"Comrades, we have completed the encirclement of Guderian's cluster and are ready to attack at any time, ask Comrade Stalin for instructions!"

In the Kontsevo dacha on the outskirts of Moscow, the generals of the Supreme High Command gathered in Stalin's office. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoAt this moment, the atmosphere here is very different from when the war broke out, and everyone has an expression of anticipation and even joy on their faces.

In recent times, the fighting of the Soviet Red Army has been going quite smoothly. All armies on all fronts (with the exception of the Western Front) successfully launched an effective resistance against the Germans, and with the exception of the 2nd Panzer Group commanded by Guderian, the rest of the German units failed to break through the "Manturov Line".

Even though Guderian opened a gap in the Manturov Line and advanced rapidly, the Soviet Red Army reinforcements also successfully launched several blockades to stop Guderian's advance. At the same time, the Soviet Red Army also gathered a large number of troops, gathered on both sides of Guderian's cluster, and launched a siege.

After a round of fighting, the Soviet Red Army succeeded in encircling Guderian's second panzer group in the area around Slutsk. In Stalin's opinion, it was only a matter of time before the Guderian cluster was annihilated, the question was how much the Soviet army would lose and how much it would cost.

"Attack! Destroy Guderian! Stalin resolutely issued an order to encircle and annihilate the second armored group, and as soon as the order was issued, a fierce encirclement and annihilation battle officially began.

At Stalin's order, Soviet tanks on the front rumbled forward and advanced. A large number of Red Army fighters, under the cover of a torrent of steel and a large number of Soviet aircraft, launched a charge on the Germans of the 2nd Panzer Group.

Suddenly, the sound of "Ula" resounded throughout half of Belarus, followed by intensive shelling, gunfire. These voices blend together to create a symphony.

The armies of the Soviet Union and Germany began to fight, and under the intensive offensive of the Soviet army, intensive artillery bombardment and bombardment, the ground was soon dyed black with explosives, and the blood of the fallen soldiers flowed on the ground and converged into one bloody river after another.

While the front-line soldiers were fighting bloodily, the atmosphere in Kontsevo's villa was very calm. All the members of the Supreme High Command - Stalin, Molotov, Timoshenko, Budyonny, Voroshilov, Shaposhnikov, Zhukov and Manturov - sat in the command room of the Kontsevo villa and "watched the play".

At this moment, the command room of the Kontsevo villa suddenly turned into a live broadcast room, where every few minutes the latest battle reports would arrive, and immediately afterwards someone (mainly Vatutin and Vasilevsky) would explain here, drawing on the combat map with pencils of different colors.

The generals of the Supreme High Command all sat on the sidelines to watch the explanations of Vatutin and Vasilevsky. Next to each seat, there is a drink, and after being hungry for a long time, there are people who bring the meal and continue to watch the live broadcast while eating.

"Report to Comrade Stalin, our troops have divided and surrounded the German 46th Panzer Army, the 10th Panzer Division has surrendered to us, but the Greater German Division and the 2nd SS Division belonging to the 46th Panzer Army are still stubbornly resisting." At this time, an encouraging battle report came.

Although the Germans were still resisting, the surrender of their entire Panzer Division was indeed a great thing for Stalin, who was accustomed to losing battles.

When Stalin heard the news, his confidence in resisting the enemy was even more inspired, he stood up excitedly, glanced at the generals present, and said: "Comrades, it's time to destroy the enemy!" The German fascists imposed this war on us, on the Soviet people, and now we have to see the power of the Soviets! We must destroy them! Victory will be ours! Ulla! ”

While the Soviet High Command was immersed in the joy of victory, the officers and generals of the German army were immersed in grief.

Throughout the ages, almost every battle has had a winner or loser. The winning side tends to feel joy and excitement, while the losing side tends to be sad, depressed, and sad.

At this moment, it was inevitable that Guderian's cluster would be surrounded and annihilated by Soviet troops. Whether it is troops, air supremacy, equipment, morale, etc., the Soviet Red Army has an absolute advantage.

In this battle, the "Greater Germany" division and the "Reich" division (the second SS division), the two ace units of the German army, fell into the encirclement of the Soviet army.

The Greater German Division and the Reich Division were both the most famous and high-quality units in the German army. The soldiers and officers in these two divisions are the elite of the German army, and they can only enter this ace unit after careful selection.

However, no matter how good the quality of the soldiers and how advanced the equipment of this unit was, they were already completely surrounded by the Soviet Red Army.

After a round of fighting and countless indiscriminate bombardments, the Großdeutsche Division had lost nearly half of its morale under such circumstances, and its fighting spirit became more and more depressed.

The Greater German Division, unlike the 2nd SS Division, was a unit that belonged to the Wehrmacht. Unlike the SS, which had political requirements, Wehrmacht soldiers did not necessarily have Nazi membership, and many Wehrmacht officers were not Nazi and even had suspicions or even opposition to Nazi positions.

Some Wehrmacht officers (many of them high-ranking positions), including Halder, the chief of the German General Staff, and Rieb, commander of Army Group North, were plotting plans to assassinate Hitler and overthrow the Nazi regime.

In terms of fighting qualities, the 2nd SS Division may not be the match for the Wehrmacht's Greater German Division, but in terms of political firmness, the Greater German Division was not only inferior to the SS composed of Nazi members, but also inferior to the Soviet Red Army.

Therefore, at this critical juncture, the morale of the Greater German Division began to be confused, and many people, including the division commander, General Walter Holren, were hesitating whether to continue fighting.

"Report to the chief, the 10th Panzer Division has surrendered to the enemy! Our troops have already been divided by enemy forces and are completely surrounded, please give instructions! ”

Holrenne sighed, a tiger and wolf army that once blitzed Poland, captured Paris, and defeated the Anglo-French army, is now about to be defeated by the Soviet Red Army.

Before the war, in the eyes of the Germans, the Soviet Union was nothing more than a poor country with backward technology and development, and the Soviet Red Army was nothing more than a poorly equipped and poorly disciplined army.

However, it was only after the war that the Germans discovered that their enemies were not as simple as they had imagined. Although the Soviet Union was backward, the level of military industry here was far beyond the imagination of the Germans.

Although the Soviet Red Army lacked training, the Germans were eye-opening to the Germans with their will to fight, the people's determination to resist foreign enemies, and their relatively advanced equipment.
