELVE ROCKETS AT A TIME, AND JUST NOW EIGHT ROCKET ARTILLERY VEHICLES WERE FIRED AT THE SAME TIME, AND 96 ROCKETS OF MORE THAN 203MM CALIBER WERE COVERED BY FIRE AT ONE TIME, AND EVEN A STRONG FORTRESS WOULD TURN INTO A PILE OF RUINS.

Three Humvees, roaring and panting, drove quickly across the road ahead. This is a patrol of the Donghua Army.

A machine gunner wearing a camouflage helmet and hiding behind a machine gun shield on the roof of his car turned the muzzle of the M60E general-purpose machine gun and fired at the pile of rubble where Itada and the others were hiding.

The tracer bullet slashed overhead, and the frightened Itada Hengichi and Fujita Jun quickly lowered their heads and pressed their bodies and faces tightly against the wet ground.

The roar of the M270 rocket launcher pierced the sunset in the sky. With this as a battle call, it opened the prelude to a new round of offensive by the Royal Marines of Donghua.

Dozens of helicopter gunships ghostly appeared on the horizon, their rapidly spinning blades tearing at the air and stirring red clouds in the sky.

More than a dozen F-4M carrier-based fighters and A-6 attack planes of the Royal Navy of Donghua swept through the afterglow of the setting sun like lightning, dropping cluster bombs and cloudburst bombs on all the flaming anti-aircraft fire points on the ground.

Sixteen M777 towed howitzers let out a dull roar, the crumbling roar tearing through the solidified air, and in the successive explosions, countless dazzling fireballs mixed with billowing gunpowder smoke lit up the dim sunset.

The M1A1 "Abrams" main battle tank, the M2A3 "Bradley" infantry fighting vehicle, these steel monsters covered in reactive armor, accompanied by the sonorous sound of heavy tracks, appeared for the first time on the battlefield filled with gunsmoke.

MOUNTED WITH MK19 GRENADE LAUNCHERS, OR THE 12.7MM M2HB HEAVY MACHINE GUN, THE HUMVEE AND FIRE SUPPORT SYSTEM CAREFULLY SWAM BEHIND THE HEAVY TROOPS, READY TO BE PLUGGED IN AT HIGH SPEED.

"Anameasu is above! SUCH A LARGE TANK IS FAR DIFFERENT FROM THE IMPERIAL TYPE 99 HEAVY TANK (59 MODIFIED JAPANESE VERSION), AND THE CALIBER OF THE TANK GUN IS CLOSE TO 120MM! Fujita Jun couldn't help but exclaim.

"Yaga! Be quiet! Itada Hengichi kicked Fujita Jun lightly, if it wasn't for the cover of the sound of artillery explosions, Fujita Jun's voice just now was likely to be discovered by the Donghua army.

Damn the East Chinese! They still have such a huge main battle tank! Just looking at the external volume and turret structure, you can judge that it is definitely more advanced and powerful than the Type 99 heavy tank transferred by the Donghua Empire to the Japanese Empire.

Itada Tsuneichi visually estimated that the weight of this new main battle tank must be more than 50 tons! And it seems to be more agile and faster than the Type 99 heavy tank.

The other tracked infantry fighting vehicle is significantly more robust and ferocious than the Imperial Type 99 infantry fighting vehicle (Type 63 tracked armored transport Japanese version).

The Royal Army and the Royal Marines are indeed equipped with advanced new armored combat vehicles!

No wonder they sold the Type 99 armored combat vehicle to the Reich!

It turned out that the armored combat vehicles that these empires relied on as the sharp weapons of the country were all backward equipment that the Donghua Empire eliminated and did not want!

It must be reported to Governor Takashi Sakai immediately, and the military department must be informed immediately!

In addition to the air assault armored units, the Donghua Army also has ground heavy troops! These advanced weapons and equipment are simply not comparable to those of the Imperial Japanese Army!

Damn the East Chinese! It's such a bully! It is no wonder that the British ghost beasts did not even dare to go to war and ceded Hong Kong to the Donghua Empire.

The military power of the Donghua Empire is really terrifying, and its Royal Navy, Royal Air Force, and Royal Army all have the world's first-class advanced weapons and equipment. The Empire of Japan could never go to all-out war with such a country. Otherwise, only defeat and destruction awaited the Great Japanese Empire!
