00:00:00There is still hope for the future.
00:00:06The United Nations Security Council has decided to hold a special meeting to discuss the future of the U.N.
00:00:14The United Nations Security Council has decided to hold a special meeting to discuss the future of the U.N.
00:00:20On September 29, 1938,
00:00:24a conference was held in Munich between Germany, Italy, France and England.
00:00:31The conference was opened by Hitler.
00:00:33After the Sudeten-German issue is settled, he said,
00:00:37we will not have any territorial claims in Europe.
00:00:42Chamberlain and Delodier, English and French Prime Ministers,
00:00:46agreed to give Germany the Sudeten region of Czechoslovakia, inhabited by Germans.
00:00:52As compensation for the treason of Czechoslovakia,
00:00:55Hitler signed a treaty with England and France,
00:00:57in which the high negotiating parties
00:00:59pledged never to wage war against each other.
00:01:09But already on March 15, 1939,
00:01:13German troops, having broken the Munich treaty,
00:01:17suddenly invaded Czechoslovakia.
00:01:24The peace promised by Chamberlain for the current generation was over.
00:01:30Europe was approaching the threshold of world war.
00:01:35At dawn on September 1, 1939,
00:01:3962 German divisions, 2,800 tanks, invaded the territory of Poland.
00:01:47On April 9, 1940,
00:01:50fascist Germany, unexpectedly using naval and air troops,
00:01:53occupied Denmark and Norway.
00:01:58On May 10, German troops, having violated neutrality,
00:02:01invaded Belgium, Holland and Luxembourg.
00:02:05On May 15, the German tank group
00:02:08carried out a deep breakthrough of the French front.
00:02:1149 English, French and Belgian divisions
00:02:14were cut off from the main forces, surrounded and pressed to La Manche.
00:02:20German troops entered Paris.
00:02:24On June 22, 1940, France capitulated.
00:02:34To be continued...
00:03:04The End
00:03:19Part Two
00:03:24The End
00:03:28The successful military campaigns against Poland, France, England,
00:03:33Holland, Belgium, Denmark and Norway
00:03:36strengthened German military strength.
00:03:40We received huge trophies.
00:03:44We obtained military equipment
00:03:4722 French, 22 Belgian, 16 Dutch, 12 English, 6 Norwegian,
00:03:54a total of 148 divisions.
00:03:58We have obtained the economic base of the whole of Europe.
00:04:03There is no army in the world that is stronger than ours.
00:04:07And now we must cross our swords
00:04:12against our main enemy, Russia.
00:04:18The task of Germany in relation to Russia
00:04:22is to break up the armed forces, to destroy the state.
00:04:26We are talking about the struggle for destruction.
00:04:29The war will be drastically different from the war in the West.
00:04:32In the East, cruelty will be good for the future.
00:04:35Russia must be liquidated.
00:04:37The deadline is spring 1941.
00:04:40The operation must be carried out in five months.
00:04:48In our historical chronicle, in our film,
00:04:51only real people participate,
00:04:53only true heroes who actually lived on Earth.
00:04:56Therefore, we will not intrigue our viewers
00:04:59and will immediately name their names.
00:05:02This is Rudolf von Schellia,
00:05:05a private employee of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Germany,
00:05:08coded by the code name of the intelligence department of the Red Army,
00:05:11as an Aryan.
00:05:20Ilse Stöbe.
00:05:35Ilse Stöbe was known in the anti-fascist resistance
00:05:38by the secret nickname Alta.
00:05:41Alta headed a group of intelligence agents-spies
00:05:44and a lot of the most important codes with her signature
00:05:47came to the center in the most difficult time of the Great War.
00:05:51Some are interested in the reaction to the negotiations.
00:05:57In Wilhelmstrasse it is not a secret
00:05:59that the negotiations with the Russians did not succeed.
00:06:02Hitler is furious.
00:06:04In diplomatic offices they only talk about it.
00:06:15What will be the final? What do you think about this issue?
00:06:20It seems to me that the British can consider themselves
00:06:23freed from the German invasion of the islands.
00:06:27Hitler will now focus all his attention on the East.
00:06:32Do you understand?
00:06:42Today I signed the directive number 21
00:06:47and called it the Barbarossa Plan.
00:06:52When this operation begins,
00:06:57Europe will hold its breath.
00:07:01The main idea of the operation is
00:07:04that the German armed forces
00:07:06through rapid military actions
00:07:08must destroy Soviet Russia.
00:07:11It is not enough for us to break up the Russian army
00:07:14and capture Moscow, Leningrad, the Caucasus.
00:07:19We must wipe this country from the face of the earth
00:07:22and destroy its people.
00:07:26Before the turning point of history,
00:07:30I free people from the restrictive nature of reason,
00:07:33from the dirty and decaying chimera
00:07:36called conscience and morality.
00:07:41Nature is cruel.
00:07:44Therefore, we also have the right to be cruel.
00:07:47And if I send the light of the German nation
00:07:50into the hell of war,
00:07:52shedding precious German blood without the slightest pity,
00:07:55then I have no doubt the right to destroy
00:07:58millions of people of the lower race,
00:08:01who are breeding like insects.
00:08:06The war, gentlemen, makes a natural selection.
00:08:09It cleanses the earth from the inferior lower races.
00:08:14The territory of Russia will be cleansed from its people
00:08:17and populated by the Germans.
00:08:22And now the Chief of Staff of the Land Forces, General Galder,
00:08:25will report the plan of Barbarossa.
00:08:32Please, gentlemen.
