00:00:15,237 --> 00:00:18,574
Russia. Summer of 1942

3
00:00:23,579 --> 00:00:25,977
The Germans are advancing again�.

4
00:00:32,859 --> 00:00:36,925
The 6th army, Hitler's largest, victorious 
in France,

5
00:00:37,134 --> 00:00:42,347
almost victorious in the first mission to Russia
he has a new task

6
00:00:42,869 --> 00:00:46,727
break through to the east.

7
00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:50,272
To divide Russia into two parts,
near the Volga

8
00:00:53,850 --> 00:01:00,073
A world at war

9
00:01:09,562 --> 00:01:17,290
Stalingrad

10
00:01:17,591 --> 00:01:24,056
June 1942 - February 1943

11
00:01:50,958 --> 00:01:56,260
Germany's plan is to defeat Russia in 
in one burst of Blitzkrieg, 1941

12
00:01:55,754 --> 00:01:57,214
failed

13
00:01:58,070 --> 00:02:00,342
The attempt stopped
millions of soldiers' lives

14
00:02:00,968 --> 00:02:05,034
In 1942, they did not have enough strength, even
with the help of his allies,

15
00:02:05,243 --> 00:02:07,537
to attack along the entire front.

16
00:02:07,745 --> 00:02:10,769
Hitler turned south,
in the Caucasus,

17
00:02:11,916 --> 00:02:14,210
where three quarters of the findings were
Russian oil.

18
00:02:15,044 --> 00:02:17,338
He divided his troops
in two parts:

19
00:02:18,068 --> 00:02:22,343
6th Army and 4th Panzer Army
should advance first.

20
00:02:25,140 --> 00:02:29,746
The plan was to surround and destroy
Soviet troops near the Don,

21
00:02:30,163 --> 00:02:32,979
continue east
in the direction of Stalingrad

22
00:02:33,083 --> 00:02:35,690
in order to isolate the Caucasus
from the rest of the country.

23
00:02:37,150 --> 00:02:40,670
Then, in the main attack,
other armies

24
00:02:40,591 --> 00:02:44,761
were to attack Rostov and the oil fields
in the south.

25
00:02:47,994 --> 00:02:52,790
The offensive started later. 
It was late summer, the 6th Army,

26
00:02:52,895 --> 00:02:55,918
which was commanded by Friedrich von Paulus set off.
He started deploying the troops.

27
00:02:56,231 --> 00:02:58,525
Tanks forward,
as was usual.

28
00:02:59,776 --> 00:03:03,009
Then motorized logistics

29
00:03:08,952 --> 00:03:12,289
The infantry was coming from behind.

30
00:03:20,631 --> 00:03:24,690
At first, it seemed
how the Russians gave up.

31
00:03:24,906 --> 00:03:30,328
No matter how far the 6th Army went, 
The Red Army was fleeing.

32
00:03:49,305 --> 00:03:51,808
The Germans did not capture
many soldiers.

33
00:03:52,746 --> 00:03:55,650
They occupied territories and cities

34
00:04:09,742 --> 00:04:13,913
The army wanted to surround the Russians
but they did not succeed in this

35
00:04:15,190 --> 00:04:19,752
The troops had to occasionally stop with 
advance and wait for supplies.

36
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:26,843
Soldier, Wilhelm Hoffman,
he wrote a diary.

37
00:04:28,094 --> 00:04:30,492
He thought the war would end
soon.

38
00:04:30,701 --> 00:04:33,970
"Maybe they'll let us go."
home for God," he wrote.

39
00:05:28,884 --> 00:05:32,221
The Russians lost
250 thousand soldiers in the spring.

40
00:05:32,638 --> 00:05:37,538
When they couldn't win trench warfare, 
they would continue to retreat.

41
00:05:40,750 --> 00:05:43,899
For the Russian generals, they were
planned and smart retreats.

42
00:05:46,250 --> 00:05:49,008
For Russian soldiers, it was
demoralizing.

43
00:05:50,259 --> 00:05:53,492
For Hitler, it was
a hint of a great victory.

