Ageev Grigory Antonovich. Ageev Grigory Antonovich: biography Great Patriotic War

Almost every Tula resident will name the name Ageev when asked to remember the heroes of the defense of Tula. But few people will tell you the details of the commissioner’s biography. Not because there is something unheroic about her that had to be hidden. It’s just that, by and large, Tula didn’t even have time to get to know him. Grigory Antonovich died a few days after he arrived at his new duty station.

And his biography is the envy of many. He lived upright, did not bow to bullets, did not give up in the face of difficulties. And the commissar did not discredit the title in any way; if only there were more such commissars.

Commissar Ageev lived in this world for less than forty years. Born in 1902 in Vilno (present-day Vilnius), he died in the fall of 1941 near Tula. His father was a mason and Grigory himself began working at the age of 12, and at 13 he began learning his father’s craft. By this time, the family had already moved from Lithuania to Donbass.

“My father taught, but since my father was extremely rude, he beat me at home and at a construction site,” he wrote in his autobiography. — The family was exceptionally poor, six children. I fled from my family at the age of 15 to the front and served in the old army as a scout, and was also behind German lines, because... I spoke Polish well. My father sent me back to prison several times as a minor, but I ran away again. I work with my father for 3-4 months and run again. I was awarded several times for good intelligence.”

However, there are earlier versions of the autobiography, where there is not a word about the father’s rudeness, and the desire to go to the front is explained by patriotic reasons - after a sermon by a priest calling for the protection and salvation of Russia from the advancing Germans.

At home he left a note: “Don’t look for me, I’ll show up myself.”

And indeed, this act somehow does not really fit with the lines from the autobiography that the reason for the escape was the beating of his father, but it was written in those days when the manifestation of patriotic feelings towards Tsarist Russia was rather compromising, it was certainly not worth boasting about. Just like the military awards received, which are written about very vaguely.

Meanwhile, it is these awards that are worthy of mention - at the front, Grigory Antonovich became a full Knight of St. George. He received his first cross of the IV degree for the episode when he climbed into a German trench and, pulling out a German machine gun along with ribbons, delivered it to his own. The second - for the daring capture of a German company commander and his orderly. The third St. George Cross - for the fact that “Unter Ageev, as part of a machine gun team, did not leave the battle for a month.” And he was awarded the fourth cross of St. George for heavy fighting on the Romanian front near Iasi. In addition to awards, Ageev rose to the rank of senior non-commissioned officer.

According to his recollections, he fled from the army in February 1917, succumbing to the propaganda of a Bolshevik agitator. Although he had just returned to the front, having spent three months in cholera barracks and miraculously survived. But those were different, completely different times.

He didn’t go home right away, and the revolution captured him in Moscow. Then he returned to Donbass, where he saw big changes. My father also plunged headlong into politics, and in July 1917 he was already elected secretary of the local Bolshevik committee and a member of the headquarters for organizing the Red Guard. Using his power, he forbade his son to join the Red Guard - he said that one warrior was enough for a family, and since the father was fighting, then the son should be responsible for the family.

“I, of course, did not agree,” writes Ageev, “but since... I still wasn’t accepted because of my father, so I went to Moscow and there I joined the first Moscow workers’ squad.”

In the Red Army, he didn’t sit out in the rear either. He was wounded on the Kaledin front (and in 1918 Ageev was only sixteen years old), and in the Grodno military hospital he joined the party. After discharge, he was sent to a border regiment near Belgorod, where he was captured by the Austro-Germans. He escaped at Lozovaya station and left for his native land. It was also uneasy here, and he and his father hid together from the whites at the Hecker mine. However, it is not in his nature to sit out for a long time, and Ageev goes to the Yuzovo-Makeevsky partisan detachment. The skills of the former intelligence officer came in handy. In the detachment, he performs the duties of a signalman - he goes to areas occupied by whites and supplies money to the underground.

