Chronicle of the War

April 1, 1915 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents several chronicles of the war. In numbers of prisoners taken, it Russian accounts are to be credited, the capture of Peremysl was an even more important achievement than was at first supposed. Those who surrendered are estimated by the Russian reports at some 120,000 men and one gathers that not all of the guns and supplies of ammunition in the fortress were destroyed before its surrender. If the Russian figures of prisoners taken are correct, the besieging force must have been greater than had been supposed-certainly not less than 150,000 men and more probably nearer 200,000.
