[182], On 21 June, at 13:00 Army Group North received the codeword Düsseldorf, indicating Barbarossa would commence the next morning, and passed down its own codeword, Dortmund. [361] The political vacuum left in the eastern half of the continent was filled by the USSR when Stalin secured his territorial prizes of 1944–1945 and firmly placed his Red Army in Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, Poland, Czechoslovakia, and the eastern half of Germany. Excludes an additional 395,799 who were deemed unfit for service due to non-combat causes, transported out of their Army Group sectors for treatment, and treated in divisional/local medical facilities. "[192] Later the same morning, Hitler proclaimed to his colleagues, "Before three months have passed, we shall witness a collapse of Russia, the like of which has never been seen in history. [352] Historian Hannes Heer relates that in the world of the eastern front, where the German army equated Russia with Communism, everything was "fair game"; thus, rape went unreported unless entire units were involved. Es gab aber einen Vorgängerbau an dieser Stelle. Fifteen of 16 army commanders, 50 of the 57 corps commanders, 154 of the 186 divisional commanders, and 401 of 456 colonels were killed, and many other officers were dismissed. After Germany launched Barbarossa on 22 June, German aircraft used Finnish air bases to attack Soviet positions. He was elected King of Germany at Frankfurt on 4 March 1152 and crowned in Aachen on 9 March 1152. on 9 March 1152. Fall Barbarossa, 'tapaus Barbarossa') oli Saksan Neuvostoliittoon vuonna 1941 tekemän hyökkäyksen koodinimi. [230][231], Finland was divided into two operational zones. Der Kyffhäuser ist ein bekanntes Wandergebiet. 1994 wurde aus den Kreisen Artern und Sondershausen der Kyffhäuserkreis gebildet. [118][89] Army Group South was to strike the heavily populated and agricultural heartland of Ukraine, taking Kiev before continuing eastward over the steppes of southern USSR to the Volga with the aim of controlling the oil-rich Caucasus. See for instance the involvement of Latvian and Ukrainian forces in killing Jews cited by historian, Raul Hilberg. A battle ensued in which the Soviets were hammered with tanks, artillery, and aerial bombardment. Im Zentrum befindet sich das Rathsfeld. Hitler believed that Baku's oil resources were essential for the survival of the Third Reich, as a dearth of oil resources was a vulnerability for Germany's military. [325] Article 82 of the convention specified that "In case, in time of war, one of the belligerents is not a party to the Convention, its provisions shall nevertheless remain in force as between the belligerents who are parties thereto. [282] The Soviet 3rd and 13th Armies were now encircled. Neither Hitler nor the General Staff anticipated a long campaign lasting into the winter, and therefore adequate preparations, such as the distribution of warm clothing and winterization of vehicles and lubricants, were not made.[82]. [101] This fact aside, the Soviets did not entirely overlook the threat of their German neighbor. zu Beginn des 18. Im Februar 2008 hat sich in Bad Frankenhausen eine Bürgerinitiative Kyffhäuserwald gebildet, um gegen die vermehrten und großflächigen Abholzungen auf dem Kyffhäuser vorzugehen. [155] Furthermore, in the autumn of 1939, the Soviets disbanded their mechanized corps and partly dispersed their tanks to infantry divisions;[156] but following their observation of the German campaign in France, in late-1940 they began to reorganize most of their armored assets back into mechanized corps with a target strength of 1,031 tanks each. Die Kirche St. Martini im Ortsteil Altendorf aus dem 11. Collective punishment was authorized against partisan attacks; if a perpetrator could not be quickly identified, then burning villages and mass executions were considered acceptable reprisals. Nevertheless, the German High Command began planning an invasion of the Soviet Union in July 1940 (under the codename Operation Otto), which Adolf Hitler authorized on 18 December 1940. The Finnish attack was launched on 10 July. Das Fehlen von Wald resultiert aus einem Mangel an flachem Grundwasser im gipshaltigen, stark