    July 13, 1918 8:55 Sterli Tamak Town

    "It's not easy to die. If it weren't for the iron discipline of the coalition forces to treat prisoners preferentially, with your virtue, you would have been taken out to feed the dogs!" After hearing the translation, the guy named Gurney actually refused to go back and took Li Fugui's  The correspondent Xiaoma was very angry, and the young man cursed angrily.

    "Davali Shigeni Gaoli, if you want to take revenge, you must also save your life, right? At that time, the call to arms was blown behind your position, that is, Tukhachevsky wanted to call you back for questioning, such as the coalition forces  Do you know that you are unorganized and undisciplined, a coward who refuses to go back even if you are not willing to go back and rush forward to die?

    Now that I, Major, am the supreme commander of the coalition forces in this town, I will let you go back to send a message to Tukhachevsky. Do you know that it is a matter of life and death for the rest of your First Group Army?  Is it the lives of all the soldiers of the First Army that matter, or the face of you, a farmer from the Don River?  You don¡¯t seem to understand such a simple thing?  If you want to die, wouldn't it be enough to wait until you go back to deliver the message and have Tukhachevsky shoot you directly?  "

    Li Fugui folded his arms and asked Pushkin to speak quickly. His Russian was not good enough to speak so many words. Although Li Fugui had really learned a lot of Russian conversations in the past six months since he went out to the army, he could still make gestures when he was anxious.  I can barely explain the matter clearly. Of course, there are ready-made Russian translators at the moment. If I don't use it, I will be blinding my position as the supreme commander of the coalition forces in Sterli Tamak Town.

    The Russian company commander Pushkin knew Russian, Kazakh, Chinese, and Mongolian, so his company was selected from the 3rd Ural Cavalry Division to strengthen the cavalry battalion Li Fugui. At that time, the Japanese 4th Cavalry Regiment also wanted to allocate  A Japanese cavalry squadron was sent to Li Fugui, but was turned down by this guy. The reason was very simple. The combat effectiveness of the Japanese cavalry was not as good as that of the Ural Russian cavalry. Their weapons and equipment were not as good as those of the Chinese cavalry. They were not fluent in Russian and Chinese. It was just a waste of time to keep them. So I had better follow my family.  The large cavalry regiment should move more safely.

    Pushkin was not so polite to Gurny Goli. He kicked him first, pinched his waist and yelled a few times. He roughly explained Li Fugui's meaning, and at the end he added, "Gni Gory, you are the best."  The disgrace of the Cossacks is that they don¡¯t even have the courage to go back and report to their own people. Your family must not be a descendant of the Don Cossacks, but maybe a family from Poland who came here to pretend to be the Don Cossacks!¡±

    The Soviet Red Army cavalry company commander Genikoli was so angry that Pushkin said something that he went crazy. He jumped up from the ground and shoved Pushkin on his butt. The guy stood upright in the middle of the room and roared a long series of words.  Russian, very emotional.

    "The battalion commander, this old guy, is very energetic. What did he yell just now!" The correspondent Xiao Ma held up the M1 Garand riding rifle in his hand and took a step forward to block the battalion commander in front of him to prevent the other party from hurting anyone.  He asked his battalion commander without replying.

    "Ha, Pushkin still has a way. OK, this guy named Gurney is willing to go back and send a message to Tukhachevsky. Xiaoma, you ask someone to get some water to wash him, otherwise he will be disgraced.  When I got back, I thought our coalition forces had mistreated the prisoners. By the way, they put a baked potato in his pocket. I heard that the coalition forces in Ufa did this. Wounded soldiers or prisoners who were released back were always stuffed with a baked potato in their pockets.  It¡¯s probably because they¡¯re afraid they¡¯ll starve to death on the way back and it¡¯s hard to explain!¡± Li Fugui narrowed his eyes and said with a smile.

    "Don't forget to blindfold him before leaving the house! Pushkin, take a platoon and send him back. If Tukhachevsky agrees, we will cease fighting until the other side collects the corpses! By the way, the Red Army's  The corpse collection team is not allowed to enter with weapons, nor are they allowed to leave with weapons or ammunition. They are only allowed to carry away the corpses of the dead. The bullet belts and weapons on the corpses must be removed, otherwise it will be a violation of the agreement. I have heavy machine guns and forced assault rifles here.  Fire and serve!" Li Fugui ordered as he walked out of the detention room.

    Pushkin got up from the ground and gritted his teeth and agreed, but this guy stared at Gurny Goli as if he wanted to eat someone. Damn, a prisoner even humiliated me and threw me in front of the Chinese battalion commander.  Losing face, if it weren't for the strict discipline of the coalition forces, I would have destroyed you, so what.

    And Genikoli also stared angrily at the White Guards company commander who was about the same size as himself, and shouted in a low voice, "You Russian scum who has surrendered to imperialism, wait until the next time you meet him on the battlefield."  , I have to split you in half!"

