Chapter 46: The Burning Vladivostok (Part II)

The fight between the Japanese soldiers who rushed into the trenches and the Russian soldiers was very exciting, and in order not to reveal their identities so quickly, the Japanese soldiers were ordered to kill the Russian soldiers in the trenches, so even the Russian soldiers who surrendered would be slaughtered.

I saw that the Tsarist Russian soldiers surrendered if they couldn't resist, but the "Chinese soldiers" in their eyes raised their guns and shot at them who had lost their guns, and the "Chinese soldiers" also let out mocking laughter, and their eyes burst out with bloodthirsty light.

"Bastards, the surrendered soldiers are also killed, the Chinese soldiers are really crazy, they don't follow the guidelines of the battlefield, how can they slaughter the surrendered soldiers?"

"Look, it's better to fight with them than to surrender and be slaughtered, how can you mix up the title of a hero, and you can't surrender if you die!"

"Regiment commander, let's retreat, we can't hold the trenches, these Chinese soldiers are more ferocious than the Japanese soldiers we have encountered, and the strength of the bayonets is as good as the Japanese."

"Resist it all for me, Lieutenant General Schöne hasn't given the order yet, if you don't want to be slaughtered, give me a hard beating, I believe that the lieutenant general will make a decision."

Several Russian soldiers retreated to both sides of the trench while shooting the enemy with their guns, and their comrades surrendered before their eyes and were slaughtered one by one, and many of the Russian soldiers who had just lost their guns picked them up again.

Most of the trenches in Tsarist Russia were already occupied by Japanese soldiers, and more and more Japanese soldiers entered the trenches, and some even rushed through the trenches towards Vladivostok. The Japanese soldiers who were not afraid of death made the remaining Russian soldiers in the trenches very desperate, and some of the Russian soldiers retreated directly to Vladivostok regardless of the order, leaving only a small number of Russian soldiers struggling to support, and they had been waiting for the retreat order of their superiors in their hearts.

Finally, Lieutenant General Schönn gave the order to retreat, and the remaining Russian soldiers rushed to the city gate like crazy, and the Japanese soldiers behind also frantically followed, and the entire trench was occupied in a few minutes.

When the Russian soldiers retreated, all the heavy machine guns on the city wall fired at the pursuing "Huaxia soldiers", and the tongues of fire drilled their bodies under the "Huaxia soldiers" being caught off guard, and one by one the "Huaxia soldiers" fell, but the soldiers behind swarmed like locusts.

"Crazy! Utter madman! The Russian machine gunner on the ramparts muttered as he looked down at the situation below. They were very shocked when they looked at the fallen and replaced "Huaxia soldiers", they were almost frightened crazy, they had never seen such an army that was not afraid of death, but they also liked the feeling of shooting enemies madly, especially watching those enemies being killed by themselves.

After occupying the trenches, the Japanese army did not rush to send a large force to pursue the remnants of Tsarist Russia, but set up trenches, and they wanted to turn this place into the forward position of their own attack, and it was their goal to strike at Vladivostok at close range.

The rest of the Russian soldiers were lucky enough to rush back to the city, but Lieutenant General Schoen was very distressed, because now he could only hold on to the city, and the food in the city was enough for them to use for three months, and they could only hold out for three months, and if there were no reinforcements in time, they would all starve to death.

Looking at the tall and strong city wall, the Japanese soldiers were not disappointed, as long as they concentrated their fire to bombard, no matter how strong the city wall was, it would collapse, and now their task was to firmly surround the entire Vladivostok and not allow the people inside to enter or leave.

The Russian soldiers on the border of Jilin soon returned to Vladivostok and knew that it was the Chinese army that attacked from the south, but they had no choice but to watch the Chinese army encircle Vladivostok.

Lieutenant General Schöne sent a telegram to Grand Duke Nicholas and the Tsar after descending the city wall, truthfully reporting the situation in Vladivostok, and also mentioning his own speculations about the involvement of the Chinese Empire with Japan.

The "Huaxia Army" did not continue the offensive after encircling Vladivostok, and they sent Japanese officers from Huaxia Tong to persuade them to surrender, all of whom spoke Huaxia, and the Japanese spies in Nathanai also began to carry out their mission.

There were many Japanese merchants in Vladivostok, and naturally there were many spies, and when the war began, they were tasked with destroying the telegraph office and disguised as Chinese spies to wreak havoc in the city.

After the attack of the "Chinese army", the city was in chaos, and the streets were full of panicked people, especially those Russian merchants desperately hiding their money in the cellars dug in advance. As for those ordinary civilians, they can only hide at home tremblingly and dare not come out, the strength of the "Huaxia Army" can be seen from the fact that the imperial army has been pressed and beaten without victory, not to mention the cruelty of the previous bombing of the trading city, if the army of their empire does not surrender, it is indispensable to be bombed by airships.

The chaos on the street made those little gangsters and bankrupts who had nothing to do all day very excited, and they took advantage of the chaos to take advantage of the chaos, and even directly robbed the things of those Chinese merchants, in their opinion, the things of the Chinese people were not robbed for nothing.

