That's also how it worked out in central Finland during WW2. A normally 2-D army was confined to roads, making it 1-D with exposed flanks. The Finns were able to starve them out, with very low losses. Shoot up their field kitchens (vital in the cold), keep'em awake all night with gunfire, and they crumble pretty quickly.
