On October 19, German artillery began shelling the hills around the village in order to disorganise the defences, but despite this they failed to capture the town again on October 20. Div. Gen. Sergěj Ingr, commanding officer of III. sbor “Hálek”, seeing that Třebíč was now threatened by a German attack, ordered Skupina 2 to fall back to Třebíč and set up defensive position in the town and along the villages Stařeč-Čechočovice-Markvarice-Chlístov. He also ordered the 14. divize “Fibich”, under the command of Brig. Gen. Josef Zmek, to move out from its base in Třešť and reinforce their positions in Jihlava and its surroundings.