verkarsteten Untergrund. Germany's allies, in total, provided a significant number of troops and material to the front. [200][201] In contrast, Soviet artillery observers based at the border area had been under the strictest instructions not to open fire on German aircraft prior to the invasion. At Kharkov, the fourth largest city in the Soviet Union, food was provided only to the small number of civilians who worked for the Germans, with the rest designated to slowly starve. [191], In Germany, on the morning of 22 June, Nazi propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels announced the invasion to the waking nation in a radio broadcast with Hitler's words: "At this moment a march is taking place that, for its extent, compares with the greatest the world has ever seen. This became the basis for all subsequent Soviet war plans and the deployment of their armed forces in preparation for the German invasion. On 6 July, the Soviets launched a massive counter-attack using the V and VII Mechanized Corps of the 20th Army,[235] which collided with the German 39th and 47th Panzer Corps in a battle where the Red Army lost 832 tanks of the 2,000 employed during five days of ferocious fighting. [354] Historian Birgit Beck emphasizes that military decrees, which served to authorize wholesale brutality on many levels, essentially destroyed the basis for any prosecution of sexual offenses committed by German soldiers in the East. Oktober 2020 um 14:31 Uhr bearbeitet. Teile dieses Schutzgebietes stimmen mit den oben genannten Schutzgebieten überein.[18]. Heinrich Heine persiflierte die Barbarossa-Sehnsucht in Deutschland. [150] Around 11,000 tanks were in the western military districts that faced the German invasion force. The battle lasted for four days, ending in the defeat of the Soviet tank units. [276] Petrozavodsk, the capital city of the Karelo-Finnish SSR, fell on 1 October. Slowed by winter's onset they nevertheless continued to advance slowly during the following weeks. [281], The first blow took the Soviets completely by surprise when the 2nd Panzer Group, returning from the south, took Oryol, just 121 km (75 mi) south of the Soviet first main defense line. [334] Although the majority of German soldiers accepted these crimes as justified due to Nazi propaganda, which depicted the Red Army as Untermenschen, a few prominent German officers openly protested about them. [337], Organized crimes against civilians, including women and children, were carried out on a huge scale by the German police and military forces, as well as the local collaborators. Facing the Germans were the 5th, 16th, 30th, 43rd, 49th, and 50th Soviet Armies. [263] However, the push over the last 10 km (6.2 mi) proved very slow and casualties mounted. On 30 March 1941 the Barbarossa decree declared that the war would be one of extermination and advocated the eradication of all political and intellectual elites. von Schwaben. The leadership of the Wehrmacht paid little attention to politics, culture, and the considerable industrial capacity of the Soviet Union, in favour of a very narrow military view. [217], On 2 July, the southern section of Army Group South – the Romanian 3rd and 4th Armies, alongside the German 11th Army – invaded Soviet Moldavia, which was defended by the Southern Front. [83] Nazi policy aimed to destroy the Soviet Union as a political entity in accordance with the geopolitical Lebensraum ideals for the benefit of future generations of the "Nordic master race". [38] Following the invasion, Wehrmacht officers told their soldiers to target people who were described as "Jewish Bolshevik subhumans", the "Mongol hordes", the "Asiatic flood", and the "Red beast". Worauf sein Haupt er stützt. Der Kyffhäuser ist der zentrale Punkt einer Sage der Bergentrückung, in der sich der über Jahrhunderte populäre Volksglaube an die Rückkehr eines Friedenskaisers ausdrückt. [138], Beginning in July 1940, the Red Army General Staff developed war plans that identified the Wehrmacht as the most dangerous threat to the Soviet Union, and that in the case of a war with Germany, the Wehrmacht's main attack would come through the region north of the Pripyat Marshes into Belorussia,[139][123] which later proved to be correct. Hier mehr erfahren! [186] Roughly three million soldiers of the Wehrmacht went into action and faced slightly fewer Soviet troops at the border. According to German Army medical reports (including Army Norway):[17], Operation Barbarossa (German: Unternehmen Barbarossa) was the code name for the Axis invasion of the Soviet Union, which started on Sunday, 22 June 1941, during World War II. [315], By 1943, Soviet armaments production was fully operational and increasingly outproducing the German war economy. Ein weiteres sportliches Ereignis ist der Kyffhäuser-Berglauf. 