After breaking through several layers of impregnable defensive belts, the Germans of these two divisions finally came to the rear of the Soviet troops on the north shore of the two lakes. It stands to reason that this strategic purpose of the German army has been exposed when the 47th Division attacked the city of Pskov, and the Soviets could not have guessed it, but they only simply did some defense, and the large forces of the front line were still in the stage of holding off with the large forces of the German army.

However, for this situation, the two German divisions of the detour naturally did not dare to hold up, although they knew that the strength of the Soviet army was not as strong as their own, but the number of enemies was still there after all, and this was also the enemy's territory, and it was quite simple to lay any traps.

Unbeknownst to Trode, while they were slowly battling the scattered enemy, their division commander was fighting another, more tricky group of men - the rest of the Army Group commanders for the operation.

Prior to this operation, Anselm's instincts, which had come from years of fighting, told him that what was now in front of his 47th Division was definitely a trap, a deadly trap. Later, Anselm had a face-to-face meeting with the commander of another mixed infantry division, who also believed that this was a trick set up by the Soviets. However, according to the time set for them above, they did not have much time, and it was the only feasible way to carry out a major surprise attack on the enemy's large forces as planned.

But it can be done. Both Anselm and another division commander understood this very well, and in order to communicate with the troops at the front, they communicated with the commanders on the front, but the information they received was obvious and ruthless. They still had to carry out this strategy as originally planned, because the troops on the front line were already quite tired, and Anselm and they had to create a breakthrough in a short time.

However, for this request, of course, these two division commanders could not agree, and those people said lightly. It's because it's not their troops who are fighting in this place, they don't understand their situation, and they don't have a backache when they stand and talk, and they definitely hope that they will sell more strength.

After two days of heated debate, the two division commanders even staked their posts in the end, and only then did they balance the negotiations on their side, and although the conditions they won were not particularly favorable, they were quite good compared to the initial strategy.

Tactics have been set in the new way. It was these two divisions that smoothly advanced to the rear of the enemy's large forces, set up defensive lines at close range, and held the area without taking a single step back until the front-line troops had penetrated the enemy's line and converged with it. This is more stable and gentle than the previous tactic of being easily surrounded and annihilated by enemy troops. However, this is not easy, because the detour tactics require long journeys, so these two did not carry many heavy weapons, and these are exactly what they need to defend their positions. So Trode: The rest of their lives won't be easy.

However, these strategic changes were not yet known to Trood and his junior officers. All they could do was carry out the tactics assigned above, silently advancing and defending their positions. However, these days are different from a while ago, Trode and they have received a lot fewer tasks, and many troops are like this, which makes many teams start to wonder if their strategy has changed. However, the tone at the top was very tight, and the officers at the lower levels were all because they were preparing to carry out a major surprise attack on the enemy's rear, but they began to act cautiously because they were in front of the enemy formation.

However, this perception began to change when they began to defend the front line in Trode, and for two or three days in a row, they advanced only a few kilometers. This is already too cautious, even if it is a carpet sweep, it is not such a slow progress at all.

Trode was also speculating at this time, whether Anselm had done something at this time, and after analyzing Anselm's person, he felt that this guess was very probable, he thought that Anselm was afraid that his troops would suffer too much losses and slowed down, but why did even the friendly troops slow down, could it be that Anselm had already persuaded the commander of the friendly army? The division commander was obviously used to check and balance Anselm, and he should not easily agree to Anselm's 'unreasonable demand' that would disrupt the big rhythm, but the truth told Trode that his conjecture was largely correct. Thinking of Anselm's ability to such a degree, Trood had to admire it, but he couldn't have known that Anselm was able to block his position as division commander in order to keep these soldiers under him, and then the latter never thought of really handing over the 47th Division, but this spirit did reach the hearts of those commanders who were fighting on the other side.

The task of defending the position was rather boring at first, mainly because the Soviets had no intention of attacking the two German troops, or perhaps they thought that there was still a slight chance that the Germans of these two divisions would get into their pockets and wait. But in any case, there was basically nothing that Trode and his guards on the front line could do other than push forward a little distance at an extremely slow pace.

Of course, there are still some sporadic and interesting things. On one occasion, some Soviets attacked their positions in Trode, and although it was a surprise attack, the Soviets did not take advantage of the strong German line, and when they saw this, they fled in a hurry. As for why they said 'escape', it was because they retreated in a completely undisciplined manner, and if Trode and they caught up in one go, they didn't know how many troops they would have to destroy. However, the above has been repeatedly ordered, for all attacks and harassments, there must be no excessive pursuit, and this degree, the scope of the set is also extremely small, and it can even be directly explained that the pursuit is not allowed.

Five days passed in this way, and the Soviet army couldn't bear it anymore when it saw such a grinding German army, so they immediately mobilized their troops, preparing to eat the two German divisions surrounded by the front line while withstanding the pressure. And it was from this time that the battle of Trood really began...... (To be continued.) )
