Now our troops have moved east along the railway line, preparing to destroy the railway line at the right time, and look for fighter planes to surround and attack reinforcements in the middle of Reskovo and Yadrin. The enemy infantry cannot pose a threat to us. What we need to guard against is the armored trains that are defending. Our anti-aircraft artillery battalion is not enough to threaten the armor of the armored trains of the opponent. For details, please report it.

Volga Front Cavalry Detachment

Captain Xia Jianke, Chief of Staff Bellov

From east of Reskovo

July 27, 1918 18:20

"Kolchak only has one brigade of troops to defend Reskovo? The cavalry detachment can fully utilize the firepower advantages of three heavy machine gun battalions and two anti-aircraft artillery battalions, and strive to take Reskovo down! Why did it withdraw as soon as it hit?" Chernavwen finished his telegram and was the first to shout.

"It's dark. The troops of an opponent's brigade defended Reskovo with the emergency repair fortifications, and there are artillery companies and heavy machine gun battalions. The armored trains and reinforcements from the northwest can be reinforced at any time. I said Vladimir Nikolaevich, your courage is very admirable, but Comrade Yefim Afanasievich is a warrior who broke through the siege and fought in the Battle of Ufa. You don't think he avoids the enemy and fights in a cowardly manner?"

If we say that Xia Jianke, who led the cavalry detachment to attack, was a cavalry general from Charizin and the Southern Front, but Xia Jianke was the political commissar of the Berzin Third Army. What's more, Berzin just saw that Chernaveng, the chief of staff of the Front Army, was disliked. Seeing that he spoke so lightly and seemed to be easy to fight, he couldn't help but retort immediately.

"I'm talking about it, be careful! Karl Ivanvich, you are the commander of the Third Army, and the Chief of Staff of the Front Army is your superior, so be polite!" The political commissar of the Front Army Kamenev couldn't help but come out to clean up the scene, and then turned to the Chief of Staff Chernavon,

"Vladimir Nikolayevich, you are the commander of the front army. You should know that your current identity is different from being a commander of the group army. You must consider all aspects. Unity is important!"

"Okay! Don't say anything more, don't look at when, and just do some trivial matters to waste time. Now the cavalry detachment has found that the enemy has only one brigade left behind in Reskovo. Just now, Berzin said that Korchak's enemy has more than one division. It seems that Kolchak's main force is indeed not on the northern line, at least not on Kstovo!" Voroshilov waved his hand and made his own judgment!

July 27, 1918 at 18:45, Vgorod Soviet Volga Front Command

"Report! Call from the headquarters of the 1st Sarask Army!" Before Voroshilov finished speaking, another confidential staff member sent a telegram.{}{.{}{..}

Front Chief of Staff Chernavin stepped forward to grab the telegram, took a quick look, raised his head and said, "Good news! Tukhachevsky and Xia Boyang, Furmanf had already returned to the 1st Army. There were only dozens of cavalry left by them, walking around the Kazakh prairie in the south, but finally returned to the Volga River!"

The senior Soviet generals in the front military combat room were stunned when they heard this. At this moment, Tukhachevsky actually returned to the army in time. It seemed to be a good omen. Kamenev, the political commissar of the front military, couldn't help but grab the telegram from Chernaveng, and hurriedly looked down. Soon, he raised his head and said,

"Comrade Mikhail Nikolayevich Tukhachevsky has sent a telegram to Moscow to take office and officially take over the command of the 1st Army!"

"What do you say in the telegram? Have you found traces of the main force of the Kolchakbek Guard near Saransk? How is their north?" Voroshilov, deputy commander of the front army and commander-in-chief of the enemy, anxiously grabbed the telegram from Kamenev and read it himself.

"The 1st Army and Budoni's cavalry are rushing to reorganize and reorganize, but Sarask's troops are now missing rifles, machine guns, cannons and ammunition. No trace of the White Guards has been found within a nearby Russian, but the phone could not be reached before the evening of this evening, and Shumerlia, north of Aratri, has lost contact for more than 24 hours! Tukhachevsky judged that the Belarus Guards of Kolchak could be the possibility of moving south from Cheboksare!"

Voroshilov put down the telegram in his hand, feeling quite heavy, raised his head and couldn't speak for a moment. Sergei Sergei Vaticevic Kamenev, commander of the Fifth Army beside him, stood up and said,

"Kriment Yevremovic, comrades, I don't think the situation is good. The 1st Army and the Budonni Cavalry Army have a combined force of less than seven divisions, and they lack weapons and ammunition. Among them, more than half of the commanders and fighters of the 1st Army of Tukhachevsky were just released from the prisoner-of-war camp of the Volga Federation. The morale was low in all aspects and the food should be insufficient! It must be impossible to resist the attack of the main force of Kolchak!"

On this side, Berzin had already walked to the battle map hanging on the wall, gestured carefully, and turned around, "So far, it's true. Kolchak's feint has deceived us. His main force did not come to Vgorod, but quietly left Cheboksare and went south. I guess Kolchak had won at least one or a half days, that is to say, his main force had left Cheboksare at noon yesterday at the latest!"

Beerzin's words made a group of senior Soviet generals in the Front Command shocked. Voroshilov quickly walked to the map and carefully looked at the distance and terrain on the map from Cheboksaré to Salask. Beerzin had already overtaken his role as chief of staff of the Front Army. He picked up a red and blue pencil from Cheboksaré to southwest and drew an arrow, pointing directly to Shumerlia.

Then he gestured with his hands and said to everyone, "From Cheboksare to southwest to Shumerlia, at most one kilometer. If the main force moving south of Kolchak is an infantryman, he can arrive in two days. If he is a cavalry, he will be there even if he is a hurry!"

"I know that a small town in the south of Chuvashi Prefecture is next to the right bank of the lower Sura River. The road from Nikvgorod to Sinbirsk passes through the center of the town, and one kilometer northeast is Cheboksaré.

In my opinion, it is entirely possible for Kolchak's main force, whether it is infantry or cavalry, to travel one day and a half or a night, to travel south and occupy Shumerlia, and the Sula River can also flow downstream, and the troops can even take a boat!" Shaboshnikov, chief of staff of the Fifth Army, stood up and said.
