Chapter 148: An Unexpected Change (Subscription Requested)

The commander of this fleet is Vice Admiral Rozhestvensky, this guy has no experience in commanding combat fleets at all, he is just a bastard who slaps the Russian emperor on the back. And this bastard was born from below, he was originally withdrawn and capricious, and once he gained power, he had a taste of villain's ambition.

The first battle that this bastard came out to fight shocked Quan Shijie, he saw five ships on the sea, no matter which country, relying on him to be a warship, and he fired a cannon and hit it. A round of shelling sank four of the boats, and it was only after the ship sank that the lieutenant general discovered that it was a British fishing boat.

Carrying on the good Russian tradition, they said sorry to the British fishermen who had fallen into the sea, and then walked away, leaving the British who had fallen into the sea to continue to drift with the broken planks along the waves.

When did the British suffer such a loss? They immediately condemned the Russians in the international community, not only condemning them, but also sending fleets to harass the Russians, and many neutral countries, threatened and restrained by the British government, refused the request of the long-sailing Russian fleet to dock at the port to refuel.

Lao Maozi really had no choice, so he got a few coal ships to follow behind and replenish them to the Russian ships, and the difficulties of its march can be imagined.

During the eight-month long voyage, General Rozhestvensky patronized the problem of coal, and only conducted two live-fire trainings, and the gunners did not use the new sighting and side-ranging equipment, and the shooting accuracy was very low.

After the news of the fall of Lushunkou came, the morale of the officers and men of the navy suddenly fell to the bottom. Many officers believed that the battle had completely lost its meaning and advocated a return to the Baltic, while Rozhestvensky himself stubbornly obeyed the Tsar's orders to continue the eastward voyage to Vladivostok.

His idea was very simple, if he could arrive safely, even if he didn't let go of a shot after arriving, he would at least be able to save a little bit of the honor of the Russian Navy, and in that case, he would not be in vain as a commander.

And just like that, the Russian fleet was under the leadership of this bastard vice admiral. Under the slogan of honor, take a boat across the beautiful and glittering ocean and go to death.

On the Japanese side, the situation is quite the opposite. Although there was a huge gap between their navy and the Russians in terms of numbers and tonnage, when he learned that the Russian rescue fleet was on his way, Heihachiro Togo made a very clear plan of battle, believing that the Russians had come from afar. Difficulty in resupply, and the lack of a seaport to dock at, these were all advantages that he could take advantage of.

As long as the Japanese Navy and the Russian Navy enter the effective firing range of artillery fire, they will destroy their command center and consume the strength of the Russian Navy through night fighting. By concentrating the firepower of one's own fleet, making full use of one's superiority in mobility, occupying a favorable position, and exerting all one's side-firing firepower in a mobile war, it is entirely possible to completely destroy the remnants of the Russian navy in a single battle in a future naval battle, remove once and for all the threat of Tsarist Russia to the Japanese mainland in the Far East, and completely control the sea.

On the 27th of May, the Russians arrived, and the naval battle finally began.

The Russian Navy, which looked like a behemoth, was killed by the Japanese as if they were chopping melons and vegetables. The huge fleet is in addition to the warships that sank to the bottom of the sea. All of them became trophies of the Japanese. Less than three days! The Japanese had less than three days to wipe out the Russian fleet, which was even faster than the speed at which they destroyed the Beiyang naval division during the First Sino-Japanese Naval Battle. That bastard lieutenant general also made a Japanese prisoner, and I heard that the Japanese treated him quite humanely.

Lao Maozi's hope of zuihou was completely shattered, and the mood of defeat spread among the Russian troops, and Commander Kulopatkin hurriedly retracted his troops from the field to the two strong fortresses of Liaoyang and Mukden, and the rest of the place was surrendered to the imposing Japanese army. …,

And Little Japan did not storm Liaoyang again. You must know that Japan is far less powerful than it was during World War II, and this time 750,000 troops were mobilized. It's already a nationwide effort. The loss of 270,000 people was an unacceptable figure for them. If you lose more than 100,000 people, you will be able to defeat Liaoyang. They also had no way to hold it, not even the ability to defend the Japanese mainland and North Korea.

The Japanese and the Russians very tacitly chose to stop the war, and no matter how much the Western countries agitated, little Japan would not fight.

There is really not much time left for Yang Xiaolin. Both the Japanese and the Russians may be waiting for peace talks, and if they reach a cease-fire agreement, their own base areas will inevitably be under fire. He must fight out, taking advantage of the fact that it is not possible for Japan and Russia to take joint action at this time, so that one of them will completely lose the ability to attack him.

The tense atmosphere in Commander Yang's headquarters filled the room, and after a period of preparation, he had already chosen his target, that is, the Japanese army.

The reason is that the Russians have been operating here for several years, they already have a certain foundation, and in the Heilongjiang area, the Shili of the Russians is very strong.

It is very difficult to eradicate the Russians in one go. With the current strength of the Volunteers, it seems that they will not succeed at all. Moreover, there is another danger in attacking the Russians, that is, little Japan is likely to attack itself as well.

After all, this time Yang Xiaolin annoyed the Japanese emperor. In the case that the Japanese army could not fight the Russians any longer, if they fought Lao Maozi by themselves, little Japan really had the possibility of cooperating with the Russians as Naogami Matsubara said.

It's relatively easy to beat the Japanese. The Japanese have just landed, and now their foundation is unstable, and as long as they punch the right place, their hundreds of thousands of troops will immediately be in trouble. At that time, it was the Russians who might not be willing to let go of the opportunity, and it would be ideal if they could provoke another war between them.

