Beiyang 1917

1918年7月20ri19：30萨马拉联军司令部

Wang Geng expressed his plan in one breath. After the army is reorganized, all the troops on the land of the Volga Federation will be included in the command and management system of the Allied Command. Neither the Volga Federation nor the Western Siberia Autonomous Government will have its own regular army. All existing and future newly established troops belong to the Allied Forces. :Reading novels.

"Mix and rebuild 8 army groups and 4 cavalry corps... I don't know if Your Excellency the Commander-in-Chief has any plans for the personnel arrangement of the army generals. It seems that we don't have so many suitable generals who can be appointed to so many army command positions at once. Go up." The person who spoke was the deputy chief of staff of the coalition forces, the commander of the Japanese army in the coalition forces, Army General Taro Utsunomiya.

This guy is actually very itchy in his heart. In a blink of an eye, the Russian troops in the coalition army can be expanded to 8 infantry armies and 4 cavalry armies, a total of 29 troops. What a problem. Looking at what the King of China means, maybe the Russian generals will lead the Russian troops.

"The direction of the future coalition's combat missions is mainly concentrated in the west. We temporarily remain neutral to the war between Soviet Russia and the Kolchak regime in the north. Anyway, this land now belongs to the Volga Federation, and the Volga Federation and Soviet Russia The Samara peace treaty has just been announced, and as for the generals of the new army after the reorganization, I am going to hear your suggestions!" Wang Geng said with a smile.

"Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, what's the difficulty? The Russian troops in the coalition contributed a lot to the Battle of Ufa, directly from the Russian generals of the First Ufa Army, the Second Army, the First Ural Cavalry Army, and the Ural Second Cavalry Army. It is enough to be promoted and appointed, and the Russian army is best led by Russian generals!"

It was Balajanov who was speaking, and the calculation in his heart was that the three cavalry divisions of the First Ural Cavalry Army were equipped with various detour troops of the coalition forces in the Battle of Ufa. They fought bravely and achieved brilliant results. It has won the unanimous approval of the Chinese generals who are in charge of commanding the various detour forces of the coalition forces.

In addition, in the later period, Balajanov was appointed as the commander of the Ufa First Army, and led 4 White Guard infantry divisions to participate in the second phase of the campaign. The pursuit and capture of prisoners is also considered to be established with the following 4 White Guard division commanders. In this way, the number of Russian troops theoretically under the command of Sergei Ivanovich Barayanov reached 7 divisions.

In fact, Pepelyaev only commanded 4 divisions of the Ufa Second Army, so Barayanov is confident that if the reorganized 21 infantry divisions and 8 cavalry divisions can be used to promote the original If the Russian general is in charge, then he, Balayanov, will steadily overpower Pepelyayev, and there may be a great chance of mixing with the commander-in-chief of the Russian forces of the coalition forces.

"Sergei Ivanovich, you seem to have forgotten that although the Russian troops fought well in the Battle of Ufa, they were commanded by Chinese generals in the coalition forces. The three Ural cavalry divisions were assigned to the three-way detour troops. Combat, and your Ufa First Army, including Petrovich and Sergey's Ural Cavalry Second Army, are all fighting under the command of Ufa Central Yang Group Commander Wu Peifu!"

Jiang Hongyu couldn't help frowning, and opened his mouth, but this guy didn't have the nerve to boast, so he put Wu Peifu, the group commander in the middle and late stages of the Ufa campaign, on the pole to talk about it.

But I have to say, of the three Ural cavalry divisions assigned to the detour troops, only the second cavalry division assigned to Jiang Hongyu has no use for it, but just like the Japanese cavalry regiment, there are many roads to run with flags and shouts , Tired enough, but there are very few opportunities for frontal combat, and the limelight has been snatched by the Chinese Armored Mixed Second Brigade.

As for the other two Ural cavalry divisions, the first cavalry division was assigned to Sun Liangcheng's troops. It had the longest roundabout time and the farthest distance. Fighting to Bolgar at the end, although the battle is not the most intense, but the road is the longest, and the force is definitely not small.

