Tukhachevsky once again became the focus of attention on the battlefield, but unlike the heroes of the Civil War who killed the White Army and the dead dogs, this time he seemed to have become an unsupportable Adou, disappointing Trotsky and the Politburo again and again. If it weren't for the fact that no one would take over the mess of Poland, the Politburo would have removed it.

At this difficult moment, the Military Commission and some leaders of the Central Committee believed that the complete collapse of Poland was inevitable, and that the only way to do this was to withdraw from Poland and rebuild the defensive line on the front line of Ukraine and Belarus.

There are even some strange people who believe that Ukraine and Belarus cannot hold on at all, and in order to prevent the situation from developing in the worst direction, the best way to resolve the crisis is peace talks. The representative of this view is Kamenev, who is known to all of us. Comrade Shi deserves to be the first wonder in the history of the Bolsheviks, every time at the turning point of history, he can always make the most wrong choice, and he never tires of it, let us applaud his spirit of desperate death!

Fortunately, Kamenev belonged to a small group of heretics in the party after the victory of the October Revolution and did not represent the most mainstream opinion. Neither Lenin, nor Trotsky, nor Petitsch, nor Steel, nor Bukharin would have allowed this capitulationist rhetoric to reveal, and in a matter of minutes they united with Kamenev.

Of course, Zinoviev was very amusing during this period, although he was on the side of the mainstream opinion in the final vote, his speech and his expression revealed that he and Kamenev were the same kind of people at all, and that they eventually ended up in hell together in history.

After some urgent discussions. The Central Committee reached a unanimous opinion. That is to keep fighting. We must not compromise with the evil imperialism, but we must carry the world revolution through to the end!

In accordance with the advice of the Central Committee, the Military Commissar quickly made a new arrangement, asking Tukhachevsky to buy as much time as possible in Warsaw, and it would be good to hold out for an extra hour. And the Belarusian Front should retreat in the direction of Brest at full speed and seize the time to build positions, as for the Ukrainian Front, it should rush to Brest by means of a hasty march, after the two armies have converged. Relying on the fortress of Brest to block the pace of the imperialist invading army.

Of course, the most interesting thing about this resolution is that the Baltic Front is forgotten, and the tasks of this front are not mentioned, as if this front did not participate in the battle.

Was it a mistake by the Military Commission?

It is certainly impossible, if the heads of the Central Military Commission dare to make such a nonsensical mistake, then the Politburo headed by Lenin will be able to let them all go to the labor reform camp to dig coal and work as coolies. Dare to flirt with the Politburo, you're tired of it, aren't you!

The Military Commission certainly did not have the courage to do so, and the reason why they "forgot" about the Baltic Front was very simple, it was instructed by the Politburo. In fact, a brief analysis will show why the Politburo is doing this.

Because Tukhachevsky was beaten to tears on the front line in Warsaw. The guide zhì completely collapsed. At this time, it was impossible for the forces of the Belorussian Front to continue to maneuver with the Entente forces in Poland, and it was inevitable to shrink. And after the contraction of the Belarusian Front, East Prussia was left to dry.

Suffice it to say, a huge East Prussia became a salient on the battlefield and inevitably besieged by the Allied armies. It is a pity that neither the Politburo nor the Military Commission can give East Prussia much help. And from the point of view of defending Belarus and Ukraine, it seems that it is the best option to let East Prussia contain some more enemies and buy more time.

It can be said that East Prussia has been abandoned by the Politburo and the Military Commission, but they cannot say it openly. Otherwise, think about it, what do you think of this decision of the Politburo and the Military Commission, Li Xiaofeng? And what will the Jews of East Prussia think? Will they willingly become outcasts?

Therefore, the best way is not to say it, simply not mention it, and do it tacitly first, anyway, the starting point of the Politburo and the Military Commission is to preserve the overall situation, and for the sake of the overall situation, the East Prussia and the Baltic Front can be sacrificed!

