    "However, it is good to go to the southwest, but my Lord Commander-in-Chief, how far does it have to go? How can we guarantee our logistics and transportation lines? The local people's food has been snatched away by the Soviet Red Army and the Bolsheviks. We can't do it again."  Going to collect food will not help. "It was Krashilnikov who spoke.

    "Logistics support is indeed a problem. Fortunately, as long as the Soviet 8th Army is defeated, the local people will not be able to collect food. Will we not buy it from the Volga Federation? When we take Syzran, the capital of the Volga Federation will be across the street.  Samara is gone, can we still have no food? Vasily Nikolayevich Pepelyayev is the Prime Minister of the Volga Federation, and his relationship with us is not over yet!¡±

    The supreme governor of Russia, His Excellency Kolchak, looks confident. This guy has become more and more experienced in mobilizing and cheering up his generals, and his ability to draw cakes to satisfy his hunger is getting better and better.

    "Well, Commander-in-Chief, I heard that this Syzlan, like Simbirsk, belongs to the non-military buffer zone designated by the Volga Federation. Although it still belongs to the Soviet Russian regime in name, it has actually become the sphere of influence of the Volga Federation. We  I'm afraid we can't allow troops to enter the 50-kilometer non-military buffer zone without permission," said Corbin, commander of the 3rd Cossack Cavalry Division, rubbing his head.

    "Yes, yes, Prime Minister Pepe is very arrogant now. The population of the Volga Federation is almost over 10 million, and they accept all comers. Basically, as long as you are willing to swear allegiance to the federal government, you can naturalize and become a federal citizen.  Status, if you are willing to farm, the government will rent land, farm tools, livestock, and seeds to help you settle down and start a business. If you are willing to work as a worker, the treatment will be better. I heard that places like Ufa, Samara, Saratov, and Tsaritsyn are being rebuilt everywhere.  Recruitment of workers in the factory is very hot! We really don¡¯t dare to enter this non-military buffer zone without permission, right?¡±

    The person who spoke was Pyatov, the commander of the 3rd Cossack Cavalry Division. He thought to himself that at this moment, let alone the Kazan White Guards, even the Kazan White Guards and the Soviet Red Army combined would be no match for the Volga Federal Defense Force.  Not to mention the Eastern Front Allied Forces of the Allied Powers who support the Volga Federation and the Commander-in-Chief, the King of China, who dares to provoke them?

    I heard that Denikin was so awesome in the Don River and North Caucasus that he made Krasnov look round and flat at times, but after he willingly surrendered to the Volga Federation, he just kept his tail between his legs and behaved half-heartedly.  They didn't dare to talk or make any moves. In front of General Wu, the commander of the Allied Southern Front, he looked down like a little follower.

    At this time, Kolchak, who was on the front line, only had the 3rd and 4th Cossack Cavalry Divisions beside him. The remaining three divisions were still moving slowly southward within a range of 30 kilometers north and south of Aratori, looking at Kolchak.  What he was trying to defeat was a long snake formation. In fact, no one fully knew what this guy was thinking. He didn't give up the opportunity to turn back north and fight back when he was attacked by the opponent's main force on the northern front.

    "There is no need to worry about the issue of the demilitarized buffer zone. The Volga Federation can fall out with us at any time. There is no need to make excuses. Last time they suddenly announced the establishment of a demilitarized zone. Maybe they were afraid that one of our two cavalry divisions going south would  We discovered the ambush of the Soviet 10th Army, and later we learned that Voroshilov ordered to use the Volga River Fleet to transport an infantry division to prepare to move north to seize the retreat of the 1st and 2nd Cossack Cavalry Divisions! "

    Although Kolchak may not be as sure as he said, in front of a group of subordinates and generals, he said he was confident and didn't worry at all.

    Here, the Chief of Staff of the Western Group and Cavalry General Krashilnikov looked at the map and couldn't help but said, "Commander-in-Chief, if we go east, we can go to Simbirsk, which will directly take the retreat of the Soviet 10th Army.  Isn't it good? The opponent's defense line is on the Buyinsk line. If we go north from Simbirsk and stab that Gidis in the back, we will definitely wipe out the opponent together with Hastings!  The 8th Army, which only has 4 divisions, has no power to fight against us!"

    "Of course, going east is also an option, but it's not worthwhile to go back. Even if we don't go, the Soviet 10th Army may not be able to stop the 90,000-strong Eastern Army led by Guillaume Nikolayevich.  I'm worried that once we go east, the other side will retreat all the way south for fear of being cut off. The farther this battlefield is from Kazan, the harder it will be for us to supply logistics! The Volga River is now the Volga!  It¡¯s like an inland river in the Federation, so we definitely can¡¯t mess with them!¡±

    Kolchak held his chin and stared at the map again and again. He felt that it would be better to wait for the East Cluster to fight with the Soviet 10th Army before outflanking it to the east. Of course, if he could defeat the Soviet 8th Army in one fell swoop with his mobility,  If we go north to outflank him, it will be perfect!

    ¡°Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief, when the Western Group set out south from Cheboksary, didn¡¯t you say that we were going to Saransk to capture the Budyonny Cavalry Army and Tukhache?Did you go to the dumplings of the 1st Army of Russia? How come you are here? Could it be that we let that boy Tukhachevsky go in vain?  Isn't this a bit of a pity?  "Corbin, commander of the 3rd Cossack Cavalry Division, couldn't help but say.

    "Alexey Vasilyevich, the battle must be fought. Don't worry about the more than 40,000 defeated soldiers of the 1st Army. The trauma of the annihilation of the entire army in the Battle of Ufa cannot be recovered in ten and a half months."  , To hit a snake seven inches, the main forces of the Soviet Volga Front are now the 3rd Army on the northern front and the 10th Army on the southern front. The northern front will let the other side stand for the time being. If we can annihilate the 10th and 10th Army on the southern front  The 8th Army, the victory of the battle must be ours. As for Tukhachevsky¡¯s 1st Army, if he is willing to come out, of course we are welcome. If he doesn¡¯t come out, we will leave them alone!¡±

    Kolchak smiled and comforted his beloved general. Pyatov, the commander of the 4th Cavalry Division here, couldn't help but ask again,

    "Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, why are our remaining three cavalry divisions lagging behind? Is it possible that you are still planning to make a comeback and take the retreat of the Soviet Red Army's counterattack forces in Cheboksary?" Corbin asked.  He held his head and continued to ask.

    "Virtual reality is the way to use military force. Even you can't figure out what my intention is in setting up such a long snake formation nearly 100 kilometers long. Then Voroshilov doesn't understand even more. Didn't the rearguard troops say  Have we discovered a Soviet regiment-sized cavalry detachment operating on our flank? I really want the rearguard 5th Division to eat up the opponent's cavalry unit. Of course, this depends on the commander of the 5th Division, Mikola.  Antonyevich Ishchenko¡¯s savvy and luck!¡±
