| Introduction |
|---|
|
After the 38th Honvéd Infantry Division failed to push back the Russians occupying the woods south of Tarnoczyn, Archduke Joseph Ferdinand of XIV Corps committed the four battalions of his 8th Infantry Division’s 121st Infantry Brigade. Maj. Gen. Alfred Brunswik von Korompa had half the infantrymen of most brigades, but most of them came from the 1st Kaiserjäger Regiment. |
| Conclusion |
|---|
|
The Tirolean assault swept the defending infantry out of its positions and captured sixteen Russian cannon. The division command reported that the troops then loudly sang the Imperial anthem, the Kaiser Lied, to celebrate their victory. While that’s likely a bit of embroidery, the attack had helped smash XVII Corps’ ability to intervene in the looming encirclement battle around Komarów. |
