Preliminary
On October 26, the ammunition list of the Kupyansk defenders showed that there were only 12 rifle rounds left per capita.
The wounded Ukrainians on the front line washed their wounds with river water, while Zelensky on the back shouted in the video, “Insist on destroying the occupier!”
The battlefield is a real hanging machine, but the back is fighting? who is paying the real cost of this war?
How does meat grinder efficiently "clean" the battlefield
It's almost dawn, and the sky in Kupyansk is still red!
Cannonballs fell down like free money, and the Russians surrounded the place like an iron barrel. The more than 5000 Ukraine brothers in the city are like wolves locked in cages, their eyes green from hunger!
Ammunition is gone, food is gone, and no one is coming to the rescue.
Waiting for death, the only way to live is to escape.
But everyone knows that running out from a position and going head-on to others on the flat ground is not just giving up their heads?
At more than two o’clock in the morning, the first wave of the daring death squad got out, 200 good men, had a hand grenade with a few boxes of bullets!
The task is to blast a hole with one's life so that the large troops can run.
But the drone in the sky had long been staring, the Russian cannon with long eyes, shattering the head and covering the face and knocking down! the cannon exploded, the fire shone in the sky, that scene was almost like the hell.
A kind of thing called thermocompression bomb is even more ruthless. It explodes in a large area, even burning the air, and the person is directly gone!
The first wave of people just disappeared, and it took only ten minutes before and after. Someone asked, isn't this obviously sending death? Why do you have to rush again and again?
If you don't rush, you'll be starving to death. You can't even hear a sound. If you rush, even if there is only a trace of hope, you have to try!
This is the game in the extreme, the bet won, can survive a bunch of people; the bet lost, is also worth this military costume!
Who is paying for this "cleanup"?
The Russian military fought a wide range of street battles, from the Battle of Stalingrad, the Battle of Grozny, the Battle of Aleppo, to the Battle of the Bahem Group.
The Russian army has a whole set of tactics for fighting urban street infantry, basically, strong fire force to suppress the attack group!
Urban street battles are difficult to synergize effectively, and the Russian army's city street battles-group tactics are to concentrate different types of troops into a small, multifunctional tactical unit.
Independent combat in complex urban street warfare, commander, deputy commander part-time communications, artillery forward scout.
The reconnaissance special forces also serve as snipers and drone operators, responsible for searching for enemy intelligence and calibrating enemy fire points.
Planning the route of action for the small divisions of the Russian army, assaulting infantry groups, as well as important locker-fighting workers' groups, responsible for removing road barriers and explosives, using explosives, rocket breakers, etc. to blow up walls, and to open passages for the infantry.
Once you occupy houses and important street corners, you immediately construct defensive facilities and guard support points. This is a complete set of tasks, including reconnaissance, strike, demolition, clearing, and guarding support points.
They are not soldiers, they are more like a sophisticated, moving killing instrument!
The first step is to run out of food. The Russian Western Army has surrounded Kupyansk, and the assault detachment of the 68th Motorized Infantry Division affiliated to the Russian 6th Army has carried out flanking maneuvers.
Captured the Oskil River ferry in the south of Kupyansk, the 47th Tank Division and the 27th Motorized Infantry Brigade belonging to the 1st Russian Guards Tank Army!
Ukrainian troops were blocked on the east bank (left bank) of the Oskil River east of Kupyansk.
The second step, the lock-in, the Russian BM-21 ice-cutting multi-tube rocket cannon, the BM-27 hurricane heavy rocket cannon, the TOS-2 heat-pressure rocket cannon, and the optical fiber drone intensive strike interception.
The Russian military has accelerated the pace of the attack over the past few days, and it has been multi-headed.
From seizing 70 percent of Wolchansk, the Kupiyansk Siege was tightening the Redman, and Seversk was stepping his pocket.
How to protect humanity in the process?
In the final analysis, the Ukrainian army was defeated because it really lost "no lives, no bombs, no food." The assistance promised by the outside was gone if it was said to be gone.
In the second half of this year, more than half less than in the first half, especially artillery, and even less poor.
The direct speed in the West is slower than sending letters. One detail is shocking. The Russian army directly shipped a vehicle full of thermobaric bombs to the front line.
The entire train of vacuum bombs ODAB-1500 was shipped, and the next stage was all "clearance explosion". The 47th Brigade and "Ada" special force in front of the Ukrainian army were not bad. They had anti-tank/air defense such as javelin and stinger.
As a result, without ammunition, it becomes "high-grade scrap metal", which is actually a tacit "loan break".
Precisely at the time when Ukraine needed the “cash flow” most, and even more deadly, there was a cruel truth behind it: Ukraine blocked Russia with its own body.
At the same time, it also tied up the chain of blood transfusion between the United States and Europe. The front line really couldn't be defeated, and the rear line was still tightening the brown candy.
When Pavle washed his wounds with river water in the battlefield, he probably did not know that his survival depended on a thousand miles away financial negotiation, and his life had long been quantified as a balance sheet.
Russian President Vladimir Putin showed the "Haiyan" nuclear-powered cruise missile directly on the site of the military factory, and stressed that the range is unlimited and cannot be intercepted.
To intimidate the United States, to put pressure on the U.S. military, and to uphold the morality of the Russian front.
It is not difficult to understand why such a striking breakdown occurs.
This is a "geopolitical transaction" involving Russia, Ukraine, the United States, and Europe at the expense of the lives of Ukrainian soldiers.
Naively speaking, it is a battle between the two countries, in essence, Ukraine has blocked Russia with its own body, and at the same time has tied the chain of U.S. and European blood transfusions.
Dignity that machines cannot encode
In the face of an increasingly powerful “hanging meat machine”, what should we do?
First of all, at the personal level, we must adhere to the "unprogrammed" human dignity. When the charge is no longer about victory, but just to prove that "I have been here", this may be the last dignity in the era of "meat grinder".
At the organizational level, it is necessary to develop the "decentralized" survival resilience, and in the face of absolute technological surplus, any resistance is in vain.
The only vitality lies in developing "gray area" tactics that cannot be completely suppressed by technology, and adjusting the war goals from "victory" to "survival" and "consumption".
The Ukrainian military’s recent attempt on the “ghost drone” tactic of using low-cost, no-GPS drones for “suicidal” cluster attacks is the germ of this asymmetric response.
Finally, at the level of civilization, we need to rebuild a consensus on the values of “fearing life.”
The dehumanization of war is not about to happen, but is already done.
Soldiers are turning from “decision makers” to “executors” and eventually “sensors.”
Humanitarian organizations warn that this model will lead to the addition of a new group of "permanent psychological trauma" among "war refugees".
Because the sense of powerlessness the individual bears in an irresistible system will cause the deepest psychological injury.
Future wars will become more procedural, but human value lies precisely in the parts that cannot be programmed: emotions, will and choices!
conclusion
When the charge is no longer for victory, but just to prove "I've been here", this may be the last dignity in the era of "meat grinder".
In the future, wars will become more programmed, but the value of human beings lies precisely in the parts that cannot be programmed: emotion, will and choice.
Faced with the increasingly powerful "meat grinder", do we choose to become a standard "screw" or protect that perhaps futile but extremely precious humanity?
