Back of Beyond - Winter 1920/21

 As cold winds blew in from the North, the armies of the region took up winter quarters and gathered what resources they could. Reinforcements were recruited and trained. In some cases, entire new battalions raised. Then they marched in preparation for spring campaigning. 

Some took a longer, more circuitous route through back woods deeper into the motherland of Russia! 

Dispositions at the beginning of Spring 1921. 

Unless things get REALLY EXCITING and players reengage, this will probably be the last year. The outcome of the Russian Civil War would ultimately be decided elsewhere... But this may redraw the borders between China and Russia somewhat!

    1. You will have to elaborate, I'm not sure what you're winky-emoticoning about.
