Opening his eyes, holding up his binoculars, and embroidering through the narrow observation window, Kilikov felt as if he had discovered a paradise. ※※※※※ I ※ I ※ ※

In the turquoise bay, fish leap from the blue waters from time to time and pass through the tranquil bay, and the beautiful mountains in the distance are covered with fresh huā, red, yellow, purple and white, like a large moving carpet extending outward.

Surrounded by countless small European-style fortresses made of huā granite, wisps of cooking smoke rise and mix with the mist on the sea's surface, giving people a picturesque mood.

As a member of the Empire's elite Caucasian warrior regiment, he arrived here a month ago by train with 5,000 companions "for the first time for those soldiers who have lived inland for a long time."

Before that, he simply could not imagine the magnificence of the sea "but!

When his gaze came to the charred black on the outer wall of a building, it was as uncomfortable as swallowing a bedbug while eating, and this beautiful Far Eastern harbor was now trembling under fire!

Fortunately, the army could not drag heavy artillery of more than ten inches, and for more than ten days, except for a small number of six-inch cannons in the squadron, "nothing else could threaten these thick rocks", not to mention that their fleet was still blocked out", so everyone believed that a scene of several years would never happen again.

The only thing that worries people is the ammunition, since the ammunition warehouse was attacked by a sneak attack and there was a big explosion more than a month ago, the supply of ammunition has become difficult, but fortunately, there was no centralized storage at that time, there were still some reserves in the fortress, and the good materials were quite sufficient, so as long as the status quo can be maintained, even if it is a year or two, it can be held.

It's just that.......

Kilikov looked northeast, and a throbbing suddenly rose in his heart, this feeling was extremely uncomfortable, as if he was trapped in the water and could not breathe, and he did not understand where this feeling came from" and hurriedly ascended the narrow aisle to the lookout post on the roof.

After boarding the observation post, his field of vision suddenly widened, and there was no figure to be seen outside the northeast horizon, which made him breathe a great sigh of relief, and when figures appeared all around, the soldiers began to get up in twos and threes, and the feeling slowly dissipated.

However, he found a peculiar place, because no matter which direction he turned the telescope, he found no trace of the Chinese people, which reminded me that these guys who were everywhere like cockroaches seemed to have received the news that they had all left Vladivostok before the arrival of the Chinese team.

Did they get some news?

Suddenly, the feeling in his heart rose again, "It's just that he didn't know" Compared to the quiet Vladivostok fortress in front of him, the early morning "was already busy under the northeast horizon."

Forty huge Hippopotamus-class airships occupy the entire clearing, you can't imagine what it's like to stop in front of a guy the size of forty battleships, when they are next to each other, it is not spectacular, nor exciting, but a kind of depression and suffocation!

Yes, because you can't see the sky in the distance" Their bodies block all view, and their huge bodies make you feel as small and insignificant as ants.

Piercing between these behemoths" Li Mo was also made hot by the scene in front of him, this will be a large-scale aerial bombardment in the history of mankind, and it appeared in 1903, and it was made by himself!

Is there anything more exciting than this?

But when he saw the soldiers pushing carts "to transport bombs like oil drums back and forth between the airships, his heart skipped a beat."

Because of their own request, the big-headed monsters of the Ministry of Science and Technology made another demon, although those chemical experts still don't know why Emperor Li coagulated the gasoline so that it can burn for a long time, they still came up with the formula and handed it over to the Equipment Support Department.

After the recipe for using a mixture of naphthenic acid and fatty acid as a thickener was handed over to the military experts of the Ministry of Equipment and Logistics Support, they finally made this monster in combination with white phosphorus incendiary bombs. (Full text reading, all in. (.i. Want. Wen. Learning Network)

Napalm!

As an incendiary bomb "in fact it is not more powerful than a white phosphorus incendiary bomb, but the problem is that this thing is cheap and simple to process!"

As a confidential weapon of mass destruction of the Chinese army, white phosphorus incendiary bombs "have been valued after several uses, and aluminum powder has been added instead" to enhance the power of incention, but the problem is that whether it is a generation or an older generation, the price and manufacture of incendiary bombs are extremely troublesome.

However, napalm is different, because Li Mo's emphasis on oil is as crazy as shipbuilding, as early as Hawaii began to carry out oil reserves, after entering the Northeast, not only under the name of the Ministry of Natural Resources to open a separate oil exploration and exploitation center, the Ministry of Science and Technology also set up a synthetic chemical research institute, plus in the past few years, through the purchase of equipment, their own imitation and recreation, etc., "has established the world's second, comparable to the United States petrochemical industry."

In addition to Rockefeller's simple oil refining and asphalt supply, Li Mo also made a number of vulcanized rubber, and recently made additional products such as lubricants for machines and special aviation gasoline, so that the synthetic chemical industry began to sprout.

It is precisely because of the emperor's obsession with oil that the Yanchang oil field has not only expanded dozens of times, but also the Ministry of Natural Resources has successively discovered several other oil fields in Urumqi and other places, coupled with the large source of overseas imports, "oil reserves began to increase wildly, and the price of gasoline began to fall all the way."

