At 26 turns, it turns out (see what I did there?)you have plenty of time to employ multiple approaches to the town, through the woods and around both sides of the woods flanking the East-West road. The horse riders give you just enough increased range to make the use of three avenues of advance not only possible, but pretty easy. Add in the OBA for the Germans, and the Soviets stand very little chance. A few good die rolls made for a couple of Red high points, but in the end, the Germans easily secured a decisive win.
