Open an aircraft carrier to fight against Japan

Chen Fei asked: "When will the mine be completed?"

Lin Yuan said: "The first batch of retreating troops from the Russian army is expected to reach the river in two days. At that time, the Russian fleet will come to meet them. You should finish laying mines before then."

Fade Chen saw that the sky was bright at this time, so he ordered his subordinates to rest and prepare to lay mines at night. At six o'clock in the evening, it was completely dark, and Fade Chen led more than a hundred people to the riverside quietly.

It was another dark cloudy night, and the pitch-black night shrouded the river. Fade Chen whispered, "The action begins!"

Give an order. Thirty soldiers rode horses and walked upstream and downstream respectively. They served as guards, and the rest stayed where they were. Fade Chen and the two soldiers unloaded the baskets containing the mines from the horses. There was a rope beside the basket, and several people pulled the mine to the ice together.

At this time, a thin layer of ice had formed on the surface of the river. Fade Chen took two soldiers to change into diving suits and tied ropes around their waists. Holding the rope in the basket, Fade Chen whispered: "The ice near the shore is the thickest, and it gets thinner as you go to the center of the river. The ice may break at any time. Be careful, don't get scratched by the ice."

After walking more than a dozen steps, Fade Chen waved his hand, then squatted down and lay down on the ice, and the other two soldiers also squatted down. Fade Chen crawled on the ice with hands and feet, and suddenly heard a "click" , Cracks appeared on the ice under his right knee. Fade Chen quickly lay down on the ice, and before he could continue climbing, he heard the sound of the ice cracking again.

Fade Chen thought: "Sooner or later the ice surface will break, I'd better dig through the ice layer and go into the water." So Fade Chen made a gesture of entering the water, and the three of them took out the iron rods they were carrying, opened the ice layer, and went down into the water.

Even though he was wearing a thick cotton coat under his diving suit, Fade Chen still felt bitingly cold. He put the basket containing the mines into the water. The mines had buoys on them, which could float in the water. The anchors under the mines could catch the river bed. , Fade Chen threw the anchor into the bottom of the river, and under the joint action of the anchor and the buoy, the mine floated in the water one meter deep from the water surface.

Several people worked all night, and finally laid fifty mines, and they rushed back to the mountains early the next morning.

As soon as the news of the destruction of the pontoon bridge of the Russian army reached Grodjeko, Grodekko ordered the fleet to dispatch to the site where the pontoon bridge was erected to welcome the defeated army back.

The place where the pontoon bridge is erected is one of the few places suitable for large troops to operate, so the Russian army can only cross the river here. The Russian army fleet sailed out of the fishing port. The thin ice layer on the river is not enough to withstand the weight of the ship. The Russian ship broke through the ice and drove towards the crossing point.

What the Russian army did not expect was that less than an hour after the fleet sailed out of the fishing port, only a muffled "boom" came from the water, and a wave of more than ten meters high suddenly rose on the water beside a ship. The curtain almost enveloped the ship.

The large mine weighed a ton. Fade Chen’s mine was not that big, only about [-] catties, but it was filled with high-energy explosives. The explosion was powerful enough for these troop carriers. The explosion pushed the water flow and pushed the waterline A large hole with a diameter of ten meters was torn in the hull below, and a large amount of river water poured into the hull.

The troop carrier tilted sharply in everyone's sight, and soon the heel angle reached fifteen degrees. Not only would the people inside be untenable at such a large inclination angle, but the ship would sink soon, and the people on board had no choice but to Can only jump into the water.

The fleet commander's ship was right next to the ship, and the fleet commander hurriedly ordered to rescue the crew members who fell into the water, but before the commander could pass on the order, a loud noise came from under his feet, and the ship shook violently. Unable to stand, he fell heavily.

The position of the commander of the fleet happened to be the bridge of the ship. When he fell down, his head hit the steering wheel. With a "snap", the head of the Russian commander was like a watermelon falling on the ground, and it instantly fell apart.

The people around were stunned, but it was too late for them to announce the death of the commander, because their ship was about to sink, and the hole in their ship was even bigger, and the water rushed in faster. It was at the bow, so the whole ship fell head-first into the water like an unbalanced seesaw.

In less than 10 minutes, both troop carriers sank. The Russian army knew that the river was covered by Chinese mines, and no ship dared to move on. All the troop carriers stopped in an emergency and stopped on the water. They all fled back to the fishing port.

But Grodjeko, who was running away desperately, didn't know about this. On the way of running wildly, Grodjeko had already thought of a way to counter Lin Yuan, that is to lead the defeated troops to stick to Khabarovsk and order the northern and southern lines to attack Lin Yuan. The Russian army attacked at the same time, taking Qiqihar on the north line and Jilin on the south line, and reoccupied the three eastern provinces.

Grodjeko was the first group to come to the river, accompanied by the commander of the First Army and several division commanders. They didn't see the accompanying warship, and they couldn't help worrying and wondering. It turned out that the fleet sent soldiers Waiting in the river crossing area, when you meet the retreating soldiers, tell them that there are mines in the water and they are impassable, and let them go in the direction of the fishing port.

Naturally, Fade Chen would not let these people go. He led the crowd to kill the Russian soldiers who left the report, so even though Grodjeko reached the river, he still didn't know what happened.

Just when Grodjeko and a group of high-ranking officials were at a loss by the river, a staff officer came up with an idea and said, "Let's go upstream, and as long as we reach the fishing port, we can find our fleet."

Grodjeko nodded helplessly and agreed. He knew that Khabarovsk could no longer be defended, and the fishing port would be lost. The only way out was to board a boat and return to Blagoveshchensk, where he would command the operations. , Maybe you can find a chance to win back!Once Grodjeko and a group of high-ranking officials left like this, the Russian army chased by Lin Yuan's troops completely lost their command, and they, who had no fighting spirit, became a mess. Using mortars to launch propaganda bombs and actively promoting our army's policies, many Russian army units surrendered.On December [-]th, Lin Yuan led the main force and arrived at the bank of the Heilongjiang River. Lin Yuan immediately ordered the erection of a pontoon bridge on the river, and the pontoon bridge was erected soon. Pushing forward with all their strength, the Russian soldiers in the villages and towns on the road already knew the news that the Siberian First Army had been defeated, and gave up resistance one after another.

It took less than a day for Lin Yuan to lead his troops to the city of Khabarovsk. Just as Lin Yuan was about to order his troops to attack the city, the messenger sent a letter saying: "This is the Russian army sending you here."

On the envelope was written Lin Yuan's relatives in Chinese characters. Lin Yuan opened the envelope and took out the letter, and saw that it read: Dear General Lin Yuan, on behalf of all the officers and soldiers of the Khabarovsk garrison, I would like to extend my sincere respect to Your Excellency. The troops surrendered. Since [-]:[-] on December [-], [-] AD, all military and political personnel in Khabarovsk have obeyed the command of General Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan looked down at the signature of the letter, and saw that it read: Brigadier General Ivan Antonov of the Khabarovsk Garrison of the Russian Empire.

Lin Yuan handed the letter to the staff officer beside him, and said, "Keep it away, this is the first surrender letter we Chinese have received, and we must put it in the museum in the future."