6 km breiten Goldene Aue genannten Niederung der Helme, die ihn vom Unterharz trennt. [33] Hitler claimed in Mein Kampf that Germany's destiny was to "turn to the East" as it did "six hundred years ago" (see Ostsiedlung). Dieser Text wurde zweimal anhand der Quelle Korrektur gelesen. Hält er verzaubert sich. [345] Thousands of Soviets were deported to Germany to be used as slave labor beginning in 1942. Hälfte des 12. [86] Hitler and his generals disagreed on where Germany should focus its energy. [184] At around 03:15 on 22 June 1941, the Axis Powers commenced the invasion of the Soviet Union with the bombing of major cities in Soviet-occupied Poland[185] and an artillery barrage on Red Army defences on the entire front. So muß ich auch noch schlafen Friedrich Barbarossa wurde ungefähr im Jahr 1120 geboren. Jahrhunderts, Rottleben mit seiner Kirche St Johannes, Bendeleben mit dem Ueckermannschen und dem Neuen Schloss, Schlosspark, Rokoko Orangerie von 1770 und der Kirche St. Pankratius, Steinthaleben mit dem alten Pfarrhaus und der Kirche St Dionysius und Badra mit der Kirche St. Spiritus: sämtliche Dörfer mit ihren teils sehr alten Fachwerkhäusern, alten Scheunen und kleinen Dorfkirchen. Die Barbarossa-Sage wurde in dieser Zeit des Umbruchs zur deutschen Nationalsage. The German forces fared worse, with deep snow further hindering equipment and mobility. Und sieh, ob noch die Raben In their calculations, they concluded that there was little danger of a large-scale retreat of the Red Army into the Russian interior, as it could not afford to give up the Baltic states, Ukraine, or the Moscow and Leningrad regions, all of which were vital to the Red Army for supply reasons and would thus, have to be defended. Historian Victor Davis Hanson reports that before the war came to its conclusion, the Soviets had an artillery advantage over the Germans of seven-to-one and that artillery production was the only area where they doubled U.S. and British manufacturing output. [220] By the night of 25 June, the Soviet counterattack was defeated, and the commander of the 6th Cavalry Corps was captured. 196 m), am südlichen Ortsrand von, Badraer Schweiz- Schlossberg- Solwiesen: mit 5,415 km, Badraer Lehde- Grosse Eller, mit 0,819 km. Field expedient general courts were established to deal with civilians spreading rumors and military deserters. Includes only Finnish casualties in Northern Finland during Operation Silver Fox. [139] Stalin disagreed, and in October he authorized the development of new plans that assumed a German attack would focus on the region south of Pripyat Marshes towards the economically vital regions in Ukraine. [182] Air-raids were conducted as far as Kronstadt near Leningrad, Ismail in Bessarabia, and Sevastopol in the Crimea. Bis auf den Wolweda-Bach sind alle genannten Bäche linksseitige direkte Zuflüsse der Unstrut, in die sie allesamt östlich des Kyffhäusers bei Artern einmünden. [351] Whole units were occasionally involved in the crime with upwards of one-third of the instances being gang rape. Die hier bisher nicht direkt genannten Dörfer Sittendorf mit seiner spätromanischen Kirchturm St. Lorenz aus dem 12. Er einem Knaben winkt. "[192] Hitler also addressed the German people via the radio, presenting himself as a man of peace, who reluctantly had to attack the Soviet Union. He also personally conducted an aerial inspection of the Minsk-Białystok pocket on 30 June and concluded that his panzer group was not needed to contain it, since Hermann Hoth's 3rd Panzer Group was already involved in the Minsk pocket. [3] Historisch existieren auch die Schreibweisen Kiffhäuser