Original subtitles

THE BATTLE OF MOSCOW.

Germany - The Wolf's Lair 05 September 1941

Gentlemen. Today, we must discuss Directive Nr. 35

regarding the decisive operation and offensive against Moscow

It concerns the annihilation of the Russians before Winter arrives

The offensive will take place east of Smolensk by means

of a double encirclement in the region of Vyazma

After the encirclement and destruction of the enemy, which is vitally important

Army Group Center will be ordered to take Moscow

My Fuehrer! At last, my old yearning is being fulfilled:

starting an offensive against the bulk of the Russian troops

Hopefully, we'll continue to have good weather

since the necessary reserve units will not be available before the end of September

I suggest calling the operation "October Harvest"

set to finish on 07 November in Red Square

No, that'd be too great an honor for the Bolsheviks

We'll call it "Typhoon".

Part II: Typhoon

subtitles by: RAREFILMSANDMORECOM (Copyright 2017; All Rights Reserved)

For the attack on Moscow, the German High Command selected powerful forces

Not once during the Second World War

except during the campaign for Moscow, were three tank armies

1,800,000 men, 7,000 tanks and up to 2,000 airplanes put into action at once

On 30 September 1941, two days before the start of the general offensive

Guderian's tanks army attacked the left flank of the front at Bryansk

He was supported with every kind of plane available to Army Group Center

After powerful artillery and air assaults, German mechanized units broke

the tactical defense lines of the Bryansk Front and began to move on Orel

Moscow - General Staff 01 October 1941

Chief of Staff of the Red Army Marshal Shaposhnikov

You must save the situation!

Your mission is to prevent Guderian's armor from advancing on Orel

Within four to five days, you'll need to prepare the 1st Rifle Corps

From what I understand, there is no corps, except for its commanding officer!

You've understood correctly. Up to now, there isn't one

You are to make up your staff from the best officers available among the tank units

And consider which reserve units can be integrated into your corps in four days

Comrade Stalin is calling for General Lelushenko

For you, too, Boris Mijailovich.

The situation's changed abruptly

Guderian's already close to Orel

Your corps will need to be put together within two days, not five

Comrade Lelushenko, you must fly to Orel

and find out what's going on over there in person

Allow me to tell you my plans! - Go ahead.

It doesn't make sense to fly Orel; there are no troops there.

Give me command of the 36th Regiment of motorcycle troops

and the artillery school at Tula and I'll confront Guderian here.

I think we should accept his recommendation, Comrade Stalin

Fine. Don't let the enemy advance beyond Mtsensk - As ordered, Comrade Stalin

Mtsensk 03 October 1941

Whose tanks are these?

Who's asking? - General Lelushenko

Colonel Katukov, commander of the 4th Tank Brigade, at your service.

How many tanks do you have'? - Sixteen

Sixteen? Not so many.

Suburbs of Mtsensk 04 October 1941

Where shall we place the tanks, Colonel?

They'll attack the enemy's open flanks and smash them in a pincer movement

Agreed. That's a good idea. We'll put the tanks where we can ambush them best.

Over there. In the woods.

Artillery, fire!

Colonel, send in the tanks! - Yes sir!

A little more and the enemy will start retreating.

We don't have "a little more". We threw everything we had into the battle

A katyusha division's arrived

Captain Chumak, commander of a mortar division

I was told to provide you a salvo

Why so little? - It'll be enough.

You might want to warn the men in the forward lines, so they don't panic.

Take care of that! I've already heard about your katyushas

I heard the Germans shit their pants when you used them in Orsha. Show us what you got!

Tokyo 04 October 1941

Good morning, Mr. Ambassador - Good morning, Richard. What's up?

I need your advice, sir, as to which information we're able to give to the press

What's the most important news? - I'd stress our offensive against Moscow

Although it won't change a thing - That's unfortunately my opinion as well

The Japanese don't seem to care about our successes - Really?

I sent a message to Berlin explaining that Japan won't declare war on Russia

before the Spring of 1942.

That's the final decision of the Japanese government?

Yes, they will enter the war when we have it won.

I'm sorry, would you like some tea?

No, thank you, I have a press conference to attend

They're following me. I think our luck's starting to run out

Are you ready? - Perhaps we should hold off tonight, Richard

No, it's too important.

The text reads as follows: "There'll be no war this year"

"Ramzai, 04 October 1941."

