Reading about it, it seems like the war (or more correctly the peace) was the major issue which lead the Left-SRs to rebel against the Bolshevik rule and history sides with the Bolsheviks in that regard. Historically the Bolsheviks went so far as to openly demonstrate that they were completely incapable of fighting off the Germans (in the worst way possible), yet the Left-SRs went so far as to start assassinating Germans to restart the war.

How could the Bolsheviks have kept the Left-SRs on their side without the war going well? So long as there is still an equivalent to the October Revolution (i.e. seizure of power by the soviet-supported Bolsheviks), anything else goes.
