Stalingrad 42 Breakout Group Zhuravlev

[Plain Ian]

In the south he counters my moves by the 163d and reinforces the hex I failed to take last turn. He keeps the two disrupted units (305th infantry/113th recon) in the front line. He must have a unit behind?



It looks like he intends to hold on to Osinovka and sacrifice a company. It is a VP hex. My AA Rgt takes a gun off of him. 
At Nizhnyaya he has mounted a rescue attempt. No point in assaulting now?



Not much to see. He retreats at Mukovkin but reinforces the AT unit which has recovered from Disruption!!! Maybe their Iron Crosses 2nd Class have arrived! Possibly the Marders are close by hiding in the dark?