I've assumed a great responsibility.

Now they have to believe me.

They can't have any doubts about me now. They can't.

That was the last transmission of Richard Sorge

Moscow - Supreme Command

05 October 1941 0300 hours

On 02 October, Army Group Center went on the offensive

Army Group Center, which is numerically superior to our forces

has advanced in the last 48 hours and is threatening the flanks of the entire Western Front

The situation's further complicated by the fact

that in the direction of Moscow, there are no strategic reserves to defend the capital. That's all

Germany's forces are way too strong to stop with the forces we have available

Unfortunately, some military leaders didn't live up to the events around them

They were confident of their bravery or class consciousness

But you need to be well-trained in military matters to repulse the enemy

They seem to lack expertise in military matters, especially in the technological field

What should we be doing differently? First

Things are improving on the Leningrad Front

I therefore recommend we call back Zhukov from Leningrad immediately

Second: We've received reliable reports that the Japanese won't attack in the Far East

So, some of our rifle divisions and all of our tanks can be withdrawn from there

and brought quickly and directly to Moscow.

Third: The Urban Committee of the Party must recruit more men for the People's Militia

The watchword'll be "Everything for the defense of Moscow!"

Moscow - Military Council for the Moscow Region

05 October 1941

Comrade Division Commissar!

Air recon has detected the movement of enemy tanks towards Yugnov

That's impossible! - The information is accurate.

A column of tanks with infantry has penetrated 15 miles into our lines.

The pilots were flying low and could clearly see the fascist crosses on the tanks

and received heavy anti-aircraft fire from the ground.

Is there no way they can be mistaken?

No, they're experienced pilots. They're not mistaken.

We'll have to consult with General Staff HQ

Marshal Shaposhnikov! - Shaposhnikov speaking.

Do you have any new information about the Western Front?

Nothing new.

They have no information.

In our rear, German tanks are advancing on Moscow with no one to oppose them

It'd be criminal to sound the alarm without confirming the veracity of the information

I must ask you to carry out this order as quickly and urgently as you can.

Send our best pilots. They're to fly low and confirm whose tanks and infantry they are

How far away are they?

The vanguard of the column is right outside Yugnov.

That's 120 miles from Moscow.

We must inform HQ!

Get me Marshal Shaposhnikov!

Have you still not gotten any reports about the Western Front?

What's with these calls? Why do you keep asking me the same thing?

Air recon reports the Germans are right outside Yugnov.

Is it possible your pilots may be mistaken?

No, they're not! - That's impossible!

We've received no such report!

Teleguin’? - Yes, Comrade Stalin.

Are you the one who told Shaposhnikov that there was a breakthrough at Yugnov?

Where did you get that information from and who's confirmed it?

The information was reported by our best pilots and then confirmed

What measures have you taken?

I ordered the personnel of two military schools and an academy into battle

Gather up even/one capable of fighting

This is my order for the military commanders of the district:

You're responsible to stop the enemy, no matter what the cost, in no more than five days!

Podolsk Infantry School

Comrade General!

Why don't the cadets have coats?

Supply officer!

Why aren't the cadets wearing coats?

We haven't been able to equip all the companies with Winter uniforms, Comrade General

Everyone is to have a coat by tomorrow! Understood?

Director of Podolsk Infantry School

Major General Smirnov

A group of enemy tanks has broken through the front lines

and is moving towards Moscow

You're our only hope

You must hold the Germans for three days. Only three days!

We're poorly armed and short of ammunition

but, despite that, we must be worthy of our traditions

and of the Red cadets who fought in the Civil War

We swear to do our duty!

We vow not to let the enemy approach Moscow!

We swear it! We swear it! We swear it!

From this moment on, you will obey my orders.

You will march out of Podolsk with gallantry, singing!

We will sing the old songs with gusto!

The sixth company will be in the vanguard.

Sixth company, listen to my order!

Sixth company: attention!

Right face!

Shoulder arms! Eyes forward, march!

Sing!

Remember! I remember the provincial city

peaceful, lost and sad.

The church and the market and its boulevards.

Couples would come and sometimes I saw

that well-known, dear silhouette

Blue beret, blue coat

The girl's poise hidden by a dark skirt

Oh, my fleeting romance!

Tania, Taniusha, my Tatiana.

Remember that hot summer?

