In August 1918, the Beijing Anfu Congress opened and Xu Shichang was elected as president. Replacing Feng Guozhang, Duan Qirui also resigned from his post as general manager and turned to behind-the-scenes control.

The contradiction between the Zhi and Anhui system is no longer reconciled!

The Fengtian also saw its hope of taking over Beijing.

In the southwest, Guangzhou Law Protection Revolutionary Military Government condemns one of them today and refuses to admit one of them tomorrow, but there is no real movement for a long time, and its attitude also makes people suspicious.

〖China's situation is unpredictable, and a conflict is also happening quietly in Temple Street.

In order to strengthen the defense of the Sino-Russian border river, China's Jianghang fleet raced against time. In early Kouyue, it arrived at Miao Street and entered the Heilongjiang "Jing'an" ship to return south. The fleet command was handed over to Chen Shiying, the captain of the "Jiangheng" gunship.

China Resources took back the right to sail for Sanjiang, which was naturally something that the Russians and Japanese were unwilling to see.

The Chinese fleet must rush to Harbin, the headquarters of the "Jilin Heijiang Defense Fleet" before the Heilongjiang freezes.

"Boom boom"

A few cannons alarmed the fleet commander Chen Shiying, and Hua hurried to the deck. Before he could ask questions, a shell exploded not far away. The huge water column that splashed into the air and fell down again.

"What's going on?"

"Report to the commander, the Russian White Guards, and the Japanese fired at me at the same time!" "What? The Russians and the Japanese fired at me together?"

"Yes, they asked our fleet to return immediately and not go west!"

"Bastard!" Chen Shiying said with a deep face: "Tell them that we are the fleet of the Republic of China and are going to Harbin now, no one can stop us."

However, the Russians and Japanese themselves seemed to have not seen Chen Shiying's request at all, and the shells were still flying in crazily...

Chen Shiying looked at all this angrily. He now wanted to order all the cannons on the ship to fire together and teach the group of bastards on the opposite side a lesson! But he had to restrain himself!

His own fleet only had three gunboats and an armed tugboat. In addition to the artillery fire that was being fired in a stunning manner, there were four destroyers and a cruiser nearby, which was much stronger than himself!

The road ahead was blocked by artillery fire. The nearby temple street was filled with Russian White Guards and Japanese troops. Three gunboats and an armed tugboat were as precarious as food in the mouths of a group of evil wolf!

Reclaiming the right to sail in Sanjiang was a repeated deed before departure. No matter what difficulties he encountered, he had to do it. This is a symbol of China's exercise of sovereignty!

"Order" Lijie, shoot at the Russians once, do not aim at the target, repeat again, do not aim at the target!" Chen Shiying finally made up his mind.

He didn't want to hit any target. This time he fired a gun, just to warn the Russians and the Japanese that the Chinese fleet was just exercising its legitimate rights!

When fighting the Russians, not fighting against Japan himself is also Chen Shiying's smart place. He cannot leave any verbal words for Japan himself.

The shells on the Lijie roared out and fell on the sea far from the shore position. The water column rose like a green dragon, hovered in the air for a while, and then "drilled into the sea."

The demonstrative shelling was effective, and the bombardment of the Russians and Japanese on the shore stopped.

The Chinese fleet fought back? The Chinese fleet really dared to fight back? The Russians were stunned, and the Japanese were also confused.

Since the outbreak of the Russian War, the Chinese people's reactions were surprising. First, the Beiyang government, which was internal and external troubles, sent troops to protect the safety of overseas Chinese: Then, this small fleet actually forcibly bombarded the enemy despite the danger of the destruction of the entire army! When did the Chinese people's attitude become so tough?

Although there were only three small gunboats on the opposite side, the Russians and the Japanese did not dare to really sink them. China is also one of the interfering forces, one of the participating countries, and one of the "allies".

Once the fleet of "allies" sinks, it will inevitably cause serious dissatisfaction among the United States, Britain, France and other countries!

The two sides instantly formed a confrontation.

Chen Shiying was also uneasy. Although he captured the psychology of Bai Weijun and the Japanese army, he thought that they did not dare to sink themselves, what if they were angry and embarrassed? His fleet was definitely not their opponent!

"Commander, we find the fleet behind us!"

"What?"

"Discover the fleet behind the side!"

"Continue to observe!"

"Yes!" "Report, two Japanese destroyers are approaching me quickly!"

Chen Shiying's head exploded with a "boom"!

In the direction of Temple Street, the fleet of "Japan" stationed there was dispatched!

"Report to the commander, the Japanese army asked our fleet to stop the ship for inspection!"

"What?" Chen Shiying thought he had heard it wrong: "Stop the ship for inspection?" Then he said angrily: "Tell them that we are the Jiheijiang Defense Fleet of the Republic of China, and they have no right to order us to stop the ship for inspection!" "Commander, the Japanese army's ultimatum, stop the ship for inspection, this is an ultimatum!"

Anger and pain made Chen Shiying's face twist together!