und Kyfshäuser. [99] Additional Luftwaffe operations included numerous aerial surveillance missions over Soviet territory many months before the attack. Then the Finnish territories east of Lake Ladoga were to be recaptured before the advance along the Karelian Isthmus, including the recapture of Viipuri, commenced. [81] It is speculated that this was passed on to General Georg Thomas, who had produced reports that predicted a net economic drain for Germany in the event of an invasion of the Soviet Union unless its economy was captured intact and the Caucasus oilfields seized in the first blow; Thomas revised his future report to fit Hitler's wishes. [169], Stavka Reserve Armies (second strategic echelon)[178], Total number of Romanian Divisions: 14[180], At around 01:00 on 22 June 1941, the Soviet military districts in the border area[n] were alerted by NKO Directive No. [194], The initial momentum of the German ground and air attack completely destroyed the Soviet organizational command and control within the first few hours, paralyzing every level of command from the infantry platoon to the Soviet High Command in Moscow. Jahrhundert mit Umbau von 1357; als romanische Wehrkirche wohl eins der ältesten Kirchen überhaupt in der Goldenen Aue. The 1st Panzer Group then went south, while the 17th Army struck east and trapped three Soviet armies near Uman. The Army of Karelia held a numerical advantage versus the Soviet defenders of the 7th Army and 23rd Army, so it could advance swiftly. Kleist's 1st Panzer Army took the Donbass region that same month. The two panzer armies now trapped four Soviet armies and parts of two others. [143] The second echelon was undetected by German intelligence until days after the invasion commenced, in most cases only when German ground forces bumped into them. Hitler, having realized that Germany's oil supply was "severely depleted",[313] aimed to capture the oil fields of Baku in an offensive, codenamed Case Blue. Über den Wolsberg gibt es wie vielerorts die Sage, dass hier Kaiser Barbarossa schläft oder dort Zwerge gewohnt haben. [130][131] Therefore, although about 75 percent of all the officers had been in their position for less than one year at the start of the German invasion of 1941, many of the short tenures can be attributed not only to the purge, but also to the rapid increase in creation of military units. Bis zum 16. On 23 November, once World War II had already started, Hitler declared that "racial war has broken out and this war shall determine who shall govern Europe, and with it, the world". Seit 1979 treffen sich Teilnehmer im April in Bad Frankenhausen. The Germans had confidently expected a quick collapse of Soviet resistance as in Poland, but the Red Army absorbed the German Wehrmacht's strongest blows and bogged it down in a war of attrition for which the Germans were unprepared. Eine Attraktion am Kyffhäuser ist das jährlich ausgetragene Tourenwagen-Bergrennen, bei dem eine 3,8 km lange Strecke am Nordhang zwischen Kelbra und dem Kulpenberg vom Forsthaus zum Jungfern-Brunnen befahren wird. 1, issued late on the night of 21 June. Operaatio Barbarossa (saks. Nonetheless, the Red Army proved capable of countering the German offensives, particularly as the Germans began experiencing irreplaceable shortages in manpower, armaments, provisions, and fuel. [98] In preparation for the attack, Hitler had secretly moved upwards of 3 million German troops and approximately 690,000 Axis soldiers to the Soviet border regions. [240] Hitler by now had lost faith in battles of encirclement as large numbers of Soviet soldiers had escaped the pincers. [162] Suvorov's thesis was fully or partially accepted by a limited number of historians, including Valeri Danilov, Joachim Hoffmann, Mikhail Meltyukhov, and Vladimir Nevezhin, and attracted public attention in Germany, Israel, and Russia. In addition, the Pripyat Marshes and the Carpathian Mountains posed a serious challenge to the army group's northern and southern sections respectively. Dieser Brunnen wurde ohne Zuhilfenahme eines Lots abgeteuft, der Vortrieb ist leicht nach Norden abgedriftet. [27] Mass shootings and gassing operations, carried out by the Nazis or willing collaborators,[g] murdered over a million Soviet Jews as part of the Holocaust.