Can we forget

the time we had to love?

Company, halt!

Halt! Where are you going? - What do you care?

I'm seizing this vehicle in the name of the high command

This truck belongs to the Executive Committee and those are my personal items

We need it for the front. Sorry!

Filippov! Unload the truck!

What's going on? What are they doing? Haven't you heard? I'm from the Executive Committee!

I understood; but you don't understand Russia. This is more important than rank.

That's how it is. Russia can only be understood with the soul

And you, papa, don't get it.

You're in for a big surprise

Vyazma 06 October 1941

Major General Nikitin, commander of the garrison at Vyazma

How are things? - There's panic in the city.

They say German tanks are on their way from Yugnov

and that we've no troops in Vyazma

Where are the authorities? - In the church. Get in! We'll drive there.

Popov, secretary of the Smolensk Regional Committee.

It'll be alright, Comrades. He's our new commander in chief.

Sorry to disappoint you. I'm the C-in-C, but I have no troops.

I was assured the 16th Army would be here with at least five divisions!

There are German tanks in the city! - From which direction?

I saw them from the belfry.

We must leave the city at once!

Comrade Commander, what are you doing?

You're taking off and leaving us to our fate?

We gave everything we had to the Red Army, down to the last shirt!

I'm an old soldier. I fought the Germans in the last war

We never left them to trample our land. And what are you doing now?

Forgive us, Father!

We will return. For sure.

Turn right!

Moscow 07 October 1941

The boss is sick with the flu

But he ordered me to take you straight to him.

I await your orders, Comrade Stalin

What's new in Leningrad?

The Germans are using less force in their attacks

They suffered heavy casualties in September

so now, they're digging in

Several enemy armored and motorized columns are leaving Leningrad and heading south

They are probably moving in the direction of Moscow.

Let me show you something!

We've run into a very difficult situation here

I can't reach the Western Front. I haven't a clue what's going on over there

We can't make a decision without knowing

where and with what forces the enemy will attack

and how our troops are doing in this section

Go to the Western Front and take a good look at how things are going!

Call me from there, regardless of the time. I'll be waiting for your report.

General Staff of the Western Front 08 October 1941

Why do your reports not notify Comrade Stalin about the actual situation at the front?

Because we do not know what the actual situation is.

No. You know the situation quite well. You know the troops are surrounded

and that they have no reserves.

The situation changes from moment to moment.

We trust, that it will soon change in our favor.

Do you trust the troops to break the encirclement?

They could've avoided it had you noticed the main direction of enemy attacks

and had concentrated all the reserves at that point

But you didn't, although you had two months to do so

It's not so difficult to figure out the Germans' strategy.

It's always the same attacks with mechanized troops against the flanks

But don't worry: I didn't come here to pass judgment

I'm simply stating my opinion. Good day.

We're approaching Protva.

When I was young, I knew this place from top to bottom

Strelkovka's about six miles from here. That's my home village

My mother and my sister with her four children live there

Shall we visit them, Comrade General?

No, there's no time.

Comrade General, what will become of your mother and sister

if the fascists arrive and find out they're related to General Zhukov?

Let's go! At least, we can tell them to leave.

Impossible!

In two weeks, the Germans would indeed occupy Strelkovka

Zhukov would save his mother and his sister at the very last moment

but his house would go up in flames, like the whole village.

You can't go on. Who are you?

General Zhukov. Where's your unit located?

The staff of the armored brigade is in the forest

Colonel Troitski, commander of the armored brigade

My comrade at Halkin-Gol! I didn't expect to see you here.

Quite a surprise for me, too. I thought you were in Leningrad

Tell me, what's going on here! - The armored brigade is part of HQ's reserve

So far, I've received no orders - Well, now the brigade will be under my command.

No tank is to move without an order from me. Clear? - Understood, Comrade General

Deploy part of the brigade and organize the defense

with the goal of sealing off Medyn - Understood

Send a communications officer with me. I wish you success.

Would you like a cup of tea? - No, I can't

Comrade Lieutenant, people from above have arrived

Come here!

Commander of the 6th company of the Infantry School, Podolsk. Lieutenant Mamich

How long have you been here? - Three days.

How did you organize the defense?

We pushed the enemy back to the other bank of the Ugra

Our defensive line passes through the eastern bank

How many men do you have? - 140.

