Yes, I dont know why are you being disingenuous.No. What they say on page 183 is:
The definition just changed for the third time.I meant running out of fuel as in they used up all they had and there was none left to issue to the troops.
And you are still attacking a massive strawman.
Temporary shortages hit everyone but my case is that whilst the chaotic conditions of the retreat destroyed the supply line there was always enough petrol to keep the tanks moving-if they had not been crushed and sent fleeing back home
Of course there was enough petrol to keep 30 000 vehicles moving and idlying in massive traffic jams on what appears to be a dozen cartographically significant roads.
And they were also being supplied via the same route they were retreating through,for all intents and purposes a completely bombed out system of bridges and ferries, all effectively, to keep even something like Panzer IV with its moderate fuel consumption moving.
OF COURSE.
