im just saying that russians don't have enough communication lines to the east of their country, the most developed part of the country is the west, but is from the central, north and east(siberia) where the major reserves of natural resources are found, and there is no town in 200 miles from another, there is the most vulnerable part of russia, anybody could start an invasion from there and russians never will know until 1 or 2 days, because of the lack of communications,(this is just figurative, everybody knows RADAR)but i mean that russia is vulnerable from that part of their country and the chinese is just an example of the thing any country could do(not any but at least china or USA), anyways is hard to advance more than 1000 miles inside of russia without be united states...and good scarfs...
mexsoldier you lack of understanding of china's millitary
You said Russia can't know if china will attack them from south , and china has advantage of suprize , well that is very false..
As of right now, by treaty, both Russian and Chinese formations are to be stationed 100 miles from their respective borders. The only forces accepted by both sides are border patrols.
So if china starts moving divisions past the 100 miles , its gonna give russia the heads up , and they could ready themselfs or even prepare the guards army.
And your talking about 1000 miles , i know you said its very hard , but China can't even get past 100.
With the Military Regions that borders with Russia, ONLY the 38 and 39 Group Armies have a chance of going into Siberia. The rest is foot infantry and also stationed 100 miles back from the Russian boarder.
And even the 38 and 39 Group army's , by doctrine, will not go beyond 100 miles into Russia.
Russia still has pretty good logistics inside and can move divisions fastly to aproach chinese army's , and they even have divisions stationed near the south , and chinese 38 and 39 Group army's would need to get more than 100 miles inside Russia , which given by the Chinese doctrine is not possible , but lets say even if they managed to get there they would stand no chance even against that distrinct.
And besides your scenario just does not fit in PLA plans. If anything, their focus is Taiwan, not Russia and while they're building examples of an amphibious force, they're nowhere close in the numbers needed.
Here is a regiment that China would likely encounter , that is if they could get past 100 miles
Cossack Separate Motor Rifle Regiment, Borzya
29th Army, Ulan-Ude
5th Guards Tank Division
245 Motor Rifle Division
11 Air Assault Brigade
36th Army, Borzya
131st Motor Rifle Division, Sretensk
41st Army, Novosibirsk
85th Motor Rifle Division
74th Motor Rifle Brigade, Yurga(Constant readiness
Basicaly that means China could have only little chance with 3 engineering regiments and 2 corps attacking russia , before they get at around 100 miles into territory to meet resistance the russians would already have 15 divisions backed up by 25 gun brigades and they would make baked goats out of them , Chinese could also have no use from their airforce since they would have to get past vast SAM sites , and there is no chance they would get past them with the current airforce , im not even mentioning Russian airforce .
So see , china lacks the logistics or the military to even come more than 100 miles into Russia , and they have no real chance of surviving , further from that China has no desire nor any plans or anything that would even slightly have their interest to attack Russia , so there is really no threat from there ..
