DBH 40 - The Russo-Japanese War Part 2 - Port Arthur, Yalu River, Nanshan, and the Yellow Sea

Jake, Eric, and Cameron open continue their three-part series of the Russo-Japanese War with an in-depth discussion of the early battles, including the surprise attack on Port Arthur, and the battles of Yalu River, Nanshan, and the Yellow Sea.

Russia will depend on overwhelming force, through their army and navy, but both are in the west and will require time to travel the length of the Trans-Siberian Railway or by sea from St. Petersburg. Meanwhile, the Japanese use a vast and sophisticated intelligence network and new, bold tactics to strike at Russia's holdings on the Liaodong Peninsula.
