Germany - The Fall Of Leningrad - 06 May to 23 May 1941

06 May 1941: The 5 Soviet divisions N. of Daugavpils are about to die.
10 May 1941: The victorious troops are ordered to the Battle of Leningrad.
The Soviets are 21 % towards capitulation and have almost 1 million casualties.
14 May 1941: Get well, soon.
15 May 1941: The Focus U-Boot Effort has been completed and we receive Cruiser Submarine technoloy for free.
My next Focus is Air Innovations II.
We just sank 11 Soviet Submarines.
I cancel all Steel imports from France.
Instead I import more Chromium from France.
My Destroyer and Light Cruiser production.
Czechoslovakia offers 15 divisions for the Russian campaign and I accept.
Here are 12 of them and I place them in training.
The trained 1. jezdecká brigáda is assigned to 4. Panzerarmee. 
The 17. divize is placed in training....
....and the 1. jezdecká  divize is assigned to 4. Panzerarmee....
....as is the 3. jezdecká  divize.
That's not a smart move.
In the South a Soviet pocket of 5 divisions is about to be neutralized.
I start a new attack to capture Gomel.
16-18 May 1941: Further North I start a 2-Army attack to capture Novgorod. Research has also completed on Range Improvements.
22 May 1941: I decide to research 1940 Submarine Hull from Blohm & Voss next.
My current Research projects.
I decide to ramp up the production Panzer IV A Medium Panzer.
I import Steel from France again.
23 Mar 1941: Great! Leningrad has fallen.
The liberation of Viipuri, Finland's second largest city, is the next objective.
