Sokolov, an ex-GRU Spetznaz, has joined almost every war after the Afghanistan war. He was killed and reincarnated as a Red Army conscript defending Smolensk from the German Army.
Under his leadership, the Red Army created one miracle followed by another.
Guderian: I will only need one division to defeat 3 or more Russian divisions, but I will need 3 or more divisions to stop Sokolov troops from advancing.
Mainstein: He is a tough enemy, I will need time to think of a way to counter his tactics, but he seems to be able to counter every one of my tactics immediately.
Zhukov: If there is anywhere we can't hold from the enemies, send Sokolov. If there is anywhere we can't break through, send Sokolov.
Rokossovsky: It took only a few years for him to grow from a soldier to a general, sometimes I doubt myself, how long can I hold if I was his enemy?
