Chapter 302: The True Meaning of Christmas



Despite the use of tanks on the Western Front in a bold push on Christmas day at the Belgian border. The attack was ultimately repulsed. With several dozen Allied tanks destroyed, and a few hundred men slain, one could easily tell that this was nothing more than an attempt to gauge the fortifications at the border and their ability to defeat armored vehicles.

Even so, it wasn't treated as anything much by the German high command. Who were more focused on moving troops, supplies, and most importantly their own armor from the Balkans to the Alps. Rearmament, resupply, and reinforcing losses sustained during the theater of operations were paramount.

Russian, Austro-Hungarian, and Greek soldiers would all be marching west, with the easternmost front closed. Bringing millions men into play. Most would be sent to reinforce the Western Front, their objective the same as it had been for the last year.
