Turn 9:
The surrounding of Rzhev has been accomplished. After helping to create the pocket, 3rd PanzerGroup has been hastily redeployed westward, in some instances across the Dvina. The Mot SS Div has made a remarkable countermarch from north of Vyazma towards Velikie Luki. Most importantly, all Soviet forces north and west of river Dvina are supposed to be isolated, and my objective for the last turn is therefore threefold:
a) To force the capitulation of the Rzhev garrison
b) To take Velikie Luki by a coup de main. As forces defending the city are isolated, the capture of the city seems more a question of MP available than of force brute
c) To force the surrender of the Soviet divisions facing my army in the general region of Vitebsk. In preparation for this, I have eliminated his foothold south of the Dvina, west of Vitebsk, and I created my own, north of the river, with a reserve Division of 2nd PanzerGroup, which was redirected from its scheduled mission of relieving the forces just east of Smolensk. Air recon has showed that there are no significant forces behind that Soviet screen opposite Vitebsk.
