Lego WW1 battle of Neuve Chapelle (1915)

Indian Brith Army took part in this bloody offensive.
The Battle of Neuve Chapelle (10-13 March 1915) took place in the First World War in the Artois region of France. The attack was intended to cause a rupture in the German lines, which would then be exploited with a rush to the Aubers Ridge and possibly Lille. A French assault at Vimy Ridge on the Artois plateau was also planned to threaten the road, rail and canal junctions at La Bassée from the south as the British attacked from the north. The British attackers broke through German defences in a salient at the village of Neuve-Chapelle but the success could not be exploited.
On the outbreak of war, the Indian Army had 150,000 trained men and the Indian Government offered the services of two cavalry and two infantry divisions for service overseas. The force known as Indian Expeditionary Force A was under the command of General Sir James Willcocks. Force A was attached to the British Expeditionary Force and the four divisions were formed into two army corps: an infantry Indian Corps and the Indian Cavalry Corps.
Upon arrival in Marseilles on 30 September 1914, only six weeks after the declaration of war, they were moved to the Ypres Salient and took part in the Battle of La Bassée in October 1914. In March 1915, the 7th (Meerut) Division was chosen to lead the assault in the Battle of Neuve Chapelle. The Expeditionary Force was hampered by a lack of familiarity with new equipment, only being issued Lee-Enfield rifles on their arrival in France and they had almost no artillery, relying on support from their neighbouring corps when in the front line. They were not accustomed to the continental weather and were poorly equipped to resist the cold, leading to low morale which was further compounded by the reserve system, whereby reinforcements were drafted in from any regiment and had no affiliation to their new units.
After the big losses the infantry divisions were finally withdrawn to Mesopotamia in October 1915, when they were replaced by the new British divisions of Kitchener's Army

[@shreyanshsrivastava3700]

Thank you for this. The history books overlook the sacrifices of Indian soldiers during WW1. Sikhs were and still are the pride of our Indian forces. I hope this video reaches to millions of viewers and they recognize it. Thanks again for your hardwork❤

@idk.man. Keep in mind some Indians are still loyal to the British or are even of British descent.

[@jimbostopmo4513]

Agreed

[@dragonforge4411]

Its very rude how some British soldiers treat out siders like low lifes, but they should remember how the Tibetans nearly wipe out their troops that they have to sign a treaty with them also hire them as mercenary's, also they where out matched by the Zulus. Never unestimate ur enemys or allies, they may look like u can take them on, but they can beat u with their own tactics and knowledge.

Such enormous losses to such brave men. But a victory was achieved because of the cost. This story was shown very well. Superb. The blood and even that mans guts.🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆

[@LCMhistory]

Did my best to show the tragedy of war and brave soldiers

[@michimatsch5862]

A victory? Yes. But it ultimately achieved nothing. Which is sadly almost all the battles in WWI.

[@LCMhistory]

@@michimatsch5862 To be honest it's even hard to call a victory. Indian soldiers really managed to capture the first line of the german defence. But after that offensive just collapsed. Chaos, awful communication, wrong recon info, and final point - artillery ran out of ammo and there wasnt any support any more. So it was just a slaughter fpr nothing... which is really was the same at most of ww1 battles

[@michimatsch5862]

@@LCMhistory yikes. And all of them where always told that they would make the difference, that their sacrifice would win the day, that they would be heroes. But they all wound up as just another statistic.

[@jake7151]

The Indian British army needs to be in more western films set during the world wars. They perhaps had the most civilian casualties during ww2 mainly due to the famine that they suffered while they exported their food to Britain during the blitz.

[@madgavin7568]

Correct me if I'm wrong but other than The Bridge on the River Kwai I don't think there's ever been a movie made about the Burma campaign in WW2.

[@Yourlocalwordrobe]

video as always was great quality but i have a question have you considered using cobi for vehicles? from what i heard they are alot cheaper then brickmania (atleast i think it iss) and higher quality

[@LCMhistory]

The biggest problem with Cobi is the scale. Brickmania is like 1:35, Cobi is abput 1:30 and the best is like 1:40-1:43. So its a bit weird when a small soldier is standing near the giant tank which actually in real life was pretty small. So I use Cobi but not in a big numbers

There were cool specials effects, which are really better then in animation of Khalkin Gol and were such as in Iraq war's 10 part 👍 And how to be without critic?)
