    But unexpectedly, when the Soviet regime led by Ulyanov and even the Russian nation faced threats, tens of thousands of Mongolians mounted their horses, waved red flags, and shouted "For the motherland! For Joseph"  !" In Wang Geng's previous life, these Mongolian cavalry served as part of the Soviet army and fought all the way to Berlin.

    When the Soviet regime was established in 1917, there were approximately 7,009 million Mongolians in Russia, belonging to Kalmyk, Yakut, Buryat and other tribes.

    When the all-out civil war broke out in Russia in 1918, most of the Cossacks in the Don River Valley joined the White Guards, but the poor Mongolian herdsmen seemed to see hope in escaping from the enslavement of the nobles in the Bolshevik propaganda.  novel chapter

    In particular, the Kalmyk Mongols living in the lower reaches of the Volga River established the Kalmyk Cavalry Regiment under the organization of former Tsarist Russian cavalry lieutenant Oka Alexey Gorodovikov and accepted the Bolshevik Astrakhan Regiment.  The leadership of the regional party committee.

    In the first battle to defend Tsaritsyn, the Kalmyk Cavalry Regiment and the Budyonny Cavalry Regiment led by Gorodovikov also performed outstandingly, but the Budyonny Cavalry Regiment was mainly composed of Red Cossacks, while the Kalmyk Cavalry Regiment  The more than 2,000 members of the Croatian Cavalry Regiment are all Mongolian cavalry.

    Just because of the differences in skin color and blood of his cavalry soldiers, Oka Ivanovich Gorodovikov, who was as brave and capable as Budyonny, this Cossack general who was also red, had to take a back seat to Budyonny.  Under Ni.

    After the first battle to defend Tsaritsyn, under Voroshilov's arrangement, the Budyonny Cavalry Regiment and the Kalmyk Cavalry Regiment merged to form a cavalry brigade. Budyonny got his wish and became the brigade commander.  Zingo took over the position of commander of the Budyonni Cavalry Regiment, while Gorodovikov remained the commander of the Kalmyk Cavalry Regiment.

    In the second battle to defend Tsaritsyn, Gorodovikov led the Kalmyk Cavalry Regiment to create a "cavalry armored train" strategy, which is to mount carriages with cavalry on the armored train. The armored train  Patrolling and defending along the railway lines surrounding the city, and deploying cavalry companies to key areas at any time to intercept the attacks of the White Guard Cossack cavalry, they achieved a good record and made extraordinary contributions to the siege of Tsaritsyn.

    However, it was still because the Mongolian cavalry was subconsciously suppressed and on guard. When the second battle to defend Tsaritsyn was over and the first cavalry division of the Southern Front was established, Timoshenko became the brigade commander, and Goro  Dovikov only became a brigade commander, and the division commander was Comrade Budyonny, the founder of the brave and fearless Red Cossack Cavalry.

    Although Budyonny's Cavalry Division was the only organized unit to break out during the Battle of Ufa, the casualties of the troops were still considerable. After Gorodovikov's 2nd Cavalry Brigade was upgraded and expanded into the 2nd Cavalry Division, now  Only a small half of them were Mongolian cavalry, and the rest were cavalry from various ethnic groups, including Cossacks.

    Budyonny's cavalry army is the same as the earlier cavalry division era. It is still a competition between the direct line Timoshenko and the collateral line Gorodovikov. Of course, the 23-year-old Timoshenko still has the upper hand.  Relying on his status as a direct subordinate of Army Commander Budyonny, this man unexpectedly became the Chief of Staff of the Cavalry Corps and the Commander of the 1st Cavalry Division, while Gorodovikov could only be depressed as the commander of the 2nd Cavalry Division.

    One is the 23-year-old Army Chief of Staff and Commander of the 1st Cavalry Division, and the other is the 39-year-old Commander of the 2nd Cavalry Division. The only ones who can challenge Army Commander Budyonny in terms of qualifications and military exploits, and Army Commander Budyonny is still Ross.  Tov's fellow Cossacks!

    There is a 16-year age difference between Timoshenko and Gorodovikov, and their temperaments are completely different. The young Timoshenko is impulsive and competitive and wants to be the first in everything, while Gorodovikov is hiding something behind his back.  He was never lenient at critical moments. From the perspective of his own army commander, Budyonny saw that Timoshenko was actually more suitable as a forward, while Gorodovikov was good at cleaning up messes and serving as a rear-guard unit.

    If it were not for the fact that the 1st Cavalry Division was his direct descendant, it would have been more appropriate for the Chief of Staff of the Cavalry Corps to be given to Gorodovikov. However, Budyonny also had his own considerations. Since Political Commissar Shatenko had already transferred  After leaving the cavalry army and being transferred to the political commissar of the 3rd Army, if the 39-year-old Gorodovikov is made the chief of staff of the army, if he is unable to deal with the situation and is injured or killed in battle, then Gorodovikov will rely on his qualifications and  With his ability, he will be the perfect candidate to take over the command of the Cavalry Corps.

    This made Budyonny feel a little unable to explain to his direct subordinates of the 1st Cavalry Division that the 1st Cavalry Division would listen to himself and Timoshenko, but he would never listen to Gorodovikov, a Mongolian, easily.  A cavalry commander who was a Cossack.

    Of course, the reason why Timoshenko became the chief of staff of the cavalry army at the age of 23 has something to do with the fact that after the breakthrough in the Battle of Ufa, Gorodovikov's 2nd Brigade only had more than 1,000 people left.

    "You bastards, are you really catching up? Call Timoshenko!" Semyon Mikhailovich Buchon, commander of the cavalry corps, squatting under the shade of a roadside tree with his arms open, drinking water.  Ni stood up calmly, and handed the half-drunk water glass to the messenger of the rear guard regiment who jumped off the horse and was still panting. He turned to give instructions to the orderly Sasha beside him.

    "Drink some water first. Zebrogin, your brigade commander has clearly seen which division the White Guards are assigned to? How could it be the 7th Don Cavalry Division?" Budyonny, the tall army commander, stood in front of a man named Zebrogin.  In front of Brogin's messenger, he was more than half a head taller.

    The rearguard regiment for Budyonny's Cavalry Corps was the 8th Regiment of the 4th Brigade of the 2nd Cavalry Division. At this time, the commander of the 2nd Cavalry Division Oka Ivanovich Gorodovikov, according to Budyonny's arrangement,  Commanding the 3rd Brigade of the 2nd Cavalry Division to circle west, Budyonny personally led Timoshenko's 1st Cavalry Division first to the east and then to the south to replace Pavlov's Kamishin.  The 1st Infantry Division relieved the siege, and the 8th Regiment of the 4th Brigade, 2nd Division became the rearguard regiment.

    After the 2nd Cavalry Brigade of the Budyonny Special Cavalry Division was expanded into the 2nd Cavalry Division, the Kalmyk Regiment of the 2nd Brigade was expanded into the 3rd Cavalry Brigade, brigade commander Dmitry Ivanovich Ri  Yabyshev was born in Rostov Oblast in 1894. He was also a Don Cossack. Unfortunately, he did not have the opportunity to participate in the two Rostov battles in the early days of the European War. He started his military career as a private.
