Chapter 142, Attack on the Port
"At one o'clock in the morning, the Japanese fired a large number of shells at our troops, killing more than 600 people and wounding more than 1,300 people in the 255th Division, not counting other losses. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info "Dawang Village.
"At one o'clock in the morning, China opened fire on our army, and the opponent's fire was very fierce, causing more than 1,600 deaths and more than 2,100 injuries, not counting the losses of various other materials, and the casualties are still increasing." Admiralty's House of Hong Kong.
From one o'clock in the morning, the first wave of shelling on both sides, no one expected, so it caused huge casualties, after which the Japanese artillery positions were covered, and the Japanese army, which lacked artillery, suddenly fell into disadvantage.
Artillery pieces of various calibers were constantly pouring fire on the Japanese troops on the other side, exploding in the sky, and the whole of Hong Kong could see the flames in the air and the shaking of the ground.
The 255th Army, which followed behind the shells, successfully landed in Hong Kong after losing several hundred men, and then followed the explosion and advanced rapidly.
It was still the same set of infantry and artillery coordination, but the Japanese army had no effective countermeasures and was forced to keep retreating. Because the Japanese army was not prepared, they thought that they were going to attack first, but they did not expect that the other party was actually fighting them, so they did not dig any positions or air-raid shelters.
"Moximoxi, Moximoxi!" The Japanese soldier with the walkie-talkie shouted into the microphone, but there was no response, just like when the growler appeared two days ago. "Yaga!" The Japanese soldiers, who had been calling for a long time and did not respond, slammed the walkie-talkie to the ground.
At present, all units of the Japanese army cannot be contacted, and they are like scattered sand.
On the sea, the navy from a distance found that something seemed to be wrong with Hong Kong, as if something was exploding, and it was very obvious at night, and the sound of the explosion could not be heard from afar.
"It seems to be an explosion, quick, wake up the captain and ask what happened to those red deer in the army." The observer sitting on the mast noticed that something was wrong and immediately shouted loudly.
The captain who was woken up was a little unhappy, but he still endured the temperament of getting up and asked, "What are you doing?" Is there anything urgent? ”
"On the left side of the report, there seems to be a problem on the Hong Kong side." Said the lieutenant who woke the captain up.
The captain rubbed his eyes and said nonchalantly, "What's the problem?" Something happened to those Army. ”
"It's too far away for us to see clearly."
"Then contact them and ask them what they're doing."
"The truth is that we also contacted them just now, but we couldn't get in touch, and all the stations tried."
"Nani? Can't get in touch? What's going on? ”
"Nakasa, do you remember when your communications were blocked two days ago?"
"What? Could it be that plane again? So where is the plane? ”
"The plane was not found, but the situation is the same as it was that day."
"I see, let's see what's going on with the Army first."
"Hayi!"
At an altitude of 10,000 meters, the growlers circled back and forth, and the electronic pods constantly emitted electromagnetic waves to shield the communications of the Japanese army. In this area, no message can be conveyed.
Therefore, no one outside knows the current situation in Hong Kong, and there is no way for people inside to spread the news.
At the same time, the 255th Division, which was furious, hit Wan Chai Port in one go, blocked the retreat route of the Japanese army, and completely blocked the Japanese army in the north of Hong Kong, while the other Japanese troops scattered on the islands of Hong Kong were a little powerless and had no way to cross the bay.
However, there are airborne troops, and a Hong Kong Island projection point of troops, although it is not as refreshing and neat as the army's collective push, but with the support of artillery and aircraft, it quickly takes Hong Kong Island.
The loud noise of the aircraft engines reached the Japanese navy on the sea, and they could almost confirm that there was a battle in Hong Kong, but they did not know what the situation was.
The huge warship had to lift anchor and head towards Hong Kong, and the closer they got, the more they could hear the dense gunfire of gunfire, which showed that their guess was not wrong.
The first to arrive was the expulsion, relying on quick maneuvering, and soon approached.
But the trouble is that it is useless for them to rush over, in the dark night sky, they can only see the flames of the explosion, and they can't see any figures, let alone distinguish whether it is the Japanese army or the people of the 41st Group Army.
The helpless navy turned around and had to leave in a huff, they were useless, and if they stayed any longer, they would not be allowed to bomb them with artillery. Moreover, the opposing planes can actually fight in the field, and if they throw bombs on their heads, they don't know where to hide.
Originally, the Navy drove over to give the Army a glimmer of hope, but he didn't expect the other party to turn around and leave, which made the Army, who was originally expecting it, widen its eyes and scolded the Navy for not being a thing.
The army, which has completely lost its hopes, is no longer holding out any hope, and can only rely on itself, and the spirit of bushido makes them not surrender, so they desperately resist.
This fearless resistance has nothing to gain except to inflict some casualties on the attacking army and make itself more lost.
Hong Kong has undergone the development of the people, compared with the inland is much more prosperous, the concrete buildings that can be seen everywhere here have become the bunkers of the Japanese army to fight street battles, with the extension of the war, the field has been taken by the 41st Group Army, and the Japanese army in the city is left, these Japanese troops rely on the terrain to block the 41st Group Army layer by layer, and shoot black guns everywhere.
But the night seriously obstructed their vision, unlike the soldiers of the 41st Group Army, all of whom had thermal imaging on their guns, and the Japanese army had nowhere to hide.
In this way, the advantages and disadvantages of the two sides were immediately highlighted, and the Japanese army, which lacked vision, was gradually defeated, and the soldiers of the 41st Group Army were almost invincible.
Even so, the Japanese army still did not give up, and the soldiers of the 41st Group Army tried their best to attack it, even if they fought two for one.
The behavior of the Japanese army did not frighten them, especially the 255th Division, which had long been holding back a wave of anger in his chest, and now it was just venting, so they fought the most crazy, and even the Japanese army was afraid.
With the passage of time, at more than three o'clock in the morning, the Kowloon area was completely taken, the Japanese army was killed and wounded, and many people who were also affected were killed by shells, these people were still asleep, unconscious.
As the commander-in-chief, Lu Qiang had long expected this, but he didn't care, when he thought of Hong Kong in the future, Lu Qiang felt that he had razed Hong Kong Island, as for those who were patriotic, he could only say sorry.
After taking Kowloon, the 255th Division quickly occupied the dock, and then took the boat on the pier and killed the islands, striving to end the battle before dawn, and start feasible at the current speed, because the main force of the Japanese army has been annihilated, and the remaining scattered Japanese troops are not too difficult to deal with.
The 255th Division, which landed on the islands, and the Airborne Division, which had already been parachuted, gradually wiped out the remnants of the Japanese army. (To be continued.) )
