In the spring of 1919, Kolchak organized a 150,000-strong White Army to march towards Moscow. The Chinese "Labor Volunteer Corps" led by Zheng Yijing and Jiang Shaowu also joined the White Army, but most of them stayed on the east side of the Ural Mountains to maintain their strength.
Local “security”.
Kolchak's White Guards made good progress initially. General Geda's Czech Corps actually attacked the Ryazan line near Moscow. The situation seemed extremely unfavorable to the Red Army. Ulyanov, the Supreme People's Commissar of the Soviet Union, even issued a "everything"
With the call of "For the Eastern Front" and "Kolchak must be crushed", a large number of party members and workers' Red Guards were sent to the Eastern Front battlefield. The supplemented Soviet Red Army began to launch a counterattack, and the war situation gradually reversed.
The more than 200,000 "Chinese Workers' Corps" following Al Qaeda's Siberian Army immediately began to dismantle local factories after the White Army occupied Izhevsk, Kazan, and Votkinsky, the Russian heavy industry bases and military industry bases.
machinery and equipment, and began large-scale relocation and transfer to Omsk and Yekaterinburg. Large facilities that could not be moved were blasted and destroyed on the spot, because the order from the top was never to leave a complete screw to the Soviets.
.
Under the coercion and inducement of the Chinese Communist Regiment, more than two million Russians in Kazan, Izhevsk, Perm and other places were forced to leave their hometown and move to the other side of the Ural Mountains.
"Wherever the Chinese locusts passed by, all the factories and mines were turned into ruins."
Under Comrade Ulyanov's call of "Everything for the Eastern Front", reinforcements composed of sailors and workers are being continuously sent to the front line from Petrograd and Moscow, while hundreds of thousands of Chinese workers who were forced to stay in Siberia have become
It became the main source of supplementary troops for the White Guards.
Starting from June, the White Guards commanded by Kolchak began to retreat steadily. Frunze commanded the Fourth Army and the Turks Army to launch the Battle of Ufa. The Turkestan Army forcibly crossed the Belaya River and severely damaged the White Guards led by French General Nange.
Orenburg Group, the Fifth Army led by Tukhachevsky liberated Ulyanov's hometown of Simbirsk.
The 2nd and 3rd Red Army Groups led by Shaolin formed the Northern Group and prepared to launch the Battle of Perm. The Chinese Volunteer Army encountered a large-scale battle for the first time.
The Chinese blew up the railway bridge over the Kama River. Several scattered rails were stuck in the river mud, and black smoke was rising from the burning sleepers.
The 2nd Army of the Soviet Red Army launched a counterattack along the Kama River. Azin's 28th Division seized the ferry on the Vyatka River. The Volga Fleet belonging to the Red Army sent two torpedo boats. Under the cover of the torpedo boats, a battalion of Red Army soldiers
The Guardsmen sailed to the other side on barges.
The barge full of soldiers ran aground in the river beach. The soldiers jumped like ducks, flopping! flopping! They all jumped into the two feet of water, with only a few hundred heads exposed on the river.
Boom! Boom! Azin directed his artillery to fire artillery shells at the White Army's position across the river.
Seeing from the telescope the violent explosion of artillery shells on his side of the position, which sent up clouds of mud and thick smoke, Chen Yuanhou was a little worried about whether his "peasants" could withstand it.
Fortunately, before the war, the officers coaxed and frightened their men to a certain extent. Only a few people were frightened to flee the trenches during the shelling. These deserters who left the protection of the trenches were quickly killed by shrapnel flying on the battlefield or
Stray bullets fell on the open ground, and the wounded soldiers who were not killed let out horrifying screams and wails, but no one dared to jump out of the trenches to help them.
"Raise your head and prepare to shoot!" The officers hunched over and ran back and forth in the trenches, kicking some bewildered soldiers on the butts from time to time.
Bang! I don’t know who fired the first shot, and then the gunshots sounded like fried beans, and dense bullets were sprayed on the "watermelons" in the water. Although the shooting skills were not very good, they moved too slowly in the water.
Some Red Guards were exposed.
"Aim and hit again!"
"Damn it, set the scale to 300 yards!"
Most of the workers who participated in the battle for the first time were trembling with nervousness. Many were at a loss as to what to do. Gunfire was sparse. If they had been on flat ground, the Red Guards would have already rushed to the position. Fortunately, the Russians were stuck in the mud on the river beach.
