Former Lieutenant General Vladimir Ivanovich Selivachev. During the offensive, the life of Selivachev, who commanded one of the two shock groups of the Southern Front of the RSFSR, tragically broke off under mysterious circumstances. In the white camp, it was believed that Selivachev deliberately tore the operation of the Reds, because he was a secret opponent of the Bolsheviks, for which he paid for life. In the Red camp, some considered him a hero, others - a potential traitor.
