"Woz-Tek ......" (German: hidden)

Huck, a Czech soldier from Bohemia, looked at his commander with some blankness, but the shrill whistling of shells that followed made him instinctively shrink down and burrow into the anti-gun pits in the trenches.

Rumble! Boom! Rumble......

Huge explosions rang out one after another on the position, and the entire ground shook violently as if it had been hit hard, as if it would collapse at any moment. The frightened Czech recruit clasped his hands tightly over his ears, his eyes full of panic, his body curled up at the bottom of the cold, damp trench, his trembling lips whispering prayer.

It seemed that after a long time, the sound of the artillery began to fade away, and the battlefield seemed to become silent.

The officers whistled to kick the soldiers out of the guns, and Huck reluctantly stood up, grabbed his mud-stained rifle from the ground with a blank face, and crawled to the firing position at the edge of the trench amid the officers' roars, and although he didn't understand it, he understood what the officers meant.

"Ula ......," the Russians shouted, and began to charge in a somewhat dense formation of skirmishers.

Doodoo Doodoo......

The Maxim heavy machine gun made a muffled sound first.

Click...... Syllable! Syllable!

After that, light machine guns and rifles also began to fire, and the forward positions of the Bohemian infantry division were suddenly covered in smoke again. Huck mechanically pulls the bolt at the target, not checking to see if it has been hit, but blindly repeats the bolt, aim, and shoot.

The rate of fire of the Israia rifle was very high, and it only took him a little more than a minute to wipe out the 11 rounds in the gun, and as for where it hit, it was not a matter of concern to him.

He stepped back from his position, gripped the two five-round magazines into the fixed magazine of the rifle, and then took another round from the magazine, and took a few breaths before pulling the bolt and loading it into the chamber. Every moment in the trenches, someone was shot and fell, some died instantly, others were wailing and screaming, and most of them were numb enough to deal with it themselves.

The medics are simply too busy, and no one will help you unless you can't move.

Huck hurried up to his position again under the stern gaze of his superiors, and sometimes it was better to be scolded by the officers and to be beaten by a bullet in his heavy leather boots. He didn't know why the war was fought, and what did the war between the Russians and the Austrians have to do with the Czechs? He couldn't figure it out that three months before he was just a real peasant, but he had to participate in two weeks of military training every year.

He was quite active in military training, because the food of the reservists during training was not bad.

But when he really went to the battlefield to fight, he was extremely reluctant.

The weather is really cold, there was a freezing rain yesterday, and the cotton clothes on my body are still wet, and my whole body has become numb.

Are the Russians sick? The mountains on both sides were extremely open, and they had to get through the valley that had been heavily guarded by the Austro-Hungarian army.

Huck knew that the valley was mountainous on both sides, and although the trail was rough and difficult, it was definitely possible to climb it. They had crossed the mountains on the northeastern side to reach the river valley. What's the use of passing through our position? There is also a trench a kilometer behind.

Knowing that the trenches behind him were the Tyrolean Mountain Division and the Croatian Infantry Division, he had heard from a Czech veteran. He couldn't understand what the men were saying. "That's Italian and Croatian." The old soldier said so with pride on his face, as if he knew everything. But Huck bet he didn't understand what the Italians and Croats were saying.

He wanted to shout to the Russians who were charging at his position in the midst of a hail of bullets: Run up the hill, there is no one to defend there. But he soon found out that he was wrong, and the Russians did what he wanted, but were soon driven back to the valley. The Russians are surrounded, and now they can't run......

And if we are surrounded by the Russians? Huck's first instinct was to drop his rifle and surrender, he was a little ashamed that he had such an idea, fortunately it was the Russians who were now in the encirclement.

The Russian soldiers wore thick fur coats and fur hats of a strange style, unlike the Russian soldiers he had seen before.

"That's the troops from Siberia, the tsar's elite." The old soldier had said so.

But Huck didn't see any difference in the Siberian soldiers, but they were not afraid of death, and they charged again and again at the positions defended by the Bohemian infantry division. The brutal battle did not leave much time for Huq to think, and the lines of the Galician infantry divisions in front of them were broken and retreated to the rear. The Bohemian infantry divisions were now bearing the brunt of the attack, their line on the west side of the San River, right in the middle of the main route of the Russian retreat, having withstood for two days the enemy's seemingly insane charge and artillery fire.

The Bohemian Infantry Division suffered heavy casualties, and the dead and wounded soldiers and officers were carried down in batches, and the shadow of death hung over the hearts of everyone alive and lingered.

The shape of the battlefield deteriorated sharply, but it had not yet collapsed, and the Croats and Italians in the rear came up to reinforce it, and the Bohemian infantry division, which had suffered heavy losses, withdrew to a trench behind.

Huck breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, he was still alive.

The Russian 7th Army from Siberia was really tenacious, and under the siege of three Austro-Hungarian armies and one German army, it resisted desperately for five days until it ran out of ammunition and food, and then reluctantly chose to surrender. By this time, more than half of them had already suffered casualties, the Austro-Hungarian army had captured 110,000 Russian troops and 40,000 wounded, and 70,000 had been killed.

The Russian army broke the siege of Limburg by the Austro-Hungarian army, and the Russian 4th, 5th, and 9th armies broke through the defense line built by the Austro-Hungarian 1st and 2nd armies after losing 30,000 men after bloody battles. The Austro-Hungarian 4th Army, besieging Limburg, withdrew from the perimeter of Limburg and, together with the 1st and 2nd Armies, retreated to Přemyrč Castle.

The Austro-Hungarian and German armies suffered nearly 40,000 casualties throughout the campaign, while the Russians suffered huge losses, with 120,000 casualties and 170,000 prisoners.

After this battle, the Russians were temporarily unable to attack, so they had to shrink their defensive lines and retreat to the north side of the Vistula and Dniester rivers, and the two sides returned to the www.biquge.info of the Biquge before the war.

Lehedon was finally able to return to Vienna with honor, and his reputation was swelled by his incomparable exploits and newspaper praise, and he was described as an Ares with a trident, and his popularity among the people even surpassed that of the old Emperor Franz.

After Moltke the Younger was dismissed, Falkenhain became Chief of the General Staff of the German Army. The German chief of the General Staff insisted on launching an offensive on the Western Front, which made Lechelton deeply helpless.

But before the main German forces were transferred to the Eastern Front, he was not prepared to launch another major operation, and it was useless to be urged by Kondra or the German General Staff. The Austro-Hungarian army, which numbered 1.5 million and needed to be rested, trained, and reorganized, was not prepared to send poorly trained reinforcements to the front line to die until it was completed.

Winter is coming, and the whole battlefield seems to be silent.
