Not surprisingly, in 1914, as a result of the mobilisation,considerable forces set out from it. Landwehr units were brought instead, which were to be the military forces' war garrison. However, they also soon went to the front. In the spring of 1915, two infantry divisions were formedin Toruń, and the fortress infrastructure was also used to train air observers and artillerymen. After Germany had been defeated in World War I, only some of the troops returned to their parent garrison, but it was enough to prevent any armed attempt to capture the city by Poles

During the Great War, the German and Austro-Hungarian Armies defeated the Russian forces and the Tsar’s empire collapsed. The Bolsheviks’ regime was not eager to sign a peace treaty on the Middle Power’s conditions. This denial started an offensive, which led Germans and Austro-Hungarians deep into the Russian territory. Their forces, however, were of poor quality, and they were only intended to provide cover for the transport of supplies into their countries as all battleworthy units and soldiers had already been on the Western Front.
The Revolution in Germany and the Armistice on the Western Front caused great chaos among the soldiers of the Ober-Ost. Their primary concern was to go home as soon as possible. The German Army on the Eastern Front was in disarray, which gave rise to the formation of soldiers’ councils, intensifying the chaos even more. Things started to improve as late as in January 1919.

The authors analyse the strength Russian positions, the use of air reconnaissance by the Central Powers as well as the deployment of heavy artillery and reserves. The morale factor, and, perhaps most importantly, the faulty Russian chain of command are discussed and as the reasons for the Austro-German victory.
Streszczenie: Tekst analizuje przełamanie frontu przez wojska austro-niemieckie pod Gorlicami w 1915 roku, które doprowadziło do strategicznej porażki sił rosyjskich. Autorzy analizują siłę pozycji rosyjskich, użycie przez Państwa Centralne rozpoznania lot-niczego, ciężkiej artylerii oraz rezerw. Omówiono również aspekt morale oraz, co najważ-niejsze, wadliwy łańcuch dowodzenia wojsk carskich.
