I always felt that the British, using the excuse of the war, would retain control of Hong Kong. There were enough fears in the real world when Hong Kong switched hands and that wasn't during a war. I think everyone, except maybe the Chinese, would want Hong Kong to stay in the hands of the British for stability and security. I'm sure there would be a stipulation that once the hostilities were over, the switch over would occur as was planned...just later. Of course all of that would become moot once the nukes started flying.
