Description

After the fighting in Rossignol, the French Colonial Corps rapidly retreated, closely pursued by the forces of the German 6th Corps. In order to cover the retreat of its
units, a rear guard was positioned for ambush in the village of Olizysur- Chiers, which opened fire on the enemy, causing the latter to suffer heavy losses.
