Geographically, Vladivostok is only 180 kilometers from Hunchun City in Jilin Province and has a natural ice-free harbor, and it is only 15 kilometers off the coast of the Sea of Japan. In the summer of 1901, the Trans-Siberian Railway from Moscow to Vladivostok had not yet been built, and the coastal defense fortress in Vladivostok had not yet been completed. The Russian army stationed 20,000 troops and Vladivostok detachment in Vladivostok, China and Russia went to war, the Russian Pacific Fleet was annihilated in the main ship in Arthur, almost all the troops were annihilated, China gained complete sea dominance, Song Xiaofei was overjoyed after hearing the news, and sent a telegram to Liu Buyun and Duan Qirui, asking the navy, land and air forces to make a comprehensive attack and take Vladivostok within half a month!

Vladivostok may be just an unfamiliar geographical term for most Chinese today, but for our ancestors more than a hundred years ago, Vladivostok, like Hong Kong and Macau, is the lonely wanderer of China's mother and an eternal pain in the hearts of northeast people. In Tumen, Yanji, Hunchun, Dunhua, Changchun, Jilin City and other areas of Jilin Province, the ancestors of many families are Vladivostok people, and Jilin people can also freely enter and leave Vladivostok through the Tumen River to visit relatives and friends.

On the eve of the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the Nationalist Government strongly advocated the recovery of Vladivostok and the signing of the "Sino-Soviet Treaty of Friendship and Alliance" with the Soviet Union. Stalin immediately threatened that the Soviet Union would overthrow the Chinese government if China resolutely reclaimed its territory. Representatives of the Nationalist Government shot back that if the Soviet Union did this, China would join the Western alliance and allow the American team to enter the Sino-Soviet border. In the end, the two sides finally reached an agreement, and the Soviet Union finally agreed that China would take back the sovereignty of Dalian, Lushun, and the Manchuria Railway, and reached an agreement. The Chinese government took back Vladivostok fifty years later. According to the "Sino-Soviet Accession Treaty" of that year, fifty years later, that is, eighteen years ago, China should take back Vladivostok. But the Slavs, who were naturally greedy for land, rebelled, and China signed the Sino-Russian Treaty with the government of the Russian Federation thirteen years ago. It was confirmed that Vladivostok and other places belonged to Russia, and Vladivostok was transliterated in Russian: Vladivostok. However, the government of the Republic of China in Taiwan still calls Vladivostok. On 15 February last year, a Chinese cargo ship was sunk by a Russian ship in the waters off Vladivostok in the Far East, and seven missing Chinese crew members were missing, and life and death were at a loss.

To get back to the point, the reason why Song Xiaofei is so desperate for China to take back Vladivostok. Because it has been the territory of China since ancient times. It comes from the Manchu language, which means "a small fishing village by the sea", Vladivostok was called "Yongming City" in the Yuan Dynasty, and it was under the jurisdiction of the Bohai Kingdom in the Tang Dynasty. The Poshet Bay near Vladivostok was a foreign trade port in the northeastern border area of the Yuan Dynasty. Before 1860, it was originally under the jurisdiction of Jilin in the Qing Dynasty of China, and the recovery of Vladivostok could greatly boost the morale of the people of Northeast China to fight the Russians.

When Liu Buyun was ordered to lead the Chinese fleet to the Tumen River outside Vladivostok, the former commander of the Russian Pacific Fleet, Alexander Bush. Vissarionovic. Although Duke Stark fell into deep despair, he still led the reorganized Russian Vladivostok detachment to meet Liu Buchan.

It's a battle without suspense. The fleet led by Liu Buyun has four 13,000-ton heavy artillery ironclad ships, the "Beijing," the "Science," the "Democracy," and the "Republic," as well as 20 ocean-going ironclad ships with superior performance, such as the "Dingyuan," "Zhenyuan," and "Suzhou," as well as auxiliary torpedo ships. The total tonnage is nearly 250,000 tons, and the commanders include experienced British Navy Rear Admiral Lang Weili, Navy Deputy Chief Deng Shichang, and Vice Admiral Li Yuanhong.

The Russian Vladivostok detachment consisted only of 10 old 3,000-ton warships, a 13,000-ton flagship, the Nicholas II, and 10 auxiliary warships. This hastily cobbled together fleet, some of the ships were forced to go to sea before they were fully built, and they installed artillery as they sailed. The tactical and technical level of officers and men is low. Some even lack a minimum of training, and communication relies on German-built radio stations, which become waste when German technicians leave. Some officers and men have also been influenced by revolutionary ideas and have a spirit of resistance. Unwilling to die for the Tsar. Duke Stark knew the outcome of the battle, but for the sake of his noble honor, he chose to die rather than surrender.

On that day, a thin fog enveloped the whole of Vladivostok, and the sea was stormy, and Duke Stark, on the 13,000-ton flagship "Nicholas II", commanded the fleet to fire first, trying to break out of the encirclement of the Chinese fleet, but the Russian fleet did not succeed because of its slow speed.

Liu Buyun stood on the "Beijing" and found that there were several clusters of black smoke on the sea, knowing that the Russian fleet had appeared, so he gave full play to the advantages of the fast speed and fierce firepower of the Chinese first ship, formed a single vertical formation, occupied a favorable position in the direction of the Russian fleet's advance, and commanded the main guns of the three warships "Science", "Republic" and "Dingyuan" to aim at the "Nicholas II", concentrated firepower and fierce shelling, and in an instant, the three ironclad giant ships fired a hundred guns together, the smoke of gunpowder was filled, the sea water was boiling, and the white waves were raised, and the seagulls were frightened and flew high!

