Although Siberia and the Far East have become two independent countries, they do almost exactly the same thing. In addition to beginning to imitate China's drastic reforms in the economy, another focus is to re-establish a combat-effective military force as soon as possible.
At the end of the Soviet Union, the economy was in serious difficulty. Not only did the army have no money to continue to purchase new equipment, but it could not even pay ordinary soldiers' salaries and allowances. Coupled with officers' dereliction of duty and lax discipline, the Soviet army's combat effectiveness was greatly weakened. Although it is not ruled out that some Soviet troops can still fight, compared with the high level of combat readiness of China and the United States and the ability to enter war at any time, the Soviet army is still far behind.
In Qi Yiming's view, once the Russian civil war really breaks out, he will not be able to send pLAR forces to intervene in the short term. Therefore, the Siberian Army and the Far Eastern Army will still need to resist for a while, which requires the troops of these two countries not to be too aggressive. weak.
In order to digest the territory of Siberia and the Far East controlled in disguise, Qi Yiming took away the sub-base established in the Nanyang Republic and redeployed it in Vladivostok. Nanyang Kingdom itself does not have a strong military industry, and in fact, with its strong military strength and lack of decent enemies around it, there is no need to deploy a base there, whether it is to control the north, or to attack the Siberian Army and the Far East. The army's equipment must be reorganized and inventoried, and bases are indispensable.
For the time being, Qi Yiming cannot replace the troops of the two countries with more advanced and Chinese-style weapons, but they have received a large amount of Soviet-made equipment, including more than 10,000 tanks, ranging from T54456T64, T2 to T8. It is relatively easy for the base tank factory to modify the T55 to 59B, which can quickly improve the combat strength of these older tanks. However, I have not tried to modify the T2. Qi Yiming is not very interested in modifying these things, he just wants to go back and finish the war. Recycle these cheating gadgets and re-create VT-IA or something like that for Siberia and the Far East.
There is no need to change the various equipment made by the Soviet Union too much, because they are all consumables anyway. Even Qi Yiming is not very worried about the casualties of the Siberian Army and the Far East Army. They are all old fools anyway. If it really reaches the point of irreconcilability, he will push the Soviet Union to enter Siberia and fight the Russian army to protect the two countries' certainty of separation from Russia.
The issue of equipment is not what Qi Yiming is most worried about, because the equipment of the Russian army is just like this. There is not much difference between the equipment and the equipment. It mainly depends on organizational ability, technical and tactical level, etc. What Qi Yiming is most worried about is that some soldiers from both countries have excessive mental disorders and do not want to shoot fellow Russians. This is troublesome.
Therefore, in the plan to reorganize the armies of the two countries in Siberia and the Far East, the issue of strengthening the political commissar system and ideological style construction is actually the top priority in all matters.
The ideological education courses for soldiers from both countries are carefully designed. The main contents include recalling the bitter memories of the Soviet Union, recalling the greatness of the Soviet Union, its important role in the proletarian revolution, and the defense of the country during the Patriotic War. and dedication to the fruits of the revolution, and then reviewed the great achievements made by the Soviet Union in economic construction after the war.
These contents are mainly to let the soldiers regain their sense of honor for the symbol of the Soviet Union, and know that the Soviet Union is not completely as miserable as Yeltsin and his followers described it.
"Furthermore, the political commissars who preside over various ideological education courses will begin to criticize the Russian Federation established by Yeltsin.
"With the support of Western conspirators, Yeltsin established a capitalist regime. He denied everything our ancestors believed in and established. Under the false banner of human rights and democracy, he was willing to act as a lackey of the Western world. , emasculating the Soviet Union, desecrating the dignity of the Soviet Union, denying the history of the Soviet Union, and turning the Soviet Union into an unkind and decadent country. He has even disintegrated our motherland and replaced her with something called the Russian Federation. Comrades, you are indeed Russians, but do you have any sense of belonging and identity in such a twisted and ugly country?¡±
"No"
"Yes, our country is the Soviet Union, not Russia. Russia is our enemy."
"Russia is the enemy", the soldiers were incited and angry, and they all said in unison.
The political commissar continued: "Those scum who have lost their longing for the revolution, their respect for the people, and their enthusiasm for socialism have been easily tamed by the West. The so-called liberal intellectuals who don¡¯t understand have never contributed anything to the construction of the Soviet Union, but they want to use ugly things to smear our country and our CP.
