Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The 6th Cavalry Division, led by the division commander Bageev, has reached 5 kilometers northeast of the town of Bazar Senezgan, while the 5th Cavalry Division of Bazarev occupied the former headquarters of the Soviet 10th Army.  Stationed in the town of Weishkema.

    Pyatov's 4th Don Cavalry Division, Vitaly Vitamovich Volkov's Kazan Infantry Division 8, and Viktor Viktorovich Paunovich  The 9th Kazan Infantry Division surrounded the 1st Kameshin Infantry Division, the 7th Budyonny Cavalry Regiment and 8 artillery companies led by Chief of Staff of the Soviet 10th Army Pavlov.

    After occupying the 5-kilometer position in the westernmost section of the northern line, the 7th Kazan Infantry Division has advanced to the south of the position and is searching for progress, but has found nothing!

    July 31, 1918 7:30 Former enemy headquarters in Kolchak, 65 kilometers west of Simbirsk

    "The situation on the battlefield is like this. In total, we have only captured the strength of the two Gidis divisions, and before they are defeated, the main forces of the Soviet Red Army have all withdrawn southward" Kolchak's deputy and chief of staff of the White Guard Army  , Commander of the 2nd Kazan Army, Ji Yaomu Nikolayevich Hastings's tone was a bit bitter, but his face was slightly red.

    July 31, 1918 7:30 Former enemy headquarters in Kolchak, 65 kilometers west of Simbirsk

    "Your Majesty the Supreme Consul, we should order all the Don cavalry divisions to pursue the south at full speed! We must not let the two armies of Gidis and Lashevich escape! This is simply unreasonable. How can we let them run away?!" Cossacks  The big leader, the chief of staff of the 1st Army of the Kazan White Guards, Roman Mikhailovich Krashilnikov, the cavalry general, jumped up and shouted, his mighty beard curling up and down, and he was a little angry.

    Alexander Vasilyevich Kolchak, the highest consul in Russia and commander of the 1st Army Group of the White Guards in Kazan, frowned and stared at the latest situation of the battlefield just marked on the map without saying a word. Obviously, what was happening in front of him was  The situation was unexpected and a bit uncertain.

    "Your Excellency, Commander, there is nothing to hesitate. Andrei's 1st Don Cavalry Division has already pursued it. In my opinion, let Joel Kashev's 2nd Cavalry Division also bypass the Bazar Nesez  Gan Town continues to pursue south. The Soviet infantry division guarding Nesezgan Town in Bazar can be handed over to the 6th Bagyev Don River Cavalry Division 5 kilometers northeast. In addition, Baila  Mov's 5th Cavalry Division should also quickly move south from the town of Weishkema, so that we can concentrate at least 4 cavalry divisions to pursue"

    The speaker was Lieutenant General Sergei Nikolayevich Dimilev, Chief of Staff of the 2nd Army of the White Guards in Kazan. Although this man and his wife Anna divorced due to the intervention of Kolchak, a powerful lover,  Kolchak was still the leader he chose to follow, and the friendship the two formed during their time in the navy was not greatly affected.

    "Pyatov's 4th Cavalry Division stayed on the northern front to participate in the siege of the Soviet-Russian infantry division? Why didn't they continue to pursue it south? In addition, have you found out the number of the enemy's rearguard unit? Why is its combat effectiveness so strong?  How much force did the 9th and 8th Kazan Infantry Division put into the attack? Two main infantry divisions and one main cavalry division couldn't take down the position defended by one of the opponent's infantry divisions!"

    Kolchak stared closely at his deputy, Chief of General Staff of the White Guards and Commander of the 2nd Kazan Army Jiyao "Beiyang 1917 Chapter 752 (2) Nothing is Found" M. Nikolayevich Hess  Tings questioned.

    "Alexander Vasilyevich, Pyatov's 4th Cavalry Division and Bayramov's 5th Cavalry Division experienced last night's night attack and this morning's northwest assault. The troops were exhausted. Bayramov's 4th Cavalry Division was exhausted.  Mov's 5th Cavalry Division had to stop and recuperate after capturing Weskema.

    As for Pyatov's 4th Cavalry Division, in order to assist the Kazan 8th and 9th Divisions in dealing with the opponent's broken troops, they had no choice but to stay and fight The opponent's combat effectiveness was very strong, with at least 50 guns.  The artillery and the Maxim machine guns of three heavy machine gun battalions have been identified as the 1st Kameshin Infantry Division. This was the same unit that broke off the rear in Buyinsk!  "

    Hastings explained patiently, but his old face turned red. After all, the 2nd Kazan Army, which was mainly composed of infantry divisions and commanded by this guy, had bitten a hard nut. Not only the 9th Kazan Infantry Division was under enemy fire.  The casualties were heavy. Even the 8th Kazan Infantry Division, which had outflanked the center, was suppressed by the opponent's intensive artillery fire and was unable to launch an offensive further. If Pyatov's 4th Don Cavalry Division had not blocked the southern line, the enemy might have lost the Kamei.  Did the 1st Shen Infantry Division break through the "Beiyang 1917" and run south?

    "Commander-in-Chief, Your Excellency Chief of Staff, I think we must concentrate our artillery fire and knock out the opponent's artillery positions first before we can continue to launch the attack on this infantry division. But now the soldiers are very fast, and the Soviet Red Army's broken unit has been destroyed.  We block and encircle the northern front. We might as well encircle him first, and then we can slowly think of ways to deal with him later. The top priority is Pi.Yatov's 4th Cavalry Division should be mobilized to continue pursuing southward!  "The words of Krashilnikov, chief of staff of the 1st Kazan Army, are clearly in line with the art of war.

    "The 4th Cavalry Division and the 5th Cavalry Division are both exhausted. This is understandable. I think it is better to let the 7th Cavalry Division join the pursuit south. The 4th Division will stay on the northern line to monitor the enemy's 1st Kameshin Infantry Division.  Division, let the 7th Kazan Infantry Division move eastward and prepare to join the ranks of encircling and annihilating the opponent's rearguard division. Guillaume Nikolayevich must concentrate firepower and transfer all fifteen artillery batteries to the east. First,  I reduced the opponent's artillery positions to rubble before launching the attack!"

    Kolchak looked at the map carefully and finally made a quick decision. The main forces of the 10th and 8th Group Armies of the Soviet Red Army must have quietly started to retreat southward in the middle of the night.  After 4 to 5 hours of departure, the closest distance between the two sides was more than 30 kilometers. At this time, it was too late to send the infantry of the 2nd Kazan Army to pursue the day lily.

    They could only use the cavalry of the 1st Kazan Army to pursue them. The White Guards were exhausted, and so was the Soviet Red Army. At least the main force of the White Guards had a sound sleep last night. Since the Soviet Red Army retreated overnight, it was almost  The Lord who hasn't slept all night long will surely catch up if he chases after him!

    "Report to the Commander-in-Chief! The 4th and 5th Kazan Infantry Divisions on the northern front were attacked by the Budyonny Cavalry Corps. The attack was very fierce. The 11th Brigade of the 4th Division lost a rear guard regiment, and the 15th Brigade of the 5th Division lost a guard regiment.  The 29th Infantry Regiment is surrounded by the enemy. The opponent is at least 2 divisions of Soviet Red Army cavalry! The 4th and 5th Divisions are organizing a defense line and requesting support from the headquarters! ".
