Among the generals, everyone knew that Rokossovsky was born as a general, and he was not bad at the Soviet Russian officers who surrendered later, and he also took care of them in life, and these people were close to Rokossovsky in the past. Therefore, everyone thought that after the admonition of an officer from the Soviet Russian army, Rokossovsky would reconsider.

"No more talking!"

Unexpectedly, Rokossovsky did not listen to the advice at this time, but was determined to press the whole army, looked around at the generals, and said categorically: "You don't need to persuade again, the general has made up his mind, this battle is to press all up, not a single soldier is left, after the artillery has fired all the shells, but also pick up weapons to keep up with the large army, and pounce on the enemy together." This officer wants to break through his Soviet positions in one go! ”

Seeing that Rokossovsky's attitude was so resolute, accumulating the results of several previous battles, a group of Soviet Russian generals did not dare to persuade again, after all, the commander of the army was he Rokossovsky, not them, although the previous siege had the effect of the camp army commanded by Zhao Yun pressing the formation behind, but Rokossovsky's successive achievements, they couldn't help but start to think about whether this "wrong" decision should be implemented.

Seeing that none of the generals moved, Rokossovsky knew that this was still the problem that Zhao Yun was worried about, and his "authority" had not yet been established, so he couldn't help but sigh, his face sank, "Are you worried that if this attack is careless, there will be no room for a turnaround." ”

"Yes, General, it's too risky for the whole army to press together! It's better to divide the main attack, the auxiliary attack, or the batch! ”

Seeing that Rokossovsky himself expressed his worries, everyone also responded one after another, some of them were used to fighting guerrilla warfare, and some were worried that the casualties of their men would be too large, and they did not want to press the whole army in this engagement, because it was too risky.

Seeing that all the generals did not agree to the whole army pressing, Rokossovsky's face collapsed and he sighed, but unexpectedly did not blame them, but opened his mouth and asked: "Ben General knows what you are worried about, but Ben will ask you, compared with the Soviet army, who has the advantage in this force?" ”

It was the old officer who stood up and replied: "Our army is 40,000, and the Soviet Russia only has more than 20,000, I am afraid that they have already mobilized all the troops except for the fierce battle with our army in the city of Ishim, and this force is naturally our army has the upper hand." ”

Rokossovsky nodded, pointed to an officer from the White Russian Baron's Army, and continued to ask: "Then the general will ask you, who is stronger and who is weaker than our army and the Soviet soldiers?" ”

The Russian officer who was pointed out looked at his colleagues around him, and said stubbornly, "Although our army has routed and captured many Soviet troops along the way, only my subordinates know that most of these are teams that the Soviet army has just temporarily formed, and we have completely annihilated one or two regiments of the original team, and the rest are said to have been defeated, or it can be said that they broke through." Therefore, the elite soldiers and horses of the Soviet army that we really annihilated this time should only be in the thousands, and the rest were either driven into the city of Omsk, or retreated to the city of Ishim in a scattered manner, which is why we have attacked Ishim as early as two days ago, but the sporadic resistance in the city has been continuous. In terms of the will of the Soviets to fight, our two armies were equal, but in terms of the continuous exchange of fire in the city of Ishim, our soldiers were indeed inferior to them......." In the end, the Russian officer of the White Army could no longer speak.

Hearing this more honest answer, Rokossovsky's face softened slightly, at least his subordinates had not been arrogant and blindly publicized the "great achievements" of their own army, so they happily said: "Very good, and we know how many pounds and weights we have." Since the combat effectiveness of our army is not as good as that of the Soviet army, but it is nearly twice as numerous as the Soviet army, and it is impossible for the Soviet army to transfer all its forces to resist our army, they must always allocate forces to guard the grain and grass and guard against artillery positions. Therefore, Ben will conclude that the number of troops that the Soviets can use to resist our army will not exceed 20,000, and this number will not be able to be reached at the beginning, and this figure can only be reached after the battle has begun, when they draw forces from the defensive lines in all directions. In this way, that is, two of us or even three of us fight one of them, and when the weapons and equipment are not weaker than theirs, you say, how much pressure will the pressure of my whole army be on the Soviet army in front of you? ”

After speaking, he raised his hand and pointed to the Soviet position in front, and said confidently: "You see, the Soviet army came from afar, and there were many horses, camels, etc., so in order to accommodate these accumulations, they divided several lines of defense and did not concentrate like our army. ”

After hearing this, the generals all felt that Rokossovsky's plan was quite reasonable, and they all agreed with Rokossovsky's strategy of pressing the whole army. After discussing some precautions, the generals returned to the various departments one after another to prepare for the deployment of the whole army to charge into battle.

