"Blizzard"

Żeromski described with such a symbol, almost hopeless fate, which the nation experienced at the turn of the year 1914/1915 And later, through spring and summer. The war has entered for many years. Her defeats weighted especially over the Polish trampled by three imperial armies, doomed to fratricidal bloodshed. German pressure on Warsaw, Russian resistance from the Vistula to the borders of the partition (October-November 1914), Russian offensive up to Krakow, Inhibiting it under Limanowa – These were cataclysms that denied all Polish countries and aspirations. Everyone has failed, who thought, that Providence per Germanos or per moschos will quickly cross the work of the partitions. Three emperors have been thinking about partitions and partitions for now -the service was in a long war, which will destroy all the oppressors. Nearly two million Poles went to hostile armies. Germans and Austrians tugged with the consumption of the Legions threw the country with contributions, The Russians in the reverse kidnapped the population, they burned the estates. NKN fled from Krakow to Vienna, where he was offended by the loving benefactors for faithful service. The role of the Polish weapon in gigantic struggles turned out to be faint, Although it was a survival for the nation – often noble, always painful. Piłsudski with his first brigade Bloody buoys fought at Łowczówek (22 XII), The efforts of the second brigade were even bloody (Haller, Januszajtisa) near Molotków (24 X 1914 r.) and in the Carpathians, where they were told to repel the Russian offensive to Hungary in winter. This was the difference between brigades, that the second was patiently and sacrificing, what NKN and AOK told her to her, when the first, with contempt, she was singing a song to the nation, From then on, a saint for the whole of Piłsudczyzna: "We don't need to recognize from you", "We first brigade, Strzelecka cluster, We threw our lives at the stake, on the stake, on the stake ".

On the opposite side of the front, Zygmunt Balicki and Wiktor Jaroński tried to create a similar Legion, But the Russian command rejected their offers. Similar similar attempts were not much more good luck.

In general, they did not approve of them, rightly guessing with Mikołaj Mikołajewicz himself, insincerity and reluctance to Poles. How when it happened [from V-X 1915R.] to specify the large -scale announcements at conferences of mutual politicians, tsarist ministers (Szczegłowitow, Makłakow, President of the Akimow Senate) They replied Dmowski's persuasion, Ignacy Szebeka and In. not a Slavic tone at all. Moments of elation passed, When the Cracovians of Legionnaires, And Warsaw's Siberian regimes threw flowers at their feet. Great War of Nations, about which Mickiewicz prayed, For the first year she brought disappointment to everyone. The orientations were not so much from the hope of a better tomorrow, how much necessity for some, from the feeling of pain and retaliation in others. Germans and Austrians worked for Dmowski, Russians for Piłsudski.
