In August of 1914, despite the misgivings of General von Moltke and the OHL, Germany began an all-out offensive against Russia, employing six sevenths of her Army, while standing on the defensive in Alsace-Lorraine with the remainder.
According to plan, von Moltke’s divisions pushed south from Prussia towards Warsaw, but the Russians had foreseen their intentions and deployed for an in-depth defence north of Warsaw, so the advance was slow and costly.
Von Moltke was not happy, but agreed to call off the offensive in Poland for the time being and send the freed forces to stem the Russian advance.
