Tsarist Empire: Please call me His Majesty the Tsar

Far East, Lushun Military Port, headquarters of the Pacific Fleet of the Imperial Russian Navy.

In the conference room located at the fleet headquarters, the imperial tsar Mikhail, together with the generals of the Pacific Fleet, held a military meeting.

"Gentlemen, everyone knows very well that the next thing our Pacific Fleet will face is the Imperial Navy of the East. For several years, the entire Far East, including the 6th Army of the Army and the Pacific Fleet of the Navy, has been preparing for war. And our enemies are the Orientals. In other words, it is an Oriental people who are strongly supported by the people who do not set in the sun. Mikhail had a serious expression.

The same is true of the generals of the Pacific Fleet.

If everyone didn't care about the Oriental people before. So now, with the strength of the Eastern Imperial Navy constantly increasing. Everyone has also recognized the strength of the Imperial Navy of the East.

"The Eastern Empire defeated the Great Qing Empire a few years ago and obtained a large amount of wealth from the Great Qing Empire. This also allowed the Eastern Empire to vigorously develop armaments. You know, the people of the sun never set have been encircling and blocking the empire. This is no secret anymore. In addition, the empire won the victory in the Balkan War and completed its expansion in the Balkans, which made the people of the sun not set very dissatisfied. In the past few years, they have increased their support for Oriental people. We can conclude that within the next year or two, the Orientals will attack the empire. Therefore, the Pacific Fleet must enter the highest state of combat readiness, and must avoid a surprise attack by the Orientals!" Mikhail continued.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" the generals of the Pacific Fleet replied.

"Next, I decided to divide the Pacific Fleet into two detachments. The first detachment, including four battleships of the Catherine II class, battleships Navarin, and

The armored cruisers Reich, Rurik, Pamitzova and Nasimov, as well as several faster protected cruisers. The remaining battleships Peter the Great, two battleships of the Alexander II class, battleships of the Twelve Apostles and battleships Gangut, as well as the remaining protected cruisers, formed the second detachment.

As soon as the battle began, the first detachment immediately went to sea, left the military port, headed south to Cam Ranh Bay, and withdrew from the battle. The second detachment, remaining in the military port, assisted the fortress with naval guns and resisted the attack of the Oriental people .!"

Mikhail said to the crowd.

This tactic made the generals of the Pacific Fleet look at each other, and everyone seemed to be unacceptable.

Although the navy of the Orientals is very strong, we are not weak either! We are still backed by the Lushun Fortress, and we can completely fight a decisive battle with the Orientals. A general looked unconvinced.

The other generals also nodded one after another. It was too cowardly to run away in ashes. They don't want to be cowards.

Mikhail shook his head: "This is not an escape, and even more so cowardice, but to preserve strength." Once war breaks out, the Northern Fleet and Black Sea Fleet of the Imperial Navy will send the main reinforcements. At that time, we will have the strength of the navy that crushes the Orientals, and we will naturally be able to win this battle at the lowest cost. Instead of fighting with the Orientals to lose both, or even being defeated by the Orientals, why not preserve our strength first?

It is also clear to everyone that the strength of the Oriental people is not so weak. At least, the current Pacific Fleet is absolutely unlikely to be an opponent of the Orientals. Or rather, relying on the Pacific Fleet alone, there is no chance of victory at all!"

The generals were silent, and they had to admit that with the current strength of the Pacific Fleet of the Tsarist Imperial Navy, I am afraid that it was really not a match for the Oriental people at all.

In terms of battleships alone, the Fuji-class battleships of the Toyo surpassed any battleship of the Pacific Fleet.

A total of two Fuji-class battleships were built, modeled on the majestic battleships of the Sun Never Sets Empire, with a standard displacement of nearly 13,000 tons and a full load displacement of more than 15,000 tons, equipped with two twin 40 times caliber 305 mm main guns, 10 single 152 mm rapid-fire guns, 20 43-caliber 47-mm rapid-fire guns and 433-caliber 47-mm rapid-fire guns. Maximum speed, 18.3 knots.

In addition, the four Shikijima-class battleships of the Toyo were more powerful. Standing displacement, nearly 15,000 tons, full load displacement, nearly 18,000 tons. It is equipped with two twin 40 caliber 305 mm guns, 1440 x caliber 152 mm rapid-fire guns, 20 40 caliber 76 mm rapid-fire guns, 12 47-mm rapid-fire guns. Maximum speed 18 knots.

These six battleships of the Oriental are all battleships that have just been commissioned. Compared with the ten battleships of the Pacific Fleet of the Tsarist Imperial Navy, even in terms of numbers, it was inferior. However, in terms of performance, it has an absolute advantage.

In addition, the Imperial Navy of the East also had great advantages in armored cruisers. (Read violent novels, go on Feilu Fiction Network!)

With a standard displacement of 9,700 tons, a full load displacement of more than 11,000 tons, it is equipped with two twin 40 caliber 203 mm guns, 1440 times caliber 152 mm rapid-fire guns, 12 40 caliber 80 mm rapid-fire guns, eight 47-mm rapid-fire guns, and two Asama-class armored cruisers with a maximum speed of 21.5 knots.

With a standard displacement of 9,600 tons, a full load displacement of more than 10,000 tons, it is equipped with two twin 40 caliber 203 mm guns, 12 40 times caliber 152 mm rapid-fire guns, 12 40 caliber 80 mm rapid-fire guns, 12 47-mm rapid-fire guns, and the armored cruiser Yakumo with a maximum speed of 20.5 knots.

With a quasi-displacement of more than 9,300 tons and a full load displacement of more than 10,000 tons, the standard (Nonuohao) is equipped with two twin 45 times caliber 203 mm main guns, 12 40 times caliber 152 mm rapid-fire guns, 12 40 times caliber 80 mm rapid-fire guns, 12 47-mm rapid-fire guns, and the armored cruiser Azuma with a maximum speed of 20 knots.

With a standard displacement of more than 9,700 tons, a full load displacement of more than 11,000 tons, it is equipped with two twin 45 times caliber 203 mm main guns, 1440 times caliber 152 mm rapid-fire guns, 12 40 caliber 80 mm rapid-fire guns, eight 47 mm rapid-fire guns, and a maximum speed of 20.8 knots Izumo-class armored cruisers for two shops.

It can be said that the Pacific Fleet of the Imperial Russian Navy, not only in terms of battleships, but also in terms of armored cruisers, was completely inferior.

Under such circumstances, nature can only avoid its edge.
