"Reporting to the Commander-in-Chief, Sergei sent a telegram that after nearly an hour of fierce fighting, the 15th Cavalry Division of Sergey defeated the 20th Infantry Division and the 8000th Infantry Division of the First Army of the Soviet Russian Eastern Front with three cavalry regiments. , the division commanders Chekov and Berklov were captured, the political commissars of the two divisions were killed, nearly 8000 enemies were wiped out, and nearly [-] were captured.

Now the Sergei cavalry has arrived in the town of Sterlitamak to join forces with Li Fugui's cavalry battalion. It is a pity that Tukhachevsky withdrew south with an infantry division two hours ago, leaving one of them to clean up the battlefield. The cavalry regiment had also withdrawn an hour ago!Whereabouts unknown! "Tian Jun, chief of staff of the war room, rushed in excitedly with a telegram he had just received.

"Ha, Sergey's cavalry divisions have a good combat effectiveness! Three regiments have eaten up two divisions of the opponent. This is a brilliant result. Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief, do you think it is necessary to catch up with the third infantry division of the Ufa First Army?" Going to Sterlitamak Town?" Taro Utsunomiya, deputy chief of staff of the coalition forces and commander of the Japanese Third Army, said with a smile on his face.

"Well, that's really good news. I have to give him credit. Sergey is a pretty good Russian general. Unexpectedly, one morning his cavalry division ran nearly 70 kilometers, not only captured Ma Xin alive in the Second Army, They also wiped out two infantry divisions of Tukhachevsky's First Army, and it seems that the combat effectiveness of the Russian Cossack cavalry is also quite impressive!" Wang Geng was also overjoyed when he heard the news, the weather has not improved, and the coalition air force is now It was the third batch of planes dispatched, but when they reached the town of Sterlitamak, they couldn't see the ground at all, so they could only hover and wait helplessly. Unexpectedly, Sergey's three cavalry regiments actually took care of Tukhachevsky Yes, this is really gratifying!

"Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, the cavalry battalion of Li Mingzhong's Department of the coalition army also fought well. They defended the town with a battalion of troops, not only slowing down the enemy's footsteps, but also relying on their position and firepower to repel the enemy's many attacks and wiped out at least one regiment. If you want me to say that the victory of Sergey's troops is inseparable from the persistence of Li Fugui, the cavalry battalion in Sterlitamak town! He should also be credited!" Utsunomiya Taro did not forget to take a picture Are the horses and sedan chairs of the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces carried by everyone?

Tian Jun, the chief staff officer of the war room here, was obviously also distracted by the excellent fighters of the frontline generals, and he couldn't help but ask for a battle, "Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, Satoshi Ishihara is leading a cavalry regiment in the north, and Sato Itagaki is also here." Sun Liangcheng is commanding a cavalry regiment, and I request that I be sent to Kumertau to command the Japanese cavalry regiment there, and go north to catch Tukhachevsky and catch him by surprise!"

Hata Jun is now the rank of the commander. He knows in his heart that Wu Peifu, the deputy chief of staff of the coalition army, the commander of the Third National Army, and the commander of the Ufa Central Group, has not captured the enemy's main force and is in a hurry to get angry, so he does not intend to go Bavley served as Wu Peifu's deputy on the front line, but thought of Kumertau to command the Japanese cavalry regiment there to go north to clean up Tukhachevsky.

Nima, Sergey's three cavalry regiments were able to clean up the two infantry divisions of the First Army and captured the commander of the Second Army, Ma Xin. He didn't believe that he would not be able to deal with Tuhache with a Japanese cavalry regiment of 5000 people. Lewski is left with an infantry division and the remainder of a cavalry regiment!If you can catch Tukhachevsky, the former commander of the Southern Group of the Soviet Russian Eastern Front Army, it will be more glorious than any commander of the Soviet Red Army on the right bank of the Volga River!

"Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, please be sure to agree to Commander Hatatoshi's request. Seeing that this battle is almost over, the Japanese Army of the Allied Forces has not yet had a chance to play and perform. This time, Tukhachevsky must not be allowed to escape. Yes! The Sergei Cavalry Division is now at the end of its strength, and there will be no rest and supplements for a while to catch up with Tukhachevsky, please give the Japanese Imperial Army a chance to perform!" see Utsunomiya Taro here Hata Jun asked for a fight, and hurriedly helped him beat the side drum.

"Major General Tian Jun, you are the chief staff officer of my war room. If you leave the headquarters and go to command, who will clean up the mess of the coalition headquarters for me?" To go down to fight, of course, the Japanese army of the coalition has no chance to exert its strength. He knows that Ishihara Waner is leading a regiment of Japanese cavalry madly in Almedier. They searched for the remnants of the Soviet Red Army in the east of Vsk, but they couldn't find the rest of Heveshin and Yankovgay. The entire 7000-strong Red Army seemed to have disappeared.

"Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, this is not a problem. The staff officers in the war room can do their jobs very well, and...and you have His Excellency Utsunomiya as your deputy chief of staff, so you don't have to worry about the staff being in a mess. What's wrong!" Tian Jun cast a look of help to Utsunomiya Taro.

"Aha, Your Excellency Taro, if there is no Tian Jun in the communications and orders in the war room, can you help me deal with it? I am used to being the master of the shopkeeper, and I don't have that for me to personally lead the staff Be patient!" Wang Geng turned around and said to his assistant with a smile.

"Uh... this is not a problem. The staff officers can complete their work very well. Besides, I will look after them for you, so there is nothing wrong with keeping them!" Utsunomiya Taro said helplessly, if he wanted to talk about the Japanese Army Department The staff of the General Staff Headquarters is much more talented than the national army, so although the main force of the coalition forces is the National Third Army, but in the coalition headquarters, the staff in the war room are mainly Utsunomiya Taro from his Japanese third army. Among those selected by the military headquarters, there are many talented students who graduated from the Japanese Army University.

Although these Japanese staff officers in the war room of the Allied Forces Command are a bit inferior to Jun Hata, Wanji Ishihara, and Seishiro Itagaki, compared to the national staff officers brought by Jiang Hongyu who are mainly graduates of Baoding Military Academy , the various staff operations and capabilities are stronger!

"Success! Kekumertau is 220 kilometers away from Ufa, and nearly 100 kilometers away from the town of Sterlitamak. How do you get there? Most of the roads have been washed away by the heavy rain last night. Cars and armored vehicles You may not even be able to run!" Wang Geng finally let go, but asked how to get there.

"This is no problem at all. I can take the dh4 reconnaissance plane to go. Even if the weather is bad, I will fly over the clouds and wait until I am near Kumertau. I will just parachute down from the co-pilot position!" Captain Hatatoshi is obviously full of confidence It seems that as long as Wang Geng is willing to let him lead troops to pursue Tukhachevsky, all other difficulties will be out of the question.

Hearing this, Wang Geng looked at Jun Hata, the guy lowered his head as if he was begging you, then looked at Taro Utsunomiya, the guy looked at Jun Hata with admiration and nodded, it seemed that he was preventing this kid from going. If that's the case, Jun Hata might really be able to forget about food and drink, and even play seppuku.

"Okay! Send a report to Sergey and Li Fugui, and give them awards. In addition, Sergei's troops will temporarily stay in Sterlitamak Town to take time to rest and wait for replenishment of food and ammunition. Li Fugui's cavalry battalion... can Send a small force to track and reconnaissance the direction and traces of Tukhachevsky's retreat. The coalition command will airborne Colonel Hatatoshi to Kumertau to command the Japanese cavalry regiment there to go north, and strive to capture Tukhachevsky in the next few days. Catch Khachevsky!" Wang Geng finally made a decision!

"Then what about the [-]rd Infantry Division of the Ufa First Army? It was originally planned to have them reach the town of Stellitamak before [-]:[-] p.m. Now it seems that there is no need to continue to strengthen the forces in that direction. Should they be told to move westward? " Utsunomiya Taro mentioned this.

"In the case of the Third Infantry Division of the Ufa First Army, we can divide our forces and send a brigade to Sterlitamak to take over the defense of Sergey's cavalry. There are nearly ten thousand Soviet Russian Red Army prisoners there, and one is not easy to bomb. It is troublesome to send an infantry brigade there, but for the other brigade, tell them to move westward at their current positions and prepare to join the pursuit and encirclement of the [-]st Army, which should be regarded as a training exercise!" Wang said. Geng knew that unless Yegorov's troops in the Third Army also retreated to the southeast, most of them had already gone to the southwest, and the Ufa First Army might not be able to catch up.

"By the way, ask the First Infantry Division of the Ufa First Army to send a brigade to Petrovich to receive prisoners and wounded, let Petrovich free up, and order him to lead the Fourth Cavalry Division to search southwest. It's almost time to rest!" Wang Geng continued to order.

"Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, Petrovich's cavalry troops have fought several battles in a row, and their food and ammunition have been consumed a lot. If they go out again without replenishment, their combat effectiveness may drop drastically!" Tian Jun reminded.

"Ask the brigade of the [-]st Ufa Infantry Division to give them the food and ammunition they have in hand when accepting prisoners and wounded! In addition, ask the engineering regiment to hurry up and repair the road, and take Ufa to Bavley, and Bavley to the south Get through the car transportation line as soon as possible! Send the food and ammunition there!" Wang Geng frowned slightly.

The Battle of Ufa has been fought to this extent. With the continuous pursuit and advancement of the ground troops, the troops are becoming more and more scattered, and the pressure on logistical support is also increasing, especially when so many Soviet Russian Red Army have been captured. , one is not good, maybe the captives can't eat, or if the lightly and seriously wounded die too much due to lack of medical treatment and medicine, riots in the Soviet Russian prisoner-of-war camps are really not impossible!
