For those confused as to why the just walked towards their opponents trenches instead of running.... This is how it really happened in those times, because if you ran the entire hundreds of meters of no man's land, by the time you reach your opponent you would not anymore stamina to fight anymore... Ideally speaking, you would do this in waves and artillery bombardment(the dust kicked up by explosions or use of smoke shells would cover the advancing infantry), where the first wave would charge and gain ground in no man's land and provide cover fire for the next wave, which would in turn advance beyond the first wave's positions and cover the advance of the next wave.... And they would keep on doing this until they reach the opposite trench.
No Mans Land was historically not very large distances. With the use of the machine gun sometimes No Mans Land was only just a couple dozen meters. The distance needed to cross realistically was VERY runnable if you think about. This I'd say is a left over from colonial days/wars. During flintlock and muskets. This was actually why NO MANS LAND ended up happening so often as military tactics at the time were to meet up somewhere in the middle and duke it out in a line. Sooo they did that except with upgraded firearms. It wasn't until WW2 they realize "This is stupid. We should stop doing this.". REALISTICALLY as well as FICTIONALLY this tactic is very stupid ESPECIALLY given the fact that you're literally in the open and right there. No one would have waited for a women to have been shot and than charged. It was either CHARGE or none at all. The whole bombardment and advance WAS used but it was tactically very bad and not used very often. Communications were very poor compared to todays standards so to bombard on your own troops OR useless bombardment hoping they advanced far enough was always bad. This is just bad screen writing. Plain and simple.
To be fair in an attack like this, a gun really wouldn’t make your odds of survival much better. If anything you might have better odds carrying the instruments. At least then the enemy might consider you a low priority target since you can’t fight.
Sad how these men died for nothing at the end of the day though. However this spirit served their sons and daughters well in the struggle for their homeland 30 years later

My grandfather fought for the Imperial Russian Army in WWI. He was decorated and promoted to Colonel for bravery. However, after disgracing himself by getting drunk at Court in Moscow, he was stationed to Siberia near the Chinese border, not far from Harbin. When the Reds took over, he took his family to Harbin and ten years later, to the US. I have pictures of him, my babushka, and my mother and uncle as small children taken at his post in the Amur region (Cisamur Military District) just north of the Chinese border. He was a bad dude.
By the time the civil war began, most people did not like the church. The priests called for humility, and the people were tired for centuries humbly enduring exploitation.
Zero Ezreal oh yeah, I've watched the last samurai too much, rip. I do know they banzai charged but when they were winning and didn't need to rush they usually just crushed the enemy, just like the second sino-Japanese war, except that the Chinese were charging with their waves of men with not much equipment.

The British slowly walked towards the enemy machine guns due to the creeping barrage tactic. It failed at the Somme, mainly due to timing and communication issues but it was much more successful later in the war. If the men outpaced the barrage, they'd be hit by their own shells.

Michéal Cahill There were two civil wars. The first one took Russia out the war and the second one happened in 1919 when the Red's and Whites went head to head.
My grand-grandpa served in AH army as an officer... before the war he was in a Russian club so when the war broke out instead of sending him to frontline where he could potentially desert to Russians, army command sent him to manage army logistics center far away from frontline. I have photos with him, sitting in a comfy officer house, with a multiple bottles of wine everywhere. One time he became very bored, so he send his adjutant (minor officer) to his hometown so he can bring his wife and my 1y old grandpa to him. I have another photo where grandpa is standing next to grand-grandpa who is on a a horse. In a military camp. 100km from frontline. wife and 1 year old kid. Crazy.

