Soviet forces prepare for massive deployment

Soviet soldiers at the Persian Garrison anticipating a coming offensive

Winter, 1921, Orenburg Garrison: Today at the Soviet 7th Army Headquarters in Orenburg, General Nikolas Bellic outlined his plan for troop deployments across the entire expanse of the western soviet republics -- a plan that (he reported) was also accepted by the Soviet General Staff in Port Arthur. General Bellic said that "[W]e have almost doubled the size of the Soviet military east of the Urals, in anticipation of a forthcoming offensive that will occurr across an epic scope. In anticipation of an enemy counteroffensive anywhere across our home territories, the 19th Don Cavalry Brigade will ride the Trans-Siberian railroad indefinitely, shuttling back and forth between Soviet regional bases, in order to confuse and aggravate any plans for an invasion of the motherland. They will get on at Omsk...and who knows where they'll get off?!"
