First turn retreat of Sorokin

In every game after Denikin assault in Zernograd, Sorokin is retreating to rural region by crossing a river but not to Salsk. By then becoming more easy target for Mamontov. When unlocked in the second turn it takes 3 days to move to Salsk while 4 days to move that region. Shouldn't be the retreat priority be a city or structure first.

Logically, he should first retreat to and regroup in Salsk. But a full retreat in the face of superiour numbers/troops, towards Tsaritzyn, is faster if not going through Salsk.

Logicaly, on the FIRST turn formation in the close proximity to enemy should not be locked just to became sitting duck.

That was something I found very dissapointing in the newer versions of the game. The antidote is simple:
Detach one cavalry regiment from Udovenko and send it to Maloorlovskiy.

To me this seems reasonable.

Maybe that is the logic behind retreat priority. then it should be wad.

I think cossacks should be locked for 1-2 turns as it is giving big disadvange to Red player. 30-35K men can get isolated fast.

That could work.
