Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty Surrounded?
July 15, 1918 21:25 Bandits near Moscow University
Joseph Visarionovic Jugashvili, former chairman of the Military Commission of the North Caucasus Military Region, military member of the Revolutionary Military Commission of the Southern Front, member of the Central Soviet Union, and member of the National People's Committee of the Soviet People's Committee, was solved to the end, which was the largest earthquake within the Bolshevik Party.
Joseph worked in the North Caucasus for a long time and established outstanding merits for the Soviets on the southern battlefield. He won three consecutive victories in the Battle of Charizin. With the help of Voroshilov and Yegorov, he retreated to the former Ukrainian troops near Charizin, the workers' pickets in Charizin and the workers' detachment south of Saratov.
Through the three battles to defend Chalijin, they were integrated and organized together, and the Southern Front Army, which had the eighth, ninth and tenth main armies, became half of the troops in the Eastern Front of the Soviet Government.
If Vates, the commander of the Eastern Front, had to bear the leadership responsibility for the destruction of the Southern Cluster in the Ufa Battle, then the Southern Front, which had suffered a lot of losses, shouldn't be so heavy. Of course, Comrade Joseph was a little arrogant and domineering, but for a Bolshevik leader who was in charge of the party, government and military power and was an old qualification?
The one who led an infantry division with a total of about 10,000 people to escort the Central Committee Member Joseph and Bubnov back to Moscow was Voroshilov's favorite general, the main division of the 1st Steel Infantry Division, Pavlov.
Dmitry Grigolievich Pavlov was born in November 1897 in a peasant family in Kostroma Province. In 1914, he joined the Tsarist Russian army at the age of 17 and fought in the Southwest Front Army. Unfortunately, he was captured and was locked in the same concentration camp as Tukhachevsky, the East Front Army.
Before the February Revolution in 1917, Pavlov escaped from the prisoner-of-war camp and joined the Bolsheviks. After that, he was sent to work at the Izmerov Imperial Guards by the Bolshevik Party in Petrograd. Voroshilov's military career, or revolutionary career, began with the successful rebellion of the Izmerov Imperial Guards during the February Revolution in 1917.
In the process of instigating the Izmerov Imperial Guards, the young Bolshevik Dmitry Grigolievich Pavlov left a profound influence on him and left a deep impression on him.
Due to the preparation of Pavlov's early work, many Bolshevik soldiers had been developed in the middle and lower levels of the guard regiment, so the uprising went very smoothly. Finally, the soldiers elected Voroshilov as the representative of Petersburg workers and a member of the Bolshevik Party Youth League Committee.
The 20-year-old Dmitry Grigolievich Pavlov also became the assistant that Voroshilov loved and admired. Since then, he has followed Voroshilov to fight all over Russia, worked as a guerrilla, and developed miner riots. Later, he followed Voroshilov back to Ukraine to form the Ukrainian Fifth Army.
During the civil war, Pavlov served as platoon commander, company commander, regiment commander, and regiment commander, and was promoted to brigade commander and division commander under Voroshilov during the three battles to defend Chalizin. The 1st Iron Infantry Division, the main division of the 10th Army of the Southern Front, was also handed over to Pavlov.
The 1st Iron Infantry Division was a unit named by Joseph, former chairman of the Military Committee of the North Caucasus Military Region. It originated from Comrade Joseph's article "The Issues of Buddhism and the Nationality" in March 1913, and used the pen name "Shi Daling" (meaning "The Man of Steel") for the first time. The 1st Iron Infantry Division drew working-class Bolsheviks from the troops of Comrade Joseph's most trusted Voroshilov.
Voroshilov handed over this division to his most trusted subordinate and follower Dmitry Grigolievich Pavlov. This division was exactly the direct unit of Voroshilov and also the guard division of Comrade Joseph.
The 1st Iron and Steel Division had a full capacity of nearly 10,000 people, almost 100% of whom were from the working class or had worked as a worker. It was one of the most powerful infantry divisions of the Southern Front. When escorted Joseph and Bubnov all the way to Moscow from Taritzin, the 10,000-man team was filled with five trains. The First Brigade opened the way on the two trains in the front, and the Second Brigade became a defender on the two trains in the back.
The special trains of Joseph and Bubnov are iron-clad trains equipped with machine guns and cannons. The iron-clad trains are magical weapons in the Battle of Chalizin and are also weapons often equipped by the main forces of the Southern Front. Of course, the 21-year-old division commander Pavlov was a strong Bolshevik, so this guy did not think about whether his troops would open fire on Moscow one day.
The officers and soldiers of the First Steel Division had never thought so. Like their young division commanders, in the eyes of the young men, Joseph was the representative of the Soviet Central Committee and Moscow sent to Charizin and the Southern Front, and represented the Soviet Central Committee to lead the work of Charizin and the Southern Front. Joseph was the Moscow Central Committee, the Bolshevik Party, and his own leader!
"Report to the division commander, there are many soldiers on several streets in our camp, which seem to be under martial law and mobilization! Should we call our troops on guard?" The commander of the division commander Gorbermann was reported to the First Brigade, and two sentries on duty were followed behind him.
