Chapitre 774: Invasion of the Lowlands

Lieutenant Herman von Habsburg stood within the ranks of the Second Brigade of the First Corps of the Imperial German Army. The Imperial German Army operated under the modern concept of a Brigade Combat Team. Meaning that each brigade was capable of supporting itself in any conflict. After all, a unit of roughly five thousand German soldiers could defeat most enemy forces in this world. 

A Brigade Combat Team made use of two infantry battalions: a cavalry battalion, an artillery battalion, an engineering battalion, and a support battalion.  Because of this organized structure, the First Corps of the Imperial German Army had dispatched its individual brigades across the Lowlands to secure different objectives.  Currently, the Second Brigade was passing through a small town on the borders of the Duchy of Burgundy.
