    But the only variable is the German 10th Army in Ukraine. Although this 10th Army commanded by German General Wilhelm Greiner is the second-rate German army on the Eastern Front, its combat effectiveness is by no means an idle force. The 3 infantry corps of the German 10th Army  The total strength of the 9 German divisions stationed in Ukraine is close to 120,000. If the Germans are determined to defend Ukraine, I think it will be a pipe dream to win Ukraine in the short term with only the Allied Allied Forces' Southwest Front, which has a strength of nearly 200,000!  "

    The speaker was Sverdlov. As the Vice Chairman of the Supreme Military Council of the Soviet Union, he also took on the task of commanding the uprising together with Trotsky during the October Revolution last year. He was definitely not someone who knew nothing about military matters.  I will stand up and encourage Ulyanov and the Central Committee members present, and the reasons analyzed are not bad.  §êw§ë

    "Well this analysis is not enough. We will know what happened on the Ukrainian battlefield today by tomorrow. Dzerzhinsky has personally arranged and dispatched the Cheka intelligence team to penetrate into the border areas of Voronezh and Belgorod to find out the situation.  , and several other groups have already taken trains to Kiev, hoping to find out the real battlefield progress from within the Ukrainians!¡±

    ""Ulyanov obviously appreciated Sverdlov's timely encouragement, and inadvertently revealed the reason why Dzerzhinsky was absent from Moscow today. The guy then turned around and continued to ask,

    "Comrade Trotsky, in your opinion, how should Chicherin restore the Volga Federation? How should the war situation on the southern front be dealt with?"

    July 30, 1918, 23:10, Grand Conference Room of the Central Committee of the Soviet Union, Moscow Kremlin

    Trotsky was a little embarrassed by Ulyanov's series of questions. The founder of the Soviet Red Army and Chairman of the Supreme Military Council did not think about it for a moment, so he simply kicked the ball to Vice Chairman of the Supreme Military Council, S.  Wildlov,

    "Comrade Chairman, the situation is quite serious for us. I am still thinking about the question you asked, but since Comrade Sverdlov is the commander of the Volga Front, I think we should listen to his thoughts first, at least Moscow  The troops in the east, mainly the Volga Front, are fighting under the direct leadership and command of Comrade Sverdlov! "

    "" Seeing this, Ulyanov had to turn around and ask Sverdlov. In fact, Sverdlov had always been Ulyanov's staunch supporter and closest comrade-in-arms, but since taking Joseph, he was disbanded.  After the Eastern Front and the Southern Front were reorganized and established the Volga Military District and the Volga Front, Yakov Mikhailovich Sverdlov, who served as the commander of the Volga Military District and the Front, said in the words of Comrade Chairman,  A bit self-aggrandizing.

    In the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, Sverdlov was a member of the Central Committee and a member of the Politburo and secretary, responsible for personnel and organizational work.  Ministry of Resources, and as the Vice Chairman of the Supreme Military Council of the Soviet Union, the highest leadership body of the Soviet Red Army, he is equivalent to the Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces. This does not include Sverdlov¡¯s latest concurrent post as Commander of the Volga Military District and Front.  , which gave him the strongest endorsement for his previous prominent positions within the party and government.

    The 33-year-old Sverdlov can be regarded as a master who was very proud of his talent and took orders at a young age. In fact, the same is true for the former "Beiyang 1917 741 Five Factions" Benchka and the Ministry of Internal Affairs.  Sverdlov was in charge of the department in charge, but after deciding to let him concurrently serve as the commander of the Volga Military District and the Front Army, Ulyanov nominated Comrade Dzerzhinsky, chairman of the All-Russian Counterrevolutionary Committee and member of the Central Committee, to take over the post of internal affairs  People's Commissar, and with Trotsky's acquiescence, promoted Dzerzhinsky to the level of a member of the Politburo in one fell swoop.

    In fact, this was Ulyanov and Trotsky's manipulation of Sverdlov's decentralization. After the Kremlin's power structure changed and balanced back and forth, it became what it is now, with no one forming  Among the new members of the Politburo, Sverdlov inadvertently became a loner, and Dzerzhinsky jumped from a relatively low-ranking member of the Central Committee to the No. 5 member of the Central Committee of Soviet Russia.  figure.

    In the Politburo of the Central Committee of the Soviet Union, Ulyanov and Dzerzhinsky were in the same group, Trotsky and Zinoviev were in the same group, and in the middle were bachelors who picked a lot of people and ate the grass.  It¡¯s Sverdlov who is a naughty man. Of course, on the other hand, others can also think that whichever side Sverdlov supports, whichever side¡¯s ideas will be passed, the 33-year-old No. 3 figure in the Central Committee of Soviet Russia  , whose status is quite special and subtle. He is not only the rising star that "Beiyang 1917" Ulyanov and Trotsky want to be wary of, but also the first choice to win over. Of course, if they want to be as confidant as before, I'm afraid neither of them can do it.  arrive.

    Of course, Sverdlov himself is a very good person with strong organizational and working abilities. In Wang Geng¡¯s previous life, Lenin in 1918After the assassination, Sverdlov personally implemented the "Red Terror" policy. After Sverdlov died suddenly of being infected with the Spanish flu in 1919, all the leaders of Soviet Russia were greatly saddened. Ulyanov had  The Soviet Congress said: "Sverdlov's absence is an immeasurable loss to the Soviet. In the future, we will have to organize another organization with dozens of people to complete the work of just one person."

    Ambition naturally grows quietly with the growth of status and power, but sometimes the parties involved may not realize it. This is the case with Sverdlov, who now holds the power of the Soviet party, government and military and is responsible for commanding the largest front army.  In fact, Ulyanov ignored Trotsky as the commander of the front army and stared at Trotsky to ask questions about the situation on the southern front. This in itself made Sverdlov puzzled. Seeing Trotsky at this moment  Ji kicked the ball back to him, and this guy also stood up and expressed his thoughts as part of the "entertainment show".

    "Comrades, as Comrade Trotsky said, the situation is quite serious for us. The loss of one division of Rashevich's 8th Army is not the worst. What is terrible is the east side of our defense line.  It is a completely undefended non-military buffer zone. Now that Kolchak's Cossack cavalry has entered this area, who can guarantee that they will be disarmed by the Volga Federation?

    If the Volga Federation acquiesces to such an action, then the existing defense lines organized by our two southern armies are meaningless. The entire backbone is exposed to the two cavalry divisions of the White Guards. Who can guarantee that Kolchak will not  Send troops from the northern front into the buffer zone again and attack us from east to west in the buffer zone?  "
