日落香江：香港对日作战纪实（修订版）
Mo Shixiang
In early 1941, the Japanese government advised the Japanese living in Hong Kong to return to the country as soon as possible, which foreshadowed that the Japanese army would launch an attack on Hong Kong in the short term. On December 6, the last batch of about 10 Japanese overseas Chinese took a boat to Guangzhou, which was occupied by the Japanese army. Two days later, three regiments of the 38th Division commanded by Lieutenant General Takashi Sakai crossed the border and attacked Hong Kong from Ta Kwu Ling, Luo Wu and San Tin. Although this battle only lasted eighteen days, it changed the history of Hong Kong, broke up many beautiful families, and many people lost their precious lives as a result. The author of this book believes that the authenticity of history and the readability of literature are mutually exclusive and are the vitality that makes literary and historical works popular and sustainable. Therefore, this book adopts the form of historical documentary, based on detailed historical archives and documents, and relies on literary imagination and description of historical scenes and specific details, striving to faithfully and vividly show this eighteen-day war that affected the historical development of Hong Kong.