Do you know what is happening in Russia now? People still can't buy the necessary commodities. They don't have bread or bacon, but they have been issued a bunch of useless privatization coupons. Those who were shameless high-ranking officials used the state's resources to buy these from people. stuff, and then openly turn tens or even hundreds of millions of self-produced items into?Own. State-owned assets and people's wealth are being lost in large quantities, but people still have no food to eat and live in difficulty
There are also those large foreign conglomerates who took advantage of this opportunity to plunder the assets we have accumulated through hard work and appropriate the technologies developed by our best minds for their own use. Those shameless Russian officials have no sense of patriotism or responsibility. China arbitrarily hands over everything we have to the Westerners in exchange for a little help, but they fail to see that the West only wants to see our country collapse and decline, and is not really helping us."
Just like what the political commissar described, another important aspect in ideological education is to show the soldiers that Russia, which was born from the Soviet Union, is definitely not a happy and promising country. On the contrary, all kinds of ugly things are happening in this country. , and may lead to greater disaster.
Of course, the most distinguishing thing between people should be ideology. Almost people in the ideological and political system of the army have a Russian version of "Qi Jingren's Theory on the Development and Evolution of Socialism" in their hands, and they constantly express their opinions to soldiers and officers at all levels. , Socialism is still an advanced and progressive social system. The Soviet Union had twists and turns in its development process, but this does not mean that it is a dead end. On the contrary, the road of capitalism is the real dead end. Now the wealth and comfort of Western countries, In fact, it is just a return to glory. In a few decades, a greater crisis will destroy them.
Qi Yiming never thinks that "brainwashing therapy" is wrong. People themselves are constantly learning things from the outside world. They can choose to believe or not believe it, but in the end people do not have independent consciousness, and they are all being influenced by it subconsciously. The influence of others. Rather than really not caring about their spiritual world and letting Western things be poured into their heads, it is better to directly pass on your own thoughts to them. Some people can naturally choose not to believe it, but many of Qi Yiming's theories are supported by strict logical arguments and facts. For those who grew up in red countries, they are actually much easier to trust than so-called democracy, freedom and capitalism. .
The effect of this ideological, political and work style construction was obviously outstanding. For a while, even Qi Yiming felt that the morale of the troops in Siberia and the Far East was higher than that of pLAO. This was probably a post-traumatic stress reaction. Some people in the army even proposed that they should conquer the Ural Mountains, liberate all of Russia, humanely destroy the Soviet traitors, and let the red flag fly again on this land.
Qi Yiming doesn¡¯t think there is any problem with such an idea. He only needs people in Siberia and the Far East to have basic hostility towards their compatriots and towards Russia, just like North and South Korea now.
The hostility is definitely not just one-sided. Russia is also preparing for a war in chaos. It is obvious that Yeltsin is not willing to lose more than 10 million square kilometers of vast territory. With these 10 million square kilometers, Russia has The potential to become a superpower, but without these 10 million square kilometers, Russia is still a big country, but it will no longer have the opportunity to seek world leadership.
To regard Siberia and the Far East as the remnants of the evil Soviet Communist Party and as terrorists who split the country has become a mainstream propaganda in Russia. People who do not know the truth, especially the people who do not know the truth, constantly call on Yeltsin to use thunderous means to separat the country. Get rid of these two blind separatist forces.
In contrast, the military is more hesitant about this, because the military knows its own affairs. With Russia's current strength, it can only launch a war against Siberia and the Far East unless it mobilizes the power of the whole country. It is impossible to fight on a small scale. threaten the security of both countries. What we are talking about here is not something that can be solved by one or two divisions or a group army, but a battle between dozens of group armies and hundreds of thousands or millions of troops. If you are not careful, it will be a world war. Even after recruiting armed forces from various union republics, the Russian army still does not have full confidence that it can completely defeat Siberia and the Far Eastern Republic. What's more, these two separatist countries have also mastered the excessive nuclear weapons left by the Soviet Union. If they launch a nuclear offensive at the end of the road, Russia will basically be finished.
Yeltsin was also well aware of this, so he adopted a safer method. KGH was reused by him. A large number of agents were sent to Siberia, some pretending to be members of the Soviet Communist Party who had surrendered to them, and some pretending to be refugees. , their main mission is to incite chaos in Siberia and the Far East, and to instigate important figures in the government and army to oppose Yankov and Novozlov.
With this low-cost method, if the goal can be achieved, it can be regarded as the most cost-effective.
