The combined German forces in the East had to be marshaled to quell ONE Russian army- the Russians had several others that were dedicated to fighting Germany- AND it was a pretty desperate fight. The Russians were forced out of Germany a week after the battle, and were never able to threaten it again. The poor Russian logistics allowed the Germans to take the initiative from then on.
