    In the outskirts of the city south of Kunming, flags fluttering in the wind are tumbling like ocean waves, and battle formations and military camps are densely packed like a forest.  Tanks and armored vehicles lined up majestically to form the Great Steel Wall. Groups of well-equipped Northeast Army soldiers held the steel guns tightly in their hands and tensed up, waiting for the order to attack.  In an open space in the center of the Northeast Army troops that had assembled and prepared to attack, eight specially-made 208mm giant howitzers that had been cast and transported from the Ninth Arsenal (i.e., Xi'an Arsenal) lay prone like eight murderous steel giants.  , the surrounding artillerymen were working hard to load artillery shells. The huge 1.5-meter-long artillery shell required four loaders and the use of special tools to lift it.  In the air, two "Black Bat" light reconnaissance aircraft flew over the Japanese defensive positions outside Kunming City despite the sparse Japanese anti-aircraft fire in the city, providing correction data for the giant artillery behind them.

    The Japanese positions inside and outside the city were almost eerily quiet, as if a man who knew he was going to die was calmly waiting for a vicious ghost to come and demand his life in the middle of the night.  Major General Chu Qiming, who had just been promoted by Zhang Xueliang to the Chief of Staff of the Southwest Theater and Commander of the Northeastern Army's "Southwestern Front Army", was wearing a straight military uniform, his gloves were as white as snow, and his military boots were as shiny as ink. At this time, he was standing in the company of several staff officers of the military department.  He carefully observed Kunming City on a hilltop outside the city.  Chu Qiming calmly looked at this "city with four seasons of spring" in the distance, his face already showing a feeling of victory.  He knew very well that the reason why the Japanese troops in the city were so calm was not because they were secretly preparing to counterattack, but because they were directly waiting for death and destruction to come.  Just think about it, an army without soldiers, arms, food, medicine and other logistical supplies and still losing air supremacy, what else can it do besides resigning itself to fate and waiting for the fate of failure?

    At nine o'clock, "Let's begin." Chu Qiming's voice was very calm.

    "Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!" Three red signal bombs soared into the sky, "Boom!¡ª¡ª" Eight huge clouds of gray-white smoke soared into the sky together with the earth-shattering sound of blasting that tore the sky apart, and then eight mushroom clouds  A brilliant fireball like a fireball suddenly rose into the sky carrying a large number of fortification cement fragments and human flesh and blood remains on the Japanese army's position. One of the 208mm artillery shells hit the outer wall of Kunming City. Amidst the sudden explosion of dust and black smoke that covered the sky,  The city wall was blasted open, creating a gap as big as a basketball court.  The Japanese troops were covered in blood and flesh, and their bodies were littered with dead and wounded.  In the fortifications of the Northeast Army's giant artillery, even though their ears were stuffed with thick cotton balls, the gunners who controlled the giant artillery were still shocked one after another by the super strong sound waves and were temporarily deafened and tinnitus.  Lieutenant General Wu Keren, commander-in-chief of the Northeast Army's artillery, who stood more than ten meters away from the giant cannon and carefully observed the effects of the bombardment, was caught off guard and was almost knocked to the ground by the oncoming sonic air wave. The artillery officers, including Lieutenant General Wu, were almost thrown to the ground.  All the watches he was wearing were shattered at the same time.

    The huge power of the first wave of 208 mm cannons had already frightened the Japanese army in Kunming and made them nervous. However, before the Japanese army could take a breath, the second wave of bombardment by the Northeast Army followed quickly, with various types of howitzers and cannons.  , plus howitzers, infantry artillery and 120mm heavy mortars, the carpet-like bombardment shook the Japanese defense positions inside and outside Kunming, and they were all plunged into a sea of ????fire. Large areas of the Japanese army were directly blown to ashes.  No bones remain.  "Kill!" Amidst thunderous shouts and killing sounds, the soldiers of the Northeastern Army all over the mountains and plains, under the cover of tanks and armored vehicles, swept unstoppably towards Kunming like a stormy flood.

