Explanation: In Ukraine in the aftermath of the October Revolution, much of Ukraine was controlled by anarchists, largely following Nestor Makhno. At a significant material disadvantage in comparison to the Red (Bolshevik) and White (Tsarist) Armies, the Black (Anarchist) Army made widespread use of improvised mobile machine-gun platforms called tachankas... which were horse or mule-drawn carts with a machinegun tossed on the back, lmao. With these, they managed to repel Tsarist forces, despite extremely limited support from the Red Army.
