Byelorussia - Part II

Commander, Operation Barbarossa has started at top gear. The Soviets have been crashed everywhere and we're surrounding enemy's armies one by one. Many generals believe that victory is near, and the Fuhrer hisself told us that the Red Army is about to collapse. What really comes from the Front is a little different, mein general: the more Russians we kill the more they come against us. It seems that the Stalin's empire can rely on infinite reserves of men! So expect endless, almost suicide counterattacks by the Soviets during your drive to Smolensk: they only have the goal to slow your advance. Minsk have already been captured, but Stavka believes that Byelorussia is still worth the sacrifice of many divisions. Then seize Bobruisk, cross the Berezina River and give the Soviets what they are looking for!
