Vladivostok-Port Arthur. Chernov A.B.

The brutal marine confrontation in the Far East approached a decisive fracture. If Russian sailors will be able to unite the squadrons of Makarov, Chukhnin and Rudnev, collecting a ship's group on the raids of Port Arthur, numerically and qualitatively superior to the connected fleet of the admiral of the one, there will be practically no prospects for winning the war of the Japanese. On the eastern coast of the Land of the Rising Sun on the enemy’s trade communications, Admiral Bezobrazov’s boards are conducted by cruising operations using the secret anchor parking of the islands of the Mariana Archipelago and coal from the steamers of the German company Albert Ballin. Losses of ships, their cargo and the cost of freight, which have taken off to heaven, promise catastrophic consequences to the island state. Her army in Manchuria is not defeated. Although the sober heads in Tokyo already perfectly understand that in the existing situation, the war is lost completely and irrevocably, due to the Samurai persistence of the imperial generals, combat operations continue with growing bitterness.