Spring Evans -- Hey, that would be a problem, now that you mention it. Maybe the musicians should be used only when the enemy already knows your location.
Our troops fight on a squad or platoon level these days. To have a musician close enough that everyone could hear it over the sounds of battle you'd have to have like a third of your men as them and that's a waste of man power.
Yog Sothoth -- then we have 2 choices: 1) give every soldier today an iPod that comes preinstalled with marching music, or 2) bring back frontal assaults. I like the 2nd choice most. How are troops supposed to feel like they are part of a magnificent army when they are organized into tiny units? There is a scene in the movie Patton in which Gen. Patton watches a parade of Moroccan (or Algerian?) troops. He is so envious of how colorful their uniforms are and how good their army looks. Soldiers should be given beautiful uniforms and should march to energizing army music. That is how to make soldiers feel proud.
Yeah no. Having everyone wearing ear buds is terrible for your situational awareness which is pretty bloody important on a battle field. And you know you kinda need to hear orders and information which is hard enough when bullets are flying round your ears so making that harder isn't a good idea. Then operating with your troops making mass advances on a company scale is why things like the somme happened. You get a few MGs or mortars in the wrong place and you've fucked everyone. And sure having a marching band in your return of leaving parade is pretty good but its no longer practical on the battlefield. Anyway half the reason why we had musicians was to relay orders and we have radios now.
Fun Fact: The surviving and fleeing White Russians took refuge in the Philippines after the Bolshevik Revolution by the way. The Filipinos welcomed them with open arms.
I really like this scene, it always reminds me of how a human being will always fight for what he thinks is right. Here, you can see how the general tries to give them a speech about god and even puts on music to pump them up, but they are like "meh, sure, whatever". And yet, all it took was a woman dying for them to charge the enemy like madmen. People will fight like lions for the simplest of reasons, and i find that fascinating.
They killed a woman who only wanted to help her fellow man and serve god since she thought she could do the most good by following his will. They killed a innocent and at that moment confirmed that they are morally evil. When morality and logic shows you that your enemy is wrong then you are compelled to end that enemy with whatever is in hand even if you will die trying since a world run by that enemy would be worse than death.

I find this scene really interesting. Excluding politics for a moment, and zooming in on the individual soldiers/commanders, this scene really doesn’t have a bad guy. The reds are the enemy obviously, the antagonist, and they do shoot a medic/nurse, but clearly not out of malice/intent. They are defending their positions. The commanders aren’t these unfeeling monsters sending their men to die. The Junior commander clearly does not want to go out there, but he has his orders and he leads them from the front, at least not condemning them to a fate he won’t endure himself. The senior commander is clearly in a rough spot. He doesn’t want to condemn his men to die but what right does he have to condemn the rest of the Whites, who are relying on him to a similar fate. The scene shows I think, what is the reality of war. A mix of mostly good-average people killing each other for their own internally justifiable aims. It makes it even sadder than if there was a clear bad vs good.

If they immediately started running, they would've gotten tired and slowed down near the end. The bayonet charge tactic is usually supposed to scare the enemy into running away (which it did), so they needed to save their energy for when they were closer to the Red lines and could fully close the distance in a charge.

He never wanted to rule Russia, but he tried, and the Bolsheviks murdered him and his family for it.
Watched the whole film in Russian, this is pretty much the only good scene in the whole movie. Shame, because it's such a fascinating part of Russian history. Fortunately there are better Russian Civil War movies out there.
"Свой среди чужих, чужой среди своих" is a great Western set during the Russian Civil War but not sure you can find it with English subtitles, "Белое солнце пустыни" is another awesome Western-style movie set during this period, pretty sure you can find it with subtitles. Doctor Zhivago is of course an epic. "Тихий Дон" (And Quiet Flows the Don), based on the epic novel of the same name that has been made into a movie (and a TV mini-series) - I like the 2005 version personally if you can find it. For a bit of a more humorous and adventurous movie I also greatly recommend "Неуловимые Мстители", but it's more for children and teens but still has some pretty great jokes and action. I'll try to think of others later.