00:08:53The main idea is to strike the Soviet Russia
00:08:56with large forces.
00:09:00By the time of the attack on Russia,
00:09:03the total number of the armed forces
00:09:06will reach 7,234,000 soldiers.
00:09:09The offensive will be carried out with three front groups.
00:09:14The group of the Army of the North,
00:09:17General Feldmarschall von Leeb.
00:09:22The 16th and 18th Army,
00:09:25the 4th Tank Group,
00:09:28the 1st Air Fleet,
00:09:31will strike through the Baltic Sea
00:09:34to Leningrad.
00:09:42The group of the Army of the Center,
00:09:45General Feldmarschall von Bock.
00:09:49The 9th and 4th Field Armies,
00:09:52the 2nd and 3rd Tank Groups,
00:09:55with the support of the 2nd Air Fleet,
00:09:58will deliver the main strike
00:10:01on the Brest, the auxiliary,
00:10:04on the Belostok direction.
00:10:07The task is to encircle and destroy the Russian troops
00:10:10in Belarus.
00:10:14The group of the Army of the South,
00:10:17General Feldmarschall von Rundstedt.
00:10:24The 12th, 17th, and 6th Field Armies,
00:10:27the 1st Tank Group,
00:10:30and the 4th Air Fleet
00:10:35will strike on the Lvov and Chernivtsi directions
00:10:41to cut off and encircle the large Russian group
00:10:44in the right-bank Ukraine.
00:10:50Taking into account the allied countries,
00:10:53190 divisions, 5,000 planes,
00:10:56and 4,000 tanks will be allocated
00:10:59for the sudden attack on Russia.
00:11:02The enemy's resistance will be broken down quickly.
00:11:05Then, during the pursuit,
00:11:08we should quickly go to Moscow.
00:11:11It will be successful both politically
00:11:14and economically.
00:11:17It will be a decisive success.
00:11:20We must hide from the Russian intelligence
00:11:23the true meaning of the transfer
00:11:26of huge human masses and military equipment
00:11:29from the West to the East.
00:11:32Let the information leak
00:11:35that the German command,
00:11:38in order to distract attention
00:11:41from the latest preparations
00:11:44for the invasion of England,
00:11:47is carrying out a disinformation maneuver.
00:11:50At the same time,
00:11:53we should intensify preparations
00:11:56for the invasion of the British Isles
00:11:59and organize a massive air offensive
00:12:02on England from spring to early summer 1941.
00:12:05We should convince the world
00:12:08that the invasion is about to begin.
00:12:11We should develop several operations
00:12:14that would not be carried out
00:12:17and would have only disinformation purposes.
00:12:20We will sign a long-term trade agreement
00:12:23with Russia
00:12:26and introduce the Russians to our aircraft.
00:12:29We will even sell them the latest aircraft
00:12:32of the latest type.
00:12:35They will not have time
00:12:38to use our technical innovations
00:12:41before the start of the war.
00:12:44But the very fact of such trust
00:12:47must confirm friendly relations
00:12:50with Germany and Russia.
00:12:53So, the readiness of the Barbarossa plan
00:12:56is on May 20.
00:12:59The main thing is to go to Moscow.
00:13:10Comrades Generals!
00:13:21How did the war game go?
00:13:24Who is reporting?
00:13:27The head of the General Staff,
00:13:30General of the Army Meretskov, is reporting.
00:13:40The military-strategic staff game
00:13:43was aimed at checking the plan of covering
00:13:46and actions of the troops in the early period of the war.
00:13:49The assumptions were taken
00:13:52that in case of an attack on the Soviet Union
00:13:56the German troops could turn to the western front.
00:14:02The composition of the fronts was
00:14:05the Western Blue 60th Division
00:14:08and the Eastern Red 50th Division.
00:14:12The Blue West Division
00:14:15was led by General Zhukov.
00:14:18The Eastern Red Division
00:14:21was led by Colonel General Pavlov.
00:14:26The Blue Division made powerful strikes with its flanks.
00:14:29On the right, on the Brest-Bobruisk,
00:14:32and on the left, on the Vilnius and Minsk.
00:14:37As a result, a dramatic situation arose
00:14:40due to the threat of full encirclement
00:14:43and the defeat of the Eastern and the capture of Minsk.
00:14:49The reasons for the success of the Blue Division
00:14:52were suddenness,
00:14:55the right choice of the direction of the main strike
00:14:58and skillful use of numerical superiority.
00:15:01It is necessary to take into account
00:15:04that General Zhukov had 10 divisions more.
00:15:07Do not forget that during the war
00:15:10not only the arithmetic majority is needed,
00:15:13but also the skill of the commanders.
00:15:16What are the reasons for the unsuccessful actions
00:15:19of the Blue Division?
00:15:22It's a strategic game, comrade Stalin.
00:15:25It's like a card game.
00:15:28Today you, tomorrow me.
00:15:31The commander of the troops of his district
00:15:34should be able to find the right decision
00:15:37in any conditions,
00:15:40which you did not show in the game.
00:15:43Moreover, your front represented our Red Army.
00:15:47May I?
00:15:50The military-strategic game
00:15:53showed that the field defense of the Reds was weak.
00:15:58I would like to express my opinion
00:16:01about the construction of fortified borders.
00:16:04In my opinion, in Western Belarus,
00:16:07fortified borders are built too close to the border
00:16:10and have an extremely unprofitable operational configuration,
00:16:13especially in the area of the Belostok outpost.
