"Memoirs of World War I 4: World Crisis·War on the Eastern Front" is dedicated to the war on the Eastern Front of World War I. It begins by talking about the historical origins of the quarrel between the two major groups before World War I; then details the assassination of the Austrian crown prince and how this incident became the trigger for the war; details the Austrian declaration of war on Serbia, and the subsequent process of the two major groups declaring war on each other and fighting the war on the Eastern Front. Russia's march into East Prussia reduced the pressure on the German army on the west front against France and Britain, and the Russian army initially achieved victory. However, the situation changed after the German army changed its command, and Hindenburg and Ludendorff took over the command of the eastern front. In addition, the Russian army was surrounded and annihilated by the German army due to leaked telecommunications, and was retreated steadily thereafter. Finally, the October Revolution broke out in Russia and it withdrew from the First World War.
