Chapter 54: Marshal Geron is Skilled at Escaping (Supplement 45/84)

July 11th, 2300 hours, at the Ante Kazarlia Front Army Headquarters.

After circulating the situation briefing for the day, Pavlov was the first to speak, "We can now confirm that the enemy is in full retreat."

Wang Zhong, "We attacked before the encirclement was completed because we were afraid they would run. So how much longer until the two clamps close?"

"The encirclement should be completed by tomorrow, but the enemy's resistance is fierce. Moreover, aerial reconnaissance indicates that a large number of troops are now rushing towards Shepetovka through the gap in the encirclement."

As he spoke, Pavlov picked a photo from the table and handed it to Wang Zhong.

Wang Zhong glanced at the photo and then threw it back on the table, "Deploy the Air Force to bomb as much as possible and delay the enemy as much as possible."
