Answer:
Enkidu awakens from a chilling nightmare. In the dream, the gods were angry with him and Gilgamesh and met to decide their fate. Great Anu, Ishtar’s father and the god of the firmament, decreed that they must punish someone for killing Humbaba and the Bull of Heaven and for felling the tallest cedar tree. Only one of the companions, however, must die. Enlil, Humbaba’s master and the god of earth, wind, and air, said that Enkidu should be the one to die. Shamash, the sun god, defended Enkidu. He said that Enkidu and Gilgamesh were only doing what he told them to do when they went to the Cedar Forest. Enlil became angry that Shamash took their side and accused Shamash of being their comrade, not a god.
The dream proves true when Enkidu falls ill. Overcome with self-pity, he curses the cedar gate that he and Gilgamesh brought back from the forbidden forest. He says he would have chopped the gate to pieces if he’d known his fate, and that he’d rather be forgotten forever than doomed to die like this. Gilgamesh is distraught. He tells Enkidu that he has gone before the gods himself to plead his case, but that Enlil was adamant. Gilgamesh promises his friend that he will build him an even greater monument than the cedar gate. He will erect an enormous statue of Enkidu, made entirely of gold.

Answer:
The Nazi military tactic that led to their rapid success in World War II was the blitzkrieg.
Explanation:
Blitzkrieg is a military tactic based on the combination of mechanization, air power and telecommunications, aimed at the development of rapid and overwhelming maneuvers designed to break down enemy lines at their weakest points and then proceed to encircle and destroy isolated units, without giving any ability to react, given the constant state of movement of the attacking units.
Crowned by a resounding success during World War II, in the countryside of Poland, France and the Balkans, the Blitzkrieg showed the first shortcomings during the Barbarossa Operation. In fact, while on the western battlefields the operational distances were estimated in the order of tens of miles (allowing the mechanized infantry to almost never lose contact with the advancing armored units), in the endless Russian steppes the formations often ended up enormously lengthening, distributing the attack units along impressive-sized routes, making the aggregate infantry accumulate delays in the order of days with respect to the Panzer-Division.
