I, the Soviet Union, have a large population of poorly trained soldiers. You have better trained soldiers, but fewer. I decide to attack multiple points along your lines with large numbers, with more in reserve along the different points. If I attack, and I don’t let up until an area begins to weaken and drop; I can overwhelm you and break through before you can know where to send reinforcements, because I was ready to breach anywhere.
It’s different from blitzkrieg in that instead of one area with a tremendous force breaking through, it is multiple large forces kitting all over.