My great great grandad was also born and fought the russian empire. He then joined the polish army and fought in the Polish Soviet war, tragically the reds caught up with him in 1940. He was executed in April in the Katyń masacre
Hard to believe that they actually employed suicidal tactics like this. Disperse! Flank! Get low! Run! Dont bunch up and walk in a slow, neat group towards the machine gun. You couldn't conceive a worse approach if you tried.
Alexander Millar tactics aren't that flexible yet during world war 1. Their definition of flanking is not applied in a tactical scale but rather in a operational or strategic scale
Yeah, maybe. The problem must've been organisational; an arrogant officer class who thought they knew best how to preserve the soldiers they had and take victory. If they took 30 seconds on the ground to assess the actual situation, they'd know instantly that rigid, disciplined lines wouldnt work. But idk. Maybe they couldnt trust their soldiers very much with initiative. Leave them in small parties with broad direction and they'd probably not coordinate effectively or even desert/surrender.
Alexander Millar It happened a few times during the RCW (Russian civil war), because of the atrocious state of weapon and munition supplies. In this case ours (Whites) have a dozen bullets left. The others (Reds) are not much better- they have a machinegun, but are fewer in numbers. So the charge is a desperate, but not illogical decision. p. s. A couple of years earlier similar type of charges managed to take the first line of the defender's positions. The problem was the 2nd,3rd, etc lines and the reinforcements which came to counterattack. Here there is no 2nd line for Reds to fall back and no one other unit coming to support them.
I'd like to contrast this scene with the scene in Saving Private Ryan where they take the machine gun nest. Anyone who has any respect for their own life would instinctively look to encircle etc. Why not wait for cover of darkness? It's mad
This is actually a historically practiced advance. Before military doctrine was changed, soldiers going over the tip were specifically told to walk and not run so you don't trip over dead bodies or tire yourself too much.

My grand-grandpa served in AH army as an officer... before the war he was in a Russian club so when the war broke out instead of sending him to frontline where he could potentially desert to Russians, army command sent him to manage army logistics center far away from frontline. I have photos with him, sitting in a comfy officer house, with a multiple bottles of wine everywhere. One time he became very bored, so he send his adjutant (minor officer) to his hometown so he can bring his wife and my 1y old grandpa to him. I have another photo where grandpa is standing next to grand-grandpa who is on a a horse. In a military camp. 100km from frontline. wife and 1 year old kid. Crazy.
The closes he was to battle was during Brusilov Offensive. Basically the frontline came to him.

Why don't we have army musicians now? Where have they all gone? They work wonders for troop morale.
GregoryTheGr8ster The enemy will know the location
Spring Evans -- Hey, that would be a problem, now that you mention it. Maybe the musicians should be used only when the enemy already knows your location.
Our troops fight on a squad or platoon level these days. To have a musician close enough that everyone could hear it over the sounds of battle you'd have to have like a third of your men as them and that's a waste of man power.
Yog Sothoth -- then we have 2 choices: 1) give every soldier today an iPod that comes preinstalled with marching music, or 2) bring back frontal assaults. I like the 2nd choice most. How are troops supposed to feel like they are part of a magnificent army when they are organized into tiny units? There is a scene in the movie Patton in which Gen. Patton watches a parade of Moroccan (or Algerian?) troops. He is so envious of how colorful their uniforms are and how good their army looks. Soldiers should be given beautiful uniforms and should march to energizing army music. That is how to make soldiers feel proud.
Yeah no. Having everyone wearing ear buds is terrible for your situational awareness which is pretty bloody important on a battle field. And you know you kinda need to hear orders and information which is hard enough when bullets are flying round your ears so making that harder isn't a good idea. Then operating with your troops making mass advances on a company scale is why things like the somme happened. You get a few MGs or mortars in the wrong place and you've fucked everyone. And sure having a marching band in your return of leaving parade is pretty good but its no longer practical on the battlefield. Anyway half the reason why we had musicians was to relay orders and we have radios now.
I love that the defenders stopped firing for a second when the nurse was killed
The music playing and army marching into hail of bullets always give me the chills

I really like this scene, it always reminds me of how a human being will always fight for what he thinks is right. Here, you can see how the general tries to give them a speech about god and even puts on music to pump them up, but they are like "meh, sure, whatever". And yet, all it took was a woman dying for them to charge the enemy like madmen. People will fight like lions for the simplest of reasons, and i find that fascinating.
They killed a woman who only wanted to help her fellow man and serve god since she thought she could do the most good by following his will. They killed a innocent and at that moment confirmed that they are morally evil. When morality and logic shows you that your enemy is wrong then you are compelled to end that enemy with whatever is in hand even if you will die trying since a world run by that enemy would be worse than death.

