"I am here to learn about the development and tactics of tanks from you." Brusilov spoke very directly and sincerely.
Most officers who have experienced the battlefield have this trait.
The reason is that they have gone through life and death and know that in the face of battlefield victory or defeat, the "face" that ordinary people care about is negligible.
"As you know." Brusilov sighed lightly: "The performance of our army on the Eastern Front is terrible. No matter how much geographical and manpower advantage we have, the casualty ratio against the enemy is about 5:1, sometimes even worse. This is true even when fighting against the army of Austria-Hungary."
The combat effectiveness of the Austria-Hungary army is far inferior to that of the German Army, but the army of Tsarist Russia still crumbled and fell apart in their assault.
