"What is the current trend of the Southern Army under Manstein's command, which was merged with Army Group Center and renamed the Deutsche Army?"

"And where is the exact location of the German Flying Leopard special forces that successfully attacked our troops?"

When Zhukov was in a troubled mood, Rokossovsky, who had not spoken, suddenly interjected and interrupted Zhukov's muttering.

"In the end, our reserve is the reorganized 37th Army, which will be under the jurisdiction of the 175th, 206th, 147th, 296th, 284th, 302nd and other infantry divisions, as well as the 88th Tank Army of the Reserve Tank Army, have they all been deployed to the battlefield to participate in the battle?"

"And our latest main reinforcements, has the transport train arrived at our designated assembly location? Marshal Zhukov! ”

Before Zhukov could react, Rokossovsky continued.

"The 37th Army has been put into the battlefield, and as for the German Army's Flying Leopard Special Forces, I have also dispatched 18 commandos to encircle and suppress, and our latest main reinforcements should be about half an hour before they can take the train to our designated place for assembly!"

Zhukov, who came back to his senses, thought about it and responded truthfully.

"And what about the current situation of the Volkhov Front? Did they still fight the Germans in the area from Lake Ilmen to Lake Ladoga? ”

After listening, Rokossovsky asked seriously.

"Hmmm! The Volkhov Front, whether it was the 2nd, 8th, 4th, 54th, 52nd and 19th armies, as well as the 14th army, were still assisting the Leningrad Front in the front from Lake Ilmen to Lake Ladoga, and were fighting fiercely against the German battle groups! ”

"It's just that because the snowstorm is too big and the weather is too cold, there are fewer battles now!"

Zhukov continued to answer.

"Then the forces of the 67 Army under the command of General Dukhanov have not been replenished? What happened to their remaining two and a half divisions? ”

Rokossovsky also continued to ask.

"I have been replenished with half a cent of troops, and I have joined forces with the 59th Army, which is the most combat-effective under Commander Meretskov, to carry out a counterattack against the German army!"

"However, in the last few days of fighting, the number of their casualties is still relatively large!"

"I've evacuated them for rest and supplies!"

Zhukov continued to promise.

"Then their combat mission is to complete the encirclement and annihilation of the German army in the Novgorod region from their base camp, including the capture of the city of Luga, the advance to the line of Krabkitzen and Lesser Udolkosh, to block the main retreat of the German army in Pskov, and from there to outflank the main forces of the German army, and to hand them over to those units?"

After hearing that Zhukov had withdrawn all the troops of the 67th Army and the 59th Army for rest, Rokossovsky suddenly exclaimed.

"It was carried out by the troops of the Leningrad Front, because this time in the battle of Leningrad they wanted to take revenge on the German army and wash away the hatred of the encirclement of Leningrad!"

Zhukov replied without hesitation.

"What about Tihwen? The German army's flexible, capable, well-equipped, fast-moving, well-trained, and combat-ready Flying Leopard special forces, the commandos you just said have not yet found them and eradicated them! ”

"And according to the German army's sneak attack on Tikhwen the day before yesterday, they also sent a large force to assist in the attack!"

"It is clear that the goal of the Germans is to occupy Tikhvin and cut off all the supply lines of Leningrad, so that Leningrad is truly cut off from outside aid and lacks food and all supplies."

"The Germans are going to starve all the people of Leningrad to death, and then capture all of Leningrad!"

"Even if Tikhvin is occupied by the Germans, we can still solve the problem of transporting food and weapons and equipment, as well as ammunition, by building a road from Zaboriye railway station north to Tikhvin to New Ladoga."

"But if we are to do that, then we will need a large number of ships and aviation to escort the convoy to be able to transport military supplies and medicines, as well as food and soldiers, through the waters on the shores of Lake Ladoga!"

Rokossovsky frowned and voiced his concerns.

"I know all this, so we can't lose it whether it's Tikhvin or Leningrad, this battle, we can only win, we can't lose!"

"Because whether it is the loss of Leningrad or Moscow's military morale towards our troops, there will be great shaking and confusion, including the hearts of the whole people!"

Zhukov also looked very solemn and nodded lightly in agreement.
