War Military: From 1978

Chapter 284 Chu An's Counter-argument!
"He's gone mad, what is Su Xiu trying to do?"

"This is absolutely outrageous!"

"This is insane! They're completely disregarding us!"

Inside the dormitory, the news brought by the squad leader immediately ignited everyone's emotions.

They are all military personnel, and all are officer cadets, currently studying at a military academy.

A peaceful and stable life, coupled with the school's consistent efforts to cultivate a sense of the big picture among students.

Therefore, everyone is quite familiar with the situation of Soviet revisionism.

Because of this, there are more than one people now looking like they're gritting their teeth!
The Soviet revisionists' actions suggest they really don't take us seriously.

Our army has also deployed a million troops on the border to confront them.

How dare they completely ignore the standoff between the two sides' armies, which number over two million, and directly open up a second front?

And it was done so decisively and so quickly.

"This is the result of geopolitics, ideology, and the rivalry between two superpowers!" Huang Jianping said with a serious expression in the dormitory.

AFH, many people know its location.

Or rather, even if some people were unaware of this before, now that this news has arrived, a world map has been placed before everyone's eyes.

This is due to its pivotal position in Central Asia, which holds significant strategic importance.

Moreover, the Middle East possesses abundant resources.

This is a huge pie, and the United States, one of the world's two superpowers, has already made its move here, so it's not too surprising that the Soviet Union took action.

Of course, this was hardly a surprise to Chu An.

He had known about the outbreak of this battle for a long time.

He had even been waiting for this battle to break out.

This is yet another historical moment, witnessing the self-destructive path of a superpower, the beginning of its collapse.

Yes.

According to the newspapers, the situation for Soviet revisionism is indeed very good.

In just three hours, an airborne division took complete control of the Afghan capital and government.

Seven more ground divisions will follow.

Everything now seems to be a war without any surprises.

Even Chu An.

If he hadn't known the outcome, he wouldn't have dared to imagine that this seemingly perfect start could drag the Soviet Union into a long-term war.

"Damn it, if the Soviet Union occupies Afghanistan, their power will definitely increase again, and with the resources of the Middle East, they will definitely provide more aid to the Vietnamese."

"Moreover, if this battle gives them confidence, they might actually fight us in the north!"

Inside the dormitory hallway, the more they learned about the situation, the more worried everyone became.

In everyone's eyes, Ah Guo was already on the verge of collapse.

Even if, in a couple of days, Azerbaijan announces its complete fall and the country is taken over by the Soviet Union, they wouldn't be surprised at all.

However, if such a situation were to occur, it would clearly be unbearable for our country.

"It won't end so quickly!" Chu An said this very suddenly.

In an instant, all the trainees and squad leaders who heard the noise in the corridor, including members of the other two squads, looked over.

Chu An's expression remained unchanged: "A country has more than just a capital city, and it has more than just one regime and one armed force!"

"Squad Leader Chu, the capital of Aguo is finished, and the supreme leader is gone. The situation is now very clear."

"As long as the pro-Soviet regime comes to power, even if Azerbaijan has other armed forces, I don't think they can really hold out for long against the armed forces of the domestic regime and the 100,000-strong Soviet army!" A squad leader from the Second District said.

Immediately, someone from the First Squad nodded in agreement: "Indeed, it would be good if they could hold out for a week, but Su Xiu probably has at least a month to go!"

Even the platoon leader said with a heavy expression, "Yes! Su Xiu may have been inspired by us!"

He frowned and explained, "We launched a counterattack in self-defense, fought and withdrew quickly, and completed a war in just one month."

At the same time, because of our swift action, even if they really wanted to provide support and start a war with us, they couldn't launch a pincer attack on us from the north!

We were done before they even realized what was happening!
And now, they must be thinking the same thing!

The squad leader clenched his fist: "Don't even mention a week. If they can completely end the war and control the situation within a month, then it will be basically impossible for Aguo to recover."

Even if the Eagle Empire wants to do something.

But once it was all a fait accompli, it was too late for them to do anything.

At least, it's unlikely that the Soviet Union and the Eagle Empire will actually go to war.

