The Lines That I Don't Keep Sealed Are Frugal

The Russians had just picked up on German troop movements away from the first army, moving towards the second. They believed they must be retreating back across the vistola river and abandoning Eastern Prussia. Instead of waiting within their positions for the Russians to come to them, the German forces launched themselves out of their trenches waving flags,. bands were playing and soldiers were singing. This terrified the Russians who turned around and ran because they had no idea there was even Germans there in the first place. And despite being massively at number again, this is a single German reserve corps that blunted an entire army to advance.
