	Rzhev - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Rzhev rivals Toropets as the oldest town of the region.
		Their neighbours from Toropets, on the other hand, give more credence to Rzhev's first mention in a major chronicle under 1216, when it was in possession of Mstislav the Bold, Prince of Toropets.
		Whatever the truth may be, it is clear that medieval Rzhev was bitterly contested by three regional powers—the Republic of Novgorod, the Princedom of Smolensk, and the Grand Princedom of Vladimir-Suzdal.

	Toropets-Kholm Operation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The failure to predict this attack, coupled with multiple demands on the German reserves, gave the Soviet Front command an opening which it exploited to the most, driving deep into the German rear.
		The tank support for such an operation was very weak on the Soviet side, especially compared to the requirements of the doctrine of Deep Operations, and the practice later in the war, showing the dearth of resources in the Soviet arsenal at this low point of Soviet fortunes in the war.
		Its first regiment, the 189th Infantry under Colonel Hohmeyer together with the 2nd Battalion of Artillery Regiment 181 and the 3rd Company of the Engineer Battalion 181, was immediately ordered to detrain at Toropets and Andreapol.
