There were only 23 Soviet soldiers in the Pavlov Building, so why did the Germans have to go through so much trouble?

There were only 23 people in the building that Pavlov held, but because of the strict defenses, it took a lot of work for the Germans.

When the situation in northern Europe was difficult to open up during World War II, Germany's then supreme leader, the head of state, set his sights on southern Europe. In 1941, Germany reorganized its southern army into Group A and Group B. In 1942 The plan to attack the south was finalized in 2008. Army Group A was the main attack, and Group B Group responded from the side and advanced into Siberia in a mighty manner.

The German army fought very cautiously and captured 100,000 Soviet troops in a flash in Sevastopol. Under the leadership of Marshal Southern, the Soviet army quickly assembled 45 divisions from the southwest and southeast, and then After a long journey to the northeast of the German army, they launched a brazen attack and regained the lost ground within three days. At that time, the Soviet leadership was extremely happy and praised his subordinates. However, the German army took advantage of the fact that almost all Soviet troops were gathered in the northeast, and used camouflage to trap the vanguard troops. As a decoy, the army circled to the south of the Soviet army and overthrew the Soviet temporary command post in one fell swoop. This battle resulted in a shortage of Soviet reserve forces, making it unable to counterattack later.

In this way, with the help of excellent fortifications, the Soviet army made the German army suffer a lot.