44
00:05:54,535 --> 00:05:57,767
He thought that he would wipe out Red 
army from the face of the earth

45
00:06:00,165 --> 00:06:03,293
Then, when there is an offensive 
lasted for two weeks,

46
00:06:03,502 --> 00:06:06,317
he started switching 
troops to the south.

47
00:06:06,838 --> 00:06:11,218
At the end of June, German troops entered 
are in Rostov, the gateway to the Caucasus.

48
00:06:51,466 --> 00:06:56,520
Hitler gave top priority to capture 
oil fields.

49
00:06:57,931 --> 00:07:00,538
He formed a new army

50
00:07:01,581 --> 00:07:04,083
4th Panzer Army 
headed south.

51
00:07:04,605 --> 00:07:08,254
He took fuel and most of the tanks from the 6th Army

52
00:07:09,150 --> 00:07:10,027
and he also sent them to the south.

53
00:07:10,652 --> 00:07:14,510
But first he waited for the 6th Army
finish the work started.

54
00:07:16,491 --> 00:07:20,245
In the middle of August, the 6th Army was six 
marched on Russia for weeks.

55
00:07:20,558 --> 00:07:24,520
At the end of the afternoon 23 days 8 months, one
the column reached the Volga,

56
00:07:24,625 --> 00:07:26,501
north of Stalingrad.

57
00:07:27,023 --> 00:07:31,298
They cut off traffic and 
opened fire.

58
00:07:34,113 --> 00:07:38,701
Pje�adija je iskopala rovove kraj pruge,
and waited for reinforcements

59
00:07:48,815 --> 00:07:52,152
Although it is the initial mission
of the 6th Army was closed,

60
00:07:52,460 --> 00:07:55,700
Hitler expected that
subjugate the whole city.

61
00:07:57,261 --> 00:08:01,119
Stalingrad was built on 
the banks of the Volga,

62
00:08:01,328 --> 00:08:05,790
It is 25 km wide.

63
00:08:07,167 --> 00:08:10,504
The western part was the old part of the city,
with wooden houses and barracks;

64
00:08:10,921 --> 00:08:14,153
the center was modern,
made of stone and iron;

65
00:08:14,570 --> 00:08:19,680
in the north, he had three large ones 
factories and houses of workers.

66
00:08:21,348 --> 00:08:25,727
The whole city lies on hilly land, 
with plains

67
00:08:26,457 --> 00:08:30,524
Stalin named it after himself.

68
00:08:35,842 --> 00:08:38,761
He was determined 
in defense city.

69
00:08:39,595 --> 00:08:42,619
He decided not to evacuate
most civilians.

70
00:08:43,036 --> 00:08:47,624
He said that the soldiers would fight better 
for a living rather than a dead city.

71
00:08:58,677 --> 00:09:01,284
They made an improvised one
anti-aircraft defense.

72
00:09:01,730 --> 00:09:04,970
Half the anti-aircraft guns
managed by women.

73
00:09:06,780 --> 00:09:08,583
They were recruited 
into military service.

74
00:09:08,687 --> 00:09:12,024
Stalin had a motto
 �Not a step back.� 

75
00:09:12,336 --> 00:09:15,465
The army and police patrolled the streets.

77
00:09:22,138 --> 00:09:26,934
There was a fear of the Germans,
but also patriotism and communist resistance.

78
00:09:33,086 --> 00:09:35,485
Comrades and citizens
Stalingrad,

79
00:09:35,693 --> 00:09:40,907
we have to dedicate everything
defense of our beloved city,

80
00:09:41,115 --> 00:09:44,035
our homes
and our families.

81
00:09:44,765 --> 00:09:48,936
We will build barricades on every street,
we will convert every part,

82
00:09:49,144 --> 00:09:53,628
every city block, every house
in defense points. �

83
00:10:15,733 --> 00:10:21,051
The 6th Army did not reach the Volga with the necessary supplies 
forces for the occupation of Stalingrad.

84
00:10:26,890 --> 00:10:29,497
There are still reserves 
were far behind.

85
00:10:41,300 --> 00:10:43,886
The Luftwaffe was called in,
to help the troops on the ground.

