Introduction
|
The Russian XX Corps marched south-east toward the fortress of Grodno and safety, while the German Tenth Army force-marched around it to cut off the Russian escape. The Germans had more ground to cover, but the Russians moved through heavily-forested ground. The Germans won the race, but the Russians had no choice but to try to break through before the encirclement became complete.
|
Conclusion
|
Newly-promoted Lt. General Herbert Johnson had just taken command of 27th Infantry Division on the morning of the German offensive. He held his positions when the two other divisions of III Corps retreated eastwards, and Tenth Army transferred the division to XX Corps. His troops cleared the road through the village of Frantski in an early-morning bayonet attack, but it would not be enough to free the division.
