Yet soon the situation changed in view of massive enemy air raids and rapid advance of its armoured and mechanized troops. On 11 September 1939 his corps were transformed into the Operation Group Polesie, but were lacking in heavy equipment, and by 14 September were already in combat with the most advanced German troops. General Kleeberg managed to organize a defence by withdrawing dispersed units from under the strike of the German forces, but found many of his units also attacked by the Red army. He also managed to gather remnants of the Polish forces destroyed in the east to Vistula and south-east to Narew into a new grouping, with which he tried to break through towards besieged Warsaw. After hearing of Warsaw's capitulation, he dug his troops in, resulting in the <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Kock_(1939)" title="Battle of Kock (1939)">battle of Kock</a>. On 5 October 1939 General Kleeberg decided to surrender, as his forces were out of ammunition and food. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Death">Death</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Franciszek_Kleeberg&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Death"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>General Kleeberg was imprisoned in <a href="/wiki/Oflag_IV-B_Koenigstein" class="mw-redirect" title="Oflag IV-B Koenigstein">Oflag IV-B Koenigstein</a>, where he lost his sight and became unable to walk.
