Introduction

Having failed to eject the Finns from their positions astride the road to the key town of Lyck, Lt. Gen Kurt von Morgen requested assistance from the 1St Landwehr Division. Morgen did not inform his superiors of the failure, hoping to break through with the aid of the Landwehr and his attached brigade of cavalry. But both the cavalry and Landwehr commanders duly reported the true situation, leaving Morgen in a tight professional bind. If he could score a rapid success, his dissembling would be forgotten. If not, he could look forward to spending the war counting blankets in some Pomeranian depot.

Conclusion

Morgen brought up all of his division's artillery and summoned his own reserves as well as the Landwehr division. Once again the Finns put up fierce resistance, finally giving way by mid-morning. The cavalry followed them to the southwest across the Russian border as they rejoined the Russian Tenth Army, while the two infantry divisions marched northwards toward the flank of First Army.
