Bright Sword: Start with Ding Blast Bridge, Homemade Sweet Potato Cake

Wang Chao was originally in charge of the maintenance of cruisers in Hulugang, but was suddenly ordered to be transferred to Lianligang.

These two places are our natural harbors, suitable for the development of the fleet and have great advantages.

Now that the Russian big brother is willing to withdraw, the Northern Fleet needs to quickly complete the handover and take away all the equipment and supplies left behind by the other side.

Don't think that the Soviet Union's Pacific Fleet is a good guy.

They comprehensively assessed the current situation and found that they might not have an advantage on land, at sea, or in the air.

Ding Wei's Manchuria exerted considerable pressure.

Once the Northern Fleet's air and submarine forces are deployed, the Pacific Fleet may not be able to leave even if it wants to.

Instead of doing this, it would be better to leave early and return to the port and their Pacific Fleet base.

Another reason is more fundamental.

There is no particularly good outlet to the sea in the Far East, and the seaport is frozen for three months a year, not to mention other ports in the north.

Lianlu Port is a natural harbor, and is connected to the Middle East Line in Manchuria, and can pass through the Eurasian Continental Bridge railway line.

Ding Wei's rise caused the Russians to lose the right to use the Manchurian Railway, and stationing troops at the port posed a huge hidden danger.

As long as the railway is cut off, this group will lose its logistical supplies on land.

If you want to transport it by sea, you have to ask the Eagle Sauce for its opinion.

The Soviet Union's other three fleets are thousands of miles away. Once a war breaks out, the Pacific Fleet will be isolated and helpless.

From a strategic point of view, it is time to retreat.

If I say I'm reluctant, I really am.

The conditions of these two ports are very favorable, and they can instantly threaten the core areas of Longguo to the east.

Going west can make Northern Korea and Southern Korea tremble.

It is no exaggeration to say that it is an important fortress in the Western Pacific, capable of disrupting large tracts of coastline.

In addition, during the half century of occupation by the Japanese and foreign invaders, the two ports were continuously developed and have become a good naval base with shipyards, military factories, chemical plants and other supporting industries.

Given the character of the Russian bear, if you let him retreat, he will definitely empty your place.

What can Ding Wei do?

Why do I need an empty city? You've been using it for 50 years for nothing, so it's not too much to pay some rent.

Buckle them down, buckle them all down.

The warships can be taken away, but the equipment, factories and supplies must all be left behind.

He ordered Zhou Weiguo to mobilize two divisions of troops and quickly gather them on the Liao Peninsula, equipped with a large number of Tianshu fighter jets and Polaris rocket launchers.

The inland fleet's 30 shallow-water heavy artillery boats and 15 missile speedboats gathered near the port.

Wang Chao approached this side from the near sea.

Form an encirclement posture against the Russian bear's troops.

First gain the advantage in terms of manpower and weapons, then negotiate.

The Russian bear was directly blown away. It had more than a thousand cannons, enough weapons and equipment to equip 15 divisions, more than 300 tanks, 69 aircraft, and ships of various types.

230 million artillery shells of various types, 20 tons of fuel, and the construction of 9 military airports, as well as supporting hospitals, schools, and warehouses.

I can't give these things to you, Ding Wei, for free, right?

Not giving?

Liao Xiazi's Sugang fleet has been almost fully trained, and can use exercises to blockade the waters near the port.

With the Eagle Sauce eyeing them covetously from outside, and Liao Xiazi's Sugang fleet from inside, led by four destroyers, and with more than a hundred other missile boats, torpedo boats, and heavy artillery boats, the threat they pose is very strong.

The main force of the Pacific Fleet is in Lianlu Port. There are only two destroyers and a dozen small warships near the harbor.

There are many mines in the sea.

Without saying anything, Liao the Blind blocked the sea area. The merchant ship was unable to dodge and hit the mines.

The splash caused by the explosion was as high as several people.

The merchant ship was leaking and wanted to return quickly, but was stopped by the Sugang fleet.

What are you doing?

You hit our mines and you want to leave without compensation?

Under the interception of two S550 gunboats (Sugang 550-ton offshore shallow-water heavy gunboat, equipped with 107mm main guns and multiple 64mm secondary guns, with sufficient firepower), the merchant ship was in danger of sinking into the sea.

With the intention of being helpful, they helped move the supplies from the merchant ship onto the transport boat.

Isn't this simply bullying?

Blind Liao has always advocated that we should not be polite to the Russian bear, but should fight when necessary and do what needs to be done.

Anyway, the people on our hands are the Japs and the ones we kill are foreigners. It's no loss when Japs fight Japs.

The combat capability of the Sugang fleet has reached a considerable scale, especially the two Fletcher-class destroyers purchased from Eagle Sauce, with a full load displacement of 3000 tons and good combat capability.

Its artillery and torpedo attack capabilities are superior to those of the fleet stationed in the harbor.

The other two ships purchased were the Shimakaze-class destroyers and the Akizuki-class destroyers.

It has a fast speed and strong lightning strike capability.

It is equipped with three quintuple-mounted torpedo launchers, and its experimental speed has reached 40.9 knots.

It runs fast and has powerful torpedo attack capability.

The Soviet Union's remaining fleet has only two old destroyers, one of which is a Type 1 destroyer with a full load displacement of less than 2800 tons. It has been in service for 20 years.

The firepower is okay, but it has no anti-aircraft firepower and no anti-submarine capability, and it is already outdated.

There is also a Type 2040 destroyer, one of the ships they originally wanted to sell to us, with a full load displacement of tons, weak firepower and unstable structure.

Once these two backward destroyers open fire, they will definitely be eaten up.

At this moment, we can only rely on the naval base in the harbor, combined with shore-based artillery, troops, and aircraft, to form a defensive posture.

I definitely don’t dare to come out.

This is Ding Wei’s method of threatening. If you are willing to hand over the naval fortress of Lianlugang, then everyone can still be good friends.

If they are unwilling to pay and want to empty the city, we will not rule out other means.

In the end, both sides will surely suffer losses.

The most excited ones are the Eagles, who are hoping that Longguo and the Russian bear will fight and that Ding Wei's ground forces will sweep over.

Two dogs fight, play off.

He also took the initiative to contact Blind Liao to see if he needed any help.

As long as it is beneficial to the war, the Americans are willing to provide it at a low price.

Look, the two destroyers sold played a big role, causing internal strife between the Russians and the Chinese.

The situation is before us, and the choice we make depends entirely on the Russian bear.

If you are not decent, then no one else should be decent.

If you are more respectable, we will call you big brother in the future.

Anov arrived in Manchuria urgently and was assigned by the top leaders to go to Harbin to negotiate with Ding Wei.

Regarding the equipment, weapons, equipment and supplies left behind by the Lian Brigade in Hong Kong, these were all invested by the Russian Bear in its construction. It is really unreasonable not to allow them to be taken away.

Let's not make relations so strained.

In the office, Ding Wei asked, "Do you want to continue to serve as the commander of the Second Front Army, or do you want to be the commander of the Far East Military Region?"

Arnov was silent for as long as it took to blink.

It should be said that he betrayed the navy without hesitation.

"Selling at a low price, 8 million rubles, payable in 15 years. We can also leave some technicians behind to make it easier for your troops to take over."

Ding Wei stretched out his hand and made a slap gesture.

"50%? Cut it in half, million rubles?"

Arnold tried to ask.

"No, no, no, I said you owe me a slap. Why should I pay you for Ding Wei's things?"
