To be fair to the Soviets though every army that had gone up against the Wehrmacht had suffered the same fate, including the French Army and the BEF, considered by many to be the two finest armies in the world at the time. That's not to say that there weren't inadequacies in the Red Army because there most certainly was. But a new style of warfare heavily compounded those inadequacies.
