Because there were too many troops lost in Verdun at that time. At that time, both Germany and France invested a lot of troops, but too few of them came back safely.
It happened in World War I, the battlefield of Verdun. At that time, the French Commander-in-Chief was General El Ghai Fei. He got a report at that time. The report said that General El Ghai Fei had a poor child and was looking at Verdun to strengthen Verdun's defense. This makes General Xia Fei want to laugh. He is the general. How can others teach him? Because according to the war situation at that time, the German offensive was very fierce and sweeping, and it had reached a place more than ten kilometers away from Paris, the capital of France. But the French people showed their fearless spirit and drove the Germans back. Look at Verdun again. It's more than 2 kilometers away from Paris, and the capital is threatened by the enemy. I don't know why I'm still in charge of such a far place.
but unexpectedly, this suggestion is very correct. Because the German Chief of Staff at that time was trying to do something on French soil, and the target was Verdun. To this end, he also secretly moved all the German artillery to Verdun, ready to win Verdun. It may be that there was a mole inside the German army, who informed General Xia Fei, but unfortunately General Xia Fei didn't believe it. So under the full preparation of the German army, a thousand cannons rang in unison, and with other offensive means, Versailles was submerged by German artillery fire. Even so, in the face of being outnumbered, the soldiers stationed in Verdun are still fighting to the death, and the Germans cannot capture the defense line.
General Xia Fei, who got the news, reacted, and a big war broke out. Knowing the importance of Verdun, General Xiafei immediately sent dozens of divisions to reinforce him. So the two sides fought a war in Verdun, and the number of casualties was extremely large.