00:16:16This allows the enemy,
00:16:19as it was seen from the game,
00:16:22to strike from the area of Brest
00:16:25to the rear of our Belostok group.
00:16:28And in Ukraine, fortified areas are built correctly.
00:16:31I did not choose borders
00:16:34for the construction of fortifications in Ukraine.
00:16:37However, I believe that there, too,
00:16:40it would be necessary to build them further from the border.
00:16:47In the military-strategic game,
00:16:50the last actions of the German fascist troops
00:16:53in Europe were reflected.
00:16:56And even the variant of the main strike
00:16:59on the Soviet Union through Belarus was planned.
00:17:03But, comrades,
00:17:06the most dangerous strategic direction
00:17:09should be considered
00:17:12the south-west direction,
00:17:15Ukraine, not Belarus.
00:17:18The enemy will strive to seize Ukraine
00:17:21in order to deprive our country
00:17:24of the most important economic,
00:17:27political and political resources.
00:17:33And to seize Ukrainian bread,
00:17:36Donetsk coal,
00:17:39and then Caucasian oil.
00:17:46When developing an operational plan
00:17:49in the spring of 1941,
00:17:52it is necessary to take this into account.
00:18:03A break is announced.
00:18:06All are free.
00:18:12Zhukov will stay.
00:18:24The Politburo decided to release
00:18:27Meretskov from the position of Chief of the General Staff
00:18:31and appoint you instead.
00:18:34Comrade Stalin, I have never worked at the headquarters.
00:18:38I have always been in the ranks.
00:18:41I cannot be the head of the General Staff.
00:18:50The Politburo decided to appoint you.
00:19:01A message from Berlin.
00:19:04From whom?
00:19:07From Alte.
00:19:10The leaders of the circle believe
00:19:13that the war with Russia will begin this year.
00:19:16The estimated deadline is May 15-June 15.
00:19:19Ariis says that he learned about the upcoming attack on the USSR
00:19:22from the same people
00:19:25who had previously correctly reported
00:19:28about the German troops entering Holland and Belgium.
00:19:31Keep your eyes open and do not deceive yourself.
00:19:34Alte.
00:19:37Another encryption.
00:19:40X was appointed to the German embassy.
00:19:43He should arrive there on March 10.
00:19:46The password and phone number are given to him.
00:19:49He will come to the meeting in a dark gray coat with a book in his hands
00:19:52in which a newspaper dated March 10 will be laid.
00:19:56This X, with the help of Alte,
00:19:59through Ariis was appointed to Moscow, to the German embassy.
00:20:05This is very good.
00:20:08Well done.
00:20:11This is already something real.
00:20:14You will go to the meeting in person.
00:20:17He remained X.
00:20:20An unknown anti-fascist patriot.
00:20:26In the German embassy in Moscow,
00:20:29X took an ordinary position.
00:20:32But the nature of his work was in line
00:20:35with the entire correspondence of the German ambassador, Count von Schulenburg.
00:20:38On that day, X conveyed
00:20:41that Count von Schulenburg went to Berlin
00:20:44and met Hitler there.
00:20:47There, the ambassador spoke about the complexity of the war with the Soviet Union.
00:20:50Hitler, without listening to von Schulenburg, threw the phrase
00:20:53that he was going to fight with Russia.
00:20:56No one could then assume
00:20:59that Hitler said this phrase
00:21:02because he did not trust Schulenburg.
00:21:06A few days later.
00:21:21You must fall in love with Japan.
00:21:24After Japan, you will not want to look at a European woman.
00:21:27How long will you be here, Colonel?
00:21:30I have no secrets from you, dear Sorge.
00:21:33We will inspect the Japanese army.
00:21:36As soon as the events on the Eastern Front begin,
00:21:39we will immediately fly back.
00:21:42Will the war with Russia happen so soon?
00:21:45Yes, very soon. I think at the end of May.
00:21:48This is the time of the end of the Seva in Russia.
00:21:51Since you prefer war and love,
00:21:54then we will postpone our acquaintance with Japanese girls until the next time.
00:22:03A few days later.
00:22:21What do you think, Colonel?
00:22:24Do we have enough strength to immediately break the resistance of Russia?
00:22:28I am afraid that we are engaged in prolonged battles
00:22:31and will not have time to finish off the Russians before winter.
00:22:34What are you, Mr. Sorge?
00:22:37The Fuhrer is determined to defeat the Russians with one blow.
00:22:42It will be a blitzkrieg.
00:22:47In secret.
00:22:50150 divisions, 9 armies.
00:22:53No one can resist.
00:22:57Thank you, you calmed me down.
00:23:28Some car was driving around the house.
00:23:33Maybe we should let it pass today?
00:23:36You are a soldier of the guard post.
00:23:39Don't forget about it.
00:23:42Go to the radio.
00:23:50Until the beginning of the war,
00:23:54there are only a few days left.
00:24:01Cipher according to the old code.
00:24:11The German military representatives arriving in Tokyo
00:24:14declare that the war between Germany and the USSR
00:24:17may begin at the end of May.
00:24:24Germany has 9 armies against the USSR,
00:24:29consisting of 150 divisions.
00:24:35Ramzai.
00:24:39May I, Comrade Commander?
00:24:42Yes.
00:24:45Our pilots have put a German scout.
00:24:48The pilot found a secret instruction.
00:24:51Here, look.
00:25:09What is it?
00:25:12Instructions on the alarm.
00:25:15How to identify German aircraft during the operation
00:25:18with the troops and the fleet in England.
00:25:21In England.
