Here we describe the battle for Breslau based on the notes of Captain Trotz, who fought against the Red Army in the besieged city. About the battle: The Battle of Breslau refers to the attempt by the German Wehrmacht in the final phase of World War II in Europe to build a defensive line on the River Oder. The aim was to prevent the encirclement of the important transport junction of Breslau and to defend the city, which had been declared a "Fortress Breslau". These activities began on January 23, 1945, when the Soviet Red Army succeeded in establishing bridgeheads at Oppeln and Ohlau, both southeast of Breslau, west of the Oder (in the chronology from January 31). The battle for the city that followed began on February 15 with its encirclement as part of the Lower Silesian Operation and ended on May 6 with the partial surrender to the Soviet 6th Army. 00:00 Start 00:29 Intro 03:39 Part 1 20:24 Outro ????Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/6DDHvrW... ????SHOP : https://shop.bacuffz.com ????Channel member : For 1.99 euros you can be there, all videos without advertising ????