And then again a civilian - a political fighter of the 2nd company of the first Trans-Dnieper division, political instructor of mounted reconnaissance. Near the station Prishit Ageev was wounded for the second time. After being wounded, his right arm did not work, and after discharge he was dismissed from military service. I was about to go home, but my native Donbass was occupied by the whites, and I returned to my regiment. He retreated, fell ill again, and was sent to Bryansk for treatment. Then he left for the 3rd Special Purpose Cavalry Division. He was the squadron's political instructor and military commissar. Near Komarchi station he was wounded for the third time and sent first to Kaluga, then to Kostroma. And finally he returned to Donbass. But there was no time for a break - he spent 1920 fighting bandits, then at work.

Since 1922, Ageev began to advance along the party line. He was secretary of the Skopinsky district party committee in Mosbass, deputy secretary of the Moscow Region Bureau of the MK party. In the 30s he supervised the construction of coal mines on the BAM route. In September 1937, Kaganovich was appointed head of Glavugol by the People's Commissariat of the Fuel Industry of the USSR. And in 1939 he was sent by the People's Commissariat of Heavy Industry to be authorized to restore and build new coal mines. In November of this year, he took up the position of manager of the BShS (Bureyshakhtostroy) trust. During the years of the 3rd Five-Year Plan, it was planned to build 12 mines in Urgal and create a fuel base to service the Baikal-Amur Mainline and develop the industry of the Far East.

From the description, which was signed in Khabarovsk on May 13, 1939 by the secretary of the UNKTOPPROM party bureau S. Minko:

“Mobile and persistent, energetic and active. He has a keen attitude to work and has administrative abilities. He quickly implements decisions and does not like to postpone them. Hot-tempered at times. Disciplined. Lively and active in communication. He systematically works on himself.”

For his work in the coal industry and, in particular, the construction of new mines in 1939, Ageev was awarded the Order of the Red Banner of Labor. Although in the end it all ended in conflict at BAM - the bureau of the Chekundinsky district party committee decided to remove Ageev from work under the pretext of failure to put the mines into operation. In April 1941, he was recalled to Moscow and was soon appointed to exactly the same position for the construction of mines in the Tula region - head of the department of newly built mines in the Cherepetsky (now Suvorovsky) district. In addition to the mines, it was planned to build a powerful state district power station in the area, for which Ageev was also responsible.

But the war began, and on July 22 he was already the commander of the combined detachment of the people's militia of the Cherepetsky region, whose tasks included fighting enemy saboteurs, missilemen, defusing enemy bombs, and destroying fascist leaflets. Ageev himself suggested making the detachment a consolidated one - that is, from fighters from several detachments created at enterprises in the region, with a single headquarters. He hastily began to conduct combat training for fighters, which will come in handy very soon - when Ageev comes to the Tula workers’ regiment. It was the Suvorov militia that took the first battle on Tula land. This happened on October 20, 1941 between the village of Rozhdestveno and Cherepet station.

The first commissar of the Tula workers' regiment was the third secretary of the city committee and member of the regional committee bureau P. A. Baranov, Zhavoronkov's closest ally. However, he was not delighted with the prospect of being on the front line in the near future, and sabotaged the work as best he could. In the end, the requests of the party chief were heeded, and from October 28 he had the opportunity to conduct safer and more familiar activities - in the city committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks, where there was no shooting, and there was no need to even hide in the trenches. And Ageev was appointed in his place by the regional committee.

“Comrade Ageev arrived at the regiment on the evening of October 29, already having some information about the enemy’s advance, we held a meeting of the regiment’s command staff and set defense tasks,” wrote the commander of the Tula workers’ regiment, A. Gorshkov, in his memoirs, “and on the morning of October 30, the regiment entered to battle".

Ageev had practically no time to get used to the new place and get to know the fighters. And few people managed to recognize him. Therefore, in the memories of the soldiers of the Tula Workers' Regiment about the new commissar there are only fragmentary phrases.

Grigory Antonovich “always modest and active, ... immediately took up the practical work of putting together all the fighter battalions into combat units, organized into a working regiment.” This is from the book by I. Isaev “From Tula to Koenigsberg”.

