The Treaty of Versailles was about to be signed at the end of June, and what would happen to the intervening forces if the battle plan was changed? Achieving better results is easier said than done. The squadron wiped out 80,000 Soviet troops, and the battle was due to the gas bombs, and the credit of the Imperial Allied Army risking death to enter the city to clean up the battlefield. The Chinese intervention army directly eliminated only more than 44,000 Russian troops, and the figure of 80,000 includes those eliminated by the Imperial Allied Army, including the squadron to suppress bandits in the rear. Of course, because of the fighting in a foreign country, many innocent people were also killed indiscriminately, and the number of them was not known how many of them were used as rebels, and now that the 3,000 rounds of poison gas bombs have been used up, there will never be such a good chance of mass destruction.

Wang Maoru kept smoking a cigar, and Ma Liang hurriedly walked over and said, "Xiushuai, don't smoke like this." ”

"It's okay, it's fine." He sighed, a little lost in his heart, it would be good if Zhu Yongquan was here at this time, Xiong Bingtao's strategic vision was not as good as Zhu Yongquan. Thinking of Zhu Yongquan, he instructed Ma Liang to send electricity to the country, and asked how Zhu Yongquan was recuperating, if he was better, he would come directly by airship next time, he was needed here. Xiong Bingtao is good at handling interpersonal relationships, and he can serve in the Ministry of Military Affairs in the future to help him deal with military affairs, personnel, and adjustments. Thinking of this, Wang Maoru has already decided that he will be the next deputy minister of military affairs.

Then Wang Maoru said: "Transfer Yong Peiyu to the General Headquarters, now everyone is counting on him, this basket was poked out by him, he has to make up this basket for me." ”

At this time, the first battle group, under the leadership of Commander Li Pinxian, quickly moved south and collided with the Voronezh Division of the Ninth Army of the Soviet and Russian Southern Front. The 1st Campaign Group, with the help of aircraft, was the first to discover the Voronezh Division of the Red Army, which was heading north to support. An ambush was set up between the two hills, while the Voronezh Division sent an advance cavalry regiment, the Ural Cavalry Regiment, to rush to the front of the 1st Battle Cluster in a vain attempt to break the opponent's disposition.

Li Pinxian first bombarded the Ural Cavalry Regiment of the Red Army with artillery, and then immediately sent one brigade of the 2nd Turkic Cavalry Division to attack head-on, while the other brigade rushed directly to the Voronezh Infantry Division.

The Ural cavalry of the Voronezh division of the Red Army itself was composed of Tatar herdsmen, and the battle composition of the Turkic cavalry division under Wang Maoru was on par with that of Wang Maoru, but the combat effectiveness was slightly higher. The Red Army, with one regiment against one brigade, actually ended in a draw.

When the two sides were deadlocked, Li Pinxian sent the 7th Infantry Division from the left flank and the 2nd Division of the Russian Imperial Allied Army from the right flank to surround the Soviet Voronezh Infantry Division. On the frontal battlefield, he temporarily organized the three independent cavalry battalions of the 1st, 7th, and 15th divisions together to form a cavalry regiment, which was composed of Guo Buluo. Long Qing's nephew, Guo Buluo. Rong Hai commanded and rushed to the Ural Cavalry Regiment of the Russian Red Army.

The addition of the Chinese cavalry was the last straw that crushed the brave Ural cavalry regiment, and the Soviet Russian army was defeated. The Voronezh Infantry Division was defeated. Next, Li Pinxian sent the 2nd Turkic Cavalry Division to pursue the enemy, and the other troops advanced according to the plan.

Two legs can't outrun four legs. In order to save the whole division, the Voronezh Infantry Division left a regiment to desperately resist the broken rear, but to no avail, it was eaten as a snack by the Turkic cavalry division.

In the end, the Voronezh Infantry Division was helpless, three infantry regiments and one cavalry regiment, because of a strategic mistake, one infantry regiment was buried, because the long-fought cavalry regiment was also lost more than half, the division commander was ruthless, and ordered the guard battalion and the Ural cavalry regiment to stay. Take the initiative to attack the Turkic cavalry division.

But they met the red-eyed Guo Buluo. The Chinese independent cavalry regiment led by Rong Hai, the two sides launched the most primitive cavalry battle on the Tatar steppe, and the Chinese cavalry was better equipped with a large number of automatic weapons, which was enough to defeat the crippled Ural cavalry regiment.

The Ural Cavalry Regiment and the Guard Battalion of the Voronezh Infantry Division were eventually wiped out by the combined efforts of the Chinese cavalry and the 2nd Turkic Cavalry Division, but the Voronezh Infantry Division escaped and retreated to Tsaritsyn with the support of the 15th Division of the Russian Red Army.

The southward movement of the First Campaign Group of the Volga Army of Soviet Russia was indeed very abusive to Moscow. The Commander-in-Chief of the Southern Front, Slavin, and the Revolutionary Military Councillor Sokolaniko believed that Tsaritsyn was much more important than the annihilation of Denikin's corps, so only the 1st Cavalry Army, the 10th Army, remained on the front line with Denikin's corps. The 14th Army pinned down the enemy. They had to reclaim their men from all the units that surrounded and annihilated Denikin's corps, and the 13th Army also withdrew from the Don to Tsaritsyn, where it would work with the 8th and 9th armies to prepare for the second battle of Tsaritsyn. The Southern Front decided that Sokolaniko, the Revolutionary Military Council, would be responsible for the defense of the Tsaritsyn front, and Slavin would be responsible for the battle against the Denikin side.