"No, I stand by my opinion!" Chu An looked at the district captain, then at the others again: "Actually, the situation is definitely not that bad. This war in A-Guo is different from our war with Yue-Guo." Chu An was now working backward from the answer.

After a moment's thought, Chu An looked at everyone around him again and said, "Our country is different from the Soviet Union."

In fact, if the Soviet Union really wanted to attack us, they could have done so on the second day after our counterattack began.

After all, they had already deployed troops to the border and made all the necessary preparations.

If I really wanted to take action, it might not even take 24 hours.

All it takes is a meeting to make a firm decision and then issue the orders to the front lines!

Chu An took a breath: "But why didn't they make a move?"

Chu An didn't wait for anyone to answer the question before revealing the answer directly: "They weren't actually caught off guard, they just hadn't thought it through."

Or rather, they don't dare to really fight.

After all, we have a vast territory, and we are also a country with nuclear weapons.

The important thing is that our economy is too backward.

Strictly speaking, it is currently incomparable to the Soviet Union and the Eagle Empire.

Chu An smiled helplessly: "Although I don't want to admit it, the difference between us and Su Xiu right now is really like the difference between being barefoot and wearing shoes."

They were wearing shoes, while we were barefoot, in addition to the exchange tactic proposed by the great man.

Once they start a war with us, even if we face attacks from both sides.

Even if they can defeat us, they themselves will definitely suffer heavy losses.

They might even be dragged into a protracted war, only to have the Eagle Empire reap the benefits—a result they cannot accept!

"What does this have to do with A-Guo?" The third squad leader asked, frowning.

Chu An looked at him: "Yes, and it's very important!"

Chu An didn't keep them in suspense. Looking at the group of frowning classmates and even the district captain, he said, "Ah Guo is not our country. They are too fragile, and the current situation is too critical. Therefore, another superpower will definitely take action immediately."

After a pause, Chu An continued, "They can't just stand by and watch Aguo be controlled by Su Xiu."

This is the essential difference between Afghanistan and our country.

After all, we have the power to fight back. Even if we can't win, we can still make them suffer by ourselves, even if we're barefoot.

Moreover, the war between Su Xiuzhen and us will definitely not be over in a day or two.

But it's different for A-country; if they're even a little slower, A-country will really be gone.

Therefore, they will inevitably intervene immediately and prolong the war indefinitely!

Everyone fell silent at Chu An's point of view.

Everyone is considering this possibility.

Then someone raised another question: "But in the current situation, even if the Eagle Empire intervenes, it probably won't make much of a difference, right?"
After all, the capital had already fallen and the government was under control.

With internal and external cooperation, coupled with the entry of the Soviet army, even if the Eagle Empire intervenes immediately.

But having lost the initiative, and even with the capital of Afghanistan fallen, how can they retake it?

Chu An laughed: "Everyone, war isn't just about controlling the government and its territory!"
For example, we previously conquered the northern regions of Vietnam, but did we truly succeed in occupying them and ending the war in the north?

"Ah! This!"

At that moment, more than one person stared wide-eyed and opened their mouth.

Yes!

The northern part of Vietnam was previously conquered by us, but is the war in the northern part of Vietnam over?

That's nonsense. From the start of the war to the last day of the withdrawal, there was no stopping the gunfire throughout the entire northern Vietnam region.

Even more so, when our army was withdrawing, the Vietnamese devils kept chasing and attacking our troops.

Similarly, even if one regime in Afghanistan is pro-Soviet, would other armed groups and the people agree with it?

As long as there is no agreement, and there are people behind it continuously providing weapons, equipment and all the necessary supplies for combat, can this war really be completely ended?
Unless all those who resist are killed.

But is this possible?
For a moment, everyone was confused, and the squad leader, after recovering, solemnly ordered: "Listen up, everyone, this conversation is classified as top secret!"

After saying that, he looked directly at Chu An and said, "Chu An, come with me!"

Chu An's current remarks and opinions are truly too peculiar.

But after hearing Chu An's explanation, everyone genuinely believed that the situation would likely continue in this manner.

At least he believes it now!

Therefore, the squad leader did not know whether the higher-level leaders of our country had seen this.

But in any case, keeping this opinion a secret and then reporting it is the right thing to do!