It's also relatively safe, after all, Lao Maozi may not provoke himself now. It's just that there is a possibility, the same danger, but it is relatively rare.

Yang Xiaolin spread out the battle map on the table: "The current situation is that all the Russians have retracted to their strongholds, Kuropatkin is in Liaoyang with more than 200,000 Russian troops, and Akberil has returned to Mukden with more than 100,000 people. ”

His finger swiped on the map: "Now the Liliang of Little Japan is very scattered, they have built a pro-Japanese Liliang in the area from Dalian to Lushun, and placed a large number of barracks, I don't think I plan to leave." ”

Chen Tianhua was very angry when he heard this: "What these guys said before the war sounded good, fighting the Russians for the Manchu Qing Dynasty!" Now in such a situation, I really want to hear what Sun Wen has to say! ”

Yang Xiaolin glanced at him: "Sun Wen has already sent me a telegram, he is also very dissatisfied with the Japanese approach, and now he also believes that the Chinese want to achieve independence." Must rely on their own liliang. ”

Chen Tianhua was stunned for a moment, and then rejoiced: "Oh? Would he like to come back and work with us? ”

Yang Xiaolin shook his head: "Xingtai misunderstood, Sun Wen is unwilling to put hope on me anymore." I was about to tell you about it. Sun Wen sent a telegram saying that he wanted to form a new organization, to unite the Xingzhong Society, the Huaxing Society, and all those who were looking for a way out for China. ”

Only Sun Wen can do this. Yang Xiaolin can't do it. Sun Wen is a gentleman in the eyes of those overseas Chinese, and Yang Xiaolin, even if he is very popular now, is just a popular recklessness.

Chen Tianhua looked at Yang Xiaolin: "Commander, what do you mean?" ”…,

Yang Xiaolin smiled at him: "I promised, anyway, it's a good thing to let all liliang hug together." We should support him. ”

Yang Xiaolin's attitude made Chen Tianhua quite satisfied, Yang Xiaolin did not engage in a battle of will with Sun Wen, which was very rare in Chen Tianhua's opinion.

"At the beginning of spring next year, Sun Wen will hold a meeting in Shanghai to discuss the structure and leadership of this organization, if there is a chance at that time, I will go there, if not, Xingtai, you will work hard."

Chen Tianhua nodded: "It is incumbent." ”

Yang Xiaolin waved his hand: "Don't talk about this, what we have to think about now is how to fight the Japanese." Little Japan is now scattered because they think the war with the Russians is coming to an end. This gives us a chance. I'm going to Dalian for a long run! There was a large amount of supplies for the Japanese army hoarded there, and as long as Dalian was defeated, little Japan would definitely be in a hurry. ”

Chen Tianhua intervened in military matters, and Cai Yi said again: "This is a dangerous move, the most important thing is that our speed must be fast, and our whereabouts must be hidden!" And. After the battle of Dalian, the Japanese will definitely counterattack, and at that time it is necessary to leave a force to defend Dalian. Attract the main forces of the Japanese army, and then we sweep through the scattered units of the Japanese army. Kill all the strongholds they've built up over time! In this case, it would be better to ensure that in the coming years the Japanese will not be able to attack our bases. ”

Yang Xiaolin nodded: "Three regiments." ”

He and Cai Yi both knew in their hearts that the troops who were defending Dalian might really be defending to the death, and no reinforcements would save them, unless the three regiments could create another miracle that everyone did not believe, otherwise this army would definitely have no life at all.

This battle was originally cruel, and in exchange for a few years with a third regiment, Cai Ye and Yang Xiaolin prepared in this way.

After saying the word "three regiments", Yang Xiaolin felt his heart twitch violently, and there was a heart-wrenching pain as if his body was evacuated in an instant.

Cai Ye said very calmly: "Yes." The three regiments were to hold out in Dalian for at least a month, and they had to prepare enough weapons, ammunition, and food supplies for them. ”

Chen Tianhua said busily: "No problem, just say a number as much as you want, I'll prepare." ”

Yang Xiaolin's hand shook slightly: "Let Songpa arrange it, there is one more thing to do in advance, we also have to mention that the Russians will fight us, the militia must be ready to fight at any time, if the Russians really come, remember, don't care about the territory, don't defend it, understand?" ”

Chen Tianhua nodded, he knew that the situation this time was very grim, if the volunteers could break this stalemate, they would be able to kill it for at least three years, if they couldn't break it, then there would be nothing.

Yang Xiaolin glanced at Cai Yi: "Okay, Songpo, follow Jihua's preparations." ”

As soon as his words landed, Nyerere came in from outside: "Commander, intelligence. ”

Nyerere's pitch-black hand contained a yellowed piece of paper, and Yang Xiaolin took the information from his hand, and at a glance he knew who had sent it to him.

This intelligence line is not Huang Bao's, this intelligence officer has been in one-line contact with Yang Xiaolin since he helped Yang Xiaolin do things, and from the time he started to cooperate with Yang Xiaolin to the present, he has only sent two pieces of information to Yang Xiaolin, this is the third one.

Opening the yellowed piece of paper, Yang Xiaolin's face suddenly changed after taking a look: "Oops! ”

Cai Ye and Chen Tianhua were a little surprised when they saw Yang Xiaolin's expression, Chen Tianhua stretched out his head, but Yang Xiaolin crumpled the yellow paper into a ball: "Change Jihua immediately!" I can't fight the Japanese.,All jihua canceled.,Tell me about it.,Hurry! ”

Cai Ye hurriedly asked, "Commander, what's going on?" ”

"Zaitao wants to fight Mukden, Zaitao wants to snatch Mukden back from the hands of the Russians!" (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to (.) to vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support is my biggest motivation. )
