For a time during the early months of WWI Russia was poised to enter the flat Hungarian plain. Having taken most if not all of the Carpathian Mountain passes and having the Austro-Hungarians on the retreat, Hungary seemed destined to be invaded. In my view it was probably the timely intervention by German troops that saved Hungary. However lets say the troops are delayed a few weeks somehow and the Russians break onto the Hungarian plains? Is that game over for Austria-Hungary? Or could Germany and the Dual Monarchy still salvage the situation?
