On the evening of the end of the naval battle of the Ussuri Bay, the three fleets of the Northeast Navy and the airship units of the Northeast Air Force returned to Russky Island with captured French and Russian warships.

Lin Daxin, who was standing on the edge of the island, had a happy face at this time, followed by the commander of the three fleets and the temporary commander of the airship force, Zhang Guoxin. Although the Northeast Navy lost a number of warships in the naval battle, and even 2 all-steel battleships and 2 large fast armored cruisers were sunk, the captured warships were enough to make up for the losses of the Northeast Navy, and if these warships were all repaired and joined the Northeast Navy, the strength of the Northeast Navy would be further enhanced.

Sun Xitao, the commander of the First Fleet beside Lin Daxin, looked at the French Navy officers and soldiers or Russian Navy officers and soldiers on the row of captured warships under the custody of the Northeast Navy officers and soldiers, stepped off the warship they were driving, and said to Lin Daxin with a smile: "Marshal, there are only 8 all-steel battleships captured today, as well as 4 large fast armored cruisers and 3 ironclad battleships, plus the warships of the two countries that we sank, the French Navy and the Russian Navy are basically removed from the world's naval powers!" ”

Lin Daxin nodded and said with a smile: "Haha, that's true, the navies of these two countries have gone through this big war, and they don't want to slow down in three or five years!" ”

Jiang Chen, the commander of the Second Fleet, said excitedly: "What a hearty victory!" There are 19 all-steel battleships directly sunk by the 2-nation combined fleet, plus 8 captured by {us, 32 minus 19, and then minus 8, that is to say, the 2 countries together escaped 5 all-steel battleships! Moreover, even those warships of the two countries that escaped, don't think about escaping lightly, the principal has already ordered the Fourth Fleet and the Fifth Fleet to intercept the warships of the two countries that have escaped. Headmaster, isn't it time for us to attack Vladivostok next! ”

What Jiang Chen said was not wrong at all. Sure enough, 4 of the 5 all-steel battleships were captured by the Fourth and Fifth Fleets, 32 of the world's most advanced steel behemoths. In the end, only one ship escaped back to Da Nang, Vietnam.

Lin Daxin listened to Jiang Chen's words and nodded, the Franco-Russian combined fleet has been defeated, and the Russian fleet in the port of Vladivostok has also been severely damaged, it is indeed time to take Vladivostok, and the airships he bought from modern time and space are mainly prepared for those turtleshell-like mountain fortifications on the periphery of Vladivostok.

Hearing the attack on Vladivostok, Jiang Hui, the commander of the Third Fleet, frowned at this time and said: "The Russian fleet in the port of Vladivostok has been heavily damaged by the airship force, and it does not pose any threat to us. Even the Russians' mine arrays and shore defense artillery are still blocking our navy's attack on the port of Vladivostok, and it is still very troublesome for our navy to attack the port of Vladivostok. ”

Lin Daxin glanced at the direction of Vladivostok and said: "I am going to relaunch an attack on Vladivostok from the land direction, and use airships to bombard the mountain fortifications on the periphery of Vladivostok. ”

Then Lin Daxin said to Zhang Guoxin: "Let 8 airships be filled with 800 kg of bombs overnight, and bomb those turtle shells on the periphery of Vladivostok early tomorrow morning, and knock those turtle shells for me!" In addition, in order to prevent the warships in the harbor from shelling our Dingbei Army attack troops, the remnants of Russian warships in the harbor. Blow them up for me, too! ”

Zhang Guoxin's "snap-" Lizheng said: "Yes, handsome!" The airship unit is guaranteed to complete the mission! ”

Lin Daxin looked at Zhang Guoxin and nodded, and then said: "Today's table of the airship unit is very good, you Zhang Guoxin has meritorious command, so remove the temporary 2 words!" From now on, you will be the commander of the airship unit! You are also my student. Call me Principal from now on! ”

