4. Ordu (Sovyetler Birliği): Revizyonlar arasındaki fark

When Nazi Almanyası'nın invasion of the Sovvyetler Birliği commenced on 22 Haziran 1941, the Army was part of the [[Batu Cephesi (SSCB)|Batı Cephesi]] and had the 28. Piyade Kolordusu ([[6. Piyade Tümeni (SSCB)|6. Piyade Tümeni]] ve 42. Piyade Tümeni), 14. Mekanize Kolordu ve 49. ve 75. piyade tümenleri,<ref>Niehorster, [http://orbat.com/site/ww2/drleo/012_ussr/41_oob/western/army_04.html Order of Battle, 22 June 1941]</ref> as well as the 62. Müstahkem Tümeni. GeneralBatı ColonelCephesi Pavlov,komutanı CommanderOrgeneral of(Polkovnik) the[[Dmitriy WesternGrigoreviç Front,Pavlov]] had decided to redeploy some of 4th4. Army’sOrdu's troops early in 1941, and 12th12. RiflePiyade DivisionTümeni was accordingly moved into [[Brest, BelarusBeyaz Rusya|Brest]], andve HQ14. 14thMekanize MechanisedKolordu Corpskarargâahı to [[Kobrin]], which in Erickson’s words, ‘deprived 4th Army simultaneously of its reserve and its second echelon.’<ref>John Erickson, ''Road to Stalingrad'', 2003 Cassel Military Paperbacks edition, p.86-7.</ref> Facing the 4th4. ArmyOrdu across the [[RiverBug BugNehri]] was deployed the German [[Fourth4. ArmyOrdu (GermanyAlmanya)|Fourth4. ArmyOrdu]], with twelveoniki infantrypiyade divisionstümeni andve abir cavalrysüvari divisiontümeni, as well as [[Second2. Panzer GroupOrdusu (GermanyAlmanya)|2. Panzer Group 2Grubu]]. Some units faced several difficulties; when General MajorTümgeneral A. A. KhorobkovHorobkov, the army commander, saw his officers on 10 JuneHaziran, General MajorTümgeneral S.I İ. Oborin, 14th14. MechanisedMekanize CorpsKolordu commanderkomutanı, emphasized that more than half his soldiers were untrained recruits, that his artillery had received guns for which there was no ammunition, and that he only had enough lorries to make a quarter of the corps mobile – the rest would have to march.<ref>Erickson, 2003 edition, p.90-1</ref>

On the eve of the attack, 4th4. ArmyOrdu suffered, as did many Soviet formations, from German communication sabotage. Units lost telephone connections, electrical power, and the [[Brest Fortress]] lost its water supply. From about 5 am on 22 JuneHaziran fierce fighting began around the Brest fortress, but the seven battalions around the fortress, from 28th28. RiflePiyade CorpsKolordusu, were undermanned, disorganized, and slow off the mark to man the defences. Despite these deficiencies the final German reduction of the fortress took some time in the face of determined Soviet resistance. By 1600 hours on 22 JuneHaziran, 4th4. Army HQkarargâhı was back at Zapruda, whereupon Front HQ ordered that 14th14. MechanisedMekanize CorpsKolordu be launched in an attack to clear Brest and reach the frontier line. However the Army staff felt the plan had no chance of success, and so it proved; when the attack was launched the next day, only insignificant progress was made.<ref>Erickson, 2003, p.130-1, 133</ref> Three days later WesternBatı FrontCephesi ordered a general withdrawal to try and keep the frontier armies out of threatened German encirclement; 4th4. ArmyOrdu was directed to fall back on a line from Bytin to [[Pinsk]]. Further instructions came through from Pavlov after a chance meeting later the same day; to cover the concentration of reserve armies on the DnieperDinyeper, 4th4. ArmyOrdu was to hold the Shchara, the [[Slutsk]] ‘fortified district,’ and the Sluch river line. However the Slutsk fortified district, as the district commander reminded KhorobkovHorobkov, had long ago been instructed to dispatch all its weapons to the [[Brest fortress]] (which was continuing to hold). The planned defence was thus practically non-existent, and [[Slutsk]] fell on 27 June.<ref>Erickson, 2003, p.150-2, 155</ref> The Army took part in the defenses of the area around [[Slavgorod|Propoisk]].

At the end of JulyTemmuz [[1941]], the4. Fourth ArmyOrdu began to dissolve. 4. The Fourth ArmyOrdu's staff members were absorbed into the general staff of the [[SovietMerkez CentralCephesi Front(SSCB)|CentralMerkez FrontCephesi]], and the troops were absorbed into other armies.

At the end of SeptemberEylül [[1941]], the Fourth4. ArmyOrdu was formed for the second time, retaining its Independent status until DecemberAralık while remaining in the [[STAVKA Reserve]]. The field staffs of the 52nd52. andve 54th54. Armiesordular were used to fill the command contingent of the Army. The new formation was made up of the 285th285., 292nd,292. andve 311th311.