Deng Shichang rode on the "Democracy", detoured back to the flank of the "Nicholas II", clenched his fists and waved vigorously, and gave the order: "Fire!" Fire! A cannon hit the deck of the "Nicholas II", only to hear a "bang" with a loud bang, the fourth turret on the deck of the warship was shot, the flames triggered explosives, a large explosion occurred, the ship's shaft tilted, white smoke rose, and the hull began to catch fire. Duke Stark ordered the "Nicholas II" to move at full speed and crashed into the "Democracy", Deng Shichang ordered the "Democracy" to launch torpedoes, dozens of torpedoes fired in unison, the speed of the "Nicholas II" was too slow, only about 12.5 knots, and there were still two or three nautical miles away from the "Democracy", when it touched the torpedo and sank, Duke Stark died the Tsar.

The Russian fleet, having lost its command ship, was like a fly without a head, and the two sides engaged in a melee in the mist. The hundreds of large-caliber guns of the medium-sized ** ship almost synchronously let out their own roars, "booming" shells of different calibers, under the force of the firing powder pack, whistling out of the gun chamber, drawing a series of exquisite arcs in the sky, and landing on the Russian ** ship. Ten Russian ships were sunk, six were sunk, three were captured, and more than 3,000 people were killed, while the Chinese fleet damaged only two torpedo ships and wounded ten.

The port of Vladivostok, which had lost the protection of the fleet, was quickly occupied by the Chinese Army. Duan Qirui ordered Xu Shuzheng and Cai Yi's tank troops to land first, and Wang Shizhen led 20,000 new troops to attack the Russian army on Vladivostok.

At the same time, the twenty-year-old Jiang Baili stood out from the Chinese non-commissioned officer school and was appointed by Duan Qirui as the captain of a returning airship team to organize the bombing of the Russian garrison in Vladivostok. The day before the bombing of the Russian army, Jiang Baili methodically arranged for the logistics troops to do a good job of loading bombs, each of which was filled with 500-600 kg of incendiary bombs and bombs, two 7.92 light machine guns, 1,000 rounds of ammunition, and other preparations for overhauling airships.

In the early morning of the next day, 20 airships of different carrying weights and airship formations all climbed up with 20 officers and men, started their engines, warmed up, and Jiang Baili also boarded the command airship "Vostok," loosened the cables and lifted into the air, formed a long snake formation, and slowly flew to the Russian military camp in Vladivostok in the morning mist. Because the airship is guided by a precise gyroscope, there is no fear of losing course in the fog.

Although this unit had not experienced the war, this was the first time that China's "air force" had carried out a mission, so Jiang Baili and the soldiers were very excited. This bombardment was drawn up by the General Staff under the command of Duan Qirui in accordance with the climatic conditions provided by the reconnaissance units on the air and ground, the buildings where the materials were stored, and the number of troops garrisoned; it was foolproof; the northeast wind at that time helped the Chinese a lot, and 20 airships loaded with bombs flew in the air at an average speed of about 40 kilometers per hour at an altitude of about 1,500 meters.

At twelve o'clock in the afternoon, the airship unit commanded by Jiang Baili flew over Vladivostok and began a wonderful high-altitude bombing performance! At this time, the Russian troops stationed in Vladivostok were eating lunch, and most of the people of the Tsarist army stationed in the barracks were still eating in the house, or hanging around on the playground in groups of three or five to eat, and they did not expect that these airships were coming to bomb them.

Jiang Baili's airship flew over the command post of the Russian army, stabilized the flight state of the airship, let the grenadier estimate the distance, pulled the grenadier wrench, and the four bombs hanging under the airship broke away from the airship, flew horizontally forward according to inertia, plunged headlong, and penetrated through the roof, with a loud "bang", thick smoke billowed out, the house burned, and the fire soared into the sky!

Jiang Baili shouted excitedly: "It's hit!" "Brothers, start dropping bombs!"

Twenty Chinese airships began to continue to bombard the Russian ** battalion, at that time, the Russian military camp was mainly wooden barracks, which were bombed intensively, wooden beams and tiles flew wildly, pine wood burned, and many Russian troops were crushed under the collapsed wooden houses, crying out fiercely, "My God!" ”

The Russian military camp suddenly flew sand and rocks, blood and flesh were splashed everywhere, and a miserable howl sounded in the command headquarters. The Russian army, which had no time to react, was killed and wounded by the explosion, and even if it escaped from the house, it was strafed by the machine gunners on the Chinese airship. The results of this battle were incredible, and the Russian invaders were directly killed and wounded, and more than 8,000 people were killed, and some were directly blown into two by the bombs.

Under the fierce artillery fire of the Chinese navy, land and air force, the Russian army in Vladivostok completely lost its fighting spirit, and the entire battle lasted only three days, with more than 6,000 Russian casualties and 4,000 Russian invaders surrendering! The squadron took back Vladivostok! The people of Northeast China and the Chinese people raised their eyebrows, celebrated each other, and rushed to tell each other!

Song Xiaofei learned that Duan Qirui and they had recovered Vladivostok, and issued a nationwide order to reward Duan Qirui, Liu Buyun, and Jiang Baili, and telegraphed Liu Buyun to let the Chinese fleet make persistent efforts to prepare for the battle to recover Sakhalin!
