Commander Makarov then ordered the Pacific Fleet to stop speeding up and sent small boats to the waters where the debris floated to look for evidence that the monster-class submarine had been sunk.

The Petropaplovsk-class battleship Celstopol sent small boats to the waters full of debris.

Commander Makarov's face was full of excitement, looking forward to the great glory of sinking the monster-class submarine, but the chief of staff next to Commander Makarov was full of seriousness, holding a telescope in his hand, looked at it carefully for a while, and turned to Commander Makarov and said: "Your Excellency Commander, I see that there is no corpse in the floating thing, and the monster-class submarine may not have been sunk." ”

Commander Makarov said nonchalantly: "You don't understand the submarine, it is different from a surface warship, there are many reasons why a submarine can be sunk, and these reasons do not necessarily make the body come out of the submarine." ”

"But Your Excellency, I suspect we were deceived by that monster-class submarine."

"Hey, don't say any more, this monster-class submarine was sunk by us!" Commander Makarov was a man of great joy, and he was greatly displeased to hear the chief of staff say this, his brow was already furrowed, and his face was gloomy and frightening.

The chief of staff sighed softly and stopped talking, and the dinghy gradually approached the debris-filled waters and began to pick up debris.

The things on the warship will generally have a mark, indicating which warship such a thing belongs to, and determining whether the enemy ship has been sunk, these things are the key evidence.

The dinghy picked up some things and found that they all said "Demon Beast-class submarine formation of the Chinese Imperial Navy", so he sent a signal to the Serstopol, and Commander Makarov was even happier, it seems that we really sank a monster-class submarine, and now we can return to Arthur with pride.

At this moment, suddenly the sailors on the starboard side of the Celstopol suddenly shouted: "Torpedoes, there are torpedoes, there are torpedoes on the starboard side!" ”

Everyone was nervous, it was self-evident what a torpedo could mean, whether it was a swordfish torpedo or a tiger shark torpedo, the Chinese Empire was extremely powerful, and the warships of the Russian Pacific Fleet were all "small battleships" with a displacement of about 10,000 tons (compared with the dreadnoughts of Britain and Germany), and they could not carry a torpedo at all.

Everyone on the deck ran to starboard and looked out to sea, only to see a thin white line rushing towards the Serstopol on the blue sea, which could not have been anything other than torpedoes.

The captain of the Serstopol hurriedly shouted at the top of his throat: "Turn, quick, turn, dodge that torpedo." ”

The Serstopol immediately turned in a hurry in the water, like a clumsy beast, and at this moment, Commander Makarov's heart was full of horror, that monster-class submarine, is it really deceiving us?

The Celstopol was completely panicked, and some gunners rushed to the gun position and fired shells at the torpedo's position, but the torpedo was too fast for the shells to hit accurately.

Seeing that the torpedo was getting closer and closer to the Celstopol, the sailors on the Celstopol let out a howl of despair, and in a fit of desperation, the torpedo collided with the Celstopol.

The Russian sailors had long heard of the scene of the Chinese Empire's torpedoes hitting the battleship, but unfortunately those were only heard, and today they were finally able to see it with their own eyes, the entire Celstopol shook violently, and all the glass products were shattered, followed by an explosion that broke the eardrums, and the Russian sailors near the explosion point all flew up and hit their heads on the wall of the cabin.

The bombing point was located at the stern of the Serstopol, and Commander Makarov in the bow of the ship was also affected, and the shock wave directly knocked Commander Makarov to the ground, and his head hit the guardrail of the command tower hard, and blood flowed.

The Celstopol was hit by a torpedo, and the hull immediately had a tail roll, and the tail sank downward, sinking extremely fast, and there was no possibility of saving, and the captain could only order the ship to be abandoned.

Commander Makarov got into the lifeboat under the protection of everyone and sailed towards the last remaining Petropaplovsk-class battleship, the Rostislav, and the other Russian sailors had no such luck, they could only pounce in the water and wait for the rescue of other warships.

When Commander Makarov sailed to Rostislav, two cruisers were torpedoed one after another and sank into the sea, so the first thing Commander Makarov did when he arrived on the Rostislav was to order the Pacific Fleet to immediately sail at full speed to Port Arthur.

The Pacific Fleet sailed to Port Arthur in embarrassment, and Commander Makarov didn't know at this time that the monster-class submarine that looked like it had been sunk by the Russian army was actually not sunk, of course, the monster-class submarine was not deliberately floating on the water to lure the enemy, the monster-class submarine was floating on the water, purely charging the battery with a diesel engine, and it was charging, and the Pacific Fleet came over.

Originally, according to the combat procedures of the monster-class submarine, it was absolutely impossible to contact the enemy ship in the surface state, but the battery was being charged, and the monster-class submarine could not dive immediately, so it was delayed for a period of time after discovering the Pacific Fleet, and then it was bumped into by the Pacific Fleet.

