This is the only one I found prior to 22 May 1940:

14 May 1940
Hs 123 (II./LG 2) damaged by Flak at Tirlemont. Lt. G. Dorffel safe. Aircraft reduced to salvage (80%).

I have 3 more from the Bingham book:

5 June 1940:
Hs 123 (II./LG 2) destroyed taxiing at Pusieux, 100%
Hs 123 (II./LG 2) shot down in combat, 100%
Hs 123 (II./LG 2) motor fire, 100%

No further information given in Bingham, which lists nothing for Hs 123's for 6 and 12 June.
