Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

Right now, the Haishenwai was just a simple fort, with rocks as the foundation and huge trees as the wall.

The entire terrain of the Haishenwai was actually a huge bay, with a peninsula extending from the land to the sea. This peninsula was surrounded on three sides by the sea, and only the north side was connected to the mainland.

This huge bay, which contains the peninsula, was named Great Peter Bay by the Soviets. And this peninsula was the old city district of Haishenwai, but now this peninsula was completely militarized.

Big Peter Bay was divided into two small coasts by the Haishenwai city. The eastern cove was called the Amur Bay, and the western one was called the Wusuli Bay. From the looks of the terrain, the Amur Bay was protected by a series of islands, making it even safer.

The commander of the Haishenwai's defense zone, Ji Yaqinke, and the commander of the navy, Ai Tuolin, had been in a constant state of panic for the past few months. Ever since the Bravehearts of the Far East began their counterattack in February, all the strongholds outside were pulled out one by one.

The transport between land and sea had been completely cut off. Information from the outside world could not be transmitted in, and no one knew what would happen in the future.

The surface of the sea was full of Chinese ships, shipping goods to the north one by one. At the beginning, Ai Tuolin had even ordered the guards to expel them as they played cat and mouse on the sea.

However, when the three heavily injured frigate s rushed over from the south and brought the news that the entire Expeditionary forces was annihilated, the entire Haishenwai was shocked.

The terrible defeat of the Amami Oshima's Sha Russia Navy caused the Haishenwai's morale to drop to the freezing point. The soldiers revealed a look of despair, and there were even a lot of cases of servants defecting.

At this time, the only way to maintain order was to rely on Sha Russia's own soldiers. After a series of internal purges, the defection was finally stopped, and soon after, a Chinese spy who was bought by Sha Russia secretly infiltrated the Haishenwai, bringing them news of reinforcements on land.

When the thirteen thousand garrison troops learned that there were fifty to sixty thousand Cossack cavalry coming to their rescue day and night in the far north, their shattered hearts finally calmed down a little.

However, Ai Tuolin no longer dared to send out his fleet. In the future war, the Navy's cannons would be the most important support to the defending troops. Whether or not they could last until the reinforcements arrived would all depend on these cannons.

There were a total of 6 out of 12 battleships from the Far Eastern Navy plus the Baltic Fleet that had scattered and escaped. There were a total of 18 big and small battleships, all coiled inside the Amur Bay.

The army artillery on the shore provided cover for the navy, and the navy artillery could also support the army. Under the cover of crossfire, the two generals felt a sense of security.

When the Bravehearts of the Far East saw that the Russian was frightened, they naturally wouldn't be polite. The conveying brigade of the great ocean was even close to the edge of the enemy's cannon range, sending their ammunition and supplies directly to the northern shore of the Wusuli Bay. They directly unloaded and moved to the frontmost front line of the War of the Bravehearts.

"Three ships of ammunition arrived this morning, and they still haven't finished unloading their cargo. Why are these Chinese so rich? "Too terrifying …" Ai Tuolin was a admiral of the navy. One look at the size of the three merchant ships was enough to estimate how many tons of supplies the three ships had brought.

Ji Yaqinke stood at the high point of the fortress with him, holding the Military Maps on top of the ammunition boxes and the binoculars in his hands, he sighed and said, "This is power! When was the worst time of the war? It's not a frontal battle, nor is it a sneak attack. In fact, the thing that people are most afraid of is the preparation stage on the eve of the war! "

"At this stage, both sides are quietly displaying their strength. These Chinese are using this kind of silent means to pressure us. Each ship's war supplies are a symbol of the country's strength. They are telling us how big the gap is between the two sides …"

"These three ships have to unload at least 1500 tons of cargo. How much is their total value? Four or five million? How much money have the Chinese put into this war since last year? "

Ji Yaqinke was as irritable as a lion as he roared, "Why are they so rich! They could prepare hundreds of millions of silver for a war, so why do we have to eat only moldy potatoes?! "

"My God! Why did you send the noble Russian people to the bitter cold, why did the warm south have no land for us! Why should we be excluded from wealth! "Why …"

Ai Tuolin had long gotten used to his hysteria, he knew that the pressure on the commander was just too much. It could be said that the Haishenwai was the most encouraging victory they had after the defeat of the Crimean War.

This city cannot be lost. This matter concerns His Majesty and the honor of the entire Russia!

"Suffering has made Russia. I always believe that God is fair. God did not give us a rich and warm place, but gave us a strong body and a fighting spirit!"

"This is to ensure that we will forever be the rulers. We will have to go through the hardships of the beginning. Their wealth will eventually support us! Let them become our slaves, that's what motivates us to keep fighting! "

Ji Yaqinke gasped as she laughed, "Ai Tuolin, you're right! This is the destiny of our fighting nation. Since we are not good at creating wealth, God has not given us a place of wealth … Then let us snatch it away! "

"Guard Haishenwai! Wait for the arrival of the Cossack cavalry Group, then we will have the chance to take revenge! One day, we will meet at the foot of the Great Wall! "

Boom! Boom! Boom! Just as the two of them made their vows, dozens of balls of bright flames suddenly exploded from the northern front lines. The cannonballs in the sky drew a faint trajectory, and very quickly, balls of smoke rose from Haishenwai's city area.

"It's a war!" The Chinese are at war! "Prepare to counterattack, the entire army is preparing to counterattack..."

Without any warning, Xiang Shaolong used his cannons to declare war on Haishenwai. After the brave army advanced, Xiao Letian brought over 120 field cannons for Dragon Lord.

Dragon Lord stood inside the fortifications built from logs, using his binoculars to look at the dense smoke coming from Haishenwai, he expressionlessly said, "Pass down the order, from now on the bombardment will last 24 hours, the quota you guys get is 60,000 cannons!"

"Shoot these shells! Flatten the enemy's defenses! It would crush their final morale! From now on, it is time for us to suppress them and attack! "

Xiang Shaolong said without turning his head, "Ye Qiu, go tell Hidden Fog Kid, she is in charge of the support for the forty thousand strong army, the Prime Minister only gave us the supplies, but the supplies must be prepared by ourselves. That is her mission, if she does not complete it …"

"Be careful of my military law!"

"Yes, General!" Sniper Ye Qiu took out the order.
