Knock, the floor made of steel was driven by a sound of footsteps, and a sound of praise sounded, Li He turned around and saw that it was Yan Fu, chief of staff of the United Fleet, who came over.

"Commander, in three hours, we will arrive in the waters of the Tsushima Strait, and you can see if the time will speed up."

As the chief of staff, Yan Fu blamed the waters of the Tsushima Strait as a particularly dangerous area, with many corals in it, and once someone ambushed it or near the exit of the Tsushima Strait, it would be a huge threat to the fleets that had passed.

As the commander-in-chief, Li He also knew in his heart that the reason why Yan Fu was doing this was to use the speed advantage to quickly pass through the Ma Strait.

"Yes, notify the whole ship, enter the Tsushima Strait and the fourteenth speed of the whole ship will pass, and the gunners of each ship will be in position and ready to meet at any time.

Understood, Yan Fu nodded, turned around and walked out, and began to give orders.

After receiving the order, the flag soldier standing on the mast waved the signal flag in his hand quickly.

The ships that received the order began to increase the amount of coal and increase the pressure in order to prepare for the acceleration in the near future.

In Lushun, the sea breeze blew into Shangjun's office with rainwater.

Bang, Liu Jun, who picked up the command pole, tapped a few times on the map, and then turned around and looked at Zhong Lin who was standing next to him: "They should have arrived at the Tsushima Strait." ”

"The First Fleet is coming in immediately, the Second Fleet is passing through, and it is estimated that the dog will be able to pass in four hours." After speaking, Zhong Lin saw that Liu Jun was sitting on the chair and was silent, so he pondered and stepped forward and asked, "Head, are you worried about something?" ”

There was no objection, Liu Jun nodded and saw that the two did not understand, so he stood up from yizhi and walked to the map, pointing to the Tsushima Strait: "You say, will the Japanese Combined Fleet ambush near the exit." ”

"Head, this is impossible, now that the strength of the Japanese Combined Fleet has been greatly damaged, where will it come to ambush the huge First Fleet." Zhong Lin did not hesitate at all, stepped forward and said.

It's impossible, Liu Jun also hopes that this thing is impossible, but now is an extraordinary time, and we can't look at this problem with ordinary thinking.

Although the current strength of the Japanese Combined Fleet is no longer able to compete with the current Beiyang Naval Division, the base camp has now ordered the army to be transported back to China, and although some of them have been transported back, there are still nearly 40,000 dead troops in the Far East near Vladivostok, which means that the navy must intercept the Liaodong Fleet and block the pace of advance before it can be completed and buy time for the escort fleet, and the only place can only be the Tsushima Strait.

"If I order the Army to go home, what will I do with the Navy?" Without answering Zhong Lin's question, Liu Jun asked a rhetorical question.

Hearing this rhetorical question, Zheng Yiqian and Zhong Lin glanced at each other, and then lowered their heads and began to ponder, and after a few minutes, the two raised their heads, as if they both understood something: "I will send the navy to delay time at all costs."

Uh-huh. The two replied in unison, making it clear to Liu Jun that the Japanese army would send a combined fleet to ambush it, but now, the fleet has set off, and the information can no longer be transmitted, and the only way now is to hope that you and can see such a point, or that Lin Tai, the commander of the Second Fleet who was the first to enter the Tsushima Strait, can see this problem, or be able to make preparations.

The three of them knew that there was no way but to be silent in the office for a while, Zhong Lin remembered something, stepped forward and pointed at Shuangchengzi: "Head, do you want Zhang Zuolin to advance in Vladivostok and support it." ”

Support fart, these two divisions are transferred to Shikoku, which is Germany's territory in the future, and I can't fight hard for the Germans. Liu Jun, who heard this, was very angry, Zhong Lin, this is the life of the Liaodong soldier who is clearing the obstacles for the Germans.

"You are stupid, the intercepted telegram shows that the strength of these two divisions is going to Shikoku Island, which is the territory of the Germans, why should we help, be calm, you must be calm."

"So you're hoping for the Combined Fleet to intercept it." Zheng Yiqian on the side stepped forward and asked tentatively.

"Let's eat." Liu Jun is not easy to answer this question, and he turns around and leaves without looking back, this kind of despicable method, just know it, there is no need to say it.

In the telegram he sent to Lin Taizeng, he had already frankly told him that if he encountered the Japanese escort fleet, he would turn a blind eye and let them go, and there was no need to pursue them, and there was no need to do such a thankless task.

In the Tsushima Strait, the sky is blue, and the huge Second Fleet is arranged in two rows, each about three hundred meters apart. At a speed of eleven knots, it is heading for the exit of the Tsushima Strait, which is not far away.

The first one? On the deck, the commander's flag and the flagship flag on the mast were being blown by the sea breeze, and on the mast lookout post, the lookout soldiers in white naval uniforms meticulously picked up binoculars and observed the surrounding situation.

Bridge deck. As the commander of the Second Fleet, Lin Taizeng and Deputy Commander Nikolai were holding on to the white railing, looking at the sea in the distance in a daze.

"In half an hour, we will be able to pass through the strait, and I really hope that the Japanese have not retreated." Lin Taizeng, who took a deep breath, said after taking a long breath.

Nikolai does not know Chinese, but there is an interpreter around him, and after listening to Lin Taizeng's statement, Nikolai deeply expressed that he agreed with this.

The withdrawal of the Japanese army from Vladivostok means a problem, and if Japan abandons Vladivostok, it proves that its fleet will be able to return to Vladivostok and become the hegemon of the Far East again. No, the second in the Far East, after all, there is now a Liaodong Navy that is several times stronger than its own fleet, it can be said that in addition to the Liaodong Navy, the navy of your own country can be like a crab in this area, walking sideways, not to mention how awesome.

"The commander is right, I sincerely hope that Japan has not yet withdrawn, so that we can wipe out all the Japanese troops in Vladivostok and make Vladivostok their grave."

Phew, see Nikolai's smiling waistcoat-like face. Lin Taizeng felt abnormal disgust and disgust in his heart, and although he was very dissatisfied in his heart, he still nodded happily.

Bullshit, the order given to me by the marshal is to turn a blind eye to the escort army of Japan, and the reason why I said that just now is just to fool you.
