July 14, 1918 near the Ural Mountains 20 kilometers east of Sarawat

"Comrade Commander, the army is ready to go, please give me instructions!" Standing at the door of the tent was Chabayev, the battalion commander of the group military guard battalion. His military appearance was meticulous, his chest was twice as tall as his chest, and his hands were holding the hilt of the saber and his boots were polished shiny.

"How do you feel when Vasily Ivanovic has been a battalion commander for a day? Have you realized your mistake?" Tukhachevsky opened his hands and asked the orderly soldiers to tie a belt and armed belt for himself while wearing a military uniform.

"Mikhail Nikolayevich, if you want to make mistakes, everyone will make mistakes, but I have to take the lives of the warriors seriously. Those so-called commanders who have been talking sarcastic all day long. I dare say that as long as the coalition forces are at the city, these guys will surrender whenever they are at the first place, they will surrender their guns whenever they are weak!" Chabayev replied with a serious face.

"As you say that, the only cavalry division in the First Army is a hero, and the comrades in the infantry division are all cowards?" Tukhachevsky glanced at his favorite general in dissatisfaction, and quickly put on neat clothes under the service of the orderly soldiers.

"That's not sure, but look at it. On the battlefield of Ufa, our cavalry must be the ones who fight for the last breath. Although my division is only one regiment left, I will still protect the army headquarters to break through the encirclement. However, Comrade Commander, we must leave as early as possible. Comrade Furmanov has been heading south with the vanguard battalion for half an hour. The brigade here is ready to go and wait for the comrades in the headquarters!"

Chabayev obviously did not regard himself as a battalion commander at all. In his mind, Xia Boyang's division was to fight the remaining platoon, or Xia Boyang's division. No matter who would be the commander, the three words Xia Boyang were always the spiritual pillar and courage of the cavalry division.

"Okay, let's go now and ask the troops to pay attention to concealment. The cavalry brigade walks close to the foot of the Ural Mountains, and the farther away from the Belaya River, the better. Taking advantage of the weather not clearing up, God is still standing on our side. We rushed to the southern foot of the Ural Mountains in one breath!"

Tukhachevsky took the reins from the orderly soldiers, pulled the saddle and got on the horse, and then took a piece of black bread and water bag from the plates in the orderly soldiers. The cavalrymen of the guard battalion behind him had already packed up the last command tent.

In order to allow the commander of the army who had not had a good sleep for several days and nights to rest for a while, after camping in the middle of the night last night, the cavalrymen who jumped out of the enemy's encirclement had a good sleep for the first time. Furmanov got up at 6 o'clock in the morning and set off south at 6 o'clock. Chabayev was not until the soldiers had breakfast and cleaned up, and the last one woke up Tukhachevsky, who was sleeping heavily.

Tukhachevsky's army command was left with 200 guard battalions and a cavalry of Furmanov. Furmanov, acting commander and political commissar of the cavalry division, led a battalion to more than 500 people to fight the front station this time. The two battalions commanded by Tukhachevsky himself were about 800 cavalry and the guard battalion of Chabayev, totaling about 1,000 cavalry, and the guard battalion was with the baggage team, with about 700 people.

Tukhachevsky personally broke through the 2,200 people in the entire army were all cavalry, because the first regiment of the 1st regiment in Sterlitamak town was frustrated, so many cavalrymen in the Second regiment were still one by one and two riders, and the war horses were much richer.

The youngest commander of the Eastern Front of the Soviet Red Army, the Bolshevik general, Tukhachevsky, was also an indomitable guy who would never give up until the last moment.

Mikhail Nikolaevich Tukhachevsky was born on February 16, 1893 in a noble family in Dorogoburi County, Smolensk Province.

Because this guy's family was in a dilemma, his father moved his family to Ulari Village, Penza Province in 1904, and then moved to Moscow in 1909. At the age of 18, Tukhachevsky left the middle school and entered the First Martial Arts School of Ekaterina in Moscow, and later transferred to the Alexander Military Academy to study. He graduated in July 1914 and was awarded the title of second lieutenant and served in the Semenov Guard Regiment.

After the outbreak of the European war, Tukhachevsky went to the front line with his troops and was awarded six times for his bravery in combat. On February 19, 1915, Xiaotu was captured by the German army on the battlefield and sent to the German officer prisoner war camp to imprisonment. The following year, he tried to escape many times, but failed. Instead, he was transferred to the 9th Fortress of Ingolstadt, which was specifically detained as a "fugitive".

Later, when he was caught again, he cleverly scrambled into the soldiers' prisoners of war concentration camp. In the autumn of 1917, with the help of the captured soldiers of the battalion, he fled back to Russia and served as company commander of his original troops. Therefore, the European War lasted for four years, and Tukhachevsky, the man squatted for two and a half years of German prisoners of war camp.

After the victory of the October Revolution in Soviet Russia in 1917, Tukhachevsky met his old classmate, Bolshevik Nikolaevich, in Moscow. Under his influence, Tukhachevsky chose a new path of life.