“On October 30, during the battle, with his personal example and courage, the commissar of the regiment, Comrade Ageev, inspired all the soldiers and commanders under heavy enemy fire, without sparing his life, he ran from one unit to another, giving precise instructions and himself became one of the first, leading the fighters in battle against fascist barbarians. So, saving the life of one Russian soldier from an enemy bullet at 17:00 on October 30, he was killed, and I was wounded in the arm.” These are the memoirs of Pavel Pavlovich Lisitsa, a soldier of the 1st company of the 3rd battalion.

“On October 30, 1941, at 8 a.m., German tanks stood up, unleashing a hurricane of machine-gun fire on us with tracer bullets. At that time, the regimental commissar, Comrade Ageev, appeared from underground and said: comrades, don’t be afraid, be bold, prepare grenades, let the tanks come closer.” Memoirs of regiment battalion commander E.I. Khokhlov.

On this last day, at about three o'clock in the afternoon, Ageev saw that the medical center, where there were several seriously wounded soldiers and two nurses, was under threat of capture by the Germans. With a group of soldiers under constant fire, Grigory Antonovich personally carried out and led the wounded from the battlefield - despite the order of the regiment commander to leave the wounded until dark. When he set off for the eighth time, the Germans had already taken aim, and Ageev was killed by a machine-gun burst. The body of Commissar Ageev was taken from the battlefield as soon as possible and was buried with military honors at the All Saints Cemetery.

A memorial sign has now been erected at the site of Ageev’s death in the park of the Arms Factory on Perekop.

True, his feat was appreciated by his homeland only decades later. Only in 1965, Commissar Ageev was posthumously awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union “for the exemplary performance of command assignments in the fight against the Nazi invaders and the courage and heroism shown.”

Soviet Union
Grigory Antonovich Ageev was born in 1902 in the city of Vilnius into a working-class family. At 12 years old
when the First World War began, he went to the front, leaving his parents a note “Don’t look for
me, I’ll show up myself.” At the Warsaw station I begged the commander of the Siberian regiment, and he
took him on a reconnaissance mission. He was lucky in intelligence, his knowledge of the Polish language helped. One night
he penetrated a German trench, pulled out a machine gun under bullets, then daringly took prisoner
German company commander and his orderly. For military merits at the age of 14 G. A. Ageev was
already a senior non-commissioned officer, a full Knight of St. George.
In 1917 he went over to the side of the Bolsheviks, fought as part of the first Moscow
people's squad. During the occupation of Ukraine by the Germans, he was a liaison with the partisans.
detachments, political instructor of mounted reconnaissance. At the age of 16 he joined the ranks of the RCP(b).
In peacetime he worked as chairman of the revolutionary committee, food commissar, commissioner for
restoration of Donbass mines.
In November 1939, G. A. Ageev was appointed head of the construction department of new
mines of the Urgal coal basin. He worked at Urgal until March 1941. For 1941 under
his leadership did a lot: temporary barracks were built where they were resettled
builders from tents, two construction departments were created, issues regarding
water supply, two locomobiles were installed at the power plant. From memory
contemporaries, Ageev G. A was a demanding man who knew how to defend his
opinion in the People's Commissariat, and in regional and regional organizations. He did not tolerate deception, failure
schedules for the delivery of equipment, delivery of food for workers.
In March 1941, he was recalled to Moscow and sent to the Tula region for construction
mines in Cherepovets. Here Grigory Antonovich met the war. He was eager to go to the front, but he
refused - the country needed coal more than ever.

But when the enemy approached Tula in mid-October 1941, G.A.
Ageev was appointed commissar of the Tula worker
regiment. Guderian's tanks rushed to the capital, flared up
fierce battles. The forces were unequal.
On October 29, tanks launched an offensive on the right flank.
It was there that Ageev headed. The fire was hurricane. Regiment
took the fight. After three attacks, the losses amounted to 300 people.
The commissioner led the battle. Despite orders before the offensive
the darkness of the wounded could not be endured from the battle, he rushed to save his
fighters. Ageev pulled out seven of them. Crawled after the eighth, and
The Nazis had already taken aim, and a machine-gun burst hit him.
The commissioner was not found immediately; he was lying on a small hillock,
with his arms outstretched and the rifle never released. Lying face down
as if he was hugging his native land.
But the sacrifices were not in vain: Tula did not give up. Guderian's tanks
never broke through to Moscow.
Only 24 years later, in 1965, Grigory Antonovich
Ageev was posthumously awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet
Union.
In 2004, a memorial stand to G.A. was opened in the village of Chegdomyn.

