This story was used as a chapter title in Antony Beevor’s book on Stalingrad (or another one of his) and it was so fitting. Germans racing across the Soviet Union, conquering everything but exhausting their momentum and overextending their supply lines, then the last line of the story answering the chapter title. Beautiful.
