On the streets of Hong Kong, thousands of people gathered, waving small colorful flags and pulling huge banners, directly through the whole of Hong Kong, they first passed through the most prosperous streets in Hong Kong, then to factories, commercial areas, schools, residential areas and other places, and finally arrived at the Hong Kong Governor's Office to make a request.

The British had occupied the land since the Opium War in 1841, and although the Qing Dynasty had waged several wars to retake Hong Kong, they had to sign the Treaty of Nanking with the British in 1842, ceding Hong Kong to the British.
In 1862, the British again forced the Qing government to sign the Treaty of Yanjing with the Qing Dynasty by force, and this time the British expanded the territory they occupied.
In 1898, the British still did not give up, and continued to force the Qing Dynasty by force, which had already embarked on a strange path, and signed the "Extension of Hong Kong Boundary Ordinance", which leased the entire Hong Kong for 99 years, ending on June 30, 1997.
It is now June 1942, and Hong Kong has spent a hundred years in the hands of the British, and many Hong Kong people are looking forward to returning to the motherland, and of course, many people have basically completely integrated into British society.
They have even made Hong Kong the land of the British, and the people who are marching in the streets at this time are the same people who think of themselves as British people.
Some of them think that the British are strong and can give them a stable life, but as for the return, it is not something they can control, they just want to live in peace.
There are also some people who have completely fallen into the doglegs of the British, and there are many of them everywhere, not to take the British as an example, the Chinese Empire alone has a lot of doglegs in Australia, Yueben, Korea and other places.
The people of Hong Kong looked at the crowd marching in the middle of the street, some people supported the procession, but did not join the procession, and some people kept shaking their heads, secretly scolding these traitors in their hearts.
On a corner of the street, two middle-aged men sat on a street stall drinking morning tea and eating some breakfast, looking like office workers, watching the huge crowd of marchers pass by, but they didn't say anything.
"There are a lot more people today than there were yesterday."
A man took a bite of a snack and muttered under his breath.
"Well, I guess they won't stop, what's going on over there? Did you find anything? ā
The man on the other side nodded and drank the tea ceremony.
"Not yet, but the general direction is there, the news came from Taiwan, the British bought a lot of civilians over there to act as spies, and also arranged for Hong Kong doglegs to quietly cross the border when we were recruiting, and then joined us from Guangdong, these people's files don't know where to put them, but this time the news is ten ** released by these people."
The man who spoke earlier whispered.
"Okay, you continue to investigate, remember to pay attention to your own safety, I will report the situation on your side to the above."
The man who drank the tea nodded quietly, his brow furrowed tightly.
Not many people know about the dispatch of troops to Hong Kong, and apart from those high-ranking officials on Tran Island, only the division commander and brigade commander of a division that is about to be dispatched on the Taiwan side know about it, and the brigade commander and the officer do not know anything about the situation at all.
So if the news really came from Taiwan, then this time the matter would be big, a spy turned out to be a brigade commander or division commander, which was the first time in the history of the Chinese Empire.
Although they had long suspected this, and they also closely monitored everyone who knew the news, even if they went to the toilet and didn't let them out of sight, but then everyone behaved normally, and prepared in strict accordance with the orders from above, and they were all very serious.
This makes it very difficult for their counter-espionage work to continue, and when they do not get the archives of Hong Kong, once the spy is lurking, the probability of turning him out is basically equal to zero, and the attack on Hong Kong is imminent.
"When is the general attack? I'm not in a high position, and I've already aroused their suspicion when I've tracked down this, so I need to know the exact time and plan the next steps. ā
The soldier who had spoken earlier asked in a low voice.
"I don't know, only His Majesty knows the specific time of the attack, you try your best to do it, once your identity is leaked, just find a safe place to hide immediately."
The man drinking the tea was suddenly startled in his heart, and he had some suspicions.
The intelligence officers under him are all highly trained, and they know what to ask and what not to ask, and if the superiors do not take the initiative to say such important information as the time of the general attack, they will not be asked at all.
Although his questioning was skillful and seemed to be work-oriented, it was this simple sentence that made him suspicious of his subordinate.