During the war, he was engaged in transporting goods on reindeer and hunting.
In October 1940, while hunting, I discovered mica sparkles in the den of a killed bear.
It was he who became the first discoverer of phlogopite from the Emeldzhak deposit,
which in terms of its reserves is not only the largest in the Soviet Union, but also in
world.
In June 1943 he was drafted into the army.
For his bravery in crossing the Svir River he was awarded the Order of the Red
Stars. For participation in breaking through the long-term defense of the Germans - the Order of the Patriotic War

"An excellent scout."
In October 1944 he was nominated for the title of Hero of the Soviet Union, but did not receive the award.
After the defeat of Nazi Germany, V. N. Zakharov takes part in battles against the Japanese
militarists on the Transbaikal front. For his courage in delivering a report to
the battalion was awarded the medal "For Courage".
After the war, he worked at the Timpton and Emeldzhak mines of the Aldanslyuda Mining and Processing Plant.
In 1967, as a sign of respect and gratitude for his major contribution to the development of the region, V.N.
Zakharov was awarded the title of Honorary Citizen of the Aldan region.
Zakharov Viktor Nikolaevich died on August 16, 1981 at the age of 81 in the city
Tommote.
The title of Hero of the Soviet Union was awarded posthumously to V.N. Zakharov in 1995.

February 24, commander of the 20th motorized assault engineer

The Nazis were killed, two were captured and taken to headquarters by morning.
Then Zakharov successfully went behind enemy lines several more times, for which he was
awarded the “Excellent Scout” badge.
In mid-March, the enemy had a dangerous sniper: he only shot at
commanders Over the past three days, four officers in the brigade have been killed.
The formation commander turned to the best shooters: “Destroy the enemy

Zakharov was also among the small shooters.
...The fog cleared and the sun rose. It was lightly frosty. Ahead was blue under the ice

Listening to his steps, Viktor Nikolaevich carefully looks where, according to his calculations,
there may be a spy lurking. And suddenly, behind a scree, under the shadow of a rocky ledge, he
noticed the top of the helmet. Under the helmet there is a face and shoulders. Fritz puts down a rifle with an optical
sight. “He really only takes aim at commanders, but with people like me,
flirts. It won’t work,” Zakharov whispers angrily to himself, “even though my carbine has no optics, but I

Builders of New Urgal

Upon arrival, the construction workers lived in the same carriages, in
whom we arrived (it was very cold). In February 1975
years, the first two wooden dormitories were occupied. After
carriages, the rooms seemed very spacious and
light. Now it was necessary to build temporary housing for
new units. During 1975 at the 3rd crossing
four more detachments arrived: “Kyiv”, “Karpaty”,
"Kharkov", "Dnepr". Within a year the builders erected
temporary settlement: 15 dormitories, secondary school,
hospital, kindergarten, post office and communications center, shop