    On the morning of the 25th, when the Northeast Army's battle to recapture Kunming began on the southwest battlefield, the turbulent northern waters of the South China Sea were also turbulent.  In the sparkling sea and sky, a huge aircraft carrier fleet cuts through the waves, like a sharp sword piercing straight towards Hong Kong, the "Pearl of the Orient" at the southernmost tip of mainland China.

    On the bridge control tower of the flagship aircraft carrier "Victory", Major General Dong Yanjie, Chief of Staff of the Northeast Army and Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the South China Sea Fleet, looked proudly at his South China Sea Fleet. In order to regain Hong Kong, which was originally part of China, in this battle, the Northeast Army in the South China Sea  All the best of the fleet were dispatched.  Rear Admiral Dong's fleet includes a 23,000-ton medium aircraft carrier, three 10,800-ton Challenger heavy cruisers, six U-boats, four destroyers and four frigates.  Under the sunlight, the steel stern ships became more and more majestic and extraordinary, which made Rear Admiral Dong and other naval officers of the South China Sea Fleet look excited and high-spirited. There are "thousands of miles of rivers and mountains and thousands of miles of sea territory".  The heroic style in the chest.

    After the aircraft carrier fleet, came the transport ships carrying the first wave of landing troops, composed of the 5th and 10th Motorized Infantry Brigades of the Northeast Army drawn from Qiongwan Province.  Major General Dong looked back at the landing troops who were ready and high-spirited, and couldn't help but recall the conversation he had with Admiral Shen Honglie, deputy commander-in-chief of the Navy, before setting off.Under the air cover of the Osprey medium-sized bombers, they sang triumphant songs all the way and easily advanced to the Lantau Island through the Tsing Ma Bridge. The British troops on the island basically had no fighting spirit and surrendered one after another. Only the two tiger-headed British troops and the Indian troops  A company resisted stubbornly, but was quickly wiped out by the bombs dropped by the "Ospreys". In this way, the British Governor's Office and the remaining defenders trapped on Hong Kong Island were blocked from escaping north to the Japanese-occupied areas in South China.  dead, and the waters of Hong Kong were also blockaded by the Northeastern Army fleet. The British colonial authorities were completely surrounded by the Northeastern Army and there was absolutely no way to escape.

    After nightfall, sporadic gunshots still rang out one after another on the New Territories Peninsula. It was the exchange of fire between the Northeastern Army and the British Army in close combat.  But the entire city of Hong Kong is still a brightly lit "city that never sleeps" because during the day, Northeastern Army bombers distributed a large number of leaflets to the city. The leaflets said in impassioned Chinese (traditional characters):

    "Hong Kong compatriots! Our Northeast Army is here to drive away the British colonialists and liberate Hong Kong! Hong Kong compatriots, for the reunification of the motherland and the return of Hong Kong, please unite with us!" At the same time, the Northeast Army also issued a leaflet to Hong Kong citizens.  We solemnly promise that the Northeastern Army's aircraft and warships will never bomb or shell cities, residential buildings or civilian facilities, and the Northeastern Army guarantees to absolutely protect the lives and property of the Chinese after capturing Hong Kong.

    These promises and guarantees made the originally panic-stricken Chinese residents of Hong Kong relax and no longer panic about the Northeast Army and this war; while the foreign businessmen and British colonial officials on the island felt as if the end of the world was coming.  They were all in panic all day long.

    At 12 o'clock at night, in Victoria Harbor under the stars and moon, a small motorboat drew a wake of water waves on the sparkling sea, sailing from the Northeastern Army's fleet to the Wan Chai Ferry Terminal in the north of Hong Kong Island.  The two searchlight beams on the British defense position on the shore immediately discovered and tightly covered the motorboat.  "Who?!" the highly nervous British soldiers on the beach shouted, and the "Lee Enfield-4" rifle in their hands made a loud bolt pull sound.

    "I am the military envoy. On behalf of our Commander Dong, I would like to see your Governor Yang Muqi and General Maltby." After the motorboat docked, a Major of the Chinese Northeast Army Navy who was leading the boat calmly replied in English.  .

    The blue eyes of the British soldiers flashed with suspicion. After they carefully inspected the three Northeastern officers and soldiers on the motorboat from head to toe, the leading British captain made a move.  Said: "Follow me." (Remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com
