>Before that, they just died
Loss rates in wars before WWI were like 5% or lower with desertion rates often exceeding 70-80%. Nobles on the other hand couldn't desert and actually made up a majority of the losses as their family would lose all social standing if the fucked off, whereas the average soldier could just fuck off into the next bushes and go home if he didn't like getting shot at.
That stupid grave was given in exchange for turning war from a noisier sumemr camp into a slice of literal hell on earth, then sending people in with no regard how many got pasted while the nobles were chilling out in the backline bunkers with Champagne and Caviar instead of commanding from the front as before. Its an insult.