Afterwards, the two didn't say anything more, and left the small stall after paying the money directly, and the younger young people went directly to the Hong Kong political axe, and the slightly older ones knocked on the door of a family after turning around.
Half an hour later, he walked out of the courtyard and immediately returned to his station, and everything was settled, and he didn't know what the problem was, but he basically figured it out.
He also had a preliminary judgment in his heart, and now he only waited for a result, and once it was decided, he could determine the specific time for attacking Hong Kong.
Despite the strong reaction of the Hong Kong people, this does not hinder their plans to regain Hong Kong, and is it necessary for them to pay attention to those dog-legged ideas?
"Director, it's confirmed, your guess is correct."
A man dressed in black entered the room from the outside, holding a letter in his hand.
"Hmph, I was so blind that I didn't even see that he was a double agent. Xiaowen, you go and keep an eye on Abe, don't let him find out, and wait until Hong Kong is recovered to see how Lao Tzu cleans him up. ā
The face of the man known as the director was covered with anger.
"Director, why don't you just kill Abe? Now is the critical moment, so as not to have too many dreams at night, and the letter has already confirmed that Abe's identity as a double agent has basically been confirmed. ā
Xiaowen said in a low voice.
"No, it's still useful to keep Abe, you can't touch him for the time being."
The director rejected Xiaowen's suggestion, and continued to speak: "Hmph, Abe asked me today about the time of the general attack, and tomorrow you will tell him that the troops will land in Tseung Kwan O in a week, and let him arrange the work behind. ā
"Director, is this person who writes the letter reliable?"
Arwen continued.
"Absolutely reliable, this person is one of our old-timers, he was in charge of intelligence work in the northeast a few years ago, and after arriving in Hong Kong, we have never contacted him, even on our side, only me and the intelligence minister know his identity."
The director nodded and said, Arwen is his confidant and has followed him for several years, so there is nothing to hide from some questions for him.
But please don't underestimate the head of an intelligence chief, who is engaged in intelligence, caution is essential, and a carelessness may lead to the annihilation of the intelligence network.
Although Awen is his confidant, he still conceals it on some issues, and although the work of communicating with Abe is handed over to Awen to solve, but on this information, the director has done tricks. For example, the time of the attack was not a week later, but in the early morning two days later.
The landing site is not Tseung Kwan O, but the specific landing place, which is a place that no one can imagine, and there are as many as three landing points, it can be said that once the troops successfully land, then the recovery of Hong Kong has been half completed, so it can be seen that these three landing points are important to this battle.
After a night of silence, the next morning, Ah Wen went out to contact Abe, while the director continued to coordinate the work of the whole of Hong Kong.
As the landing time drew closer, the director's energy had to be scattered in many aspects, in addition to controlling the overall situation, he also had to observe whether the British army began to deploy troops to Tseung Kwan O.
As a result, it was surprising that the British army did begin to move in the direction of Tseung Kwan O, basically transferring half of the British army, and carrying a large number of weapons and equipment. The British army also seemed to know that this battle was very important, and intelligence work was also very important, so the British army was basically transferred at night, and the barracks were still the same as before, training and training, what to do, giving people the appearance that the army was still in the camp.
In fact, the British troops who were still in the camp were only a small part, and most of them were troops composed of Ah San who temporarily played the role of the British army.
"Director, it's not good. Abe is gone. ā
Arwen hurriedly entered the house and hurriedly reported.
"What's going on?"
The director asked anxiously, the timing of Abe's disappearance was too good, he only told him yesterday that the troops would land in a week, and the British army had also been mobilized, but now Abe suddenly disappeared, which undoubtedly confirmed his identity as a double agent, and after finding out the news, he couldn't wait to disappear, so as to ensure his personal safety.
"Abe told me in the afternoon that he found the file of the British spy and stole some of it, and when I went there in the evening, I didn't see Abe, and it was the British army who came to meet me, if I hadn't run fast, I guess I would have been killed by them by now."
Ah Wen recalled the scene with palpitations and spoke.
