Chapter 695: Treason (Asking for a Monthly Pass)

In the Anbao area, the temporary station of the 8th Infantry Division of the Imperial Army, the whole camp was busy, the quartermaster was distributing ammunition, and the soldiers who had completed their preparations were gathering to enter the Xiangjiang River in accordance with the orders issued by the General Staff.

"Cheer up Lao Tzu, we are the first troops to enter Xiangjiang, and we must not disgrace the empire." Major General Li Zhenwu, commander of the 8th Infantry Division, was reprimanding a group of men.

"Division commander, please rest assured, we are the elite of the Imperial Army, how can we disgrace the Empire? But if the British stop us, are we going to fight back? A colonel asked.

"Nonsense, if you don't fight back, do you stand and be beaten? Could it be that you are made of steel. According to the plan we had drawn up earlier, the divisional reconnaissance battalion first crossed the boundary street and advanced all the way to Xiangjiang Island. The 81st Infantry Regiment followed, and finally the 82nd Infantry Regiment. Xiangjiang is only such a palm-sized place, I only have one request, that is, before it gets dark today, I must control the entire Xiangjiang, and there can be no negligence. Major General Li Zhenwu said loudly.

"Yes, Commander." The officers replied one after another.

Half an hour later, the divisional reconnaissance battalion of the 8th Infantry Division set out from the station and headed straight for Boundary Street. At the moment, the British colonial government of Hong Kong only had a few policemen on Boundary Street. When they saw the dark green waves of people quickly sweeping towards them, they were all stupid.

"Fack! The Chinese attacked. "A young man raised his rifle and was about to shoot.

"Smack!" A slap slapped him hard in the face, staggering him and causing a nosebleed.

"Fake, you're looking for death, don't bother us." His boss roared.

"Lay down our arms, we surrender. We're just police. Not a soldier. Against the Chinese, it is better to leave it to those who are soldiers. A middle-aged policeman ordered directly.

So, all these policemen laid down their weapons and obediently raised their hands in surrender. Although this would damage the prestige of the British Empire, it would be better than being killed, right? The performance of the Chinese Expeditionary Force on the European battlefield. It has already shocked the countries of Europe. Even these little cops know. Naturally, they won't hit a stone with an egg.

After the policemen gave up resistance, the reconnaissance battalion of the 8th Infantry Division of the Imperial Army successfully took control of Boundary Street. However, the reconnaissance battalion did not stop at all, leaving an infantry squad to take over, and the rest continued to march towards the hinterland of the Xiangjiang River.

Trucks drove across Boundary Street and set foot on the land that had been forcibly occupied by the British for nearly 80 years. From this moment on, this land once again returned to the hands of the Chinese.

Faced with a surprise attack by the 8th Infantry Division of the Imperial Army. The British were simply unprepared. In fact, Britain's military power in Xiangjiang was already very weak. In the entire Xiangjiang River, only one infantry regiment was deployed, less than 2,000 people. Such a small number of troops is not enough to stuff the 8th Infantry Division of the Chinese Army.

As for the policemen who maintained law and order, they all raised their hands and surrendered immediately after encountering the Chinese army. They take care of law and order. Bullying ordinary people, maybe there is nothing wrong with it. Let them take up arms. Fight with the regular army with real swords and guns, so forget it.

"Master Wang is finally here! The motherland has not forgotten us. An old man with gray hair couldn't help but cry when he looked at the truck that was moving quickly through the street and the Chinese soldiers on the truck.

The British have ruled Xiangjiang for nearly 80 years, which is almost a whole generation! I've been looking forward to it for so many years. The motherland has finally recovered Xiangjiang, and they no longer have to be left behind.

When the 8th Infantry Division of the Imperial Army entered Xiangjiang, the navy was also given orders. From now on, the navy will block the entire sea area near the Xiangjiang River and prohibit any ships from leaving the Xiangjiang River.

A passenger ship carrying many wealthy people wants to leave Xiangjiang. Travel to Singapore. However, as soon as he left the port, he was stopped by a destroyer of the Imperial Navy. Eventually, the ship had to return to port. The rich people on the ship scolded. However, it didn't work. They are more likely to express their anger in this way. They know that the Chinese are really going to do it this time. And these rich people who usually ride on the heads of the locals in Xiangjiang to make a fortune, I am afraid that this time they will be unlucky.

The Governor's Palace, Sir Stubbs, the Governor-General, was pale. He had just received the news that the Chinese Army had entered Xiangjiang. At the same time, news of the blockade of the Xiangjiang River by the Chinese Navy also came.

"Damn, those yellow-skinned monkeys really dare to attack, aren't they afraid of war with the British Empire? They are clearly challenging the bottom line of the British Empire! "Sir Stubbs really couldn't figure out why the Chinese Empire would take such a big risk.

"Your Excellency the Governor, what should we do? The Chinese army is approaching Xiangjiang Island. The Chinese navy has blocked the near sea, and we can't go anywhere. Henry, the secretary, looked panicked.

