Beiyang 1917

It was not the Cossack cavalry general who quarreled last time who jumped out to fight the crossfire, but Ivan Ivanovich Zulin, the commander of the 2nd Kazan Infantry Division. Right now, he was fanning the flames and criticizing others in a vicious way.

It turned out that his 2nd Division suffered heavy losses in the battles of the previous two days. The two brigades each suffered more than 2000 casualties. In the distribution of equipment, the supplements and equipment obtained by the 2nd Division were obviously inferior to those of the 1st Division, which made Zu Lin, the division commander, a little bit annoyed.

Nima, everyone has gone through fire and water to fight bloody battles in Tsivelisk. In the morning of Lao Tzu’s 2nd Division, there were nearly 4000 people, which accounted for about 1% of a division. Why should I be ranked behind your 2st Division? Moreover, Glinioff took the lead in picking out veterans and strong recruits from the Kazan Reserve Corps, leaving the [-]nd Division with guys who had been in the recruit camp for less than half a month.

When it comes to cannons and machine guns, Zu Lin, the commander of the 2nd Division, was even more angry. The 2st Division not only snatched an extra battalion of heavy machine guns from the logistics, but even the bullets of each Maxim machine gun I received 2% more, not to mention that this guy took away an extra cannon from an artillery company, and even the troika and mules that pulled the cannon. The 1nd Division was assigned the rest of the [-]st Division. [ . ]

"Ivan Ivanovich, why are you unconvinced? Lao Tzu's 1st Division has been the main attacker in the Tsivelisk battle. The casualties are much greater than your 2nd Division. If you don't give priority to replenishment and equipment 1st Division, next time your 2nd Division will charge for me?

Besides, I have agreed with the chief of staff in advance. During the war, my Kazan 1st Division didn’t have any cowards, but the headquarters of the soldiers who were wiped out had to give priority to supplementing me. Done! "Gliniov, the commander of the 1st Kazan Infantry Division, blew his beard and stared, not paying attention to Zu Lin, the commander of the 2nd Division.

In Gliniov's view, Zulin's Kazan 2nd Division was in charge of the flank attack in the capital two days ago. Not only did it fail, but it also suffered so many casualties. This gray-bearded Zulin should have retired long ago. .

"Shut up! Look at what you look like. This is the division commander of my Kazan White Guards? How is it different from the small merchants in the vegetable market? Ivan Ivanovich, today is a military officer. At the meeting, the discussion was about the next battle plan, not about whose children were not welcome. Glinioff’s 1st Division suffered the most casualties and destroyed the most enemies. The priority to supplement the 1st Division was Both the Chief of Staff and I agree!"

Kolchak, the highest consul in Russia and the commander-in-chief of the White Guards, was so angry that he slapped the table and scolded. Zulin's white beard was shaking with anger, but he dared not make it public. He told Kolchak at the military meeting When he challenged him, he had no choice but to stop gnawing angrily, and his cheeks were bitten and rattled.

Here, the commander of the 1st Division in Kazan, Gliniov, hadn't taken care of his happiness. Kolchak turned around and said to him, "Peter Andreyevich, the 1st Division will give priority to replenishment and recovery, and the artillery The guns and heavy machine guns are specially strengthened. Could it be that they are for you to display in an armed parade? Now we are discussing the next step of the battle plan. If you want to sleep and rest, you go back to Kazan, and I will replace the 1st Division with someone else!"

"Hey, Alexander Vasilyevich, don't tell me, I don't have much to say. Although the difficulties are great, the combat effectiveness of the troops has not recovered enough. The Kazan 1st Division will follow the baton of you and the chief of staff. This point has never been shaken, you give the order, and I, Glinioff, will bring the 1st division up, absolutely unambiguous!" Glinioff stood up with a bang, patted his chest and followed Goyer, who was leading Chuck and Hastings expressed their determination, and now they are showing some ace master posture!

Only then did Kolchak nodded in satisfaction, and waved Gliniov to sit down. The chief of staff, Hastings, said, "Today we convened this military meeting to fully promote minzhu. As for how the next phase of the battle will be played, you guys, won’t you spend the past two days resting and going to the countryside to go to the people’s homes to find dogs and chickens to improve food? This is in the middle of a battle, not a peaceful era! Let’s talk about rest Just give away the string in your head?!"

As he spoke, Hastings tapped the bridge conference table with the pen in his hand, "Stop making noise about trivial matters, we are impatient to listen to nonsense that lacks oil, salt and no constructiveness, let me give you a head start, next There are two directions for one-step combat. The first is to continue to the west, encircle and conquer Nizhny Novgorod. The second option is to use mobile forces to go south and strive to eliminate Soviet Russia before Nizhny Novgorod is settled. The main forces of the tenth and eighth armies of the Red Army!"

The words of Chief of Staff Guillaume Nikolaevich Hastings have put Kolchak's extremely important military conference in the right direction. Ke, Hastings, Dimirev, and Krashinikov, the four frontline leaders of the White Guards, were bothered by this matter.

"Alexander Vasilyevich, everyone, I suggest that we use the main force to the south, maneuver to the flanks of the Soviet Russian Tenth and Eighth Army Groups, use cavalry troops to break through their defenses, and then launch a fatal blow. Once the Soviet Union is defeated With the tenth and eighth main armies of the Volga Front Army of the Russian Red Army, we will be able to weaken the enemy on the eastern front of Moscow, and at the same time remove the threat from our flanks, and relieve our worries about going west!" The former commander of the former enemy of the West Route Army Sergei Nikolaevich Dimilev spoke his mind.

Kolchak and Hastings nodded slightly when they heard the words, and the White Guard generals on both sides of the conference table below were whispering about Dimirev's suggestion. The goal has been set, how can we change the direction of using troops now?Could it be that Timirev lost his courage to continue westward after being frustrated in the detour and the battle of crossing the river?

"Sergey Nikolaevich's suggestion is good, but it is different from our original intention of launching the campaign. I think we should go all the way west, as long as we take Nizhny Novgorod, a heavy industrial city and ordnance industry. Base, it can deal a huge blow to the Soviet regime and the Soviet Red Army. What are we going to do in the south? The south will not solve any problems, but will destroy the achievements we have made before!"
