Fafnir's troops rushed all the way to their destination, and news came from the front that "they have joined forces with Army Group South and encircled the Southwestern Front in Kiev." But Eckert remained reticent and even more cold and disgusted with the SS and Nazi members he met.

After they joined the encirclement and annihilation of the Soviet Red Army in the Kiev area, Fafnir drove the captured KV2 to crush its maker and previous user, and it was very pleasant to watch one after another 150 grenades blossom in the Soviet infantry groups, on artillery positions, and on tanks. The Soviets, like the Germans, did not have a good way to deal with the crushing KV2, and when it was on its own side, it was really hateful when it came to the enemy's side.

In September, the Battle of Kiev ended. Fafnier met many old friends on the battlefield, Dick Joker Carr still commanded his No. 4 tank, even with a few more death circles on the barrel; the big man Yang was already a squad leader, Fafnier saw this guy in the field hospital, and was stabbed in the arm by the Soviets' bayonet, but he shoveled out 3~The heads of the four Russians; the corporal of the combat engineer Shotek Haute Jane was also spitting fire, and it was estimated that another ankh was waving to him; Belvigan was busy painting his car No. 3 with a new circle of death, and received his own chariot assault badge like Fafnier; Juncker's No. 3 was crushed by the Soviets' T34, and he was wounded, and half of the crew members died, but fortunately, several tanks were broken, and the Iron Cross and the Battle Wounded Medal were in hand; Commander O'Brien did not reap any good, and his 37 gun was now scolded as a stepping stone, and no one could move it, and was preparing to replace it with a 75-mm anti-tank gun; Corporal Dornberger was still the gunner, but he also fished a second-class with the commander, but this young man collected a lot of jewelry and tried to mail it to his girlfriend, and as for Dirk, the guy who drove the No. 3 assault gun, he destroyed a lot of artillery positions along the way, and it was also the time to be complacent.

Fafnir knew very well that the bitter battle was not yet to come, and that the difficult days were yet to come. Then he and his companions again turned to the direction of Moscow to fight.

Along the way, many Soviet troops put up extremely resolute resistance to them, even if there were only a few anti-tank guns, they never retreated, and dared to set up positions in front of the German steel torrent to resist, even if it was to delay the German attack for a few minutes. Fafnir and they felt that the resistance of the Soviet army had obviously begun to increase, and the Soviet army, which had been beaten and confused at the beginning, began to regain its organization, and the ability of infantry, tanks, and artillery to work together was obviously strengthened, and it was no longer a one-sided massacre by the German army.

On the Belev and Mtsensk fronts, Favnir's tank unit encountered a hard-nosed man, a mixed infantry and tank unit of the Soviet Red Guards.

"Shoot!!Fast! Armor-piercing shells quickly reload!!" Both sides of the battle shouted loudly in their own languages, the Soviet Red Army tanks were outnumbered by the Germans, but they still had the courage to attack! The battle began at 1,500 meters, and the German tanks took the lead in attacking with the advantage of optical aiming. But Soviet tanks were much more organized than they had been a few weeks ago, approaching German tanks at high speed and engaging in close combat. The tank guns on the German tanks No. 3 and No. 4 failed again, both 50mm armor-piercing shells and 75mm grenades were bounced off by the thick inclined armor of the Soviets, while the German tanks carried limited special armor-piercing shells, so the entire formation was rushed by the Soviet T34. Fortunately, the T34 was not long in service, and the Soviet tankmen were not very skilled in operation and the run-in was not enough, and there were often breakdowns, so the Germans successfully repelled the Soviet Red Army in the end, but the losses in technical equipment were huge, and they had to stop and wait for the reserves.

Favinil lost his heavy tank, the captured KV2, which was a slow tank that repeatedly attracted Soviet fire, but was not broken. During the attack, the heavy tank suddenly smoked - the engine burst out, and at the same time the gearbox was damaged and had to be overhauled. Once again, they jumped out of the tank like groundhogs and ran for their lives, this time with less luck, and Faveniel was fine, but his signal man hung up, and one of his loaders was wounded. After he returned to his position, he had no new cars to drive, and most of the vehicles in the unit had to be repaired and resupplied with spare parts, especially the wheels, tracks, and gearboxes were seriously worn, and the suspension system was also flawed, so for at least a week, their troops could not use much tank strength to continue the attack. And the biggest enemy was not only the desperate resistance of the Soviet Red Army, the Russian autumn rain was abundant, the ground was muddy, the tanks often got stuck in the quagmire and had to be dragged out, and the infantry marched slowly: "This damn rain! This damn quagmire!" was the most common phrase spoken by the German soldiers.

A week later, Fafnir finally got a repaired Type 4 E and resumed the attack. Driving slowly in the mud, stopping from time to time to drag your own or friendly tanks out of the quagmire with a winch, the speed is much slower than before, and the fatigue level has skyrocketed, but fortunately, the Soviet army on the opposite side is the same, and their supply and technical weapons are not as good as the German army. It is entirely dependent on strong morale that it is gradually resisting. However, it could not resist the attack of the German army, and on October 23, the Battle of Bryansk ended, and most of the Soviet army was annihilated. On 10 October, Fafnier's troops broke through the Soviet defensive line after an arduous trek, and the whole army advanced rapidly, but the Soviet air force in the sky launched a concentrated assault. Fafnier kept driving his tanks into the woods to avoid air raids, and the Luftwaffe in the sky desperately strangled the Soviet air force flying like mosquitoes and shot them down one after another. The Soviet Red Army's air force ground attacks were ineffective and suffered heavy losses, but they also managed to delay the advance of the German ground tank forces - by one day.

On the 23rd, most of the Soviet troops on the Vecchiamar side were annihilated, and 670,000 Soviet troops were wiped out in two successive encirclement and annihilation battles, but the German army was also exhausted. Fafnir was fine, but he saw that his companions were exhausted, and the logistics and repairs were beginning to be overwhelmed, and the few friends who had been in high spirits the previous weeks were still in high spirits, but they could no longer hide their deep mental and physical exhaustion.

At the end of October, the Germans stopped their offensive due to the muddy ground and exhausted military forces. By this time, Moscow was already in sight

At the beginning of November, the weather turned cold overnight and the ground began to harden. The various units were also rested, and Fafnir and the others were ready to begin their offensive towards the Tula defensive positions.
