    July 22, 1918 14:30 Allied Forces Headquarters Samara

    "Reporting to the Commander-in-Chief, there is a call from Eagle Eye No. 1. The main force of Kolchak's East Route Army, about five divisions, is pursuing the retreating Third Group Army of the Soviet Red Army westward. At the same time, the five divisions of the Central Route Army seem to have given up.  Cross the river southward, but move westward to Cheboksary along the north bank of the Volga River. The five divisions of the White Guard's Western Route Army are still standing still on the opposite bank of Maria Alexandrovna, and there is no sign of launching a cross-river operation! "

    Qian Tianfu, a capable-looking army lieutenant colonel and the new director of the headquarters' war room, came in and reported.

    Major General Shunroku Hata, chief staff officer of the war room, followed Taro Utsunomiya to the Southwest Front to command the Ukrainian campaign. Ishihara and Itagaki, a pair of live treasures who had just been promoted to colonel, also followed. All three of them served as brigades of three divisions respectively.  long position.

    Wu Peifu took the former staff of the Third Army Headquarters to Tsaritsyn on a coalition air force transport plane early this morning. This caused Wang Geng's coalition headquarters war room to lose almost two-thirds of its personnel.  And this little-known guy, Qian Tianfu, a young staff officer who joined the war less than three years after graduating from the 13th batch of the Infantry Department of the Japanese Army Non-commissioned Officer School, stood out and became Wang Geng's main combat staff officer at this time.

    Qian Tianfu's ability to stand out in Wang Geng's coalition headquarters is not only due to the strong recommendation of Jiang Hongyu and Hata Shunroku, but also due to his own military talent. Qian Tianfu is different from Hata Shunroku, Ishihara Kanji and Itagaki.  This guy is naturally a good at talking on paper, and he is keen on working on pictures, but he does not like to go to the front line to lead grassroots troops in combat.

    Qian Tianfu is actually a very arrogant and proud guy. Of course, the reason why his talent was discovered instead of being lost in the sea of ??people is first of all due to his senior, who was the chief of staff of Wang Geng Nanyuan's participating army.  , recommended by Jiang Fangzhen, head of the teaching group.

    Jiang Fangzhen also graduated from the third phase of the infantry course of the Japanese Army Non-commissioned Officer School. When Jiang Fangzhen was able to study in Japan and attend the Army Non-commissioned Officer School, it was inseparable from the sponsorship of three noble people. Before going to Japan, Jiang Fangzhen enrolled in Qiushi, the predecessor of Zhejiang University.  Qian Junfu, a classmate who had a very good relationship with Jiang Fangzhen in the college, was Qian Tianfu¡¯s cousin. Of course, Qian Tianfu was much younger than this cousin. When Jiang Baili and Qian Junfu were classmates in Qiushi College,  The lieutenant colonel and staff officer was just a seven-year-old naughty boy at the time.

    In this time and space of 1918, Qian Tianfu's cousin Qian Junfu is the director of the Ministry of Education in Beijing, and Comrade Jiang Baili, a senior ten years ahead of him, is already the military governor of Shanxi and the commander of the reorganization division of the participating armies, and classmate Qian Tianfu  , joined the combat army and was promoted from lieutenant to lieutenant colonel in one year. Jiang Fangzhen recommended him to Jiang Hongyu and took him to the coalition headquarters.

    If Shunroku Hata, Ishihara and Itagaki, three top students who graduated from Japanese mainland universities, previously occupied the top three combat staff positions in the operations room of the Allied Forces Command, then they only have the money to graduate from the 13th phase of the Japanese Army Non-commissioned Officer School.  Army Lieutenant Colonel Tian Fu can be regarded as the fourth outstanding staff officer!

    This is why even a arrogant guy like Shunroku Hata recommended him to Wang Geng. Although the 25-year-old Qian Tianfu is only a lieutenant colonel in the Chinese Army, in fact, Wang Geng holds the title of Commander-in-Chief.  , in fact, in addition to the guy who even grasped the authority of the chief of general staff, especially after Jiang Hongyu, the chief of staff, also served as the logistics commander, our classmate Qian Tianfu, as an army lieutenant colonel, took on the responsibility of the coalition and  Responsibilities of the Chief of Staff of the Central Front.

    "Hmm Kolchak seems to have changed. What about the Soviet Red Army? Has the Tenth Army on the left bank of the Volga River moved north?" Wang Geng turned around in front of the map and asked.

    "We have just received the aerial reconnaissance report from Hawkeye 2. Two infantry divisions of the Soviet 10th Army have moved north. Among them, the 37th Infantry Division originally deployed in Techuhi is on the bank of the river about fifteen kilometers north of Techuhi.  Nearby, there was an encounter with Kolchak's 1st Don Cossack Cavalry Division going south. The two sides fought very lively. The Soviet Infantry Division suffered a lot. It is estimated that it lost at least one regiment of troops!" Qian Tianfu said with a smile!  .

    "We encountered it so quickly. The White Guard cavalry division moved south so quickly! Where are the other troops on both sides? Have Hawkeye 2 reconnoited them clearly?" Wang Geng frowned and asked.

    Seeing this, Qian Tianfu walked to the map, looked at the red and blue flags originally planted on the map, and moved the flag representing the 38th Infantry Division of the Soviet Red Army from the position of Teqiushi to 7 kilometers to the north.  , fifteen kilometers to the north was a small red flag representing the 37th Soviet Infantry Division, but Qian Tianfu conveniently tore off a quarter of the small flag, which meant that a quarter of the force was lost.

    "The 38th Infantry Division of the 10th Army of the Soviet Red Army, which was originally deployed in Buyinsk, has now reached 7 kilometers south of the 37th Division. However, looking at the posture,The Russian 37th Infantry Division has been surrounded on three sides by the Cossack Cavalry Division on the river bank, here.  .  "

    As he spoke, Qian Tianfu placed a small blue flag with a horse head painted on it representing the White Guard Cossack Cavalry Division next to the 37th Infantry Division, and moved another blue flag with a horse head painted on it from the south bank of Kazan in the north.  The small flag was planted to the north of the two small flags, one red and one blue. It looked like it was about fifteen kilometers away.

    "The 2nd Don Cossack Cavalry Division of the White Guards has also come up. This is an interesting battle. Where are the Soviet Red Army's Volga Fleet and the transport fleet that went north from Simbirsk?" Wang Geng asked, holding his chin.

    "Here, about 20 kilometers south of Jieqiuxi, although we are going upstream, we estimate that we can reach the battlefield in another hour. Commander-in-Chief, are we really standing by and watching? Do you want to help someone?  Give them some fire?" Qian Tianfu asked as he moved a boat-shaped red flag from Simbirsk to the Volga River 20 kilometers south of Tetyushi.

    "Help? Counselor Qian, your words are full of freshness. Where can I help? How can I help? Tell me, I know you are famous for your boldness and surprising words in the war room!"

    Wang Geng turned around with interest and asked his new war room director and staff officer. As the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces asked, he was thinking, is that future great scientist the cousin of the staff officer Qian in front of him?  How old are you now?  Is it time to go to elementary school?  I¡¯ll have to take a look when I have time next time I go back to Beijing.

    "Commander-in-Chief, I think it's a pity that we just stand by and watch. The other side is playing ping ping pong so lively on the other side of us. That means they don't take us seriously. We have to teach the other side a lesson and tell them that the Volga River  Fifty kilometers along the coast is the demilitarized zone. How about asking them to evacuate our border?" Qian Tianfu suggested with a smile.
