BY GEN. ERICH " ON LUDENDoRFF

The offensive undertaken by Cen
pera1. Won Conrad in Juanary (the Aus
TRAN attempt to relieve PrzemysD had
been unsuccessful At the start ground
was gained along the whole of the Car
pathian ridge, but after that matters
came to standstill. The Russians
made their counter attack and pressed
the Austrian army hard. Only the
plucky German southern arm, under
General Won Linsingen continued to
make progress. Without these German
troops the position could not have been
maintained. The difficulties of this
theatre of war in the winter we're enor-
nous. They subjected the troops, who
worked wonders. to a terrible strain.
The losses due to frost-bite were very
great.
Przemysl was not relieved and fell on
March 10.
Whilst the attacks against German
territory east of the Vistula >abated
early in April the grand duke con-
tinued his offensive against the Aus
TRAN army with the express purpose of
descending on Hungary from the Car
pathians and putting Austria Hungary
out of the war.
In April the headquarters staff mt
TescI,cen considered the military situa-
tiou 0f the dual monarchy to be ex-
tremely grave. Italy's attitude had be-
come increasingly doubtful. She had
refused all Austria Hungary's extern
siye concessions the necessity LOT

rived just in time to avert the worst
disaster.
We reported the measures we had
taken to general headquarters, who
fully concurred in our view of the sit
uation. They raised the Beskiden corps
under General Won Der Marfitz. The
commanderin- chief in the east also
gave up the Fourth division and a
newly formed division to reinforce the
Carpathian front. But, in spite of all
this, the situation there continued to
be grave. We had to send reinforce
ments to the Serbian front at the same
time. These reinforcements afterward
Joined General Won Linsingen during
his attack in May.
The German general staff now re-
solved to try and obtain n decision
against Russia. The plan was an am
bilious one, and the very idea of weak
ching forces in the west In spite
of the critical situation there was
proof of their readiness to accept re-
spOnSibiIity.

preached ii from the south along the
coast and torpedo boats attacked from
the sea.
The fortress was not seriously de-
Tended. The Qualifications were blown
up by the garrison, and the coast guns
turned out to be dummies. The weak
garrison of 1900 men surrendered when
our troops forced their way in from
the south and east.
The taking of Isibau was not a mar
tial achievement worthy of a perma-
nent place in history, but it was a
happy little enterprise which all who
took part in it recall with pleasure.
Its most valuable feature was that it
was carried out without any loss. 1t
was always my endeavor to achieve
success at the least possible cost.
Troops may take pride in bearin
heavy losses and succeeding in spite
OF them. The commander must have n
different point of view.
