By doing this, Barth was able to assemble an army of 1,200 rebels inside East Germany. The rebel army was waiting for Barth when he marched into Fussen to setup his command post. Barth commanded Operation Befreiung from his command center in Fussen. Where he also authorized the killing of 3,000 Russian troops. Barth was such a good commander, that, during the last phase of Operation Befreiung, the leader of East Germany even turned over command of his army to Barth.
