Oct 17, 1941. Remnants of cut-off Soviet infantry units, scattered after the fall of Kiev, have begun partisan activities. A heavily armed group of partisans operating near Priluki have been tracked by a group of soldiers from the German 161st Inf. Div. sent to clean up the area. Worse for the Soviets, a detached squad of SS trackers are trailing a group of arriving partisan reinforcements from the east.
“Comrades, this is a main supply route for the Germans. We will mine the road and ambush the next convoy.
Destroy as many trucks as possible and then melt away to the east. We will rendezvous at camp.” - Partisan Leader Viktor S.