Seeing that the generals had already acted according to the order, Rokossovsky ordered the signal corps to order the cavalry to assemble, and if necessary, the cavalry should cooperate with the army to charge into battle.

Seeing that his subordinates had already acted in an orderly manner, Rokossovsky continued to pick up the clairing mirror to observe the movements of the Soviet army on the opposite side, to see if there were other Soviet soldiers and horses to join, and after watching for a while, he found that there was no Soviet army to continue to come to reinforce, only the Soviet army in front of him was waiting for him, Rokossovsky was more confident, and he wanted to send an order to prepare for the attack.

The White Russian army learned that the Soviet Russian army was not far from the goal, and similarly, the Soviet Russian scouts, who were only five miles away, also learned the news that the opponent was starting to get busy.

After reporting that there was an "abnormal" situation on the main position of the White Russian army, Yegorov immediately led a group of Soviet generals and colonels to the first trench on the front line to prepare for the battle.

From a distance, I saw that the White Russian army was very cautious and made slow progress, and the large army was led by tanks, and the various units did not rush forward without authorization, and the flaws were exposed. Yegorov couldn't help but look at Rokossovsky, the commander of the White Russian Army, and secretly said that although this kid was born in cavalry, he still has some skills in the use of new weapons such as tanks, but he is not a traditional Russian cavalry general. You must know that there are still many cavalry generals in the Soviet army who disdain this kind of slow-moving tank, and only want the bloody scene of ten thousand cavalry charging.

Seeing that Rokossovsky was so "cautious", Yegorov glanced at his position with some concern, and asked a division commander guarding the first line of defense: "This time the march was in a hurry, and I didn't bring anti-tank guns. ”

The Soviet infantry division was staring at the White Russian army opposite, and when he heard his own commander's question, he hurriedly turned his head and said confidently: "Commander, rest assured, the White Russian Army is just an ornament, and our division was also shot with a knife and a shot in the civil war, but if our division is alone, then the White Russian Army will not want to pass through the defense line of our division!" ”

Seeing that his subordinates were confident and did not have the slightest fear because the soldiers and horses under his command were inferior to the White Russian Army, Yegorov couldn't help but be happy, but thinking of the fighting style of the other party in the past few days against the White Russian Army, the other party's fighting style was different from usual, so he reminded him: "Your courage is commendable, but you must be careful and do not underestimate the enemy." Raising his hand behind him, "There are two artillery positions of our army in the two lines of defense behind you, and there are two cavalry regiments, and a thousand cavalry are on either side of you, so you can call for support from them." ”

The infantry division commander did not hold it up, but nodded his head one by one, indicating that he remembered. Yegorov looked at the position of the White Russian army again, "You see, Rokossovsky has already transferred tanks and armored vehicles to the front, it must be mainly armored troops, supplemented by infantry in the middle formation, and the advance is very orderly, it can be seen that he has worked the use of tanks as a weapon, we can't underestimate him, you must know that there are few generals in China who will use tanks as a new weapon on such a large scale." In this battle of Ishim, our army has brought all the nearby teams, if anything goes wrong in this battle, not to mention the recovery of the Ishim line, even the Tyumen line behind us will be exposed under the enemy's artillery. ”

"The commander is right, no matter what time it is, we can't underestimate the enemy. The return of the White Russian army this time shows that the forces of Tsarist Russia are not yet dead. Only by completely destroying them can we make Soviet Russia feel at ease and fight those robbers in Europe. ”

"The power of Tsarist Russia...... The latest news from Moscow said that the White Russian army in front of them is not the same as the Tsarist Russian forces that have stirred up the storm in Europe, and those European Tsarist Russia are bent on restoration or the formation of a bourgeois government, while the White Russia in the Far East is somewhat like Prussia before reunification, taking the line of various minor nobles working together to form the Duma, and is noncommittal about whether it will be restored or not. So recently there have been people in Moscow who have built yì, divided them, and then ...... Forget it, anyway, they are also our enemies at the moment, we suffered too many defeats a few days ago, this time your unit must be in good spirits no matter what, and play the prestige of your unit in the domestic war, and also the prestige of our Soviet soldiers!"

"Yes, Messenger! The herald that in this battle, we must show the prestige of our division in the domestic war, and we must also show the majesty of our Soviet soldiers!"

As he spoke, sporadic shells had begun to fall on the Soviet positions, and the commander of the infantry division was busy saying for the sake of Yegorov's safety: "Commander, the White Russian army has begun artillery reconnaissance, please return to the command post quickly!" ”

Yegorov knew that this was a send-off order, waved his hand, and said with a smile: "You go and get busy, be more careful yourself." After speaking, he added: "If you can't stop it, you will retreat to the second line of defense, and I will tell you to respond to it." ”

"Thank you, Commander."
