I also built an extensive network of trenches, minefields, barbed wire entanglements, tank traps and firing positions in the liberated territories, designed to slow down any attack - sometimes called the "Surovikin Line". I also, together with the commander of the Wagner PMC Prigozhin, argued with Defense Minister Shoigu and General Gerasimov about the tactics used during the war. Of course, when Prigozhin rebelled, I had to take Putin’s side, and after some time I was removed from command.
