Are we saying the same things?

The Soviet/Russian/Chinese system does not envisioned choosing a place in line. It's more of a "feel" in line where resistence is the softest (where also maybe the hardest terrain). The current force fixes the enemy in place while a follow up echelon goes where the resistence is the lightest for the "breakthrough" which in reality is an envelopment manouver along a 2ndary or even a tierary axis.
