By the 20th of October, the 21st Tank Brigade had edged forward towards the main road, but 29th Army was pulling away from it. The 29th Army resumed its push, getting two divisions across the Volga on 22nd of October while the German 161st Infantry attacked them from the northeast and the 162nd Infantry from the southwest. With Kalinin almost surrounded on the 24th, the Soviets attempted to link up their forces as the October rains began to fall.
