Stalingrad 42 Breakout Group Zhuravlev

[Plain Ian]

I continue to play the "Russian game" with futile attacks and assaults with my KV-1's. I take out one more gun with fire and another with an assault which disrupts the attacking unit. (2/133rd) 

The 396th clanks off into the darkness and reaches Mukovkin. The rest of the 182nd Tank Bde arrive to join it.

The 3/22nd gives up its rear area duties and raaces forward to join the rest of the Bde.

At Osinovka another Russian bumbling attack is slowly forming. The 378th discovers the German infantry have withdrawn to occupy the southern half of the town. We await the 1/893rd.

At Nizhne German artillery is heavy and disrupts attacks on the town. 

The 2/884th is sent west but the Germans have secured their flanks.
