Summary
[edit]| Description |
English: "Balked!"
During the first month of the war it seemed as if the Germans would break the Allies’ line and capture Paris. Though the brave resistance of the Belgian forces temporarily retarded the Teutonic hordes, the advance continued systematically. Under the direction of General Joffre the French executed a skillful retreat and on September 6, 1914, counterattacked and drove the Germans over the Marne back into Northern France. At that point both sides entrenched and there was little open warfare again until the closing months of the war. |
