After Russia issued a partial mobilization order, the recruits were summoned immediately. What has caused a lot of controversy in the outside world is that the Russian army's actions were very fast this time, and there were even reports that the Russian army has been working tirelessly to the reserve force in advance to the Ukrainian battlefield. It has only been a week since Putin issued a mobilization order, which shows how "can't wait" the Russian army is.
At present, the most concern between Russia and Ukraine is the referendum held in four eastern Ukraine regions. Judging from the public news from Russia, these four states all demanded a referendum to Russia with overwhelming support rates. Under such circumstances, Ukraine must have felt a huge threat and pressure. Ukraine can only continue to expand its counterattack and strive for more victory to gain support from the West, so that it can have the ability to wrestle with Russia. In order to avoid the Ukrainian army's great victory in Kharkiv, it is urgent to solve the problem of military source. When the news spread that the Russian army urgently mobilized the reserve troops to the front line, the US media took the lead in criticizing it. Some American media believed that in a week, the preparations of these reserve troops in Russia were very hasty and did not receive all-round military training and went to the battlefield to act as cannon fodder to die.
According to the information disclosed to the outside world by US Department of Defense spokesman Ryder, the two north and south fronts of the Russian army in Ukraine have been compressed by the Ukrainian army, and the Russian army as a whole can only be forced to defend. On the other hand, after a brief rest, the Ukrainian army has implemented a comprehensive counterattack plan along Khlsong to Kharkov. The Russian army has not yet given up on the Donbas area, but according to the news obtained by the United States, the Russian army is just "trying to re-occupy here", but has entered a tug-of-war with the Ukrainian army, and both sides have no absolute advantage in Donbas.
According to some information, the Russian army should have encountered unprecedented challenges since entering Ukraine. The Russian army relied on its early weapons and equipment advantages to win many fortresses in Ukraine, but when the Ukrainian army received external assistance, it has now begun a large counterattack. The Russian army has long been short of troops when fighting throughout Ukraine. With Ukraine fully mobilizing and summoning troops, the Russian army often needs to face the Ukrainian army several times its own. In this case, the Russian army's retreat in Kharkov was also expected.
If the Russian army wants to gather in Ukraine again, a large number of new forces must come to reinforce. According to the US "war theater" website, the Russian army is also besieged by the Ukrainian army. At the same time, the Ukrainian army also took over Kupiansk, one of the largest railway hubs in the country. These are all very unfavorable to the Russian army.
At the beginning, the Russian army spent a lot of energy to capture these areas, and lost in just a few days during this period. Kharkov Prefecture has greatly affected the morale of the Russian army. Now, the Ukrainian army is "under the city" in major fortresses. In addition to urgently putting the reserves into the battlefield, the Russian army really cannot find a second choice in a short time.
Russia can recruit a large number of new recruits to the front line in a short period of time, which shows that its reserve mobilization ability is very strong. However, in order to gain combat effectiveness, these new recruits must be fully armed in addition to necessary military training. However, judging from some information circulating on the Internet, this group of Russian recruits will encounter huge challenges.
According to a Russian new conscript, the materials and equipment they obtained were not comprehensive, some lacked medical items, and some lacked protective equipment. The fastest way to solve this problem is to buy it yourself. Some soldiers only received very backward rifles, and did not even have decent military uniforms. After going to the battlefield, the Russian army's logistics problems were infinitely amplified, and some soldiers could not even guarantee food and water.
In fact, these problems are not only encountered by this group of new recruits. The Russian-Ukraine war has been exposed countless times for the six-year-long Russian-Ukraine war. The Russian army could not guarantee the maintenance of the tank equipment after it was damaged, and in the end it could only abandon it on both sides of the highway and became the trophy of the Ukrainian army.
There is information that shows that the Russian military's logistics problems can be traced back to military reforms many years ago. At that time, in order to highlight the combat effectiveness of battalion-level combat units, the Russian army greatly increased the proportion of combat personnel, while the personnel responsible for logistics were compressed and reduced, and vehicles belonging to logistics units were also reduced accordingly.
After the Russian war started this time, the Russian army fought smoothly in the early stage, and logistics problems did not appear. Now the war has entered a tug-of-war, and the Ukrainian army occasionally attacks the Russian logistics convoy, causing a huge blow to the already weak logistics of the Russian army. It can be imagined that even if a large number of new Russian soldiers poured into the battlefield, but lacking food and weapons, their combat effectiveness would be a big question mark.
Some American military experts believe that Russia puts so many people who have not undergone strict military training on the battlefield, which is tantamount to letting them go to the battlefield as cannon fodder, which will only increase the number of casualties of the Russian army.
But this is also the case that it further proves the cruelty of the war and proves that Russia has no way out in the face of the NATO threat. Even if it knows that there will be huge sacrifices, it cannot allow the "special military operation" to end in failure. Once Russia is defeated this time, its core national interests will only be wantonly infringed by the West.