According to the current price, a 500-kilogram napalm is one-twentieth of the burning of old-fashioned white phosphorus of the same weight, and one-twenty-fifth of the type, even if the incendiary bomb is powerful enough, it is by no means comparable to the effect of 25 napalm of the same weight.

As a guest of later generations, Li Mo knew better than everyone else in his time how powerful this bomb was, or the United States of the future would have secretly maintained this bomb under the constraints of international law.

"Report to the Emperor, the Vladivostok Attack Brigade is ready" The people and troops within five kilometers of Vladivostok have also been evacuated, please instruct. "Air Force Commander Qin Muhua grinned" interrupted Li Mo's train of thought, being able to let the Air Force decide a war" is his big dream, and today he finally has the opportunity to come true!

"Let's go, come back safely."

"Yes" Come back safely! ”

As Qin Muhuafei drilled into the No. 101 airship, the signal soldier waved the green flag vigorously, and streams of black smoke immediately erupted from the engine compartment, and the humming engine could be heard even from several kilometers away.

Subsequently, a spectacular scene was seen in the entire Ding Ling base, only to see two falcons take the lead in the air, and the first airship also quickly unmoored and slowly rose into the sky relying on the hydrogen in the airbag.

This was followed by the second, the third, and the fourth,

When the first twenty airships were all lifted into the air, "as if the sky was obscured, the soldiers shouted excitedly, shouting, "waving their arms, as if only to let their comrades in the sky see them."

After the first batch of airships gradually flew away, the second batch also began to slowly rise into the air, and it was another spectacular picture, and several photographers who accompanied the army kept pressing the door, and the photographers couldn't help but turn the camera a lot.

When all 40 Hippopotamus-class ships were lifted into the air, Li Mo boarded a special helium-powered airship and slowly followed the large force towards Vladivostok.

Thirty kilometers "Maybe the infantry has to walk two small sights, and if you bring heavy equipment, it will even take three to four hours, but for the air force flying in the sky, it is almost a bag of cigarettes.

When two falcons roared over Vladivostok and sharp whistles sounded from everywhere, the whole Vladivostok was in a state of confusion, because it was clear to everyone these days that "as soon as these monsters that could fly in the sky appeared, a torrential rain of cannonballs would follow."

Kilikov looked at the whizzing plane, wondering why these things could fly in the sky, "while holding his head and waiting for the first few difficult minutes of shelling, but surprisingly, "after waiting for a full few minutes, he didn't see any shells falling, and he couldn't help but look up from behind the thick observation post wall."

But when he looked up, "he froze," and he did not even hear the shrill whistles that sounded around him, "for he saw dozens of huge airships" slowly burrowing out of the clouds like ancient beasts, and flying towards Vladivostok.

He knew that the Chinese people had airships, because he had heard that this kind of big guy, which was very popular in Europe, was first made by the Chinese people, and he had heard that His Majesty the Emperor was in a hurry to buy airship technology, and even heard that the Chinese people had made a lot of money by selling the technology of these airships, but he never thought that when these big guys gathered in L, they flew from the top of their heads, and it would bring great pressure.

But he didn't know what would happen to Hai Duowei after that.

In the ammunition compartment of the No. 4 airship, Xiao Li is carefully adjusting the timing detonator on the bomb, and performing the same asphyxiation task, these "big oil drums" also have a mass inside the central government, and then through a metal pipe to connect the fuse to the external detonator like a dial, there are two batteries in the detonator, as long as the height of the airship at that time, you can calculate how long it will take to reach the ground from the falling speed obtained by a large number of previous experiments, and then adjust the time for the detonator to ignite the fuse according to this, When the scale is reset to zero, the two stages of the battery will quickly staggern, and the detonating bomb will explode the contents and spread in all directions.

As the latter detonator was set, the door of the bomb chamber was quickly opened, and the fierce wind howled into the ammunition compartment, making Xiao Li involuntarily stumble two steps, fortunately he had already fastened his seat belt, "Otherwise, it will be very dangerous."

Xiao Li quickly put on the windshield and walked to a row of handles, compared with the first generation of airships, the second generation of ammunition bay is equipped with an automatic bomb dropper, "through the mechanical handle, not only can the bomb be thrown down quickly, changing the trouble of pushing by hand in the past, but also can accurately control the speed of each bomb dropped, so that the distribution of ammunition is more accurate."

Through the porthole, Xiao Li could see that "the first batch of twenty airships began to disperse one after another, forming a four-column formation, each of which was about 500 meters apart, so that the four columns could reach a width of two kilometers, enough to cover the Vladivostok fortress once."

When some buildings began to appear on the ground under his feet, Xiao Li immediately held his breath, he knew that he had arrived at the periphery of Vladivostok, and the bomb order would come at any time.

Suddenly, some points of light appeared on the ground under their feet, which were the result of the Russian soldiers shooting into the sky, but unfortunately they did not have the large-caliber anti-aircraft machine guns that the troops had just equipped, otherwise they would not dare to fly over them easily.

