7:00 This is not Hong Kong, but Anqing, the former capital of Anhui Province. This is a video about the Japanese Marines invading along the Yangtse river.

Good catch, it shows Okamoto Butai (Shanghai SNLF 11th Battalion) capturing Anqing. The commander, Okamoto would be KIA enroute to Kiukiang in the subsequent operation.
