In the article, the author discusses basic assumptions of Poland’s western border defence plan in the operational responsibility area of 3rd Army Inspectorate, headed by General Leonard Skierski. Gen. Skierski’s plan was worked out to answer the military threat from the side of Germany on the turn of 1920 and 1921. The plan assumed that Germany would conduct two simultaneous operations in northern direction: one aiming at conquering Pomerania as fast as possible and joining Eastern Prussia in Bydgoszcz - Grudziądz direction, the other - of secondary importance - conducted from Piła - Krzyż area towards Poznań and Gniezno. Due to this, Gen. Skierski’s plan assumed creating, at the moment of war break out, two operational groups, the task of which would be to carry out active defence using the Grudziądz - Chełmno - Toruń - Poznań fortification system and resistance points to the west of these fortifications line. Gen. Skierski’s plan was not implemented. But it became an inspiration to work out the conception basis for Pomerania’s military use in case of war with Germany.
