Military officials and analysts of Western countries said that after General Surovikin was appointed commander-in-chief of the Ukrainian special military operations, Russian soldiers showed greater tactical coordination characteristics. A senior British intelligence official said Surovigin's tactics proved his efficiency in Syria , showing high efficiency and toughness.
Surovikin had achieved great success in the Syrian battlefield. Before becoming the commander-in-chief of the special military operations,Surovikin was responsible for the operations of the Russian Southern Group.
Before Surovigin took office as commander-in-chief, one of the main problems faced by the Russian army was poor coordination, and the navy, army and air forces were not in good cooperation, and it could even be said to be out of touch. The Russian army has no advantage in terms of number of personnel, and if they do not cooperate well, they will only be more passive. This is true. Although the Russian army has achieved a series of results, it has also experienced many failures and even had two large-scale withdrawals. Although Russia has repeatedly emphasized that withdrawal is to adjust its tactical strategy, it still affects the morale of Russian soldiers.
After Surovikin took office, the Russian army's appearance was completely renewed, and the West soon discovered something was wrong and keenly noticed the problem. But recognizing the problem does not mean that the West can deal with it. On the Ukrainian side, the Ukrainian army is still the main combat power, and there are also some so-called mercenary from Western countries. The biggest problem with these people is their poor coordination.
The command level of the Ukrainian army is already very average, and the Ukrainian soldiers are hard to describe. Ukraine has carried out many mobilizations, and each time it mobilized, the source of troops was worse than the previous one, because young and middle-aged people were recruited earlier. The further they went on, the worse the personnel quality and the coordination was impossible to talk about.
Although the Russian army was awkward and suffered some defeats, the army was still stronger than the Ukrainian army in terms of style. When the number of people was not too disadvantageous, it would be difficult for the armed group composed of Ukrainian army and mercenaries to break through Russia's defense line in the Khelson area.
And Khlsson's battle is related to the trend of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. Whoever can achieve a reality-based victory can gain greater initiative later. This is also the main reason why Russia changed its coach in the last battle after the referendum of the four places.
On the one hand, NATO and Ukraine will inevitably launch further provocations; on the other hand, Russia cannot experience any major failures in several areas of the referendum. Therefore, a capable and cruel person must be replaced to command the battle.
And Surovijin is such a person. He has experienced the Second Chechen War in and commanded the 42nd Division with the richest combat experience. The victory in Syria has brought Surovijin the title of "Doom General".
And Surovikin is the most special thing, as the general of the army, he was appointed commander-in-chief of the Russian Aerospace Army. This is also the main reason why Surovikin can significantly improve the coordination of the Russian army after taking over the special military operation.
In addition, Surovikin is also good at making difficult and unconventional decisions. When solving the problem of the Donetsk Steel Plant, Surovigin's command not only repelled the Ukrainian army but also surrounded the Ukrainian army.
After that, Ukraine organized a large-scale counterattack, and the Khlsong region was under tremendous pressure. Surovijin, who was still in command of the Southern Group at that time, successfully withstood the Ukrainian army's counterattack.
Now Khlsson has become the focus again, and Surovikin, who has been commanding the war in Khlsson area, has obtained the commander-in-chief and can be fully mobilized, giving him more room to display.
From this arrangement, we can also see that Russia's focus has always been on Khlsong. From taking Khlsong at the beginning of the war to withstanding the large-scale counterattack of the Ukrainian army, to the imminent war after the referendum, Surovikin is a witness. Now, all the Russian troops on the front line are handed over to Surovikin to command, which is also to allow those who are most familiar with Khlsong's situation to have greater command power and ensure that the Khlsong region is foolproof.
