Can anyone assist with this: Did Blucher arrive on the Vorovsky on October 7th or 8th at Guangzhou in China? I have a reference that he arrived in October, and travel was only by ship. In a Chinese source I have found a reference that the Vorovsky did not travel alone but as part of a fleet. Can anyone add or clarify this? Many thanks in advance.

Many thanks Sarhang. I see where this is still a very undetermined subject. Is there a chronology of his movements? Preferably with names of ships?