"What's going on? Calm down, this is Moscow, the heart of the motherland, where does the enemy come from? Is there a force that wants to rebel and riot?" The division commander Pavlov jumped up after hearing this.
This guy was discussing quietly with his political commissar Jugashvili at the headquarters about the troops entering Moscow, but how to get the troops disciplined. This is the capital. The people of Moscow are not the country bumpkins in the villages and towns in the south. As southern troops enter the capital, don’t disturb the people and cause trouble. Comrade Voroshilov and Comrade Joseph are not good-looking!
"Slowly speaking, Comrade Gorebmann, did you release us from warning? Find out which part of the troops it is?" said Jugashvilli, a political commissar on the division.
"Report to the division commander and political commissar. The other party looks like a Moscow garrison. The rifles in their hands are long spears. The other party does not seem to be rioting or rebelling, but it seems to be coming to us. The intersections near Moscow University are now blocked, and no passes are allowed without a pass!"
Goerbmann replied in a stuttering manner that if his troops stayed in the camp honestly, the Chalijinlai Iron Division, which was not martial law in Moscow, might not know about the 1st Steel Division, but there were all kinds of birds in the forest. Moscow supplies were tight, especially food was tight, but there were vodka.
Gorbmann's adjutant brought two orderly soldiers to get some food and wanted to go to the nearby Moscow home to exchange some good wine, but then he ran into martial law. If he hadn't been nimble and had his legs and feet running fast, he might have stopped him and could not come back. It was so dark that the people from the 1st Steel Infantry Division of Huchalijin had any Moscow pass?
Of course, Gorberman's adjutant and orderly officer hugged several bottles of good wine, at least they slipped back to the camp, so they did not intend to report to the division commander and political commissar for wine with the Moscow people, but his camp was suddenly surrounded by martial law and surrounded by others, which was of great importance. Gorberman rushed to the division headquarters to report immediately, and behind him pretended to bring two sentries on duty.
Just as I was able to do it, the phone rang in the division headquarters. The political commissar of the division, Jugashvili, walked over and answered the phone. It was from the Second Brigade. The Moscow garrison troops appeared half a street from the east and north of the camp. There were still a large number of people, but the streets had been blocked. Then the two regiments of the First Brigade reported that the Moscow garrison troops appeared in the west and south of the First Division, which was carrying out martial law.
"Operator, this is the First Iron and Steel Division of the Chalijin University of Moscow. Please pick me up the Moscow Garrison Command. No, please pick up the Central Committee of the Klim Palace or the Supreme Military Commission on duty room!" The division commander Pavlov looked cold, and while instructing the political commissar to inform all the commanders and soldiers of the division to get up and enter a state of alert, but there was no order from the division headquarters that he was not allowed to leave the camp or shoot without authorization.
The guy picked up the only external phone number of the division headquarters to answer the Kremlin! The entire camp suddenly heard waves of whistles and busy footsteps, but the voices were not overwhelming. Although the soldiers of the First Iron Division were nervous and didn't know what big things happened, they were obviously well-trained and were not the ones who shouted randomly when they heard the whistle of the emergency gathering in the middle of the night.
Fortunately, the external phone was not cut off, which means that his first Iron Infantry Division was not a turtle in the jar and was slaughtered. Although Pavlov was young, he was experienced and knew that if the troops surrounding him really wanted to invade or destroy him, he would never let the phone go without cutting off and let him bring out the rescue.
While waiting for the operator's nice female voice in the receiver to answer the phone, the guy covered his microphone and turned to stare at the commander of the First Brigade and said, "It's only been a few hours, Gorebman, your people haven't gone out to cause trouble, right?"
Gorbman was sweating all over his head, stomping his feet and swearing, "Teacher Commander, don't talk about you before coming, even Comrade Voroshilov has taken care of him repeatedly. Our 1st Iron Infantry Division represents the image of the working class of Chalizin and the Southern Front. Moscow is the heart of the motherland. How dare we do anything randomly? It's just the fellow villagers who are carrying along the way along the way. We asked them to get off the train before the train entered Moscow!"
"Take me with fellow villagers? Humph, don't forget that you are the glorious First Iron Division, not the Cossacks of the White Guards, you are the glorious Soviet Red Army soldiers, not bandits! If a fellow villagers come to complain, I will see if you, the brigade commander, or not, you still want to do it!" Pavlov said angrily when he heard this.
"Don't worry, the teacher, it's not easy for fellow villagers. Nowadays, train tickets are not available at all. There are not many fellow villagers in our carriage. You can't worry about the discipline of the team. Iron and Steel discipline, but if the fellow villagers and soldiers have a private friendship, we can't take too much care, right? After all, we are back to Moscow and not going to the frontline to fight."
Gorbmann and Pavlov were obviously two types of Soviet Red Army generals, or Pavlov was a very ambitious young division commander, while Gorbmann, the brigade commander of his main brigade, was a carefree master who passed today and did not think about tomorrow. He fought bravely and had a way of defending the subordinates, and was deeply loved by the soldiers of the First Brigade.