The Pacific Fleet discovered the monster-class submarine, and the monster-class submarine immediately dived, and then the Pacific Fleet fired a cannonball, at which time the monster-class submarine used a trick to deceive the enemy - to release the debris from the rescue compartment, so that the surface ships thought that the monster-class submarine had been sunk.

The monster-class submarine was supposed to escape with the help of this trick, but from the improvised hydrophone, it was found that the warships of the Pacific Fleet turned their bows and sailed back, and immediately moved to sink it, so they floated to periscope depth and sank the Celstopol and two cruisers.

After sinking the Celstopol and two cruisers, this monster-class submarine immediately sent a message to the other monster-class submarines, Lin Fei sent a total of four monster-class submarines to cruise around Port Arthur, and now when he saw the Pacific Fleet coming to the door, he immediately rushed to the sea area where the Pacific Fleet was about to pass, preparing to launch an ambush.

Two hours later, the Pacific Fleet was ambushed by the Monster-class submarines again, this time with the other three Monster-class submarines involved.

Neither Petropaplovsk-class battleships nor Alexander II-class battleships, nor cruisers, nor cruisers have radio detection equipment, and Russian sailors do not know how to find the towed antenna of the Monster-class submarine from the sea, so the Monster-class submarine can communicate at will and assign targets.

The monster-class submarine fired one torpedo after another, and the Petropaplovsk-class battleship Rostislav, the battleship of Commander Makarov's ship, was hit by three torpedoes and sank into the sea with a deafening explosion.

Commander Makarov was even more miserable, a torpedo happened to explode in the hull position below the command tower, and the violent explosion directly lifted Commander Makarov into the air, flew out of the command tower, and fell heavily on the deck, breaking four ribs on the spot, and all the heart, liver and other organs were broken, plus the shock wave had injured the internal organs, Commander Makarov's internal organs quickly failed, and he died after lying on the deck for less than a minute.

The Russian sailors on the side couldn't care about Commander Makarov at all, because they were all scrambling for the opportunity to get on the lifeboat, and the panicked Russian sailors even trampled on Commander Makarov's body.

The Rostislav did not last long before it sank, and Commander Makarov sank into the sea with the battleship, leaving no bones left.

The remaining two Alexander II-class battleships and two cruisers were torpedoed one after another and sank to the bottom of the sea, and in this way, the Pacific Fleet was completely annihilated under the vicious blow of the monster-class submarines, and five battleships and five cruisers, in the face of the Huaxia Navy, did not even fire a single shot, and completely sank into the sea.

The commander-in-chief of the Pacific Fleet, Admiral Makarov, was also killed in the naval battle, and none of his bodies were found, and only more than 100 sailors of the entire fleet survived.

This news shocked the whole world, and the shock was no less than that of the First World War in the South Seas, when the combined Anglo-French fleet was defeated by Lin Fei's submarines.

This news made the Russian Tsar Nicholas II begin to reconsider the strategy of attacking China, he originally thought that it was a good choice to advance by sea and land, but the total annihilation of the Pacific Fleet made him understand that only by sending land forces to attack China could there be hope of victory.

This news frightened the fleets of Britain and Germany, who were already full of fear of the Huaxia submarines, and when they heard that the Russian Pacific Fleet had been completely annihilated by the attack of the Huaxia submarines, they hid in India and did not dare to come out.

Japan was frightened by this news, since the Russian Pacific Fleet was completely annihilated, then Port Arthur would not be guarded by navy, and the next step of the Huaxia Army would definitely be to attack Arthur by land and sea.

Japan did not guess wrong, Lin Fei's next target was Lushun Fortress.

During the First Sino-Japanese War, the Japanese conquered the fortress of Arthur basically without bloodshed, and the advanced large-caliber coastal defense artillery purchased by the Qing court from Britain and Germany at great expense fell into the hands of the Japanese, so the Japanese kept these coastal defense guns for their own use.

In addition to the shore defense artillery, the Japanese also re-strengthened the fortifications of the Lushun Fortress, which the Japanese Emperor Meiji often boasted that the Lushun Fortress was the "Gibraltar of the Far East" and the "fortress that will never fall" of the Great Japanese Empire in the northeast of the Qing Dynasty, and that "even if the land of the empire is lost, as long as Lushun is there, we can regain all the lost land." ”

Since the Japanese attach so much importance to the Lushun Fortress, then Lin Fei's attack on this place is not only as simple as military significance, but also has huge political significance, and the contest of the Lushun Fortress will likely rise to the level of the national spiritual contest between the Chinese nation and the Yamato nation, and no one can afford to lose, no one can afford to lose.