With sixty more, we could strengthen the defense.

Give him 100 men! - That will be difficult, Comrade General.

We don't have the men to pull from other defensive areas

I know that. Pull them from wherever you have to!

And what if you're not able to hold out even with the reinforcements?

We'll hold out. Without fail, Comrade General

Pay attention! The fascists will not come from the Ugra

Tell the cadets! - Yes sir!

Wait, I'll tell them myself.

Why German military coats?

They were taken as booty. They warm the soldiers better than ours

Are you drunk?

The parachutists gave each of us 100 grams against the cold

It's too cold to walk about without a coat, Comrade General

How is that possible? - The quartermaster failed to distribute winter clothing

The quartermaster will face a court martial

I want everyone to be given a coat by this evening. That's an order!

Cadets! Not one step back! Not one inch! Fight to the last man!

Children, please! Try and hold out here two more days!

Two more days.

The coats, by nightfall! - Yes, sir!

Do you know with whom you were speaking?

No, we don't know.

Never forget him! That was Zhukov

Moscow 09 October 1941

Mama, I'm going to the front; I volunteered.

The front? - But don't tell anyone!

If asked, tell them I went to see grandpa in the village

Do you think you're strong enough to do this? Why do you have to go? Why you?

I, myself, asked to be sent to the front.

If you were healthy, you would've done the same

Anyway, I can't stay here any longer. I can't.

Staff Headquarters of the Western Front 10 October 1941

Comrade Marshal! The staff of the 16th Army has broken the encirclement at Vyazma

Commander of the 16th Army Lieutenant General Rokossovski

How do you explain coming to Vyazma with your staff, but not with the troops of the 16th Army?

The front commander ordered me to deliver command of my troops to General Yershakov

I'm to take command of five new divisions in Vyazma

But there were no soldiers in Vyazma!

Peculiar

The order was signed by General Koniev and Military Council member Bulganin

Yes, I gave the order to pull

Rokossovski out of a possible encirclement

He was to take command of five divisions in Vyazma

and counterattack against the Germans

But those divisions went into combat and weren't able to reach Vyazma

The State Council of Defense Commission is here to clarify

the causes for the failures on the Western Front.

It will also take into account this strange decision of yours.

Why did you let the German High Command seize the initiative?

The German High Command won the initiative thanks to its superiority

They had more tanks and more planes

If you want an idea how strong the enemy is, one example will suffice

Against 4 divisions of the 30th Army

the Germans used 12 divisions with more than 400 tanks

The troops of the 30th Army fought bravely and stubbornly, but they were forced to retreat

A strategic withdrawal is a form of complex combat

which requires a high degree of troop preparation.

I won't listen to this anymore. "Strategic withdrawal as a form of complex combat!"

How far back will your "strategic withdrawal" take our troops?

We know how to withdraw. Your strategy is undermining the Red Army. We withdraw, because

Yes. Before the war, we never practiced how to withdraw.

We thought your doctrine called for taking the fight to the enemy Kliment Yefremovioh

We avoided defensive combat. And now, thanks to you, we're paying for it in blood.

What's this? You want to place the blame for your screw-ups on me?

For me, it's clear.

The commander of the Western Front not only shows a lack of strategic understanding

but was also operationally incapable of leading his troops

I will insist that the general staff of the Western Front

in other words, General Koniev, be put up for court martial

Molotov? - Comrade Stalin.

Is Zhukov there? - Zhukov?

Yes, he's here. I'll give him the phone

Zhukov. At your service, Comrade Stalin.

Headquarters has decided to appoint you commander of the Western Front

Do you have any objections?

No, but I have a request: make Koniev my representative

The members of the Committee for Defense have quite another opinion about Koniev

Koniev knows this theater of operations well

Let him take over command in the Kalinin area

I need a representative there, who can think independently.

Fine. All the units of the Reserve Front will be at your disposal

Take over command right away! Don't lose a minute!

As the new commander of the Western Front, I'd like to say a few things

The troops on the Western Front fought with courage

and most importantly, they didn't flee in panic

The former command of the Western Front had a lot to do with that

At the cost of their lives, they saved Moscow.

Let us acknowledge those who fought to the death in defensive battles and encirclements

They stopped the Germans!