Undoubtedly, such a decision is very cruel and impersonal, but this is the political zhì, the despicable and shameless government that only talks about the result and does not talk about the process. If he follows the script of the Politburo and the Central Military Commission, Li Xiaofeng will definitely end in tragedy. But fortunately, in this big drama in Poland, a certain immortal never planned to act according to the script of the Politburo.

From the very beginning, Li Xiaofeng was ready to clean up the mess and did not expect much from Trotsky and Tukhachevsky at the beginning. So in the previous month, the East Prussian and Baltic Fronts had been actively preparing for war and had been accumulating strength. And now, when Tukhachevsky couldn't hold on, Li Xiaofeng knew it was his turn to take it seriously.

"Our army will concentrate nine divisions to attack the area west of Warsaw, cut off the supply lines of the Entente forces in one fell swoop, and look for opportunities to annihilate two or three divisions of the enemy, completely disrupting the enemy's attempt to besiege Warsaw and threaten Belarus and Ukraine."

While Li Xiaofeng launched a counterattack at Szczecin with a small force, at Danzig, the Baltic Front and the East Prussian People's Liberation Army under the command of Ubolevich also held the last military meeting of officers above the division level before the offensive.

In the third hour after this meeting, a large army of six infantry divisions, two special columns, and three separate brigades moved rapidly towards the west of Warsaw, and according to Ubolevich's orders, all troops were to be in their assigned positions within three days, and on the fourth day after the operation began, a battle of annihilation had to begin.

Unbeknownst to the Entente, they were still intoxicated by their previous victories and were still wondering how to carry out a victory parade in Warsaw. Of course, Tukhachevsky, the genius commander is already exhausted, and he has to pay a lot of money for every hour he holds on, watching the fighters who followed him step by step from the Ural Mountains to Ukraine and then into Belarus until they arrived in Warsaw continue to fall and die, Tukhachevsky's heart is dripping blood.

Sometimes he really wanted to take the rest of the troops with him, but reason told him. Escaping like this is bound to be a dead end. If not to buy a little more time for the main forces retreating to Brest. By the time the Entente troops arrived at that fortress, the Belorussian Front would only reap another crushing defeat!

The last period of his time in Warsaw was a torment for the genius commander, and Tukhachevsky felt a sense of being away from home, recalling the spirits he had just captured the city.

Thirty years in the east of the river and thirty years in the west of the river, at this time, looking at Warsaw, which is close at hand, Pilsudski probably really wants to look up to the sky and laugh three times, and then roar: "I, Hu Hansan, are back again!" ”

Even the future Polish dictator thought of more possibilities. It is no longer a problem to defeat the Belarusian Front, under the powerful blow of the godfather's army, the Bolsheviks are nothing more than chickens and dogs, what is the recovery of Warsaw, and what is the recovery of the whole territory of Poland? Is it far from recovering Poland, the three Baltic states and even Belarus and Ukraine?

At that moment, the dream of Greater Poland, which had been forgotten by Pilsudski once upon a time, was once again revived, and this time he thought that the conditions were fully ripe and that no force or anyone could stand in his way!

It has to be said that in this book Pilsudski is an out-and-out harlequin. Every time his ambition was on the move, some immortal would intervene in a very unpleasant way. Nip its ambitions in the bud, and this time is no exception.

When Pilsudski's Polish "Imperial Army" helped the godfathers maintain local order and eliminated the lone Red Army soldiers and defeated the water dogs, Ubolevich's army rushed to them like a divine soldier.

Facts have proved that the combat effectiveness of the "Imperial Allied Army" is really very problematic, and in just one face, these guys who were very proud of their martial arts before have appeared in their original form, and in just one round, this gang of goods collapsed. Ubolevich swept the bunch clean like an autumn wind sweeping away leaves.

"Comrade company commander, what to do with these Polish puppet troops?"

"According to the orders of the superiors, shoot them all!"

