Chapter 127: Sword of Shadow

Many years later, Modber, who had served as the British Secretary of State for Defense, wrote in his memoirs: At that moment, I almost wanted to give up, and the military took obedience as its duty, and as the commander of the Hong Kong garrison, I had to obey the orders of the Hong Kong governor. It was the soldiers of the Han Kingdom who saved me from sliding into the abyss and gave me time to correct my mistake - the despicable Japanese forged the Governor's handwriting, which was an invalid letter without the Governor's seal. Unfortunately, when I returned to China, the war between Britain and China had begun, and the soldiers of the two countries had already met each other. I didn't have a chance to thank the Han soldiers again, but I knew that the name of that unit was "Shadow Sword".

The "Sword of Shadow" directly belongs to the General Staff of the Royal Three Armies of the Han Empire, and the highest commander is Mu Yu, deputy chief of the General Staff and director of the Military Intelligence Bureau.

This is a special forces unit attached to the Military Intelligence Agency, and compared to the notorious steppe wolves, the Shadow is much more low-key and its members are much more complex. They don't have their own dedicated station, and when they're not on missions, their members are military police and officers from the Military Intelligence Bureau, or even ordinary government officials, and only when they receive a mission order, the Shadows will report to the janitor outside the southern gate of Weiyang Palace. No one knows who the Shadows are to the outside, and no one knows the exact number of the Shadows. Just like this time, Director Mu, who was ruthless after His Majesty's deflated, summoned the number of Shadow Action Team to reach 200 people, and they did not come with the transport ship and the Northern Fleet, the means of transport to carry the Shadows were three submarines - Dongfeng-class conventionally powered transport submarines, which can carry 70 fully armed soldiers, with a displacement of 2,800 tons, only equipped with two torpedo tubes, a lot of cabin space has been saved, and its design concept is underwater secret delivery.

Originally, the Shadows were to wait for all the Yanhuang Wheels to arrive in Victoria Harbour before landing in them. But the situation changed abruptly, the 38th Division of the devil seized the juncture of the confusion of the defenders before the British handed over, and suddenly launched an attack, and the Dongfeng-class submarine on the battleship Fengxian had quietly sailed into the port an hour ago, and ordered the Shadow Sword to land immediately to assist the British army in holding Tsim Sha Tsui and ensuring the safety of the port.

While Modpi was hesitating with the Governor's letter ordering surrender, the head of the Shadow Sword squad had already led the team to identify themselves at Queen's Pier and take a ferry through Victoria Bay to the last line of British defense at Tsim Sha Tsui Railway Station.

The appearance of the Han army, although it was only a small force, still made Mordebi breathe a sigh of relief. Salute and shake hands with the Commander of the Shadow Sword, indicating that the British Army has handed over the Tsim Shui Tsui position to the Han Army in its entirety, and then the British Commander spread his hands to the Japanese officer who sent the letter, "You see, we obey the Prime Minister's order, and this position now belongs to the Han Army, so we can no longer carry out the orders of the Governor!" ”

"Ba Huh...... Bang......" The little devil messenger's scolding was interrupted by a gunshot, and the extra hole in the front of the steel helmet made him fall to the ground on his back with an incredulous gaze.

"What so much nonsense!" The Shadow Sword Commander inserts the large-caliber Sand Hawk pistol back into its holster.

Mordby rolled her eyes and snorted, "This is ungentlemanly!" ”

……

The silence near the train station did not last long, and the 230th Wing of the Japanese Army did not see the expected British surrender, and even the messenger never returned, so it did not wait any longer. The 75-mm howitzer squadron was already in position, and after a few test shots, it adjusted the shelling Zhuyuan and began to bombard the railway station position.

The British couldn't wait to board the ferry and sail to Hong Kong Island, and the defenders on the position only had more than 200 Shadow Sword, but fortunately, Modbey showed a gentlemanly demeanor and left several Vickers heavy machine guns to the Han army, which lacked heavy firepower, which largely made up for the shortcomings of the Shadow Sword equipment. However, the Japanese small-caliber cannon howitzers were always a big threat, and several firepower points surrounded by sandbags and wood had already been blown away, but fortunately the Shadows had not yet arrived to enter and garrison.

The Shadow Commander snatched the microphone from the hand of the shouting hoarse communicator, "I'm the Shadow, call the Poison Dragon, call the Poison Dragon......"

"Poison dragon received, please tell your coordinates!" The voice of the carrier-based aircraft pilot finally came from the headset that had been Zilala.

"Rub, if you don't come again, we will be bombarded by the little devils, here is 36. 132, repeat coordinate 36 once. 132, request for support, request for support. "The commander is a little hot, when did the Han army fight such a battle, and it was actually suppressed by the firepower of the little devils, and it has always been our sea, land and air three-dimensional offensive to suppress the enemy.

The eight Poison Dragons of the two squadrons gave full play to the excellent diving ability and ultra-low-altitude stability of the JH37-B, and the raindrops of 50 kilograms of small aerial bombs instantly covered the Japanese artillery positions, and the huge explosion was the sound of the ammunition box next to the howitzer.

230 Wing Takahashi Osa closed his eyes in pain at the center of a series of explosions, "The landlord's family has no surplus food!" "The entire wing was reimbursed for the six howitzers, and all the bombardments were reimbursed." Signal troops, call the division headquarters and ask for air force support! Watanabe, start attacking! ”

"Hello!" Watanabe Nakasa pulled out his command knife, "Yasai give it!" A Japanese brigade roared and launched a Banzai charge at the Han position.

The Shadow Commander's face was not visible, and the Type 07 steel helmet was covered with a gray hood that only showed his mouth, nose and eyes. But from the movements, it can be felt that the lieutenant colonel is very calm, the DH-37 assault rifle with a scope in his hand is placed on the sandbag, one eye is closed, and the other eye is carefully observing the movements of the Japanese army through the eight-fold scope! It wasn't until the Japanese army had rushed to the 100-meter line that they raised their right hand and cut it fiercely, "Hit!" ”

The unique muffled sound of the British Army's Vickers-Makqin "Click" sounded continuously, and the crisp "snap, pop" sound of the Han Army's DH37 automatic rifle was not dense, but it was more lethal, and the eightfold optical sight equipped by all members of the Shadow Sword allowed these elite special forces to shoot the Japanese soldiers within tens of meters clearly, and most of them were standard headshots. The inferior steel helmets of the Japanese army, which called themselves iron caps, did not work at all at such distances.

The dense charge was blocked, and Watanabe Nakasa realized that this was not the **** that he had encountered before and was defeated with one blow, nor was it one of those volunteers with poor marksmanship. As soon as the Japanese army shouted, the Japanese immediately changed their attack mode, and several crooked sub-machine gun groups carried out fire suppression with all their might, and the grenadier group aimed at the Vickers heavy machine gun fire point, while the other infantry were looking for a hidden point and advancing in groups.

The Japanese soldiers of this era were almost all veterans, and their marksmanship was quite high, and the training results of moving and aiming with guns and weights during the day were also reflected at this time. When several heavy machine gun fire points were dumbed under the blow of the Japanese grenadiers, the casualties of the Shadows gradually increased, and the Japanese guns in rapid movement could actually hit the Shadow Soldiers who were exposed in cover.

Seeing their familiar comrades fall one by one, all the members of the Shadow Sword understood that they had no choice, "Hold the last line of defense until the Legion of the Merged State begins to land!" "This is a direct order from General Mu Yu, the Supreme Commander of the Shadows.
