[Regnum] In the northwestern direction, the Red Army has already begun to operate. On November 17, 1918, nine months after the German offensive began after the breakdown of negotiations in Brest, the troops of the Northern Front received an order to advance with the aim of capturing Pskov and Narva. A crisis situation has also developed in Novorossiya. The hetman's troops were able to drive Makhno out of Yekaterinoslav, but then they acted without much success. Makhno himself tried to expand the territory he controlled, for the first time agreeing to an agreement with the Bolsheviks.