00:25:24You see, Vladimir Evgenievich,
00:25:27and you are still panicking.
00:25:30But it may be a false demonstration.
00:25:33It's not a demonstration.
00:25:36It may be a false demonstration.
00:25:39You, our headquarters, must think strategically.
00:25:46After the imperialist war,
00:25:49the Germans will never fight on two fronts.
00:25:52It's not a coincidence that they signed a treaty with us on the attack.
00:25:55They need England now.
00:25:58England!
00:26:01What if they attack?
00:26:05You know, I was appointed a tanker for a reason.
00:26:08If we attack, they will fly to Berlin.
00:26:11Why are you frowning?
00:26:16You know, Comrade Commander,
00:26:19all tank divisions are in the formation stage.
00:26:22And they mostly have old tanks, BT.
00:26:25There are very few new vehicles.
00:26:28Stop it!
00:26:31I promise.
00:26:34Tell the troops to stop the rumors about the war.
00:26:37We will take responsibility for the panic.
00:26:40Tell Moscow about the violation of the border with the German aircraft.
00:26:43German aircraft have repeatedly violated
00:26:46the state border of the USSR in recent days.
00:26:49More than 48 violations have been registered.
00:26:52Call Ribbentrop and send him a verbal note.
00:27:01What's new, Comrade Golikov?
00:27:05According to the latest agent data,
00:27:08the German fascist troops
00:27:11will attack the USSR on June 15.
00:27:14As you remember,
00:27:17the deadline was from May 15 to the end of May.
00:27:20The agency reports
00:27:23that the air force of the Kesselring Foundation,
00:27:26which made raids on England,
00:27:29will attack the USSR on June 15.
00:27:32It is also reported that the German High Command
00:27:35has ordered to end the concentration of troops
00:27:38by June 2.
00:27:41What is your opinion?
00:27:45I believe that the most likely time
00:27:48for Germany to begin its actions against the USSR
00:27:51will be the moment after the victory over England.
00:27:54Rumors about the inevitability of war
00:27:57in the spring of this year against the USSR
00:28:00should be regarded as disinformation
00:28:03coming from English
00:28:06and even German intelligence.
00:28:12What will the head of the General Staff say?
00:28:18I have already reported to you, Comrade Stalin,
00:28:21about the disturbing moods
00:28:24in the border areas.
00:28:27I believe that it is necessary to bring the troops
00:28:30to full combat readiness
00:28:33and turn the first echelons.
00:28:36You suggest mobilization in the country,
00:28:39to raise the troops
00:28:42and move them to the western borders.
00:28:45This is war. Do you understand this or not?
00:28:49How many divisions do we have
00:28:52in the Baltic, Western, Kiev
00:28:55and Odessa military districts?
00:28:59By June 1, there will be 149 divisions.
00:29:02Well, isn't that not enough?
00:29:05Comrade Stalin, according to intelligence data,
00:29:08the German divisions are equipped
00:29:11and armed according to the war times.
00:29:15There are between 14,000 and 16,000 people
00:29:18in their divisions.
00:29:21Our divisions consist of 8,000 people.
00:29:24Intelligence can not be trusted in everything.
00:29:36Philip Ivanovich, the encryption from Sorge.
00:29:39I repeat.
00:29:42Nine armies of 150 German divisions
00:29:45will attack the Soviet border
00:29:48on June 22.
00:29:51The various terms of the alleged invasion
00:29:54of the German troops,
00:29:57which were reported by secret agents,
00:30:00have caused doubts and confused the conclusions
00:30:03of the intelligence department of the Red Army.
00:30:10Hello, Pyotr Mikhailovich.
00:30:13Sit down.
00:30:16Tell me.
00:30:19Didn't you finish your construction?
00:30:22Two battalions of my regiment work every day
00:30:25on the construction of the Brest stronghold.
00:30:28And you know, Comrade Commissar,
00:30:31that it is not ready at all.
00:30:34So far, not a single gun has been placed in any dota.
00:30:38The strongholds are not in a hurry.
00:30:41Because we don't need them.
00:30:46What do you mean, you don't need them?
00:30:49Our military concept is not defense,
00:30:52but offensive.
00:30:55If the enemy imposes war on us,
00:30:58our army will be the most attacking of all armies.
00:31:01And it will be able to strike the enemy
00:31:04with a crushing blow and finish him
00:31:07where he came from.
00:31:10Hit by hit, with little blood.
00:31:13I read and watched movies.
00:31:17Don't be ironic here.
00:31:20We know your mood.
00:31:23I officially invited you here, Comrade Gavrilov,
00:31:26to inform you that you have received material.
00:31:29You are accused of panic.
00:31:32And of spreading rumors about the inevitability of war with Germany.
00:31:40Yes, I think so.
00:31:43In the near future, we will be at war with Nazi Germany.
00:31:46And the facts, unfortunately, confirm this.
00:31:49What facts?
00:31:52Anxious, Comrade Commissar.
00:31:55From the outpost, it was reported that today the Germans
00:31:58conducted testing of the Bug right opposite the stronghold.
00:32:01All night long,
00:32:04there was a noise of engines in the outpost.
00:32:07Do you seriously think that the Germans will force the Bug here?
00:32:10At this depth?
00:32:13Will they go to the bottom?
00:32:16Maybe to the bottom.
00:32:19Well, Comrade Gavrilov,
00:32:22caution is a good thing.
00:32:25But this is done by people higher than you and me.
00:32:28As for your personal case,
00:32:31I'm sorry, Pyotr Mikhailovich,
00:32:34but we have to put it
00:32:37on the division committee, which will take place on June 27.
