Chapter 268
Xu Shijiu was paced back and forth in the telecommunications room with his hands on his back, his face full of anxiety.
Just early yesterday morning, Japan suffered an earth-shaking event. Their naval joint fleet attacked Pearl Harbor, the base of the US Navy's Pacific Fleet. This incident directly angered the United States. The United States declared war on Japan that morning and joined the World Anti-Fascist Alliance.
However, just one day passed, and the Japanese army also had a major event.
Just this morning, the 38th Division of the Little Japanese Army launched an attack on the main island of Hong Kong from the New Territories. More than 10,000 Indian and British troops stationed in Hong Kong were defeated by a mere infantry brigade of Japan.
This battle directly helped the Japanese army establish a psychological advantage in the face of the British army. Later, on the Malay Peninsula, Fengwen was able to create another brilliant victory. The old Japanese raided thousands of kilometers long distances and directly annihilated more than 100,000 British troops in Singapore.
Yamashita Tomoto also won the reputation of the Malay Tiger for this.
Xu Shijiu did not care about the life and death of the British, and he did not even care about the guards of Hong Kong. After all, although Hong Kong was still in China a hundred years ago, Hong Kong is now a British colony and a shame for all Chinese people. Therefore, Xu Shijiu did not care about the guards of Hong Kong.
However, in Hong Kong, there are people Xu Shijiu is concerned about.
Because, Yu Jiaxi and her parents are now in Hong Kong.
Seeing Ye Ruxue put down her earplugs, Xu Shijiu hurried over and asked her: "How is it? Is there any contact?
Ye Ruxue's relationship with the Military Control Commission has gradually faded away, but she still maintains the superficial contact between superiors and subordinates.
The Military Intelligence Bureau is a huge intelligence organization and of course it also has branches in Hong Kong. In fact, the Military Intelligence Bureau Hong Kong Station has always been an important intelligence station.
What Ye Ruxue just tried to contact was the Military Control Commission Hong Kong Station.
Unfortunately, no matter how Ye Ruxue called, the Hong Kong station never responded.
Ye Ruxue raised her head and found that there was unconcealed disappointment in Xu Shijiu's eyes, and even the voice of her speech trembled slightly. Ye Ruxue's heart was inexplicably throbbing. She really didn't want to tell Xu Shijiu: The Military Control Commission Hong Kong Station has never been able to contact him, which only means that the situation in Hong Kong is already very bad.
"Director Ye, is the situation not good?" Xu Shijiu read a look of compassion from Ye Ruxue's eyes and asked.
Ye Ruxue sighed softly and comforted Xu Shijiu: "Commander, the situation in Hong Kong is not good, but Sister Jiaxi's father is the executive director of the Central Trust Bureau. Maybe they had heard the news and evacuated Hong Kong early before Japan attacked Hong Kong."
"I heard the sound of the wind and evacuate Hong Kong early?" Xu Shijiu shook his head. He didn't dare to be so optimistic.
In fact, before the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, no one expected that Japan would be so crazy. How could the various offices of the National Government in Hong Kong hear the rumor and evacuate in advance? At this moment, Xu Shijiu wanted to put on his wings and fly to Hong Kong and personally lead troops to protect Yu Jiaxi's family and break through the siege.

At this time, Hong Kong had become a burning hell.
"Xiaojiu, where is my Xiaojiu? Where is my Xiaojiu?" Yu Jiaxi followed her parents out of the door in a hurry. When she turned around, she disappeared. She also disappeared. She hurriedly turned back and screamed like crazy, "Xiaojiu, Xiaojiuer..."
Yu Hongjun and his wife, who had arrived outside the door, were about to get on the bus, heard the news and quickly turned home.
"Jiaxi, what's wrong with Jiaxi?" Yu Hongjun caught up with Yu Jiaxi and asked.
"Xiaojiu, Xiaojiu is gone, my Xiaojiu." Yu Jiaxi felt that her heart was like being held by something. If Xiaojiu really couldn't find it, she really didn't know how to survive in the future. Xiaojiu has become her only spiritual sustenance in this world.