86
00:10:48,161 --> 00:10:50,664
During three days
starting on August 23,

87
00:10:50,873 --> 00:10:54,209
all available aircraft
they attacked the city on the Russian front.

88
00:11:01,300 --> 00:11:04,845
The only defense came from
torpedo boats on the Volga

89
00:11:05,053 --> 00:11:07,139
and anti-aircraft guns
on the opposite side.

90
00:14:29,529 --> 00:14:32,240
The city did not fall under
by Aryan attacks

91
00:14:33,330 --> 00:14:36,098
though the buildings were reduced to dust.

92
00:14:43,188 --> 00:14:44,961
At the beginning of September,

93
00:14:45,169 --> 00:14:49,340
Russian artillery could attack
Germans at the eastern end of the Volga.

94
00:14:51,530 --> 00:14:56,326
But Russian reserves were useless if 
they could not cross the Volga.

95
00:14:56,535 --> 00:14:59,037
There were no bridges, and during the day

96
00:14:59,246 --> 00:15:02,791
ships crossing the Volga were 
under constant attack by the Luftwaffe

97
00:15:03,312 --> 00:15:06,336
As long as the Russians had enough 
manpower, they could send troops into the city

98
00:15:06,545 --> 00:15:11,028
After crossing the river,

99
00:15:11,133 --> 00:15:14,052
they used dug tunnels
on the banks of the Volga

100
00:15:14,157 --> 00:15:16,659
forcing the Germans to fight for each 
inch of land.

101
00:15:21,977 --> 00:15:24,600
Germany is an army
retained the initiative,

102
00:15:25,314 --> 00:15:28,859
but they were running out
valuable supplies.

103
00:15:30,319 --> 00:15:32,717
They are all troops
sent on the offensive.

104
00:15:33,030 --> 00:15:36,158
They had no backup
in case something goes wrong.

105
00:15:41,893 --> 00:15:45,646
The first German attacks started
at the beginning of September.

106
00:15:48,253 --> 00:15:51,280
11 September. Wilhelm Hoffman:

107
00:15:51,173 --> 00:15:54,301
Our battalions are fighting
in the suburbs of Stalingrad.

108
00:15:54,509 --> 00:15:59,514
The explosions were constant
Fire and flames can be seen everywhere.

109
00:15:59,932 --> 00:16:05,145
Russian cannons and machine guns 
they fight back from the burning city. Fanatic!

110
00:17:48,999 --> 00:17:51,189
Hoffman, September 16:

111
00:17:51,710 --> 00:17:55,450
Our battalion and tanks attack the silo

112
00:17:55,777 --> 00:18:00,677
The battalion suffers heavy losses.
There are no people in the ruins,

113
00:18:00,886 --> 00:18:04,223
but demons that cannot be destroyed by bullets
or flames.

114
00:18:05,161 --> 00:18:09,645
September 18: The fight is on
continues inside the ruins.

115
00:18:10,166 --> 00:18:13,503
If all the buildings of Stalingrad 
they will defend like this

116
00:18:13,711 --> 00:18:16,214
none of our soldiers
will not return to Germany.

117
00:18:18,195 --> 00:18:22,887
September 20: The fight
for the silo continues.

118
00:18:25,494 --> 00:18:30,082
September 22: Russian resistance in the silo is broken.

119
00:18:30,603 --> 00:18:33,210
Find the troops
are advancing towards the Volga.

120
00:18:34,461 --> 00:18:38,945
We found 40 Russians
soldiers in the silo environment - all dead.

121
00:18:41,343 --> 00:18:46,452
1,600 km away, the generals of the German army 
they begin to doubt their success.

122
00:18:46,765 --> 00:18:49,685
Commander, General Halder,

123
00:18:49,893 --> 00:18:54,230
he has not resisted so far 
On Hitler's instructions.

124
00:18:53,751 --> 00:18:57,860
Now, when they are 
reach the initial goals,

125
00:18:57,609 --> 00:19:00,320
he advised caution, and slow progress.