On the Tsaritsyn side, Soviet Russia hit three armies, with a total strength of 100,000 troops, namely the Russian 8th Army, commander Khveshin, composed of the 1st Moscow Workers' Division, the 12th, 13th, 33rd, and 40th Infantry Divisions, a total of 25,000 infantry cavalry, 157 artillery pieces, 912 machine guns and 5 armored trains.

The 9th Russian Army, commanded by Knyagnitsky, was composed of the Voronezh Infantry Division (later changed to the 14th Infantry Division), the 15th Infantry Division, the 16th Infantry Division, and the 23rd Infantry Division, with more than 23,000 infantry cavalry.

The 13th Russian Army, under the command of Kozhevnikov, has the 9th, 41st, and 41st Infantry Divisions, the Don Independent Cavalry Regiment, the Tsaritsyn Armed Workers' Guard, the Ukrainian Bolshevik Regiment, and the Turkish Islamic Independent Cavalry Regiment, with a strength of 21,000 troops.

In addition, due to the arrival of the Chinese intervention army, the Russian crowd in Tsaritsyn was also excited, setting off an upsurge of defending the homeland and defending the country, and dozens of armed teams of workers were formed, which also amounted to more than 18,000 people, plus an armed army composed of students and citizens.

Li Pinxian's Volga Army's First Campaign Group only had more than 60,000 infantry cavalry, and the biggest problem facing it was logistical support and ammunition supply, especially the ammunition consumption of the E1 rifle far exceeded that of similar rifles, and the army was equipped with a large number of automatic weapons, general-purpose machine guns and submachine guns, which made their logistical pressure very huge. The only good thing is that the E1 rifle and S1 machine gun are designed to be universal with rifle scissor bullets, S1 machine guns and C1 submachine guns with round head bullets. Li Pinxian's army stopped at the city of West Akhtubar, north of Tsaritsyn, and he did not attack, but quietly waited for the other side to gather men.

When the battle situation stabilized, Li Pinxian immediately ordered the troops to attack Tsaritsyn, and bypassed the defense zone of the opponent's ironclad train to carry out small-scale infiltration and large-scale destruction, and first attacked the Soviet Russian chemical plant, power supply plant, oil factory, bread factory, sausage factory, water plant and other civilian facilities in Tsaritsyn, plundered and destroyed the enemy's logistics.

What the war is fought is logistics. When Tsarist Russia and Soviet Russia were attacking and defending, no matter who took the initiative to destroy civilian facilities or factories, both sides knew that no matter which side won in the future, these facilities would have to be rebuilt with great effort and an unknown amount of money. However, Li Pinxian belonged to the Chinese intervention army, which was different, and they did not occupy Tsaritsyn, so they did not have so many scruples, and the first thing that the headquarters attacked was the opponent's civilian facilities, especially the opponent's grain reserves, and burned a large number of Tsaritsyn's grain and grass reserves. This made Tsaritsyn's supreme leader of Soviet Russia, Sokolaniko, extremely angry, and ordered the soldiers to approach the ironclad train to the first battle group of the Volga army, and take advantage of the ironclad train's long range and caliber of 280 mm to carry out a total attack on the Volga army, which had the advantage of light weapons.

However, Li Pinxian immediately ordered the army to tear down the railways along the way, destroy the roads, and slowly withdraw the troops to the east, and burned every qiē that could be seen, and the entire rich Volga River valley became bare. After the first campaign group withdrew twenty kilometers to the east, a new trench line was created in the rear of the demolished railroad tracks. And when the Soviet Russian Southern Army attacked Li Pinxian's department, it was attacked head-on by the Volga Army without the cover of armored train artillery.

Li Pinxian knew very well that a large part of the reason for Stalin's victory in the Battle of Tsaritsyn last year was the reason for the heavy artillery of the armored train, so he specially carried out the method of harassing and provoking the Soviet Russian army, trying to provoke the Russian Red Army, which was irritable and vindictive. Unfortunately, when Sokolaniko's troops were resolutely resisted by Li Pinxian and lost their troops, the Russians immediately realized that the other side was afraid of their own defense, and the strongest Ben side was also defensive, so they immediately withdrew their troops and returned to Tsaritsyn to carry out the defense. In response to the harassment of the squadron, Sokolaniko asked the cavalry to counterattack, but the infantry was not allowed to attack.

After several attacks and defenses, Li Pinxian saw that the Tsarizin side had stabilized, and immediately ordered the 7th Division and the 15th Division to go north to support the 1st Battle Cluster. The two divisions had 40,000 men, which was equivalent to half the number of troops in the second battle group, and fortunately both divisions left the cavalry units to him when they left. Li Pinxian handed over all these troops to Guo Buluo. Rong Hai commanded and enlisted the Tatars along the way, so that the number of independent cavalry regiments increased to 3,000 men.

With the assistance of the Tatars, Ronghai attacked the Russians in the towns and distributed the property to the Tatars, creating contradictions between the Tatars and the Russians on several occasions. He had to get his cavalry troops to bypass Tsaritsyn, dismantle railways along the road, and attack Soviet Russian grain storage points, especially for the Soviet Russian army's combat readiness. At the same time, they preferred to throw away the surplus grain they had captured and burn it and feed it to the horses, which made the hunger situation in the Russian regions of the Tatar steppes even worse.

Eventually, the Holodomor in Russia was triggered, and riots broke out throughout Russia because of the starvation of the victims, who did not trust both Soviet Russia and Tsarist Russia, and demanded independence and autonomy. And in the centralized Bolshevik government, such independence would undoubtedly not be accepted.
