    "What the hell, Felix Edmundovich, have all the local Soviets and Cheka fled? The troops have retreated, but who made the local Soviet government, workers' pickets, and Cheka staff come together?  Run away? Completely unorganized and undisciplined. In this case, you must take action immediately and drive everyone back. We only agreed to the Volga Federation to demarcate this demilitarized zone as a buffer zone, but we did not say that we would take these lands  Give it to that shitless Volga Federation!"

    Ulyanov pinched his waist with one hand and waved his other hand to get angry at Cheka Chairman Dzerzhinsky. The Cheka Chairman looked ashamed and mumbled, not knowing how to explain.

    In fact, the establishment of the Volga Military District caused a certain degree of confusion in the administration of the local Soviet government and the command of the local Cheka troops. Not to mention that after the cession of Saratov, Voronezh-Kursk and Tsaritsyn, from the south  The evacuated local Soviet government staff and Cheka are also in a state of chaos, and many agencies and personnel have not yet found new leaders to whom they should report.

    "How to reply to the Volga Federation now?" The People's Commissar of Foreign Affairs of the Soviet Union wiped the sweat from his head. Last night, this guy spent the whole night negotiating back and forth with Joffe in Berlin on the telegram, trying to find a way to get the answer from Ludendorff.  Cannons and anti-aircraft guns were squeezed out there. Since the second payment was temporarily insufficient, in addition to the first batch of 100,000 Russian rifles and 20mm anti-aircraft guns from ten anti-aircraft gun battalions, it was hoped that the second batch would include 50  An artillery company's 300 cannons were quickly transported across the border.

    "I don't think there is any need to ignore them. Let the 10th and 8th armies be ready for battle. Once the Volga Federation's troops cross the river and enter the demilitarized zone, we will resolutely fight back. Territory is a matter of principle. We must not tolerate being too weak.  !" Trotsky, Chairman of the Supreme Military Council, spoke sternly.

    "Lev Davidovich, Comrade Chairman, what you said is easy, but the mission of the Eighth and Tenth Army is to prepare to outflank and cut off the retreat of Kolchak's main force from the south as a strategy for the Kazan Campaign.  The reserve force is not deployed in the south just to compete with the Volga Federation. Besides, if the Volga Federation troops cross the river, can this battle continue? Do you know how many troops there are on the other side of the river, at least 300,000?  The main force of the ground forces!" Sverdlov frowned and couldn't help but push back.

    "We paid such a heavy price to conclude a peace treaty with the Volga Federation and demarcate a truce. We cannot be fooled by the enemy. The top priority now is to eliminate Kolchak and the main force of his White Guards, instead of tearing up the peace treaty and starting a war with the Volga Federation again! Once the Volga Federation is  If the main forces of the Federation and the Allied Forces cross the river and fight, we have to consider how to defend Moscow. With all due respect, the Volga River Front will never be able to withstand the joint attack of Kolchak and the Volga Federation! "

    Bubnov, a member of the Central Committee of the Soviet Union who had been silent all this time, couldn't help but say that after this guy was transferred back from Tsaritsyn, he took over Kamenev's duties as chairman of the Moscow Soviet and commander of the garrison headquarters.  Rizin has enjoyed a lot of glory, of course, but it is still far from what he was in Ukraine earlier.

    "Not to mention that the Volga Front army cannot withstand it, even if the troops from Petersburg in the west are transferred here, they may not be able to stop it. It may be necessary to organize and arm the entire Russian working class and expand the army by at least one million to be able to stop it. But rifles  Where are the bullets? Where are the aircraft cannons?" Sverdlov looked ugly and spread his hands.

    "Calm down! Pay attention to your identities, especially you, Yakov Mikhailovich. You and the Volga Front led by Kamenev are the only barrier east of Moscow. As the commander of the military district and front, you  We cannot change our policy of going north first and then south. The top priority is to defeat Kolchak. As for the south, let any Volga Federation mess with it. I want to see what tricks they can come up with!" Uri!  Yanov stopped Bubnov and Sverdlov from goring the bull with a wave of his hand.

    "Vladimir Ilyich, how should we reply to the Volga Federation?" Chicherin asked from the side.

    "How to answer? Call that Pepelyaev back, warn them not to try to interfere in the internal affairs of the Soviet Russian government, and remind them that the demarcation of the demilitarized zone has reached the bottom line of our tolerance. If they continue to violate our sovereignty, then  The Soviet Russian government will not hesitate to fight and use blood and fire to defend the dignity of the Soviets and the Bolsheviks!" Ulyanov's words were resounding and he looked heroic!

    Trotsky, Sverdlov, Chicherin and several other members of the Soviet Central Committee looked at each other in shock upon hearing this, obviously confused by Comrade Ulyanov's inconsistent statements.

    "Why are you still standing there? This is the answer you gave to the Volga Federation. What the hell, a broken puppet regime and five people and six people do you think you are a potato?!" Ulyanov turned around twice with his hands behind his back, and saw  Exactly? and several Central Committee members were still standing around him without speaking, but they couldn't help but got anxious and yelled.

