C1464 The sound of the cannons of the Haishenwai. (1/2)

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 …”
