With the fall of Lukavaya, the combat operations of the Iran Front Army of the Chinese Empire and the Third Front Army to attack Vladivostok from east to west were completed, and the city of Vladivostok was completely in the hands of the "China Team". After the main forces of the two major fronts met, the Second Front continued to attack the Agathelid Peninsula Fortress on the Amur Peninsula, while the Third Front Army was responsible for attacking the Qiulijin Peninsula Fortress.

The airships kept throwing gasoline burning, and the frightened crowd rushed into the Russian army's refugee artillery hole in the fortress like crazy. The Second Front and Third Front Army of the Chinese Empire concentrated more than 2,000 cannons and used the landmarks on the combat map seized at the Second River Fortress Command to accurately send the artillery shells to various key parts of the Russian army.

"Bang bang bang bang!"

A series of shells slammed into the fortifications and exploded, and earth and rocks suddenly shot out, with sharp flames and smoke. The violent explosion instantly killed and injured the Russian soldiers and civilians around. In the blink of an eye, there were corpses around, and countless bones were broken and blood were overflowing.

As evening approaches, the wind is getting stronger and stronger, and the fires in the Russian fortress continue to decline, and soon spread everywhere, like a sea of ​​fire.

Originally, Duan Qirui and Lianghuadian were preparing to continue to use poison gas to attack, but the north wind was very strong and the wind direction was unstable, so they could not use poison gas to fight.

However, with the detailed defense map of the Russian fortress, the Chinese Emperor's artillery shells can accurately strike key areas of the Russian fortress, causing heavy casualties and injuries to the Russian army, and they have been passively beaten, with almost no power to fight back.

Just after six o'clock, it was almost dark, Duan Qirui and Lianghuadian discussed it and thought that they would give the Russian army another chance and persuade them to surrender.

At 6:12, the three armies and air forces of the Chinese Empire stopped attacking. Duan Qirui sent people to repair the telephone line to the Qiulijin Peninsula Fortress, and then asked Alekseyev to surrender by phone.

However, Alekseev decided not to surrender, so he immediately refused. However, Duan Qirui did not give up, but ordered someone to notify Alekseev.

"If you do not surrender, you will massacre the city after capturing the fortress."

Alekseev was silent immediately. Seeing that there was a chance to persuade him to surrender, Duan Qirui sent people to shout in Russian in front of the fortress, saying that if Alekseev did not surrender, he would massacre the city.

This move caused a huge shock. The Russian people on the fortress suddenly exploded like a camp. Huge panic spread rapidly, and the sounds of demanding Alekseyev surrender came one after another, and it became louder and louder.

What was even more panicked than the Russian civilians in Vladivostok was the Russian fortress soldiers. They knew better than anyone that Vladivostok could no longer defend. From the moment the second river fortress was lost, they already knew that Vladivostok could no longer defend. Because the cannons in various parts of Vladivostok fortress were basically facing the outside, the second river fortress, Lujiawaya fortress, Qiulijin Peninsula fortress, and Agathelid Peninsula fortress were like the walls of a city. Once one of them was captured, the other could not defend at all.

Even though they knew that they could not defend themselves, they would not surrender, which would mean death. Moreover, for more than ten days, the Russian soldiers had already seen the powerful attack power of the Chinese Emperor. They were scared by the three-dimensional artillery fire strikes from the navy, army, and air force. Therefore, the calls for surrender from the Russian soldiers became increasingly high.

External and internal pressure forced Alekseyev's attitude to gradually soften, especially the Governor of Amur Province, Gorodekov, demanded Alekseyev surrender on the grounds of protecting Russian civilians, and most of these civilians were families of the Russian army. Therefore, Gorodekov's speech received strong support from the Russian army and civilians.

Alekseyev then consulted behind closed doors with Chief of Staff Klosky.

Alekseyev sighed: "Losing Vladivostok will be a heavy blow to the empire, and it will also affect the comprehensive counterattack plan of His Majesty the Emperor of the Empire."

Klosky said: "From the current situation of the enemy and us, we can't wait for the sun tomorrow!"

Alekseyev frowned and said, "Do you mean to surrender?"

Closky smiled bitterly and said, "Commander, if you do not surrender, the enemy will be in a foreign city. This not only scares the people, but also the soldiers of the fortress defenders are panic. They are afraid and have no courage to fight again."

Alekseyev said ruthlessly: "Soldiers should serve their country with death. Those timid people are not worthy of being emperors and should be shot!"

Klosky sighed: "Mr. Commander, I have to remind you that if you go and shoot those timid officers and soldiers now, the soldiers will mutiny."

Alekseyev said angrily: "Will they not mutiny if they were not shot? Gorodekov, a coward and bastard, kept inciting the soldiers to surrender, and I really wanted to kill him immediately.

At this moment, the door was suddenly kicked open, and Gorodekov rushed into Alekseyev's office with a dozen senior officers and soldiers.

Alekseyev was furious and shouted: "What are you doing? Are you rebelling?

Get out right away!"

