 Heinz Guderian - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Guderian's panzer group led the "race to the sea" that split the Allied armies in two, depriving the BEF and the French armies in Northern France and Belgium of their fuel, food, spare parts and ammunition.
Guderian's own view on the matter was that he had been victimised by Kluge and at some point so abused Kluge with accusations related to his dismissal that he provoked Kluge into challenging him to a duel, which Hitler naturally forbade.
Guderian surrendered to American troops on May 10, 1945, and remained in U.S. custody as a prisoner of war until his release on June 17, 1948.

Guderian was not anti-Semite like so many Germans, but he simply didn't care about them.
When Guderian was imprisoned in Neustadt and Allendorf in Hessia, he was asked as nearly all high-ranking officers were, to work for the U.S.-Army Historical Division (German section).
Though Guderian was in function (ordered-to-do-the business of the Chief of Staff) the highest ranking officer, he went on July 26th 1945 with General Leo Geyr von Schweppenburg, who served under his command for years, to General-Fieldmarshal Wilhelm von Leeb to ask for his permission.

Hitler also presents Guderian with the news that he is to change his Barbarossa plan and pivot his forces 90 degrees southward towards the Ukraine’s wheatfields and oilfields.
Standing in the way of Guderian is General Uli Domotov and elements of the Russian Third Army stationed in a defensive positon around the financial center, Gomel (located betweeen the Dnieper and Sozh rivers just east of the Pripet Marsh).
Guderian’s desires to bypass the town are fleeting as Kidel reveals that Intelligence has confirmed the Russians failure to evacuate substantial gold reserves stored at the Kasmir complex in Gomel.

So, when Guderian was pushed back after failing to capture what to Hitler was "merely a feature of geography", he had practically spoiled the whole Barbarossa (not solely his fault, and he was not the only commander to be sacked at the time).
Guderian, though, really was the first person to actually put these ideas into practice and develop them further.
Guderian in December realised that his Panzerarmee was in danger of being encircled and he took upon himself to conduct a strategic phased withdrawal of his forces.

Inspired by Jim Dunnigan's classic boardgame PANZERGRUPPE GUDERIAN (1976), this is a simulation of the initial German central thrust towards Moscow in July-August 1941.
The computer simulation forces one to assume the role of the field commanders down to the 0-6 level and the minutiae obscures the relevant functional of operational command.
Perhaps the best summary is that this oeuvre may be described as "PANZERGRUPPE GUDERIAN on a battalion scale"; veteran gamers will know what this entails and can decide for themselves as to its intrinsic merits.

The division was withdrawn and marched through to Belgium and took part in the battle of Arras as part of von Kliest armoured Panzergruppe and came up against fierce British tank attacks which for the SS Division at this time was a one sided affair; as they were not equipped with tanks at this time.
Russian resistance was gradually getting more resolute and Guderian's 2nd Panzer gruppe was ordered southwest to Gomel where 2nd Army under Hoth was about to undertake a vast encirclement of Soviet troops.
Later that month in it went on to take part in the capture of the Kiev pocket and when the city was eventually taken on the 26th Guderian's 2nd Panzergruppe had captured five Russian Armies.

 Could the Germans have defeated the russians in WW - Total War Center Forums   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
The skill at which Guderian, von Bock, von Manstein, von Kluge and von Rundstedt directed their armies far eclipsed that of their principal opponents of the early months/years of the war, Buddeny, Timoshenko, and Voroshilov.
These mobile elements included the vaunted Panzergruppe Guderian, which would've proved of far more use to Germans if they had the opportunity to begin their drive on Moscow in early August as opposed to early October.
True there would be rain then as well, but Guderian came very, very close in the in the midst of the most brutal Russian winters in ages, far worse than the mud.Perhaps with the relatively good weather of August and september to drive his tanks, such concerns would be unnecessary.