Hero of the Soviet Union

Decree dates

A gay Grigory Antonovich - one of the founders of the Tula people's militia, commissar of the Tula workers' regiment.
Born on March 17, 1902 in the city of Vilna, now Vilnius - the capital of Lithuania, in a working-class family. Russian. Member of the CPSU(b) since 1918. In 1912 he graduated from the city school. He worked as a laborer at local businesses.
In 1915-1916 he served in the tsarist army. Participant in the First World War, during which he became a full Knight of St. George. After demobilization, he worked in a mine.
In the Red Army since 1918. Participant in the Civil War. He took part in battles in Ukraine, where he was a liaison officer for partisan detachments, a political instructor for mounted reconnaissance, and a military commissar. In battles he was wounded three times.
After demobilization he was at party work. He participated in the restoration of Donbass mines, the construction of the Dnieper Hydroelectric Power Station, collectivization, and the construction of mines in the Far East and Moscow region. Over the years, he was secretary of the Skopinsky district party committee in Mosbass, deputy secretary of the Moscow Region Bureau of the MK party, and head of Glavugol of the People's Commissariat of the Fuel Industry of the USSR. For the construction of mines G.A. Ageev was awarded the Order of the Red Banner of Labor. In the 1930s, he miraculously escaped repression. Since 1938 he was at economic work. He headed the department for the construction of new mines in the Cherepetsky (now Suvorovsky) district of the Tula region, where the construction of a state district power station was planned. In this work he proved himself to be an experienced leader and expert in industrial production in the coal industry.
In the first days of the Great Patriotic War G.A. Ageev began to create a people's militia from the miners, the goals of which included fighting enemy saboteurs, rocket launchers, defusing enemy aircraft bombs, and destroying fascist leaflets. Destruction battalions also appeared at other enterprises in the region. As the front approaches the borders of the Tula region, G.A. Ageev proposed uniting the people's militia battalions and creating a consolidated detachment from them with a single headquarters. The district party committee entrusted the leadership of the combined detachment of destruction battalions of Cherepetsky miners and mine builders to Grigory Antonovich Ageev. He hastily began organizing the combat and political training of fighters, resolved issues of replenishing weapons, and sought strict adherence to discipline from fighters and commanders. The battalion of the 156th NKVD regiment, whose commander was Captain V.F., operated in this area. Poniznik, united fighter battalions under the command of Border Troops Captain A.P. Gorshkova and S.A. Vasilyeva.
On October 20, 1941, between the village of Rozhdestveno and the Cherepet station (now Suvorovsky district), fighter battalions took the battle, giving the retreating soldiers of the 50th Army of the Soviet troops the opportunity to break away from superior enemy forces and concentrate on new frontiers.
On October 23, the defense committee of the city of Tula approved a resolution on the unification of fighter battalions, militia detachments and the creation on their basis in Tula on October 26 of the Tula workers' regiment, which was to immediately switch to a barracks position and be located on the premises of the Mechanical Institute. The regiment was created as part of five battalions. A.P. was appointed commander. Gorshkova. By the specified date, 600 fighters from destruction battalions had joined the emerging workers’ regiment; the rest of the staff was replenished with workers and employees “through party mobilization” from among representatives of local enterprises and institutions. Instead of the originally appointed P.A. Baranov, the day before the fierce battles on the outskirts of Tula, on October 28, Grigory Antonovich Ageev was confirmed as commissar of the regiment.
On October 30, German tanks began attacking the defensive line of the workers' regiment in Osoaviakhim Park on the southern outskirts of the Rogozhinsky village. Commissar Ageev was on the front line, talked with commanders and soldiers, supported newcomers who had not yet been fired upon, in difficult moments of battle he took a rifle, went on a counterattack, inspiring the soldiers with his personal example, repelling the enemy’s onslaught. The Nazis tried to break into the city through the village of Krasny Perekop. At about 3 o'clock in the afternoon, when the enemy once again intensified the onslaught, Ageev noticed that the medical center in which the wounded were located was under threat. The commissar with a group of soldiers, under constant fire, personally carried out and led the wounded from the battlefield, despite the order of the regiment commander Gorshkov to leave the wounded on the battlefield until dark. Commissioner G.A. went seven times. Ageev crawled into the heat, saving the lives of his comrades, after the eighth.
The enemies, having taken aim, struck the brave commissar to death with a machine-gun burst. The body of Commissar Ageev was taken out of the battlefield as soon as possible... The fearless commissar was buried with military honors in the city of Tula at the All Saints Cemetery.
U of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR on May 8, 1965, on the eve of the 20th anniversary of the Victory of the Soviet people over Nazi Germany, for the exemplary performance of command assignments in the fight against the Nazi invaders and the courage and heroism shown, Grigory Antonovich Ageev was posthumously awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union .
Awarded the Order of Lenin and the Order of the Red Banner of Labor.
An obelisk was erected at the site of the death of the fearless commissar, and a memorial plaque was erected on the house where the Tula Workers' Regiment was formed. In the name of Hero of the Soviet Union A.G. Ageev named street and school No. 58 in the hero city of Tula, a street in the city of Suvorov. In school No. 58 of the hero city of Tula there is a museum dedicated to the commissar of the Tula workers' regiment.

