It's going to be really hard to top Russian incompetency.
Like, it's 3 years since the start of the war, and they are STILL fighting in Kupyansk, a city of 26k people, just 40 km (25 miles) from Russian border.

And they are already at "The one with the rifle shoots! The one without follows him! When the one with the rifle gets killed, the one who follows picks up the rifle and shoots!" Stalingrad level tactics.

Yeah, this is like Escape from Tarkov -level scavenger level warfare. Go in in your civvies and try to loot your own gear from the dead.

This will require some "decisive tang victory, 25k people eaten" incompetency from China to top it off.
