When Lin Yuan looked closely, he realized that they had built a bunker on the mountain, and the outside of the bunker was cleverly decorated with dead branches and tarpaulin, and it was impossible to see it if he didn't look carefully.

Yao Feng came out of the bunker at this time, and when he saw Lin Yuan, he smiled and said, "You came just in time, come and see our bunker." Lin Yuan walked into the bunker and saw three artillery pieces placed in the bunker in an orderly manner, but he didn't see the radar.

Lin Yuan asked, "What about the radar?" ”

Yao Feng said: "The radar is in another bunker. ”

Lin Yuan sighed: "Your camouflage skills are very good, you can't find them if you don't look carefully." ”

Yao Feng said with a smile: "This is the result of repeated ground and air confrontation exercises, when we were in the artillery unit, camouflage was a compulsory course, at that time we often engaged in confrontation training with the helicopter unit of the army aviation, we practiced camouflage, and they practiced searching." ”

Lin Yuan looked at the camouflage position and thought to himself: "With such a camouflage, the Russians on the river will definitely not be able to see through it, so I don't have to worry about it." ”

At this moment, Zhou Kui ran up and said, "Lin Shuai, General Luo asked you to go over, and the Japanese and Russian fleets have been found on the sea!" ”

Lin Yuan then said to Yao Feng: "Inform Ma Lao and let their radar prepare to turn on!" ”

After Lin Yuan finished explaining, he followed Zhou Kui and came to the headquarters together, the headquarters is at the highest point of the battery group, with an excellent view, there is a monocular in the headquarters, a soldier is watching there, there are several telephones on the table of the headquarters, and the telephone lines are messily extended.

As soon as Lin Yuan entered the headquarters, he was pulled to the observation port by Luo Rongguang and said: "According to the report of the sentry ship on the sea, the Japanese and Russian fleets were found fifteen nautical miles outside the mouth of the river. ”

Lin Yuan nodded and asked, "What's the other situation?" ”

Luo Rongguang said: "These warships don't mean to come inside, but they are patrolling outside, I don't know what they want to do? ”

At this moment, a staff officer said, "Lord Commander, there is a message from the estuary reconnaissance post. ”

Luo Rongguang picked up the phone, and the soldiers inside said: "Lord Luo, fifteen British boats suddenly appeared on the river, and they had to enter the estuary. ”

Luo Rongguang asked, "What are they doing?" ”

The soldier replied, "They said they were doing business, but they wouldn't let us board the ship for inspection." ”

Luo Rongguang said: "Didn't you tell them that there were mines in the river? ”

The soldier replied, "I've said it a hundred times, but they just won't listen!" ”

Lin Yuan waved his hand at Luo Rongguang and said, "Let's go take a look." ”

Lin Yuan led Luo Rongguang out of the command headquarters, rode a fast horse, and came to the river, a fast boat had already been prepared by the river, Lin Yuan and Luo Rongguang got on the fast boat and came to the British fleet.

Luo Rongguang saw the British flag flying on the ship, so he said to Lin Yuan: "They must be the ship of the British." Luo Rongguang stood at the bow of the boat and shouted at the people on the opposite boat: "Mines have been laid in the river in front, and it will be dangerous for you to go in!" ”

Who knew that the British businessman on the other side of the road waved his hand again and again, and said: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, we will be careful, we will be responsible for what happens." ”

As the British fleet spoke, it rushed past the inspection ships of the defenders at full speed and headed inside, the inspection ships of the defenders were all small boats, using old steam engines, how could they catch up with the British merchant ships. When Luo Rongguang saw it, he hurriedly shouted angrily: "If you break in, we will open fire!" ”

But the sound of the ship was very loud, and the people on the boat didn't hear Luo Rongguang's words at all, Luo Rongguang frowned, and said to Lin Yuan: "Lin Shuai, this group of British people is looking for death, if they really hit a mine, the British will come to find trouble again." ”

What Luo Rongguang didn't expect was that Lin Yuan actually smiled and said, "Do you really believe that they are British?" Luo Rongguang said: "The ship is flying the British flag, and the people on the ship are speaking English, can they be from other countries?" ”

Lin Yuan smiled: "If I guessed correctly, they are Russians!" ”

Luo Rongguang asked in surprise, "What?" Russian? ”

Lin Yuan nodded and said: "That's right, it's the Russians, this is their trick to hide from the world, didn't I ask Zuo Yiming to make a fake mine laying map?" This fake picture has been obtained by the Japanese spies, and they handed over this information to the Russian fleet, so the Russians came up with such a method, that is, to pretend to be a British fleet, send soldiers to land behind us, and flank us in front and rear! ”

Luo Rongguang asked, "Lin Shuai, how can you be sure that they are Russians?" ”

Lin Yuan said, "Don't you remember? I asked you to set the depth of the mines at five meters, and I thought that the Russian troops would come to land, so I learned about the small steamboats that they might use for landing, and as soon as I saw these ships today, I immediately recognized them. Luo Rongguang was dumbfounded when he heard this, and Lin Yuan said with a smile: "These fifteen search boats are not big, one mine is enough to kill them, let's go back to the top of the mountain and watch the excitement." ”

Lin Yuan guessed correctly, these fifteen ships with British flags were indeed loaded with marines sent by Russia, they were a battalion, with a strength of 1,500 people, and the person who spoke to Luo Rongguang was the commander of the Marine Battalion, Gennady Lukin.

Before the attack, Lukin had heard the story that the army in the northeast was defeated by Lin Yuan's troops, and these stories made him laugh, and he thought to himself: These army forces can't even beat the Chinese, it's really useless, it's not a pity to die! This method of using the mine distribution map to sneak attack behind enemy lines was also the first thing he proposed to Fleet Commander Makarov.

Makarov immediately adopted it, so through diplomatic means, let the Japanese spies try their best to get the layout of the mines!

Lukin happily led his men to the landing site, fifteen small troop carriers, each loaded with a hundred heavily armed soldiers, Lukin knew that there was no infantry defense in the rear and flanks of the Dagukou fort on the road, so he was full of confidence in this operation, and he had already begun to look forward to the scene after the fort was captured.

On each ship, the navigator is an experienced veteran, who keeps a close eye on the terrain near the mouth of Dagu to determine the location of the mines, and determining the position of the ship according to the terrain on land is a compulsory course for every seaman, and these veterans who are responsible for avoiding mines have been doing this business for more than ten years, so Lukin is very confident that his fleet will bypass the minefields.

When Lukin was triumphant, he only heard a "boom" from the front, and Lukin's first reaction was: The Chinese opened fire, but Lukin wondered in his heart, aren't the Chinese the most afraid of foreigners? How dare you fire at a foreigner's ship? So Lukin ordered the ships to speed up.

Just in front of Lukin's boat, a mine was quietly staying in the water, the heavy mine anchor sat firmly at the bottom of the river, and the thunder rope that could change the length pulled the mine to prevent it from being swept away by the flowing water, this mine was like a trap of death, waiting for the arrival of its prey.

Lukin on the ship was completely unaware of the danger underwater, he thought with all his mind that the explosion was the sound of the Chinese's cannons, and did not expect that there would be danger underwater, and soon, the bow of the ship hit a mine, and the two-hundred-kilogram mine was like an elephant stepping on an ant on the road for a troop carrier of nearly a thousand tons, so no one was aware of the existence of mines.
