On September 1 1, Commander-in-Chief of the Ukrainian Armed Forces Zaluzhny announced that Ukraine had regained control of more than 3,000 square kilometers of land since the beginning of September. In the direction of Kharkov, the Ukrainian armed forces are advancing south, east and north. Ukrainian President Zelensky also posted a video on the official account 1 1, saying that Ukrainian armed forces controlled Chekalov Sk in Kharkov State.
The Ukrainian armed forces successfully repelled the Russian army by 70~ 100 km in just one week. Whether it's Barakleia, Kupyansk, Hikoum or Volchak, the Russian army can't hold on for a day. Some experts believe that Ukraine has caused the biggest military defeat to the Russian army since the end of World War II.
No matter what the final situation is, the terrible war these days has revealed that the Russian army's ability in some aspects is really poor, such as strategic reconnaissance ability and battlefield monitoring ability, which are all in a mess.
Ukrainian diversion tactics, Hellson bluffing, transferred a large number of Russian troops to the downtown. Then so many troops were assembled on the Eastern Front, and a large number of heavily armed troops were assembled at the front of Kharkov and Hikoum. The Russian army didn't realize it and was caught off guard. This is a typical manifestation of low military capability.
The good news is that Russia's most elite synthetic unit of the 20th Army has been successfully transferred from Hikoum to the new "assembly area" in Donetsk.
The 20th Russian Army lost Hikoum in one day, and the whole army retreated, leaving a lot of weapons and equipment along the way. In addition to being good at military parade, the group army also fought bravely in the front line of Ukraine, which was extremely mobile. Twice in half a year, the group army headquarters was terminated once, which is the record holder of the biggest defeat of the Russian army since its founding.
Army headquarters, 1 1 Battalion Tactical Cluster (BTG) under the 3rd Motorized Infantry Division of Vistula River, and 144 Motorized Infantry Division of Yelinia, the guards, as well as various support forces, resolutely abandoned crocks, threw away hundreds of tanks, infantry fighting vehicles and self-propelled artillery, and tore Iraq apart against time.
Due to the heroic detachment and desperate resistance of Chechen troops, the parade leader of the 20 th Army was unscathed, and no senior commander was captured. After the "regrouping" of the 20 th Russian Army, the current defense line is impregnable, and the advantage lies in us, and the Russian army will win.
In view of the great defeat of the Russian army, Chechen troops were used as cannon fodder by the Russian regular army, and Chechen President Kadyrov Jr. was very angry and furious. Cam said: "Russian troops will retreat from Balalaia, Hikoum and Kupyansk, and even the whole of Udong!"
Cam said: "The Russian army now needs to adjust its operational principles and strategies, stop pretending that everything is going according to the established plan, and the Russian army should learn from its failure." Cam even said that if the Russian army does not change and continues to conceal its military mistakes, he will personally ask the Supreme Commander for an explanation to reflect the real situation on the battlefield.
One of the reasons why Kamm was very angry was that there was something wrong with the command and coordination of the Russian army during the flight. The Russian regular army ran away without saying hello (for example, the 20 th Army), leaving Chechen troops as cannon fodder, which caused great losses to Tik Tok soldiers.
Now CCTV reports also admit that the Ukrainian army's counterattack has achieved great results, but CCTV politely did not say that the Russian army was defeated. The Russian word "reorganization" was used.
Last night, CCTV's "Today's Concern" program talked in detail about "Ukrainian troops counterattacked several cities, and Russia retreated to Donbass?" 》
Wu Dahui and Li Li had a wonderful talk, which may be one of the most wonderful interviews about the war situation since Russia and Ukraine.
Wu Dahui thinks:
1, the Ukrainian counterattack was very sharp, and the Russian army was caught off guard. The Ukrainian army in this counterattack has strong field capabilities, with several brigades trained by NATO as the core and strong attack capabilities.
2. The Russian army has actually given up Kharkov. It can be seen from the background of the big screen published by the Russian Ministry of Defense that the Russian army obviously no longer regards Kharkov as a war zone. Most of the troops here have been completely evacuated.
3. There is a problem with the overall command and coordination of the Russian army. The Donbass militia and Chechen armed forces suffered heavy losses, and little Kadyrov was furious. The Russian regular army retreated without saying hello, which led to the passivity of Chechen troops. If there is no statement, Kadyrov will petition to protest.
As a matter of fact, the Russian army has no power to launch defensive counterattacks in Kharkov, Hikoum and other places, and the so-called "Ukrainian army" is untenable. Russian troops may think that Hikoum and other places are chicken ribs, so it is better to strengthen the defense of Donbass.
Li Li thinks:
1, Russian troops were actually forced to evacuate, but they also had the opportunity to fight back, but the battlefield was complex and anything could happen.
2. In three days, the Ukrainian army recovered 1000 square kilometers every day, which was too fast. It is very likely that the Russian army will kill a "comeback". The farther the Ukrainian army attacks, the greater the resistance it encounters. Therefore, the current situation is deadlocked and no conclusion can be drawn.
It is possible for Russian troops to make progress if they take a step back, but the battlefield is very complicated and anything can happen.
Finally, two CCTV experts said that "Russia withdrew from Donbass to retreat", which means that Russia can shrink its front and focus on defense or attack. It does not support the statement that "the Russian army deliberately used a drag bottle to put the Ukrainian army in and fight, and then covered it." CCTV is very polite, trying to avoid talking about the defeat of the Russian army and saving face for Russia.
The Russian army has abandoned the entire Kharkov war zone, and the commander of the Western Military Region Group has been dismissed. At present, the Ukrainian army has entered the northernmost part of Kharkov, only one or two kilometers away from the Russian border.
It can also be seen from the big screen background of the war report issued by the Russian Ministry of Defence that the Russian army has obviously stopped using Kharkov as a war zone and abandoned most of Kharkov (Kupyansk-Borova-Oskar line) west of the Oskar River. All Russian troops here have been evacuated.
The General Intelligence Department of the Ministry of National Defense of Ukraine announced that Lieutenant General Roman Berdnikov, commander of the Western Military Region Group of the Russian Army in the Ukrainian theater, was dismissed from his post (just took office 17 days) and was replaced by General Alexander Lapin, commander of the Central Military Region.
After the Russian army lost Hikoum, the whole west side was completely exposed, and the flank was completely exposed, so there was no defense at all. Their rear is full of Ukrainian troops, and staying at the front is waiting for death, so the Russian army has collapsed. Due to the emptiness of the Russian army, the huge gap on the west side could not be stopped. A large number of Ukrainian main forces directly broke through the Russian defense line, and the hinterland of the occupied area and the hinterland of the rear were completely unprepared, and the Russian army at the front line was bound to be annihilated.
Alexei Reznikov, the Ukrainian defense minister, admitted that this was a bit unexpected, and thought that the big counterattack launched by the Ukrainian army in the direction of Kharkov was far better than expected. However, Uzbekistan is still very cautious: the most important task now is to ensure that it can continue to control the liberated territory, especially to be highly alert to the Russian counterattack.
Russia and Ukraine can finally 1: 1 exchange prisoners. In this Ukrainian counter-offensive, a large number of Russian troops and Donbass militia were captured, which may exceed the captured Ukrainian army in upor, Mali. According to the Ukrainian army, there are so many captured Russian troops that there are not enough "straps" to tie their hands.
Now, Russia and Ukraine can finally happily exchange prisoners with 1: 1
