SE of Minsk, June 28th 1944: Gen Pliyev's cavalry/mechanized group had been released with orders to advance quickly to the west to seize crossings over the river Neimen. This meant brushing aside any remnants of 9th Army, which had been giving ground and bending under the pressure, then rapidly advancing to not allow the Germans time to reinforce the area. A lot of this was swampy woodland terrain, requiring the Soviets to learn, and practise, new techniques to get men and equipment over this marshland.
