WI Alexi Brusilov sided with the whites what would happen

Not much - Brusilov stayed out of the conflict until 1920, and by that time the Whites had been driven back to the Crimea and Far East and were being finished off, and reaching them to join them would have bene both difficult and futile. It was at this point that he accepted an advisory position with the Red Army. Brusilov believed that, before any political priority, his mission was to save Russia from invaders and seperatists, and so it seems to me that he waited until one side had clearly won and was hence in a position to fend off the Poles, and then offered them his services.

If the Whites took Moscow in 1919, you might well see him throw in his lot with them; but that's an effect rather than a cause.
 
Oh So it's impossible, or could Brusilov lead the whites in the beggining of the revoulution by siding with provisional gov. Since he was Alexander Kerensky's friend.

He put himself at the government's disposal and led the Kerensky offensive, but the PG itself dismissed him owing to its failure and his politically unpopular positions. If the PG had been able to save itself somehow, it would have continued to have his loyalty.
 
Could the pg survive...

If the war ended quickly enough (or it for some reason decided to sign a seperate peace) and it didn't do anything too stupid, probably.

Really, though, Brusilov would work for the Anrcho-Syndicalist Commune of the Russian Peoples if they were the ones in position to defend its territory against foreigners.
