Germany needed to avoid a two front war.Germany concentrated troops in the west to
quickly defeat the French, but if needed, rushing the French troops by rail to the east to face the Russians.
Germany knew that the Russian technology wasn’t as advance, as the French so they wouldn’t be much of a problem.