In the spring of 1918, the Soviet government moved from Petrograd to Moscow. Tukhachevsky began to work in the Military Department of the Central Executive Committee of the All-Russian Soviet Union, and joined the Bolshevik Party in March of the same year. In April, he was ordered to go to the Eastern Front to be responsible for rectifying the scattered troops and preparing to build the First Red Army. He completed the mission outstandingly in a short time and personally led his troops to defeat the White Guards many times.

Of course, what made Xiaotu famous was the rebellion initiated by Muravyov, the commander of the Eastern Front of the Soviet Red Army and the left-wing Social Revolutionary. Muravyov led a 2,000 guard to Sinbiersk, stationed in the Tukhachevsky First Army, and was preparing to win over and incite the First Army to rebel with this guy.

Of course, Tukhachevsky refused to agree. He was not in the plan of Xiaotu, who had just obtained the number of the First Army, who had reused the number of the First Army. Besides, Tukhachevsky had joined the Bolsheviks, so how could he easily follow Muravyov, the left-wing Social Revolutionary?

It was precisely because of Tukhachevsky's firm resistance that the commander of the Eastern Front, Muravyov, who was arrogant, failed to truly control the main force of the First Army, and the Simbirsk Soviets, with the support of Tukhachevsky's First Army, used the Hongmen Banquet to coax Muravyov and his gang members into the conference room and shot him to death, which killed the possibility of the commander of the Eastern Front bringing further harm to the Moscow and the Soviet regime.

It was precisely because Tukhachevsky and his First Army played a decisive role in quelling the Muravyov rebellion that this guy then rose to the top and the First Army also expanded from a small army of tens of millions to a scale of 80,000 in seven divisions. Tukhachevsky became the representative of the young Bolshevik generals in the Eastern Front.

Although Vates came from Moscow to steal his chance to be the commander of the Eastern Front, the middle position of the commander of the Southern Cluster of the Eastern Front's Ufa Battle, echoed the IQ of all the commanders of the Eastern Front's army, demonstrating this extraordinary position in the minds of the Moscow bosses.

Tukhachevsky was naturally a proud guy. In Wang Geng's previous life, this guy's later tragedy was buried in the Soviet-Polish war in 1920. Of course, it was obvious that Tukhachevsky and Budonnie were just right now, and they were all struggling to break through the siege and blockade of the coalition forces.

It is undeniable that the two and a half years of life in the German prisoner-of-war camp has created Tukhachevsky's tenacious character. This guy will never easily sell his motherland to betray Russia. The premise is that there must be a regime worthy of his loyalty. In the Battle of Ufa, the army was completely defeated and the army was completely wiped out.

Tukhachevsky had only one idea and wanted to find a way to run back. He would never go to the west now. The areas where the coalition forces focused on attacking and interception must be the areas on the right bank of the Volga River. Therefore, Tukhachevsky decided to go south, along the Ural Mountains, and on the east bank of the Belaya River.

Judging from the previous roundabout movements of the coalition forces, coalition ground troops appeared on the Kumertao and Orenburg. If it weren't for the fact that Sterlitamak town had strangled the only pass that crossed the Ural Mountains east, Tukhachevsky even thought of taking his troops to the east of the Ural Mountains.

The Ufa Plain is now a private place for the coalition forces. It is dangerous to stay for one minute. Where is the safest place?

Break out of the inertial thinking of the coalition generals and walk away from the blind corners they could not imagine. The coalition's aviation team is very terrible, but the plane cannot come down to catch prisoners, and they are mostly cavalry units with one man and two cavalry. As long as they do not encounter the coalition ground forces, with the brave generals of the golden cavalry partner Chabayev and Furmanov, they will definitely be able to break through the enemy's blockade and protrude!

The weather will not always be so friendly to the Soviet Red Army. Sooner and later, the clouds will clear away. However, as long as you can take advantage of the darkness and when the opponent's air reconnaissance planes cannot be dispatched, try to distance yourself from the coalition ground forces. When you arrive on the Kazakh prairie, Tukhachevsky felt that his cavalry could be dispersed into countless small groups and penetrated from all directions.

If you get angry, you can pretend to be a bandit and take down the capital of the Kazakh Arash Autonomous Republic in one fell swoop!

Tukhachevsky led more than 2,200 cavalry to catch the road all morning. Due to the heavy rains for several consecutive days, the river was flooded and the road was also muddy. Going south along the foot of the Ural Mountains, this guy only drove 60 kilometers in one morning.

When Colonel Hata Shunrok, director of the Operations Office of the Alliance Command, led two cavalry gangs of the Fourth Cavalry Regiment to cross the flooded Belaya River from the Saravat Ferry, Tukhachevsky and his cavalry appeared in Yumagujino town about 40 kilometers northeast of Kumertao.

The Belaya River, which had been traveling north and south before, transformed here into east and west, blocking the way of the Tukhachevsky cavalry.