They blunted the German offensive for eight days

A fact we must exploit to open a new front before Moscow

Commander of the 16th Army Rokossovsky, I have a mission for you

You will cover the road to Volokolamsk on 14 October - Do I have any soldiers?

Of course. On your left will be the road to Minsk, which will be covered by General Lelushenko

Kubinka 12 October 1941

Colonel Polosujin, commander of the 3rd Far Eastern Rifle Division

The division has everything they need and can go into battle immediately

Congratulations, Colonel. It's a great honor for you. You'll be fighting at Borodino

Borodino 13 October 1941

Why were these left behind? - We weren't given any time!

Remove all the Russian banners

and give them to the units defending Borodino.

May the glory of these banners bring good fortune to our regiments in combat!

What's this?

The guest book for our illustrious visitors.

Polosujin! Write something on behalf of the soldiers.

"We've come to defend the field of Borodino - Polosujin."

Borodino 13 October 1941 1130 hours

At Borodino, a unit composed of so-called French volunteers, fought at Borodino

They had been recruited mainly in Lorraine.

French allies, friends!

History repeats itself

130 years ago, here, in Borodino

Napoleon's Grand Army arrived

At the time, French and German soldiers fought shoulder to shoulder, side by side.

This European army defeated the Russians and took Moscow

Now, you will repeat the feats of your ancestors.

Brave Frenchmen! I call upon your heroism!

Borodino 13 October 1941 1200 hours

Comrade Colonel! We're the unified battalion of the Moscow Political-Military School

600 men, all Communists.

This is the standard of a regiment of grenadiers

Take care of it, as if it were your own.

They will be in the second echelon. They'll have it the hardest

The defense will be led by the 230th Regiment, made up of volunteers from Moscow

Good morning, Muscovites!

Good morning!

This is the banner of the Muscovite militias of 1812.

Thank you, Comrade Colonel.

For us, it is a relic of great value

Where do the men come from?

From the factory "The Sickle and Hammer".

The engineer Grigoriev. - Greetings, Comrade Colonel

Gonchar, electromonitor.

Orlov and Zajarchenko

The Pavlovs, father and son, from "The Sickle and Hammer".

Purebred Muscovites? - By all means!

How's the mood? - Combative.

Only, the company commander, who's so hard on us

What kind of man is he?

He's my son. He's a first-rate soldier, but tries too hard

After we're done clobbering the Fritzes, I'll make you a sergeant

I'll handle it personally. - Did you hear?

Colonel Orlenko, commander of the 20th Armored Division.

This is the cavalry banner of 1812. May your steeds strike the enemy hard!

Our horses of steel are few; but they'll do

If something happens to me, let my family know!

Of course. You do the same!

Volokolamsks Directorate 14 October 1941

Major General Dovator - commander, 3rd Cavalry Corps

Password!

I couldn't tell you. We just got out of the encirclement

No one told me about it

Nothing else I could do, friend. There's no time to screw around

Comrade General!

The 3rd Cavalry Corps presents itself, as ordered

Good morning! Let's enter my headquarters!

We live like kings here. We even have a tent!

Stop! Password!

Major General Panfilov

Commander of the 31st Rifle Division

What's this nonsense about a password?

We just arrived from Central Asia and you greet us with screams!

I'm not screaming. Pass!

Our 16th Army is still not up to strength

Our main force is the Third Cavalry Corps.

Yeah, but we're pretty decimated

As you're aware, the corps just escaped an encirclement

We're aware of your brave deeds

We got General Dovator's corps; a cadet regiment of 1200 men; and Panfilov's 316th Division

Yes, I have a full division of 15,000 fighters and armed accordingly

We have good officers on duty, and commissars recruited from Kazakh politicians

We're ready to fight.

Borodino 14 October 1941

Batteries ready! - Batteries ready!

Concentrated fire with high explosives!

Elevation: 80!

Communication's been cut off! - Out loud, in a chain!

Out loud, in a chain! Elevation: 80!

Elevation: 80!

Fire at will!

Follow me! Attack! Forward!

The first attack was repelled!

They held out! Borodino's ours!

Great! But don't sit on your laurels!

Do night reconnaissance and be ready for tomorrow! Got it?

Are you defending Borodino?

Mine the highway to Minsk! Every possible on-ramp

Organize mobile groups, complete with pioneers

provide them with mines and explosive charges.

