Kind of like random Iraqi and Afghani militias not being capable or resisting US marines. Oh wait. You’d be surprised what an armed population can do to resist a superior force when it comes to guerilla warfare.
- tluyben2 7y agoHK is very small; that would worry me. If you have ever been there... I walk everything there; I only take the MTR to cross Kowloon<>Central or the ferry Lamma<>Central. There is some beautiful nature but it is not vast; there is no massive landmass to hide out etc. We are talking 400.000+ km^2 vs less than 1500 km^2... You cannot 'retreat to the mountain hideouts'.
