    As he spoke, Shatenko drew a line on the map, pointed to the location 30 kilometers west of Leskov Mountain, and said, "We should be able to reach this location at dawn tomorrow. There is a railway crossing there, and the troops are close to it.  It¡¯s time to take a half-day break to catch up on some sleep. Of course, you have to stay hidden!¡±

    "Then I plan to set up a trap here and ambush the opponent's vanguard. I will focus on using the firepower of two anti-aircraft artillery battalions and one heavy machine gun battalion. If the ambush is good, I may kill one of the opponent's regiments. Four cavalry battalions.  With the other two heavy machine gun battalions, we will move to the south and prepare to attack the opponent's flank. If the opponent deploys heavy troops to attack us under the cover of artillery! "

    "Then I will lead the team and run south! If we run south along this railway, I guess the enemy will not be willing to let us go. Moreover, Kolchak is also worried that his flank will be outflanked by us. He will at least send 1 to 2  A division is coming to chase us! We don¡¯t need to pay attention to the infantry division, because it can¡¯t catch up. As for the cavalry division, we can only retreat while fighting and look for opportunities to kill the carbine. Even if we don¡¯t have a chance, at least we will lead the opponent to the south!¡±

    While talking about his Russian plan, Shatenko used red and blue pencils to draw the route of advance, ambush and retreat on the map. This made several generals present look at him with admiration. Apart from anything else, he could do so in such a short time.  Being able to find out this little thing, this Xia Jianke is really eye-catching.

    Kamenev, political commissar of the Front Army, secretly sighed and wondered how Tsaritsin could cultivate so many capable generals with so many talented people, while most of the Soviet Red Army's Eastern Front Army were just talkers.  The Battle of Ufa revealed its prototype. No wonder this Shatenko was able to lead the cavalry to break out of the encirclement of the Allied Powers. Love is not just about luck and luck!

    "Yefim Afanasyevich, although your strategy looks good, it may not be able to deal a major blow to the enemy, and it is very likely that your anti-aircraft artillery battalion and heavy machine gun battalion will be defeated by the enemy's superior artillery fire!"  Berzin was no longer idle at this moment. He opened his mouth to find faults. He really didn't mean to bury Xia Jianke, but thought that there were indeed loopholes in Xia Jianke's battle plan!

    The originally lively atmosphere in the war room came to a halt, and both Voroshilov and Chernavin frowned. At least in their eyes, Shatenko was indeed a leading talent, and with just such a little effort, he was already better than  Draw up a formed tactical play.

    In Xia Jianke's entire plan just now, he used the mobility of the cavalry detachment to force a march to surprise him, and he also concealed and waited to show the enemy's weakness. Then there was an ambush and luring the enemy. How to fight a weak enemy, what to do when a strong enemy is encountered,  When it comes to what to do with the infantry and what to do if the opponent's cavalry outflanks them, they have already thought about it comprehensively in such a short period of time. How come this Berzin can still pick out the assassins?

    "Karl Ivanovich, I just made a hasty battle plan. There are bound to be mistakes and omissions. Since you see that there is a problem, you might as well tell me and let everyone know the details. When everyone adds firewood, the flames will rise. I believe you  Your combat experience must be much richer than mine, especially since you led the Third Army to confront Kolchak in Kazan for so long, I believe your opinions must be very valuable, I am all ears!¡±

    As he spoke, Shatenko handed the red and blue pencils to Karl Ivanovich Berzin, who stood up. He sat back in his chair, his face as usual, but he was quite disapproving in his heart, but for the sake of the unity of the Third Army  In order to save face for Berzin, the commander of the group army, Xia Jianke kept his attitude relatively low.

    Berzin was not polite. He took the red and blue pencils and walked to the map. Voroshilov, Chernawin, Kamenev and others all came closer to hear what Berzin had to say. The front army  Political Commissar Kamenev was also a little unhappy. He felt that Berzin's tail was a little too high and his ego was too inflated. If this continued, sooner or later he would cause trouble!

    The commander of the Fifth Army, Kamenev, the political commissar Lyubimov, and the chief of staff Shaposhnikov were waiting to see what happened. Shatenko was able to speak eloquently with such little effort, and their impressions were the same as Voroshilov's.  , all felt that Xia Jianke did have two skills in the military, and it was not just luck that broke through the encirclement of the Allied Powers on the Ufa battlefield.

    "Everyone, Yefim Afanasyevich's style of play is not to say that it is not feasible, but I think he did not consider one thing, that is, Kolchak's main force is attacking westward, not traveling through the mountains.  They are here for a water vacation, so the opponent's vanguard will already be equipped with strong troops and firepower.

    To put it bluntly, if I were Kolchak, after seeing the power and maneuverability of our Red Army¡¯s armored trains on the Chivellisk battlefield, I wouldIt is hard to imagine that when Kolchak attacked along the railway line, he would not use the armored train as the pioneer!  "

    As he spoke, Berzin used a pencil to draw an arrow on the map on the railway line from Yadlin to Rescovo, and at the top of the arrow he drew an armored train locomotive.  After enlightenment, he continued,

    "Efim Afanasyevich used two anti-aircraft artillery battalions and one heavy machine gun battalion of the cavalry detachment to block the opponent head-on. If the opponent's forward force was an armored train, then our side would be at a disadvantage in terms of strength and firepower.  We are obviously at a disadvantage. One of our armored trains carries 18 carriages, nine of which are equipped with 18 cannons, the remaining four carriages are equipped with 24 Maxim heavy machine guns, and the remaining five carriages carry a reinforced battalion of infantry! "

    "I guess the armored trains of Kolchak's White Guards are not much different from ours. Of course, our heavy machine gun battalions can't do anything about the armored trains. They are just two anti-aircraft gun battalions. Since they are only equipped with 20mm anti-aircraft guns, that thing is to put it bluntly.  They are not considered artillery. They are enough to hit aircraft, trucks and ordinary armored vehicles with a thickness of 9mm. They are absolutely unable to hit armored trains. We have done experiments and found that at a distance of 500 meters, the German 20mm anti-aircraft guns are absolutely incapable of hitting them.  Wear the 28mm thick armor on the front of the armored train!¡±

    Berzin obviously meant what he said. The Soviet Red Army generals present, including Shatenko himself, nodded slightly, feeling that they had not considered that when Kolchak attacked westward along the railway line, he would probably use an armored train to open the way.  Vanguard was a mistake.

    Voroshilov and Chernavin were equally shocked. Obviously, although this Berzin was a bit arrogant and domineering, he really had something in his stomach. He was not an ordinary commander. At least he was very considerate and comprehensive, but he was too temperamental.  bad!  Not easy to get along with!