126
00:19:01,154 --> 00:19:03,970
Halder wrote:

127
00:19:04,595 --> 00:19:08,141
The F�hrer was moving his hands
in large arcs around the map.

128
00:19:08,558 --> 00:19:10,330
They need temptation here, and here and here!

129
00:19:10,539 --> 00:19:13,980
He was not interested in practical obstacles in 
realization of plans.

130
00:19:15,127 --> 00:19:19,819
Halder denied responsibility
to advance with the arrival of winter.

131
00:19:20,236 --> 00:19:25,450
Hitler replied: we need
national-socialist persistence

132
00:19:25,658 --> 00:19:29,970
instead of professional capacities
for the decision on the Eastern Front.

133
00:19:29,621 --> 00:19:32,540
It was clear that he would not
expect that from me.

134
00:19:34,104 --> 00:19:37,858
Hitler fired Halder and replaced him
General Zeitzler,

135
00:19:38,066 --> 00:19:40,569
who was considered a genius
for logistics,

136
00:19:40,777 --> 00:19:45,574
and wise enough to move the troops
where Hitler wanted them.

137
00:19:51,204 --> 00:19:55,688
In Stalingrad, the commander
The 6th Army also had doubts.

138
00:19:56,001 --> 00:19:59,129
The soldiers of von Paulus were not ready for 
hand-to-hand combat

139
00:19:59,338 --> 00:20:00,902
in a bombed city.

140
00:20:10,750 --> 00:20:13,990
Here, their tanks
they made progress with small steps.

141
00:20:13,518 --> 00:20:16,959
Nevertheless, Hitler insisted, demanded
defeat the city.

142
00:20:55,644 --> 00:21:01,483
We retreat from building to building, 
turning them into powder.

143
00:21:02,943 --> 00:21:06,280
I am an abandoned soldier
positions held:

144
00:21:06,690 --> 00:21:11,076
just as the ground beneath him blazed, 
and the clothes were burning. � 

145
00:21:34,224 --> 00:21:38,812
On September 26, Hoffman complained about the way 
to which the Soviets are fighting:

146
00:21:40,272 --> 00:21:45,660
We don't see them. They hid in
houses, buildings

147
00:21:45,590 --> 00:21:49,344
in all directions,
including our background.

148
00:21:49,761 --> 00:21:52,680
Barbarians! They use
criminal methods!

149
00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:04,463
Zeitzler, the new manager
of Hitler's general staff,

150
00:22:04,671 --> 00:22:07,670
he studied the situation in detail
and said to him:

151
00:22:07,904 --> 00:22:10,928
The most dangerous position 
on the eastern front

152
00:22:11,032 --> 00:22:12,596
is Stalingrad, to the north is the 6th Army,

153
00:22:12,804 --> 00:22:15,620
and the 4th Panzer Army
in the east.

154
00:22:15,933 --> 00:22:20,938
If the situation is not rectified quickly, 
we will have a disaster.

155
00:22:21,980 --> 00:22:23,544
Hitler replied:

156
00:22:23,649 --> 00:22:26,881
That's rather pessimistic, Zeitzler.
There on the eastern front

157
00:22:27,090 --> 00:22:31,052
we have been through much more dangerous situations
and we survived.

158
00:22:31,260 --> 00:22:33,763
The difficulty will end.

159
00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:37,829
German positions were threatened.

160
00:22:39,081 --> 00:22:43,020
20 thousand people lost
weekly in Stalingrad.

161
00:22:42,730 --> 00:22:47,840
They could only be replaced with new ones
ranks of the German army

162
00:22:49,091 --> 00:22:51,489
The Romanians advanced here.

163
00:22:52,949 --> 00:22:58,267
The Italians dominated this area.
Next to them, there were Hungarians.

164
00:22:59,831 --> 00:23:02,333
The most precious position

165
00:23:02,542 --> 00:23:05,253
was where the Russians dominated
on both ends of the Don River.

166
00:23:05,461 --> 00:23:07,859
They faced 
Romanian Third Army,

167
00:23:08,068 --> 00:23:10,988
which had no tanks or
anti-tank weapon.

168
00:23:13,710 --> 00:23:15,054
Hitler was not worried.

