Since Russia forced the Qing to sign the humiliating "Treaty of Aihui" and the "Treaty of Beijing," Russia has completely occupied more than 1.5 million square kilometers of land in China, and the names Vladivostok, Hailanpao, and Boli have disappeared forever and can only appear in parentheses after the official Russian name.

Russia has established the "Far Eastern Military District of the Russian Empire" on this 1.5 million kilometers of land, and the headquarters is set up in Blagoveshchensk, which is the "Hailan Pao" in China, where the Hailan Pao tragedy occurred in the era of Lin Fei, in that massacre, the Russian army killed more than 5,000 innocent Qing people, and the killing methods were extremely cruel, stabbing, burning, flooding...... Make somebody's blood boil.

After the conclusion of the alliance between Japan and Russia, Russia occupied the territory of the Qing State in the eastern part of the Songhua River, and placed the military headquarters and ruling center in Sanxingcheng.

The city with three surnames is Yilan in the era of Lin Fei, the city was set up in the early Qing Dynasty, as an important military town, and the city with three surnames is more than 300 kilometers away from Jilin, in the east of Jilin.

After the Huaxia Army occupied Jilin, the Russian Far Eastern Military District established a front-line command and stationed it in Shulan County, the closest to Jilin, and General Romanevsky, commander-in-chief of the Russian Far Eastern Military District, personally served as the front-line commander-in-chief.

The Russian army has concentrated 300,000 troops along the Songhua River, which is almost half of the garrisons in Blagoveshchensk and Vladivostok.

Romanevsky advocated attacking the Huaxia Army as quickly as possible and expelling it from Jilin, but Tsar Nicholas II wanted to send an envoy to negotiate with Lin Fei, trying to occupy the existing area of the Russian army by means of negotiation.

When the Russian envoy arrived at Dayu City, it was just when Lin Fei launched a full-scale attack on the Qing State, and Lin Fei put all his energy on dividing the relationship between the Qing court's high-level and Yuan Shikai, attacking Sichuan, and negotiating surrender with the Qing court.

When the Russian envoy came to see Lin Fei, Lin Fei felt that this was a good opportunity to hold back the Russians, so he squeezed out time to negotiate with the Russian envoy, and his attitude was extremely soft during the negotiations, giving the Russian envoy an illusion that Lin Fei wanted to make peace with Russia.

Lin Fei also instructed his agents to convey the information that Lin Fei wanted to ask for peace to the Russian intelligence officers, so that the Russians could further believe in Lin Fei's tricks.

Russian Tsar Nicholas II was also lucky, he knew that the Chinese army was difficult to fight, so he didn't want to fight with the Chinese army, he knew that in a fierce battle with the Chinese army, Russia would definitely lose its troops and lose its generals, and it would not be able to get any cheap, so that it would inevitably be affected when competing with Britain and Germany for Europe and the Middle East.

Nicholas II also believed that Lin Fei had consumed a lot of resources in the war with Japan and the Qing court, and now Lin Fei had no ability and energy to fight with Russia, so Lin Fei was bound to have the idea of peace.

Out of these considerations, Nicholas II did not want to start a war with Lin Fei, but Romanevsky saw very clearly that Lin Fei was racing against time to repair the Fengji Railway, and to form and train the Songhua River Fleet in a race against time.

All of this is telling Romanevsky that Lin Fei does not want to negotiate peace with Russia at all, and that Russia wants to peacefully take the Northeast from Lin Fei, which is simply a dream.

Romanevsky hurriedly sent a telegram to Nicholas II, asking Nicholas II to allow him to immediately send troops to attack the Huaxia Army, but Nicholas II has been holding a fluke mentality, so it has been delayed until October, and then it has been delayed for a while, and it will be November, and in mid-November, the Jilin section of the Songhua River will begin to freeze, and once it is frozen, it will be much easier for the artillery and chariots of the Huaxia Army to cross the river.

Romanevsky finally couldn't wait, and wrote a long letter of several thousand words to Nicholas II, lamenting the importance of an immediate march, and Nicholas II also felt that the peace talks were hopeless, so he instructed Romanevsky to attack immediately.

Therefore, on 20 October, the Russian river fleet preemptively launched an attack on the river fleet of the Huaxia Army.

The reason why Romanevsky wanted the river fleet to attack first was because Romanevsky had a deep understanding of the strength of the river fleets on both sides, and in terms of numbers, the Huaxia Army had 80 river gunboats at this time, and the Russian army had about 100 river gunboats, and the Russian army had an advantage.

In terms of armament, the armament of the inland river gunboats on both sides is almost the same, although the inland river gunboats are said to be "gunboats", but they are not equipped with artillery, because the Songhua River is not the sea, the gunboats cannot be built too big, and the displacement is almost one or two hundred tons, and it is not a wise choice to equip artillery on such a small ship.