Zhang Guoxin was immediately excited when he heard this, you must know that although Lin Daxin has always been the principal of the original Sailor Academy and the current Shenyang Army Academy and Dalian Naval Academy, he has only graduated from the first and second phases of the teaching team. dared to call him the principal in front of Lin Daxin, and then senior military officers such as Zhang Zuolin and Duan Qirui, who were reused by Lin Daxin, dared to call Lin Daxin the principal in person. The other officers all called Lin Daxin a marshal. Lin Daxin asked himself to call him the principal, which is the meaning of reusing himself! Zhang Guoxin immediately shouted loudly: "Thank you for the cultivation." Students are willing to die for the sake of dedication! ”

Lin Daxin said: "There are 36 mountain fortifications on the outskirts of Vladivostok, and I don't know if the bombs hoarded on Russky Island are enough? ”

Zhang Guoxin patted his chest and said: "Don't worry, principal, a few days ago, our 8 airships have delivered more than a dozen base bombs from the Shenyang Arsenal to Russian Island, and considering that we are going to bomb the big guys of the Franco-Russian combined fleet and the mountain fortifications on the periphery of Vladivostok, most of the bombs are 800 kilograms, which should be enough to blow up the turtle shells of the Russians!" ”

When Lin Daxin heard that there were more than a dozen base bombs stored on Russky Island, he felt that it was still a little insufficient, but he thought that if he used an airship to load bombs from the Shenyang Arsenal to Vladivostok, he could go back and forth a day, and if the bombs were not enough, he could let the airship go directly back to Shenyang to load bombs and then bomb the mountain fortifications on the periphery of Vladivostok.

That night, Lin Daxin used the radio to contact Wang Hongjun, commander of the Second Division, the temporary commander of the six divisions of the Dingbei Army encircling Vladivostok, and informed him of the great victory of the naval fleet and the airship unit today, and that the airship unit would bomb the mountain fortifications around Vladivostok early tomorrow morning, so that several divisions of the Dingbei Army would be ready to take down the mountain fortifications on the periphery of Vladivostok with the cooperation of the airships.

After receiving the telegram, Wang Hongjun immediately sent people to find the division headquarters of the Second Division with the commanders of several other divisions, and after a while, Chen Ergou, the commander of the Guards Division, Jiang Yu, the commander of the Fourth Division, Duan Qirui, the commander of the 11th Division, Lu Liang, the commander of the 24th Division, and Zou Ye, the commander of the 25th Division, all came to the headquarters of the Second Division.

Lu Liang, the commander of the 24th Division, and Zou Ye, the commander of the 25th Division, both came from the second phase of the teaching team, and in the process of expanding the garrison brigade into a B division, they became the commander of the B division.

Wang Hongjun said excitedly to several division commanders: "Everyone, I have good news for everyone, the navy has been cooperated with airships. Defeated the combined Franco-Russian fleet and annihilated most of it. And the Russian fleet in the port of Vladivostok was also bombed by airships and was heavily damaged, and since then. In this war with the Russians, sea supremacy is completely in our hands! Moreover, the headmaster informed that starting tomorrow, the airship troops will bombard the turtle shells in front of us, and cooperate with us to take the mountain fortifications on the outskirts of Vladivostok. ”

After Wang Hongjun finished speaking, he handed the telegram in his hand to several division commanders who were also excited.