Not to mention the brilliant record of the Third Ural Cavalry Division in Buzuluk, it used a cavalry brigade with less than 5000 troops to block the repeated attacks of 42000 cavalry, the main force of the Yegorov Group Army of the Soviet Russian Red Army.

Moreover, relying only on the two reinforced cavalry regiments of the fifth brigade of the third division, Budyonny's cavalry division's outflanking attempt was defeated, and Wu Peifu led the infantry division of the Ufa Zhongyang Group to catch up and encircle Yegorov. condition.

When Jiang Hongyu said this, he intended to emphasize that the strategic planning of the coalition headquarters and the command of the Chinese commanders who made detours and pursued the troops were the basis of victory. Of course, no one intends to deny the credit for the Russian troops' brave fighting.

However, without the command of the Chinese senior generals of the coalition forces, especially without the powerful radio communication system of the coalition forces for intelligence notification and order transmission, without the machine guns and mortars of the coalition forces to strengthen the Russian troops, the Russian troops alone wanted to win the war against Uzbekistan. Fighting against France is not that easy.

However, Wu Peifu's eyes are always above the top, and he doesn't bother to grab the credit of the Russian troops. In fact, Wang Geng was in command of the coalition headquarters in the Ufa Battle. A little contribution has been made, but it is nothing compared to Wang Geng, the commander-in-chief's calm command, detailed grasp of the overall situation, and keen judgment ability.

When he finally snatched away from Utsunomiya the Soviet Red Army led by Ufa central yang group to chase and retreat, he let the pair of lucky generals Petrovich and Sergey under his command show off, and he led the infantry but was fighting against the wind Struggling with the heavy rain and the muddy road, although it also set a record for the infantry division to travel 70 kilometers in one day, it was the biggest pain in Wu Peifu's heart that he did not get a decisive battle.

This kind of regret and melancholy did not dissipate too much even after Buzuluk surrounded Yegorov and made an emergency landing on the other side. Compared with the contribution of Nerikov's Ural cavalry division, the two infantry divisions that he pursued It was just a prisoner of Yegorov.

So when Jiang Hongyu said this, Wu Peifu waved his hands lightly when he heard the words,

"The Ufa campaign relied on the coalition headquarters and the commander-in-chief to strategize and win for thousands of miles, and the bottom line relied on the soldiers of the three armies of the coalition army to use their lives. I, Wu Peifu, dare not be greedy for the achievements of the sky. As for the personnel arrangement of the coalition forces after the reorganization, I think ethnicity and origin are not a problem. It can be used according to one's ability, and the Battle of Ufa is the best touchstone, the command ability and combat level of the generals from all walks of life, the commander-in-chief has his own sense of proportion!"

Wu Peifu's words were impartial, and immediately won the favor of two Russian generals, Pepelyayev and Balayanov. It was the first time that the Prime Minister of the Volga Federal Autonomous Government noticed that Wu Peifu, who was usually casual and smiling, had a cold face. The Chief of Staff is really a man with a dark face and a straight heart, but he is the genuine Chief of Staff Chiang who usually smiles when he meets everyone. Now he is obviously a little insincere.

Balajanov said, "Chief of Staff Wu's words are very good. I believe that His Excellency the Commander-in-Chief of the Allied Forces has always advocated the equality of all ethnic groups within the Allied Forces, and that all generals are promoted and appointed according to their abilities! "

Wang Geng smiled and didn't speak. Utsunomiya frowned, thinking that Balajanov was obviously a bit ugly. Is the commander-in-chief of the coalition army thinking that you, an old Russian, can just guess at random, but at this moment, If I objected, it would not be to refute Balajanov's face, but to offend Wu Peifu.