Their mission is to close the way to enemy tanks

There are no reserves. That's everything we've got

Staff HQ of the Western Front 14 October 1941

Comrade Commander! German parachutists have landed in the area of the general staff!

Order me a sub machine gun!

Inform me once they've finished off the paratroopers!

The parachute drop was finished off. There are prisoners

Are you going to question them? - I have no time.

Shall I inform headquarters? - To what end?

Borodino 15 October 1941

Report from General Dojturov to Field Marshal Kutuzov

about the battle of Borodino on 26 September 1812

"Lithuanian, lzmailovski and Finnish regiments showed themselves to be worthy

"in battle and were the first to repulse the enemy attacks with great courage

"Equally brave, other regiments also repelled the enemy

"The soldiers fought with great courage until nightfall

"at which time, the battle ended"

Same as now

One could send this today as a battle report!

And how it's written! Really extraordinary!

Colonel Polosujin, hero of the Battle of Borodino

in the 20th century, would fall in battle at Gzhatsk within three months in February 1942

They've woken up! Now, they'll come and try to cook us alive! Everyone to their positions!

Separate the infantry from the tanks!

Open fire in the direction of the army observation point.

Open fire on me! Open fire on me!

Orlenko, head up front! Forwards!

Now, we'll give them something to light their cigarettes with.

On 13 October, the enemy began an offensive from all directions towards Moscow

In the center, the enemy seized Kaluga, took Kalinin, Borovsk and Vereya

In Borodino, the enemy managed to penetrate between two and four miles

This complicates the situation around Moscow

Our troops are fighting with extreme bitterness

The commander of the Bryansk Front, General Yeremenko, is wounded

Army commander Ershakov is dead; army commander Lelushenko, wounded

It has been proposed that we make Gorovo commander of the 5th Army instead of Lelushenko

Does everyone agree? Continue!

In view of the threatening situation, it is necessary we prepare anti-aircraft batteries

for possible use against enemy land forces and have sapper detachments ready to mine

the roads and bridges around Moscow and possibly blow up the capital's bridges

Steps must be taken to prepare the capital for evacuation

Comrade Molotov will address this issue.

Due to the frontline's proximity, the Defense Committee must decide to evacuate

the government of the USSR to Kuibyshev

Government agencies must be evacuated, along with the diplomatic corps, large factories

scientific and cultural institutions

Also, state institutions of major importance

You must remove Lenin from the mausoleum!

You, Boris Mikhailovich, will leave with the chief of staff

Let Vasilievski stay with the operative group!

Comrade Stalin must leave Moscow

We've no right to endanger his life. That's my opinion.

I will talk with "Comrade Stalin" about it.

The evacuation! We've never seen anything like this before in history!

1,523 factories were dismantled and put on rail cars usually under enemy air attack

and, within five months, reassembled in the eastern parts of the USSR

For this purpose, 1,500,000 rail cars were used.

In total, 10 million people were transported east

The entire industrial complex was evacuated to the East.

Moscow 16 October 1941

Halt! Turn around! You're not allowed to proceed

It is an outrage! I'm going to complain!

Halt! What is it, comrade?

The bosses skedaddled and left us out to dry

The fewer the scaremongers, the better

It's our Moscow and we won't surrender it!

And the bosses?

Stalin's staying in Moscow.

Company, attention! Forward, march!

Podolsk Infantry School 17 October 1941

The Germans took the village of Shubinka and will attack us from there.

From there, they can carry out the offensive in the direction of Maloyargaslavetz

Each village taken by the enemy brings them one step closer to Moscow

One last effort, brothers! Do what you can!

We will do our best, Comrade

Thank you.

Soldiers, advance!

The machine gun's screwed up.

To Hell with it! Follow me! Forward!

Fillippov, sing!

Don't linger! Harass the enemy! Ahead!

They've done it! They've done it. They've taken back Shubinka!

If only we could give them a hand

Chief, do we have any reserves?

Not one man. - I'm talking about reserves - None, Comrade General!

They've surrounded us! No happy song's gonna help us now.

You're the only subordinate I have left.

Well, Cadet Gusev? Get going! Attack the enemy's flanks!

This is no time for jokes. The enemy doesn't have a sense of humor

First, some heavy artillery to tear a hole in their lines.

Bastards!

Wait, Gusev!

Gusev, wait! Think of Zoya!

It's over already

We stopped the enemy for one more day.
