Surovijin is known as the "Doom General" online, and it is said that this person "resolutely supports large-scale missile attacks on infrastructure, including civilian facilities, like a Doom General without any feelings." There is another saying that Surovikin is called the "Doom General" because of his ability to make difficult and unconventional decisions.
This person happened to have just taken office and caught up with the attack on the Crimea Bridge. From October 10th to the present, the Russian army has continued to launch a large-scale strategic strike on the entire Ukraine, which is very consistent with Surovikin's style.
Surovigin once said: For the enemies of Russia, morning does not start with coffee. With the Russian army's daily "Iranian motorcycle" bombing, this coffee joke continues to appear online.
It is worth noting that before Surovikin, there was also news that the Russian army appointed commander-in-chief on the Ukrainian battlefield. For example, in early April, the Russian army appointed General Dvonikov as commander-in-chief.
However, most of the sources of these news are from Western media, and there seems to be no official confirmation from Russia (if any, I hope to remind you to correct it). Therefore, Surovikin was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the joint force, which should be the first time that the Russian army appointed the commander to take charge of the overall situation on the Ukrainian battlefield.
Before this, the army troops and naval and air force of the major military regions of the Russian army were basically fighting each other. After the troop system in the military region system was changed, the command relationship was quite unsmooth. At the same time, the coexistence of multiple forces within the Russian army, and cooperation with the Donbasian armed forces became even more problematic. This forced some Russian military officers to operate at the forefront of the war zone and often suffered casualties.
For example, Kutuzov Major General who died in early June was in command of the 1st Army of Donetsk. This man was shot and killed in a frontier village west of Lisichangsk.
Therefore, the Russian army has great problems at the command level and joint combat, which also seriously restricts the Russian army's combat effectiveness.
In this process, the General Staff should have shouldered the important task of coordination, but the General Staff, far away from the battlefield, must be both internal and external. Obviously, the coordination work in the direction of Ukraine's combat is not satisfactory, and it is also called by some Russian personnel who know the inside story as not understanding the actual battlefield situation.
Therefore, after the passive situation in the direction of Kharkov and bonus man , Kadyrov of Chechnya publicly bombarded the Russian General Staff and the leveling general of the Central Military Region. In fact, the Western Military Region troops were responsible for the war in this direction, and the Luhansk Reserve Armed Forces, Russian Volunteer Forces, and National Guards were placed at the forefront, which shows that it was indeed quite chaotic.
Of course, generally speaking, internal contradictions are not publicized to this extent. It seems reasonable to simply blame Kadrov's recklessness on the surface, but in fact it is not.
A local powerful person like Kadyrov may not be a rough person on the surface. Such characters are often rough and detailed. His speeches seem quite outrageous, but in fact they may not have no relevant channels and background.
In fact, a few days after these remarks, Kadyrov was promoted to the rank of general; a few days later, Surovikin was appointed commander-in-chief of the United Forces of Ukraine.
. Xiao Kadyrov was very happy about Surovikin's appointment and said that he had known him for 15 years. Surovikin is a real general and warrior, an experienced, strong will and visionary commander. His concepts of patriotism, honor and dignity are always above everything else.
These words simply praised Surovijin as a waste. So where did such a doomsday general come from?
Sergei Vladimirovic Surovikin, born in Novosibirsk in 1966. After graduating from the military academy in 1987, Surovikin served as platoon leader and company commander in the Taman Division. In 1991, had served as battalion commander when the Soviet Union collapsed . He was arrested and detained for seven months because he led the team to deal with the situation at that time. After
, because Surovigin was executing the order of his superiors, his charges were revoked, and Russian President Yeltsin personally ordered the release and promoted to major.
In 1995, during his further study at Fulongzhi Military Academy, Surovijin was accused of reselling arms and sentenced to one year in prison. However, in the investigation, it was later believed that Surovijin was framed and that " crime constitutes insufficient behavior", so the crime was revoked again.
After graduating from Fulongzhi Military Academy, Surovikin was sent to Tajikistan to serve as the battalion commander of the Mofang Battalion stationed in the local Russian army. He then served as a regiment and division-level officer and entered the Military Academy of the General Staff Department for further studies.
By 2002, Surovijin had served as the commander of the 34th Division of the Mobu, and was later transferred to the commander of the 42nd Division of the Mobu in Chechnya.
In 2005, Surovijin served as chief of staff and commander in the 20th Army, and was transferred to the Director of the General Staff General Administration of Operations of the General Staff after 2008.
From 2010 to 2012, Surovikin served as Chief of Staff and First Deputy Commander of the Ural Military Region, Chief of Staff and First Deputy Commander of the Central Military Region, Chief of Staff and First Deputy Commander of the Eastern Military Region. During this period, he was also responsible for the establishment of the Military Police Organization of the Russian Federation Armed Forces and took the lead in establishing the General Administration of the Military Police of the Ministry of National Defense.
In October 2013, Surovijin was promoted to commander of the Eastern Military Region.
In March 2017, Surovikin served as the commander-in-chief of the Russian Army in Syria. During his tenure, the Syrian army achieved great results with the support of the Russian army.
, Surovijin was later transferred across the military and was appointed commander-in-chief of the Russian Aerospace Army. In 2021, Surovijin was promoted to the rank of general.
After the beginning of this Russian-Ukrainian war, Surovijin led the troops of the southern military region to fight, and the Russian army in the southern military region was the most contributor to this war. Most of the results retained by the Russian army are the combat gains of the southern military region.
In the battle of Donbas , the southern military region troops also made great achievements. Surovijin personally led his troops to participate in the famous Battle of Beidon.
Judging from Suluo Weijin's resume, he has taken steps from the grassroots level. He has basically held various positions, and has also been through major military regions. He also has rich experience in actually commanding troops to participate in the war. In terms of personal experience, it is also rich, and there are many controversial parts.
In particular, this bald general also served as the commander-in-chief of the Aerospace Army as an army leader, which is a rare joint combat command talent that the Russian army intends to cultivate.
Judging from Surovijin's personal style, he has a decisive style. He cares about his soldiers very much, and he is the kind of jealousy of the enemy. It is said that during the battle in Chechnya, it was said that every time a Russian soldier died, three terrorists would be killed.
So Surovikin served as the commander-in-chief of the Russian special military operations, and there is actually nothing to say about qualifications. But the specific results in combat are only started, and it is difficult to judge.