Suddenly, the front of the airship tilted down sharply, and the fortress building in the bomb window became clear, "This is a sudden knocking sound on the hatch, this is the signal of the bomb!"

As an army that was equipped with airships and put them into actual combat, the Chinese Air Force has experience that no country can match, and coupled with the hard training of the past few years, some excellent bombardiers can even drop bombs into the secret range of the target.

When the first mechanical handle is flattened violently? The first batch of two napalm fell from the window to the ground, and ten seconds later the second, third, fourth, and eight batches, and by the time all sixteen 500-kilogram napalm had been dropped, "clouds of fire had already appeared on the ground.

Yes, it's a fire cloud!

Li Mo stood in the airship and clearly saw a napalm explode about twenty meters above the fortress, "Countless gelatinous things were ignited by the exploding sparks and flew in all directions, forming a fire cloud of about two hundred and fifty square meters, completely covering the area."

Twenty airships, each of eight tons and sixteen, a total of 160 stews and 320 napalm, caused damage that no one who had ever seen of them could not have imagined, and these things were similar to white phosphorus, which "would attach to anything and burn for a long time" and the billowing smoke rising from it would instantly drown half of the sea cucumber.

Standing in the observation post on a high place, Kilikov found that the bombs had actually deviated from him, and while secretly calling for luck, he was also stunned by the scene in front of him, "I saw countless exposed comrades who began to scream in the sea of fire, sparks ignited from everywhere on their bodies, and those flames seemed to have some kind of magic" even clinging to the stone wall and would not be extinguished!

No one dared to rush out of the bunker to rescue those shouting comrades, because everyone found that as soon as someone rushed out of the stone fort, the flames would immediately devour him, if it was just devouring, if someone brought the flames back to the stone fort, then the whole stone fort would burn.

Some of the warriors on fire began to roll and "start shaking their hands, hoping to get rid of these demons", but this rolling and shaking behavior caused the flames to spread "and eventually spread more and more."

Kilikov gasped for air, the stench of burning sneering irritated his nose and reddened his eyes, and the flames detonated some ammunition from time to time, "Some of the wooden buildings were reduced to ashes early, but it wasn't over yet, because he noticed that a second batch of airships had appeared overhead.

Wave after wave, round after round, maybe dozens, or several, or even one" When they sprinkled the fire like hellfire, the whole Vladivostok could no longer see a human figure" The trees were burning, the barracks were burning, the earth was burning, and the air was even burning.

Explosions rang out from all over the vladivostok, adding to the fright.

The war was not merciful, but full of violence, even if Xue Muhua and all the air force soldiers were stunned by this burning, "they still kept throwing napalm, even if it was already blackened, it had to be burned again."

Later, in order to drop a full 1,500 tons of napalm, Xue Muhua even adopted the production method of an assembly line of workers, and let 40 airships line up to drop bombs, constantly going back and forth between the base and Vladivostok.

As the bombs kept falling, the flames became more and more intense, no matter how strong the wind was, no matter where he hid, it seemed that he could not be avoided, and what made people mad was that as more and more things were lit, thick smoke began to rise from all over the fortress, and a large number of pungent and unpleasant smells began to make the soldiers faint, if it was in an open place, it might be better, but in a narrow place, thick smoke accumulated, and it often only took a few minutes to smoke into shock or even death.

Kilikov couldn't breathe anymore, because he found that all he was exhaling was scorching, and his nasal cavity was half burning, and in horror he began to look for a way out of the predicament, and when he saw several destroyers moored in the harbor and began to rush towards the waterway, he seemed to see a glimmer of light, but before he could follow his comrades' footsteps, he saw countless droplets of water around the first destroyer that rushed to the mouth of the waterway" The rumbling cannon began to come from the sea in the distance, and then he remembered that those battleships were still outside!

This scene completely cut off everyone's hope of leaving.

A napalm exploded above his head, as if it were all over, and he watched in a daze as the flames, as thick as lard, fell on his body with flames, no matter how much he slapped or covered up, he could not extinguish these demons, when his clothes were burned, when his body began to scorch, "The screams of the observation post in the center of Vladivostok gradually disappeared.

After 3,000 and 1,500 tons of napalm, after 188 successive bombs, "the sky seemed to be burning red, and the flames rising from Vladivostok at night could be clearly seen even from the base 30 kilometers away.

When the airship group quietly took off a few hours later and flew towards Jilin, Xue Muhua realized that the air force had just completed a continuous high-intensity bombardment, and for the first time, it wanted its own forces to "destroy a large fortress city that was also the first in Europe."

When the flames were extinguished the next afternoon, the 1st Marine Division entered Vladivostok with 5,000 hired men in charge of cleaning up, "and when they entered, they knew what had happened here after nearly 60 hours of burning."

50,000 soldiers, 13,000 ordinary Russians, the rest of which were only 1,300, as many as 20,000 were directly burned to death, and the rest were all smoked to death by poisonous smoke.

There were only five words on the telegram: Vladivostok, disappear!