The Tsarist Russian army, which was fighting hard against the "Chinese army", had no time to manage these at all, and the chaotic crowd was swept away by the policemen to maintain order, and some of them even joined the ranks of robbery. Most of the robbers are holding that the city is about to be broken, and they have to hurry up to grab some running money or take the opportunity to make a windfall, and who cares who robs it at this time.

There was chaos in the city, not only in the streets, but also in some residential areas, at first it was the Russians who were robbing things, and the people who were robbed also joined in, and those Japanese spies took the opportunity to wreak havoc, and they went to rob those rich Russian businessmen.

After retreating into the city, the Russian soldiers began to maintain order in groups under the orders of Lieutenant General Schöne, and all the yellow people who robbed things were shot directly, and the Russians asked them to hand over their things and let them go.

The Tsarist Russian soldiers, who had just been beaten badly on the battlefield, were angry with the yellow race at this time, whether they were Chinese or Japanese, as long as they saw them shooting directly on the street for any reason, a large number of yellow people were killed, most of whom were Japanese.

Most of the Japanese spies who were on the mission were killed, and they could not have imagined that the Russian army would be so brutal and that the mission of destruction would be a complete failure.

The Japanese ambassador to Vladivostok angrily approached Lieutenant General Schönn, who was eager to kill him immediately, and demanded a proper explanation for the shooting of their Japanese merchants by the Russian soldiers, who insisted that the Japanese merchants were the creators of chaos in the city.

When the Japanese Minister of War Yusaku Uehara received the news of the massacre of Japanese merchants in the city, he not only did not feel angry, but smiled and said, "The empire will remember these heroes, and their sacrifices will bring great benefits to the empire......"

Katsura Taro also smiled when he received it, this is the reason why they attacked Vladivostok, what a great reason, his public approval rating may increase a lot.

The "Chinese soldiers" outside the city have been persuading them to surrender, but the Russian soldiers on the city walls are unmoved, because Lieutenant General Schöne has said that the food in the city is enough for them to eat for three months, and in three months the imperial reinforcements will arrive.

"Report, our telegraph office just had a big explosion, and the telegraph machines inside were blown up!" A Russian soldier ran up to Lieutenant General Schöne in a panic and said.

"What, what's going on there at the telegraph office, how could there be an explosion? The confidential text inside ...... "Before Lieutenant General Schöne could finish speaking, another soldier ran in and interrupted him.

"Report, the telegrams of the newspaper offices in the city have been destroyed, and now only the telegraph machine in the barracks is ready to use. According to what some people witnessed, it is very likely that the Chinese spies did it, and only they have this motive. ”

After hearing this, Lieutenant General Schöne was very angry, "What did those police and the army do when such a big thing happened, they actually made people destroy the telegraph machine, if we can't receive information from the Empire, we can only wait for death." ”

"Report, just now the telegraph in the barracks was also vandalized, and it was our soldiers who appeared traitors." Another soldier ran in and said.

"Find, find me, you must find some good telegraphs, go to those places where the Chinese and Japanese live, they may have telegraphs. In addition, ask the technicians to see if there is any possibility of repairing the damaged telegraphs, and by the way, if the telegraphs are found in those yellow people, they will be killed. Lieutenant General Schöne ordered decisively.

Lieutenant General Schelln was very skeptical that these were not done by the Chinese, and according to the character of the Chinese, they would not do such a thing, but it was not ruled out that the Chinese did it, and he could only be wary of the Japanese.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

Shells were fired into the city, countless residential buildings were blown to pieces, and the raging fires continued to ignite, and the screams were very heart-wrenching.

Japanese warships outside the city and army artillery shelled the city, and shells were fired into the city without money, and a large number of Japanese soldiers began to attack the city.

Vladivostok, which had been settled, began to be chaotic again, with countless residents hiding from the shells, and a small number of people entering their cellars and not daring to come out.

"The devils, they are the devils, they are attacking indiscriminately in the city, quickly let the people go to the bomb shelter to hide from the shells, and the rest of the supplies are quickly transferred to the bomb shelters." Lieutenant General Schoen cried out in pain.

The bombardment of the "Chinese army" continued, the residential buildings in the city were blown up one after another, the fire began to spread, and a large number of Tsarist Russian soldiers became temporary firefighters to put out the fire.

Originally, Lieutenant General Schöne dug a lot of air-raid shelters in the city, which was to prevent the airship troops of the Chinese Empire, and the material was only partially transferred, after all, the Chinese army still had a period of time to arrive, who would have thought that the Chinese army would come so quickly.

After several attacks, the attacking Japanese army realized that they could not help the tall walls, and they retreated after leaving behind a pile of corpses. The Japanese army, which had failed to storm the city, launched an even more fierce artillery bombardment of the city, and the shells poured into the city like rain, and the sound of explosions continued to sound, and the city burst into flames.
