"In the future, we will use machinery to replace animal power, and the role of horses will drop significantly. Maybe many people are difficult to accept now. Maybe the cost of machinery may be higher than that of horses, but this is a must-have. The country has taken risks for us, and we can naturally convert these horses into real money and silver. The crown prince's determination to promote industrialization and mechanization is very firm. The first step is for us to get out, and then the Austro-Hungarian Empire." Kariput said.

"From a military perspective, if you want to continue fighting, who is already very weak, now you have no future with machine guns and light cannons with limited funds. There is no essential difference in military equipment between the two sides, and the opponent has a huge advantage in military strength. Denikin's idea is very correct. We cannot give them a large number of tanks and armored vehicles through the mobility of the troops. They also have enough technicians to control these weapons, so we can only give them horses, which also confirms Denikin's ability from another aspect. He has a relatively clear understanding of himself and the situation of the battle." Caripot said.

"However, this high-level soldier who is considered to be of high-level ability is still almost killed by their enemies. I always feel that in the next war, on the tactical level, the opponents we meet may be more difficult than this time," said Feng Seckert.

As a soldier, Feng Secker naturally paid great attention to the Russian civil war. After studying many battles, Feng Secker discovered that although the equipment level between the two sides in the current Soviet-Russian civil war was very different from that of the Russian army in the first battle, their tactics were more flexible and changeable, and they were no longer the rigid tactics of the old Russian army. From the perspective of the leader, the generals of both sides were upgraded to a higher level. Moreover, the fighting will of the troops was stronger than that in the first battle. Therefore, Feng Secker came to a conclusion that even if Russia had suffered heavy losses in hardware, if a more efficient government was allowed to master the country, Russia might cause greater trouble to Germany in the future.

"Yes, the Russians learned very quickly. If the Russian army had only learned some superficial knowledge, then the Russian army is trying to systematically organize the previous experience and the enemy is growing, so we must keep improving." Kariput said.

"Are you serious about Denikin's words in the end? Does His Royal Highness really want to create a second vassal on the Eastern Front?" asked Von Seckert.

"If possible, it is naturally the case, but unfortunately, I am not optimistic about Denikin's army. They lack a mass base, which fundamentally limits their combat effectiveness. After they consume their gold and wealth, the only thing waiting for them is failure. I do not deny that some of the Soviet Union's practices did cause some hostiles, but most of the Russians supported them. When the empire was unwilling to be involved in the Russian civil war, our help could only be to delay the pace of Russian unification." Kariput said. "If a second vassal state cannot appear, then we at least hope that Ukraine's territory will be larger."

"You mean that when necessary, Ukraine will also be involved in this war, and the Empire will, as the backing of Ukraine, tear off another piece of the territory of the current Russians?" said Von Seckert.

"That's right, at least it's the plan now. We have to cultivate our vassal state and give him some ability. What we need is a strong ally, not a baby who only knows how to protect the German Empire. So some things must be experienced by them." Kariput said.

"Your Highness, this is the result of the negotiations between General Kariput and the Russians. Please take a look." Earl Schelling sent a report to the crown prince.

"Okay, let's put it aside." The crown prince nodded and said.

"Your Highness, there is an opinion in the army that since we are so afraid of the new country that is about to rise, why don't we launch another preventive war next year or the year after? After all, our environment is different from before. No one on the European continent can stop the empire's military front." Earl Schelling said.

"Do you know what the terror of this regime is?" Ruprecht said. "The terror of it is that it is difficult for him to surrender simply by forceful oppression! War is cost-effective, and we cannot fight a war that can lose money or even kill one thousand enemies and lose eight hundred by themselves! If everyone develops peacefully and can widen the gap between us and the enemy, then we naturally have to choose development rather than war. Before the outbreak of the war, the fundamental reason why we thought that the war must be launched was that we were ready, and the Allies, especially the Russians, were not ready, so we must start the war when the strength comparison between the two sides is most beneficial to us!"

"It is understandable that soldiers want to gain promotion and benefits through a war, but as governments we cannot be influenced. At this point, Kariput sees it very clearly that he is good at fighting but not warlike, so he can be the chief of staff of the Bavarian Legion in the future." The crown prince said.

To be honest, the Soviet Union developed rapidly in history, and the Soviet Union's ruling efficiency was indeed far higher than that of Tsarist Russia. But this is not the reason why the crown prince had to restrict it and fight with the Soviet Union! The reason is very simple. No matter how fast the Soviet Union developed in this plane, it would not be faster than integrating the entire Western Europe and most of the Eastern Europe Germany and Austria! The Soviets lost too much industry, minerals, manpower and technical resources. So they were not anxious about the crown prince! Take your time!

Therefore, under the control of the Germans, the war that was about to be extinguished on the Eastern Front once again had the opportunity to rekindle. After obtaining a large amount of German arms and materials support, Denikin's White Army once again regained its momentum and blocked Budonni's three large-scale attacks. At the same time, under the leadership of Korninov, a large number of Cossack cavalry tore open the opponent's defense line and rushed into depth, which directly led to Budonni having to give up the front line in front and start a large-scale retreat. This relatively hasty retreat will naturally leave a large number of personnel and supplies for Denikin, so the White Army, who was about to be hung, jumped up again!

Because of the problems on the Western Front, the Soviet Union had to mobilize the troops originally used to encircle Kolchak from Central Asia and Asia to the Western Front to increase the siege of Denikin. However, this gave the Kolchak troops, which had been in a state of running, a chance to breathe.