The small boat is unable to carry the cannon, because the recoil when firing and the reaction moment when the gun body rotates have to act on the hull, and when the hull is too small, the recoil of the gun and the rotation moment of the gun hull will make the hull lose stability.

The weapons on the Russian army's river gunboats are two Makqin heavy machine guns, while the weapons on the Huaxia Army's river gunboats are a Grimm fast gun, and the strength on both sides is about the same.

Judging from the quality of personnel, the members of the Russian army's inland river fleet are all transferred from the Heilongjiang Fleet and the Ussuri River Fleet, and they have rich combat experience and have fought many battles with the Japanese army.

The Russian army's river gunboats and the Huaxia Army's river gunboats have similar weapons and equipment, and they have a considerable advantage in the quality of personnel, as well as a numerical advantage, so Romanevsky believes that the Russian army has a great chance of winning in this battle.

At the pre-war mobilization meeting, Romanevsky even raised his arms and shouted: "Soldiers of His Majesty the Tsar, in this battle, we have the advantage in all aspects, and the time has come to defeat the Chinese yellow-skinned monkey and establish meritorious deeds, go on the march, warriors." ”

The river gunboats on both sides were about the same size, and each of them could only carry 10 people, and the Russian army's river gunboats had nothing but machine gunners, ammunition men, helmsmen, and stokers, while on the river gunboats on the Huaxia Army's side, there were rocket launch groups.

The Russian army's river gunboats lined up, with an interval of 50 meters between each two, and sailed to the station of the river gunboats of the Huaxia Army, and the river gunboats of the Huaxia Army immediately dispatched, also lined up, and sailed towards the river gunboats of the Russian army.

Because the river is not as wide as the sea, so there is only one way to play after the two sides meet, that is, to fight firepower, whoever presses the opponent down, who wins, because of this, so the crew of the Russian river gunboat has full confidence to defeat the Huaxia Army, shooting on the river, because the hull has ups and downs, so the shooter needs to adjust the aiming point when shooting, this all depends on experience.

At a distance of more than 600 meters, the Russian inland river gunboats fired first, and the bullets rained down on the inland river gunboats of the Huaxia Army.

The distance between the two sides was shortened to 300 meters, and the bullets of the Russian inland river gunboats began to penetrate the steel guard plates of the inland river gunboats of the Huaxia Army.

The inland river gunboats of the Huaxia Army began to fire back, but the Russian army's inland river gunboats also had guard plates, which were also made of steel, and the experienced Russian army also installed wooden guard plates before and after the guard plates, and there were soaked quilts outside the wood guard plates, and the shells of the river gunboats of the Chinese Army seemed to have no effect, and the Russian army had an advantage for a while.

The Russian sailors took out bottles of liquor, the Russians are not happy without alcohol, and even more so when they are fighting, when people are half drunk, they are the most courageous, and the old Chinese saying "wine strengthens people's courage", which is the truth.

The Russian sailors poured bottles of wine as fierce as knives into their stomachs, and the entire throat to the stomach was like a flame, and the Russian sailors screamed wildly, and the bullets hit more violently.

Under such a blow, the inland river gunboats of the Huaxia Army fell into the water and killed more sailors, and five river gunboats were even forced to stop on the water, this decisive battle of the river fleet, the initial Huaxia Army suffered heavy casualties, which also made Lin Fei determined to come up with a type of inland river gunboats specially used in the inland rivers, which later shined in the battles of the Heilongjiang and Ussuri rivers.

The distance between the two sides has been shortened to 200 meters, and the defeat of the Huaxia Army seems to be assured, and at this moment, the rocket launcher launch group on the inland river gunboat of the Huaxia Army braved the rain of bullets of the Russian army and launched rockets.

The Russian army is dreaming of a big victory over the Chinese army, and one by one the sky-shattering arrow rockets flew in front of them, because the launch distance was only 200 meters, so the rockets were very accurate, and almost all of them hit the Russian inland river gunboats, and the explosions occurred suddenly, and a ball of fire shrouded the Russian army inland river gunboats, and the Russian army behind the guard plate was blown apart.

The Russian army's guard plate can't stop the rockets of the Chinese army at all, usually as soon as the rocket hits the guard plate, the guard plate is blown up in its entirety, and those steel guard plates fly up and hit the Russian sailors like knives, and some Russian sailors are directly beaten in two, and their intestines or something flow out.

Once the Russian river gunboats lose the protection of the guards, the remaining Russian sailors are named by the Green Express Artillery, and the situation on the battlefield has a tendency to reverse for a while.

Under this trend, the commander of the Russian army issued an order that can be called a "pit daddy", which has been scolded by later Russian historians for thousands of years.
