The blockade of the Amur Bay with mines is in itself an 'impossible' task, and no normal commander would choose to lay mines on rafts in broad daylight, which is fundamentally contrary to basic military principles. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

With a six-kilometer-long bay width, the cavalry regiment could clean the sentry posts on the west bank and create a safe environment for the mine-laying soldiers, but as the raft gradually approached the east coast, the main city of Vladivostok, it was inevitable to encounter enemy attacks.

The closer the range of the artillery, the more accurate it becomes, and within two kilometers is the insurmountable moat of the raft, and the rifle fire can extend to a distance of four or five hundred meters, which means that even if these rafts are all sacrificed here, the last kilometer gap is difficult to block.

The last kilometer, this is the area with the highest casualty rate among the dead soldiers, but if this last kilometer is not blocked, then the Russians' eighteen warships will not be able to block it at all.

At the critical moment of the battle, Tiyachenko had already understood Chinese's intentions, and he clenched his fists with both hands, and the back of his hands was bruised, "What a brilliant plan, this is a life left behind, damn it, damn it......"

"Send a signal to Aitorin to let the whole navy break through and leave us alone...... Let them preserve their strength, break through and go north to Sakhalin...... Access to inland waterways from the mouth of the Amur ......"

"Let them join forces with the Cossack cavalry regiments, and the naval guns will open the way for the cavalry regiments...... Let's not forget that the Amur River will soon thaw, and we must not let our cavalry be held back by the river!"

At the most critical moment, Tiyachenko made the right decision, he had already made up his mind to sacrifice the army in Vladivostok, but the navy had to survive, rush out of the Great Peter Bay, all the way north to Sakhalin Island in search of supplies, and then when the Amur River thawed, small warships could enter the inland waterways.

This is to add a double insurance to the Central Asian cavalry regiment, and what Tiachenko fears most is that the cavalry regiment will not have time to cross the river, the ice will be broken, and if such a situation really occurs, the situation in the Far East will be irretrievable.

Of course, Ettolins knew the importance of this matter, and with the Chinese of the frantic pace of construction, as long as he could control the Far East for a year, no, no, no...... Even in half a year, these Chinese can turn the entire eastern bank of the Ussuri River into a fortress jungle, so that no enemy can get a mouthful.

A nation that can build the miracle of the Great Wall of China, building a military fortress is actually no different from growing crops, and this nation is good at this.

As long as the cavalry regiment is blocked on the north bank of the Amur River for half a year, it would be wishful thinking to attack while it was freezing.

"The order was given, and the whole army broke through and rushed out of the safe waters to the east...... Avoid the enemy's mine array!"

The Navy stopped shelling, the boilers turned on full pressure, the propellers stirred the seawater, and the warships of tens of thousands of tonnage began to twist their butts in the bay and turn around and break through to the south.

It was a race against time, and the dead soldiers of the volunteers on the sea were forcing their way to the east coast regardless of their lives and deaths, and they did not hesitate to let the cannonballs fall on them like hailstones.

The Russian soldiers who were waiting on the shore had already loaded their bullets, and as soon as the raft reached a range of 400 meters, they would open fire, and the artillery could not hold a safe crossing of one kilometer, so the soldiers' rifles would have to hold a safe passage of life for 400 meters.

One by one, the warships in the north pounced on the blockade line like hungry wolves, and all the officers and men of the navy shouted with hideous faces, "Rush out, if you want to live, rush out for me...... Speed up, fire!"

Far beyond the firing range, the cannon has already begun to roar, and the white waves on the sea are surging!

All the dead soldiers are like weak ants climbing on the leaves in the storm, they use their lives to complete the task, the screams of their comrades around them cannot be heard, and the sea water mixed with blood splashes on their faces and cannot be seen clearly, and there is only one target in their eyes, that is, the east coast.

"Brothers, with a little more effort, Vladivostok is ahead...... We can't let the brothers die in vain!"

"Revenge! Since the day Lao Tzu signed up to be this dead man, I didn't want to go back alive...... Folks, wait for me, I have avenged you......"

One after another, the unloaded mines were thrown into the sea, the wreckage of the blown raft was scattered everywhere, and the explosive shrapnel whizzed through the soldiers' bodies, and blood gushed like a fountain.

1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,...... Finally, at the last moment, the Russian troops on the other side were already red-eyed, and the commander shouted more than 400 soldiers on the shore, and the flames of the muzzles of the guns were connected into a line on the ground.

Bullets rained down, and the dead who rushed to the front were suddenly beaten into a sieve, and their bodies rolled in the sea, and the shells ignited the mines on the raft, and the waves of water caused by the chain explosion were like a torrential rain out of thin air.

The flesh and blood could hardly resist the roar of steel and gunpowder, and four hundred meters was the line of life and death, and the dead soldiers of the cavalry regiment could not rush this time.

The cannonballs in the sky are still whizzing, and the gunfire on the opposite bank is extinguishing in rows, which is not the most terrible, the most terrible thing is that once the mines on the raft are detonated, they will immediately produce a chain explosion, and even the surrounding rafts will be affected.

Boom Boom Boom ...... The sound of explosions was endless, Ye Qiu and Pang Chaoyun and their painful tears flowed "Brother, ......" The west bank was a wail, and people watched as all their efforts were shattered in the last four hundred meters.

"Woooooooooo......oo Brother, it's just a little bit, it's a little bit close...... Please, come on!" wept the horsemen kneeling on the beach.

I don't know when, the sound of explosions on the sea gradually died down, the smoke and waves of the water dispersed, and the Amur Bay returned to tranquility, at this time only a raft was still floating on the bay, and a lone soldier stood motionless on the raft.

His ears were deaf, shrapnel had blinded his eyes, blood was oozing from his features, and there was even a blood groove on the top of his head that was bleeding down.

His men subconsciously reached behind him, he wanted to continue his mission, but there was nothing behind him, the waves from the latest explosion had thrown the remaining mines into the sea, and at the moment there was nothing on his raft but himself.

The soldier tried to say something, but there was a tingle in his throat, and he knelt on the raft and drank three mouthfuls of bloody seawater before he regained his ability to speak.

The Russian soldier on the opposite bank raised his rifle and wanted to shoot, but the officer suppressed his rifle and said, "Wait, I want to see what this Chinese wants to do!"

Everyone present was shocked by the scene in front of them, what could a man who had completely lost his ability to fight, and what did he want to do?
