470 The Beijing ship set sail
Lin Xuezhi looked at Chen Fei's eager eyes, finally nodded, and said, "Okay, I'll just go, I'll go back and prepare, after I get the plan, how should I pass it on to you?" ”
Chen Fei said: "This is easy, the Russian army sometimes goes ashore, you just follow them ashore, we will send someone to meet you at that time, and you will follow our people back." ”
Lin Xuezhi turned around and walked to the door, but Lin Yuan suddenly said: "Xuezhi, you come to me again in a while, and bring the list of going to Shandong to buy coal that Sakurai Ruomi said last time." ”
Lin Xuezhi didn't speak, and said "oh" and went out, Chen Fei smiled and said, "Then I'll go back and prepare." Soon Lin Xuezhi came back, she put the thick stack of materials in her hand on Lin Yuan's table, Lin Yuan smiled: "You don't have to go, I have already thought of how to find the supply location." ”
When Lin Xuezhi heard this, she asked in surprise, "Is it true?" ”
Lin Yuan smiled and nodded, and said, "Of course it's true!" ”
Lin Xuezhi looked at Lin Yuan, hesitated for a long time, and finally said, "Thank you, thank you." ”
Lin Yuan smiled: "I can see that you don't want to go, although I don't know why you don't want to go, but I know that you must have your own reasons, so I'll find another way to replace it." ”
Lin Xuezhi's eyes suddenly turned red, tears swirled in them, and she said softly: "If the person who makes the decision is Toushanman, I am reluctant and he will let me go." ”
Lin Yuan smiled: "What are you doing with that brute?" Can I be the same as him? ”
Lin Xuezhi's face suddenly turned crimson, and said: "The reason why I don't want to go is because if I get on the Russian ship, they will definitely hand me over to the intelligence department, there are several officials in the intelligence department, they have been to Beijing, and Toushanman is responsible for the reception, and Toushanman also asked me to accompany them, so they all know my identity, and they will definitely ......."
When Lin Xuezhi said this, she couldn't say it shyly, she looked at Lin Yuan and said, "I don't want to do that kind of thing anymore." Lin Yuanha smiled and said, "With us, no one will force you to do things you don't like, I'm going to start working, you can go back." ”
Lin Xuezhi looked at Lin Yuan quietly, opened her mouth to say something, but didn't say anything, turned around and walked out.
Lin Yuan spread out the information, the information in it is very neat and miscellaneous, not only the type and time of coal purchase, but also the merchants who supply the coal, the mode of transportation, etc., and even include the personal information and family situation of the supplier, and there is even a page of the coal performance analysis done by Toushan Man, which records the calorific value of coal, the ash produced during combustion and other information in detail.
Seeing this analysis data, Lin Yuan thought to himself: "I can't see such a nuanced analysis in the Beiyang Fleet, no wonder the Japanese can become a world leader overnight, or they can rise in a short time after defeat." ”
Lin Yuan knew that after the Russian fleet bypassed the Tsushima Strait, there would only be one chance to replenish, so they would definitely set up this location carefully, and what would they set up this location on? Quite simply, that is, according to the coal consumption of their warships.
Lin Yuan added up those data, and then calculated their coal consumption according to the whereabouts and location of the Japanese and Russian fleets, and then calculated the distance of their routes, combined with the amount of coal carried by their warships, and finally determined that their supply location would be between 37 and 38 degrees north latitude and 133 and 134 degrees east longitude.
The next day, he handed over the follow-up work in Beijing to Zhang Hua and Shen Wanqing, and he and Chen Fei got up and rushed to Lushun to make peace with the Beijing ship.
Lin Yuan led everyone from Beijing, first to Tianjin, and then by water, it took less than a day to come to Lushun, Lin Yuan boarded the familiar Beijing ship, first came to see Han Mingguang, explained his plan, Han Mingguang said: "When do we plan to leave?" Some of the people on our ship have already gone ashore to help with the construction of the place, and there is no way to return all of them soon. ”
Lin Yuan said: "We don't need to bring all the people with us in this operation, let's leave all the people in the air alert department, and the people in the electronic countermeasures and underwater acoustic countermeasures parts can also stay, in this case, will our preparation time be shortened?" ”
Han Mingguang nodded and said, "That's right, so we can set off tonight." ”
Lin Yuan said: "There's no need to be in such a hurry, let's have a good rest tonight, and we'll set off tomorrow morning." ”
The next day, January 25, at eight o'clock in the morning, the Beijing ship set sail in the bright morning sunshine and headed for the designated sea area, Hai Lang pushed the battleship to shake gently, Lin Yuan stood in the command room, and first issued an order to the troops in the northeast.
Lin Yuan first ordered the 4th Division stationed in Hunchun to march near Ussuriysk and Vladivostok to feint on Vladivostok, and at the same time ordered the 2nd Brigade of the 1st Division stationed opposite Lesuzavodsk to cross the Ussuri River and attack Lesozavodsk. The military center of the Russian army in the Far East is in Blagoveshchensk, that is, China's Hailan Pao, since Boli was recovered by Lin Yuan, the telephone and telegraph contact between Vladivostok and Hailan Pao was completely broken, and Vladivostok wanted to get the command of his superiors, and had to send people on fast horses to break through the blockade line of the Chinese.
This method took a very long time, so long that by the time the order came, the battle was already over, so the commander of the defenders of Vladivostok, Lieutenant General Ino Molosov, could only choose to hold on, fortunately, Vladivostok's food reserves were enough to support more than three years, and he could only pray that the Russian army could recover Boli.
It was at this moment that he received a report: Lesozavodsk was attacked by Chinese troops! Molosov was shocked when he heard this, although Lesozavodsk is far from Vladivostok, but there is a railway connection in the middle, once Lesozavodsk is captured, the Chinese will be able to reach Ussuriysk in less than a day by train!
So Molosov ordered the troops, hold on to Lesozavodsk at any cost!
But when the order arrived, this place had already been captured, it turned out that after the end of the battle of Wandarshan, the second brigade of the first division began to prepare for the attack on Lesozavodsk, under the order of Lin Yuan, the troops carried out non-stop psychological warfare attacks on the Russian army, so in less than twenty-four hours after the battle was launched, the Russian army gave up resistance.
As soon as Lesozavodsk is lost, Ussuriysk will be left on the periphery of Vladivostok, just as Lin Yuan expected, Molosov did not expect that there would be troops attacking from the sea, because he knew that the Chinese no longer had a navy, and they dared to land and attack the enemy's military port without a navy, not suicide! So he transferred half of Vladivostok's troops to Ussuriysk, and the Japanese-Russian fleet also returned from Laizhou Bay on this day, Makarov held his breath, and in this battle, not only did he lose nearly 3,000 troops even when he saw the Chinese, but also several battleships were damaged by mysterious shells from the Chinese, and now he just wants to return to Vladivostok as soon as possible.
They then returned to the port of Incheon to replenish coal and supplies with their Japanese allies, and ordered the supply ships to set off for the supply sea first.
