This was also where the German Army artillery found themselves puzzled.
How did the French Army artillery precisely locate their targets?
No matter how the German Army artillery changed positions, or reduced shell firing or increased relocation distances, they couldn't escape the bombardment of the French artillery.
The German artillery deployed on the West Bank of the Meuse River comprised 6 artillery battalions instead of the 4 that the US Army assumed.
The reason was that Hutier deemed it necessary to keep the US Army east of the Meuse River.
In previous battles, Hutier was surprised by the combat performance of the US Army, especially since it was their first participation in the war.
If they could fight impressively in their first battle, did it mean they would become more tenacious in the future?
