Argesukov, Ante Army Southwestern Front Army Headquarters, 2330 hours.
"How far have they advanced?" General Skorobo leaped to his feet in shock.
The staff officer bowed his head to confirm the numbers on the report, then cautiously replied, "40 kilometers."
General Skorobo, "What about our troops? How could we let the enemy's armored clusters move forward forty kilometers?"
As the general roared with fury, the operation staff at the Front Army headquarters emotionlessly placed an arrow representing the enemy on the map to the south of Argesukov, near the coast.
The enemy's Southern Army Group's First Armored Cluster, the southernmost pincer of the entire pincer movement, had already penetrated 40 kilometers into our defenses.
Looking at the map, the defensive sector of the 35th Army Group, which was originally responsible for blocking the First Armored Cluster, had been split in two by the enemy like a sweet potato.