South of Warsaw - the Pilica River, Ostroleka district. The height that the Germans turned into a fortified impregnable bridgehead is on the other side. We need to capture the heights to enable our infantry to expand the breakthrough...

This is where the commander of a separate assault engineering battalion, Captain Vladimir Kirillovich Abramov, showed himself.

...The ice of the Pilica River is shredded by shells. Polynyas gape here and there. The enemy shore is in continuous motion - machine guns and artillery do not stop. The enemy is nervous - waiting for an assault.

January 15, 1945. Morning. Fog pierced by tracer bullets and missiles. Captain Abramov leads his battalion to the shore.

Get ready to cross! Forward! - you can hear his voice. Abramov is the first to jump onto the unstable ice.

In the ice hole, attack sappers push boats together. The crossing of Pilica begins. Under hurricane fire, Vladimir Abramov leads his soldiers to the fortified enemy shore.

The shells penetrate thin ice. Here and there water columns rise, spraying people with spray. Soldiers fall and fall through the ice.

Go ahead, guys! Forward!.. - And captain Abramov already feels the shore under his feet...

...The glorious military path led Vladimir Abramov to the Polish Pilica River. He has an ordinary but characteristic biography of a Russian soldier.

Born in the city of Venev in 1920. He graduated from high school in his hometown and joined the Komsomol. Then the Moscow Military Engineering School. He graduated early with the rank of lieutenant - the war with the White Finns, the Karelian Isthmus, the first baptism of fire began.

Then - the Caucasus, strengthening the border with Turkey on the Chorokh River. And - the Great Patriotic War broke out...

The army engineering battalion, in which Lieutenant Abramov serves, organizes defense on the Black Sea coast from Sukhumi to Batumi. The Nazis are rushing to the North Caucasus. And these days Abramov joins the Communist Party. Defense of the Mamison Pass on the Ossetian Military Road. The Germans occupy the city of Alagir. Fierce defensive battles. Beginning of 1943. Assault on Alagir. Here Vladimir Abramov shows himself to be fearless and resourceful. The first award is the Order of the Red Star.

December 1943. Leningrad Front. Awarded the rank of captain; The deputy commander of a separate assault battalion was awarded the Order of the Patriotic War, II degree, for breaking through enemy defenses in the Pulkovo Heights area.

The blockade of Leningrad has been broken. Fighting on the Karelian Isthmus. Familiar places!.. Skillful breakthrough of the enemy’s defense - the second Order of the Red Star. Building a bridge under hurricane artillery fire in the area of the Taitsi station is the third Order of the Red Star.

Fights for the liberation of Estonia.

...And now Poland, the battle for Warsaw.

Bullets pierce with a hiss into the snow, into the torn up lumpy earth. Don't raise your head. There are wire fences ahead.

With grenades! - Captain Abramov shouts. And the first one throws a grenade.

Explosions! Explosions... Smoke obscures the eyes.

Attack! Forward!

And he runs at the head of his battalion, waving a pistol. Soldiers are falling all around. His soldiers...

Then they will compose a sad, quiet song about them:

In the fields, beyond the sleepy Vistula

They lie in the damp ground

Earring with Malaya Bronnaya

And Vitka and Mokhovaya...

Abramov jumps into an enemy trench. His attack sappers are jumping. Short hand-to-hand combat. The trench has been taken. New units rush into the breakthrough.

Ageev Grigory Antonovich

Born in 1902 in the city of Vilnius. In 1912 he graduated from the city school. He worked at local enterprises as a laborer. In 1915–1916 served in the old army, then worked in a mine. From 1918 to 1920 - in the Red Army. Participant in the Civil War. Conducted party work in the troops. He was wounded three times. After the Civil War, he spent 16 years in party work, and from 1938 in economic work. Participated in the defense of Tula from the German fascists. Died on October 30, 1941. The title of Hero of the Soviet Union was awarded on May 8, 1965. He was a member of the CPSU since 1918.

