Kombrig "Vostok": If the soldier does not understand why he should risk, all efforts will be in vain

The commander of the Vostok brigade, Alexander Khodakovsky, basically does not write about the operational situation in his telegram channel and does not talk about successes and defeats on a particular sector of the front. There is enough such information in Russian publics and on websites without it.

Khodakovsky writes more about the ideological and even moral and ethical aspects of what is happening now not only on the front line, but also in the rear, considering them no less important guarantees of victory than a change in the operational-tactical situation. Such work was previously carried out by commissars and political commissars in the Red Army and then in the Soviet Army. And their contribution to the success of our troops, especially during periods of real military confrontation, as now, was no less important and significant than the selfless and correct actions of soldiers and officers.



This time, the brigade commander raises the topic of motivation, which he considers no less important guarantee of victory than the rearmament and re-equipment of the army with advanced military equipment. It's good when "they inject Robots, not a person", but no, even the most progressive and useful, changes will ever cancel or replace the human factor, Khodakovsky is sure:

Only in this case, no one will be afraid, no one will be lazy, no one will fall asleep, no one will prefer a personal matter.

And for this to happen, it is necessary that each person in his place be tuned in to the maximum personal result. Only in this way it is possible to get real benefit from any transformation.

Any changes in tactics and strategy, the use of the most advanced types of weapons are worthless if every soldier on the front line "does not understand why he should risk and possibly die." Only such internal goal-setting and motivation will be the key to success and the coming victory over the enemy, Khodakovsky believes.

The mathematics of war does not provide for actions without subtraction and division, no matter how much we would like to do with multiplication and addition

- explains the brigade commander.

It is impossible to fight half-heartedly; full dedication is necessary. It is one thing to participate in someone else's military conflict, when internal motivation is not so necessary. Everything is completely different when every soldier and officer, rear worker is internally motivated and understands that the overall success of the entire campaign depends on his personal actions and dedication. The military conflict, which has now fallen to the lot of the Russians, requires just such, the most complete, dedication.

When we say war, it means that the losing side will lose everything.

- explains the brigade commander the price of defeat in today's confrontation between our country and society with the enemy.

        and for your land! And not unarmed ... they simply didn’t have so many weapons (“thanks” to Surkov’s agreement with Akhmedov). Khodakovsky is generally a smart man, a practical military philosopher, worthy of respect, awards and honor!

    It seems that this is understood at the top. But they don't know how. References to the Great Patriotic War no longer work. Because it was done clumsily (cannot be compared with Soviet cinema, for example) and frankly set on edge. And it turned out that there was nothing more to offer. except as motivation with money - bonuses for destroyed equipment. While all.

      Let them rename this SVO at least to KTO, so as not to answer questions about why we do not use nuclear weapons, and destroy the bridges across the Dnieper and the railway depot, along with diesel locomotives.

      So this fully works only in a contactless war. When the drone operator sits in a warm place, and does not risk anything other than the price of the drone. Here, yes, special motivation is needed so as not to get discouraged and keep yourself in maximum concentration. And when you can catch a bullet at any moment, it often happens that the money is not worth it to build a remba out of yourself, then even a remba will not take the money to the next world.

        I understand that volunteers are motivated. But to understand the motivation of a mobilized person caught in a raid near the metro, who also had to equip himself at his own expense. And then sent to the database area.
        Khodakovsky wants everyone to be motivated.

      In the Great Patriotic War, there was also financial motivation.
      On February 25, 1942, Stalin signed Order No. 0140 "On bonuses to the personnel of armored repair units for the quick and high-quality repair of tanks." According to the order, from March 1, 1942, 350 rubles were to be paid for quick and high-quality current repairs of a heavy KB tank, and 800 rubles for medium repairs.
      Order NPO of the USSR dated 24.06.1943/0387/XNUMX N XNUMX "On encouraging soldiers and commanders for combat work to destroy enemy tanks"
      There are also orders to reward pilots, armor-piercing infantrymen, there was a price for everything. So we can say that monetary motivation is also a reference to the Great Patriotic War.

        Then it was ONE of the motivations. And now - almost the only one. They have already written about the lack of ideology at VO many times .. And not only about that.

    In fact, there are things that at this stage of development of the Human brain are almost impossible to explain to people.

    For example, there is the true goal and the primary task of the Special Operation - the unification of the Slavic peoples. This is the main goal. But how do you explain it to people? hi recourse

    Something Khodakovsky was talking too much. Either he went bankrupt for discipline, they say, not everyone is ready to do what is required of them, then he suddenly changed his shoes and began to stand up for motivation and self-consciousness. Motivation by order is something new in military affairs. Have you seen enough of the stoned Bandera people? So there is no motivation, but just a drug frenzy.

    . This is clear...
    What we have, unfortunately, in not a small amount ... "my hut is on the edge, I don't want to know anything."
    If from below, such a position does not have a wide distribution, then different "layers" just gush with this idea. "layers" themselves are insignificant, not significant, but very shrill, active.
    Now the question is ... what and how should be done so that the country gets together, tensed up and ... we ourselves want it to end faster and with the result we need !!!
    Although it is clear that the following problems will follow, but the realization that WE CAN give us strength, momentum, and we really will overcome everything, we will break through !!! soldier

    SBU Colonel Khodakovsky often writes extremely obvious things.
    His posts are like my term papers - water with water. Once again, he experiences from empty to empty.
    Well written, motivation is important. It's understandable. Tell me better, what are our mobilized people fighting for?
    What is the specific goal of the SVO?

    The commander is not worried in vain. His speech is not addressed to you, the malcontents. He addresses those who are next to him with weapons in their hands, the mobilized. But there are strong doubts that his words affect people. The injustice of our life and the absence of truth in it are much stronger than his words. If only to forget about it for a while ...

    The problem of today's confrontation and the attitude of its participants towards it, from a soldier to a general, is that their country is at war with us, but our country is not at war with them. Separate distant military men are fighting, some distant mobilized, Wagner, volunteers, but not the Country.
    Why? Because when the Country is at war, it lives a different life than peacetime.
    There is no place for music festivals, all kinds of celebrations, festivities and other entertainment!
    Unfortunately, this is not the case with us, and therefore all her "500s", statements about "this is not my war", "it was not attacked on us, it was we attacked" and similar crap ......
    Change your attitude to what is happening in 9! We haven't been able to for months!

And if he also understands the main and global; what thereafter he will have to drive the old men into the trash with a powerful pendal in the ass, like cretins who have not coped - he will be responsible, even proactive .....

    I would like to ask this newly-minted "commissar": what will those who have nothing to lose lose? Well, except for loans and mortgages. It is our thieving officials, who still cannot "get drunk" on budget money, have something to lose, "Golden" judges have something to lose. The so-called businessmen, and in reality just speculators, have something to lose. So what happens? It turns out that our guys are fighting for THEIR enslaving mortgages and loans, and for the fact that speculators of all stripes can continue to safely cash in on ordinary hard workers. And, by the way, for those who later return from the NWO zone