I find this scene really interesting. Excluding politics for a moment, and zooming in on the individual soldiers/commanders, this scene really doesn’t have a bad guy.
The reds are the enemy obviously, the antagonist, and they do shoot a medic/nurse, but clearly not out of malice/intent. They are defending their positions.
The commanders aren’t these unfeeling monsters sending their men to die. The Junior commander clearly does not want to go out there, but he has his orders and he leads them from the front, at least not condemning them to a fate he won’t endure himself.
The senior commander is clearly in a rough spot. He doesn’t want to condemn his men to die but what right does he have to condemn the rest of the Whites, who are relying on him to a similar fate.
The scene shows I think, what is the reality of war. A mix of mostly good-average people killing each other for their own internally justifiable aims. It makes it even sadder than if there was a clear bad vs good.

If they immediately started running, they would've gotten tired and slowed down near the end.

Watched the whole film in Russian, this is pretty much the only good scene in the whole movie. Shame, because it's such a fascinating part of Russian history. Fortunately there are better Russian Civil War movies out there.
razorboy251 Any suggestions about those movies?
"Свой среди чужих, чужой среди своих" is a great Western set during the Russian Civil War but not sure you can find it with English subtitles, "Белое солнце пустыни" is another awesome Western-style movie set during this period, pretty sure you can find it with subtitles. Doctor Zhivago is of course an epic. "Тихий Дон" (And Quiet Flows the Don), based on the epic novel of the same name that has been made into a movie (and a TV mini-series) - I like the 2005 version personally if you can find it. For a bit of a more humorous and adventurous movie I also greatly recommend "Неуловимые Мстители", but it's more for children and teens but still has some pretty great jokes and action. I'll try to think of others later.
razorboy251 the naval battle at the beginning was also great
And also there is "Гибель Империи" ("Fall of The Empire"). But it is more about counterintelligence, WW1 and Revolution in 1917.
It's probably where all the budget went.

Hard to believe that they actually employed suicidal tactics like this. Disperse! Flank! Get low! Run! Dont bunch up and walk in a slow, neat group towards the machine gun. You couldn't conceive a worse approach if you tried.
Alexander Millar tactics aren't that flexible yet during world war 1. Their definition of flanking is not applied in a tactical scale but rather in a operational or strategic scale
Yeah, maybe. The problem must've been organisational; an arrogant officer class who thought they knew best how to preserve the soldiers they had and take victory. If they took 30 seconds on the ground to assess the actual situation, they'd know instantly that rigid, disciplined lines wouldnt work.
But idk. Maybe they couldnt trust their soldiers very much with initiative. Leave them in small parties with broad direction and they'd probably not coordinate effectively or even desert/surrender.
Alexander Millar
It happened a few times during the RCW (Russian civil war), because of the atrocious state of weapon and munition supplies.
In this case ours (Whites) have a dozen bullets left. The others (Reds) are not much better- they have a machinegun, but are fewer in numbers. So the charge is a desperate, but not illogical decision.
p. s. A couple of years earlier similar type of charges managed to take the first line of the defender's positions. The problem was the 2nd,3rd, etc lines and the reinforcements which came to counterattack. Here there is no 2nd line for Reds to fall back and no one other unit coming to support them.
I'd like to contrast this scene with the scene in Saving Private Ryan where they take the machine gun nest. Anyone who has any respect for their own life would instinctively look to encircle etc. Why not wait for cover of darkness? It's mad
Always stockpile enough ammo before fighting communists and their lemming footsoldiers.