    Chicherin had no choice but to grit his teeth and turned around to return the call. Ulyanov turned to Trotsky, Sverdlov and Dzerzhinsky and said,

    "Are we still maintaining radio contact with the coalition headquarters? Send a telegram to the Chinese king and ask him what his plans are? If he wants to tear up the "Samara Peace Treaty" and join Kolchak to deal with us, then  We had to announce that we would directly join the German-Austrian Allies and tell him that as long as he abides by the "Samara Peace Treaty", we can acquiesce that the coalition forces will use the road south in the demilitarized zone, but they must not go north to support Kazan and Kazan.  Kolchak!

    Last night, the other party asked to lease our Volga Fleet in the name of the coalition forces. I agreed to him. Anyway, according to the demarcation of the demilitarized zone, the Volga Fleet is unable to move forward. The north is blocked by Kolchak, and the south is all the way to  The Caspian Sea is no longer our territory!  What do you all think?  "

    "So, the diplomatic note from the Volga Federation just now was a trick played by the other party after we received the telegram from the coalition headquarters last night and failed to respond in time?" Bukharin suddenly realized as he patted his head.

    "I agree with Vladimir Ilyich. The Volga Federation is just a puppet. This morning's telegram is just a response to the request made by the coalition last night. If we don't want to go to war with Kolchak and the Volga Federation at the same time, then  We can only agree to the other party's request last night because we are worried that the Chinese will take advantage of it. If the coalition forces turn their backs and rush west instead of south after crossing the river, it will be difficult for the 10th and 8th Army to stop the enemy! "Trotsky!  He frowned.

    "Everyone is a swordsman and I am a fish. What is there to think about? Now buy time and concentrate our forces to completely defeat Kolchak. Only in this way can we have more confidence to bargain with the coalition forces. According to our previous judgment, if the coalition forces want to continue  To fight against us, there is no need to abandon the Kolchak regime and support the Volga Federation.

    I think our previous judgment was accurate. The purpose of the coalition signing the "Samara Peace Treaty" with us was to free up their hands to attack Ukraine and Poland, and to bring back the main German and Austrian forces from the Western Front as soon as possible!  They won't break up with us in the short term!  "Sverdlov slammed the battle map on the wall and gritted his teeth.

    "But in this way, the Volga River was originally the boundary river between us and the Volga Federation, but now it has become the other party's inland river. If we still lease the fleet to the other party now, I am afraid that we will not come back in the future!" Bukharin muttered at the side  road.

    "Nikolai Ivanovich, everything will be fine, wait until we defeat Kolchak first!" Trotsky put his hand on Bukharin's shoulder, looked into his eyes and said, look  It's not like I'm cheering Bukharin up, but I'm giving myself a reason.

    "Dzerzhinsky, go to the telegraph room and send a telegram in person. Be sure to contact the coalition headquarters and tell them that this is our final bottom line. Moscow has no way out!" Ulyanov ordered.

    "Wait, Vladimir Ilyich, I have an idea. You see, since we and the Volga Federation are now friendly countries, and the two sides have signed the "Samara Peace Treaty", we have also leased our Volga River Fleet  If you give it to the other party, should we get some benefits back?" Sverdlov rolled his eyes and asked.

    "Benefit? Yakov Mikhailovich, the other party said that the rent of the fleet in the Volga River area should be converted into food, but now it has to be credited. It will be paid when it is more abundant. What else do you want to exchange the fleet for? Weapons and  Don¡¯t even think about arms! It¡¯s absolutely impossible!¡± Trotsky said from the side.

    "Yes, besides food, what else do you want to get back? Let me tell you, Yakov Mikhailovich, I think we should try to negotiate and make transactions with the coalition and the Chinese king as little as possible. We will suffer every time  , and it¡¯s unspeakably painful, it feels like the other party has set traps everywhere, and you don¡¯t even know what¡¯s going on if you fall in!¡± Ulyanov said with lingering fear.

    "Intelligence! We need intelligence! Voroshilov's telegram said that Kolchak's West Route Army and Central Route Army did not cross the river at the scheduled location and were missing. Can we ask the coalition for information about their reconnaissance planes?  But the sky is hovering above our heads, bullying us into not wanting to fight them down. Since we have given so many benefits to the coalition forces, is it not an exaggeration to ask them for information on the movements of Kolchak's main force? "Sweer?  Delof said hehey.

    "You must be crazy, Yakov Mikhailovich. The Allied Forces and the Volga Federation are the most vicious enemies who wear the same pants as Kolchak. You still want information from them. This is simply ridiculous.  You must be confused! Who gave you this bad idea? This person should be handed over to the Cheka for review to see if he is an enemy lurking within us.thin!  "Bukharin waved his hands excitedly and shouted!

    "Don't talk about reconnaissance planes. I don't know how many of the Kolchak government and White Guards are the eyes, ears and informants of the coalition forces. If the other side is really willing to help us, they might be able to learn all of Kolchak's combat plans.  Get us the troops and deployment!" Trotsky's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but say.

    "Is this okay?" Ulyanov was a little unsure and asked several other Central Committee members.
