At this time, the war broke out in the Marne River, and the German and French armies formed the top trend. The French needed to defeat the enemy before German reinforcements arrived, and the Germans needed to withstand the French attack and wait for reinforcements to arrive.

Therefore, the battle in the Marne became more and more fierce and bloody.

"Boom, boom, boom"

On both sides of the Marne, intensive artillery fire filled the ground with craters. At this time, the two officers and soldiers were avoiding the artillery fire in the trenches. At this moment, they were constantly praying for themselves, praying that the shells would not fall on their side.

However, apart from bringing comfort to the heart, such prayers cannot bring practical effects. The cannonballs fall where they should.

Of course, the shelling was short-lived, and it was more of a fight between soldiers on both sides.

The French soldiers often stepped on the point just after the shelling ended and attacked the German troops in the position. The defending Germans also rushed back to their positions as soon as the shelling ended to meet the French attack.

On both sides of the Marne, the **** fights of soldiers from both sides continued to be staged, and a soldier's life was measured in hours. Why do you say this, because the ensuing battle was even bloodier. After the battle on the second day, the total number of casualties counted by the two sides was as high as 120,000.

Such large casualties were, of course, brought about by high-intensity battles. During this day, the French army launched more than ten consecutive attacks. Often the French army who launched the offensive last time was repelled, and the next wave of French soldiers was already on the way to charge.

Although this kind of continuous attack will cause a large number of casualties, it will also put a lot of pressure on the defending German troops. Because of the high-intensity continuous fighting, the already exhausted German officers and soldiers are even more uncomfortable.

After repelling a French attack, many German soldiers immediately fell tired and fell asleep in the trenches, and no one could wake up.

In the face of this situation, the officer on the one hand skillfully kicked their buttocks to make them hurry up. If it can't be kicked, it can only be dragged back into the anti-gun hole, after all, the trenches are too dangerous.

The French army's continuous high-intensity offensive, although it caused a lot of casualties at the beginning, was much better in terms of effect.

Because the German officers and soldiers were forced to carry out high-intensity operations on the position, which consumed their little energy. This also caused the firepower on its position to become weaker and weaker, and of course the accuracy of the head became worse and worse.

Such a situation allowed the French army to capture many first-line positions in a row in the afternoon of the second day. In the face of the uninterrupted French offensive, Kruger and Bilo also sent troops to replace the officers and soldiers of the front-line positions that were about to collapse.

This method is simple and effective, but it has little effect on the German First and Second Army. Because the officers and soldiers of the two groups were already exhausted, although the second-line troops had to get a little more rest time, they still did not recover. Instead, it was more exhausting from the previous rest.

As long as people who have continuous high-intensity work experience know that the state of exhaustion can not be recovered after a good sleep, but after a sleep, the whole person will fall into a state of fatigue, which requires two or three Rest will allow the body to truly regain its energized state. That kind of recovery that can be recovered after a sleep is definitely different from ordinary people.

Therefore, the transfer of the second-line troops did not affect the French offensive. Their continued offensive gave the Germans no respite at all. The two German commanders also received news that the front-line positions were lost one after another.

If it weren't for the sun setting and the night shrouded in the earth, then today the French army is very likely to complete the breakthrough of the German defense line.

In fact, the main problem that plagued the German army was that the soldiers were too tired and did not get enough rest. As long as they are given three days of rest, then not to mention defeating the French army on the opposite side, at least they can block the French army's attack with ease.

But it is clear that the French will not give this opportunity. In fact, the French army is also relatively tired. The Fifth Army and the British Expeditionary Force were driven around like dogs before. It is impossible to say that you are not tired.

But thanks to their strong force, the Seventh Army took the lead, allowing the Fifth Army and the British Expeditionary Force to have more time to rest and reorganize.

It doesn't have to be back to the best, just better than the Germans.

Obviously, the results of the battle the next day showed that the British and French forces were on the right track.

On the third day that followed, the Anglo-French coalition continued to launch a tidal wave of offensives against the Germans. At this time, the Germans were even more difficult to defend. Most of the first-line positions were lost, and the second-line positions became precarious. As for the defensive weapon Mark Qin, the two armies only had less than 200 in their hands.

You must know that at the beginning, the two armies were equipped with more than 800 Mark Qins, but now the two armies are not even enough for a quarter. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

The main reason for this is the consumption on the battlefield. For the Maxim machine guns on the battlefield, the attacking British and French troops regarded them as thorns in their eyes, and always tried to find a way to eliminate them as soon as they were discovered.

Moreover, in this battle, the French artillery was rarely at a disadvantage, and the number of artillery was higher than that of the German army, which also resulted in more artillery that could support the front-line troops. The German heavy machine guns did not have much room for survival in front of these directly supported artillery pieces.

There is another one. At this time, the German army's use of machine guns is not very handy, although the use of machine guns is obtained from ally Italy. However, I need to try it on the battlefield to know my own experience, so the Germans are not proficient in the tactical use of machine guns, which also makes the machine guns they set up more likely to be hit by artillery.

After the loss of most of the machine guns, the situation for the German army was even more difficult. During the third day of fighting, there were rare deserters from the German lines. Although it was only an escape of more than a dozen people, it was a sign that the defending German army was approaching the limit of pressure.

Of course, while causing huge pressure and casualties to the German army, the casualties of the British and French coalition forces will not be small. However, by virtue of their advantages in internal operations, they can better obtain supplies and supplements in troops.

Not to mention, taking a taxi from Paris to the front of the Marne is definitely a great initiative.

The Anglo-French coalition forces were well-replenished, and the defending German forces were also in urgent need of supplementation.

For this reason, Kruger and Bilo, both of them, informed the little Mochi in the back of the predicament they were facing in the form of a telegram.

After getting the specific situation, Xiao Maoqi, on the one hand, dispatched more troops to reinforce them, and on the other hand, ordered the traffic department to ensure that the first batch of reinforcements arrived at the Marne River on time.

So where did the reinforcements drawn from Germany go at this time?