[29]. Trapped between their pincers were three Soviet armies. [255] With the onset of bad weather in October, the Luftwaffe was on several occasions forced to halt nearly all aerial operations. The German units had great difficulty dealing with the Arctic conditions. Germany therefore sought to provoke the Soviet Union into an attack on Finland. By the beginning of September, Finland had restored its pre-Winter War borders. Herzog von Schwaben, von 1152 bis 1190 römisch-deutscher König und von 1155 bis 1190 Kaiser des römisch-deutschen Reiches . [53] Racial motivations were central to Nazi ideology and played a key role in planning for Operation Barbarossa since both Jews and communists were considered equivalent enemies of the Nazi state. [196] At around 07:15, Stalin issued NKO Directive No. Unternehmen Barbarossa (ursprünglich Fall Barbarossa) war der Deckname des nationalsozialistischen Regimes für den Überfall der deutschen Wehrmacht auf die Sowjetunion am 22. [12] Hitler later declared to some of his generals, "If I had known about the Russian tank strength in 1941 I would not have attacked". The plan had two parts: the Kleine Planung ("small plan"), which covered actions to be taken during the war, and the Große Planung ("large plan"), which covered policies after the war was won, to be implemented gradually over 25 to 30 years. [202] The Luftwaffe reportedly destroyed 1,489 aircraft on the first day of the invasion[203] and over 3,100 during the first three days. Dieses Schutzgebiet gibt es bereits seit 1978 und steht unter der Ramsar-Konvention. Er hat im Schloß verborgen [147] While transportation remained insufficient for Red Army forces, when Operation Barbarossa kicked off, they possessed some 33,000 pieces of artillery, a number far greater than the Germans had at their disposal. [148][p], The Soviet Union had some 23,000 tanks available of which only 14,700 were combat-ready. Die Sage änderte im Laufe der Jahrhunderte immer wieder ein wenig ihr Bild. The NKVD worked with commissars and military commanders to scour possible withdrawal routes of soldiers retreating without military authorization. [268] Despite the exhaustion and losses facing some German units (upwards of 75 percent of their men) from the intense fighting, the massive defeat of the Soviets at Kiev and the Red Army losses during the first three months of the assault contributed to the German assumption that Operation Typhoon (the attack on Moscow) could still succeed. William Shirer argued that Hitler's Balkan Campaign had delayed the commencement of Barbarossa by several weeks and thereby jeopardized it. Das Kyffhäusergebirge ist geologisch eine Pultscholle, die vorzugsweise entlang von Störungen an ihren nordlichen Rändern aus dem Untergrund herausgehoben wurde. [283], The German government now publicly predicted the imminent capture of Moscow and convinced foreign correspondents of an impending Soviet collapse. Außerdem ist der Kyffhäuser ein Ziel für Motorradfahrer. [104] Historian Thomas B. Buell indicates that Finland and Romania, which weren't involved in initial German planning, needed additional time to prepare to participate in the invasion. Nach anderen Versionen der Sage schläft der Kaiser im Trifels, im Untersberg oder im Ätna (auf Sizilien). [130] But these large armoured formations were unwieldy, and moreover they were spread out in scattered garrisons, with their subordinate divisions up to 100 kilometres (62 miles) apart. [295], On 2 December, part of the 258th Infantry Division advanced to within 24 km (15 mi) of Moscow. Ablagerungsraum war die sogenannte Saale-Senke, ein NE-SW-streichendes Sedimentbecken am Nordrand des Variszischen Gebirges, das sich vom heutigen Fläming bis zum heutigen Thüringer Wald zog. [131], In the Soviet Union, speaking to his generals in December 1940, Stalin mentioned Hitler's references to an attack on the Soviet Union in Mein Kampf and Hitler's belief that the Red Army would need four years to ready itself. By 16 July, the first Finnish units reached Lake Ladoga at Koirinoja, achieving the goal of splitting the Soviet forces. Despite these actions the Finnish government insisted