28 agos 1916 año - Situation on 15 August

Descripción:

On 15 [August] the official Labanov arrived in Zharkent from Podgorny stanitsa, and reported that Karkara had been laid under siege by Kirgiz. [...] Geitsig will not be able to defend Toqmaq and Pishpek for long. Alatyrtsev is needed in Vernyi. In light of this, I ask in earnest that besides Burzi, another eight companies with artillery and cavalry be moved without delay from Andijan to Przheval’sk district, and that from Tashkent, at least eight companies with artillery be moved to Vernyi for operations to support Zharkent and Przheval’sk. I await decisive assistance. Collapsing p114
