Soviet Storm: World War II in the East | The Battle of Moscow (Episode 4)

Episode 4: From the very first days of the war the USSR capital had been preparing its defense. Institutions and plants, embassies and ministries were evacuated. In order to organize the defense of Moscow and stifle the German offensive, Marshal Zhukov was called from Leningrad to Moscow.

October 1941, Germany's Army Group Center is only some 25 km west of Moscow. The Russian winter, however, is only a few weeks away. With not enough soldiers or military equipment, the Soviet high command's only hope left is that the weather will save the capital. The battle ends in a bloody failure for the German Army, and it is forced to retreat.
