Siberian War: Difference between revisions

The Republic capitalized on this opportunity to strike and attacked Soviet lines, whilst Yagoda's government was busy fighting rebels. The Republican Army pushed back the Soviets back to the original frontlines. But, just as the Republican Army attempted to deal a final blow to Yagoda's Army, high-ranking generals and officers revolted against the Tomsk government, leading to the Siberian Black Army claiming independence. [[Rurik II|Nikolai Krylov]]'s Army was ordered to reconquer the territories, but was soon betrayed by [[Nikolai Andreev]] and his soldiers, leading to the operation's failure. In Novosibirsk, [[Alexander Pokryshkin]] and local garrisons declared independence from Tomsk.