Neither the Red Army soldiers of the Baltic Front nor the Jewish fighters of the East Prussian People's Liberation Army had a good opinion of the Polish footcloth. Because these people are really bad, abusing and mutilating Red Army prisoners, bullying Jewish civilians, and the hatred on them is really blind.

In order to get rid of these scum whose combat effectiveness is about 5, both the Red Army and the Jews have adopted the simplest way, the Polish Imperial Allied Army that dares to resist must resolutely strike at them, kill them all, turn around and run after them, chase them if they can, and if they can't catch up, they will be counted as lucky, as for those who are captured and surrendered, they will be shot, anyway, the means of dealing with them are quite simple and rude.

And it was precisely because of this simple and crude way of dealing with it that after the war, Pilsudski's godfathers were unhappy, and they occupied the commanding heights of humanitarianism to condemn the atrocities of the Red Army, and there was an uproar for a time.

However, this method can't hurt a certain immortal at all, and it can't even disgust a certain immortal. Who allowed the public opinion of US imperialism to be basically controlled by the Jewish consortium? When the godfathers mentioned the atrocities of the Red Army, the Jews propagated Pilsudski's atrocities.

To get back to the point, after the attack on the Polish Imperial Allied Army, the godfathers of the Entente countries did not pay attention to it immediately. The reason is very simple, the godfathers have never thought that the Polish Imperial Allied Army has any combat effectiveness, and their impression has always stayed on bullying the soft and fearing the hard. thinks that these goods are at most going to the countryside to bully the common people, and when they encounter the Red Army, they will be thinned out instantly. Before, these guys were beaten by a small group of Red Army more than once to cry dad and cry mother, and when the godfather's army drove over to eliminate the so-called "main force of the Red Army", they couldn't cry or laugh.

So when Pilsudski's cowards once again used the Ultimate Summoning Dafa to seek the help of the godfather, the godfather was also impatient, who made the godfathers only think about entering Warsaw, and they were no longer interested in the so-called "main force of the Red Army".

"Let Pilsudski figure it out on his own, he must show the ability to control Poland, otherwise what are we raising him for!"

Well, Pilsudski was tragic in an instant, and the Allied godfathers really didn't expect that this Nima was a pit, and when Ubolevich's army surrounded Pilsudski's Imperial Concorde army and showed a tendency to eat it in one bite, the Allied generals realized that something was wrong.

"Damn, aren't the main forces of the Baltic Front and the Jews holding on to East Prussia and Szczecin? Where did these troops come from? ”

What's that. This is a misunderstanding. Presumably, the Baltic Front and the East Prussian People's Liberation Army were too successful in their previous flickering. So much so that the Entente bloc was delusional. And this illusion is that the main forces of the Baltic Front are in Szczecin, and the main forces of the People's Liberation Army of East Prussia only want to hold on to East Prussia.

Therefore, they did not expect that Ubolevich, who had been pretending to be quails before, would suddenly kill and directly explode their chrysanthemums. When Berlin's roads and railways to Warsaw were cut off, leaving the Polish Imperial Allies under siege once again, the Entente was caught off guard.

Is it to continue the attack on Warsaw? Or do you turn around and open up the lines of communication?

Foch was a little hesitant, because he wanted both Warsaw and the rear lines of communication, and he didn't want to give up any of them. But the old saying goes. You can't have both fish and bear's paws, an old fox like Foch still has basic military knowledge, and if both sides want to take care of it, then either end may not be pleased.

And at this time, it is necessary to analyze carefully, what to analyze? Of course, it is to analyze how many troops Ubolevich actually has. If the Ubolevichs are outnumbered, then give up the assault on Warsaw for the time being, and deal with this tail first. On the contrary, if Ubolevich did not have many troops, and only took advantage of the sneak attack and the low combat effectiveness of the Polish Imperial Allied Army, then he might as well take care of both ends.

