    "Vasily Ivanovich, although the 4th Division has a small number of troops and poor equipment, the boys are all brave and fearless workers. Soldiers of Bolshevik origin. There is no need to talk about the bloody feud with the White Guards. It is a mission to go out to find out the true nature of the enemy.  Just leave it to our 4th Division! Commander, I will personally lead the 13th Infantry Regiment out! Even if I can't kill you, I'll scare the enemy!" The acting commander of the 4th Division, Yakir, stood up and patted his chest.  But he shook a few times unnaturally, and his voice was a little wavy.

    The division commanders once again looked at each other, but they didn't expect that Yakir, who had just escaped from the disaster by running to diarrhea, would dare to pat his chest and say that he would lead the team to attack. It was quite impressive for a moment. Tuhaqie  Before Vsky frowned and could not speak, Kobozev, the political commissar of the group army next to him, jumped out again and shouted,

    "I said Comrade Acting Division Commander, do you think this is as simple as tightening screws in a Moscow factory? This is war, and the opposite side is the Cossack White Guard cavalry armed to the teeth. The soldiers of the 4th Division did not even fire their guns a few times.  How can we use infantry to engage in field battles with the opponent¡¯s cavalry? It¡¯s just nonsense!¡±

    "Why am I fooling around? Although the 4th Division is mostly made up of new soldiers, when they joined the Workers' Red Guard in Moscow, they all had to deal with rifles. They just aimed and pulled the trigger to fire. What if the opponent was a cavalry? They just lay down.  Should we use a volley of volleys to deal with him when he falls down? If he can't hit the man, can he still miss the horse?

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Comrade Political Commissar, I strongly object to your discrimination against the new soldiers of the 4th Division. Are they like mules or horses?  How about you lead the attack with the 13th Infantry Regiment for me?  Doesn¡¯t the political commissar have to charge forward?  The political commissar of the group army rushed to the front, and the morale of the troops must be extremely high!  "

    Yakir blushed and retorted, saying that this guy's temper was rough when he was the leader of the workers' picket detachment in Moscow, but he really didn't put too much emphasis on the political commissar of the army who was also airborne and appointed to the 1st Army.  In my eyes, I am now a division-level commander, not a political cadre like you who only knows how to shout slogans and label me.

    Here, the 3rd Division Commander Ubolevich and the 5th Division Commander Kork almost laughed without covering their mouths when they heard this. The tense atmosphere in the group army's war room was relieved a lot, and the political commissar Kobozev was so angry that smoke was rising from his orifices.  He pointed his finger at Yakir and was speechless for a moment. Furmanov and Xia Boyang looked on with cold eyes. Compared with Kobozev, the new political commissar and chief of staff of the group army, they admired the commander of the 4th Division Yakir more.  Kiel's temper, however, can a regiment of the 4th Division go out to challenge the Cossack cavalry alone?  This is too childish!

    At this time, a rumble of artillery suddenly sounded from the north of the city, and then the artillery shells roared towards the northern defense line of Saransk. The expressions of everyone in the war room tightened. Tukhachevsky looked serious and simply took everyone with him.  Climbing the stairs to the commanding heights of the bell tower of the inner city fortress, a group of division commanders and political commissars of the 1st Army, led by Tukhachevsky, hid behind the battlements of the towers on the bell tower and looked to the north of the city with binoculars. They saw countless raindrops of artillery shells.  It also fell on the defense line of the 2nd Division in the north of the city. After the explosion, bricks and stones flew everywhere and the smoke filled the air.

    "The opponent's artillery position is quite large. Judging from the density of dropped bombs, the firepower is actually not strong!" Tukhachevsky murmured while looking at the north of the city with a telescope.

    "Indeed, it's strange. Listen to the sound and look at the movement. At most 2 artillery batteries are firing, but look at the posture of at least 5 artillery batteries spread out behind the opponent's position!" Xia Boyang also immediately noticed that the enemy's shelling from the north was a bit strange.

    "The intelligence from the front army headquarters said that the Kolchaksi cluster has at least 10 artillery batteries? How come there are only 2? Even if the opponent's leading troops only have 2 divisions, there should be 4 artillery batteries of artillery!  "Kobozev, the political commissar of the group army, interjected from the side.

    "Commander, the enemy seems to be about to attack. Look, they are lining up! These White Guards are not tired. They were running around the city just now. Now they don't even have to eat, so they are going to attack?" The speaker was Sa.  Acting commander of the 4th Lansk Infantry Division Yakir.

    "It's a bluff! The nearest cavalry is at least 3 kilometers away from us. What kind of attack is this? Furmanov, tell your 2nd Division to pay attention to artillery. The machine guns must not fire without an order!" Tukhachevs  Ji breathed a sigh of relief for some reason. If the opponent was bombarded by 60 cannons from 10 artillery batteries, this guy might be really nervous. But it was obvious that the number of artillerymen on the front line of the opponent was not large. Could it be that the shells were  Not enough, so the remaining three artillery batteries didn't fire?

    "Commander, I don't think we should wait any longer. Let me lead a regiment to attack from the south of the city. Just to try the opponent's skills, just transfer a regiment from the 5th Division to me!" Xia Boyang said impatiently from the side.  .

    "Vasily Ivanovich, although the 4th Division has few troops and poor equipment, the south of the city is my defense area. If I want to attack, of course I will lead the troops of the 4th Division to attack. Why do you need to lead the regiment of the 5th Division to attack?  ?commanderComrade Communist Party member, I request the artillery group of the group army to be ready to support and respond to us at any time. I will take a regiment out and first drive away the White Guard cavalry in the two villages five kilometers south of the city!  When the time comes to capture a few prisoners, we will know all about the enemy's reality!  "

    ??The acting commander of the 4th Division, Yona Emanujlovic Yakir, rolled up his sleeves and raised his nose a little, as if he didn't know the heights of the sky!

    "There is no joke in the army. Comrade Yakir, division commander, it is absolutely unacceptable for your soldiers to run away and have diarrhea after leaving the city! When the time comes, I will block the bridge and treat them as deserters and kill them for you. Don't blame me for not making it clear beforehand!"  Haczewski sullenly frightened the young acting division commander!

    There are roads and railways to the north of Saransk that lead directly to Nizhny Novgorod, 250 kilometers to the north. To the east of the city is the national highway to Simbirsk, and to the southeast of the city are the railway lines to Penza in the south.  The highway lines are parallel, and the southwest corner of the city is the tree-lined road leading to the beautiful small town of Ruzayevka. This small town is 16 kilometers south of Saransk. It was founded in 1631 and Saransk established a fortress in 1641.  The history is even longer.

    The so-called moat of Saransk is formed entirely along the Insar River, a tributary of the local Volga River, in the east of the city, in the south of the city, it was manually dug, and in the north and west of the city, it was widened by the tributaries of the Insar River itself.  , if you look at the entire road in and out of Saransk and the river from the air, it looks a bit like the human totem that Beijing uses to welcome you.