After reading the telegram drafted by Lin Daxin himself, Chen Ergou laughed and said: "The French should regret it now, they deserve it!" Well deserved! We did not provoke them in the northeast of the French, we fought with the Russians. What's the matter with them? As a result, the French jumped out on their own, and now they are stupid, right? After this battle, they don't want to slow down for a few years, this is the rhythm of their own death! Dare to go against our principal, you can't kill them! ”

Duan Qirui, the commander of the 11th Division, then said excitedly: "The Russian Navy is also completely finished, we are equivalent to killing 2 naval powers at once, it's really enjoyable!" Even the British Navy, the most powerful navy in the world, don't imagine that it is so easy for us to pack up the French Navy and the Russian Navy together! ”

Jiang Yu, the commander of the Fourth Division, said with a smile: "The main thing is that we have the killer feature that the principal has come up with. Eight behemoth-like airships, I heard that the two largest are more than 300 meters long, and tomorrow we will be able to see these eight airships with our own eyes. Now let's study how to attack those mountain fortifications on the outskirts of Vladivostok tomorrow! ”

Wang Hongjun said: "There are 36 mountain fortifications on the outskirts of Vladivostok, and there are only eight airships in the airship unit. The headmaster's telegram said that a part of the airship would also be separated. The bombing of the Russian fleet in the port of Vladivostok was carried out, and in this way the airships of the mountain fortifications were bombed. There can only be one mountain fortification and one mountain fortification, let's discuss how we can attack in the face of such a situation! ”

In the end, the few people discussed that after each mountain fortification on the periphery of Vladivostok was bombed by the airship, a small number of troops would be sent to capture the bombed mountain fortifications, and then decide how many follow-up troops to invest according to the actual situation of the battlefield.

After the remnants of the Russian Navy's First Pacific Fleet returned to the port of Vladivostok, Commander Makarov looked at the fleet that had lost almost half of its main warships, and wanted to cry without tears, it was really miserable, in less than 20 minutes, the powerful First Pacific Fleet lost half of its main warships, and most of the remaining main warships were also injured, and several warships were still smoking from them.

Makarov came to the Governor's Palace in Vladivostok in despair, and when he saw Governor Alekseev, who had already received the news, he said with a wry smile: "Governor, it's really unexpected, Lin Daxin actually has a very advanced airship, this kind of airship is very large, can carry huge bombs, and the speed is also very fast, our First Pacific Fleet was bombed badly!" And our fleet from Europe and the French fleet may not have been spared, and we lost the naval battle! ”

Alekseev's face was gloomy at this time, he didn't speak for a long time, and Makarov was even more uneasy, Governor Alekseev wouldn't want to deal with himself, right? In any case, for whatever reason, as the commander of the First Russian Pacific Fleet, he went out with the main forces of the entire fleet, and before he could get out of the mine array, he lost half of the main warships, and the wolf bèi fled back to the port of Vladivostok, and if Governor Alekseev wanted to dispose of himself, he would have nothing to say at all.

The nervous Makarov waited for a long time and finally waited for Governor Alekseev to speak, "Makarov, now it's time for Vladivostok to be critical, you immediately organize the naval guns on the main warship and prepare to provide artillery support to the mountain fortifications on the periphery, since Lin Daxin can bombard the warships with airships, and can also bombard the mountain fortifications on our periphery with airships, we will face a very grim situation in Vladivostok." ”

Governor Alekseev had already imagined that Lin Daxin would bomb the mountain fortifications on the outskirts of Vladivostok with airships.

Makarov let out a sigh of relief, fortunately Governor Alekseev did not hold the Pacific First Fleet responsible for almost half of the losses, "Your Excellency the Governor, if ...... If the airships continue to bombard the fleet in our harbor, we simply will not be able to resist it! ”

Governor Alekseev frowned and said: "We in Vladivostok do have balloon cannons that can shoot in the air, but there are only 6 47 mm caliber balloon guns in the whole Vladivostok, after I got the news that Lin Daxin bombed the warship with an airship, I have asked people to transform a batch of balloon cannons, oh, they can be called anti-aircraft guns in the future, and their role in the future is not only to shoot the enemy's observation balloons, but also to deal with the airship This kind of aerial weapon." In this case, first deploy 4 anti-aircraft guns to your navy, and then I will immediately send people to the warship to modify some small-caliber rapid-fire guns and increase their upward firing angle, so that the small-caliber rapid-fire guns on the warship can also have the effect of air defense.
