Ottoman collapse (11 jan 1915 ano – 17 jan 1915 ano)

Descrição:

On January 11, after four days of travel, Enver and the German officers reached Erzurum. They had stipulated in their original plan that the same route could be taken by the advancing 3rd Army in two days. The transports dispatched from Constantinople which attempted to land troops and provisions at Trabzon were sunk by a Russian Black Sea squadron and warships.[9] The escorts SMS Goeben and TCG Hamidieh were chased back to the Bosporus.[9]

On January 17, the remnants of the Ottoman forces in the woods outside Sarikamish were collected, which signaled the end of fighting on this front.[6] The Russian right wing cleared the Choruk Valley.
