Background

On June 22, 1941, Nazi Germany and its allies invaded the Soviet Union, which surprised the Soviet Union and the leadership of the Soviet Red Army. The Germans used blitzkrieg tactics to quickly penetrate Soviet territory. The armored forces advanced in a pincer-like manner, first isolating and then completely destroying the Soviet Red Army.

The German northern army group advanced to Leningrad, while the southern army group conquered Ukraine and Caucasus highlands, while the central army group advanced to Moscow. The defense line of the Soviet Red Army soon collapsed, causing casualties.