169
00:23:15,263 --> 00:23:18,808
He thought, and tall officials
the commands were confirmed,

170
00:23:18,912 --> 00:23:21,832
that the Russians no longer have
strategic reserves.

171
00:23:25,168 --> 00:23:29,027
in October, the Germans start again
in the direction of the Volga

172
00:23:30,173 --> 00:23:32,572
Unless they occupy
the entire river bank,

173
00:23:33,093 --> 00:23:36,638
The Russians could bring reinforcements
overnight.

174
00:24:01,768 --> 00:24:04,062
Wilhelm Hoffman, October 4:

175
00:24:04,791 --> 00:24:09,067
A lot of new machine guns appeared in Russian hands.
Where do they get them from?

176
00:24:10,839 --> 00:24:12,612
Another German wondered:

177
00:24:12,820 --> 00:24:17,095
Are we going to have to fight
after the terrible Russian winter?

178
00:24:20,328 --> 00:24:22,517
Hoffman wrote
October 14:

179
00:24:23,247 --> 00:24:27,314
We have been doing fantastic since morning.
Our planes are full of ammunition

180
00:24:28,030 --> 00:24:30,338
and bomb Russian targets
every hour, constantly.

181
00:25:04,956 --> 00:25:07,041
Commander of the Panzer Army
Wiener, wrote:

182
00:25:07,250 --> 00:25:09,961
Stalingrad is no longer a city

183
00:25:10,691 --> 00:25:14,549
By day, it is a huge cloud of smoke

184
00:25:15,487 --> 00:25:19,866
illuminated by fire.

185
00:25:20,805 --> 00:25:26,123
As the night falls, one of those bright ones 
of Stalingrad nights, bloody and reeking of gunpowder,

186
00:25:26,540 --> 00:25:31,023
dogs jump into the Volga and desperately swim to the other end.

187
00:25:31,649 --> 00:25:34,256
Stalingrad Nights
are too scary for them.

188
00:25:34,464 --> 00:25:37,071
Animals escape from this hell.

189
00:25:38,114 --> 00:25:41,138
The strongest stones 
he can't stand it anymore.

190
00:25:41,763 --> 00:25:43,849
But the man remains.

191
00:26:18,258 --> 00:26:20,761
Hoffman, October 22:

192
00:26:21,491 --> 00:26:26,808
Who would have thought after three months
instead of looking forward to victory,

193
00:26:27,226 --> 00:26:30,979
we have to suffer
such sacrifice and torture,

194
00:26:31,810 --> 00:26:33,795
with no end in sight?

195
00:26:34,942 --> 00:26:40,051
The soldiers called Stalingrad
mass grave of the Wehrmacht.

196
00:26:43,596 --> 00:26:45,786
Far from
Stalingrad,

197
00:26:45,890 --> 00:26:50,165
long columns of tanks
arrive in Russia that fall,

198
00:26:50,999 --> 00:26:56,734
but only a few were for Stalingrad,
just enough to defend the city from falling.

199
00:26:57,256 --> 00:27:01,843
The rest was used for joining
north and south of the city.

200
00:27:18,318 --> 00:27:21,863
The news was telling people what it was
the Russian leaders wanted it to be known:

201
00:27:22,072 --> 00:27:25,722
all the way from Moscow to Georgia.

202
00:27:45,741 --> 00:27:49,760
Women wrote letters to soldiers about how 
the production of weapons is progressing

203
00:27:51,164 --> 00:27:54,083
or orders they had to carry out

204
00:27:54,709 --> 00:27:57,941
Special messengers delivered it to them

205
00:28:04,198 --> 00:28:08,150
Mlade� could look at the tanks

207
00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:16,189
Groups of workers could buy their own 
own Sturmovik

208
00:28:16,820 --> 00:28:20,060
and send them to Hitler's attackers

209
00:28:21,715 --> 00:28:26,824
But the message was clear
The terrible days of killing were over.

210
00:28:27,137 --> 00:28:30,474
Now, finally, the Red Army won everything 
What else is needed in sufficient quantities.

