August 15, four days after the nuclear bombing of Kagoshima.

In the middle of summer, Hong Kong, located in the land of Lingnan, is always so hot and humid that even the violent thunderstorms that often fall every few days cannot bring much cool comfort to people suffering from the summer heat.

- Temperatures over 40 degrees Celsius during the day and 35 degrees Celsius at night...... The air was so hot that it was as if the oxygen concentration was so low that it was so uncomfortable that it was so uncomfortable that it was so difficult to take a deep breath that it was so tired and sleepy that it was not willing to move all day.

But even in such uncomfortable weather, fierce fighting broke out between the soldiers of the two armies on Lantau Island.

After the announcement of surrender on the 11th was categorically rejected by the Governor of Hong Kong, Sir Belu, the Third Army of the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army had no choice but to continue the war in the scorching heat.

And the place where the fighting is most fierce right now is on Lantau Island.

-- Although forced by the situation, he had to continue to attack the stubborn enemy in Hong Kong. But the Red Army was first of all a little apprehensive about the dense forts on Hong Kong Island, like raisins in Christmas pudding, and worried that the sacrifice would be too great; Secondly, because of the hundreds of thousands of Chinese on the island, they are bound and do not dare to use weapons of mass destruction, so as not to cause a humanitarian disaster...... Therefore, after discussing with the generals of the Red Third Army for a long time, Zuihou still gave up his plan to directly attack Hong Kong Island, but on the one hand, he built artillery positions on the Kowloon Peninsula on the mainland, and constantly bombarded the key departments in Hong Kong's urban area on the other side of Victoria Bay, creating an atmosphere of panic; On the other hand, start from the periphery. Gradually uproot the British strongholds around Hong Kong Island, cut off foreign aid on Hong Kong Island, and constantly increase the psychological pressure on the defenders on the island. Eventually crushed it for a forced landing.

If this method succeeded, the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army would have been able to take over a relatively intact Hong Kong Island, rather than a pile of scorched and smoking rubble after street fighting, under this tactic, Lantau Island had become the primary target at this stage in order to clear the outer defense line of Hong Kong Island, cut off the possible foreign aid of the British troops stationed in Hong Kong, and reduce the space for the British fleet to operate.

Lantau Island is located on the western side of Hong Kong Island. With a total area of 142 square kilometres, Lantau Island is larger than Hong Kong Island in terms of the size of the island. Even more than Saipan in the Pacific Ocean. The island is strategically located on the west side of Victoria Bay, where it holds two sea lanes. In addition, if long-range shelling of Hong Kong Island is carried out from Lantau Island, it can directly bombard Repulse Bay and Stanley anchorage on the southern side of Hong Kong Island. The British fleet had nowhere to live. And not like the guns were fired on the Kowloon Peninsula. On the way, it was blocked by Taiping Mountain.

But the problem is that the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army can understand the truth, and there is no reason why the British troops stationed in Hong Kong cannot judge it.

Thus, although at the very beginning of the battle, two regiments of the Red Army took assault boats from the pier on the northern shore of Victoria Bay, forced their way across a narrow sea area only a few kilometers wide, and seized the Chek Lap Kok Fort at the northern tip of Lantau Island with lightning speed—since it was a dedicated coastal defense battery, it was much worse defended on the land side—but. When the Red Army continued to advance southward, it began to encounter resistance.

- The British troops stationed in Hong Kong who reacted. It also urgently mobilized the small fleet on Hong Kong Island and continuously increased its forces on Lantau Island.

As a result, a new round of all-out fierce battles on land, sea and air broke out around Lantau Island.

At this time, although the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army had air supremacy, it was unable to restrict the actions of the British fleet due to the quality and quantity of its aircraft and the difficulty of attacking the sea, and modern shore-based missiles were also difficult to put into use in this sea area lined with islands because of the complicated terrain in Hong Kong waters.

In the same way, although the British troops stationed in Hong Kong had the right to control the sea, on the one hand, they had to endure endless bombardment by planes, and on the other hand, they were often bombarded by the Red Army's shore artillery in narrow waters, and in addition, they had to maneuver with the gunboats of the Red Army's Pearl River Fleet, and they could not stop the Red Army from landing on the island one after another.

As a result, the battle quickly turned into a messy skirmish, constantly draining the will and blood of both sides......

“…… Alas, fighting in such a hot and smoking dog day is really unpleasant! ”

Luo Dayong, the squad leader, raised his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead, and just wanted to drink some water to moisten his throat, but found that the kettle on his waist was empty, so he had to lick his lips, and then continued to lead the soldiers of his squad, stepping forward on the bumpy mountain road with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

- Luo Dayong was originally a clerk in Guangzhou, but he was developed into an underground party very early, and joined the army after the liberation of Guangzhou, and continued to make revolutions with great enthusiasm. Because he went to elementary school and knew a little culture, he was promoted to squad leader and took a group of Guangdong recruits to the battlefield to train in battle.

At this time, the hair of these revolutionary young people in Guangzhou was shaved, and they wore 87-style camouflage training uniforms to set off the tiger and tiger anger of people who practiced martial arts.

Although they have only been in the army for less than a month, these Guangdong recruits have already opened their eyes because they have been exposed to too many novelties. First of all, there are all kinds of personal items, one person has three sets of camouflage training uniforms, two sets of Type 87 army summer uniforms, two pairs of liberation shoes, two sets of undershirts and shorts; There are also belts, trouser belts, military satchels, water bottles, blankets, backpacks, steel helmets, sapper shovels, towels, toothbrushes, enamel cups, plastic washbasins, and a host of other things...... The "luxury" of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army, the legendary "Hanako Army", is really much beyond the imagination of all recruits. A small number of soldiers from decent families were better, and the vast majority of poor people who were born wearing only tattered clothes and did not even have a pair of straw sandals were so excited that they burst into tears when they received the new clothes and shoes, and they all swore in their hearts that they would have to work hard even if they were wearing this clothes!

However, now, under the scorching sun, after walking on the lush Lantau Island for most of the day, Luo Dayong couldn't wait to take off all his clothes, so he simply went into battle shirtless...... Fortunately, today's hard trek was somewhat worthwhile, because after bypassing a junction fortifications guarded by British troops, they quickly found their target - a warship moored on the beach not far away, unloading soldiers!

Luo Dayong took a deep breath of stuffy air, turned around and gestured for everyone to quickly hide, and then took off the microphone of the walkie-talkie:

“…… Cave! Cave! I'm a cave crutch! I'm a cave crutch! I found a British battleship in Fried Fish Bay! Please reply when you hear it! Please reply when you hear it! (To be continued......)
