The Allied Powers were already moving very fast. On October 19th, the decision was made to send troops. On October 21st, the Allied Powers troops in Eastern Europe moved closer to the Warsaw Strip.

However, this speed is still too slow for the Bolan people in Warsaw City!

In October 192, Frunze launched a surprise attack on Molodechno. The 2nd and 3rd Polish armies were not vigilant about the Soviet actions, so when the Soviet army launched a night attack, the two entire army groups were divided and surrounded.

Although the Polish army responded quickly, Piłsudski immediately ordered the second and third armies to break out. Although the Polish army on the front line fought desperately to open a bloody road, they suffered heavy casualties and were rushed by the Soviet army. On the other side of the Zbruch River, retreat towards Lviv. In this case, the Soviet left-wing troops became salient on the battlefield and could be annihilated by the Soviet troops at any time!

Frunze keenly captured this point. He ordered the Third Cavalry Corps of the Southwest Front to detour from the rear, cut off the Polish army's retreat, and launch a fierce attack on the Polish army from three directions!

This tactic was extremely sharp and decisive. When Piłsudski realized that the Polish troops on the front line were about to fall into a tight siege, they were already helpless!

On October 17, the Third Bollan Army was completely wiped out in the Augustov area.

On the right wing of the Polish army, the Soviet Southwest Front Army is also advancing vigorously, threatening the security of Lublin, the important Polish town!

Piłsudski was in a dilemma. The Soviet troops were divided into two parts, one in the east and one in the north. The Soviet troops in the east were about to attack Lublin, which was the gateway to Pineland. An extremely important key point in the East!

Piłsudski could not bear the serious consequences of the fall here, so he immediately dispatched the Fourth Army into the Lublin area to resist the Soviet army.

Frunze accurately predicted this move. While the Polish army was moving, he ordered the main force of the Soviet army hidden in Bialystok to immediately move westward, taking advantage of the Polish army's strength to be divided into two. Come on, when the defense of Huasha City reveals a huge flaw, it will go straight to Huasha!

This tactic was completely beyond everyone's expectations. Piłsudski never dreamed that the Soviet army would be so reckless. It was extremely dangerous to go deep alone without ensuring the safety of the left and right wings. However, the Polish army was defeated. If there is no defense on either side of the Soviet army on the left and right sides, the advancing Soviet army will become a turtle in the urn of the Polish army!

Warsaw City directly faced the heavy attack of the Soviet army without making much preparation.

Piłsudski rushed back to the capital from the front line. Before the Soviet army launched the attack, he led cavalry division into the capital!

The Soviet army that followed immediately launched a fierce attack on Warsaw!

The Battle of Warsaw begins!

In the early days of the war, the Soviet army advanced with great success, and the rumble of artillery continued in Warsaw.

The people in Warsaw were panicked, and the army's morale was also very low.

The Polish troops stationed in Warsaw were not the most elite, but some second-line troops did not usually undertake combat missions. Almost all of the most elite troops were on the front line at this time and had no time to come back!

It is unbelievable to outsiders that the Bolan people are so lax, but if we combine this with the previous situation, we may be able to understand why they made such low-level mistakes!

Due to the direct intervention of the Allied Powers, the duration and scale of the Woolly Bear Civil War in this time and space were much greater than in history. The Battle of Warsaw was originally supposed to occur in 192, but it did not break out until 1922. At this time, it was still in Star Lin, who initiated it against all objections!

In June 1922, the battlefields of both sides were generally located in the plains of Eastern Europe, at least 300 kilometres away from the mainland of Bolan.

Because the war has never reached their own land, and they are not at a disadvantage on the battlefield, the Bolan people are extremely optimistic about the war. They did not expect that the situation would deteriorate so much in such a short period. quick!

Moreover, Frunze is different from Tukhachevsky. His use of troops is treacherous and not a steady attack. This makes it even more difficult for the Bolan people to judge accurately!

So when the Soviet army attacked Warsaw City, the Bolan people reacted!

For the Soviet army, they had about a week to attack Warsaw!

The battle will be very difficult if they can't capture Warsaw before Polish reinforcements arrive!

Of course Frunze knew this, so at the beginning of the war, he sent out all his troops and launched fierce attacks on Hua Sha again and again!

The Polish army stationed in Warsaw City had very weak combat effectiveness and could not resist the Soviet attack. On just the first day of the war, all the outer defense lines of Warsaw had fallen!

The Soviet vanguard troops have even rushed into Warsaw City!

At the critical moment, Piłsudski personally went into battle and led his own guards to resist desperately. Finally, the Soviet army, exhausted after a day of fierce attack, was forced back!

After forcing the Soviet army back, Piłsudski immediately sent people door-to-door to mobilize the people and distributed weapons to the people. As long as they were over 14 years old, both men and women were issued a rifle and 100 rounds. Bullets, let them pick up weapons and follow the army to fight the enemy!

The population of Warsaw City is about 400,000, of which about 300,000 are over 14 and under 60 years old. Although these 300,000 people have weak combat effectiveness, they are better in numbers.

Piłsudski ordered these people to dig a large number of trenches in the city, transform many houses into fortifications, pile up a large number of sandbags on the streets, and set up a large number of roadblocks on each street.

At a critical juncture of life and death, these mobilized people understand that if they cannot defend their city, then they may not even be able to save their lives!

Therefore, the Bolan people resisted the invaders with almost fatal determination and courage!

When the Soviets launched their attack the next day, they were met with unexpectedly strong firepower.

The Soviet soldiers were very surprised. They didn't know why the enemy's firepower increased so much overnight. The entire city was almost full of enemies!

The Soviet army's feeling was correct. Warsaw City was indeed full of enemies. These enemies may not have been trained, had never been on the battlefield before, had never killed anyone, and some of them had never even fired a gun. They had only experienced a night of emergency. Training, their marksmanship is terrible, but there are so many of them!

An army of 300,000 civilians is scattered in almost every city corner. Once the Soviet army enters the city, they will be attacked from all directions and corners!

Even if these people's marksmanship is terrible, with so many people shooting, a blind cat can cause considerable casualties to the Soviet army if he encounters a dead mouse!

As a result, the Soviet offensive began to suffer serious setbacks!

The Soviet army quickly received this information from the killed enemies. After learning this information, they immediately adjusted their strategies, slowed down the pace of the attack, and began eliminating the enemies inside house by house!

Moreover, many Soviet soldiers did not dare to shoot when civilians attacked them because the people facing them were not enemy soldiers but civilians.

But after receiving too many cold shots, Frunze ordered that Soviet soldiers could shoot at will as long as they felt threatened, regardless of whether the opponent was a civilian or a soldier!

This order just clearly stated that civilians could be massacred!

The Soviet army did indeed do this!

Compared with the regular army, the citizens of Warsaw are still too weak. They lack organization and communication. They almost fight alone, so they cannot take advantage when facing the Soviet army!

Only three days after the war began, more than 100,000 civilians were killed on the battlefield. After the Soviet army put aside their psychological baggage, these civilians were no match for them!

However, although the Soviet army won on the battlefield, it suffered a complete strategic defeat!

They were delayed for so long at the gates of Huasha that a week passed and half of Huasha was still in the hands of the Bolan people!

At this time, the Allied forces had captured Lviv and cut off the Southwest Front's retreat!

What's even worse, the Polish cavalry appeared on the Soviet right wing and began to threaten the retreat of the central Soviet army!
