Army of Arkadia

this is the plan for the taking of Piiteri

The attack of Peterburi
:
The Plan
The attack on Piiteri was just an operation in a much bigger plan, with a code name Kalevalanmaa(the land of Kalevala), there were many fronts and directions of attack
The front of Aunus:1 division plus some local Karelian volunteer units, its goal was to take the city of Petroskoi and the areas between lake Laatokka and lake Äänisjärvi(Onega) aka Aunus.
The front of Viipuri:2 divisions, went towards Piiteri
, there were also 3 control lines to make:
1st line: the Union forces had to take the forts of Krasnaja Gorka, in Ingermanland and Ino, near Viipuri, that defended St Petersburg and its primary defence, the city of Kronstad.
Also, the finnish troops needed to take the cities of Petroskoi, estonians had to take the cities of Võnnu(Cesis), Aluliina(Aluksne, Marienburg) and Pihkva(Pskov).
2nd line: Union forces have surrounded the city of St Petersburg and taken the city of Kronstad,on the island of Kotlin, with a landingon it, the areas of Aunus and Ingeria are under the control of the Union, the Estonians would have taken the city of Riia(Riga) and Jakobstad(Jekabpils)
and continue the attack in Latgale and in southern Ingria against Novgorod
3rd line:The city of St Petersburg is taken for the Union,the cities of Novgorod and Laatokanlinna(Novaja Ladoga) are taken and thus the connection is founded with the forces in Aunus, the Estonians have also made a landing into the north of Livonia

Operation Kalevalanmaa was a sucess, the Estonian and Finnish troops surrounded St Petersburg which defence was leaded by Trotsky himself.
The bloodiest battles in the whole operations were the battles of Chudovo, a major railroad point that unified St Petersburg and Moscow, finally the Unions forces won and Piiteri was completely surrounded.
The Latvian ( communist) rifles were totally crushed and demoralized after the battle of Segewold(Sigulda in Latvian) which lasted for a week and where the Estonians lost over 2500 men and the Latvians more than 3000(big numbers for little nations;)), the Estonians were revengeful against Latvians and robbed and killed locals. This caused a massive emigration of Latvians in Vidzeme(north Latvia, means Livonia because its ancient inhabitants the Livonians), the Latvian whites leaded by Karlis Ulmanis protested and the British were angry too, because of this, Mannerheim and Laidoner ordered to execute the biggest maradeurs? but this didnt stopped the robberies and the emigration of Latvians:
The Finnish troops in Aunus Karelia didnt get well with the British who were fighting with the Reds and the most radical officers in Fiinish army demanded the expulsion of the British, the Estonian officers opposed them.
Generally there were some tensions between the Finnish and Estonian officers because the Finns were quite germanophils while the Estonians supported the Antant and the British most.
The fall of St Petersburg was only a matter of days, the Finnish volunteers under H.Kalm and the regiment of Kuperjanovs partisans under Kuperjanov attacked the city of Kronstad on the island of Kotlin, the chief commander of the operation Sailing the Sampo was an Estonian admiral J.Pitka, the operation was a success, but with heavy losses and the city of Piiteri was defenceless.

Meanwhile in the city of Tartu, a fenno-ugrian linguist M.J.Eisen was mobilizing armed forces from his students.When the commandant of Tartu visited him he said that as the freedom of Estonians is secured he must help other finno-ugric people to gain independence.His estonian, finnish and ingrian men formed a squad with over 500 soldiers.

What will happen to Skt. Petersburg once the Finnish/Estonian seizes the city? Mass expulsion of Russians, or simply a bargaining chip in the peace negotiations.
 
there is gonna be a coup in Finland Estonia and the radical nationalists are gonna take over, the russian proletariat masses are going to be brainwashed and handed over to Yudenich to form an army(zombie whites, sounds like a Soviet horror movie:p)the intelligents and nobility can stay and the union is officialy proclaimed in the Winter palace
