Of particular significance was determined Smolensk Brahma ON hydrological network that forms a well-developed system of waterways trans asia line that make up the system at the same time the territorial trans asia line barriers. Southbound middle reaches trans asia line of the Dnieper, trans asia line its main tributaries (the Berezina, Friend, Sozha) trans asia line and the mean value of the Dvina raised them as barriers that impede trans asia line communication and the movement of troops in the east - west.
