1918年7月14ri7：00布卢祖克乌拉尔第三骑兵师司令部

"Reporting to the division commander, the scouting cavalry found a large force of the Soviet Red Army in the northwest. One of our cavalry companies patrolling on the periphery was almost made dumplings. Now the troops are fighting and retreating. There is only one cavalry in front of the enemy. The strength of the division!" The chief of staff of the [-]rd Ural Cavalry Division and the commander of the [-]st Brigade Kevsky broke into the house where the division commander Nerikov lived, sweating profusely.

"What? Are you really coming to our side? That's great! Hurry up and assemble your team, enter the position and prepare to fight!" Nerikov, the bearded division commander, jumped up from the bed with a carp. These days, his third cavalry division Lien Chan Lian Jie, after starting from Orenburg, took down Solochinsk, Bluzuk and Nevtegorsk in a devastating manner, and was regarded as the most prominent Russian cavalry division of the coalition forces.

"No way, Commander, we only have a brigade of less than 5000 people, and the cavalry in front of the opponent must have at least 9000 cavalry in one division, and according to the enemy situation report from the Allied Command, this enemy is likely to be the Soviet Russian Southern Front Army Group Army Yegorov's troops, in that case, there will be at least 3 infantry behind them, how can we fight to the death with only one cavalry brigade!"

**While urging the orderly to quickly put on the boots and tie the armed belt for the master, he said anxiously.

"C'mon, Yegorov was waiting. Pass my order. Both regiments will enter the preset positions and send a report to the Ufa coalition headquarters. Our army encountered Yegorov's main attack in Bluzuk. The opponent invested The strength is at least one cavalry division, and there is likely to be infantry following behind, requesting the Ufa coalition air force to dispatch urgently for support, and also send a report to the two cavalry regiments of the fifth brigade, telling them to set off immediately and move closer to Bluzuk! How about not eating the side dishes that are delivered to your door!"

It was said that Nerikov shook off **Nevsky's hand and strode out to the yard. The guards had already brought the horses in a hurry. The time has come, pass my order, the first regiment and the second regiment all enter the position and prepare to fight, the guard battalion comes with me!"

At this time, the gunshots from the northwest direction became more and more dense. Nerikov pulled the rein of the horse, turned his head and said to the **** who followed,

"Chief of Staff, you are in charge of commanding the defense line of the No. [-] Brigade. You are absolutely not allowed to retreat. Our firepower and artillery are much stronger than the opponent's. You also read the Ufa battle report yesterday. Sergei's cavalry regiment killed the opponent's two infantry brigades. I have the strength of two regiments here, so we will enter the position according to our plan before and rely on defense to drag the opponent! I will take the guard battalion up for a while to find out the situation! Do you hear me!"

"Yes! Commander! Resolutely carry out your order!" At this time, Ivanovsky had no other ideas. If the commander wanted to fight, then he would fight. In the Ufa battle report yesterday, Li Fugui's cavalry battalion only relied on one The strength of the battalion held the town of Sterlitamak, resisted the enemy's assault of an infantry division and a cavalry brigade, and wiped out at least one cavalry regiment of the opponent.

The Sergey of the Second Ural Cavalry Army was even better. The three cavalry regiments were divided into two and wiped out the two infantry divisions of the Tukhachevsky First Army. Nima, no wonder the division commander Nerikov It screamed like chicken blood, the third brigade of the Ural Cavalry Division has two regiments of 5000 troops, if it is scared away by a Soviet Red Army cavalry division that has traveled hundreds of kilometers and is exhausted Well, from then on, there is really nothing to do in the coalition army!

Without waiting for this guy to ponder too much, the front division commander Nerikov can gallop out of the town with a division guard battalion of more than 400 people and go straight to the place where the gunshots are most concentrated in the northwest direction. Mud, ********sky looked up, although the weather is still not clear, the rain that has been falling last night has long since stopped, and the clouds do not seem to be as thick and low as yesterday, it seems that the Ufa Air Force may be able to dispatch .

Thinking of this, the guy felt confident, turned his head and shouted at the messengers behind him, ordering all the first and second regiments to enter the position, and the two artillery companies were deployed in the square in the center of the town, and the rest followed me!As he said that, he took the lead and went straight to the preset position.

Although it didn't take long to form into the coalition army, the Ural Cavalry Army was the first Russian unit equipped with coalition platoon and battalion mortars, Browning squad machine guns and M1 Garand semi-automatic cavalry rifles. The firepower of the third cavalry division Although the density is a bit worse than that of Li Mingzhong's National Mixed Cavalry Brigade, it is much stronger than the cavalry divisions of Sergey and Petrovich!

The third brigade of the Ural cavalry, each platoon is equipped with an m1917bra Browning squad machine gun and a two-door platoon 60mm mortar squad, and each cavalry squad is equipped with three m1 Garand semi-automatic cavalry rifles, Each company is equipped with an m1918a2 Browning air-cooled heavy machine gun, and each battalion is also equipped with an 8-gun 81mm caliber mortar platoon.

And each cavalry regiment is equipped with a 6-mounted mountain artillery company, equipped with 2 75mm caliber 4-type mountain cannons, and 75 4mm caliber [-]-type field artillery. At this moment, the first brigade has two artillery companies with a total of [-] mountain cannons. Eight field cannons, because the town of Bluzuke is also in a hilly area, and the terrain in the center of the town is the highest, so the square became the artillery position of the [-]st brigade.

Now that the division commander decided to fight, the chief of staff, Kevsky, calmed down at the moment. He seized the time to organize troops to enter the position to prepare for defense, and at the same time sent telegrams to the Ufa coalition forces, Orenburg, and Samara to inform them face-to-face. For the enemy's situation, first stick to it and wait for the reinforcements to arrive before your heart blossoms. This battle may be very promising!

The town of Buluzuk is also not big. The east side of the town is next to a big river, the Buzuluk River, and the west side is also a big river. The position of the 50st Brigade focuses on defending the north and south sides. Of course, if the enemy tries to cross the [-]-meter-wide If the river is more than three meters deep, the machine gun position on the river bank here can block fire very well, and the trenches are mainly dug on the north and south sides of the town. The strength of the two regiments to defend such a town depends on how they fight!
