What options did the British have to prevent/oppose a Chinese invasion of Hong Kong when it was their colony?
The British had a small military garrison versus the large Chinese Red Army. How could the British have opposed a Chinese invasion if their colony was invaded or attacked?
The British Option was to strike their colors and Leave.The Chinese have the largest standing Army in the World and are formidable(Ask the guys who served in Korea)Hong Kong was a British Crown Colony,not a Possession.To battle the Chinese with their backs to the Harbor would have been suicidal.