While talking, Yu Jiaxi had already run outside the baby room. Then, she saw the nurse pushing the stroller and hurried out of the baby room. She was holding a tiger-head hat in her hand. There was a ball of pomrose wool wool on the tiger-head hat. It was very cute. This tiger-head hat was specially brought back from Singapore by Yu Hongjun to give it to his grandson as a full moon gift. The nurse just went back to find the hat.
"Xiaojiu, my Xiaojiu" Yu Jiaxi breathed a sigh of relief and stepped forward and picked up the child from the stroller.
Seeing Yu Jiaxi standing there with her grandson in her arms, she burst into tears, Yu Hongjun sighed.
At the beginning of the year, Yu Jiaxi returned to the Guotong District from the occupied area and then moved to Hong Kong, which really made Yu Hongjun and the old couple very happy. They were born in a war-torn era and could be reunited with their loved ones who had been separated for several years. How much blessing would it be? Yu Hongjun and his wife really never thought that one day they would be able to reunite with their baby daughter.
However, Yu Hongjun did not expect that his precious children would bring back a granddaughter to the old couple.
On the night before arriving in Hong Kong, Mrs. Yu found that her daughter had vomited for no reason. At first, she thought it was because of the fatigue of the boat, but for several consecutive days, Mrs. Yu began to become suspicious, and then found a well-known old Chinese doctor to take a pulse for Yu Jiaxi. As a result, she told Mrs. Yu that Yu Jiaxi had been pregnant for two months.
The daughter was not yet married, but she was pregnant. Of course, Yu Hongjun and his wife were very surprised, so they asked Yu Jiaxi repeatedly, but Yu Jiaxi could only tell them everything.
When he heard that his baby daughter was pregnant with Xu Shijiu's child and Xu Shijiu became a traitor, Mrs. Yu Hongjun became anxious and firmly asked Yu Jiaxi to abort the child, but Yu Jiaxi was firmly different.
In September, a pink baby girl was born. Because she was born on the Double Ninth Festival in September, Yu Jiaxi gave her baby daughter a nickname, Jiujiu, also known as Xiaojiu. As soon as her granddaughter was born, Yu Hongjun's resentment immediately turned into infinite kindness, and she was extremely dear to this granddaughter who was like a pink jade pecking girl.
At this time, the housekeeper hurried in and said, "Master, Madam, go quickly. If you don't leave, I'm worried that the Queen will start the ship."
"Oh, yes, Jiaxi, let's go quickly." Yu Hongjun woke up as if he was dreaming.
The family left the Yu Mansion gate and took two cars to Victoria Harbor.
Along the way, Yu Hongjun looked at Yu Jiaxi who was holding Xiaojiu. He couldn't help but want to tell Yu Jiaxi the truth several times, telling her that Xu Shijiu did not betray the motherland, but when he said that he was right, he held back. Although Xu Shijiu said he had not treason, his relationship with the National Government was already in full swing and would probably be resolved by Chairman Jiang in the future. Therefore, it would be better for Jiaxi and Xiaojiu not to be involved with him.

The outbreak of the Pacific War greatly changed the situation in Asia.
In just a few months after the Pearl Harbor incident, the Japanese army swept across Southeast Asia with the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.
Guderian repeatedly fought classic blitzkriegs in Europe with his tank cluster, while Yamashita Tomoto fought the same blitzkrieg with tens of thousands of bicycles on the Malay Peninsula. It has to be said that although the Japanese nation has its own bad nature, its learning skills are really nothing to say.
However, Japan is just a small island country after all. After swallowing almost all islands in Southeast Asia and the Western Pacific, its manpower, material resources and military power have reached its limit. So when Japan continues to advance westward to try to annex Myanmar and even India, it is hit by a head-on attack by the Chinese Expeditionary Force.
Faced with the cruel reality that the only lifeline of the Yunnan-Burma Highway may be cut off by the Japanese army, 400,000 expeditionary soldiers sacrificed their lives and fought cruelly with the Japanese army in a foreign country. Finally, after paying the heavy price of 200,000 casualties, they finally curbed the crazy offensive of the little Japanese and maintained the only life channel connected to the outside world.
Then the American war machine began to move with all its might.
Western culture and Eastern culture are essentially different, but when a country faces the threat of life and death, and when a country's dignity is greatly insulted, the reaction of any country in the world is completely consistent, that is, to fight back