211
00:28:31,970 --> 00:28:34,645
When it seemed like it would 
Stalingrad endure,

212
00:28:34,853 --> 00:28:36,730
his generals were recorded.

213
00:28:41,735 --> 00:28:45,176
General Yeremenko, commander
Stalingrad Front,

214
00:28:45,489 --> 00:28:47,887
he distributed the medals.

215
00:28:51,745 --> 00:28:54,769
Stalin's speeches 
constantly read to the soldiers.

216
00:28:56,750 --> 00:28:59,044
There was even a Stalingrad Oath:

217
00:28:59,461 --> 00:29:05,092
His burnt houses, ruins, 
the same stones, are sacred.� 

218
00:29:10,305 --> 00:29:11,974
The war continues.

219
00:29:14,893 --> 00:29:18,647
The Russians transport turpe across the Volga and the Don
boats

220
00:29:18,855 --> 00:29:21,984
and pushed them onto the bridge barriers 
which they kept until the summer.

221
00:29:29,330 --> 00:29:31,472
The Russians made trenches and waited.

222
00:29:58,791 --> 00:30:02,024
By then, the Germans occupied nine tenths of the city.

223
00:30:02,336 --> 00:30:07,029
November 8, Hitler
gave a speech.

224
00:30:10,500 --> 00:30:15,266
We have reached the Volga, period
where is a certain city,

225
00:30:15,550 --> 00:30:17,456
which has Stalin's name.

226
00:30:18,707 --> 00:30:21,314
We wanted to subdue him and we succeeded.

227
00:30:21,939 --> 00:30:25,902
The city is ours, except for a few enemies
which still offer resistance.

228
00:30:29,655 --> 00:30:32,679
People wondered
why wasn't it done sooner.

229
00:30:32,784 --> 00:30:37,180
Well, I prefer to do the work
small attacks.

230
00:30:36,642 --> 00:30:38,623
Time does not play a role.

231
00:31:14,492 --> 00:31:17,620
But it was time
key for the Germans.

232
00:31:19,288 --> 00:31:23,981
Right before Hitler's speech,
Russian winter has begun.

233
00:31:39,934 --> 00:31:42,228
The Germans knew
what awaits them.

234
00:31:42,749 --> 00:31:47,754
soon, the temperature dropped to 30, 40
or 50 degrees below zero.

235
00:31:48,693 --> 00:31:52,030
Equipment and soldiers will freeze

236
00:32:00,788 --> 00:32:02,665
But the Russians did not stop.

237
00:32:17,140 --> 00:32:19,244
The Russians tried 
to bring reinforcements secretly

238
00:32:19,453 --> 00:32:21,747
but not all the personnel and equipment could 
deploy only during the night

239
00:32:21,955 --> 00:32:25,083
- it is not easy to hide almost 750 thousand soldiers

240
00:32:30,818 --> 00:32:32,278
November 10,

241
00:32:32,486 --> 00:32:37,075
von Paulus asked Hitler to 
leave Stalingrad.

242
00:32:37,909 --> 00:32:39,994
Hitler ordered a continuation of the attack.

243
00:32:43,331 --> 00:32:45,520
The Russians continued to strengthen their ranks.

244
00:33:04,498 --> 00:33:07,522
November 19,
The Russians attacked.

245
00:33:15,550 --> 00:33:20,660
They attacked the Romanians in the north
and two days later in the south.

246
00:33:21,911 --> 00:33:25,550
Russian tanks were passing by

247
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:51,315
Russian plans were ambitious

248
00:33:51,628 --> 00:33:55,695
Two divisions should pass through the Romanian ones 
linije i sastati se u  Kalachu.

249
00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:59,344
Thus, the 6th Army would be
cut off

250
00:34:00,700 --> 00:34:04,558
They would reduce the "d�ep" around Stalingrad and 
then attacked the southeast,

251
00:34:04,767 --> 00:34:08,624
in the direction of Rostov, cut off everything 
Germans in the Caucasus.

252
00:34:12,630 --> 00:34:17,680
After only 4 days of offensive, two 
the Russian divisions met.