00:32:59The Russians do not suspect an attack.
00:33:02Their intelligence has been misled.
00:33:05The measures taken by the Wehrmacht command
00:33:08to disguise the operation,
00:33:11including frequent relocation of troops,
00:33:14disinformation about the upcoming landing of the troops in England
00:33:17and other false actions,
00:33:20have yielded results.
00:33:23This was the greatest deception in the history of wars.
00:33:27Now it's the army's turn.
00:33:30Russia, or the colossus on clay feet,
00:33:33as the Fuehrer aptly called it,
00:33:36will fall apart at the first blow.
00:33:39The enemy's living force
00:33:42must be destroyed in the borderly,
00:33:45rapid battles,
00:33:48as provided by Barbarossa's plan.
00:33:51There is reason to assume
00:33:54that the forthcoming campaign
00:33:57will not last more than six weeks.
00:34:02The commander of the 2nd Air Fleet,
00:34:05Generalfeldmarschall Kesselring,
00:34:08will report how he plans to attack
00:34:11the Soviet airfields
00:34:14located in the rear,
00:34:17in order not to alarm the border units.
00:34:24We will approach the Russian airfields
00:34:27from a great height,
00:34:30like aerial scouts,
00:34:33especially since the Russians are used to our reconnaissance flights.
00:34:36We will fly over the border with high-altitude aircraft
00:34:39flying up to 10 kilometers.
00:34:42Accurate calculation should ensure
00:34:45that bombers appear over the Russian airfields
00:34:48at exactly 3 hours and 30 minutes,
00:34:51Take my congratulations, Kesselring.
00:34:54This is an excellent plan.
00:34:57It is the only one that can ensure
00:35:00a complete sudden attack.
00:35:03Sturmbannfuhrer Skorzeny will report
00:35:06on the actions of the Brandenburg 800 regiment.
00:35:17The Brandenburg 800 regiment
00:35:20is distributed between the headquarters of the avant-garde armies
00:35:23with the task of capturing the crossing
00:35:26in the rear of the Soviet troops,
00:35:29as well as the destruction of communication lines and sabotage.
00:35:32The regiment is fully equipped
00:35:35with Russian uniforms.
00:35:38Many of them speak Russian.
00:35:41The operation is planned primarily
00:35:44at the bridges over Bug and Dvina,
00:35:47as well as in the area of the fortress of Brest.
00:35:50Today, at 9 p.m.,
00:35:53we are sending a convoy with coal to Brest
00:35:56at the expense of supplies to the Russians on the trade agreement.
00:36:02In this convoy,
00:36:05there are wagons with a double bottom.
00:36:08Look at the layout.
00:36:11There are three sabotage groups.
00:36:17Well thought out.
00:36:20So, the troops will move to the border
00:36:23at 9.30 p.m.
00:36:48Attention!
00:36:51The Fuhrer's order!
00:36:54Soldiers of the Eastern Front!
00:36:57The hour has come
00:37:00when I can speak openly with you.
00:37:03The time has come
00:37:06when I can speak openly with you.
00:37:09The time has come
00:37:12when I can speak openly with you.
00:37:15The time has come
00:37:18when the world's greatest expansion
00:37:21is taking place.
00:37:24It is the largest of all that the world has ever seen.
00:37:27It is the largest of all that the world has ever seen.
00:37:30You are now entering a persistent and responsible struggle
00:37:33because the fate of Europe,
00:37:36the future of the German Reich and our people
00:37:39is now entirely in your hands.
00:37:42Take a number of submarines forward!
00:37:45Give out schnapps to the Feldwebels!
00:38:12Stop!
00:38:15Don't shoot!
00:38:18I am a German communist!
00:38:21Comrade Stalin,
00:38:24General Purkaev, the head of the Kiev military district,
00:38:27has just called me.
00:38:30He said that a German Feldwebel,
00:38:33who claims that the German troops
00:38:36are going to the eastern area of the offensive,
00:38:39which will begin on the morning of June 22nd,
00:38:42is going to the eastern area of the offensive.
00:38:45Have the German generals
00:38:48planted a trap for this Feldwebel?
00:38:51No.
00:38:54We believe that the Feldwebel is telling the truth.
00:38:57What are we going to do?
00:39:03We must immediately give the directive to the troops
00:39:06to be fully prepared for the engagement
00:39:09of all the troops from the border areas.
00:39:28Good evening. One soft one to Riga.
00:39:31All tickets are sold out.
00:39:34I don't care.
00:39:37All tickets are sold out.
00:39:40Where is our station? Where is the military commandant?
00:39:43There is no one. Today is Saturday.
00:39:46So there are no tickets?
00:39:49Not a single one.
00:39:52Okay, I'll go tomorrow.
00:39:55I have to wait 24 hours.
00:39:58My wife will be upset.
00:40:04Let's go.
00:40:29What is this?
00:40:32The border guards have their own service.
00:41:02When did you send the directive to the encirclement?
00:41:05On June 22nd, at 00.30.

00:44:54A few hundred people from different regiments
00:44:57have gathered in the eastern casemates.

00:45:06I am the commander of the 44th regiment,

00:47:26Hooray!
00:47:30The German secret weapon.
00:47:33Underwater tanks, adapted for underwater movement.
00:47:36These tanks were supposed to be used in the waters of La Manche
00:47:39during the invasion of England.
00:47:42They were urgently transferred to the east,
00:47:45and Guderian used them on June 22nd
00:47:48on a buggy near Brest.