This is the "alliance" and this is the "alliance"! I have even lost the right to exercise a country's navy!

"No!" Chen Shiying bit his mouth tightly, and said gritting his teeth: "Never! Tell them again that we are the Jiheijiang Defense Fleet of the Republic of China. If they dare to fire at us, it means going to war on the Republic of China!"

On the shore, the confrontation began on the sea. The Japanese did not dare to fire rashly. Once it really sank and injured any ship in the Chinese fleet, it would inevitably cause an uproar internationally, including the intervention of European and American powers.

Europe, the United States and Japan have already fought openly and secretly in the interests of China. Now the United States, Britain and France have freed up their hands from the European battlefield. Japan will not give them any excuses to intervene publicly!

At 1 pm, a cruiser from Japan arrived. At 1:15 pm, a Russian cannon on the shore also arrived. At this time, three gunboats and an armed tugboat of Chen Shiying's fleet were surrounded, and this small fleet was at risk of sinking at any time.

Chen Shiying was desperate, but was full of grief and anger. The Russians and Japanese were constantly increasing their troops, and they were almost hitting stones with eggs. Where were their reinforcements?

Chen Shiying closed her eyes in pain...

"Commander, fleet, discover fleet!"

Chen Shiying sighed softly, is the Japanese fleet coming up again?

"Commander, look, look at that, our fleet, look at that, it is our fleet!" Chen Shiying opened his eyes at once, almost suspected that he had heard it wrong.

Our fleet? Where do we have fleets?

He raised his telescope and looked at the sea in the distance and "boomed", like a thunder blew on his head. At that moment, Chen Shiying's hands even began to tremble.

Fleet! Fleet! Fleet! Fleet! Fleet is flying at the highest point: the Republic of China, the national flag of five sè!

A fleet of two cruisers and a destroyer is flying amid the national flag!

The sailors of the Chinese fleet suddenly burst into a shocking cheer!

National flag, 〖China flag! The national flag is flying on the sea!

China is a national flag!

Here comes, here comes, finally! Your reinforcements have finally arrived!

The national flag illuminates the sea like a lightning bolt in the dark night!

〖Japanese myself and the Russians were also obviously at a loss. They had already gained the absolute advantage, with the arrival of two cruisers and a destroyer, their power was suddenly broken!

Guangzhou's revolutionary military government, the flagship "Hairong" of the overseas Chinese protection fleet.

"Report to the commander, our ship enters the combat waters!"

"Send a signal." Zhang Xiaoyue lit his pipe and took a deep breath: "Our fleet is for Guangzhou, the Republic of China's overseas Chinese protection fleet, and performs the mission of protecting overseas Chinese. Any provocative behavior of Lou's armor is considered to declare war on the Republic of China!"

"Commander, do you want to prepare for combat?"

"Just put on a look." Zhang Xiaoyue said with his pipe in his mouth: "The Japanese don't dare to fight, and the Russians have no strength to fight. Although justice and justice are a vain thing, everyone still has to worry about it in this situation." The sudden arrival of the Guangzhou Overseas Chinese Protection Fleet caused a huge change in the situation of the confrontation.

Neither side dared to take action first, nor did anyone dare to fight.

The confrontation continued until 5:30 pm, and the situation finally took a sub-turn.

Perhaps after receiving some instructions, the Japanese ship began to voluntarily evacuate from the confrontation sea.

Chen Shiying breathed a sigh of relief.

A smile appeared on Zhang Xiaoyue's face.

The armed confrontation between China, Japan and Russia ended with the victory of the Chinese fleet.

Such victory was accidental, but also full of necessity. From the beginning, the Japanese side believed that relying on force could intimidate China and force it to stay in Temple Street, but they did not expect to meet a tough Chinese fleet commander Chen Shiying.

Then, another commander of the Overseas Protection Fleet, Zhang Xiaoyue, who was equally tough, also arrived at the confrontation sea in time, which immediately made the Japanese's wishful thinking fail.

The attitude shown by the Chinese fleet was surprising, and the Japanese fleet, which had not received any combat orders, did not dare to use force rashly, and no one could bear this responsibility.

The joint assistance of Zhang Xiaoyue and Chen Shiying allowed the weak Chinese Navy to achieve a beautiful victory!

"Commander" Jiang Heng, the gunboat sent a signal, thanking our fleet for its full support, long live the Republic of China!"

Zhang Xiaoyue was silent for a moment: "Tell Commander Chen Shiying, please ask Commander Chen to quickly advance to Harbin. Our fleet will undertake the escort mission and wait for an opportunity to rescue overseas Chinese. Long live the Republic of China!"

When the Hairong ship slowly approached, the soldiers on the "Jiangheng" and all the soldiers on the gunboat of the "Lijie" raised their hands together.

Zhang Xiaoyue looked up and saw that although they were not the same military uniforms, they were all the same as those flying at the bow of the ship: the national flag of the Republic of China 5th National Flag!!!