253
00:34:18,322 --> 00:34:21,241
Everything happened too fast, so it wasn't recorded

254
00:34:21,554 --> 00:34:24,265
However, it was recorded afterwards.

255
00:34:58,570 --> 00:35:02,115
the Russians estimated how they cut off 
about 75 thousand Germans.

256
00:35:02,741 --> 00:35:06,286
Actually, 250 thousand
people were isolated:

257
00:35:06,599 --> 00:35:10,666
the entire 6th Army,
part of the 4th Panzer Army,

258
00:35:10,874 --> 00:35:14,941
rununjski, hrvatski pa �ak i ruski volonteri.

259
00:35:15,566 --> 00:35:19,633
The commander who was at the scene, 
von Paulus, asked for permission to escape.

260
00:35:20,467 --> 00:35:25,530
Hitler ordered him to stay where he was.
He will send troops to break the Russian wall.

261
00:35:25,785 --> 00:35:27,766
He sent an encouraging message:

262
00:35:27,975 --> 00:35:31,103
I know that the brave 6th Army will
and her commander

263
00:35:32,041 --> 00:35:34,544
fulfill your task.

264
00:35:44,762 --> 00:35:46,848
But the army would continue if it had something to eat.

265
00:35:51,644 --> 00:35:54,772
Goering,
commander of the Luftwaffe.

266
00:35:55,606 --> 00:36:00,880
This year, his planes brought 
supplies to an isolated army for 60 days

267
00:36:00,507 --> 00:36:04,991
with fuel, ammunition and food. I estimated yes 
its planes can again perform such a task.

268
00:36:05,721 --> 00:36:09,787
If the weather is good,
and the distance is not too great,

269
00:36:09,892 --> 00:36:12,790
they could transport 500 tons of supplies per day

270
00:36:16,878 --> 00:36:18,755
Hitler thought that would be enough,

271
00:36:19,172 --> 00:36:24,072
though he knew such an army needed 
najmanje 800 tona.

272
00:36:42,945 --> 00:36:44,718
The Russians were waiting.

273
00:36:57,543 --> 00:37:00,150
They bombed transport planes.

274
00:37:08,909 --> 00:37:10,160
Time was of great importance.

275
00:37:15,999 --> 00:37:19,232
Air support could only be provided
tenth of the necessary help

276
00:37:19,857 --> 00:37:23,507
although on one occasion she delivered pepper

277
00:37:23,715 --> 00:37:26,009
and 12 contraceptive boxes

278
00:37:33,934 --> 00:37:38,626
The Russians did not directly attack the 250 thousand 
besieged soldiers

279
00:37:38,730 --> 00:37:40,840
They didn't have enough power.

280
00:37:40,607 --> 00:37:45,091
Instead, they moved west, and
The further they moved

281
00:37:45,195 --> 00:37:48,845
the distance of the German troops was greater
cut off near Stalingrad

282
00:37:49,053 --> 00:37:51,034
and their rescuers

283
00:38:31,804 --> 00:38:36,809
Opkoljeni vojnici su bili pothla�eni i 
hungry, but they had confidence

284
00:38:37,226 --> 00:38:41,293
They were sitting, ready to take them
the rescuers take them to safety.

285
00:38:42,649 --> 00:38:47,132
But they never arrived.

286
00:38:48,300 --> 00:38:52,033
They turned back
in the face of a new threat on the southern front.

287
00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:03,503
The surrounded Germans were left alone in the fight.

288
00:39:16,745 --> 00:39:18,934
The Russians had the advantage.

289
00:39:19,247 --> 00:39:22,897
Even the quality of medical work 
showed that. Wounded Germans,

290
00:39:23,105 --> 00:39:26,755
with the exception of those who were transferred by plane 
houses, were dying in the trenches.

291
00:39:27,485 --> 00:39:31,656
The Russians in the city recovered much better.

292
00:39:58,558 --> 00:40:03,667
Sada su rusi dominirali zrakom.

293
00:40:08,255 --> 00:40:13,110
Hitler was blinded by Stalingradon.
Russians too.