So Foch learned that the back road was cut off. The order was issued at the first time: "Dispatch four to six regiments of troops to conduct a fire reconnaissance and find out the enemy's reality!" ”

Why four or six regiments? Because according to the previous experience of fighting with the Belarusian Front. Foch believed that the Red Army's overall ability to attack fortifications was limited, and it did not have the ability to eat up more than one of his divisions in a short period of time. And four to six regiments are just a little more than a full-fledged division, and if they really run into a large force of the Red Army, even if they can't run away, they can guarantee that they will not be eaten by the Red Army in one bite.

From this point of view, Foch was still more cautious, at least much more cautious than Tukhachevsky at the beginning of the decisive battle of Warsaw, when Xiao Tu was really adventurous and gambling.

According to Foch's orders, the Allied forces attacking Warsaw had to withdraw some of their forces, and in fact, the British, French, and American powers responsible for attacking Warsaw were unwilling to spare their forces to rescue the Poles. They all wanted the honor of capturing Warsaw, and compared to this honor, what was the rescue of the Polish doglegs?

So much so that Foch had to coordinate the work, so that he could persuade the three families to contribute one-third of their troops each, so that everyone would not suffer. The Americans and the French contributed two regiments, while the British contributed a brigade.

This patchwork force was temporarily placed under the command of a French major general, but the major general Gaspar did not like the task at all, because neither the Americans nor the British liked him, and the only troops he could really command were his own two regiments. This made the proud French feel that they were being used by relegation.

Not only were the troops reluctant to obey orders, but more importantly, the British and American commanders who fought with him were also very divided. The British advocated caution and prudent investment of troops, while the enthusiastic American cowboy was eager to throw all his troops into it in one fell swoop. All in all, these two groups of people quarreled so much that neither of them was convinced.

So what is the plan of Major General Gaspar himself? Is he cautious or aggressive? It must be said that the attitude of the British and the Americans gave the Major General a great stimulus, because Gaspar felt that whoever he agreed to would not show the leadership of the French, and the proud French cared a lot about this kind of face-saving problem.

In order to show his authority, Major General Gaspar disagreed with both the British and the Americans, believing that the British were too conservative and the Americans too radical. So how exactly do the French want to fight?

Well, let's put it this way, the proud French haven't figured it out yet. He felt that he had plenty of time to think about it, and he believed that he would be able to come up with a special and perfect construction.

Yes, in the opinion of Major General Gaspar, the Polish Imperial Allied Army is not dead anyway, since the Poles are not finished yet, then he still has time. Of course, even if the Poles are finished, the major general thinks it's not a big problem, three-legged toads are not easy to find, two-legged Polish footcloths are everywhere, the old ones don't go and the new ones don't come, it's a big deal to catch the strong men!

As a result, the fire reconnaissance unit, which was supposed to be actively engaged in the operation to find out the strength of Ubolevich, actually stopped at the same place and rested, and a large division of men and horses waited for Major General Gaspar to come up with a perfect construction that would also highlight the superiority of the French. Until, until they were surrounded by Ubolevich's troops......

In fact, Ubolevich is also quite strange, he had noticed this Entente army before, and it seemed that they were preparing to rescue the Polish Imperial Allied army, because it seemed that there were quite a lot of people, and it couldn't be that these thousands of people came to watch him beat Poland and wipe their feet, right?

So at the beginning, Ubolevich also sent troops to make adjustments and prepare for a difficult blocking battle, but who would have thought that the blocking troops would wait left and right and just didn't see the enemy moving. It wasn't until they ate the Polish footcloth that they realized that the enemy had really come to watch and beat soy sauce!

Well, Ubolevich really broke his glasses at the time, but he quickly reacted, isn't it good? Before, he was still thinking about how to gather the enemies who divided the hedgehogs, but now there is no need to waste brain cells, the enemy is automatically sent to the door, so what's polite, let's talk about beating him! (To be continued......)
