  • Resumen

  • The fortresses around the Belgian City of Liege were fierce, formidable, and frightening structures to behold in the summer of 1914... but they were no match for a new breed of German artillery firepower. In this episode we explore what happened at Liege in the opening days of the Great War and how those events would shape battles, people, and the tide of war itself in the years to come. You’ll learn about the mighty Krupp and Skoda cannons that smashed layers of concrete defense works and how a man named Erich Ludendorff – perhaps one of the most influential figures in the German military during World War One — made an opening name for himself as a fearless, ambitious, and nearly unstoppable force of human willpower at Liege. With the Schlieffen Plan in full swing, get ready to dive into the story of the head to head combat that marked the beginning of the First World War. 

    So what are you waiting for? Fix bayonets!
