    At the military meeting of senior generals, almost all the White Guard generals unanimously declared their allegiance to the new leader Denikin, while Krasnov, who announced his resignation, left sadly. Not even a general who originally belonged to his subordinates came to the train station to see him off.  , of course, Denikin's security was also tight. The new leader of the Don Cossacks sent his own generals to lead a regiment of troops to escort the Krasnov family and their luggage to Ukraine by train.

    Denikin met Peter Nikolayevich Krasnov's request to live in exile in Germany via Ukraine. Of course, the gold and silver jewelry he took with him should be able to maintain Krasnov's dignity in any European country.  His adjutant, captain of the guard, housekeeper and his wife all continued to follow him.

    Later that day, Anton Ivanovich Denikin, on behalf of the Don and North Caucasus Autonomous Government, officially announced that Head of State Krasnov had resigned from all posts due to health reasons, stepped down and left for Europe to recuperate.  Denikin took office as the second head of state and prime minister of the Don and North Caucasus Autonomous Government.

    Fitzheraurov was appointed commander of the Don Army, and Mamonov served as the commander of the Kuban Army. The two became military ministers and foreign ministers of the Don and North Caucasus Autonomous Government respectively. Denikin's own  Although the direct generals have all been promoted one after another, they are not as good as the complacent Fitzheraulov and Mamonov.

    In fact, in just a few days, Denikin not only used Krasnov to establish the autonomous government of the Don and North Caucasus, but also used the Don and North Caucasus's pledge of nomination and stepping stone to properly resolve the issue of joining the Volga Federation.  To join the Volga Federation is to choose to join the Allied camp. This is Denikin's own choice all along, and it is also the concept he instilled in his generals.

    For the Cossacks, the separatist tendencies have been partially vented. After all, after the Don River and the North Caucasus join the Volga Federation, they will receive the treatment of an autonomous republic, and the food shipped on the train from Tsaritsyn that night will  The first phase of the Southern Campaign, which announced the Allied Powers, was still focused on toleration and a food offensive. It was at a time when the supply was low, and the food shipped by Tsaritsin was a timely help.

    Of course, on the one hand, Wu Peifu's Southern Front Army is still in the process of reorganization, mobilization and replenishment. On the other hand, it is also a manifestation of Wang Geng's trust in employing people and not using lavish tactics on those he doubts. The Allied Powers and the Volga Federation gave Denikin enough buffer time to  In order to rectify the internal situation, at the same time, taking into account the ethnic issues in the Don, Kuban, Kalmykia and Astrakhan regions have always been complicated.

    The Volga Federation finally gave Denikin the establishment of three army groups to properly arrange and balance the various forces and mountains among Denikin's men. Of course, at this time, Denikin could only gather more than 40,000 people with all his calculations. Krasno  Although the husband was properly dealt with, there were always some die-hard subordinates who were unwilling to work for Denikin to see the face of the Kuban Cossacks, so they left the military camp and fled westward into Ukraine to join the ranks of the local Ukrainian Cossacks.

    Denikin actually turned a blind eye and let his direct troops escort or monitor these people leaving. Of course, there was nothing to say about those who dared to stay in the country and become bandits and robbers. Resolute eradication was just a sign of the Allied Powers.  The coalition boasts that it sincerely made the right choice.

    The biggest winner of the twists and turns on July 24, 1918 was obviously the Volga Federation and the Allied Allied Forces behind it. For the Don White Guards, they lost their identity as an army under Kolchak's Kazan regime, but gained a more powerful one.  With potential and bright future opportunities, Denikin's arrogance even believed that when he joined the Volga Federation, it was Pepelyaev, the federal cabinet prime minister, who should be anxious.

    For Denikin, he always believed in pragmatism and making use of his abilities. Of course, he also had his own ideals and pursuits. Denikin could see that the Allied forces would naturally dissipate sooner or later after the war, but the Volga Federation  At this moment, it seems that it has the best chance to obtain the benefits of the war, and to stand firm after the war, becoming the most potential candidate force to change its name to the Russian Federation.

    As for whether the Entente would be defeated again in the battle with the German and Austrian Allies, Denikin had his own judgment. No matter the outcome of the war, the United States must be the biggest winner. Germany and Austria did not have the strength to conquer the world.  No matter what, I can live in exile in the United States by virtue of my love for fighting in the Allied Powers!

    Denikin even knew that the uncrowned king of Asia, the commander-in-chief of the Eastern Front of the Allied Powers, was in fact the spokesperson of the United States in Asia. He was inextricably linked to the U.S. government at all levels. This king of China  The main industry is not even necessarily in China, but still in the United States!

    Anton Ivanovich Denikin is full of confidence in his choice. In his opinion, this land is Chinese.  Japanese, British?. The French will have to leave sooner or later. Only native-born Russians can take root and survive. Now that he has chosen to join the Volga Federation, the Volga Federation may become the successor of the new Great Russia in the future.

    Of course, the situation in the North Caucasus has always been complicated and changeable. Therefore, based on various considerations, Denikin hopes that by the end of July, when he has everything in order, he can officially declare the Don and North Caucasus Autonomous Republic.  Join the Volga Federation.

    However, it turned out that this was Denikin's wishful thinking. Wu Peifu, commander of the Southern Front of the Allied Powers, had no intention of continuing to watch him tossing in the south, and Wang Geng also hoped that Denikin could come to Samara to take office as the federal deputy prime minister as soon as possible.  The implication is that the price offered by the Allied Powers and the Volga Federation is already quite high. You, Denikin, have no choice but to join the Federation without hesitation.

    In fact, although Denikin obtained the establishment of three army groups, the Don and North Caucasus White Guards, which had been severely weakened after three failures in the Tsaritsyn Battle, could only muster the strength of five divisions, including two  The infantry division, three Cossack cavalry divisions, and the rest of the troops are all empty. It will take a long time to recruit and arm them.

    For the generals under Denikin, it turned out that the generals from the Don River were more anxious. On the one hand, their troops were small and weak, with insufficient weapons and food and pay. Therefore, they hoped to mount the Volga as soon as possible.  The Federation's signature feature is not only the replacement of brand new military uniforms, but also the opportunity to change weapons.

    After learning that the Volga Federation voluntarily gave up the land south of Tsaritsyn to Kolchak, the Volga Federation actually provided Kazan with 90 cannons, 600 Maxim heavy machine guns, and a large number of artillery shells and bullets, Denikin's  The generals under his command could no longer sit still and urged their boss to quickly put up the signboard first!