00:48:45Comrade Stalin, the German land forces
00:48:48have crossed the border in the north-west and west directions
00:48:51after a strong artillery fire.
00:48:57Only a madman can start a war on two fronts now.
00:49:00Only a madman can start a war on two fronts now.
00:49:28I need to make an urgent call to the German Embassy.
00:49:44The German Ambassador Schulenburg has arrived.
00:49:47He asks you to receive him for an urgent message.
00:49:57Mr. Minister,
00:50:00I was entrusted by my government
00:50:03to hand you an official memorandum.
00:50:10The Fuhrer has decided to take measures
00:50:13to protect the life and security of the German people.
00:50:16to protect the life and security of the German people.
00:50:19The Fuhrer has decided to take measures

00:50:25to protect the life and security of the German people.
00:50:28An hour ago, the German troops
00:50:31crossed the borders of the Soviet Union.
00:50:34crossed the borders of the Soviet Union.
00:50:37I want to tell you from myself, Mr. Minister,
00:50:40I want to tell you from myself, Mr. Minister,
00:50:43I consider Hitler's decision to be mad.
00:50:46I consider Hitler's decision to be mad.
00:50:49The behavior of the German Ambassador Count von Schulenburg
00:50:52The behavior of the German Ambassador Count von Schulenburg
00:50:55may have seemed strange at the time,
00:50:58but the old German diplomat was sincere in his feelings.
00:51:01Therefore, his tragic fate.
00:51:04He was involved in the failed assassination of Hitler
00:51:07and was executed in 1944.
00:51:10This is war.
00:51:14The commander of the Corps. Urgently.
00:51:17Come in.
00:51:22Comrade General, an urgent telegram from the headquarters.
00:51:30All commanders to the headquarters on list one.
00:51:33Aye-aye.
00:51:43Is it really war?
00:51:46Kostya!
00:51:57According to the instructions,
00:51:59this package can only be opened at the disposal of the Chairman of the Soviet People's Commissariat of the USSR
00:52:04or the People's Commissariat of Defense.
00:52:06What are we going to do?
00:52:08No communication.
00:52:09Neither with Moscow nor with Kiev.
00:52:11All lines are damaged.
00:52:13We have to wait.
00:52:15What if it's a war?
00:52:16And it's expensive every minute.
00:52:24You're taking a risk.
00:52:30I've already taken a risk.
00:52:37Immediately bring the corps to combat readiness
00:52:40and advance in the direction of Lutsk-Kovel.
00:52:45I announce a combat alert.
00:52:47Prepare all the equipment for the offensive.
00:52:50Comrade General,
00:52:54the General Staff is not provided with an option
00:52:56how to act on the corps
00:52:58if the war stops it in the period of formation.
00:53:01At present, there is a minimum number of vehicles in the corps,
00:53:05there is no fuel
00:53:07and there is no ammunition.
00:53:09We have to delay.
00:53:10But the warehouses of the People's Commissariat of Defense are closed.
00:53:13And today is Sunday.
00:53:22Let's go.
00:53:25And take the command platoon with you.
00:53:34Stop! Who's coming?
00:53:35I'm the head of the garrison, General Major Rokossovsky.
00:53:37I'm taking off my post.
00:53:38Watchman, listen to my command.
00:53:40Attention!
00:53:42At ease!
00:53:43March!
00:53:47Break down the locks.
00:53:48And take out all the cars.
00:53:49And all civilians.
00:53:51And also break down the warehouses with ammunition.
00:53:55Break down the locks.
00:54:08Comrade General,
00:54:09there is an order
00:54:11only with the permission of Moscow.
00:54:13There is no connection with Moscow.
00:54:14I don't know anything.
00:54:15This is a war.
00:54:16I have to lead people into battle well-armed.
00:54:18I don't know anything.
00:54:19And I warn you.
00:54:20You will answer like an anarchist.
00:54:21Shut up!
00:54:22Arrest him.
00:54:23Ten days for insulting the General.
00:54:25Yes!
00:54:26And the notice?
00:54:27Well, the notice, please.
00:54:31Visas are still needed.
00:54:32Visas of other superiors.
00:54:34Visas?
00:54:35Visas.
00:54:37Visas after the war.
00:55:35Fire!
00:56:06Zoya,
00:56:07I congratulate you on a successful transition to the 10th grade.
00:56:10Thank you.
00:56:12Shurik,
00:56:14Thank you.
00:56:15Congratulations.
00:56:17And you, Filippov,
00:56:19the underground nickname Philia,
00:56:22I congratulate you on the heroic completion of high school.
00:56:25And you too, comrade Goose,
00:56:27although you did not show due heroism
00:56:29when passing the state exams.
00:56:31What are we going to do with them?
00:56:33Let's set them free.
00:56:42Attention!
00:56:45Moscow speaks.
00:56:48Citizens of the Soviet Union,
00:56:55Today at four o'clock in the morning,
00:56:59without declaring war,
00:57:03German regular units
00:57:08attacked our borders
00:57:12in many places
00:57:15and raided our cities
00:57:20Minsk, Kaunas, Sevastopol.
00:57:34Our commanders
00:57:37do not have enough experience
00:57:40in leading military operations
00:57:43and, apparently, were a little confused.
00:57:46The Politburo decided to send you, comrade Zhukov,
00:57:50to the Southwestern Front as a representative of the General Staff.
00:57:55You fly immediately.
00:58:03Moscow, Sevastopol.
00:58:34Moscow, Sevastopol.
00:58:55General Kopets.