via diplomatic channels that they remained a neutral party, but the Soviet leadership already viewed Finland as an ally of Germany. [300][301] Weather conditions had largely grounded the Luftwaffe, preventing large-scale air operations. Er lebt darin noch jetzt; Over the course of the operation, about three million personnel of the Axis powers—the largest invasion force in the history of warfare—invaded the western Soviet Union along a 2,900-kilometer (1,800 mi) front, with 600,000 motor vehicles and over 600,000 horses for non-combat operations. [101] One plausible reason given for the Soviet hesitation to return fire was Stalin's initial belief that the assault was launched without Hitler's authorization. [65] They also claimed that the Red Army was preparing to attack the Germans, and their own invasion was thus presented as a pre-emptive strike. [253] As the Germans eliminated the pocket, the tanks turned north and crossed the Dnieper. [122] The official plan for Barbarossa assumed that the army groups would be able to advance freely to their primary objectives simultaneously, without spreading thin, once they had won the border battles and destroyed the Red Army's forces in the border area. [288][289] In little over a month, the Soviets organized eleven new armies that included 30 divisions of Siberian troops. Das Jagdschloss ist ein Dreiflügelbau mit einem Corps de Logis und hat eine Wohnfläche und Nebennutzfläche von etwa 5000 m², 168 Fenster und 80 Türen. [244] Convinced by Hitler's argument, Guderian returned to his commanding officers as a convert to the Führer's plan, which earned him their disdain. The Nazis deliberately starved to death, or otherwise killed, 3.3 million Soviet prisoners of war, and a vast number of civilians, as the "Hunger Plan" worked to solve German food shortages and exterminate the Slavic population through starvation. Siehe auch Friedrich I. Barbarossa Artikel in der Wikipedia Eintrag in der GND: Bild Bearbeitungsstand fertig Fertig! Askey 2014, p. 178. [126][127][128] Of the five Marshals of the Soviet Union appointed in 1935, only Kliment Voroshilov and Semyon Budyonny survived Stalin's purge. Er eröffnete den Deutsch-Sowjetischen Krieg. Significant amounts of Soviet territory were lost along with Red Army forces as a result; it took several days before Stalin comprehended the magnitude of the calamity. [216] On 30 June Stavka ordered the remaining forces of the Southwestern Front to withdraw to the Stalin Line, where it would defend the approaches to Kiev. The northern section, which contained the army group's only panzer group, was in southern Poland right next to Army Group Center, and the southern section was in Romania. The order stipulated swift, severe measures against anyone inciting panic or displaying cowardice. Erhalten sind aber das Erfurter Tor und dem oben genannten tiefen Brunnen. Alle hundert Jahre wacht der Kaiser auf, und wenn dann noch immer Raben um den Berg kreisen, schläft er für ein weiteres Jahrhundert. But Brauchitsch, upholding Hitler's instruction, and Halder, unwillingly going along with it, opposed Bock's order. [254], By August, as the serviceability and the quantity of the Luftwaffe's inventory steadily diminished due to combat, demand for air support only increased as the VVS recovered. [96][97], The Germans had begun massing troops near the Soviet border even before the campaign in the Balkans had finished. Ursächlich für die Hebung war, ebenso wie für die Hebung der übrigen deutschen Mittelgebirge, die Fernwirkung der jüngeren Phasen der Alpenbildung in Kreidezeit und Tertiär.

