"Never forget that the Russians are common blood-stained

nobody really knows

>when you have a medal for every one of your men killed during your operations

>The Nazis? A trifle! It was simply a matter of outsmarting them. You see, Nazis have a preset ammunition limit. Knowing their weakness, I sent wave after wave of my own men at them until they reached their limit and were defenseless.Ivan, show them the medals I won!

What did he mean by this?

Jesus, humans were just like toys in his mind.

>Now I want you to remember that no Russian ever won a war by living for his country. He won it by charging across an open field into a machine gun nest and getting ripped to pieces.

-Georgy Zhukov, giving his famous pep talk to the 3rd Guards Tank Army

>Sun Tzu said that the way of war is the way of deception. I say that the way of war is the way paved by Russian 20 year olds

Truly a tactical genius

do you think they had to invent new medals to give this guy once they ended up giving him is 4th or 5th copy of a medal?

Obviously he really was a double agent for the Nazis. Russians just couldn't die at a fast enough rate for Hitler to win.

This is why we live in the right timeline. America got the nukes first.

He means that if you invade a country 20 times larger than yours without complete technological supremacy you're gonna have a bad time

"The new Bacon Double Cheeseburger was quite delicious. There were copious amounts of crispy thin bacon, plenty of cheese, and wayyyy too much ketchup and mustard. The thing packed a flavor punch, and for a $1.89, it was a pretty good deal. As I said in my previous post I’m not a fan of Mcdonald’s beef, but the flavor and crunch of the bacon aided in overcoming my fears."

What did Zhukov mean by this?

>send hordes of russians to their certain death without giving a flying fuck
>still win and be known as hero

How does he do it?