00:58:59General Kopets.
00:59:03General Kopets.
00:59:05We received an urgent telegram from the commander.
00:59:07He is in the 4th Army.
00:59:09Here.
00:59:10All units of the Western Front,
00:59:13immediately, with all forces,
00:59:15in groups,
00:59:17destroy tanks and crossings
00:59:19on the outskirts of Grodno.
00:59:21Pavlov.
00:59:23Make a strike on the German tank columns.
00:59:27Yes, sir.
00:59:28Pavlov.
00:59:30Make a strike on the German tank columns.
00:59:33Stop them.
00:59:40There will be no strike.
00:59:42What do you mean?
00:59:43This is an order.
00:59:45Only this morning and only on the ground.
00:59:49528 planes were destroyed in the district.
00:59:53528?
00:59:55Almost all modern fighters.
00:59:57I didn't think there would be so many.
00:59:59Why?
01:00:00Why?
01:00:01Because neither you, Vladimir Evgenievich, nor Pavlov said anything.
01:00:05When the NKVD authorities,
01:00:06to whom all construction works were entrusted,
01:00:08started them at all border airfields at the same time.
01:00:13Then no one thought about the situation.
01:00:16I don't want to justify myself in front of you.
01:00:18I don't want to.
01:00:19But because of you,
01:00:20the entire aviation of the district
01:00:22was piled up on several sites.
01:00:25And the German intelligence took them down.
01:00:27But what can we do?
01:00:29We have an offensive task for the 11th Mech Corps.
01:00:33And it must be covered by your 11th Aviation.
01:00:36All the planes of the division were destroyed at the airfield.
01:00:43I said, all of them.
01:00:55I said, all of them.
01:01:26He was a brilliant pilot.
01:01:28A hero of the Spanish war.
01:01:30At the age of 32, he became the commander of the aviation
01:01:33of the Western Military District.
01:01:37Comrade Timoshenko,
01:01:39report to the Politburo the operational report of the General Staff
01:01:42for 22 hours.
01:01:45Yes, sir.
01:01:46I will report to the Politburo for 22 hours.
01:01:49Yes, sir.
01:01:50I will report to the Politburo for 22 hours.
01:01:53Yes, sir.
01:01:54I will report to the Politburo for 22 hours.
01:02:02The German regular troops
01:02:04during the 22nd of June
01:02:06fought against the border units of the USSR,
01:02:09having little success
01:02:11in certain directions.
01:02:13In the second half of the day,
01:02:15with the approach of the front units of the Red Army,
01:02:18the attacks of the German troops
01:02:20with the losses of the enemy.
01:02:24This is a certain tendency, unfortunately,
01:02:28found in our ideological work.
01:02:34A typical contradiction between the situation
01:02:36they want to see
01:02:38and the situation that is actually taking place.
01:02:42We believe that the first report should be calm.
01:02:45Report how the matter is in reality.
01:02:50Despite the most energetic measures, Comrade Stalin,
01:02:53the General Staff could not receive
01:02:55from the headquarters of the fronts
01:02:57accurate data on our troops.
01:02:59How many kilometers did the enemy manage to advance?
01:03:05Information about the depth of the enemy's penetration
01:03:08on our territory is quite contradictory.
01:03:11The General Staff and I
01:03:13could not contact the commander of the Western Front,
01:03:16General of the Army Pavlov,
01:03:18who did not report to me,
01:03:20went somewhere to the troops.
01:03:25According to the aviation intelligence,
01:03:27the battles are being fought 15-20 kilometers
01:03:29deep into our territory.
01:03:33Comrade Timoshenko,
01:03:35prepare a directive
01:03:37on the transition of our troops
01:03:39to counter-offensive actions.
01:03:45But we still do not know
01:03:48how the enemy will strike.
01:03:50Yes.
01:03:52Isn't it better to figure out
01:03:54what is going on at the front
01:03:56and then make the right decision?
01:03:59Have you thought how it is possible
01:04:01that the Red Army,
01:04:03raised in a high offensive spirit,
01:04:06from the first days of the war
01:04:08will move to passive defense?
01:04:11Will leave the initiative in the hands of the aggressor?
01:04:14If we will only retreat
01:04:16and will not counterattack,
01:04:18then where will we stop?
01:04:22Comrade Timoshenko,
01:04:24prepare a directive on counter-offensive actions.
01:04:43The directive of the General Staff.
01:04:47Here are your vigorous reports.
01:04:49You did not report anything
01:04:51about the breakthrough
01:04:53of two German tank groups, did you?
01:04:55You know, Comrade Commander,
01:04:57that we receive accurate data only at the end of the day.
01:05:00Yes, I know.
01:05:02It is a pity that our first reports
01:05:04do not reflect the great danger
01:05:06for the troops of the South-Western Front.
01:05:09Probably the same reassuring reports
01:05:11were made in Moscow
01:05:13from the second day of the war.
01:05:15They were made in Moscow from other fronts
01:05:17as a result of this directive.
01:05:19Read it.
01:05:24The troops of the South-Western Front are ordered
01:05:26to firmly hold the state border,
01:05:28with concentric strikes in the general direction
01:05:30towards Lublin,
01:05:32with the forces of at least five mechanized corps,
01:05:34to encircle and destroy the enemy group
01:05:36advancing on the front
01:05:38Vladimir-Volynsky-Krasnopol.
01:05:41By the end of June 24,
01:05:43we will seize Lublin.
01:05:45This is an impossible task.
