Beiyang 1917

() Now that the Volga Federation has been established, the salaries of soldiers are much higher than those of the White Guards. Medals and medals are not counted, but there are still honors that can be passed on to future generations, and the Volga Federation troops are replaced by Chinese. With weapons and equipment, there is a coalition air force armed to the teeth on the top of the head to help out. The German 10th Army commanded by William Greiner is just a German [-]th Army. I think it is definitely not the opponent of the King of China! "

Zinoviev supported the table with both hands, stared at Bukharin disapprovingly and retorted.

"Okay, how is it proper to argue like this, Sverdlov, what do you think of the outcome of the Ukrainian campaign? You are the vice chairman of the Supreme Military Council and the commander of the Volga Military District and Front Army. Your opinion on this issue is very important. !" The little leader Ulyanov stopped the bickering between Bukharin and Zinoviev with a wave of his hand, and turned his attention to Sverdlov, his former close comrade-in-arms, but at the moment he was a little too big The third person in the Central Committee of Soviet Russia. ..

"Comrade Chairman, fellow committee members, this issue has been analyzed and discussed by the senior staff of the Supreme Military Council. Unfortunately, it is limited to the insufficient intelligence collection of the two warring parties. It is indeed insufficient. At present, it is necessary to make an accurate judgment. It's hard, it's really hard! How about listening to Comrade Trotsky's further analysis?" Sverdlov spread his hands and kicked the ball back, and the battle with Kolchak cost him The commander of the front army has a lot of energy. If he raises his perspective to a higher level now, the master really dare not draw conclusions easily.

Ulyanov snorted a few times when he heard this, and turned to Trotsky in dissatisfaction, "Comrade Trotsky, the views of Bukharin and Zinoviev, what you just said The claim is a supplement and argument, but obviously, is it too hasty and hasty to think that the Germans will lose to the Chinese and the Japanese themselves?" ..

"Comrade Chairman, planning for a rainy day is the most valuable quality of a military strategist and a statesman. If it is really decided between Germany and Austria and the King of China, I am afraid that the Soviets will no longer exist. Compared with Russia's territory and population resources Ambition, Germany and Austria are no less than the king of China. Finland, Lithuania, Estonia, Latvia, Poland, Belarus and Ukraine are now actually satellite countries of the German-Austrian Allies. Do you think we will take over from the Germans in the future? Is it easier to get these territories back, or is it easier to get these places back from the unsteady King of China and the Volga Federation?"

Trotsky's farsightedness once again shattered the glasses of the Central Committee of Soviet Russia!

1918年8月6ri9:00，萨马拉联军司令部大作战室

"Everyone, the situation is very serious. The Kharkov group of the Southwest Front failed to attack Yekaterinoslav, and the Donetsk group was empty in the Donbas coalfield. The Germans gave up Donetsk and Lugan Sk, the two main divisions of the German 31st Army plus the Second Army of the Ukrainian National Army went north to reinforce the Von Neuhaus troops in the middle!

The general in the court hesitated a little and was almost surrounded by the opponent under the city of Ekaterina Noslav. Due to the heavy rain this week, the coalition air force failed to enter the battle on a large scale. We are too optimistic about the situation! "

Standing in front of the big map was Wang Geng, Commander-in-Chief of the Eastern Allied Forces of the Allied Powers, his face was a little blue, and the entire war room was silent. They all looked solemn, and the group army commanders of the Central Front Army of the coalition army below were even more energetic and did not dare to breathe.

"Actually, we still blame us for underestimating the land of Russia. If we say that Ukraine has already passed the rainy season, but a few days ago, when the sudden warm and humid air flow merged with a burst of cold air from the north, Donbass and Eastern Ukraine became heavy rains." The torrential muddy swamp made the Donetsk Group of the Allied Southwest Front attack on the east road not far behind the speed of a turtle crawling. When the Germans relied on the railway to evacuate the coal fields, they determined to destroy almost all railway hubs and Bridge culvert tunnel!"

There was a trace of fatigue and anxiety in Wang Geng's expression. With the progress west of the Ural Mountains, the victory of the Battle of Ufa, the establishment of the Volga Federation, and the signing of the Samara Peace Treaty, a series of victories made him overly optimistic about the situation. Forming the Southwest Front Army with Utsunomiya Taro's Japanese Third Army as the main body, and launching the Ukrainian Campaign, it seems that the preparations are still not sufficient.

Although Wu Peifu's southern army occupied the North Caucasus region, there are many ethnic groups in this region and it is a mountainous area. The troops also need to rest and replenish before they can continue to march into the Baku oil field. At this moment, they have won the first stage of the Ukrainian battlefield and occupied the Kharkov's Southwest Front Army finally tasted the bitter fruit under the strong counterattack of the German army.

"Director Qian, tell me about the latest situation on the battlefields!" The commander-in-chief of the coalition forces waved his hand and motioned for Colonel Qian Tianfu, the director of the war room, to take over for him to explain the situation on the battlefield. On one side, Jiang Hongyu, the chief of staff of the coalition army, got up hastily and lit a match.

Wang Geng glanced at his chief of staff and lit a cigarette. His eyes were also bloodshot. The bad weather made the logistics supply encounter serious difficulties. This deputy who also served as the logistics commander of the coalition army probably stayed up all night. It’s been too long, and everyone is shouting that the road has been washed away, the railway is interrupted, the supplies, ammunition and food cannot be transported to the front line, and the progress of the field road from Samara, the capital of the Volga Federation, to Saratov along the banks of the Volga River has also stalled. Without moving forward, the supplies of the coalition central yang army stationed on the Great Plains of Ufa with tens of 10 troops were also tense.

Qian Tianfu, the director of the war room, has suffered no less than others these days, because Jiang Hongyu, the official chief of staff, actually focuses his work on the logistics headquarters, and the two deputy chiefs of staff, Jiang Fangzhen and Tanaka Yoshiichi, are obviously more serious. Most of the focus is on the reorganization and organization of the various armies of the Central Yang Front Army. Qian Tianfu, the director of the war room, has actually become the executive chief of staff of the Eastern Front Allied Army Headquarters, with more than 20 staff officers and assistants working in 24-hour shifts. Maintain the work of the General Staff Headquarters.

"Everyone, as of this morning, the situation in each battlefield is roughly like this. In the northern battlefield, the first-line troops of the Soviet Russian Red Army and the Kolchak White Guards are stalemate on the front line from Reskovo Sergach Aratli to Niklisk on the south bank of the Volga River. , The main force of the Soviet Russian Volga Front is concentrated on the Nizhny Novgorod-Saransk line, and neither side has taken any further action!"