[349] The Wehrmacht planned to seal off Leningrad, starve out the population, and then demolish the city entirely. Februar 2008 zusammen mit Kinderzeichnungen und einer Materialsammlung, die den Kahlschlag an verschiedenen Stellen dokumentiert, dem damaligen Thüringer Ministerpräsidenten Dieter Althaus übergeben wurde. Der Süden entwässert zur Kleinen Wipper und der Westen zum Badraer Bach/Thaleber Bach, der Hauptzubringer zur Kleinen Wipper. [245], On 29 June Army Norway launched its effort to capture Murmansk in a pincer attack. Es handelt sich dabei um variszisch mittelgradig metamorph überprägte (Amphibolitfazies) altpaläozoische Sedimente und teils metamorphe, teils nur tektonisch deformierte unterkarbonische plutonische Gesteine. Federico I Hohenstaufen, meglio noto come Federico Barbarossa (Waiblingen, 1122 circa – Saleph, 10 giugno 1190), è stato imperatore del Sacro Romano Impero e re d'Italia.Salì al trono di Germania il 4 marzo 1152, succedendo allo zio Corrado III, e fu incoronato Imperatore il 18 giugno 1155. Of the AFVs, Askey reports there were 301 assault guns, 257 tank destroyers and self-propelled guns, 1,055 armored half-tracks, 1,367 armored cars, 92 combat engineer and ammunition transport vehicles. The Wehrmacht's diminished forces could no longer attack along the entire Eastern Front, and subsequent operations to retake the initiative and drive deep into Soviet territory—such as Case Blue in 1942 and Operation Citadel in 1943—eventually failed, which resulted in the Wehrmacht's retreat and collapse. [327] A memorandum from 16 July 1941, recorded by Martin Bormann, quotes Hitler saying, "The giant [occupied] area must naturally be pacified as quickly as possible; this will happen at best if anyone who just looks funny should be shot". Units were sent into combat with no arrangements in place for refueling, ammunition resupply, or personnel replacement. [238] The German troops had used their initial supplies, and General Bock quickly came to the conclusion that not only had the Red Army offered stiff opposition, but German difficulties were also due to the logistical problems with reinforcements and provisions. Ein Wintermärchen. Zusammenhängende Eichenwälder gibt es auf dem Kyffhäuserburgberg, dem Berg der Rothenburg und dem nordwestlichen Teil der Altendorfer Klippen, mit vielen wertvollen Altbeständen, aber auch Wiederaufforstungen mit jungen Eichen. Er spricht im Schlaf zum Knaben: [236] The Germans defeated this counterattack thanks largely to the coincidental presence of the Luftwaffe's only squadron of tank-busting aircraft. [65] On 17 June, Reich Main Security Office (RSHA) chief Reinhard Heydrich briefed around thirty to fifty Einsatzgruppen commanders on "the policy of eliminating Jews in Soviet territories, at least in general terms". The 2nd Panzer Group would attack Tula and then close on Moscow from the south. [1] Es liegt größtenteils im Thüringer Kyffhäuserkreis und reicht am Nordrand geringfügig in den sachsen-anhaltischen Landkreis Mansfeld-Südharz hinein. Albeit reinforced by fresh reserve troops, heavy losses elsewhere on the front meant that the Soviet defenders of the 7th Army were not able to resist the Finnish advance. Juni 1941 im Zweiten Weltkrieg. Nowhere was the Soviet levée en masse spirit stronger in resisting the Germans than at Leningrad where reserve troops and freshly improvised Narodnoe Opolcheniye units, consisting of worker battalions and even schoolboy formations, joined in digging trenches as they prepared to defend the city. [302] Newly created Soviet units near Moscow now numbered over 500,000 men, and on 5 December, they launched a massive counterattack as part of the Soviet winter counteroffensive. [256] By December, the VVS had matched the Luftwaffe and was even pressing to achieve air superiority over the battlefields. [195] Moscow not only failed to grasp the magnitude of the catastrophe that confronted the Soviet forces in the border area, but Stalin's first reaction was also disbelief. Die Täler und Auen, in denen diese Gewässer fließen, trennen das Kyffhäusergebirge physisch nach Westen von der Windleite und nach Süden vom östlichsten Abschnitt der Hainleite. [71], On 5 December 1940, Hitler received the final military plans for the invasion on which the German High Command had been working since July 1940 under the codename "Operation Otto". [305][306] Attempting to explain matters, Hitler issued Directive N. 39, which cited the early onset of winter and the severe cold as the reason for the German failure,[307] whereas the main reason was the German military unpreparedness for such a giant enterprise. [222] The Germans destroyed the Soviet 3rd and 10th Armies while inflicting serious losses on the 4th, 11th and 13th Armies, and reported to have captured 324,000 Soviet troops, 3,300 tanks, 1,800 artillery pieces.
