Chapter 381: An Opponent to Value
The Soviet army has gone through a very bumpy path of development.
This kind of bump and bump is mainly concentrated in the outbreak of the Soviet-German war, when a large number of Soviet active troops were quickly defeated by Germany, the Soviets with the help of the huge officer framework of the army, the newly formed troops, also gave the Germans a super headache, and even lost World War II in history.
In the Soviet troops before World War II, each level of the unit generally had two sets of officers, one of which led the troops to the battlefield, leaving the other set of officers to form a new unit of the same formation.
The military chief and deputy military chief constituted the huge defense military force of the Soviet Union.
This is also why the Soviet Union was able to burst out thousands of divisions after the outbreak of war.
Only with the presence of these backbone officers can we quickly build a sufficiently large troop structure.
But this is quite cruel to those Soviet soldiers who have not held guns, or even only a few days of military training, and are not even very numerous.
In the later period, the Soviet army was growing, and it was basically the combat capability of the troops that was trained under the repeated blows of the German elite troops and in the iron-blooded environment of actual combat.
The pursuit of the Germans taught the Soviet soldiers to send scouts around the area where they were stationed to reconnoiter the situation, to learn the habit of stopping and building fortifications about to build, and to sleep without dragging their clothes or letting their weapons leave their hands.
In this cruel combat environment, in the face of the pressure of survival, as long as you can survive, you will have great growth.
So far, judging by the performance of the Soviet army, many of the performances of the Soviet army are, in fact, more and more like the German army.
It's just that there are some differences in details, learn the enemy's excellent style, and integrate your own characteristics.
Although each soldier still wears a green uniform and a Soviet-style helmet, it is a completely different look than before.
However, there are still many facts that show that there are still many gaps between the Soviets and the German army.
One is the structure of the army as a whole, which has not achieved a clear division of labor and clear tasks, especially the problem of logistics, since the outbreak of the war, the Soviet Union has still not changed the problem of logistical chaos.
Inefficient logistics often make it difficult to operate efficiently and make it impossible to put it on the battlefield at any time.
The Red Guard never laughed at any of its opponents, whether the Americans, the Japanese, or the Soviets, their current rivals.
Every soldier of the Red Guard Corps attached great importance to this growth of the Soviets and knew very well that in the face of such an adversary, once they fell into a grip on the situation. During the long war, it was quite unfavorable to the Red Police Corps.
The resilience of the Slavs is remarkable, and the talent to be familiar with the battlefield is also very valuable.
On that day, in the command of the Special Operations Brigade to which the Third Theater belongs, several people looked at a large number of things captured from the battlefield today.
Twenty-six well-maintained sniper rifles, two even German Mauser sniper rifles, and a dozen sniper training manuals bound in-house in the Soviet army.
These sniper rifles are all equipment captured from the battlefield of Boli today, and there are some targets that have been sniped, and due to the distance, they cannot capture the trophies.
According to the report of the sniper team below, there are not many snipers who appear on the battlefield of Boli and are familiar with the use of tired German sniper methods.
This result was also very normal, although Khrushchev came from the front line in Stalingrad, he could not have mobilized too many snipers.
According to the information that has been obtained, the Soviet army is recruiting hunters in Siberia on a large scale, using these hunters with rich hunting and survival experience to form a larger sniper rifle, and building a large number of sniper training camps in Central Siberia, inviting experienced snipers from the front line to teach and impart actual combat experience.
In these sniper training manuals, there are also a lot of experience and summaries, and it is clear that Soviet snipers are not only learning, but also learning, further self-growth.
This is not a good sign, and in the face of the all-out guerrilla war or all-out sniper war that the Soviets are about to put on, the pressure on the Red Guard Corps is really not small.
I'm worried that I won't get it, after all, in the combat sequence of the Red Police Corps, each squad has at least one sniper, and in terms of the number of snipers, the Red Police Corps comprehensively surpasses any army in the world.
But one thing cannot be changed, in the vast Siberian plains, facing all kinds of familiar hunting environments and ubiquitous Soviet snipers, it is a very dangerous thing.
According to estimates, if 10,000 experienced snipers were waiting for an opportunity to attack, the Red Guard Corps would have to pay at least 5,000 casualties, and the upper limit was estimated to be raised to 50,000.
"This matter must be taken seriously, and my suggestion is that to apply for the assistance of the anti-special operations infiltration system, we need a large number of unmanned aerial vehicles, surveillance equipment, sufficient satellite real-time reconnaissance, and the deployment of a friend or foe identification mechanism covering the entire Siberia, and lock the target signal that appears in the field alone or in small groups." A colonel staff officer of the special operations brigade, made a suggestion.
"At present, the Fourth Theater of Operations is in a state of recuperation, and we can also borrow excellent snipers from the Fourth Theater to participate in the hunting of Soviet snipers and minimize the casualties of ordinary troops as much as possible."
"The anti-special operations infiltration system may not be enough, after all, if the movement comes, once the enemy hides in the snow, it will be difficult to detect, my suggestion is that all squads carry life detectors as much as possible, and add large anti-infantry radars to some armored vehicles and assault vehicles."
"All combat units on the front line are required to strictly prevent snipers from sneak attacks, call in armed helicopter support as soon as they encounter snipers, and carry enough smoke bombs to cover evacuation when necessary."
"Then we also need more armed helicopters as a support force, and it is recommended to increase the number of Warrior assault vehicles to ensure that soldiers on combat missions can receive support as much as possible."
Everyone expressed their opinions one after another, and the No. 1 Special Operations Brigade in the command headquarters also nodded immediately and concluded: "Send our request to the theater command." ”
Considering the threat of Soviet snipers here, in fact, all the soldiers in the third theater of operations are very concerned about the increasing number of snipers of the enemy, but they do not pay too much attention to it, because every soldier in the third theater of operations is a master of masters.
Soviet snipers, while threatening, were not so helpless as to make them helpless.
