Re: 6th Army commander.
I also think it's a question about what the commander in question would have done before and during the soviet attack:
- Keep the armoured units intact and not commit them to the city filled with rubble.
- Keep horses with the 6th Army, and thus enabling 6th Army to move without losing all the haevy equipment immediately.
- Immediately commit the reserves (which later got ordered to each and every direction) Hitler had placed in the rear areas to counter any soviet attack against the axis forces securing the flank.
