The four-year-old Unicom large-scale power grid project has been successfully completed, and the outposts on the north shore of Pangong Lake in Blizzard are always brightly lit. In the past, areas with poor environment such as Pangong Lake did not have a stable power supply. If you want to use electricity, you can only use diesel generators. However, when the mountains are covered by heavy snow, it is difficult to supply them and diesel is very precious. But now the camp at Bangong Lake is integrated into the large power grid, and power supply throughout the day is guaranteed. The officers and soldiers were able to use electricity for heating, boiling water for cooking, bathing, etc., and their living conditions were greatly improved. With stable electricity, the oxygen generator can work for a long time, and officers and soldiers can inhale oxygen when experiencing altitude sickness. The logistical support conditions have improved, and officers and soldiers can have more energy to train and prepare.
The Indian army’s position was black and fired and could only rely on ground nests for heating. The terrible logistics caused the Leh City Field Hospital with only 300 beds to be overcrowded. India blindly deployed a large number of soldiers to the front line, but the logistics could not keep up, leaving the Indian soldiers on the front line exposed to the wind and snow. Because there is no sturdy warm barracks, the Indian frontline soldiers live in tents, and under the tents are nests. Because of poor air circulation, Indians dare not even live in it, and they do not have enough fuel. However, frostbite soldiers continue to appear, and the 300 beds in the field hospital in Leh simply cannot meet the needs. Indian media reported that because of the limited number of beds and severe frostbite of some soldiers, they were sent to the rear hospital for treatment. Z1z
Lieutenant General Menon, the commander of the Indian 14th Army, has reminded Modi several times that this battle is simply impossible to fight based on the current huge logistical gap. Lieutenant General Menon studied the great eastern countries all year round and believed that India and the country would inevitably have a long-term conflict. He is a hardliner against China. In October, he took over from Singh as the supreme commander of the region. New Delhi originally hoped that he could improve the disadvantaged situation in India after he arrived in the region. However, after seeing the strength of the two sides, Menon had to say that the current situation simply cannot match Confrontation between neighboring countries. Menon made this judgment based on India's backward logistics support capabilities. The modern army relies heavily on logistics, and the logistics situation of the Indian army is very poor.
In recent years, my country has speeded up the improvement of the infrastructure construction of border defense forces. The conditions of water and electricity supply, and guarantee of the supply of vegetables and fruits have basically been met. The living conditions of border officers and soldiers have been improved, and their combat effectiveness has been more assured. There is a clear gap in India in this regard. India’s production capacity is too backward to even meet the needs of frontline soldiers for cold-proof clothing. Not to mention the sturdy barracks and convenient living facilities. India has always wanted to compete with the great powers of the East and wants to compare in many ways. But by comparison, India has a big gap in both its main military equipment and the military's logistical support capabilities.