Now they can't escape from heaven and earth. The entire Xiangjiang River has been blockaded by the Chinese* army.

"Call Colonel Hardeman and ask him how things are going there." Sir Stubbs commanded. Colonel Hardeman was the commander of the infantry regiment of the British Army stationed in Xiangjiang, and the only force that Colonel Stubb could rely on.

"Yes, Your Excellency the Governor." Henry nodded.

However, a few minutes later, Henry came back to his life, and the expression on his face was even more ugly. Apparently, something happened to Colonel Hardeman's side as well.

"What's going on? Could it be that Colonel Hardeman and they were also attacked by the Chinese? Sir Stubbs asked in surprise. You know, if the Chinese* army takes the initiative to attack the British Army, then all this can make no difference at all.

"Your Excellency the Governor, the Chinese Army has surrounded the barracks. They set up artillery and machine guns outside the barracks, and Colonel Hardeman led his troops against the Chinese. It's just that everyone exercised restraint and did not fire. Henry said.

Sir Stubt was relieved that the Chinese did not directly attack their barracks, which showed that the Chinese did not really want to go to war. This time, the Chinese just want to use force to take back Xiangjiang.

"Report the situation here to the country. In the face of a massive invasion by the Chinese* army, we have no other way. Sir Stubbs said. He knew that there was no doubt that the Chinese would take back Xiangjiang. However, he was not reconciled. Because, a large fleet sent by the British Royal Navy is coming to the Far East. Perhaps, there will be a large-scale naval battle between the navies of the two countries. If the Royal Navy can win, then there is still a possibility of a turnaround. As for whether the Royal Navy could win, Sir Stubbs had no doubt about this. With the strength of the Royal Navy, can't it defeat the Chinese Navy, which has just risen for a short time?

Compared with the Royal Navy, which has been the dominant maritime hegemon for hundreds of years, the Chinese Navy, although it has many warships and a larger tonnage, is at best an upstart. How can it be compared to the Royal Navy?

In the afternoon of the same day, the reconnaissance battalion of the 8th Infantry Division of the Imperial Army arrived on the other side of Xiangjiang Island. Here, the transport ships of the Navy are already waiting here. The reconnaissance battalion got on the transport ship directly, sailed through the strait and landed on Xiangjiang Island. The whole process was not hindered in any way. The British, as if they had given up resistance, allowed the Chinese* army to control the whole of Xiangjiang.

Before the sun went down, the 8th Infantry Division of the Imperial Army controlled the entire Xiangjiang River. The British* barracks were surrounded, and the rest of the police were disarmed. The security of Xiangjiang is entirely the responsibility of the Imperial Army.

According to the Empire's plan, in the early stage of recovering Xiangjiang, the Empire will temporarily exercise military control over Xiangjiang. On the one hand, it is to maintain the law and order of Xiangjiang, so as not to take advantage of the fire and robbery by those with bad intentions. On the other hand, it is necessary to take advantage of this opportunity to dig out all those hostile elements. Especially those who forgot their ancestors and betrayed the empire.

The car of Major General Li Zhenwu, commander of the 8th Infantry Division, drove directly in front of the Xiangjiang Governor's Palace, and Sir Situ Ba, the Governor of Xiangjiang, had already been taken away. Until China and Britain reach an agreement on the Xiangjiang issue, he will be imprisoned.

"Follow this list, hunt down those guys." Major General Li Zhenwu took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to the adjutant.

"Yes, Commander." The adjutant nodded and immediately went to make arrangements.

That piece of paper was drawn up by the Imperial * Military Intelligence Agency, and the people on it were all lackeys of the British colonial government. Now, after the empire has recovered Xiangjiang, it naturally can't let those guys go. Among them, Huang Fengzhi, who thinks he is the leader of the Xiangjiang Democratic Party, is ranked first.

The Imperial Army, led by intelligence officers from the Intelligence Bureau, hunted down traitors and traitors. One night, Huang Fengzhi and dozens of other backbones were all arrested.

"I am British, you have no right to arrest me, this is a provocation to the British Empire. The British Empire won't let you guys go. After being caught, Huang Fengzhi shouted loudly, without any intention of repentance.

"British? Hmph, it seems that you are determined to be a traitor. The officer in charge of arresting these guys said coldly.

"Traitor? I am not Chinese at all, how can I say that I am a traitor. I am British, not you lowly Chinese. Huang Fengzhi said shamelessly.

At this time, Li Zhenwu's adjutant appeared.

"The division commander ordered that all these traitors be shot for treason."

"Ahh Those traitors all screamed, but they didn't expect the Chinese* soldiers to kill them directly.

"No, you can't kill me, I'm British, and you haven't been approved yet."

"Bang!" Gunshots rang out, and Huang Fengzhi was the first to be shot and fell. (To be continued.) )
