Soviet Union 1991

The third update

When the T72 tanks ran rampant through the streets of Tbilisi, the rebels felt helpless. ≦＝＝≦The assault team composed of eight T72 tanks, six BMP3 infantry fighting vehicles and two Tunguska air defense systems can already make the defenders of Tbilisi helpless.

Once any firepower strongholds that try to delay the assault team's offensive are found, the reconnaissance motorized infantry company in front will begin to guide the tank troops to attack. First, the Tunguska air defense system and vehicle-mounted aircraft began to frantically sweep the top of the building guarded by the enemy. A series of bursting machine guns hit the building and splashed dust, reflecting a spectacular scene. Then the BMP infantry fighting vehicle 100mm artillery and 30mm machine gun fired continuously at the mid-rise building, suppressing the opponent from raising their heads. Finally, eight T72 tanks bombarded the bottom of the building. In the dust and ruins, the combat infantry cleared the building layer by layer.

Under the powerful artillery coverage of the Soviet army, the Georgian army had almost no ability to fight back. Not only that, the ground combat forces maintained communication with the Soviet bombers and armed helicopters that had been hovering over Tbilisi through portable digital communication equipment, and transmitted data intelligence to the bombers and armed helicopters. At the same time as the air strike, the image of the combat loss assessment of the established strike target can be obtained in real time, which provides the basis for the command to carry out another air strike.

There are also GRU special forces ambushed near the planned bombing targets in advance, using laser illuminators to guide the Su-34 to use precision guidance and the Z-2S35 self-propelled artillery to use guided artillery shells to carry out precise strikes on the targets, and determine the strike effect. The new combat method replaced the old carpet bombing and improved the combat level of the Soviet army.

This is an unequal war. The highly informationized Soviet combat forces are almost still in the combat communication methods of the Georgian rebels during the Cold War. The difference is obvious.

The sky over Tbilisi was full of Soviet bombers, attack aircraft, electronic warfare aircraft and armed helicopters. Although the Tbilisi army deployed some air defense, the impact on the overall situation was too weak. Soviet fighters could easily deceive these old-fashioned ones with heat-induced bombs, and then launch an air-to-ground attack in the direction of the launch. After that, there was no sound.

The Georgian army tried its best but could not stop the advance of the Soviet army, so they needed to shrink the front line constantly to ensure that they could delay the Soviet army's advance.

No one could stop the advance of the Soviet army. Georgia was just a mayfly trying to shake the tree in front of the Soviet army.

When they finally realized the meaning of this sentence, it was too late.

The steel torrent almost submerged most of Tbilisi, and the Georgian rebels went to extinction step by step.

This time, the 58th Army handed in a satisfactory answer to the Soviet Union, and at the same time, it also slapped the few other people in the army who were still resistant to information warfare. Marshal Olgakov was very satisfied with the reform results of the Soviet Army. The framework of the Soviet Army building had been built. What he had to do next was to improve the details. Not only the Soviet Union's fist troops, but all troops were included in the information framework.

William Perry, the US Secretary of Defense, had learned Marshal Ogarkov's military thinking from him. Now Marshal Ogarkov has perfected his information revolution reform from the Americans. Of course, the top political bureau officials will not forget Ogarkov's previous excessive demands: the Soviet State Planning Commission obeyed the General Staff, and even the Council of Ministers and even the National People's Congress were carried out according to the command of the Soviet General Staff. This is completely a continuation of Erich von Ludendorff's total war.

So Ogarkov's career ended with the completion of the reform, and Yanayev would not let Ogarkov get involved in more power.

The war continued to advance, and with the compression of the fronts on all fronts, the Georgian army had come to an end. The Soviet Union's 58th Army was fighting with an overwhelming advantage, suppressing the opponent without any ability to fight back.

This time, Gerbachev could even see the Soviet armed helicopters strafing the ground troops with 30mm machine guns outside the window. The shadow of failure loomed over the rebel leader, and he had a premonition that his end was coming. Failure became his inevitable end.

Minashvili stood in front of Gerbachev and said worriedly, "I have arranged for the reconnaissance troops to detect the weak parts of the Soviet encirclement, and then use the remaining troops in my hands to tear a gap. At that time, a team will escort you out of the Caucasus. Now the Georgian army is shrinking the front as much as possible to prepare for the final battle."

The subtext is that the Georgian rebels have tried their best, and all Minashvili can do is to delay the failure for a minute and a half.

Plekhanov stood aside without saying a word. This was completely different from the outcome he expected. Now he has been trapped in Tbilisi. It is harder than climbing to the sky to get out alive from here.

"Is there no chance of counterattack?" Plekhanov asked anxiously. Although he had begun to regret participating in this political turmoil, the current situation did not allow him to get out of it.

Minashvili said disdainfully, "Do you want me to give you the command of the army and you can try it?"

Plekhanov immediately shut up. Now the command of the army was in the hands of Minashvili. If the other party was unhappy, he could attack him at any time. Anyway, they were about to face failure.

Gerbachev sighed and said, "What if we don't find a breakthrough?"

Minashvili handed Makarov to Gerbachev and said calmly, "There will be two choices. One is to become a prisoner of the Soviet army and then be sent to the Supreme Court. The final result may be a death sentence or life imprisonment. The other is to commit suicide before the Soviet army catches you, but it's just a matter of whether you die in a decent way."

No matter which ending, it is a nightmare for Gerbachev, who had just escaped from the Ural Mountains.

"I will lead the Georgian army to fight to the last moment. This is my ending."

Minashvili pushed Makarov, who was shining with cold light, in front of Gerbachev and said coldly, "So you choose it yourself, Mr. President Gerbachev." (To be continued.)
