It has been noted that the Russian Navy has shyly sought to comply with the maritime military strategic principles for a naval victory by attempting to bring together two of its largest squadrons (Baltic and Pacific) in the area most likely to clash with the defiant Japanese Navy, but understands this action was delayed in time, as it should have been executed before the fall of Port Arthur and the destruction of the First Pacific Squadron. On that occasion, relying even more on the Vladivostok Squadron, his situation would have been much more favorable and the outcome of the decisive Battle of Tsushima (1905) could have been different. In the scenario of the wargame that will be used, generally considering the seven and a half months of the voyage, the Second Pacific Squadron will have reached the Yellow Sea in the first half of December, before the final fall of Port Arthur. With this prediction, the First Squadron would not have been forced to leave Port Arthur in August for Vladivostok, and this harbor squadron would also have been preserved, so that together with the Third Pacific Squadron would all attempt to assemble as Russian Pacific Fleet and fight the decisive battle against the Japanese Combined Fleet.