01:05:48Thank God, we would be able
01:05:50to stop the enemy,
01:05:52but we are being demanded
01:05:54to seize Lublin the day after tomorrow.
01:06:05What are we going to do?
01:06:07Let's take a look at the situation.
01:06:12Ten German tank and infantry divisions
01:06:15are advancing in the Lutsk direction.
01:06:18What can we oppose them?
01:06:21At best, our seven incomplete divisions.
01:06:25Ten against seven?
01:06:32What kind of immediate offensive
01:06:34can we talk about?
01:06:36Now we can only hold back
01:06:38the advance of the enemy with persistent fighting.
01:06:41Everything you say, Maxim Alekseevich,
01:06:43from a military point of view,
01:06:45may be correct,
01:06:47but politically it is completely wrong.
01:06:49You think like a purely military specialist.
01:06:52Distribution of forces,
01:06:54proportions, and so on.
01:06:56And do you take into account the moral factor?
01:07:00Sometimes seven divisions are more than ten.
01:07:03What are you doing?
01:07:05Do you want to let the fascists
01:07:07into the depths of the Soviet land?
01:07:11You know, Maxim Alekseevich,
01:07:13you are our combat friend.
01:07:16If I didn't know you as an experienced communist,
01:07:20I would think that you panicked.
01:07:26Hello, comrade.
01:07:29Here, comrade General of the Army,
01:07:31we are discussing the directive of the General Staff.
01:07:34And what is there to discuss?
01:07:36The order is the order, it must be carried out.
01:07:39And then, in such a situation,
01:07:41when the front is divided, there is no other way.
01:07:43Only counterattack.
01:07:45And if the counterattack is not strong enough,
01:07:47the troops will remain surrounded.
01:07:59Even if the counterattack did not lead to success,
01:08:03it would hide the significant strength of the enemy.
01:08:12Well, let's strike with all the mechanical corps.
01:08:24On the morning of the 25th,
01:08:26we must strike in the direction of Berestechko.
01:08:30We have to march about 120 kilometers.
01:08:34And we have already passed 300 kilometers.
01:08:37People have not slept for two days.
01:08:40The rear is behind, there is nothing to refuel.
01:08:43All the fuel is drained for the front units.
01:08:46The rear will come, the main forces will refuel.
01:08:56Let's go.
01:09:06Comrade member of the military council...
01:09:08Betrayal!
01:09:10The corps was ordered to act at 9 a.m.
01:09:12And now it is 11 a.m.
01:09:14And no one went abroad.
01:09:16The corps can finish regrouping only by tomorrow morning.
01:09:20In 20 minutes.
01:09:22Decision. And forward!
01:09:25I order you to start the offensive immediately.
01:09:28If you do not start, I will remove you from your post and send you to court.
01:09:36Well, I have to make a suicidal decision.
01:09:41Partially enter the corps into battle.
01:09:46Okay.
01:09:48A mobile group is being created in the composition of the divisions of Vasilyev,
01:09:52Volkov's regiment and the motorcycle battalion.
01:09:56The main forces, after regrouping, will enter the battle tomorrow morning.
01:10:02It would have been so long ago.
01:10:05Execute.
01:10:08And Popel will command the mobile group.
01:10:14You have to take Dubno by the evening.
01:10:16If you take it, you will receive a reward.
01:10:18If not, I warn you.
01:10:22Blame yourself.
01:10:26The beginning of the war was severe.
01:10:28A cruel and insidious enemy fell on us.
01:10:32Its total military-economic potential was twice that of the Soviet Union.
01:10:38The enemy had the advantage of a sudden attack.
01:10:44German troops were advancing in all directions.
01:10:48The enemy was on the move.
01:11:08On July 23, the command of the Red Army ordered the Baltic, Western and Kiev military districts
01:11:16to drop nine of their mobile corps into counterattack.
01:11:21Listen to my command! Forward!
01:11:24Only forward! Attack the German tanks!
01:11:27Only this will save us from aviation! Forward!
01:11:30There will be no return ticket! Forward!
01:11:33Attack the tanks!
01:11:40On the Western front, the heroic battle was waged by the 6th mobile corps,
01:11:44which was continuously attacked by German aviation.
01:11:48Having one fuel tank, the 6th mobile corps of General Khatskelevich
01:11:53rushed into its last attack.
01:12:44Forward!
01:13:14Forward!
01:13:28The order of the front to counterattack has been received again.
01:13:31Look at how the enemy outperforms us.
01:13:41I take the responsibility not to counterattack.
01:13:44We will meet the enemy with artillery fire.
01:13:47All artillery units, fire!
01:13:50All artillery units, fire!
01:14:14Air! Everyone down!
01:14:44Air!
01:15:00Tempo is the most important thing for us! Fire! Fire!
01:15:14Fire!
01:15:44Fire!
01:16:14Fire!
01:16:45The track is broken. Bastards!
01:16:49I don't know what trick, but it will do for the Germans.
01:16:53Are you wounded?
01:16:55Can you do it with your hands, Comrade Commissar?
01:16:58Just a minute.
01:17:00Yes.
01:17:12As a result of the counterattacks of the 6th mobile corps,
01:17:15the enemy's plan of rapid breakthrough to Kiev was disrupted in Ukraine.
01:17:21The enemy suffered significant losses
01:17:24and was convinced of the strength of our troops, Comrade Stalin.
01:17:26The situation on the Western front has become difficult.
01:17:30The enemy has approached Minsk.
01:17:33It is not clear what is going on with Pavlov.
01:17:36Fly to Moscow immediately.