    The news that Gurny Goli was released alive by the coalition forces made everyone at the Army Group Headquarters overjoyed. Obviously, this brave Red Cossack company commander's feat of rushing to the enemy's position single-handedly in the morning left a deep impression on everyone.

    Gregory rode a bareback horse back to his camp with a trace of shame on his face. His hands were tied behind his back. This treatment actually made Gregory secretly grateful to the Chinese major of the coalition forces who stopped him and untied his rope.  , Li Fugui obviously knows people's hearts well and knows that if Gurny Goryeo is freeWhen he returned to the Soviet Red Army, the political commissars and Chekas might have secretly suspected and scrutinized whether this guy had surrendered to the coalition forces. Therefore, it was not humiliating him to continue to let Gurny Goli return to his own camp with both sides tied behind his back.  But helping him.

    "Gni Goli! You are still alive! This is great!" Army commander Tukhachevsky stepped forward and hugged his guard company commander tightly. His voice was choked for a moment. The cavalryman of the guard company  The young men were all excellent young men that he personally selected. When he sent a company of them to attack the coalition positions in the morning, Tukhachevsky actually felt a little guilty in his heart. He knew that it was not a good idea for the cavalry to attack the opponent's frontal position defended by machine guns.

    But once there were no soldiers at hand, and the morale of the whole army was low, if the group army's guard company did not dare to go into battle, the next battle would be really unwinnable, so Tukhachevsky had to use his own guard company.  You sacrificed yourself to silence the division commanders and political commissars below. Damn it, my personal guards all went into battle and sacrificed their lives to defend the victory. Which of your division commanders dares to say the word "retreat" again? I don't have the ability to spread the word to make an army.  Ma Su still has the ability to kill him with tears!

    The development of the situation was indeed as Tukhachevsky had expected. Of course, a mere cavalry company of the Soviet Red Army could not overwhelm the opponent's position, and the opponent did not even use heavy machine guns to kill all of his guard cavalry company.  The army was wiped out, but the sacrifice of the guard company also completely silenced the mouths of a group of division-level commanders in the army who had lost their fighting spirit and were shaken. All the personal guards of the group army commander went into battle and charged and died. Who of you dares to say a word of withdrawal?  ?  !

    "Comrade Commander, the guard company failed to complete its mission, and all the brothers died. Just shoot me!" Gurny Goli knelt down in front of Tukhachevsky with a snap, hugging his commander's thick legs and howling.  He burst into tears. This young man was only 22 years old today, 3 years younger than Tukhachevsky. He had always regarded the commander of the group army as his idol. At this moment, Gurny Goli really didn¡¯t want to live anymore.

    "Nonsense! The group army guard company has successfully completed the tasks assigned by the headquarters, ascertained the reality of the enemy's southwest defense line, and gained valuable combat experience. Every soldier who died in the guard company deserved his death. They were all members of the first group army.  Hero! You, the cavalry company commander who still marches forward single-handedly, are the heroes of the First Army!" Tukhachevsky shouted excitedly, waving his fists while scanning the surrounding division commanders and political commissars with sharp eyes.

    Several division commanders and political commissars nodded hurriedly, saying that the guard company and Gurny Goli were the role models and pride of all the soldiers of the First Army, and they were well-deserved heroes of the Soviet Red Army!  Anyone who dares to say "no" at this time is really unable to see clearly!

    "Comrade Commander, the coalition forces in this town are composed of a battalion. Their top commander is a Chinese major battalion commander. This battalion should have at least five companies. The one who escorted me back just now was a cavalry company of the White Guards. Their  The number is the fifth company. I secretly observed their medical soldiers while they were bandaging me. There were at least 20 lightly and seriously wounded people on the other side, and it is estimated that less than ten were killed." Gurney wiped the snot and tears from his face.  While standing up to report.

    "The other side only suffered about 30 casualties? Do you have anything to say if they let you back?" Tukhachevsky felt a pain when he heard this. He had 1,800 killed and more than 600 injured, while the other side had not even a single platoon casualty.  Wow, this gap in the battle loss ratio makes the commander of the First Army of the Soviet Red Army a little embarrassed!

    The surrounding division commanders and political commissars also had sad expressions when they heard this. They originally thought that the enemy would be outnumbered and at least the enemy could not afford the casualties. However, they did not expect that after fighting for a whole morning, less than ten people from the opponent were killed. The total casualties were almost only ours.  One percent of the side, this is so shocking!

    "The coalition said that they gave preferential treatment to prisoners. Even the Soviet Red Army soldiers who died in the battle were within the scope of preferential treatment. They asked for a ceasefire and asked us to send people to collect the corpses and clean the battlefield, but they were not allowed to bring weapons, nor were they allowed to bring weapons and ammunition with them on the battlefield.  Let¡¯s go, that¡¯s their trophy.¡± Gurney lowered his head and told the coalition¡¯s purpose of letting him come back!
