    "This, the situation is unknown. According to the information learned from the people who were driven over from Adelin, the enemies who occupied Adelin were at least five divisions, and the enemies who occupied Reskovo last night were only transporting troops.  There are more than ten trains, and there are at least two armored trains. The other side has at least one infantry and cavalry regiment on both sides of the railway to search. Counting this, the enemy occupying Reskovo will not be less than three divisions! "

    The commander of the reconnaissance company felt a little guilty while answering. In fact, his reconnaissance company encountered detours from at least two cavalry battalions of the other side. If it hadn't been for running fast, the reconnaissance company might have really made dumplings for the White Guard cavalry, so he was the first to do so.  My intuition is that the enemy is coming fiercely and has a lot of troops. Although I haven't been able to approach the train station in person, the information I learned from the fellow villagers is pretty close, right?

    "Efim Afanasyevich, Comrade Political Commissar, I don't think this can continue. If we are always afraid of exposing our target and don't even dare to catch it with our tongues, how can we understand the situation clearly? How about I lead a battalion?"  To explore the enemy's true identity?" The person who spoke was the regimental staff officer, Belov, the chief of staff of the cavalry detachment at the moment.  .

    Speaking of which, the Soviet Red Army cavalry detachment led by Xia Denko is the size of a reinforced regiment in terms of strength. However, with two anti-aircraft artillery battalions and three heavy machine gun battalions, its firepower alone even exceeds that of a cavalry brigade!

    As soon as Belov spoke, Horchov's face turned red and he stopped complaining. During the Buzuluk breakout battle, Horchov was the squad leader who broke out with the acting battalion commander Belov. Although  This young battalion commander Belov is only 21 years old, but he has some impressive abilities in his movements. At least he is the leader who can stabilize the spirit of the team without being alarmed. What's more, Belov has become the regiment leader at this moment.  Senior staff officer, two ranks higher than Horchov in terms of position alone.

    Shatenko frowned. The enemy's fighting style from Cheboksary always made him a little confused. In Yadlin, the White Guards had strengthened to at least five divisions, so when they arrived in Reskovo, they only had three divisions.  , and further to the southeastern suburbs of Nizhny Novgorod, how many troops are left?  Is there only one division left?

    Kolchak is planning to use a White Guard division to attack the two Soviet armies in Nizhny Novgorod?  This made Xia Jianke puzzled. The guy bent over and stared at the map spread on the maza for a long time. He raised his head and said to Belov and the battalion commanders,

    "Kolchak's offensive posture was very well prepared. Since he only rested in Cheboksary for three days before rushing to attack westward, most of them wanted to seize the opportunity of our assembled troops in Nizhny Novgorod.  Do you think this is the case before the formation and replenishment are completed and the defense line is consolidated?

    Belov and several battalion commanders nodded when they heard this. Shatenko held his chin and continued, "Kolchak likes to rely on railway lines to mobilize and transport troops by train. Previously in Cheboksary, he built  The day after the railway was opened, the main force of five divisions appeared in Chivelisk to launch an attack! "

    "Now that the railway from Yadlin to Reskovo has been built, why didn't more troop trains come from the direction of Cheboksary this morning? Assuming what the local people said is true, ten trains  The troop train can transport at most 30,000 people, which is only the strength of three divisions.

    The opponent had five divisions in Yadlin, but now there are three divisions left. If 1 or 2 divisions are left to garrison Leskov to protect the retreat, does Kolchak plan to use 1 or 2 divisions to go there?  Conquer Nizhny Novgorod?  How can this be!  "Xia Jianke shook his head as he said, "I always felt that something was wrong, but I didn't understand it for a while!  What do you think?"

    Several cavalry battalion commanders looked at each other in confusion upon hearing this. Battalion commanders like these, who are responsible for commanding battles at the grassroots level, usually consider Xia Jianke's problem. They are all tasks assigned by their superiors and carried out and completed by their subordinates.  How to fight is a matter for the superior leaders, and how the fight is performed is a matter for us commanders. The question asked by the political commissar of the Army Group at this moment is that ordinary regiment commanders and regimental chiefs of staff in the Soviet Red Army may not consider that much.

    "Comrade Political Commissar, what do you mean, is that the main force of Kolchak should appear in Reskovo now, instead of having only three divisions and ten wagons transporting troops now?" said Bielo, chief of staff of the cavalry detachment.  The husband asked boldly.

    "Yes! Things are very strange. Unless Kolchak is not ready yet, or the opponent's transportation capacity is insufficient and the trains are not enough, otherwise by this time his forward troops should have already rushed to Kostvo, 64 kilometers northwest.  It's over, and his main force should at least come up to Reskovo with a few more divisions!" Shatenko said with a frown.

    ¡°Comrade political commissar, no, comrade detachment leader, I think it¡¯s useless for us to think so much. Otherwise, we can take advantage of the fact that the enemy¡¯s main force has not yet arrived at Reskovo, and use a sneak attack to attack the opponent¡¯s train.How about standing still, hit and run, test the enemy's strength first!  "Sorokhkin, commander of the 1st Cavalry Battalion, was impatient and couldn't help but say.

    Hearing this, many of the other battalion commanders nodded. Ruslan, the battalion commander of the 1st anti-aircraft artillery battalion, slapped his thigh and said,

    "Comrade Political Commissar, let's not hesitate. Either fight or leave. It's not a good idea to stay here and think about it. What if the White Guards have already come up from both sides? It's good to be hidden in the woods, but it's not convenient for cavalry to gallop and there are no carriages.  It's a good passage. If you ask me, let's rush over and beat the enemy hard when they are not prepared, and then retreat. It would be better if we can grab a few tongues to find out the situation clearly! "

    After hearing this, Xia Jianke sighed and explained, "Comrades, battalion commanders, we are not strong enough. The sword is only threatening when it is unsheathed. What I worry about is dragging it on the battlefield in Reskovo.  To stop the enemy, it is better to insert the pole in the direction of Yadlin. If Kolchak's main force has arrived at Rescovo by train at this time, we will directly insert his relatively empty rear Yadlin to beat him!  "

    "I understand! Comrade Political Commissar, what you mean is that since the enemy's main force has not come to Reskovo, it means that the enemy is either still staying in Cheboksary or on the Yadlin line. If we go to Yadlin  If we hit the iron plate, this battle will lose the meaning of avoiding the real and attacking the weak. Our cavalry is obviously no match for the armored train in a head-to-head confrontation!" Belov suddenly realized.

    Some of the battalion commanders were silent, some nodded, and some shook their heads. Obviously, as battalion-level cadres, many of them were just company and platoon commanders. They were asked to consider such a complicated issue, and it was beyond their capabilities.  The range of capabilities and habits, for them, is to either fight or leave. The order is to stop here and hold a Zhuge Liang meeting. Three cobblers may be able to defeat one Zhuge Liang. It will be very difficult for ten cobblers to unify their ideas.  Got it!