Gorodekov snorted coldly: "Commander, please forgive me for being ignorant. I have reached an agreement with your subordinates. In order to avoid the enemy's retaliation, we all agree to surrender."

Alekseev pointed at Gorodekov's nose and scolded: "You are just a coward, you are afraid of death!"

Gorodekov snorted coldly: "That's right! I'm a coward, I'm afraid of death, but I'm also thinking about more than 100,000 innocent civilians and more than 100,000 soldiers in the fortress. Since we can no longer hold on, why do we have to keep it up with face? You said I'm a coward, don't you want to use the blood of the soldiers to fulfill your so-called honor? Do you know more abominable than me who surrendered?"

Gorodekov's words were like a knife, and Alekseyev's body was so exhausted that he was speechless.

Chief of Staff Klosky asked: "Loulodekov, what do you want? Is this a military admonition?"

Gorodekov glanced at Major General Marlow next to him. Mr. Marlow was willing to hand a surrender book in his hand to Klosky.

"Please sign with your Excellency Commander!"

Klosky took the surrender book, read it roughly, and then looked at Gorodekov and a group of senior officers, who had no choice but to hand the surrender book to Alekseev.

After Alekseyev took the surrender book and read it, he immediately tore the surrender book to pieces in anger.

"Let me sign, you dream!"

Gorodekov laughed a few times, then took out a surrender book that was exactly the same as before, and said, "I had expected you to be like this long ago, so I prepared several."

Alexeyev was so angry that he shivered. He pointed at Gorodekov and couldn't say a word. As a result, he was so angry that he vomited blood and fainted.

"Captain of Staff, since the Commander has fainted, please sign it?"

Klosky shook his head and said, "I won't sign!"

Gorodekov sneered: "I know your difficulties. Whether you sign or not, you will be blamed for losing the Vladivostok fortress. Rather than being hanged by your own people, you should die in battle and get honor, right?"

Klosky said: "It's good that you know. As commanders, there's nothing we can do about this!"

"Then I'm sorry!"

As soon as Gorodekov made his eyes, Marlow shot Klosky to death. Then Marlow took out the seals of Alekseyev and Klosky, stamped them on the surrender book, and imitated the handwriting of the two and signed.

Subsequently, Major General Marlow sent someone to submit the surrender letter to Duan Qirui, the Supreme Commander of the Second Front of the Chinese Empire, and surrendered to the Chinese Emperor's team in the name of Alekseyev and Klosky.

That night, Gorodekov went to the Governor's Office as a negotiator. There, Duan Qirui represented the First War Zone of the Chinese Empire to negotiate with Gorodekov. The negotiations were unconditional, but Duan Qirui promised that as long as the Russian army handed over the fortress intact, he would give up the massacre and treat prisoners of war with preferential treatment.

After the two sides agreed, Gorodekov returned to the fortress and made preparations for the retreat with senior Russian officers such as Malo, including counting the troops, weapons and ammunition.

Duan Qirui clearly emphasized that if he cannot fully accept the Vladivostok fortress, he will not give up the massacre of the city. Integrated acceptance of the Vladivostok fortress, the most important one is to accept a large amount of weapons, ammunition and other materials hoarded in the Vladivostok fortress.

Although the Russian officers such as Malo felt very distressed, they wanted to destroy the weapons and ammunition depot before surrender, but they gave up after final measurement.

Early the next morning, Malo and other Russian generals led the Russian army to gather in Huamute Plaza. More than 90,000 Russian troops, including the wounded and sick, surrendered to the Emperor of China.

Duan Qirui and Liang Huadian attended the Russian army's surrender ceremony. When asked why Xin Xiao Keseyev did not appear, Russian generals and other Russian soldiers said that General Alekseev had already severed his loyalty to the Tsar.

Duan Qirui was a little disappointed with General Alekseyev's death. He originally planned to personally humiliate the Russian army's morale in the future. However, although he failed to do so, Marlow gave General Alekseyev's command knife to Duan Qirui, which was a small compensation.

After the Russian surrender ceremony in the Vladivostok fortress, Russian prisoners of war were locked up in the Vladivostok military camp. Russian civilians in the fortress were released and allowed to return to their homes in Vladivostok urban areas and allowed them to leave Vladivostok.

Holding the account book handed over by Gorodekov, Lianghuadian excitedly said to Duan Qirui: "Old Duan, we have made a fortune this time, look!"

Duan Qirui took the account book in Lianghua Palace and opened it. He couldn't help but be surprised. The material reserves of Vladivostok Fortress were amazing, with more than 500,000 guns and bullets, more than 300,000 gunpowder, more than 900 tons of gunpowder, 200,000 tons of grain reserves, 13.3 million rubles of military pay, and countless other substances such as medicines, oil and salt, military uniforms, and the total value of all seized substances exceeded 200,000 dragon coins.

"The officials of the General Logistics Department have always said that we are prodigal sons. This time I showed them the orders, I think they should shut up."

"That's it!"

The two laughed loudly, they were so beautiful that they were so snot...