294
00:40:13,051 --> 00:40:16,180
They could leave people surrounded 
who would die of hunger or winter.

295
00:40:16,730 --> 00:40:19,970
Instead, 
they placed the 7th Army around the "d�epa".

296
00:40:27,545 --> 00:40:30,569
In Stalingrad, the fight continues

297
00:40:30,881 --> 00:40:33,488
just as bloody.

298
00:41:04,650 --> 00:41:06,125
On Christmas Eve, Germany,

299
00:41:06,334 --> 00:41:10,713
the radio sent a message to all
To the living troops in Stalingrad:

300
00:41:11,130 --> 00:41:14,571
Attention! Stalingrad is calling!

301
00:41:14,780 --> 00:41:19,140
This is Stalingrad.
Front on the Volga.

302
00:41:18,534 --> 00:41:22,704
But that was false. Broadcasting from the city 
had stopped a week before.

303
00:41:39,179 --> 00:41:44,288
On Bo�i�, Moscow Radio broadcast
for the Germans in Stalingrad:

304
00:41:45,227 --> 00:41:48,668
Every seven seconds, in Russia in Stalingrad 
a German soldier dies

305
00:41:49,189 --> 00:41:51,692
Stalingrad is a mass grave.� 

306
00:41:57,114 --> 00:42:01,076
The message was repeated constantly throughout the day

307
00:42:29,542 --> 00:42:32,045
Germans now eat raw horse meat

308
00:42:33,850 --> 00:42:37,049
On January 8, the Russians offered surrender conditions:

309
00:42:37,258 --> 00:42:39,865
heating, medical care and food.

310
00:42:40,595 --> 00:42:43,950
Officers could keep their uniforms.

311
00:42:50,083 --> 00:42:54,463
Hitler refused. Day after day,
The 6th Army is resisting, he said.

313
00:43:02,074 --> 00:43:05,307
January 10:
the last Russian attack.

314
00:43:13,649 --> 00:43:16,047
they thought it would last four days

315
00:43:40,238 --> 00:43:42,949
However, after two weeks, the fighting continues

316
00:44:02,239 --> 00:44:05,471
January 24, von Paulus
Hitler's message:

317
00:44:06,201 --> 00:44:12,040
The soldiers are without ammunition and food.
Nije mogu�e zapovijedati.

318
00:44:12,874 --> 00:44:17,671
Inevitable defeat. 
He is again asking for permission to surrender

319
00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:20,695
to save the remaining soldiers.

320
00:44:22,676 --> 00:44:24,761
However, Hitler forbade surrender:

321
00:44:25,700 --> 00:44:30,600
The 6th Army will fulfill its historical mission 
role until the last man

322
00:44:36,648 --> 00:44:42,070
But the soldiers and officers have already begun to surrender.

323
00:46:05,696 --> 00:46:10,596
On January 31, Hitler nominated
von Paulus for Field Marshal,

324
00:46:11,118 --> 00:46:15,780
knowing that no German marshal 
not captured �iv.

325
00:46:27,175 --> 00:46:29,991
The same day he was promoted,
von Paulus se predao.

326
00:46:35,204 --> 00:46:39,271
Russians have never seen a general of such a class.

327
00:46:40,001 --> 00:46:44,484
General Shumilov, who accepted 
teaching, he did not believe.

328
00:46:45,319 --> 00:46:48,551
That's why he asked Paulus  
proof of your identity.

329
00:46:49,072 --> 00:46:52,930
He later proved that he really was.

330
00:46:53,869 --> 00:46:57,205
Yes it really is
field marshal.

331
00:47:02,628 --> 00:47:07,528
von Paulus survived. He even proposed 
toast to the victorious Red Army.

332
00:47:11,330 --> 00:47:13,680
Hitler expected him to commit suicide.

333
00:47:24,525 --> 00:47:28,487
It was no ordinary defeat.
It was a disaster

334
00:48:10,821 --> 00:48:15,617
two German armies,
24 generals, 2000 officers

335
00:48:16,243 --> 00:48:19,058
and 90 thousand imprisoned soldiers

336
00:48:20,309 --> 00:48:22,812