, moves slowly.
Azin was anxious and commanded the artillery battery in his hand to bombard the Chinese position fiercely, suppressing the enemy's counterattack. "Ula!" The Red Guards finally stood on the river bank, preparing to charge.
Beep beep beep beep!
The cunning Chinese actually used the dismantled sleepers and rails to build several bunkers. Several Maxims made a deep sound, which frightened the veterans who had been on the German-Austrian front line. Less than half of their bodies were still in the water.
The Red Guards could not find any cover. The rain of bullets was like a long whip passing over the water, mercilessly beating the people on the water. If they fell to the ground injured, there would be no hope of survival. If they fell into the water, they would only be drowned.
Less than a hundred people barely rushed to the river beach and launched a brave charge towards the Chinese position. But after all, the number was too small. These people were knocked down on the way to the charge, less than 20 meters away from the forward position. The last one to charge
The warrior fell.
Azin's heart was bleeding. The "Communist Battalion", the most courageous and good at fighting under his command, was completely wiped out in the battle with the imperialist squadron.
The Red Army's artillery shells fell like raindrops on the Chinese positions, as if they wanted to avenge their fallen comrades. The laborers, who had only received military training for a few months, shivered and hid in the dug anti-artillery holes, covering their ears and enduring it.
With the impact of the shell explosion, we finally experienced the "baptism of artillery fire".
The Chinese stayed on the Kama and Vyatka rivers for 10 days, and Shaolin's 2nd Army made no progress.
"put!"
Boom! Boom boom boom!
Suddenly, various guns fired at the same time, and the sound of gunshots and desperate shouts were intertwined.
"You can't do this, you can't do this..." A Chinese man wearing the uniform of a Red Guard lieutenant rushed out of the crowd, waving his hands and shouting at the top of his lungs, with tears of regret flowing from his eyes.
Bang! He fell in a pool of blood, "I deserve to die, I shouldn't have advised you to put down your weapons..." Before he died, he turned his eyes to his companions, the Chinese workers who had joined the Red Guards. Some of them moved their mouths.
I started to move, but finally didn't dare to take a step forward.
Nearly two thousand Chinese prisoners of war who were tied up fell to the ground and struggled desperately in pain. An hour later, the crowd finally became silent. Then the Red Russian soldiers began to stab the corpses one by one with bayonets, which lasted from night to dawn.
Berzin's 3rd Army crossed the Kama River from the ruins of Izhevsk. In Nizhni-Kamsk, a regiment of the Chinese Labor Army was surrounded. Under the persuasion of compatriots who joined the Russian Communist Party, this newly formed
The "Migrant Workers' Group" surrendered to the Russians without much resistance. Revolutionary Military Commissar Smirnov hated the Chinese for blowing up all the factories in Izhevsk and ordered all the more than 1,800 prisoners of war to be killed.
execution.
Jiang Shaowu found that one of his regiments was besieged in Nizhni-Kamsk, and immediately ordered the 20th Temporary Division to rush to the rescue. When the Chinese division captured Nizhny-Kamsk, which was guarded by a battalion of the Red Army, the massacre in front of him was like a massacre.
To their shock, nearly 2,000 tied Chinese corpses were piled into a hill, with blood and water flowing everywhere, and it was too horrible to see.
"The enemies you are facing are demons who kill without blinking an eye. Facing such enemies, we must fight bravely. Only by killing them can we have hope of living. Be a coward or a deserter on the battlefield, waiting for you.
This will be the end!" General Jiang stood in front of a pile of blackened corpses with a face filled with grief and anger, and shouted over and over again to his officers and soldiers.
He ordered all the retreating troops of the Seventh Army to return to Nizhnekamsk and line up to visit the Russian "masterpiece". The horrors at the scene left a deep and frightening mark on the hearts of the Chinese soldiers who kept vomiting afterwards. This also increased
In order to strengthen their determination to resist to the death, "We must not allow the Red Russians to take prisoners!" This became the voice of every soldier of the Chinese Communist Regiment.
The atrocities of the Red Army were preached to every unit entering Russia, and fear and anger made the Chinese desperate and crazy.
"Use the red terror of the revolutionaries to counter the white terror of the counterrevolutionaries!"
The two demons brought disaster to the world together.