For Wu Peifu, the commander-in-chief of China's Third Army, Utsunomiya Taro has a kind of jealousy deep in his heart, but unlike in front of Wang Geng, he can sometimes make jokes and make harmless jokes. He claims to be a model imperial professional soldier, but for some reason, he always feels that Wu Peifu's military strategic vision and city government are by no means inferior to his own.

Of course, in terms of record, this Wu Peifu and his third division swept Outer Mongolia and Lake Baikal for China almost by themselves, and the combat power of the three reorganized divisions of China's third group army of [-] people, I'm afraid The three A-type divisions of the Japanese Third Army in my hand are far inferior. If I really have to compare, maybe at least five A-type divisions can stop the three Chinese reorganization divisions.

"Not only is all ethnic groups in the coalition army equal, it is also a basic policy in West Siberia and the Volga Federation. Of course, the coalition army is not ordinary people, and the military songs of the three major disciplines and nine points of attention must continue to be sung loudly.

The promotion and appointment of the generals of the coalition army, in addition to regardless of ethnicity and skin color, also regardless of their origins, for example, those former Soviet Russian Red Army generals in the officer corps of the prisoner camp, as long as they are willing to sincerely defect to us, we can of course do it after review. Recruiting according to their ability, and some will be reused, which is of great benefit to the division and disintegration of the Soviet Red Army, and also shows our courage and mind to be open to all rivers! "

The words of the Commander-in-Chief of the Allied Forces were obviously like a heavy bomb, and the senior generals of the Allied Forces Headquarters present were stunned. Everyone did not expect that Wang Geng would dare to use the Soviet Russian Red Army general who had been captured and surrendered so soon. You know, unlike ordinary Soviet Red Army soldiers, Soviet Russian Red Army generals are theoretically staunch supporters of the Bolsheviks, and many of them have joined the Bolshevik Party.

Of course, many of these people are excellent generals from Tsarist Russia. It’s okay to arrange a job in the Volga Federation for reserve training after surrendering, like Ekh and Lezhevsky, but why don’t they just let them Return to the command posts at the group army and division level to lead the main force?This was a bit of a surprise to everyone.

"Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, it is good to appoint talents according to their abilities, regardless of ethnicity and race, but many of the former Soviet Red Army generals in the prisoner-of-war camps are die-hard Bolsheviks. I think it is not impossible to appoint them. , but it would be a bit risky to let them lead the troops again so soon!" Utsunomiya Taro couldn't help but said.

"Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, I think the Utsunomiya Chief of Staff is right. The Allied Russian troops made great contributions and sacrifices in the Battle of Ufa. We have so many generals who have made meritorious service. It is too late to be promoted. If in a blink of an eye, Su Those defeated generals of the Russian Red Army have turned into their own colleagues and superiors, I am afraid that the soldiers will not accept it, which will affect the unity and morale of the troops!" Pepelyaev also yelled!

Neither Jiang Hongyu nor Wu Peifu spoke. Although both of them felt disapproving, they also knew that Wang Geng did not intend to use Chinese or Japanese generals to directly lead troops below the Russian division. In other words, since most of them are promoted and appointed from Russian generals anyway, what is the difference between choosing from former White Guard generals and former Soviet Russian Red Army generals?Is there a difference?Is there no difference?

Wang Geng also frowned slightly, glanced at everyone, and patiently explained,

"I understand everyone's feelings. However, I have always been used to doubting people and using them. This time, we will use 13 existing coalition Russian troops to reorganize 16 Soviet Russian Red Army. And Tsarist Russian prisoners of war, since so many former Soviet Russian Red Army soldiers have been absorbed into our troops, we must consider the stability and combat effectiveness of the mixed troops."

"The commander-in-chief is right. Since the soldiers captured by the Soviet Red Army can be used, so can the surrendered Soviet Red Army generals, so that these people can dispel their doubts and stabilize quickly. Otherwise, after the reorganization, they will feel anxious all day long. If the backbone speaks for them, the troops may quarrel and collapse when they encounter some difficulties!" Wu Peifu said suddenly.