The beginning of the Great Patriotic War found Grigory Antonovich in the Cherepetsky (now Suvorovsky) district. He headed the department for the construction of new mines. The old communist, an experienced leader, did a lot to ensure that the front of the coal industry expanded, so that Soviet power plants received more coal from the Moscow region. He also took care of the life of the mine builders, so that everyone had a comfortable apartment, so that the miners’ families lived culturally and in prosperity. Much has been done, even more planned...

And then there is war. The enemy is rushing to the east. Grigory Antonovich quickly realized that victory would not be easy, that the enemy was strong and cunning. In the very first days of the war, Ageev began to create a people’s militia from the miners. Armed miners caught enemy infiltrators - spies, saboteurs, rocket launchers, neutralized air bombs dropped by Nazi vultures, and destroyed enemy leaflets.

Destruction battalions also appeared at other enterprises in the region. They acted, however, separately. This was normal as long as the front was far away. As the front approached, Ageev came up with the idea of uniting the people's militia battalions and creating a consolidated detachment with a single headquarters. The district party committee entrusted the leadership of the combined detachment to Grigory Antonovich. Ageev devotes himself entirely to this matter. He organizes political and combat training of personnel, replenishes their weapons, achieves high combat effectiveness of each unit, clear discipline of fighters and commanders.

As soon as the Nazis invaded the Cherepetsky district, Ageev’s detachment stood in their way. In the very first battle, the soldiers of the detachment showed great courage. They steadfastly fought for every inch of their native land. In the battle, up to 700 German soldiers and officers, ten tanks, and many vehicles were destroyed.

The detachment commander showed exceptional courage in battle and the ability to lead people in difficult conditions.

At the end of October, when an immediate threat to Tula arose, the Cherepetsky detachment was recalled to the regional center and included in the Tula workers' regiment. On October 28, the Tula City Defense Committee appointed G.A. Ageev as commissar of the regiment.

Regiment commander A.P. Gorshkov and Commissar G.A. Ageev in a short period of time did a lot of work to unite party and Komsomol organizations and established combat and political training for personnel.

In just a few days, the Tula workers' regiment was put on full combat readiness. On October 29, his units took on the first enemy attack at the walls of Tula. The regiment's soldiers, interacting with the 156th NKVD Regiment and the 732nd Anti-Aircraft Artillery Regiment, successfully repelled the enemy's onslaught. More than 1,500 enemy soldiers and officers, many tanks and vehicles remained on the battlefield.

The regimental commissar in this battle, as in previous ones, was in the most difficult areas, encouraging and inspiring the soldiers and commanders.

At night there was a short meeting at headquarters. The results of the first battle for Tula were summed up, shortcomings were taken into account, and the best units and warriors were noted. The commissar sends political workers to the units and goes there himself. It is necessary to tell the personnel about the exploits of the heroes of the regiment. How many times did he go to difficult mine construction sites like this! On the spot, he helped people eliminate accidents and eliminate bottlenecks. And the construction manager always told the workers and specialists about those who work better, more quickly, and who show reasonable initiative. The example of the leaders ignited those lagging behind and led them forward.

That's how it is now. Only then there were no shells, no mines, no bullets... And now there is war.

The next morning the enemy launched a massive attack on Tula. More than a hundred tanks, planes, artillery, and mortars took part in this battle from the enemy side. The German general Guderian hoped to break into Tula on that day and capture a city that had never been touched by an enemy in history.

The battle lasted the whole day. Having been repulsed in one area, the Nazis attacked in another and a third. But the Nazis failed to carry out their plan. Tula residents repelled the onslaught of Hitler's horde. More than 26 German tanks, hundreds of soldiers and officers, were destroyed near the walls of the city of gunsmiths, metallurgists, and coal miners. Guderian's 3rd and 4th Panzer Divisions had to lick the wounds received in this battle for several days. And essentially only one name remained from the SS motorized infantry regiment “Grossdeutschland”.

The victory for the defenders of Tula that day was not easy. Many of them died brave deaths. In one of the counterattacks that day, the commissar of the Tula workers' regiment, Grigory Antonovich Ageev, also died.
